Forums - Gaming - Anyone with Crysis 2 impressions about the....gameplay?

Yes, gameplay. I actually said it! It might be shocking but, i'm interested in how the actual game is. KZ2 was an amazing looking game but.....the campaign felt abit generic and predictable (shooting is red explosive  barrels is so 1990........ok, that's just wishful thinking). Easily my biggest disappointment of this gen. I haven't been hyped for Crysis 2 but I've sorta had my eye on it.....

 

Anyways, there's been a redonkulous amount of talk about the visuals, and even with the full game out, it seems that finding posts related to the campaign's gameplay is still gonna be hard.

So for those that bought it....how does it compare to, let's say......Killzone 3?  Better? Worse? About the same?I say KZ3 because they've both been released pretty recently and are abit scif-fi'ish. Crysis 2 looks fun cause it seems to have a little more gadgety stuff to mess around with, but KZ3's beta was pretty cool too cause the guns in the game all feel so beastly. After playing Crysis 2's multiplayer demo though, the gunplay felt pretty awesome also.

Besides the campaign, is there some other singleplayer modes to play, like survival/etcetc? I love it when games have stuff like that (Not a CoD guy but, I used to be hooked on Zombies).

So what do you guys think.......good game?!

 

If possible, please leave out any talk of graphics. For serious, aside from what I've played of the demo, I barely know a damn thing about the game itself. Last thing I want is another repeat of KZ2/3, where reviewers spend almost the entire article talking about how "beautiful" the game is, as if I'm suffering from a serious eye condition.

Around the Network

I've talked to two people who said the gameplay is great; the gameplay is the best part of the game. No comment on MP, as of yet.



 

Gameplay is great!

The great thing about it is the amount of options you have to approach every scenario. In my opinion it is way better than the first Crysis as far as gameplay is concerned. The energy bar lasts longer so your powers are actually meaningfull this time! I've finished the single player campaing on ps3 and IMHO it was better than killzone 3 campaing.

 

Other thoughts [spoiler alert]

This is just a thought a had playing, at the last level you're on the sky because the central park was lifted from the ground by the aliens, at this part the graphics were stunning and as it is in a park and relly looks like a forest I thought a Elder's scroll game using cryengine 3 would be freaking amazing!

How long did it take you? See i will get it on pc when it drops to <20 dollars but if the gameplay lenght is solid and is as good as what you say i might get it for 35 from UK. 



Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong

Took me almost 10 hours to finish the game! It is truly amazing, when you think it is over is gives you another thing to do! The scale is almost astonishing...

The thing is I hated the first Crysis... but this one for me at least is one of the best first person shotters ever...
