Welcome back to Rapture BioShock 2
Welcome back to Rapture. That’s the first thing to remember when you saw the title of Bioshock 2. Bioshock 2 takes the settings in the underwater city Rapture in 1968 (eight years after the first Bioshock). This time we played as “Big Daddy” is slightly different from the first series. For the series has never played Bioshock, Big Daddy is not the ordinary man who used wetsuits, but a creature of the organs of it’s body became one with these wetsuits.
Now Big Daddy woke up with lost memory conditions. All that remained to him was he must find a “Little Sister” who came with him. In this game trailer, shown little scene where the Big Daddy who managed to save a Little Sister attacked by a monster called “Big Sister”. From here, begins the adventures of Big Daddy and Little Sister to fight the Big Sister who will be responsible for the destruction of the city was under water.
This game is a First Person Shooter games with a horror setting. As Big Daddy, you’ll explore the underwater city of Rapture and against the Splicer (monsters contained in this Rapture). In this exploration, you are given various kinds of weapons like machine gun, shotgun, and so forth. But the one weapon that caught my attention was the “Drill” a giant drill.
With this giant drill, you don’t need to sneak behind Splicer to hit them with a key in English as the first Bioshock. You live close to the enemy, and zwiiing, Splicer will be covered in blood in seconds. This weapon is very useful if you are to save ammunition or startled by an enemy attack that suddenly appeared.
In addition to weapons, you also equipped with Plasmids and Tonics. Plasmids and Tonics are genetic liquid capable of making our character has a super ability both active and passive. Plasmid can provide telekinesis ability, while Tonics can add speed, attack strength and defense.
Unlike the predecessor game, this time you can use a weapon and a plasmid simultaneously. This enables to destroy the enemy in a short time. For example, you can make enemy paralyzed with an electric attack, and then destroy it by using a drill, and many more combinations that you can do with these two skills.
The enemies in this game is roughly equal to the first Bioshock. Only, now the Splicer can carry weapons, throwing grenades, so do teleport. In addition, there are several large Splicer called “Brutes”. They will throw big things to defeat us in any way. Well, even so, with a myriad of weapons and abilities possessed by Big Daddy, I’m sure that all gamers can fight the Splicer easily. That is what occurred in my mind before meeting with the Big Sisters.
Big Sisters is a terrible enemy in the world of Bioshock 2. She has a high speed, and appear suddenly behind you to attack indiscriminately. Big Sisters have the ability to suck Plasmids ours, restore telekinesis attacks, and also suck Splicer (either living or dead) to restore their health points.
The signs of the emergence of Big Sisters can also be easily recognizable, you need to see the window, and sometimes you’ll see a red eye stalking you from afar, and when you’ve heard a shattered window, be prepared to deal with Big Sisters (oh Noooo). These moments are now capable of making us the trauma in play Bioshock 2.
As Big Daddy, you can attack another Big Daddy Little Sister carrying. After you managed to defeat the Big Daddy, will appear the option to suck the Little Sister to get the ADAM (useful for buying Plasmid and Tonic), or to adopt them. If you choose to adopt this Little Sister, they would lead you toward the corpse that is where they could make more ADAM for us (tuh kan, a good man whose name would benefit deh). Little Sister in this time to extract ADAM, you must protect it from attacks of the Splicers. After he finished collecting ADAM, you can choose to save or suck to get more ADAM.
You can use this on a machine ADAM Gardens gatherers who are in town. When you choose to absorb or save the Little Sister, usually a red light will be visible in the window indicating that Big Sister will soon be upon us (what do you waiting for, run! Johnny Run! 
). Gameplay like this makes Bioshock 2 be an FPS game interesting and exciting.
Like the previous series, this game has graphics that dark setting, gloomy and terrible. Well, this game also has a retro graphics quality makes this game horrible plus (what could be scarier than old thing? * Bing *).
If you compare this game with its predecessor, actually 2 Bioshock graphics quality is not much different from the first Bioshock. Not that this game has bad graphics quality, because quality of graphics in the first Bioshock was already look fantastic, so changes in Bioshock 2 is a less visible.
However, if you look carefully, Bioshock 2 has a level of detail is better than its predecessor. This game also has the option to optimize the frame rate. So you can choose, play with high detail but rather drop the frame rate, or vice versa.
Background in Bioshock 2 is filled with shades of horror that are all over town. And if you look carefully, the condition of the city under water is seen more broken and looks like a city that neglected for many years.
One of the interesting things from this game, as Big Daddy, we have the ability to see the city from the sea, so that our perspective will make this city a quite different and beautiful.
Simple and exciting, that’s one of the first comments that came out when I was listening to the BGM of this Bioshock 2. In most existing video, you’ll enjoy the BGM songs retro ’60s (as settingnya too much for the year’s). Well, this is not much different from the first series which has a similar method, but still, it’s good.
In addition, the quality of voice acting and sound effects in this game sounds pretty good. I could hear the echoes Little Sister when calling us, the monster’s voice cried when stunned until death, until the sound effects when I pierce the enemy’s head using the drill bit (ahem, pardon me). Nothing more, nothing less, 2K Marin processing sound in this game pretty well.
Well, if you play Bioshock 2, you usually only after a story which is one of the main attraction of the horror-themed FPS game. And, in accordance with existing practice, after a one-time ended, this game will go into the game closet and decorate it with attractive artnya box. However, Bioshock 2 has a very interesting feature and it can make us addicted to this game than his Story mode. These features is the multiplayer feature.
Multiplayer mode, You get a costume “Big Daddy” that spread in different locations on each level. If you find these costumes, you can choose to be a Big Daddy who has great power, but can not use Plasmids. If you lose when a Big Daddy, you’ll go back into your characters, and costumes are gone again and placed in random places until it was rediscovered by a player.
Multiplayer mode is very interesting that this gives Longevity levels high enough for the game Bioshock 2, and can make us become addicted in playing this game.
For a horror FPS, Bioshock 2 has a solid design and eerie. Atmosphere and conditions in the city of Rapture makes my heart beat faster when playing this game. The design of the enemies, weapons, until the Big Daddy was made in such a way as to show that this game setting is in the 60s. Little Sister that we should save only made me quite frightened by his eyes that reminded me of the demons that are in Japanese horror movies
Gameplay from Bioshock 2 is interesting and exciting to make your breath does not stop at all when play. Well, the feelings you felt when drilling opponent by using the Drill is an experience that (maybe) fun for some people (including me!).
The existence of multiplayer features that have a lot of this mode makes Bioshock 2 a game that can be played in a long time. Even with a story in the multiplayer mode, this mode becomes more attractive compared with Story fashion.
After playing Bioshock 2 some time, I feel grateful to the world that I occupy today. Well, maybe 2K Marin insert a moral message to us to maintain an environment that does not become a ghost town like the Rapture (oh, God forbid!). Well, for a horror game fans, this game is a game that you should play.
Fame: 2%
