crysis 2

crysis2It is the development to the 2007 video game Crysis and its comparable development game, Crysis Warhead.The narrative was written by author Richard Morgan.Another science fiction author, Peter Watts, was also consulted and wrote a novel adaptation of the game. It is the first game to showcase the CryEngine 3 game engine.
Crytek wanted to avoid making another game set in a jungle environment, as were Far Cry and Crysis; New York City has been dubbed an "urban jungle". Players control "Alcatraz", a Force Recon Marine; the successor to "Nomad" – the main protagonist from the first game. As "Alcatraz", players gain ownership of the Nanosuit 2 from Army Delta Force officer, Prophet, who returns from the original Crysis. Crynet Systems has been hunting Prophet to retrieve the suit, inadvertently pursuing Alcatraz, believing he is Prophet.

Crytek has stated their intention to surpass the original game graphically and gameplay-wise, and have contradictorally claimed that combat in the game will be "catastrophically beautiful". Crytek has teased the redesigned Nanosuit, called the "Nanosuit 2" in an advertising brochure, created by the fictional Crynet Systems company, the creators of the first Nanosuit.The new Nanosuit supports new and upgraded features. PC Gamer magazine published a preview of Crysis 2, showing a park and a destroyed city street with an alien device in the centre. Crytek confirmed to CVG that Crysis 2 will not use EA's Online Pass system. Alcatraz meets up with Gould only to be met with initial hostility until the suit plays Prophet's last recorded message.

Gould and Alcatraz commit to further scans at a Crynet base to find out that Alcatraz was mortally wounded when Prophet rescued him, and that the nano-suit was Alcatraz's only hope for survival. The revelation is cut short when CELL forces led by Tara Strickland, daughter of U.S. Marine Corps Major Strickland from the first game, ambush Alcatraz and Gould.

The suit gets rebooted by Crynet director Jacob Hargreave. The suit, before rebooting again, states assimilation complete, and Prophets DNA is now "assimilated" into Alcatraz. Alcatraz, climbing out of the crater and speaking for the first time in the game responding,"They call me.....Prophet", alluding the fact that Prophet is now reborn within the nanosuit.

Crysis 2 is the sequel to 2007's Crysis which was lauded for its impressive visuals. It is the first game using the new engine CryEngine 3. Crytek has claimed that Crysis 2 contains the best graphics in the history of video games. Nathan Camarillo said that Crysis 2 has 'best graphics you've ever seen'. The studio also reckons Crysis 2 offers a "complete gaming experience like no other". Crytek boss Cevat Yerli has claimed that the enemy AI in Crysis 2 is the most sophisticated in video game history.

In January 2011, Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli, responded with saying that no other engine could have delivered Crysis 2 and that CryEngine 3 could handle "pretty much any other game", but claimed that its rivals Epic Games’s Unreal Engine could not handle Crysis 2.
