In game dialogue "****" and its application

Post » Wed Jun 02, 2010 6:26 am

im wondering if I'm thenonly one that got tired of hearing "****" followed by random crap in the dialogue. Every other word had it following it or proceding it. Now I'm not bothered or offended by the swearing. Thats not it. But when it's just thrown in absolutely EVERYWHERE it makes no freaking sense. They just decided every tenth word should be "****" it just makes characters and people sound stupid. Like prophets trailer "invasion **** central" I mean come on!!!!! This used to only for games populated by a bunch of 12yr olds....o wait...nvm

Just go pick up the politically correct / christian version of Crysis 2 where no one swears or loses and no one gets offended...you know....like real life. This just in!! a new study released today shows that 95% of advlts swear and use "****" liberally on a daily basis!! new at 11!..... /sarcasm off

I think **** is pretty much what i would be saying if i saw a big ass alien ship get blown up and crash through an office block building, or if i was getting shot at by a bunch of crazy squid headed aliens.

Dunno bout you.

I am envisioning a potential protagonist whose only dialogue is various applications of "****".

A grenade appears: "****!"
An alien ship (or something else big and nasty) crashes past the player and asplodes: "**** me!"
The player has just walked into an ambush: "Fuuuuuuck.."
Air support arrives in a time of need to asplode many enemies: "**** yeah!"
Friendlies perform an act of stupidity either getting themselves killed or resulting in the player needing to save them: "Dumb ****..."
Getting shot at by multiple hostiles while attempting to make it to cover: "****! ****! ****!"
Multiple Pingers appear: "Sweet merciful mother OF ****!"

Lol i think what the OP meant by the application was that what Serval says seems to be all comical and good for laughs but currently for Crysis 2 everything becomes so srs, The tone of Prophets voice and wotnot lol, I think that because Crysis 1 never used the word to such an extent and in the srs application that this really just aint funny/comical/fitting lol.

For example, In Crysis Warhead - When Psycho goes to the Train Control Tower in one of the missions to control the direction of the cargo train and fails, O'Niel says : "Well.. That was a well executed plan." Psycho replies "**** you" lol that was funny :D

Buut in Crysis 2, You hear Prophet/whoever swearing every 1.5 seconds in every sentence it just doesn't seem very funny and doesn't make much sense lol and yea lol it just makes them sound stupid lol (:

Lol well given the situation in the trailer... I could understand.. but it just seems out of character? lol It's very unpleasant for the ears and you just get tired of them swearing pointlessly which then makes them sound stupid lol ^^"
