I always wondered if there was a hidden way to get access to Cryptography II, using knowledge from the first course. Never could find any hint for that or anything.

That would have been fantastic!

I’ll believe it when I see it. I took the I course (which was excellent) 6 or 7 years ago and gave up on II after the third or fourth cancellation. Should also be goo if it ever actually happens.

Duke Nukem Forever finally came out 14 years later, so maybe we are half way there.

That seems like an ill omen because DNF was not only years late it was also not very good when it shipped.

I think people are hoping for Cryptography II to be more Terminator 2 than Duke Nukem Forever in terms of sequels.

Same here, Cryptography I was amazing but I've given up all hope of II. It's too bad, things had just started to get interesting.

Oh wow.

I loved Crypto 1, and was one of the small % that finished it and did all the extra credit on its first run in ... 2012 IIRC.

Been looking forward to part 2 ever since but I will admit having given up waiting!

It's been invaluable.

Let's not lose hope!
