We’ve all been calling itThe Conduit 2, but apparently we’re damn wrong. “The” isn’t cool anymore, and anybody who uses it is a big square. From now on, High Voltage’s sequel toThe Conduitis shedding the formalities and will henceforth be known simply asConduit 2.
“It’sConduit 2. The ‘THE‘ got a bit clunky — too much of a mouthful — and we always referred to it asConduit 2internally. It flows better and just kinda stuck,” explained producer Jason Olson. Efficiency for the win!
As well as clarifying the name, Olson also revealed a little more about the game’s multiplayer, explaining how perks will be able to create a variety of classes and switch between two different perk sets during a match: “If I wanted to be a medic, for example, I’d probably pick Reverse Damage (Shooting allies heals them), Field Medicine (Doubles revive times), and Robot Legs (Unlimited sprint) among my perks. If I wanted to be a tank, I’d pick Heavy Armor (Damage reduction at a cost to movement speed), Ammo Belt (Two extra magazines), and Improved Bullet Damage.”
