* The ending to the expansion WARHEAD is very satisfying: you've killed the big boss alien, thwarted your human opponent, and secured the relic for your side to study. Then you remember the ending to the main game: the alien specimen you recover will be destroyed when the Constitution is sunk, so this was all for nothing.

** [[spoiler: Psycho showed that he was well capable on modifying his Nanosuit to some degree, as in Crysis Warhead his Nanosuit HUD was displaying "Sykes Mod" all the time; Psycho could have modded the suit to get some of their powers on himself at some point. Or even modified it while he was actually predicting that some one, in this case: CELL, were going to remove the Nanosuit from his body. Also, Psycho's body doesn't show considerable damage that was predicted from just wearing the Nanosuit, when it was disclosed that as the Nanosuit being symbiotic turned them into "Dead-men walking". Psycho is well beyond is 50's and he still shows considerable permormance confronting both CELL and later the Ceph; while many other "elite" CELL soldiers were very-easily killable from any Ceph unit and Rebels themselves.]]

* At one point in the first game, when Nomad [[spoiler: has been captured by the Koreans and brought to General Kyong, Kyong asks Dr. Rosenthal "Would the CIA be interested in a temple? Would the US Military be interested in a temple?" And then he points to Nomad and asks "Would HE be interested in a temple?"]] At first, [[spoiler: it seems weird that Kyong would separate Nomad from the rest of the US military, but when you take the events of the sequels and the origins of the Nanosuit (which the Koreans have) into account, it makes sense. The Koreans somehow got nanotech from Hargreave (perhaps Hargreave himself gave them nanosuit technology as a contingency plan in case the US nanosuit teams could not gain access to the aforementioned "temple" (the Ceph ship). Kyong knows that Hargreave has his own plans concerning the Ceph ship, and Kyong is attempting to hijack those plans so that whatever Hargreave wants, Korea gets instead.]] Of course, [[spoiler: Nomad puts an end to those plans quite quickly, and even if he didn't, Kyong probably wasn't prepared for living Ceph, which is probably a hint that either the nanosuit technology was stolen or that Hargreave didn't trust Kyong enough to tell him as much as Prophet was told.

* In ''Crysis 3'', only Psycho, Dane and Bandit are alive after they were separated from their Nanosuits. While everybody else was killed after operation or died on the process because the suit wasn't supposed to be separated from his owner after they symbiotically bonded with it, and CELL purposedly did not gave them anesthesia because they thinked that it would interfere in the data recovering and study of the Nanosuit internal biological systems.

*** [[spoiler: You never actually scan Psycho with the Prophet's Nanosuit, as he doesn't find a reason to do that, Prophet just loads the "Personallity Profile" from the past to get a correct briefing on what Psycho was actually on ground; while Prophet scanned Rasch to know was what going on , physically, psychologically, biologically and to store that data for further purposes; Psycho was changed from the soldier who works alone, which do not has respect from command, who don't bond with people in the ground easily, to the soldier who has "people", that doesn't work alone and has respect from command; althrough if it was Claire; and he indeed bonded emotionally not only with Claire but also remembered fairly easily what happened on Lingshan on "Only Human" mission, and is surprising to Prophet himself because "that's not the Psycho I used to know". There are moments in which Psycho unexpectedly survives far from what even the Nanosuit soldier was capable of, specifically showing off while Prophet was fighting the Alpha-Ceph, when the Mastermind Ceph took Psycho and his VTOL down in one shot in "Only Human". ]]

* In the original game and its expansion, Nomad and Psycho's Nanosuits have an option of a deep male voice or higher-pitched female voice for the announcements and warnings. That option isn't available in the sequel; the Nanosuit speaks to Alcatraz in a bass rumble which can't be switched. Why? Aside from simplifying the interface selections, 1) unlike Nomad and Psycho (who were presumably issued their Nanosuits and given the option to customize small settings to their liking), Alcatraz is using Prophet's suit, set to Prophet's chosen defaults (including the deep voice), and thrown into combat with no time for minor tweaking; and 2) [[spoiler: the deep voice isn't simply Prophet's ''suit''; it's ''Prophet's voice''.]]

* FridgeBrilliance: Some people wonder why the military in Crysis 2 is [[spoiler:still trying to nuke the Ceph]] after what happened in Crysis. Seeing how the Aliens needed the sphere to absorb the energy and the fact that they were vulnerable [[spoiler:to nuclear explosions]] without it, it actually makes sense.
* Prophet [[spoiler:tried to warn everyone about the oncoming Ceph invasion, just like his name indicates.]]
* The Ceph powered armors/exoskeletons from ''Crysis 2'' are bipedal and have "arms", which some people hated because it made the Ceph look less "alien". Now while the legs still look like legs because that is the best "structure" to walk/run/jump on land, the arms are actually just clawed cybernetic tentacles, just like Scouts and Hunters have tentacles in ''Crysis'', probably because the Ceph would rather model their powered armor's limbs to match something they actually ''know'' how to use (e.g. tentacles), as opposed to human-like arms.
* In ''Crysis'', the navy scientists are astounded that Prophet was not only able to make alien tech (the MOAC) work, but also plug it into his nanosuit to use its power supply. Of course it all makes sense now that we know [[spoiler: the Nanosuit tech is retro-engineered Ceph technology]]. This is even stated directly in the comics.
