IGN: Any hints to the storyline? Recap where we left off and where the story is heading this time around. Now, some enemies are equipped with thermal and night vision, making them deadlier in darker areas and places with reduced visibility due to smoke or dust. In RSV, the enemies would throw smoke grenades at you and essentially blind themselves because they couldn't see through it. IGN: Give us some more details on the "improved AI" of the enemies? Will they now have an answer to the breach and clear move that seemed to dominate them in the first game? Jean-Pascal Cambiotti: The enemy AI has been improved greatly. This makes for an interesting tactical decision between protection and mobility. By introducing character customization into single-player we've also given you the possibility of equipping body armor, which you can swap out at refitting stations. Your teammates will also take on an appearance similar to your own. The way you customize your character also affects your Rainbow teammates. We tailored the story around the fact that you can play either a male or female character. We didn't just plug character customization into the single-player. You create one character, which continually evolves and unlocks gear whether you're playing alone, in co-op or against other players online. Is it going to be identical to the system we saw in the first game's multiplayer, only ported to the campaign? Or will there be some sort of new structure? Jean-Pascal Cambiotti: Character customization, known as Persistent Elite Creation, is available in both single-player and multiplayer, across all game modes. IGN: Shed a bit more light on the new character customization for both single- and multiplayer. Every mission looks completely different, and plays differently too. You'll lead your team through areas such as a monorail station, a convention center, back allies and an "old school" strip club. You will experience the grittier parts of the city and go deeper into the seedier areas. IGN: What new Vegas "hot spots" can we expect to see? Will we revisit any old favorites from the first game? Jean-Pascal Cambiotti: RSV2 explores completely different areas of Las Vegas and beyond. You also have more control over your team and can use them to perform new actions. They can provide you with intel that allows you to make the best tactical decision for the situation at hand. Your teammates play a bigger role in how you approach a hostile situation. That said, we do have some cool new features that improve on the planning phase. Lastly, you lead your team throughout new parts of Las Vegas to finally conclude the story. You customize and evolve your character in all game modes and you unlock new gear and weapons through a new rewards system that rewards you using your tactics. So now there's a real sense of purpose for playing tactically. We also focused on enriching the overall story experience.
No longer will a flimsy piece of drywall completely protect you from a high-powered rifle. That said, we've done some improvements to the weapons mechanics, such as re-balancing the weapons and adding bullet penetration to the mix. IGN: Could you give us a rundown of the HUD and any controller changes? Jean-Pascal Cambiotti: The gameplay mechanics are very similar since they worked extremely well on RSV. However, with the addition of the sprint feature, you'll be able to move quickly from cover to cover. IGN: Any refinements or changes to the cover system that so many people enjoyed from the first game? Jean-Pascal Cambiotti: The cover system works in the same manner as the one in RSV.
