Airborne drones can be launched within a friendly NA and gather reconnaissance and may even carry light weapons (they can be customized), but can be spotted and shot down by enemies. Hounds now have a greater ability to impact the battlefield. There are also lasers and CIWS turrets which can counter the new focus on guided missile warfare. There is also a greater focus on the heat-seeking missiles with many more Hound parts carrying them and them overall having better range and tracking mechanics. Guided missiles can be launched at long range from Hounds and flown remotely anywhere inside the NA, and can sometimes carry low-yield nuclear payloads, though these are very expensive in terms of weight. These include Railguns, a new type of large weapon which use a lot of power from the hounds' generator and have a slow reload but are very powerful weapons which do not arc and have the potential to kill a hound in only a few shots. New weapons types have been added into the game. Jump jets, which lacked in the original game now take the form of rockets and are greatly improved with many more maps set to take advantage of their abilities. Hexapod (six legged) bases are an even more extreme form of the Quadreped bases from the original game, being even slower and heavier but able to carry upwards of 8,000 tons of weight in some instances.īearing bases are wheeled bases resting on spherical wheels allowing them to move in any direction and drift or slide with extreme ease. In addition to the original types (Hovering, Wheeled, Tracked, Bipedal, Inverse and Quadreped) there are new types of hound bases.ĭigigrade mobility bases introduce triple-jointed bipedal legs which provide a balance between the speed of bipedal bases and the stability of inverse bases. The game also featured an ability to publicly share Hounds online with others, even across platform. Players have the option to upload their profile Chrome Hounds (Given they still own an XBOX 360 and can connect to the internet) and can upload the schematics online, then download them to Chrome Hounds 2, taking their money and purchased parts and receiving a special "veteran" medal based on their rank in the original game. However all of the parts from chromehounds 1 exist in the game, albeit slightly rebalanced and are unlocked from the start (in the online mode). There are a number of new game mechanics brought on by the new parts. Most hound parts can be purchased with in game credits, but some can only be unlocked by completing in game challenges. The Garage screen from the original game has been kept, however the ability to customize hounds is far deeper than before, though it is set up in much the same way.
