N-22 is a character in CrossFire, available only in CF Vietnam.

Description[]

N-22 was created by Black List scientists in hidden cyber factory in The Mine, but Global Risk task forces launch an assault on the factory and captured the robot production line so it was used by both sides to replace soldiers on human battlefield. It is the first and the only character that's not a human.

History[]

After the 2010 Knife incident, FPS games are criticized a lot about human killing - even after the Knife had been removed, human characters were still present, which was a problem since there is no way to remove default characters. In an attempt to cool down the media, VTC decided to update a non-human character, specifically "Robot", so CF became a "non-human shooting game" (Even though not all players may buy it). N-22 was the answer, and surprisingly, it actually worked - the media eventually left CF alone after N-22 was released. The government still watches however, so all subsequent characters are put into Black Market as a countermeasure - this way, not all players can own "human characters", so CF is still considered "non-human shooting game"  in Vietnam.

Trivia[]

  • In Mutation Mode, N-22 shares the same mutants counterpart as that of the others (except if they bought Maiden or others). Technically it's not possible for robots to get infected because they are not human to begin with, but this is simply due to mechanic limitation.
  • When shooting at this character, the character still shows blood, even though this character is a robot. But just like above, this is simply due to mechanic limitation (even though the blood effect from Shadow Warriors would fit for this character).
  • This character has been highly requested by Chinese players for a long time, but due to exclusivity deal in CF Vietnam, CF China never gets it. However, CF China did get a Remastered version as of March 2021, updated as ZM Rank Reward, followed by N-22-Cyberpunk as a skilled character.
  • Both GR and BL model is simply recolored with some minor differences, also for the HUD in-game. Interestingly, the HUD is actually a retextured version of BL SWAT's HUD.
  • Strangely, N-22 doesn't have it owns voices, instead it shared the same English voices with most characters, which makes it weird since N-22 is a robot and shouldn't have human voices.
  • After the July 2020 update in CF Vietnam, due to the new Accessory System update, the GR HUD is glitched and show long black sleeves and a brighter hand model.
  • In a move that can only be described ridiculous, CF Vietnam put N-22 into a My Gacha cash capsule in July 2023 update, making this character the only one available in the Item Shop AND Cash capsule.
