Serious Sam 2 Remake / Remaster ?

[Dieg0Gothic | TTV]

Hey Croteam, maybe it's time for that?

[voland62]

Or open sources, just like with SS1, after SS3 release...

Totally agree with that. I don't know why this didn't happen long ago...
Played this game years ago. Restarted it yesterday with a friend in co-op. Damn! This game is so much fun! Because of the vehicles I think it is even better than 1st and 2nd encounter.

Croteam stated that remastering SS2 would take as much effort as creating it from stratch, because it uses an old iteration of the engine. Not gonna happen. A remake, maybe, but I really don't think its a priority for them now.

I thought they were rebooting Serious Sam 2?

I'll be honest with you, I don't think that will ever happen. If you want to play SS2 in a new way I recommend a Mod called, Serious Sam 2 Renovation, it is very good, it improves the gore, the model of the weapons (and gives them arms) and I think some small balance changes.

hell yea!

Would be nice if they continue the path SS2 left.
I like everything about ss2, from jokes, one-liners, funny secrets, to gameplay and so..

ss2 definetly need remaster because the old engine bugs and issues isn't bearable

[Snark]

All they need to do is make the SED2 able to load existing enemy animations, skeletons, meshes, etc. Basically open it up like the later editors so it's easier to mod the game and have workshop support. That way we can make our own remaster.

Danny, I know that my word is unlikely to affect anything, but I think that you are making a big mistake if you do not reboot cc2. this game is good, some people didn't like it because it's too cartoonish but there are many beautiful, unique and interesting levels I love the levels on the planet magnor, Sirius, elenier there are funny enemies such as albino, corpse with minigun, bull droids the game has vehicles and turrets, which are much better implemented than in ss4, a wonderful double-barreled shotgun if you don't want to reboot, you can transfer some individual levels or planets, make a pack of ss2 dlc maps for ss4

I just don't want all the content of this game to be forgotten, something definitely deserves restoration

Croteam could do a remake using 4 sam assets. Well, add something new. For example, tse hd came out a year after tfe hd. Moreover, ss4 has a transport system and npc! (as in ss2)

they can transfer levels from ss2 like this guy( from video )to fusion, and update textures
some enemies can be replaced with enemies from ss4, for example, take witches from ss4. Orc soccer players replace those dudes with hammers, drones from ss4 , balls with spikes from ss the last hope

1 it will generate income
2 fans will get the hd version
3 it won't take 7-10 years for a new game ( 2 years maximum, maybe even 1 year )
4 the plot of the game can be linked to ss5 - end of ss2 hd , meeting with mental in the end of game ( finally ), one more reason to wait serious sam 5

(so we get some kind of continuation of the plot after tse( finally not prequel), leading to part 5)
5 is much easier than coming up with a new game from 0

The game even has already written music, levels that just need to be redone (I think you can take everything except the giant garbage can)

I would transfer most of the levels and music from the game. Half of the enemies would be replaced by enemies from ss4.
about weapons, I would leave the Uzi and the parrot with the bomb.

Croteam : serious sam 2 was a mistake

meanwhile serious sam 2 in steam
88% reviews are positive ( 6400 reviews)

just serious sam 2 was added late to steam (
so the number of reviews would be much higher )

seriou sam 4 - 82% ( 5000 reviews )


if this game was a mistake, it would have 30-50% positive reviews. It's not even 60 or 70, but almost 90%

If croteam made it less cartoonish and added more old enemies, then the game would have 95-98% positive reviews

it's my messages from this topic - https://steamcommunity.com/app/564310/discussions/0/1471966894869635283/?ctp=80

I want that too!

ss2 reboot was planned but it's not going to happen anymore. They said they gave up from it. So enjoy ss2 with ss2 renovation mod. That's the closest you'll have from ss2 but improved.

Not so much a remake, but it brings SS2 more in line with TFE/TSE. I think it looks amazing and it's what SS2 should have been in the first place
