Crysis 2 Trailer Talks Multiplayer Progression

It seems that almost every shooter's multiplayer mode hides its goodies behind persistent progression nowadays and Crysis 2 is no exception. The progression in Crytek's shooter is detailed in a lengthy new trailer, focusing on nanosuit unlocks.

Unlockable upgrades and modules covered range from small boosts, such as faster stealth transitions, to larger bonuses, like the mighty 'air stomp' attack. According to the trailer, it'll take players around sixty hours to reach the top of the ranking classes.

Crysis 2 is due out for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on March 22. A multiplayer demo was briefly available to Xbox Live Gold members and is due on PC before launch.

Am I the only one who's terribly unexited about this game? Everything looks generic, nothing really seems new or pushes my interest. The annoying infomercial voice in the ad didnt help either.

Anyway, I'll probably pass this or wait for a price drop, looking forward to Brink though!

Am I the only one thinks the voiceover sounds like a bad impression of The Stranger in The Big Lebowski?

And seriously, is this pitch being targeted at elementary schoolers?

Fuck that shit. That's the #1 emergent "feature" of these last 2/3 years that pisses me off.. I can enjoy MMOs, but if I want to enjoy all the downsides of an MMO I'll go play a goddamn MMO, not an FPS. I play FPSes for instant enjoyment..

Only 60 hours to reach max rank? BF2 took me like 200 just to get all of the unlocks and I was about half way to the top rank. Games seem to just be pushed out then last just long enough for the next one.

Smart move by Crytek to be honest. They are learning that Multiplayer games aren't pirated as much so this is their chance to keep sales. I don't really have an actual opinion on their game since I haven't played the demo and I'm not really interested in trying it, but I'm pretty sure that's their motive for the large Multiplayer emphasis.

Why does every HUD or U.I have a green tinge ?
Green screens died in the 80's and yet the hue lingers !

I agree with some of the other remarks - it's not looking terribly intriguing or terribly unique. The fact that it's being made for consoles first means that as more PC-centric gamer, I'm less confident that I'll like the PC version. :(

Can't wait for Brink though...now THAT'S a game that looks insane. And of course Battlefield 3 is a must-buy on release day. ;)
