SPOILER WARNING: CRYSIS 2: WALKTHROUGH for ROAD RAGE (Part 1)
After the Ceph attacked and sunk the submarine, Alcatraz made his way out and up to the surface of the Hudson. Trying to catch his breath he and his team were trying to and assess losses, only to be attacked by the same Ceph ship that sunk the sub. The Ceph ship fired on him and his buddies and he heard screams and yelling as they were fired upon. Alcatraz was hit and his team mates seemed to be dying all around him. Slowly he was losing consciousness when he heard heavy gunfire on the Ceph ship. Ceph gun fire cracked through the air in response ripping into the nearby pavement. Moments later a suited figure approaches and and drags him off to safety …

Mission 4: Road Rage Walkthrough: Part 1

Time to move safely down to the now fallen road below. Move to the right side of the road and look down for some debris sticking out and walk down onto it. Walk forward until you are prompted to switch to nanovision. Then open your visor again and tag some more CELL. When you are satisfied move forward and stay left, not giving your position away. Drop down to the road below when you get near a raised area to your left. Its a garden walkway path beside the road, and now with all of the dust thrown up in the air it becomes a threat to nanosuited super soldiers. Move up the stairs toward the garden walkway and without being seen (stop when you have to) move to an area off to the left that’s fenced in. There is a place to stand and hide and there’s an ammo crate. You can take about 4-6 CELL operative soldiers out from nearby this area if you are careful. Watch out for an M12 Nova with silencer here. It will be useful.

This page is a collection of Crysis 2 in-game “load screen” tips, personal shooter-based gaming experience, and first-hand Crysis 2 gameplay. These tips are meant for Campaign gameplay and may be useless or detrimental when used against human opponents.

TACTICS

• As you move ahead, watch for fall back hiding spots where you can retreat and recover health or recharge the Nanosuit’s energy
• Reload often, especially during “down time” in between firefights, or when recharging in safety
• Maintain situational awareness – always know what threats are nearby, and what’s going on around you. Threats can be your opponents, high drop-offs, and your own explosives – think and stay alive
• Reload before running out of ammo for quicker reloads
• Its always faster to switch to your sidearm (or other weapon) than to reload your current weapon
• Scan the battlefield before entering, and tag important things (Tactical Options, ammo crates and desired weapons), and even undesirable items if they are on “landmarks” you want to remember
• Sit behind cover where only one opponent can see you when you fire on the enemy beofre they know about your presence

WEAPONS

• The DSG-1 can score more than 1 kill per shot
• Weapons with mounted silencers lose power over distance. Choose closer targets, or aim carefully for head shots
• The JAW missile can be manually guided using the weapon sights
• Fire in controlled bursts to improve accuracy
• Lay a timed minefield with the L-TAG (press LEFT on D-PAD to switch fire modes). Mines explode when an enemy wanders too close, or about 10-15 seconds pass
• You can carry 2 weapons at a time, along with
• IGN has a great weapons attachment graphic showing what attachments are available for what weapons (IGN Crysis 2 Guide, pg

NANOSUIT

• Collect Nano Catalyst from dead aliens (the “sparkly clouds”) to purchase upgrades to your Nanosuit
• Be a nimble Nanosuit user … change you suit’s settings to fit particular combat situation
• If you are cloaked and found out, when you are getting shot up, switch to maximum armor (armor mode). Enough hits will deplete energy and drop your cloak anyway
• Your Nanosuit’s tactical visor can detect Cell and Ceph through walls, ground and other obstacles out to a certain distance. Use cover to scan and tag from safety!
• Firing most weapons expends enough energy to drop your cloak, be prepared
• Silencers on weapons use less energy when fired (useful when cloaked)
• You can fire a silenced M12 Nova almost indefinitely without losing your cloak

Sudden Impact Walkthrough: Crysis 2, Mission 3

This is part 2 of the Mission 3: Sudden Impact Walkthrough, if you haven’t read it yet, you should begin with part 1.

Now you can re-surface from the drain, get behind the column behind the 50 cal gunner on the Humvee and take him out with your silenced Stealth Scarab. Recharge in cover then move back into the storm drain. The gunner is a higher profile kill more likely to be noticed by the other CELL soldiers since he’s up on top of the Humvee. If he’s discovered, stay in the storm drain until your stealth meter returns to normal, or at least close to it.
