Prototype 2

Started by BloodRain5 pages

Uppercutting a helicopter... yes.. yes.

New feature; now able to let go of people when you grab them.... didnt say a it was a major feature.

YouTube video So they finally puts some colors other than Black, Red and Brown. Everything is more life like now.

I never played the first Prototype since I ended up buying Infamous after reading mass reviews.

I have both Infamous games which I love to play, and a lot of people have told me that while Prototype, while inferior to Infamous, doesn't suck.

Do you guys think that I would enjoy the first Prototype?

I liked the story and gameplay much more than inFamous.

For sure, rent prototype. If you have gamefly.

The "parkour" and movement in Prototype are leagues better than inFamous. It's like night and day. You actually feel super-powered in Prototype...like greatly superpowered.

inFamous 2 does a bit better to make you seem more superpowerful. It's still not the same. I mean...when you unlock that beastly tank-like armor in prototype, have the surround system going, listening to his stomps and slicing through tanks like they are styrofoam...it's just awesome.

The story in Prototype completely kicks aaaasss. I want it made into a movie. It's that good. Def a 9 in the story department. It DOES get repetitive. But just running around the city can be satisfying.

RENT EEEET man.

I agree with the above, i feel so weak in Infamous. Its like hes not much stronger than a normal human other than the fact he has sparks from his fingers, which tbh are not even as interesting as Mercers varied combos of weapons and armours.

I just might have to see how Prototype is then. Thanks for the input.

Ditto. I'm preordering the new one

That video was VERY Hulk - UD. XD

Might consider getting both 1 and 2 after watching that. 🙂

Can't wait for this game.

Really? Wow, I felt the exact opposite. I thought the story was much better for Infamous. And I agree that you feel weaker in Infamous, but I believe that makes it better since it actually made the game somewhat difficult. Prototype was much too easy because you could pretty much kill everything with ease and restoring health was way too abundant. I'm hoping they also change the monotony of the missions in the new installation.

You may be more skilled than some gamers, though. I felt the game, set on normal difficulty, had plenty of deaths. It was just enough, too. Hard was too hard. Easy was too easy. Normal was..well..normal.

If you're really good gaming, it may come easier to you. I recomend setting it to hard. With 3 swipes the RE type claw dudes (forget their names), you die. Fighting 2 is almost impossible without using the environment early on in the game. Once you get upgraded..you SHOULD kill stuff with ease because you've literally evolved as a being.

But the story in inFamous was weak, imo. It was almost cliched. Both were entertaining, but I found Prototype's to be on such a high level that it was one of the best game stories I've experienced in years...maybe even since the N64/PC days of my gaming life. That's how good it was to me (it was better than my first play through on KOTOR...and I really liked KOTOR's story...I didn't have it spoiled so it was a nice suprise to find out I was Revan.)

I doubt I'm more skilled lol. I have read another post from you where you found New Vegas to be easy. I personally found that game to be rather difficult (especially the Deathclaws). Maybe it's just platformers that I'm good at 😄 I can see your point, it's just the other way around for me. I also found the Mercer to be kind of a tool as well. I know that Cole is when he is evil, but I usually play the good guy so Cole was more likable to me.

Probably because the first Prototype was the exact same game as Hulk UD. I mean it even had "Critical Mass".

Let's all hope it doesn't suck as much as the 1st one.

Lol...It wasn't that bad. I would give it a 7 out of 10. I just found the Infamous game to be the better non DC/Marvel superhero game.

Has anybody read the Prototype books that DC put out?

Considering that Hulk UD was the best superhero game out, I don't see how that can negatively affect my attitude towards prototype. I've started playing the first one, and its not that bad. 😛

I loved Hulk UD as well, but I found Prototype to be a bore. The first half of the game is fun but the second half becomes a constant grind fest of helicopter after helicopeter coming after you.

To get past the deathclaws at less than level 7 like I did...

Get a good gun with nice enough ammo (I actually killed most of them with the "That Gun" from Blade Runner and with the "infinite energy" rifle).

Hide up on the cliff/rocks where they can't get you and snipe them all out. It will take you hundreds to thousands of shots, however...which can be tedious. But I took them all out. (Died a few times trying to get to the right spot.) Save often because you will die a lot until you get a "good" spot. You will have to, at times, run down and trick them to follow you so you can snipe them out. Deathclaws were the most broken enemies in the game when you were at early levels. Too strong, imo. Later in the game...even at max levels, they can quickly kill you if there are more than one. I took the "legendary deathclaw" run very slowly and did not die once because of that.

And it's amazing to see how different two people that have very similar gaming interests, can really be: we both played NV, Prototype, and inFamous...yet we have two totally different perspectives on Cole and Mercer.

I super duper look forward to this game. I'm a bit irritated that it is going to take so long to come out, actually.

As DDM said, Deathclaws can't climb rocks.

They become fairly easy when you know that. Though that doesn't matter when you kill 50 of them and the bloody Enclave armor doesn't spawn. >_>
