Also, you cannot execute or in any way harm friendly characters, who follow Cash.Ī new feature to Manhunt 2 is the ability to perform Environmental Executions. There is no actual execution for Starkweather, but the ending cutscene still will play once he receives enough damage. However, in Manhunt this system does not involve several characters: for example, you cannot execute Ramirez (he punches Cash and attacks him when player tries to execute), and there are special execution move on Piggsy - when you try to execute either Ramirez or Piggsy, the reticles are always red (as if it was gruesome execution level) and you don't need to wait. Note that on the Wii version of Manhunt 2, all execution cutscenes are censored, to fit regulations by Nintendo.
In Manhunt, the more extreme the execution the higher it ranks on your execution points at the end of the scene. The severity of the execution is dependent on how long you hold the execute button down. Gruesome executions are the most severe of all three execution levels and can be achieved by holding the execution button down for three seconds before releasing. Gruesome - Represented by three red reticles around the hunters head.Violent executions are achieved by keeping the execute button down for two seconds before releasing. Violent - Represented by three yellow reticles around the hunters head.Hasty executions result in shorter, less gruesome executions.
Hasty executions can be achieved by simply tapping the execute button. Hasty - Represented by three white reticles around the hunters head.
