Nice, it's pretty awesome imo.

I think its total fail actually.  It is nothing like the original.  I can't just sit there cloaked, you use just as much energy standing as running; you have to "activate" armor mode which used to be your default and always on; and its not much of a nano suit when 1 or 2 bullets puts you down.  I got spanked after an hour of playing.  I think I got 2 kills. Whats all this acrobatic crap sliding along the floor or jumping & doing that punch on the ground that JAX from the old mortal kombat did?  ****?! 
 
I am not a fan of multiplayer of those types because there are those people that have no life (or kids) who can sit there for hours & days on end and rank up and get all this cool crap while working joes like myself who don't game all that much get spanked by weapons that use thermal imagine.  The game is designed to be a war of attrition where kids wear out the old and we just are target practice.
 
I was very excited to play a single player version.   I play the original single play free roaming to this day.  If this is nothing but multiplayer I will be crushed, I enjoy story lines even though that makes the game finite.  I have been looking forward to going back to that island in North Korea and kicking a$$.  If everyone has nanosuits the game blows.  The advantage is you were a one man army against everyone who DIDN't have a nanosuit.  [/rant]

Seems like Crysis 2 is hit or miss for most people. I too still play the first, doing free roam is a lot of fun. Would be sick if Crysis 2 had free roam, in New York, but the amount of modelling work to do that would be insane. I haven't seen many people use the acrobatics and ground crush thingy personally.
 
Oh and you can turn on thermal by hitting 'N'.

I watched a video of the single player game, something about road rage.  I think I saw the Brooklyn bridge in there.  Looked pretty sweet... for a console ;)
I know I am not a fan of the new nanosuit as of yet, but its still just a demo.  I personally think there was nothing wrong with the original, and would have loved for everything to be just like it except to finish the storyline.  I even liked the war hammer expansion pack.

War Hammer?
 
I agree, they really just needed to continue the story line.

I agree, they really just needed to continue the story line.

Sorry, I meant warhead.  Crysis 2 actually ran "ok" at 5040 x 1050.  I loved how you could actually flank enemies, you weren't "guided" along limited paths of combat like all the COD/MW2 type games.  The free reign of the original will be the biggest selling factor for me.
