spaceelf Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 I am not attacking the gameplay. I thought Crackdown 2 was fun. I just think it needed a lot more personality. Cause there wasn't any. The audio logs seemed like a halfassed attempt to inject some. I already pointed out the difference. When you take down a Cell group, you say "Yay. Next?" When you took down a leader, you knew how the world had improved through your actions. I would love to see a 3, but I dread the day it comes out as my expectations for the series have bottomed out.

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted July 29, 2010 Veteran Share Posted July 29, 2010 Yeah I wouldn't hold your hopes up for a great story in the third. The series strong point is random, addictive, destructive fun.

spaceelf Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 I played through the first one over five times. Maybe over ten times. I have no idea. I doubt I'll play this one again at all.

Unrealistic Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 I played through the first one over five times. Maybe over ten times. I have no idea. I doubt I'll play this one again at all. Same. And this is why it is not a better game than the first.

neoadorable Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 it's a terrible game period, i gave up and gave my copy to a friend after about five hours in. too hard, too repetitive, and little of the charm of the original. for all their attempts at story it actually has less of a tale to tell than the first. if i want to run around beating up random crazies while fighting insane odds, then Prototype's been out for over a year and is a much more intelligent release, at that.

Hedon Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 snipped spoiler If everything in the game had just been named "AI number ######" it would've had just as much personality. Please learn to use spoiler tags. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/911896-crackdown-2-discussion/page/8/#findComment-592989150 Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceelf Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 That qualifies as a spoiler? Huh. Alrighty. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/911896-crackdown-2-discussion/page/8/#findComment-592989298 Share on other sites More sharing options...

spaceelf Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 You told everyone the ending :p There was not enough detail in that statement to qualify IMO. Hell, there wasn't much of an ending either.

spaceelf Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Apparently. I'll keep that in mind I guess, I'm no fan of spoilers. Just didn't realize that was going to qualify.

Unrealistic Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 If the game had an actual story, it would have been a minor spoiler, but since there is practically nothing of a story, I guess it is a big spoiler lol.

____ Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 The only surprise in the story of the game is when you get to the point where you think the story is half over it's actually entirely over.

I thought that was the point where you thought there might actually be a story, yeah.
