It's made by Crytek, so you know they got the graphics covered. Has a lot of potential gameplay wise too, hopefully they make good use of that potential.
 
I really enjoyed the first game, thought multiplayer was a blast. Look forward to seeing what Crytek can do with the franchise.
 
I love me some First Person Shooters but Homefront seemed pretty mediocre to me , The Story was meh and the MP was just OK imo.
Game didn't seem sequel worthy , Hopefully part 2 will be much improved.:cool:

Visually that looks fantastic there in the pics. Rumor was it was an X1 exclusive, no?
 
I will agree I disliked the story. Also, in Campaign mode it seemed like some enemies could fire endlessly without reloading.

I wonder if Homefront will retain that funky Point spending system for special weapons. I will say if I blew points to get a special weapon that then get sniped as soon as I spawn in the game that feels like a waste. That system is an interesting idea, but need to be refined.
 
Liked this game. The wolverine was great with it's multiple attachments.
 
I'm all for it if it's Crytek. I enjoyed the campaign more than the multiplayer. I look forward to more info about this
 
Gotta love non in game images.
It clearly is ingame though. Did you see some screenshots of infamous Second Son? It seems a bit similar to it and that seems to be ingame too. I think we can definitely expect graphics like these on the next-gen systems.
 
Homefront was trash. The concept was a change from the usual military games and the gameplay had enough tweaks to make it different, but wow HF sure ran lousy on consoles (maybe the PC version was awesome???). I rented the game and got in maybe 2 full matches online in 3 days trying. The rest of the lobbies and games bombed out, I couldn't get in, or the lobby froze. It was a week long rental and I returned it I think on day 4 on the way home from work. No thanks.
 
I'll take the wait and see approach with it. It's Crytech, so of course they have the graphics covered, it's the gameplay in worries bout...
 
I recently played a bit of the storyline at my brother's house and it's pretty meh but I adored the MP gameplay. The demo they released was all I needed and I played it for a while. Probably the most I've played of a military shooter MP. Hopefully Crytek doesn't stray too far from the gameplay formula. Enough to improve, but keep intact what made the game fun. A sort of CoD meets Battlefield-lite game.
 
Homefront 1 is one of the best games this gen, and also underrated and under played. I have a lot of time invested in that game. I felt it was a nice change from the usual COD's and Battlefields. Though after playing Spec Ops the Line, it felt very similar to that, graphically.

Homefront 2 better be half as good as 1. I am so excited!

Crytek will garner my attention when they make a game that's actually good. At this point, Crysis seems to be an outlier for them.
 
Enjoyed the first one. It did have horrible controls, and lousy graphics. Don't know why I enjoyed the thing so much. Was probably just story, and ideals they used. Even though I didn't like the controls I did enjoy the gameplay.
Was so glad when I heard that crytech bought the rights.

Guaranteed 50% already, Crytech is making it, so the graphics will kill, now you just have to worry bout the gameplay for the other half...
If it looks like Homefront 1 graphically, but had great game play, I would be happy.
 
I liked the idea behind Homefront... the game itself just didn't turn out so well. But I'm glad that the franchise survived for someone else to take a stab at it.
 
That's how I feel about CryTek games too. Always a lot of visual polish, not always a lot of worthwhile gameplay/control though. It would be nice if they'd make an actual amazing game for once, it's like all their games are tech demos that are expanded upon.
