One Major Concern: Infamous Second Son

Daniel Morris says "The good men and women over at Sucker Punch certainly know what they are doing. After winning the hearts of platforming fans everywhere with Sly Cooper, they moved onto the darker Infamous series. The first two Infamous games really pushed the limit of what can be done with a superhero story. Now with the ps4, a new generation of games is about to begin and what better way than a brand new Infamous. I am no doubt excited by this but while watching the trailer I had a nagging doubt looming in the back of my mind. Here’s hoping Sucker Punch will not let me down."

Control smoke + up nose of other characters= controls - gas mask = no control

[shivvy24]

Well they make great games but really you cant judge a game if theres not much gameplay to go on

[GribbleGrunger]

I think we'll have more than one character to control in singleplayer and a full roster of characters to control in multiplayer.

[Donnieboi]

Multiplayer? Da fuq u talking about?! Co-op? Or do u mean full MP? Was this ever even confirmed??

[GribbleGrunger]

It doesn't need confirming. It WILL be there. Unless you didn't watch the conference or take Sony's message in?

[Donnieboi]

But that's not confirmation. Sony NEVER said there would be MP. That's quite cocky of you to impose your OPINION by saying that it WILL be there, when SOny never said that. And Sony wouldnt need to skirt around the issue--either they would just say MP is included, or wait for a later date to say so, but your imposed OPINION is not fact (whether we would or wouldn't like MP in the game).

[GribbleGrunger]

Yeah, my fault, I should have just said online play. I wouldn't be surprised to see Co-op though

[pandaboy]

don't worry about gribble, he just enjoys jerking off to his own wacky predictions.

[r21]

Its a concern but not a major one. I trust Sucker Punch to make the smoke ability work. Besides, who says thats his only ability? I remember one of the SP staff mentioned that Delsin absorbed this ability from someone else, probably implying Delsin has the ability to instead copy or absorb other Conduits powers.

[DanVMorris]

Ya I may have exaggerated a bit. I trust them as well, but you never know what can happen. It also wouldn't be a surprise to see more than one power considering Infamous 2 utilized more than just electricity as well.

[r21]

Nah, its understandable, thers not much clear info bout the game so all we have left is to speculate. Im hoping Delsin can absorb powers like Peter in Heroes. Makes the game more dynamic. Find a conduit and touch him, get powers.

[sorceror171]

I strongly suspect that the 'smoke travel' won't be 'teleporting'. It will almost certainly be like the 'shadow swarm' flight in Festival of Blood. Note - that can be used as an attack in FoB, no reason it couldn't in Second Son.

[DanVMorris]

I thought they could be pretty similar but I actually never got around to playing FoB so I couldn't comment on it. It would make sense.

[b_one]

ppl are just writing such stuff after few secs of trailer?

[shadowgeist00]

Welcome to N4G. =3

[DanVMorris]

It was really just something I was thinking about a few days after the trailer. Sorry. And to be 100% fair they did tweet out that the trailer contained gameplay with different camera angles.
