    My wishes for Crackdown 2!

    I would love to hear that it is in Development

    1. Coop for 4(or more) of my friends (it would be cool if a friend could join you your SP-Missions)
    2. Versus Multiplayer (TD, Deathmatch, CTF etc)
    3. New Vehicles (Aircraft, Boats, Hovercrafts, Jetpacks)
    4. more and varied Submissions
    5. Bigger Islands
    6. Different Enviroments
    7. Bigger Explosions :D
    8. New Weapons
    9. New cool Moves (like in Mirrors Edge :-P)
    10. Character Editor
    11. More Story
    12. adjusted difficulty
    13. a sexy female voice for the speaker :-P

    more will follow ^^


    Share your ideas with me!

    Re: My wishes for Crackdown 2!

    I agree with 9. It would be awesome to wall run, jump off enemies' heads, and pull off other awesome acrobatics. A deeper melee combat system would also be good. Ninja Gaiden 2 is a good example because it manages to have a deep, skillful melee system utilizing only 2 attack buttons. It does this by making a lot of moves context sensitve, (different moves when wall running, airborne, blocking, etc.) Including melee weapons and being able to swing objects you pick up instead of just throwing them would also help make melee more interesting. I'd also like to be able to pick up living enemies. It would be a lot of fun to pick up a gang leader and throw them off a building or into explosive barrels.

    I also agree with 8 to an extent. I don't necessarily think Crackdown needs a larger number of weapons, but that the ones included should all be diverse and useful. It would also be cool if you could modify agency weapons when you level up your firearms skill.

    One improvement I'd like that the OP didn't mention is better enemy AI. It'd also be awesome if there were some enemies with the same strength and agility as an agent, who'll chase you across buildings or even throw vehicles at you.

    Re: My wishes for Crackdown 2!

    4 player co-op may not work. a lot of matches lag enough as it is with just 2 player. and these days what ever company makes games, theres always lag isssues. jetpacks wont be necessary because well...you can jump high enough as it is (plus why have jetpacks when you have aircrafts right?) i'd love to see an agency bike, that would be sweet to see. different environments....i dunno. i mean pacific city did have quite a diverse environment. i guess it depends on what your hoping to see in terms of ''difference''.
    bigger explosions, yeah i'd agree with that fully. and maybe some damage physics (also a bit more other physics, water for example) more story would be quite good. but to be fair i'm not entirely sure there's even going to be a crackdown 2 tbh. depends on what the developers can think of after crackdown. verses....i'm still pondering about that. same goes for a combat system, to me kicking *** so that they go flying (keys to the city) was fun enough. i dont think i simple game like crackdown really needs anything that fancy, unless you want crackdown to serious up?


    if anything if they don't make a crackdown 2, i hope they bring out more downloadable content. that would be great im my books.

    Re: My wishes for Crackdown 2!

    I completely agree with everything there!

    Also, I think that more extreme and brutal close combat moves should be availible for higher skilled agents. For example, I'd love to rip the arms off a gang member, then use them as weapons to whack him round the face with, then kick him through a glass window! Oh yeah, lots more destructible elements, such as glass, walls, etc.

    Fingers crossed for a Crackdown 2!

    Re: My wishes for Crackdown 2!


    1. 4+ Co-op                        Agreed, would be awesome!
    2. Versus Multiplayer (TD, Deathmatch, CTF etc)        There already is "Rocket Tag" and "Stockpile", so I don't want DM / CtF
    3. New Vehicles (Aircraft, Boats, Hovercrafts, Jetpacks)      Please NO! It's a parkour game, so these types of vehicles would take away from that.
    4. more and varied Submissions             Agreed
    5. Bigger Islands          Bigger ... no need, but more islands would be nice
    6. Different Enviroments                       Agreed
    7. Bigger Explosions :D                   Bigger? If you know how to do it, they are already huge! So, no need to make em any bigger IMHO
    8. New Weapons                   Nah, no need. The DLC added some new nice ones
    9. New cool Moves (like in Mirrors Edge :-P)                Don't get what you mean
    10. Character Editor        Would be nice, but no real need, and would be complicated to do with the different stages of evolving the character's abilities. I like the varierty of characters already
    11. More Story                Ya ... hence a sequel
    12. adjusted difficulty       There are already 3 difficulty settings, 3 is enough.
    13. a sexy female voice for the speaker :-P The option to switch between male / female voice would be cool

    All I really want is:

    • 4+ player LIVE co-op
    • Longer story
    • Jump-in / Jump-out LIVE play without having to go back to the Main Menu
    • Sharing abilities temporarily with your co-op partner to for example, help them reach a ledge they can't at that moment or share your strength. I read this was part of the original design (which is what initially caught my attention about the game) but I guess it got cut, oh well, hope it's in the sequel.

    I will buy the sequel regardless, but give me those 4 things, and I will be VERY happy!

    have you been panda-raped?

    Re: My wishes for Crackdown 2!


    1. 4+ Co-op

    Could be great, definitely would need to fix those connections though, or provide a latency filter for those with faster connections.

    2. Versus Multiplayer (TD, Deathmatch, CTF etc)       

      Focus on Co-op!  This game was founded on co-op, I think that shifting attention to versus would hinder the other functions of the game.  If the can add it in with extra time... sure, if not, work on it later as DLC or something, I just want me some co-op!

    3. New Vehicles (Aircraft, Boats, Hovercrafts, Jetpacks)

    I'm gonna have to agree with Lanhoj here.  Keep the hell away from Aircrafts and that fancy crap.  Boats... sure... but all that other crap should stay out of a game like Crackdown.     

    4. more and varied Submissions          

    Could be good.

    5. Bigger Islands       

    I actually liked the size that they had in Crackdown, as a matter of fact, I thought it was more the sufficient.  I think maybe, delving a bit into your 6th point, that different environments could help give the islands or territories a bigger "feel". 

    6. Different Enviroments

    Above.

    7. Bigger Explosions :D

    I think they were good where they were, plus any bigger then that in 4 player co-op and you are gonna start hitting some major dips in FPS for online play, not to mention possible network drops/lag time.

    8. New Weapons


    I agree, or at least use some of the DLC guns from the original.  I loved that harpoon gun :)

    9. New cool Moves (like in Mirrors Edge :-P)               

    Like Prototype?  Nah, CD characters are bad asses.  Why do fancy flips over cars and walls when you can just tank  your way through everything.  I would prefer my manly super-cop figure who choses not to do balerina-style flips over everything.

    10. Character Editor 

    What  Lanhoj said, except get rid of that wierd tribal tatoos over everyones faces...  That crap made no sense and felt alien from the theme of the game.  Maybe one or two characters, but half of those characters in CD1 had that crap all over their faces by the end of the game.  Also, maybe you can choose your suit.  I think the same suit for every character felt a little bland to me.  Add some spice and allow for a choice between a couple of suits that have varying evolutions like in CD1.

    11. More Story             

    Eh... it isn't an RPG.  Just focus on the combat and make it fun.  Maybe a little twist or going beyond that same storyline of killing of gangs, maybe add some corruption and intrigue in there would spice things up. 

    12. adjusted difficulty


    What Lanhoj said.


    13. a sexy female voice for the speaker :-P

    No, plus it sound like the original voice actor for "the voice" was already cast in the trailer.



    What I really want is:

    • Good quality online co-op, fix the issue with bad connections!
    • Maybe a little variety in the missions, outside of just killing gang leaders
    • Agility Orbs and Hidden Orbs!
    • Same style of character and skill evolution/progression
    • A new mode for co-op play, maybe the introduction of a Horde-style game (from GoW2), where survival or timed challenges against enemy AI are increased gradually per challenge or round
    • KEYS TO THE CITY (most fun thing to do in the game, in my opinion)

    Re: My wishes for Crackdown 2!

    i agreewith everything, but lets add some stuff.

    1) parkour of some kind that seems more natural
    2) splitscreen if possible
    3)customization
    4)better aiming
    5)cutscenes
    6) geo-mod 2.0 technology (aka the red faction guerrilla engine)
