When crysis was first released, I remeber having initial problems that caused massive annoyance. I had installed crysis and allowed it to install gamespy.
After following the prompts for account details, i went to sighn in to the game, it wasnt working, after lots of messing around i realised that i had created 2 accounts one is gamespy the other was crysis. I also had huge difficulty recovering the passwords, and also couldnt make another account because it said my email was already used. I was really angry at the time because id waited so long for this game.

Eventually I got it sorted, and realised that gamespy was useless and annoying in my opinion.Therefore ive never had it installed since.

I really hope I dont have these irritations again. I only want one easy to setup account without confusing extra software

I sound so grumpy. I was actually really pleased with everything else:)

I hope Crytek does their own server networking this time around, or outsources it to a better company.

Gamespy is simply subpar. Sometimes the server crashes and you can't play for hours... I admit it doesn't happen often, but that is unacceptable for Crysis 2, especially for the consoles, no matter how rare it is.

yh gamespy is a pile of trash tbh, however if the CM's can build up a better relationship with them and have a no-nonsense approach then our issues should be handled better.

As you may have noticed the cracked servers problem has been dealt with much more effectively in the recent months.

I imagine the consoles will use the respective proprietary systems for MP, whatever they are. Not sure about PC.
