Warface footage illustrates Crysis 2, Call of Duty influence

Crysis 2's multiplayer was disappointing for me. They took away everything that was awesome about Crysis' multiplayer and replaced it with CoD elements that, should you desire them, were better in CoD

This looks intriguing, what systems will it be available for?

AngelFNV PC only.

That is a shame, I will be waiting until they will make it for PS3.

I can't wait for home consoles to feature graphics like these. The next generation of hardware couldn't come sooner!

AngelFNV It's an MMO, so that's unlikely.

Xenctuary Same...then we'll have less unimpressive ports.

$2,000 machine so you can run the terribly optimized ports of ugly games, it's the high life.

Crafter Please don't continue to spread that myth around. It deters people needlessly.

chautemoc Myth? lol? While it's certainly hyberbole, I'm far from incorrect and you certainly should know as much.

$600 PC can run anything out now flawlessly.. $2000 would get you something that would run any game for the next 5-10 years flawlessly. It really is a myth that PC gaming is extortionately expensive.. PC games for instance are $20-$30 cheaper than their Console counterparts. We pay a bit more in hardware but save big time on the games for it..

No, it's actually more like: $600 machine so you can play the Doom series, and don't even try to tell me that isn't worth it.

you have the $2000 pc because you're an enthusiast. you love pc gaming. but then a lot of the games that come out are bad ports. $600 would be fine for most 'real' pc games but a new release similar to how gta4 was? good luck. I'm not saying you need to sell your car to enjoy the benefits of pc gaming but it isn't as good as it should be.

^ homeboy, list one console port in recent memory as unforgiving as GTA4. cant do it. and GTA4 PC mods? fuggedaboutit.

but youre right about a lot of ports being not quite what they should be. but then again, a $600 PC can play them all well (as long as you know how to buy PC gaming parts). anyway, the argument is old hat, an old horse beaten to death already. if you cant play console ports on an a cheapo PC, youre doing wrong.


anyhow, warface looks decent. if free to play, ill give it a shot.

kinda just want a MMOFPS like stalker. huge perpetual traditional stalker world (wildlife, NPCs, etc), players choose a faction early on, squads are encouraged but not required, structures and large set pieces can be captured like BF in effect crafting faction territory, and the cool part - at least to me - there is no story at first, the story is developed over time by the developers based on player action, like where they explore, what they capture, what they discover, what faction controls what territory... and the developed story is implemented in real time by the developers, meaning they insert new enemies accordingly, open new buildings accordingly, etc.

play for a week, your faction controls a large area of abandoned labs for example, your faction has defended the area for a week. after that week the devs essentially set in motion a handful of elaborate quests for your faction based off the labs you hold. - you dont play for a week - you come back to play to find your faction has lost the labs to a different faction, and the missions have either been lost or adapted to the happenings of the game world.

have the world be so large and dangerous that tough new areas may even require squads from different factions temporarily teaming up.

you can play as a commander for example and become promoted. do well for long enough in this role, your faction gains perks like special information about the zone. you can set recommend actions for your entire faction based off the special info youve earned. as time goes on the top commanders would grow to be important, and the story would even be built somewhat around their rise to power. assassinations could potentially affect a lot.

ill stop the rant and sorry for the long post. got super side-tracked.

Gee my 600 dollar PC that can run everything on high is doing fine here.
