I was when I wasn't playing that much... I'm seeing more and more flaws as the time passes. For example melee a guy 3 times point blank and still die? He wasn't even using Max Armor..... WTF

the multiplaayer is like a mix of halo and cod.

I absolutely love this game, but the connectivity issues are unbearable at times. People that are able to take 3 bursts from Grendel while they're unarmoured and still kick your a** with a quick spray from the Feline or Scarab is a bit annoying. I don't like this "selling broken games and then try to repair them after the release"-business model.
Would you rather buy games that are broken and not repaired at all?

I would rather buy a game that worked from when I bought it. I don't think I'm asking for much really.

I agree. I would've have rather waited another month or 2 delay of the release of this game than get it in this current condition. Too many negative factors blocking out the true potential of this game. This game is a love-hate relationship right now with same premise of crazy girl/ great six scenario.

Haha, I would take the crazy girl/ great six scenario over the love-hate Crysis 2 ordeal any day lol

I'd rather buy games that work on day one, but maybe I'm old fashioned? You should expect more than either a product that doesn't work or a product that might work some day. I understand that Crytek is a business and needs to be run like one, and the release of games can't be put on hold indefinitely, but Crysis 2 was released too early without being properly tested. Maximize profits then patch the hell out of it later on.

This game could be revolutionary - but it depends if the patch is successful on one thing :

Lag

If Crytek can eradicate the majority of laggy games (you know the ones, where even the kill cams are lagging) then this game will most probably be the best FPS out there.

P.S. I am running 30 Meg Broadband Fibre Optic, before anyone questions my connection and broadband capabilities.

Epic Online, Lag issues not really a problem but I do get them

+1 agreed...i love it too...it's refreshing.[/quote]

explain how its refreshing?

as the game doesn't even work right, so if this is refreshing to you then god help gaming![/quote]

Dude, If you don't like the game, Don't join the website :/

I've been having a lot of fun on MP. I have the occasionally laggy game or WTF experience but that happens in all FPS. I'm sure a patch will come and it will improve but in the meantime I'm learning the gameplay and getting better while having more fun than when I started.

I'm sooo hooked, if my apartment-mate wasn't years behind the gaming schedule and hogging my 360 to play mass effect 2 I'm pretty certain I'd never be seen again. The Crytek 3 engine is incredible, the reason why MW2 players don't tend to like it is because they're too used to being able to shoot around the person to kill them, whereas in C2 you have to be dead accurate. Also the complete change to extremely tactical gameplay is a refreshing change: rather than running around stabbing people quickly and moving on it's better to get the stealth kill, and instead of running away and hiding behind a wall, run behind a car and teach them the true meaning of vehicular homicide.

The only thing bringing the opinion of C2 down is PC players, not to say they're whining (their complaints are, unfortunately, true) but you can't hack as easily on consoles as compared to PC. Also, fighting PC hacking game is an expensive, time-consuming arms race that Crytek will probably try to win (but using other games as precedent, it will never end).

As for console players, it just takes some getting used to; everything is dependent on where you are in-game: Air stomp seems more effective if you've fallen further after activating it, cloaking is best used when you're behind someone but never when you're in front of them, and armor will slow down your speedy escape to cover. The use of upgradeable modules is classic, but their variations and abundance makes room for each and every player's style: don't like proximity alarm? set up a class to follow your enemy's footsteps around walls and get a quick and easy neck break, prefer all-out assault gameplay and rarely use stealth? (but seriously, who doesn't get extreme satisfaction from assassinating an entire group of enemies?) try out the C2 version of scrambler, armor up, and unload.

My main point is that C2 is a completely different, refreshing game that completely changes first person shooters from hereon out. You can't compare it to games like MW2 or Battlefield because it's just too different, and I think it's safe to say that's a good thing.

I think its still an amazing game despite the flaws, which have been blown way out of proportion by everyone on these forums. I like the Xbox.com forums, they are a lot more positive

Best game ever and once they patch it, it will be even better
