The whole suit is honestly supercomputer, semi organic power armor, and nanotech factory embedded as one ultimate electronic warfare device. Each nanites basically enhance the user neuron in such capability that it can be used as absurd computer. Witch each neuron cell can have computing power of 1.5 BIPS, that's like the equivalent of core 2 dual core processor. Then multiply it with the billions of neuron cell human can have.
I loved the Jacob Hargreave character. Such a complex one. A century of patience and planning. On your side, then apparently not, and then when he realises the only chance is Alcatraz back on your side again... but through it all he's focussed on the goal of stopping the CEPH and saving everyone... and in the end it's his work that is the key. Not many video games characters with that kind of depth - and so often overlooked in reviews.
I love the way they pulled off these briefings in crysis 2 and how it was all done through the nanosuit tech. They did it in crysis 3 too but I think it was way more badass in the second one.
Of course it is. The one who composed it was Hanz Zimmer, the one who made the music for Lion King, Inception and the Dark Knight and The Last Samurai.
When playing Crysis 2, I hang my mouth open when the A.I of Nanosuit 2 told about the condition of armour and suddeenly said "Wake up marine! This is no time for dying! Get your ass back in the fight!!!"
I haven't noticed that. I'm glad it does, it means he's still there. At the end he gets erased by the suit for a copy of prophet. (You could almost say the base idea of 2077 was based of this)
@@unitmonkey8012 well it's said he was on life support the entire game and i suspect the voice change at the end was when Alcatraz truly died and the suit put Prophet back on
@@thecommentguy9380 I've done a bit of reading on the series since and the swap was the suit rejecting Alcatraz's consciousness. Between 2 and 3 he fights for control of his body and visits his mother one last time before submitting fully to the suit. If I remember correctly the suit considered his consciousness "broken hardware".
Prophet's construct and voice is bleeding through that statement, Looks like the first instance of Prophet's consciousness emerging through the Nanosuit's AI.
@@Papa_StraightIf only Crysis isn't ruined by the weirdos of Hell and Earth but NOT Heaven that includes SJWs and r/BanVideoGames anti-gamers, this good-old franchise of videogames that originated from the late-2000s can pretty much be better than before. :]
It is April 8th, 2020. As I am writing this comment, COVID-19 cases are increasing at a rapid rate in my state. There have been no riots thankfully, but the intro to this game couldn't be more true.
Funny you say there’s no riots, 2 months later and the US has been rioting for two weeks straight. The coincidences with crysis 2 to real life 2020 are pretty striking...
Thanks for posting this man. Teaching my sister to play this, but maximum edition’s cutscenes have a weird lag on my PC. This video really helped her get invested in the story.
Fun fact, at 9:48 Hargreave tells Alcatraz that the DoD [Pentagon] intend to blow out a flood barrier to flood the City. In the novelisation, Crysis Legion, Alcatraz tells Roger that the Pentagon actually elected to deploy a Tsunami Nuke to flood the City in an attempt to drown the Ceph.
This was the game that introduced me to the fps genre.....hell video games as a whole.....and man I am glad this was what I started with And I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared shitless of the ceph when I saw them for the first time
Ok, I'm understanding the end a bit more. I think Prophet left a shard of him in the suit so I'm thinking that shard of him is the AI. Alcatraz figured out in the end how to get the suit to talk for him but in the voice of Prophet. So I'm thinking Alcatraz is using the suit's AI to be his mouth and words.
Imagine if Barclay's executive officer three years back on the combat zone over LingShan island Major Strickland was alive? Oh shit!!! hahaha Major Strickland: Mike! Put a round through that tunnel entrance and let's get this wagon train moving! Nice shot! Now let's get these babies up that valley and give General Kyong a warm Idaho welcome!
@6:4 'You need to get in there and trash the computer! Hurry!" "Oh, in that building over there? Wait a sec." *Takes rocket launcher* *Aimes at 3rd floor of the building* *Fires* "Wow, that was incredibly easy!"
+Evilfish82 I like Crysis 3 it's a good game but i would say a bit short but still great and bow is fucking awesome in crysis 3 but when i comes to my favorite in series that is defenetly 2 best story pacing and everything
That might be picky, but why is the Chrysler Building missing in the Grand Central Station cutscenes? The Empire State Building is shown despite being 10 blocks away, but the iconic Chrysler, right next to the station, isnt there. At least at the time of the 1st scene it WAS still there ingame. Best seen 13:32. The empty space on the right is where it should be...
Very soon scenario: "This is your new President to all Earth residents! Despite all medical attempts to find the cure for COVID, we have found no viable cure. Isolation and quarantine is no longer an option, shoot to kill discretion is now vested globaly on every suspect of infection!"
@XeNIGHTWOLFeX Prophet and the suit ai kinda combined but not all the way, prophet still retained his own individuality and that is why he didn't like being it cause that AI was in his head. Alcatraz though is completely combined with the suit, his body can't survive without it and mentally they are pretty much the same 'person'. In the end, both the man and the suit are completely intermeshed and function together.
why the BGMs in cut scenes are always better than the official ost of this game except the insertion and epilogue...the problem is that there is no where i can get these cut scenes BGMs
i downloaded the crysis 2 ost off kickasstorents man and they have all the cutscenes pause scenes menu cinematics everything just type in crysis 2 OST and ul find em :0 let me know how you get on
It uses crynet, not your average internet. The company that built the suit has their own satellite, the suit can access it directly. The map, all the data it gets is from satellite. It's not Google map.
@@obi-wankenobi5411 Considering the Nanosuit is built off of alien technology capable of gathering ambient energy sources to power it, and with evolving data-processing systems like a NASA computer going through puberty, I'd say Crynet's satellite sensors only outcompete it with large-scale navigation. I bet the Nanosuit _can sense everything going on in that room, Trust me._ Crynet: _It's too risky... besides your senses aren't that attuned, young apprentice._ Nanosuit: _and yours are?_ Crynet: _Possibly._
Let me clear this up for you; crysis 1 is still one of the high end graphics games, it is still used to benchmark and other than that it is an awesome game.
