You can knock them out as they are flying and once they fall into the ground, you can retrieve the data and listen to the audio diaries in order to provide background information on the game's plot. The Dead Drops return, but in the form of carrier pigeons. Completing a certain number will earn you more powers. If that Good Karma mission is completed, the Bad Karma mission disappears, and vice versa. There is also a Good Karma and Bad Karma mission once in a while and you can choose which one to take. People's reactions when they see you will also depend on whether your Karma is good or bad.Īs you explore, there are some side missions you can take part of in order to take back parts of New Marais one by one. As your Karma increases or decreases, your rank will change and Cole's appearance will change. Your Karma will also decrease if you do evil actions like harming the citizens or choosing a certain evil action. Starting in a neutral position, your Karma will increase if you do good actions like protecting the citizens and defeating enemies. Just like the first game, Karma is the biggest aspect, which is basically the game's morality system.
PS3 INFAMOUS 2 UPGRADE
You can spend these experience points in the Powers menu to upgrade his powers, but those upgrades will appear when Cole's Karmic rank increases. The game contains role-playing elements in which Cole can earn experience points for doing various actions, like completing story or side missions, defeating enemies, or helping or harming citizens. Similar to the Sly Cooper series' gadget select screen, you can quickly equip a variation of a certain power at the press of a button, making it more convenient than to just go to pause menu and press the "Powers" tab to gain access to it. Here they are much simpler to do (blow up three enemies at once, get a number of head shocks, etc.) and not once were they irritating to accomplish.
PS3 INFAMOUS 2 SERIES
The Stunts in the first game were like the Skill Points from the Ratchet & Clank series in which they are additional tasks you can perform. Upgrades can be unlocked by performing stunts. Most of the powers from the first game like the grenades, shock wave, and rockets remain, but they took away the shield power, which was sometimes pretty useful. Melee combat has been improved with the addition of the Amp, a weapon Cole can use to whack enemies and perform finishers.Īs Cole absorbs a new Blast Core, he earns a new power, and upgrades are available afterwards. Due to having electric powers, Cole cannot drive vehicles, use guns, or even swim, the latter which can kill him. Throughout the game, Cole learns new electric-based powers in order to go up against enemies more easily and each one of those powers are very useful. Cole can explore New Marais by scaling buildings and walking on tightropes, a la Sly Cooper. Like its predecessor, Infamous 2 is an open-world sandbox game, with elements of platforming, third-person shooting, and role-playing.
Unlike the first game in which the ending is the same but the post-credits scene is different depending on your Karma, there are two endings to the game, which gives you a reason to play it at least the second time. It makes me wonder how things will turn out in the end (or ends). I do feel that the story is much more intriguing than the first one, because the characters were more memorable and the stakes are even higher. Throughout the game, he launches a propaganda against Cole in order to turn the whole city against him.
He is the de facto leader of New Marais with a religious belief that God destined him for greatness and wishes for the destruction of all Conduits. While the Beast is the primary antagonist of the game, Joseph Bertrand is the secondary antagonist.
Cole must now find all the Blast Cores which will make him powerful enough to power up the RFI (Ray Field Inhibitor) in order to put a stop to the Beast once and for all.Ĭole and Zeke also make new allies such as Nix, a Conduit swamp dweller, and Laroche, the leader of the anti-Militia group. Upon meeting him, however, Wolfe's lab is destroyed and the Blast Cores needed to make Cole stronger are scattered throughout the city. As he and Zeke prepare to go to New Marais, the Beast attacks Empire City and devastates it, despite Cole's best efforts in stopping him.Ĭole and Zeke arrive in New Marais alongside NSA agent, Lucy Kuo, to search for Doctor Sebastian Wolfe, the scientist who constructed the Ray Sphere, who can make Cole stronger. Infamous 2 takes place a month after the first game where Cole MacGrath was warned about a Beast that will bring destruction on the world.
