Bioshock 2

[VenomKing666]

News:

-You play as Jake Abbott a private investigator searching for one of the girls kidnapped by Big Sister.

- Jake won't be the only one investigating Rapture. At some point in the story, Soviet agents arrive from a submarine, hoping to acquire Adam and use it to gain an advantage over the Americans in the Cold War. Soviet enemies will be much smarter than splicers, using cover and flanking maneuvers and working in groups. As the game progresses they will begin splicing themselves and be able to use plasmids against you. The Soviets and splicers will fight against each other and the player can use that to their advantage. "

-Game takes place in 1967, 7 years after the original

-A cutscene starts the game off In New York City as Jack intercepts the Big Sister kidnapping his daughter in his beachhouse. He follows it to the near by shores as it submerges into the water

- Epic boss battles and underwater gameplay. Much of Rapture is now flooded and you will need to don a diving suit to explore these areas as well as venture outside Rapture itself. An underwater boss fight was shown with a gigantic squid, which can cloak itself and use its massive tentacles to smash into Rapture and hurl debris. One of the concept artworks hinted at a boss battle with a mutated, spliced rhino in Rapture's zoo.

Solving the whole Big Sister debate:
-Only one Big Sister (Mastermind of game)

-Big Daddies are no longer in the game, but new enemies include dogs and soviets

Some other goodies
-Completely new levels of Rapture, including a fully explorable zoo.
-Underwater exploration levels
-New weapons and plasmids (Including a telepathy and time control)
-Challenge maps
-2 Player co-op. (No mention on who second player is)
-New Health and Revival System

Sounds awesome. Can't wait to play the underwater levels and explore the zoo.

Too bad there won't be any Big Daddies, though :C

True, I also heard that the zoo and the rhino were cut from the original game.

copy/pasted much?

but anyways
i dont really know what to think of the co-op

bioshock(in my mind)
was meant to be single player

games dont need multiplayer to be good

This is hot.
Tho I never played the first one, and never going to play the second one,
bioshock always seemed like a badass game.
=D

I have faith this will be awesome.

There's a little guy that likes to worry in the back of my head though... and right now he's concerned about the lack of big daddies and the addition of enemy soldiers. He's afraid it'll stop being Bioshock and become just another FPS where you walk around a destroyed city and kill enemy soldiers and their pets. He's already played COD and he wasn't that impressed... he's not looking forward to Bioshock of Duty.

I told him to shut up though... he doesn't know what he's talking about.

[Trooper7]

No big daddys? come on! I mean maybe not carry a little sister but just wandering around or maybe there enemys and will attack on sight.

[Shnam]

Does it have a release date?

[CamTheReaper187]

dude i cant wait for this game i loved bioshot and the co op sounds kick ass

[DroopyA]

Turns out, not all of this true... in fact, none of it may be true... although it sounds like some of it is.

A post from 2k on the 2k forums reads:Hi guys,

Please do not believe everything you read on the internet.

This rumor circulating is not true.

Grab the Game Informer magazine. It's shipped out and should be to subscribers and on store shelves really soon.

And one from GameInformer:

The Bioshock 2 news that is running around the web is quite...interesting.
While we can¹t confirm or deny anything that is being said, let us give you a quick piece of advice: don't believe everything you read from some dude on the Internet.

If people had actually read the Bioshock 2 cover story from this month's issue...well, you will see how it matches up with the real deal when it arrives this weekend, as the rumors floating around are so amazingly wrong on a very "big" point. Watch for the magazine in stores and in mailboxes this weekend, so you will have your information soon enough.

I like that 'big' is in quatations... as if maybe there are still Big Daddies or that possibly there is more then one Big Sister. Who knows... I guess only time will tell.

Great, so it might mean Big Daddies are going to be around, and I HOPE THIS ZOO THING IS FUCKING TRUE.

Also sorry SMC I didn't saw your other thread.

It's cool man. No one knows what is B.S. and what is true right now. My suggestion is to just hold off until we read GI ourselves and here the actual developers and reliable sources tell us what is in the game.

I agree the zoo thing would be sweet.
