We're not writing for a Wikia based on the game here, please don't word entries like the weapons are real if they're not. It's confusing to potential readers to say that a weapon that doesn't exist is manufactured by such and such a company and so on; describe it in terms of what ''real'' weapon it is or resembles. Keep the game background minimal and only mention it ''after'' talking about the gun's identity, we're not here to document that kind of thing.

Revision as of 14:16, 26 March 2011
There are several things that should be added
- There is no source that claims that the SCAR uses the Remington SPC
- The texture of the gun actually has written 6.8x45mm on it above the trigger, can be seen on various high-res pictures, for example: http://www.crysis-france.com/images/rsgallery/original/scar.jpg, so it really isnt the Remington SPC.
=> Yes, but it's the SCAR from crysis 1 that shoot in 6.8 x45mm. The SCAR 2 in crysis 2 uses may be the 5.56 x45mm NATO ?
- No, it isnt 5,56, check MyCrysis for that. It's still the same SCAR, so it's most probably the same caliber, too.
- MyCrysis weapon info thing says it uses smaller ammo than 5.56, allowing for the 40 round magazines. Alex T Snow 08:51, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
- The Grendel assaut rifle uses the 6.5 mm Grendel
- The Feline SMG may be using the 5,7x28mm armor piercing PDW bullet with Surefire Hi-Cap Mags (60 rounds)
- This is not a 20mm Korean machine gun, it is rather a 7,62mm machine gun like the FN MAG, 20mm is the caliber for autocannons
"Be Strong" Trailer weapons
--Milkovich 15:10, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
- The rifle in the second image is the M2014 Gauss Rifle, an update to Crysis' Gauss Rifle. - Kenny99 03:37, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
DSG1 semi-automatic
The weapon appears to be semi-automatic instead of bolt operated in all the multiplayer videos I have seen so far.--Milkovich 13:41, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
- The DSG-1 could never decide if it was semiauto or bolt action in the original game, if I remember rightly, you only operated the bolt if you weren't looking down the scope. Vangelis 14:38, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
Here's some information I've collected so far from the videos:
- It appears that the USMC soldiers in nanosuit-like armor (identified by tan armor color) and C.E.L.L. armored soldiers (identified by greyish color and armor fabric similar to the older nanosuit in the previous game) are two teams that you can play in multiplayer.
- Much of the weapons are revamps of the previous games' weapons.
- C.E.L.L. apeears to be the new name for Crynet Ops due to their very alike appearances.
- You play as "Alcatraz," a U.S. SF soldier, throughout the game.
Hope this helps. Also, welcome back, Vangelis. It's been a hell of a long time since your last edit.- Kenny99 02:11, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
Heckler & Koch MP7
Makes a return in Crysis 2.
Does anyone know the ingame name? --Milkovich 14:45, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
- I am not sure, but it might be easier to identify when the demo is released for PC.
-Kenny99 15:25, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
- That looks like the AY69 version, Nomad and Psycho both held the MPX8 with two hands. Vangelis 15:57, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
- It looks like it does. It has a 40 round magazine and is possibly dual-weildable. - Kenny99 23:12, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
- I don't remember the name, but that's gotta be the machine pistol sidearm. Alex T Snow 08:51, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
- The demo's released today so I'll grab some screencaps from the demo. - Kenny99 15:33, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
Weapon Focus Pics
The weapon focus articles have nice big perfect pictures we could add, except I don't know how. So someone should do it :D Alex T Snow 09:58, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
- Just save the picture by right-clicking on it and save it to your desktop. Then, upload it as usual. - Kenny99 15:31, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
Company Names
We should have them because they are part of the weapon too. Howabout we stop having company names on all the articles then, all our Glocks will be called "17" and "26" and Berettas like "92FS". We'd have titles like "Joe the actor firing a 17" and "Jane the actress reloading a Model 66". That's dumb, and we even know the names of the real ones, these we don't. The names are very relevant. Alex T Snow 12:53, 10 March 2011 (MSK)
- Depends on the weapon; we don't typically do it for heavy weapons (eg M202 FLASH, M72 LAW, etc) and there isn't a lot of point to it if the manufacturer is fictional anyway. Vangelis2 15:05, 10 March 2011 (MSK)
- I dunno, think it's just as useful (or useless) as fictional calibres, or this whole article for that matter. Can we at least have them in the discription then? It's not like Halo where you have to know the backstory to know Misriah Armories makes most of the weapons, in Crysis 2 singleplayer it tells you to company when you go to pick up the weapon. Alex T Snow 01:03, 13 March 2011 (MSK)
- Actually Glocks would be "G17" and "G26". They use that designation, it is not just some Rainbow Six and Modern Warfare 2 thought to avoid copyright issues. Go to glock(dot)com and you can see that they refer to their models with "G+number" or "G+number+C". bozitojugg3rn4ut 02:52, 13 March 2011 (MSK)
- Okay, fair enough, but can we still put them in the descriptions (as opposed to the titles) with the other fictional info? It's not like it's the weapon's history or anything, it's pretty much part of the name, and it's not gonna hurt us to have it. Alex T Snow 10:33, 13 March 2011 (MSK)

SCAR
one thing tha bugs me so far is that there is the atachment opsions on the SCAR. on the SCAR you can only attach under-slung weapons and scopes. the SCARAB can't use under-slung weapons, or the long range scopes, but can use a suppressor. I though the SCAR was the jack of all trade weapon but you need certain version for certain situational. other than that im enjoying the game
- What? Please make sense... Alex T Snow 00:19, 25 March 2011 (CDT)
