If you believed half the posts on this forum you'd think we WERE out to annoy people. :D

LMAO, thats pretty funny. xD Really the multiplayer looks great considering that its 7 months from shipping quality. It does look like it could use some refining to make it less generic, but you have 7 months to do that and our ever-present pessimism to help out! :P

[quote]Yeah, calling in gunships for kill streaks will ruin team instant action...it was fine the way it is in wars...no need to change it too much.

The radar thing is fine and I would even be ok with giving out other rewards that give you a temporary advantage (like more power, more cloak, armor boost, longer infrared vision, faster reload time, and maybe even a gauss rifle or something), but I can't support anything that kills for you. This includes airstrikes.

The only exception would be that you have to fly the ship and you have to aim the airstrike but even that is a bit too much Cod for my liking.[/quote]

Yeah COD really needs to tone down the AI controlled kill streaks

I do however agree with player-controlled killstreaks. Seems like this would sorta balance out what Infinity Ward tried to attempt.

i dont think its a kill streak because i saw a piture of the map (birds eye view) and there was a helipad, so im guessing its a player controled vehicle

I think since this is Team Instant Action, these 'Killstreaks' only work for this kind of mode.

I think these killstreaks are time limited, meaning you have to kill other players in order to maintain your killstreak, in which you earn the prize.

I doubt it will stay within PowerStruggle though, a game like that you wouldn't even get a chance to kill loads of people.

Why don't developers realize that, actually, you know, players DO NOT like such crap? I mean, are the developers not players themselves at all? Have they not seen what utter BS it is? C'mon!

A developer who will make a game that doesn't allow noobtubing, RPGing and BS air attacks on infantry, shall be a rich one...

Crytek did that already, atleast halfway.. weakened all explosives so they where kinda useless, no air attacks in the smaller maps, but it doesn't work because they have no players left, so they decide to try the new ideas that seem to work...

I think Infinity Ward's 1 billion dollar game would like to disagree with you there.

I like the addition of Killstreaks. As long as they are not superpowered and encourage camping. But I will miss the Crysis Wars game style but we can always go back and play it :)

what about a reverse killstreak ,
ex. you have the radar , the alien gun ship and the all other attachments nad than as much as you get kills your attachments and streaks will be taken from ou

4 kills you will nat be able have the alien gun ship ,
6 kills you will not be able to use the attachments
8 kills you will not be able to use the radar ,


those were simple examples , for balance alien gun ship will be used only once a time with a limited time surely.
you will lose streaks but you will gain XP :)

That just makes no sense, because the alien gunships are being called in at the end of the match.

Nothing but a shameless ploy by Crytek to attract CoD players. They pretty much copied this feature directly out of the CoD franchise.

One by one the large game studios succumb to the almighty power of their bottom line.

Crytek, Hostile Syndicate is extremely disappointed in you.

Sorry was gone for a while would have commented sooner but seems the Kill-streak thing is just these "dog tags" which seems to be rewards for cool kills and such, so seems my fears of kill streaks are relieved and what I have seen seems not bad at all. Sorry if my post seemed a little like I was hatting on crytek for tossing this in, I was just to voice concern for as I said we all saw what happened to MW2 and kill-streaks

and for those of you that are worried this will turn into MW2 I hope I can calm you down by saying that with the rewards for dog tags instead of just kills which means campers plans will be foiled HAHAHHA!!! sorry bout that... but I am reassured that the "dog tag rewards" as I am going to call them, wont ruin this game cuz I think they will include weapons to shoot them down.

You get dogtags for a unique kill. As an example, the sliding melee in the footage, or it could be a double headshot. Something unique and skillfull is what gets you dogtags. :)

Guys, correct me if i'm reading this wrong but there is no "calling in an alien gunship"... if you watch this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAtOchLzXM4

Nathan actually discusses the game mode in regards to the gunship and it's actually part of the game mode, not a kill streak reward...

I'm pretty sure I saw "alien gunship" as a call in when I watched one of the videos. It comes up in the same place the radar uplink icon does... :(
