Mendon Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 (edited) I'm one of those that enjoyed The Conduit and have been looking forward to Conduit 2. Today, they announced more info on the game, including that a headset will be included and you'll be able to chat with fellow online players. Some of the new game information....... - Game can receive remote patches to fix any online problems - Game comes with with a headset - Can chat in the lobby, during matches, and in-between matches - You can become invisible on the radar when using the secondary charge side effect of the SCAR semi-automatic rifle - Features a perk system similar to Modern Warfare - Some multiplayer maps might include vehicles - There is some downtime between matches - Sticky proximity mines is the alternate fire for the TPC launcher - 30 suit upgrades - Unlock weapons in multiplayer with weapon blueprints - Unlock backgorund materials with conspiracy items - If you die, a teammate can bring you back to life - Shoot helmets and armor to expose weakspots - DLC a possibilities - Staring at a wall = 70 FPS, Explosions/action = 28 FPS - 15 multiplayer maps for now High Voltage really seems to be working hard at making Conduit 2 a great game and I'm looking forward to it now more than ever!!

Tom-Lynx Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 We recently got The Conduit and have been enjoying it. I wish the multiplayer was available offline as well though and it looks like it won't be a feature offline in the new version either.

Mendon Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 (edited) Good and bad news..... Bad: Release date has been pushed back until Q1 of 2011 (Boooooo) Good: Game will now support Classic and Classic Pro controllers (YAY). Game will also take advantage of Wii-Motion Plus.

I agree though - wait and have a better result. Too many developers are calling the Wii a "GameCube 1.5" but then delivering a GameCube .25 to GameCube .50 result on the system.

Gregory DG Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 I enjoyed The Conduit, but I never finished it. Maybe I'll get around to it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mendon Posted January 29, 2011 Author Share Posted January 29, 2011 (edited) Multiplayer modes are detailed HERE. New gameplay screens are displayed HERE I am really, really hyped for this game as it sounds like High Voltage is putting a lot of work/effort into it.

Mendon Posted March 18, 2011 Author Share Posted March 18, 2011 Latest trailer! I get more and more excited for this game with each new trailer and developer update. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djZBhlkLjQ4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+swlovinist Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 I am excited by the game being developed by what appears to be a company very dedicated to releasing a quality product. I am excited to see what the final product looks like, and will be one of the first "new" games I buy this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+swlovinist Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I can admit that I have been happy with my purchase, which I never buy new. I can honestly say that this is probably the best FPS shooter that can be done on the Wii. A job well done. I would recommend this to fans of Goldeneye remake for the Wii.

Mendon Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 (edited) I was so busy yesterday that I didn't even have a chance to open the shipping box the game came it. I'm making time to give it a good play tonight! IGN seemed to like it (I think it got a 7) but Game Informer wasn't pleased much at all. Oh well, I don't think either liked the first game, which I totally enjoyed so I'll make up my own mind.

Mendon Game Informer has most often been a huge hater of the system, and their bias of the other two systems if often staggering. The Conduit 2 is a much better game than a 6, but to each its own. IGN had a much better overall review, which I felt was more fair(7.5). I would probably give this a solid 8 or 8.5.

Animan Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I love HVS. If you think about it, they are slowly becoming this generation's Rare. Just when everyone thought the Wii was going to die, The Conduit showed it still had potential. OK, it isn't that drastic, but you get my point. I can see Nintendo and HVS forming a partnership in a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DracIsBack Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 (edited) Just when everyone thought the Wii was going to die, Only fanboys that don't look at facts think that. The way some tell the story, you'd swear the Wii's sales suddenly fell overnight from millions to zero ... not that the system is starting to wind down. Not something unusual for a 5 year old console really. Regardless of where the Wii is in its lifecycle, the console moved 15 million units in Nintendo's most recent fiscal year and 171 million Wii games were sold (for a console that fanboys assert 'no one buys games for'). http://www.nintendo....011/110425e.pdf Nintendo will cut the price, Wii sales will rebound. Nintendo will release Zelda. Wii sales will rebound. Then the successor appears ... six years into Wii's life.

rockman_x_2002 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Just now getting the chance to get around to Conduit 2, and I'm only past the first level, but so far I'm quite impressed. The environs are much improved over the first game (and I didn't find the first game to be all the bad, really). There's a lot of comedic moments in there, a great deal of sarcasm, lots of conspiracy theorist stuff to chew on (like in the first game), and a whole boatload of movie references. I even stumbled across one reference to Back to the Future in the very first level. Won't spoil that one for anyone that wants to find it for themselves, but I'll say you'll likely know it when you stumble across it. Overall I'd say they've done a fine job with the game, and I hope they continue to make more titles in the Conduit series. Although I also hope they refine it a bit and give the game some smarter AI. That would be my only gripe about the game, that the AI in the game is about a dumb as a doorpost. But overall, still a nice game, and a relaxed shooter that looks quite nice on the Wii and plays exceptionally well to boot. Haven't tried the multiplayer yet, but as I do with all FPS titles, I reserve that goodness for when the main campaign is done and in the books.

You were commenting on perception and I've noticed this weird "OMG - Wii is dead" perception in the blog community. Was commenting on that thinking as opposed to your post.

cimerians Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Sorry I'm new to this series. Should I bother with the first game or just get the second? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
