Question Is prototype 1-2 worth it?

8 Upvotes

remember trying prototype as a kid played a decent chunk but stopped. Because the gore or maybe the graphics gave me a headache.

Years later is it worth picking it up right now. Back then I was playing it on pc. Now I will be playing it on Xbox series x . And it's on discount so I will probably get the bundle.

Question How Receptive Would You Be To A Dedicated Multiplayer Prototype Game?

https://www.deviantart.com/alexkabreighmercer/art/Prototype-BlackWatch-Soldiers-1211505081

Here's a potential concept scenario:

  • 8 Player Online
  • Team Blackwatch (2-6 Players)
  • Team Blacklight (1 Player)
  • Team Redlight (1 Player)

For this mock-up, the setting is Manhattan, New York City as the Open World environment. Each match is roughly 40 minutes long, depending on player progression. The team with the most points at the end or if all other opposing teams are eliminated, wins the match. If any non-Blackwatch team wins, the victory screen ends in a nuclear explosion, but ultimately survives in the aftermath.

- The primary game mode is Dominion, where each team attempts to capture Civilian Resource Nodes to not only spread their team's influence, but to also gather points to produce more powerful units under their command. The more Nodes captured, the faster that team accumulates points.

- The NPC Team that protects the Civilian Resource Nodes start out as normal Police units, but as the game progresses every ~7 minutes or so, they'll eventually upgrade to SWAT, the National Guard, and up to the US Army. These Resource Nodes also become increasingly reenforced, becoming harder to capture/infect. This team is Neutral to Team Blackwatch.

- Team Blackwatch consists of 2-6 Players who can customize their character, unit role, and Armaments from the pre-game menu. This team is the slowest at capturing nodes, but reaching point thresholds unlock Anti-Runner Node defense systems, higher tier ground/air vehicle units, and enhances their own combat abilities. In addition, destroying Infected, Infected Nodes or terminating a Runner, grants bonus points for this team.

- The Runner Teams can determine their chosen play style in the pre-game menu, choosing their custom progression paths that they can progress using Biomass Points. Runner teams can be any combination of Blacklight and/or Redlight, or even both being the same type. When first starting, each Runner is very vulnerable to attacks from their opposing teams, but by utilizing the parkour system and their faster movement speeds, they are capable of surviving until they can strengthen themselves with increased stats and new abilities. Runners can respawn by sacrificing an Infected Node, but it they can't, they permanently die.

- Team Redlight controls a Runner that specializes in rapidly infecting Nodes and controls a large number of weaker units to throw at enemies in the form of infected hordes. Redlight can Infect Nodes or consume Civilians, Blackwatch, and Runner team units to gain Biomass Points to unlock new abilities. Consuming the opposing Runner grants the greatest amount of Biomass Points.

- Team Blacklight controls a Runner that can infect Nodes at a moderate pace, but controls individually more powerful units that focus more on brute force. Blacklight can Infect Nodes or consume Civilians, Blackwatch, and Runner team units to gain Biomass Points to unlock new abilities. Consuming the opposing Runner grants the greatest amount of Biomass Points.

Prototype 1 So there really are people who think Alex taking the nuke away at the end of Prototype 1 was a joke move.

30 Upvotes

I've actually seen people compare the heroic climax of Prototype 1 to a joke scene from Prototype 2, then say both James and Alex are equally fool.

First of all, Heller couldn't use the computer. A priest told him to calm down and showed him how to operate it. That scene was purely a joke designed by the developers to make players laugh, because they had received complaints that the first game was too serious. They added a lot of jokes to Prototype 2 and were proud of them.

Alex's situation is completely different. If he had any way of knowing the launch code, would he have chosen to sacrifice himself? The story itself makes it clear that he either didn't know the code or simply had no way to stop the explosion.

So comparing the climactic heroic moment at the end of Prototype 1 to a scene that was deliberately written to make players laugh at the protagonist, then calling them the same kind of fool......... Apparently, an intentionally comedic scene and the heroic climax of Prototype 1 are the exact same “fool” thing to some people. If they're both just "fool," then I guess Prototype 1's biggest moment was nothing more than a joke. I genuinely don't understand how anyone can make that comparison.

Meme Heller's PowerPoint Presentation

188 Upvotes

Hello, everyone. It's been a long time and it's good to see you all again. So, I was making this art from a week ago and I finally finished the fanart. It's been a while posting new arts for you all, because I am very busy at my job and sometimes doin' other things. I tried to follow some other famous memes to lighten the franchise and add one of my own. I know I'm outdated about the reference but let's hope that we can revive it a little. And that's it, I hope you'll like it, everyone.

Heller was a good father and a dangerous being that could ever existed. Along with Mercer and Greene. His daughter, Amaya, was a grown teen and has problems in her science project. She's smart and kind, but needs assistance to her PowerPoint Presentation. And Heller did something that a father would do. He works while following instructions to the book, as Mercer and Greene couldn't handle witnessing Heller's hilarious struggle. His word spouted slurs and irritation. After hours in the laptop, he finally finished it. Proud and satisfied.

I wish I could make a PowerPoint Presentation for Heller but I don't have the time and the mood to make one. Hehe. Sorry, everyone.

Prototype 2 In the end, Heller and Alex are similar: neither knows how to use a computer and both end up making fools of themselves. They both need Dana and Amaya.

Prototype 1 Farming EP on hard mode?

8 Upvotes

Hello, I see this question has been asked before but it hasn't been asked specifically for hard mode . I hear that hard mode reduces the amount of EP you earn for missions and destroying hives and infected towers. Is that true? And if so, how can I farm EP cos I want to get all the upgrades before I move on to the more difficult missions and boss fights. Thanks.

Steve Blum and David sobolov provided additional voices of military personnel and blackwatch in Prototype and I got the chance to meet them at my convention this year and so what I had to do was obvious.

Have them sign my giant blackwatch art poster.

Prototype 1 Now that I think of it, this game is the reason why I like edgy and dark stuff.

Post image
124 Upvotes

I grew up playing this game along with inFAMOUS. Both franchises were apart of my childhood. When I was younger, the super hero power concepts from these games simply blew my mind. But aside from the powers and gameplay of Prototype, one other major thing I liked about it was the edginess and brutality of the lore. We all know the theme and story of this franchise is pretty fucking metal, and pretty disturbing. And I just simply loved it.

Now that I’m older, I listen to a lot of extreme metal music. I like dark electronic music. I obviously love the color black. I guess my point is that, I believe this game is why I ended up liking a lot of the stuff that I like now. Just felt like sharing this thought on here.

Edit: I almost forgot this part. The soundtracks of Prototype are amazing and I always liked listening to them when I would play the game a lot back then. That basically explains it lol.

Hey there’s a input where after grabbing a hunter you can press square and Alex will loop around and does like a rear bear hug, does anyone know what you’re supposed to do after? The hunter always just breaks out of the grapple after that but I know there’s gotta be another input to do some move or something on them after pressing O and square
