A sequel to Volition\'s first-person shooter is on the way.

THQ has announced that Red Faction 2, the sequel to Volition\'s first-person shooter, is currently in development for the PlayStation 2. While details on the game are sparse, Volition has stated that an enhanced geo-mod feature--which lets players destroy parts of the surrounding landscape with weapons--will be included in the game, along with enhanced graphics, better enemy AI, and an auto-save feature. Volition also announced plans to include a four-player split-screen option, bots, and new multiplayer modes.
We\'ll have more on Red Faction 2 before its Q4 2002 release.

Sounds like fun. How could they possibly make another one though? Maybe on a different planet?

I wonder if they\'ll extend the Geo-Mod function to character models this time? *Evil Grin* That\'d be some cool shyt to be able to blast a hole through someone, prop them up on your shotgun so that you\'re shooting THROUGH the massive hole in his gut at you enemies while using him as a human sheild ala From Dusk till Dawn.

Heck who cares about extending the Geo-Mod. How about actually including it as a necessary element in the gameplay

or allow us to use Geo-Mod to discover our own ways around

probably need the harddrive for that and hopefully it is being planned

That sounds like fun. Maybe the Geo-Mode will be more into the game like you have to use it to get to certain areas and what about the Graphics?

I was wondering how come the Geo-Mod was never used in any other games? Wasn\'t it sussposed to revolutionize the gaming enviroment? I wonder if its a specially license Red Faction deal?

Geo-Mod is a Volition engine made specifically for Red Faction

It would be up to Volition if they wanted to liscense it

Let`s hope that they not just improve the graphics but double the framerate this time.

i love red faction

« **Reply #11 on:** January 27, 2002, 03:23:49 PM »

i swear ive already posted in this thread, but there is not one here...

oh well

i loved the first one, but it could of been better, lets hope they get it right this time, i wanna see geo mod used more, as after the 1st section it aint used much, plus some walls cant be blown up, get rid of the rail gun, it was a good idea, but everytime you went in a new room you had to check it out using the thermal imaging , s they had the same gun and you would die ..... fix the frame rate, a better storyline, i thought the first one was gonna have a good story, you just got a few cut scenes, more vehicles, better control, more different type of enemies, more ai, more explosions

Hello
