May 05, 2010  Review by Kristan Reed, Contributor. The hugely ambitious Lost Planet 2 has been re-envisioned as a four-man multiplayer adventure in a variety.

It’s no secret that Capcom has been moving towards co-op games with their recent offerings, and Lost Planet 2 seems to have the most emphasis on co-op play of their releases so far. The campaign of the original Lost Planet could only be played in single player, and it was a lot of fun that way, although the game did have its problems. Since the release of the original game, Resident Evil 5 and to a lesser degree Dead Rising 2 have encouraged you to play the game with a friend.

Lost Planet 2 takes this idea to a whole new level, and designs the entire campaign around four-player co-op. Really, single player isn’t even an option; the atrocious friendly AI and mission design make this all too clear. It is possible to play through the game solo with as many as three AI companions, but this will serve only to make some of the missions nearly impossible on all but the easiest difficulty setting.

Some missions, for instance, will have you and your team capture a number of different control points across the map and then defend them for a couple of minutes. If you are playing with friends these missions are fairly straightforward; you simply divide your team to defend the multiple points. If you are playing by yourself, however, the dumb as bricks AI will simply follow you around leaving the other points undefended so that enemy soldiers can come in and take them, stopping the clock and causing you to return and capture the point.

When you go to re-capture this point, enemy soldiers will go and capture the other point, meaning you have to run around the map trying to defend all of the points at once, which you will find to be impossible on all but the easiest difficulty setting. Other missions are at least playable in singleplayer, but your AI companions are likely to run off randomly and get themselves killed repeatedly. They will often stand around doing nothing, and will never attempt to enter and pilot any kind of vehicle. Once you do recruit some friends to play with you, gameplay improves dramatically. Sadly, doing this isn’t as easy as it should be.

You can only join another player’s game if you have advanced as far as they have in the campaign. There is also no way of joining a game in progress. If you want to play through the entire campaign in co-op, the best way to do this is to find three friends and play through the entire game with them.

It is worth it to do so however, since the entire game is designed around co-op, from the mission design to the secondary weapon each player gets that shoots thermal energy. Missions are also chopped up into bits; they are divided into episodes, sub divided into chapters, and then divided into missions. Each mission will take from 5-15 minutes to complete, and there are usually 2 or 3 in each chapter.

There are generally four or five chapters in an episode, and there are 6 episodes in total. This is also an arcade game through and through, you are timed and graded on your performance on each level, and each mission begins with the words “Ready, Set, GO!” flashing on your screen.

Lost Planet 2 Review

Hell is other people. Misery loves company.

Everything's better with friends. Poor third-person shooter Lost Planet 2 sits somewhere in the middle of these extremes, trying to work out what went wrong.Unfortunately, the answer is simple: it doesn't understand the difference between being a great singleplayer shooter and an addictive cooperative multiplayer shooter. Whenever it turns its attention to one side, it chokes on problems from the other, making neither as satisfying as they deserve to be.When it works, there's plenty to like.

Lost Planet 2 is a great-looking gun-game, with excellent pyrotechnics, some phenomenally cool set-pieces, and unapologetically gargantuan bosses of the kind that we just don't get to see enough of on the PC. God only knows what's going on in the story, full of acronyms and alien monsters and constantly jumping around between sets of basically identical characters on the no-longer-frozen world of E.D.N. III, but it hardly matters. You pilot stompy mechs, and they make stuff explode. Who needs a reason to enjoy big explosions?

Strange fruitUnfortunately, the campaign that was meant to distinguish it from the crowd ends up being by far its weakest element. For starters, there's no singleplayer mode, only the option for an all-AI team which doesn't take orders and has the collective intelligence of a kumquat. These grunts are fine at basic enemy killing, but any area that demands even a little actual teamplay instantly becomes an exercise in pure frustration. The only good thing about playing solo like this is that you can watch the hamfisted but important cutscenes through to the end without being peer-pressured into hitting the skip button.With other humans on board, Lost Planet 2 becomes closer to the game it was meant to be, but still can't resist shooting itself in the foot. For starters, there's a limit to how many times you can die and respawn, which means lots of replaying thanks to both accidents and appallingly explained objectives. Instead of encouraging you to act as a team, it just makes you cross every time someone screws up, and the price of failure is far too steep for pick-up groups. Missions go on for far too long, fighting the tougher bosses quickly becomes tiring, and the increasingly cheap deaths mean that your best chance of getting satisfaction out of the later levels is to buy a keyboard that looks fun to smash.The most frustrating part of all this is that it's not the core game at fault so much as the often silly rules laid over the top.

The obvious comparison is that where our own Left 4 Dead 2 went out of its way to be an approachable co-op shooter, Lost Planet 2 just shrugs and tells you to suck it up. That's hardly uncommon in imported games like this, but it could have met us closer to halfway.
