'InFamous: Second Son' has combat that's incredibly better than previous games

One of the most anticipated PS4 titles has got to be InFamous: Second Son and given the amount of time and hard-work Sucker Punch has put into this next game, it's sure to be one that blows people away from a visual and gameplay standpoint.

Recently, Sucker Punch founder Brian Fleming talked how difficult the early stages of the game's development was as well as the improvements the studio has made to InFamous: Second Son's combat.

Can't wait to see this myself, hopefully every power has it's own set of melee combos.

" hopefully every power has it's own set of melee combos."

That's what im hoping too, but i haven't seen any videos showing a neon melee attack. Maybe Delsin could have neon fists and every time he punches a neon shockwave comes off with particles everywhere, that would be awesome.

ZodTheRipper3724d ago

Definately, melee was awesome in Infamous 2 already

Can't wait to see why they even call it "incredibly better" now.

Irishguy953724d ago

I believe the neon melee attack...was the neon sprint thing? In a recent interview we were told the controls. In smoke mode it's chain melee, in Neon mode it's the sprint? Or maybe i'm wrong, however I think the powers vary even more than we currently know

Lboogieskells3724d ago (Edited 3724d ago )

Neon melee attack replaced with sprint action. But I have hopes for the other powers . The more melee the better.

pedrof933724d ago

I just found out, this game is a TPS ? Isn't it ?

FamilyGuy3724d ago (Edited 3724d ago )

Oh man, it'd be like the final fight scene in The Last Dragon when Sho Nuff and Leroy get "The Glow" lol

I'd melee all damn day if that happens!

Sho nuff (bad ass) http://www.youtube.com/watc...
Leroy http://www.youtube.com/watc...

@ pedrof93

Yes and no. You can go full on shooter if you like or you can melee everything as you see fit OR mix it up for Maximum carnage.

UltimateMaster3724d ago

Really? Because I tough i2 and Festival of Blood had some of the best Game play of any action game out there including the Batman Arkam "series".

Bathyj3723d ago

Family guy, you must be old like me to remember that movie. Bruce Leroy.

I hope they give us a demo before the game drops. SP gave us demos with infamous 1 & 2.

trenso13724d ago

to me from the video i saw the neon power looked like his regular ones just purple unless someone can point me to a video where there is a distinct difference between the two powers.

FamilyGuy3724d ago

You haven't seen his neon flash step? Where he runs up walls and literally runs through the air super fast and looking like The Flash?

trenso13721d ago

yes but to me that is like his air dash with the fire powers just that he is running in the air instead of turning into a smoke of burning ash.

CrossingEden3724d ago (Edited 3724d ago )

Neon doesn't have melee combos according to the recent demo impressions. I REALLY am hoping that it does in the final game. One other thing i'm worried about is that in the demos there was no option to manually switch powers like in the old game, the only way to switch powers so far is to absorb it.

GarrusVakarian3724d ago (Edited 3724d ago )

The only way to switch is to actively go and search for that power, you can't just switch. I think the devs wanted to add some challenge. But you need to go and find power sources anyway because you have to refill your powers, so it's no that bad. According to the video's we have seen there seems to be plenty of sources to choose from.

I think the reason why they haven't shown any other areas in the gameplay vids/trailers is because we might see the other power sources and thus spoil the powers.

FPSRUSSIA3724d ago

from what i have seen i don't doubt it for a second March cant come soon enough.

WeAreLegion3724d ago

I don't think I've seen someone use "incredibly better", but I'll take it!

Shakengandulf3724d ago

You incredibly better take it. :)

Meltic3724d ago

i Think the Powers is Neon, smoke. Meaby water Powers? from the river or something fountains drain Power there?. Some Lightning from lights and Buildings. Meaby gravity Power?. Would be cool

WeAreLegion3724d ago

I think the water powers will allow him to walk on water, which is why Nate Fox said the last thing we'd want to do in Second Son is swim. ;)

Also, I'd just switch "gravity" to "telekinesis".

fenome3724d ago (Edited 3724d ago )

March 21st needs to hurry up and get here!

The article actually stopped me from reading it and told me that if I wanted to continue I would have to watch an advertisement. I don't care if they're littered around the page, but don't interrupt me when I'm halfway through reading an article to try to sell me stuff, it's just rude.

100%, locked 60fps and still look great all these years later, same with the expansion, definitely worth a look if people haven't played it yet, not the best games ever made but a good experience, hopefully a new infamous gets released

KwietStorm_BLM95d ago

Never was my favorite infamous, but it was definitely a graphics showcase early on PS4. Still plays well with the unlocked frame rate.

SDuck95d ago

Still remember getting hyped about this game nearing release. Funny because I never even got a PS4. Jumped from PS3 to PC so I never played it ahahaha

OmegaSoldati94d ago

Its a good game. But thats it. Congratulations you made the best choice. I dream to have a great PC one day.

Profchaos95d ago (Edited 95d ago )

Graphically It's a absolutely stunning game that still holds up today.

Didn't have all that much depth to it forcing you to play though twice for a platinum trophy a good and bad run it was a little disappointing how similar those were Delsin would be like I'm not doing that for you in a cutscene but the cutscene would play out and force you to do it anyway just as you would of in a good run

I did like the story however it got a lot of complaints back in the day people hated playing as Delsin instead of cole despite Coles story being wrapped up.

Overall though the map wasn't overly saturated with useless points of interest there was some collectibles and things to find but nothing compared to a Ubisoft game.

I think it was a good game if a little hollow I've played it through around 4 times now since it's so short.

Also it's DLC was great a full story expansion

I've played 15, and I wouldn't consider any of those underrated TBH. Some of them are pretty high rated.

banger88126d ago

That's amazing, Gamingbolt actually put all 15 games on the same page.

shinoff2183125d ago

I. Not seeing anything on that list underrated. I never played concrete genie, the ASTRO vr,and one other but I forgot the name already. Nothing on there was underrated at all imo.

persona4chie125d ago

There’s only 4 of those games I never played, and no most of those aren’t underrated.
