3. Weapons and Gadgets
Crysis 3 and the new Tomb Raider have some striking similarities. Firstly, they're both about a young lady who has a thrust for adventure; secondly, both will seem to have a heavy focus on a bow and arrow. This has led me to believe that, for some reason, In Crysis 3 youre weapons arent going to be active in the whole city or certain parts. Now, people have said that this will add an interesting stealth element that the other two never had, but I think its just because bow and arrows are in at the moment. Also, if you remember, Crysis 2 did have a stealth element that made it painfully easy; so adding more stealth is going to make completing Crysis 3 a light summer stroll in the park. Even so, the gadgets you arm yourself with are completely rubbish. As I said in my
10 Most Crushing Gaming Disappointments of All Time:"...while Im talking about crap abilities, your armour, sprint and cloak all use the same energy which is bloody senseless. If you cock up a stealth section because you ran out of juice, youre not going to be able to flee like a little girl."
So if Crytek carry on this trend of having all your tools using one tank, they've learn absolutely nothing. Having the choice to move through a level stealthily rather than shooting everyone in a five mile radius is great, but nothing sucks more than forced stealth sections in a game.
