Thoughts?

i dont know what to say out of words

I won't question the source, though an official word from SmileGate (certainly they have a website?) would be more reassuring.


I certainly hope it is true, this engine is too old for todays world of lacking moral integrity.

I've been wondering, how did Online Games with Sequels (Like SuddenAttack) Handle already existing Accounts?

As in, did they just shutdown SuddenAttack 1 Servers and transferred all the Accounts to the new one?
Or is it simply an alternative Game altogether and you would have to Start over?

Because it would suck to start over if CrossFire 2 were to come out and none of your Stuff would be transferred.

I have no idea how other games did it, but lets say G4 did.

The result is one of two really.
Either they figure out a way to transfer all the items to equal or similar value to each user automatically. I think this is quite unlikely unless the new Crossfire incorporates identical guns and keeps the "version 2" part to graphics and engine only, in which case it is very likely.

Or, they run the two versions in tandem, which is actually pretty unlikely too.. hmm, well I think they'll do the first one then.
I very much doubt they'd get away with simply removing all the accounts with thousands and thousands of dollars worth of items on them and saying "but theres this new game, play that!".
And running Crossfire 1 and 2 simultaneously would make no sense profits-wise, unless its launched as a NEW (not version 2) game on a different platform.
Actually that might be the way to go..

This would be interesting, maybe you could get good registry

Good reg and harder for hackers to put out hacks.

There, source from This is game portal. They are big Korean gaming portal so this news should be true:

I haven't actually played CF in ages, seeing a CF2 I may actually pick up the game again. Although I'm sure they'd just try to milk that one as well.

I really hope they transfer accounts, if not I may not go on to CF2.

I also hope that the gameplay still feels like the regular "CF". Seems quite interesting since we still haven't received major content in our current version.

I'm not surprised since the engine and the graphics is getting really old now. Plus, you also have to compete with new Free-to-Play games which have started to come out often.

They probably use Unreal Engine since that's the only other engine they have which they have the licence to use. Unless they get a new engine within the coming months which I doubt will happen.

I hope they can somehow transfer our accounts since I have been playing this game since the beginning and I don't want to lose 4 years that I have put into this game.

I have already seen the graphics for CF2 about a year or so ago, i'll look for the screenshots again, but as far as graphics it's a lot better, kind of like comparing SF1 to SF2.

and no it wasn't concept art.

let's hope the gameplay isnt' as different as sf1 is to sf2

Speculate

Would be amazing. Wouldn't care a bit about losing my current account or weapons.

As stated in this article they just started gathering development team this summer. I doubt there will be any concrete screenshots/gameplay out in 2014 at all.

It would be awesome if this was true.

If this is true I hope they completely transfer accounts. I would be pretty upset if I lost my 4 years of progress and my hundreds of dollars of weapons(I doubt they would keep Crossfire running if CF2 is a successful sequel). They wouldn't be able to find a value for blackmarket weapons that would please a majority of people because the spending range on BM weapons is too large.

((STYX))

I'd play it.

Think about CF Europe, CF Brasil, CF China... all go to a new version?! I think not, i think its a big update ( graphic, engine etc...) for all existing Crossfire versions from Smilegate to make CF fit for the future and against the other game competitors.

SF1 plays like a wreck, it's a horrible game where the movement looks terrible. Just so ugly, a poor man's CS 1.6.


SF2>SF1

I'd like a CrossFire 2 only if there was an account transfer. People have spent too much money on this game to be willing to start over. They might try it out, but they certainly won't abandon their CrossFire "1" accounts.

suKoOG

This wouldn't even be out til 2015, if true, anyways.


I have a feeling the recoil will change, interp would still be there but would be better. Makes me wonder if b-hopping will be fixed? Would be sad to see it go, as it really is a huge part of the game

If it doesn't work the first time, it most likely won't work the second...


Yea...I just play dota now..lel

Cross Fire 2 maybe worldwide.

Would be a good thing as it would require more powerful PC's then half the third world might not be able to play.:p
