Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
[PROTOTYPE2]: Revenge is a Dish Best Served Cold - Old Klingon Proverb
Posts
The trailer makes it pretty obvious your character will have powers(well, duh, would be no point otherwise).
Though I guess they could have an intro chapter explaining how he got into his powers.
1) I need another copy of this game. I kinda gave my copy to a friend and he kinda traded it for credit at Gamestop. I was kinda fucking mad.
2) Air-tentacle car grab looks like it's going to be such an insanely fun power! I mean, if they set that up so that it grabs any vehicle/large item in the radius and can then be THROWN? Holy shit.
I am so stoked for this, the first game is not perfect, but it is insanely fun.
You should kinda set him up to get buggered by a tentacle.
If Alex Mercer is a douche he is my kind of douche. <3
That lovably maniac reminded me of all the fun times in GTA2 when I roleplayed.
Best Mass Murder spots in any GTA ever.
Ahhhhh, good times.
Suggestions please, people.
I wonder if they will
Just because you guys used tanks the whole game doesn't mean it was the only option. I barely used tanks. Mercer was much stronger.
I'm a bit nervy of "extra variety in missions" in freeform games like this, because it invariably translates into losing options and handholding missions. For example, AC2 and ACB. Brotherhood is especially bad. The missions to infiltrate the castello it handholds your way through this entire castle, making it end up linear.
And the actual mission where you protect it in one place, I have one word for you: "Devastators".
They don't hurt the pump. At all. You can stand on it and do a devastator and kill all the hunters surrounding it.
You know that mission where you have to fly the helicopter around and pick up people and shit?
You can actually land the helicopter somewhere, go and do the objectives on foot, then walk back to the helicopter, hop in and continue. This works all the way up until the very last part where you pick up the two batches of soldiers.

Here are my suggestions for stuff that probably won't get recommended by anyone else:
"Eternal Squaredance" or "Whorses" by Tweak Bird
"It's Hard (The Squeal)" by Modey Lemon
"Octopus Too" by The Mean Reds
"Raging In The Plague Age" by Les Savy Fav
"Super Tape Worm" by The Joint Chiefs of Math
"Bad Kids" by Black Lips
A couple of these are even thematically appropriate for Prototype too. Sort of.

Okay, maybe I'm just on a Blood Red Shoes kick recently.
Yeah, it was nice having a main character that just wanted revenge and to kill everything because fuck everyone
Especially when he starts getting super pissed during that one tank mission

this was good because it made the character's motivation consistent with the way people are actually going to play the game
it really helped me inhabit the nuanced psychology behind being a guy who runs up and down 20 city blocks smashing pedestrians against the wall with a battering ram
I've been playing Prototype on and off again because of you guys. I never did learn the slide-on-a-corpse trick, though. Does it require muscle mass to do? I never understood the use of MM, because I was all about the whipfist and bringing things to me.
*Shredded tanks are high fiber, more so than even Blackwatch commanders. If you have a high cholesterol, then shredded tanks might be the thing for you.
You attack a Blackwatch convoy and it seems to be going well when suddenly a soldier throws a tank at you

I can honestly say I would shit myself. Especially if I wasn't fully upgraded.
Surfing is a buyable power, but you can enter it as a cheat in the extras screen to get it for free from the start.
Then you just target a humanoid thing and hold fly kick all the way. I don't know the code, it's in gamefaqs cheat section.
This is exactly what you're looking for

Neither of those really have the constant speed that I'm looking for.
Strangely, the only song I've really found that does is Surfin' Bird by The Trashmen. I'll totally do a corpse surfing and street smashing montage with that for shits and giggles, but I want a really good song for the proper video.
This one is content appropriate, at least!
Ran across it in the fallout thread. Cute tune.
Go listen to some Strapping Young Lad.
I think the song "SYL" may suit your needs just fine.

In other news, I discovered something that will be revolutionary in fighting helicopters. You can target them and use use Hammertoss. It's a one hit kill.
Couldn't those roided out Hulk-Blackwatch guys throw stuff at you?
Those guys were the bane of my existence when they first showed up. Now I make it my personal mission to kill each one I find.
I've got every power unlocked, and I know I've surfed at least one body, but that was way back when it first got unlocked.
My preferred mode of landing has been going from armour to shield and then charging stuff. Sure, less splat, but I get more ragdoll.
I've found that this doesn't have the desired effect while using muscle mass. It results in a cloud of blood and bone, basically.
So is whipfist skyjacking and it's a lot easier to land the initial hit.
