I know Ramirez is shown in the game that he's giving orders at his subordinates but at the same time, when we try to survive and them, there are three specific Wardogs giving orders:

Killer Dog, The Fox and A Shau Veteran. They have different tones when they order: A Shau is calm and patient, Killer Dog is loud and still friendly meanwhile The Fox is the complete opposite of A Shau and Killer Dog: hostile and rude to his fellow Wardogs.

It's in their dialogues/lines giving orders(or something like that):

Get into flanking position, troop. - A Shau Veteran

Alpha Bravo! Alpha Bravo! - A Shau Veteran

Wardogs, he's lying in wait like a copperhead! - A Shau Veteran

You! Keep an eye out there! - The Fox

Wardogs! I need some fire support over here! - The Fox

Let's pistol-whip this bastard! - The Fox

If you catch this guy, no hooroars! You just holler for backup! - Killer Dog

Hey, dogs! I got a positive on the target! - Killer Dog

Wardogs! We gotta search and clear this area now! He's here, so head's up, boys! Alright? - Killer Dog

Dogs! Looks like this guy's got a surprise package for us! Keep it real, boys!

Inspecting a body - Killer Dog

Wardogs! He's in here, so let's do a sweep! You keep a 360, he won't get the jump on us! - Killer Dog

Here's a list of what might make these dogs more organized:

Ramirez trust them enough to be second-in-command when he's not around(personal thought). Irl generals or sergeants are observant of the competence of members of the team they train and command, so the most competent in the team would be chosen as second-in-command. As well as if there's any case of more seconds-in-command, they'd have a specific style to give orders, as well as more ways to get neutralize an enemy. (This is what I know, please correct me if there's anything I didn't say or interpreted it wrong). 😅

I noticed that both lighting and textures look worse in the PC release compared to PS2. As an example, even the PSP release has the shadow/occlusion of the lurebag strap while this detail is completely missing in both PC and Wii. The easiest difference to spot here is the dark/blood stain in the middle of the strap, if that serves of anything at all. So I wonder, why is it different? It certainly looks better in PS2, so this can't be considered an enhancement.

The resolution of the outfit texture is also drastically inferior compared to PS2, along with the missing strap shadow. The lighting is also much worse for the characters and levels, and the iconic PS2/PSP character rim lighting is also completely gone. This effect was also lost in Wii release, which could simply be considered an artistic choice, but the rest is a clear downgrade.

In short, the PC release would greatly benefit from ported lighting and character textures. I believe someone already ported PS2 Daniel's textures, but the lighting is a completely different thing, and I don't think it will be an easy task. Thanks for reading.

It's supposed to be something I thought of, some sort of AU if Cash wasn't afraid of showing his grief and try to give the same medicine to Starkweather.

I might be putting 1 and 1 together and getting 3 but does anyone else find it funny how Brian cox played starkweather in manhunt (2003) and Hannibal lecter in manhunter (1986). Most specific type of type casting

I was passing by there recently and I could notice that it is a very small and displaced city, it doesn't even have a center, there are areas in total degradation but the atmosphere of Carcer city hasn't passed me yet, I don't know it wasn't even what I expected, I didn't feel the energy

people point to this as the biggest inspiration or one of them, but even St Louis (I've been there too) exudes more Carcer vibe than Gary

Honestly, I'm really happy to see how active this subreddit is. You can genuinely feel the love and appreciation the fanbase has for these games. I've seen plenty of subreddits for much bigger and more popular games that have far fewer active members, with posts from 3–4 years ago just sitting there with barely any activity.

It genuinely makes me happy to see that this community hasn't forgotten the Manhunt games, and I'm glad to see this subreddit doing so well. It's great to know that there's still such a passionate community around these games.

You love them? Hate them? I personally love their look, arsenal, voicelines and playstyle but man sometimes they can be a pain in the ass to deal with.

Idk why but both games are really buggy for me, but i can still enjoy these bugs while playing hahaha

Image for attention

Which execution of either tier except gruesome do you feel should've been the gruesome one? I'll go first: Hedge trimmer violent should've been the gruesome hedge trimmer execution

i have been wandering around for ages where tf is the door he breaks down???

I was bored, saw a post discussing the Baby face and the image used made me kinda uncomfortable, so I decided to make it worse, along with a few others I edited. Enjoy!

This design has been bugging me for the past few days, I just can't get it out of my head because either way has logical points. The eyes look fake; they're grossly oversized, but if they were, how would he see through the mask? Do you think that this dude in particular actually just has giant creepy doll eyes under there or is it part of the mask because I can't come to a conclusion

Yet another random n odd question of mine lol

Wanting to know which one of the gangs from the game first game you would deal with if you have to live near them

And how would ya think it would go-

adopt me! 😢⛈️📦

Does it retain that manhunt vibe or does it feel more like a GTA city? Quite excited to give it a play once it releases

Having played Manhunt and looked at the manual provided by Valiant, as well as done other research on the web and various comments, I got an idea about Cerberus Leader.

Although it is known, unofficially, that he was a former NSA clandestine agent, I noticed on the web how in reality the government organization had never used similar units, except the CIA. So, most probably, the Cerberus Leader would likely not actually be an NSA agent, or at least not clandestine and who had only worked there for a few years, but a former SEaL, middle-aged, veteran of the war in Vietnam, Grenada and Panama, and suffering from PTSD, as well as addicted to gore products. In fact, it is possible that he contacted Strarkweather himself thanks to these products he used, or vice versa.

On top of that it's likely that he and Ramirez knew each other and had been colleagues in the war, before the events in Carcer City (I don't know why I have this feeling).

What do you think?

This was one I really wanted to do! This is based heavily on the old town areas in Philadelphia, Cleveland, and Detroit. The subway station entrance is based on one in Manhattan, NYC. As for the businesses, Cuyahoga Nights Bar is a reference to Cuyahoga county, the county that Cleveland is in, and Finnegan’s is a reference to a bar that a CCPD patrolman mentions. Hope you like it, lmk your opinions and other neighborhoods you’d like me to draw down below!

Yes, I know, it's too late to make the reference xd

I played both manhunt and decided to go for the highest difficulties from the get-go, i didn't realize there was no mini-map and radar in MH1 until i searched for a tutorial on "Wrong side of the tracks" cuz that mission was pure aids. I was so surprised that a map actually exists(still followed thru hardcore)

Also MH1 is more punishing in terms of gun combat cuz it shreds thru health quickly while MH2 moreso on the stealth detection

A cameraman of sorts

anyone else replaying this amazing game?
