In an interview with CVG,
Condemned 2: Bloodshot senior producer Constantine Hantzopoulos talks specifics about
Bloodshot including the new (and improved) combat system. Hantzopoulos says that
Criminal Origins' fighting stayed true to the visceral feel they were going for, but was too bland and repetitive. But now with
Condemned 2 they've added four layers to their combat system that'll make killing so much more bloody fun. First, you can fight with your fists, something the original didn't let you do. Second, you can use all the same objects you did in the original to knock around your enemies. Third, you can chain attacks together
God of War style to create some crazy intense sequences. And fourth, you can use the environment as a weapon by slamming their head into a TV or tossing them into a wood chipper. Gory .. we know.
The interview also reveals details about multiplayer combat, how forensics will work, cut scenes and something called Hobo Fight Club. And let's just say Hobo Fight Club sounds crazy fun where a player can get in a ring with a bunch of hobos to unleash their built up anger. But the game in a nutshell is summarized best by Mr. Hantzopoulos when he simply says that
Condemned 2 "
will f**k with you". You know, in a good way.

I just hope that the "forensic mini-games" aren't as retarded as they were in the first episode. That aspect of the game felt like a pointless wart on the gameplay and I hope that they don't make the same mistake twice...

Yes Jenna a sound was used LAST WEEK to unlock Server 3.
I hope this game is better than the first because the first had brilliant graphics but bored me shitless. I think I got to level 3 and just turned it off.
