KILL-STREAKS!?! :(

Post » Sun May 23, 2010 8:08 pm

So while watching the new MP demos and footage that has been released I found kill-streaks... while watching the video the player gets a "Radar Uplink" Probably lets you know where the enemy is, then he gets a "Alien Gunship" now that just speaks for itself, but at the end of the video you see what the gun ship is (probably) because some form of ship comes in and kill the player, hope this is not a game breaker (most likely wont be) like MW2 (we don't like to talk about that game do we?)

I was wondering what the gunship was at the end of the video from gamescom. if it is a killstreak i hope it is not like mw2. I did read somewhere that you get stuff for doing outstanding kills, like a long distance headshot with a hand gun

Probably for console gamers they may have them. Or just on smaller maps, hopefully on bigger maps and PC they won't have them seeing people can fly and use tanks themselves. If they do add them I'm hoping it won't be the type that does all the killing for you.

I hope you can turn them on and off cuz I enjoy where you have to earn your kills the old fashion way, which is getting them your self, and if they are in all the time I hope they are like what Ken-Jong-Le just said that you have to control them yourself not just let it go around getting kills while you sit in a corner

Another thing I would not want to see was how in MW2 you could get more kill-streaks using kill-streaks

true but I think crysis 2 will blow black ops out of the water, then use Maximum Strength to toss it back into the water, but I will still buy Black ops

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.

I hope that with Killstreaks, we can atleast pilot the aircraft and vehicles ourselves, instead of the Call of Duty way of having some bot do all the killing for you, and you just sit in a corner and relax and get a tactical nuke. -.-

Crytek will have to be very careful about balancing killsteaks. While they can be fun, they can also be very overpowering and empty out a server.

GUUYS! TIME TO HAPPYFACE!

The alien thing drops a pod that you capture for points, kinda like hq in mw2, no killstreaks so far, it's part of the gamemode!

Those aren't killstreak rewards, thay are dog-tag rewards. When you headshot someone they drop a dog-tag that gives you increased radar range or the ability to see bullet trails from enemy fire.
It says so in this article at IGN:

Whoa, calm down there, dont give yourself a tumor :P
The MP looks pretty sweet. Classes add more depth and gameplay to the multiplayer and add incentive to play more.
And you can still do pretty much all that you could do in powerstruggle in crysis 2s MP.

It just looked a bit generic to me so far, sure it's pretty for the consoles too, but the pc version will just be the same with some extra shaders and lighting, what happened to interactivity with the environment? can i shoot a blow a hole in a wall for example? it's just the kind of thing i'd expect from the sequel to such an amazing game like crysis *sigh*

Anyways, do we ever get to use real nanosuits? since the guys in the video dropped like flies. I'd rather have gameplay that involves taking a few shots to down a guy than insta frag epic pacman.

Sorry if i don't seem excited, but i guess i just expected more, but good job so far! But it just doesn't really motivate me to want to jump into multiplayer.

Hey! Maybe you could show us what the PC version really looks like and that might actually make me interested, since the more i see the crappy xbox graphics (no offense, they're amazing for the platform though) the less i want to even bother with crysis 2.
