I'm just gonna copy and paste what I said to someone else so I don't gotta type all of it again
well, the biggest problem with crysis 2 was not really anything
until the aliens came in
and then it was boring and frustrating
because, when I was just fighting the CELL people, who are humans, I can be sneaky. which is what I love doing, just like in skyrim and oblivion and fallout, sneaking around is the thing I do
I guess I should say TES and fallout
anyway, the thing about the aliens is that they're big, and armored, and all that good stuff
in crysis 2, the best option for sneak attacks was silenced weapons
and that works perfectly fine against the humans, but the aliens, nooo sir. so the only real option at that point is walking up right behind them and stabbing them. but they're just so big and unpredictable, that's much too risky
so I had to resort to boring normal tactics
eventually I got too bored, so I quit. I never even finished the game
and the multiplayer was really bad
but I can't say anything about the crysis 3 multiplayer
anyway in crysis 3, they gave you this new weapon, the compound bow. to begin with, I mostly thought it was just a dumb gimmick, so I kept using silenced firearms to kill people for most of the game
but a while after I started fighting the aliens, I realized, the bow is actually an incredible weapon. it's totally silent, doesn't make you uncloak, and has four different types of arrows for different purposes, as well as three different settings for the draw strength or whatever
however it is a bit overpowered. because on the strongest draw setting, it does take a second to pull it all the way back, but it kills alien infantry in one shot. not their bigger troops, but still
and also, for the regular arrows, you can retrieve them from the bodies, so it basically has infinite ammo, plus the arrow crates that show up occasionally
it also has explosive arrows, electric arrows, and explosive arrows
one of the explosive types sticks to whatever it hits and explodes after a few seconds, and the other will explode in proximity to a target, so you just have to shoot nearby the person. it's great for getting people hiding in cover. but if it reaches a wall or something first, it'll just explode as soon as it hits
the first one has a bigger explosion too, I think. a stronger one, at least
it still feels sorta, like, cheap, though
idk how to describe that really
it's the same quality that timeshift has, and gears of war
I really like timeshift, and crysis 3 was okay too, so I'm not saying it's a bad thing
it's just there
but I don't have anything to say about the plot. it's just a dumb and cheesy thing to ignore while you have fun killing things
