|gameinfo = | |gameinfo = Inspired by the anime TV series, Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner gives you control over a lightning-fast mechanized robot. The sequel to Zone of the Enders features new weapons, maneuvers, and tactics to fight an evil militaristic force. You'll travel to expansive cityscapes, enemy fortresses, and even to the depths of space. Now that you have the power to target and destroy hundreds of enemies at the same time, quieting conflict should not be a problem.<br /> | ||
Throughout Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner, the player controls Jehuty, the Orbital Frame piloted by Dingo, from a normally behind-the-back third-person viewpoint that centers itself between the player and enemy when locked on. The gameplay is linear, eschewing the "world map" of Zone of the Enders in favor of consecutive stages in which the player must defeat large amounts of robotic enemies, as well as other Orbital Frames and combat vehicles. The player can fully repair Jehuty by collecting Metatron, and save their progress at the beginning of each stage.<br/> | Throughout Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner, the player controls Jehuty, the Orbital Frame piloted by Dingo, from a normally behind-the-back third-person viewpoint that centers itself between the player and enemy when locked on.

The game’s protagonist is Dingo Egret, a former BAHRAM pilot who, at the beginning of the game, works as an ice miner on the moons of Jupiter. After he finds the orbital frame Jehuty, he is attacked by Nohman and his BAHRAM troops. After his capture, he is mortally wounded, but is saved after Ken Marinaris, a disgruntled member of BAHRAM, has Dingo wired into Jehuty’s life-support system. As the game progresses, Dingo and Ken get to be close friends. | The game’s protagonist is Dingo Egret, a former BAHRAM pilot who, at the beginning of the game, works as an ice miner on the moons of Jupiter.

|Comments=BIOS: EUv2.20, The game is VERY GPU heavy if you upscale above the native resolution. Performance varies between gameplay and cutscenes due to the heavy use of effects if you upscale to a high Resolution (like 6xNative). Settings that affect performance using OGL HW are: Internal Resolution , 8-Bit Textures , Blending Unit Accuracy , FXAA so play around until it runs at a stable Framerate. The issue with light sources seen through solid objects is fixed by using OGL HW with Hardware Depth enabled. | |||

Note: Keep in mind that the game is VERY heavy when changing Internal Resolution & OGL has worse performance for AMD GPU users. It runs a lot faster on NVIDIA cards because OGL is just better supported there for the time being. | |||
