So I just had a game of Crysis online before, playing a bit, and I found myself bored.

Then I started thinking how huge the maps are (Like mega huge) then I seen my BF2 CD case.. I realized how similar Crysis online is to BF2.

the gameplay can either be slow or fast, And it has the same "Stand in a certain area to raise a flag and cap a zone to spawn in" mechanic.

The only real difference is that you can capture energy generator buildings, certain buildings allow you to buy tanks and what not.

but a few of the maps seems oh so close to BF2, only difference is that you buy your weapons and add-ons for them. :s

Anyone agree with me?


Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.

I looked at one screenshot of Crysis and thought "FarCry Clone!"

SP offers pretty much nothing innovative. Its just... well, a shooter. Nothing special about it.

Um, ya its just another BF clone, this has all been done before. SP depressed me, the only good part about it? If EA is using the Crytek engine for Tiberium, atleast you'll be able to drive vechs 3rd person while shotting the turret aswell.


MP sucks HARD, so boring. BUT there was 1 thing I did find fun. 1 server I joined was running that battleship map, but it wasn't like an objective game, it was deathmatch, and it was fun. Haven't been able to find a DM server since Huh I did like DM tho. Tell Me

Yeah I agree with Ryu.

Crysis' artstyle is exactly like Farcry, and its online is much like Battlefield. It got boring pretty fast.

Single player and its mod tools are good though.

Unless EA listens to the community they are going to making the same mistake again. If a Renegade 2 would come with C&C Mode, then it would blow away all those games that are all milked out.

Unfortunately I have to agree with Sir_Kane.

Your nano suit has 4 abilities, Maximum Strength, Armour, Speed and Stealth (as well as fully customizing your weapons), Everything you use can either help or hamper you.

Maximum strength reduces the amount of recoil you gain from your weapon and makes you jump 3 times higher and super melee punch! as well as being able to grab Koreans by the neck and use them as armour / throwing them at the other enemy's.

Speed makes you run / swim alot faster and is good for quickly getting out of sticky situations.

Armour is good for taking impact from high drops that could kill you / body armour.

stealth for sneaking, Like I said, Use one of them at the wrong situation and you're fucked.

I think it's SP is awesome, I mean, every game has some sort of suit (HEV Suit - Half-Life, Halo's suit, etc) but Crysis actually makes good use of it. ;p

Have they invented a new type of marijuana to smoke, or what?

Seriously, wtf. I don't know how much multiplayer you played but you must not have been paying attention.

VOn a side note I'd like to say something.

I'm not sure how many of you have played Crysis (but I think westy did,) but you would be appalled how similar it's multiplayer "Power Play" mode is to C&C mode.

Sure it's not that Arcadey. You capture buildings instead of destroy them, each team has an HQ with automated defenses that you have to destroy to win. Throughout the map there are capturable Bunkers, War factories, Air pads and naval facilities. Bunkers function essentially like barracks. You can only spawn in bunkers (or a reinforcement truck buyable from the War Factory) and you can purchase things like equipment, weapons and customized loadouts in both.

War factories make land vehicles, Air pads and naval facilities are quite obvious.

Not to mention the fact it's fucking fun. I can safely say if Tiberium's multiplayer is anything like Crysis we've got a bit of epic win. It kicks the shit out of BF2/2142.

(Forgot to mention that there is even power plants! You can only capture them though ;9)



yeah

That would be all fun and games if the maps weren't so huge.

seriously.. Even with Maximum Speed it's too long. Sad

I'm sorta 50/50 on it's online mode, If the maps were smaller, and you had a much better source of income (maybe 200P every 15 minutes?) It would be ok, But as it is now.. gah, I can't stand it.

Just punch people. That gives way more prestige points than killing them with guns.

Did that to the Crytek staff in their server during the MP beta all the time.

Crysis online is like Battlefield?!

You are talking about Power Struggle... right?!

I don't think it is anything like Battlefield. What it is is C&C mode. (Well that is what I deduced from the training video)

You have different structures that provide different functions. The war factory makes vehicles, the command center is the heart of the base and there are outposts that give you an edge on the battlefield.

If anything it is C&C mode and Conquest mode merged into one awesome battle.

*Note I haven't played it myself yet, the Singleplayer is just so awesome. I am in the middle of beating it a second time on Delta.)

I played during the beta phase of crysis. I enjoyed a lot the power struggle mode on the unique map we had. I think a cnc mod on this game would be the best thing ever.

And it's not some new shooter. It makes all current games looking gay. (I have call of duty 4, Moh Airborne, Unreal 3... not a single game there is close to the beauty of crysis.)

I got both Crysis and CoD4 for Christmas. I beat CoD4 and then went onto Crysis.

I now am wanting to return CoD4 because of how exponentially better Crysis is. In multiplayer alone. (I hate the CoD4 multiplayer)

It doesn't even work, because it requires hundreds of dollars of cards and crap.

Crysis wouldn't work for me unless I put the shaders on high, or else the game gets all glitchy and black colored.
