Cry-Adam can you talk to your community and brief us about the evolution of this problem and a fix?

I'm sure its GaMESPY.

Am sure its your Gamespy nickname u need to enter i have had this problem since release and just got it working doing that, now i csnt connect to a game but 1 problem at a time eh (((((

It's a terrific game, I'm just mad that I can't play multiplayer after I got a good taste of it. What a tease.

Just let us know You're still working on it Crytek.
Cause right now I'm pointing a gun at my head, You're forcing me to kill myself, I'm gonna die so young
Just make a quick patch to the login issue ok?

Am sure its your Gamespy nickname u need to enter i have had this problem since release and just got it working doing that, now i csnt connect to a game but 1 problem at a time eh (((((

I used one of my Gamespy Nickname and gamespy password and it worked. But i don't have the limited edition contents --.-- but this is another problem

Could you tell me how to delete a account created under in-game account creation ?

I had same prob but just changed gamesas password here and it logged me in first time

Come on 5 days after and nothing? At least tell something so we can know what to expect :/.

Same here. Release date was week ago and still no fix? Frustrating. Not the problem itself but how many time it takes them to fix it. It can't be that hard for a multi-million corporation?

I was able to create an account in-game using my same Email address as i have used for this gamesas account but my limited edition content is on this account which i can't log in to and im too scared to use my cd-key for the other account i made in-game.

well to say this is a joke, is not enough!

1:why release a game thats not even finnished? didnt the beta/demo tell u this!????
2:why do all software house seem to put all the focus and money into consoles?
3:what kind of support are we as the people who buy this and butter YOR bread even getting?

as with the demo i cant even get online!!!
single player...............................
i dont wanna collapse on the floor having a seizure or at the same time screw up my vision!
what are you doing about this? i paid ￡35 for a svcky 1/2 finished ceta!
i have been gaming for 30 years, and this is one of the worst effors i have saw sofar........we as the end user dont give chit if the COE of EA tells u a deadline is a deadline! grow some nads n tell them u NEED more time!!!!!!as the product aint finished!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i work in projects for I.T. companys..........might be different product, but who cares!
this is a joke. we PC games are now 2nd fiddle to consoles. how short peoples memorys are!!!!!!!
can u even buy crysis for ps3/xbox.........look how the climate has changed is such a sort time!!!!!
i guys need to the finger out and get every man on deck to sort this crap out.
as the game in my eyes is a total right off!!! single and multi
*are console users suffering the same as us?"

For those who missed my possible solution and explanation of reasons of this mess, please read:

Guys i have solution for everyone who have old gamespay account.

I used this method back in Unreal Tournament 3 which had separate name-space in gamespy registry.

Problem of gamesas.com:

Actually it (and game itself) should accept login and password of your old gamespy account and automatically create rest of account data for you or ask to enter additional data, but due of poor coding from Crytek side, in most cases you will fail to login with your gamespy account and will be forced to create gamesas account.
But in fact whenever you will create gamesas account here at site, or in game - it will create Gamespy account in sub-name space.

This where the trick begins:

When you register at gamesas you need to enter EXACTLY SAME NAME AS YOU HAVE IN YOUR NORMAL GAMESPY ACCOUNT, SAME E-MAIl as you have in Gamespy account AND SAME PASSWORD!
If you will register here with that trick, your new gamesas account will be merged with old Gamespy account with same name, e-mail and password, so you would be able to use your old gamespy id in Crysis 2.

If you was smart enough to register here with same old Gamespy name you may use your account settings in gamesas to change E-mail and password, and all you need to do - set same e-mail and password as in your gamespy account.

In case if somebody other here registered with your gamespy id name , you must claim from Crytek to return this name to you, because by design it should belongs to you and you should login with it here, but due of fault of Crytek, this sub-registry creates exploit in Gamespy, that may allow other user who registered here, to hijack your old gamespy id name and this is legal resposibility of Crytek to not allow this happen.
New users registered here may hijack your old unique gamespy id is they will try lo login to other gamespy services with dublicated name created here, so when you will return back to your gamespy account, it may force you to select new name, since your old name was taken by someone. thats how i lost my old name at Gamespy, due of same bug in other old game.

Im not sure if this is still possible to hijack gamespy name this way, maybe gamespy fixed it, or maybe dublicated name will stay only in Crysis 2 names sub-registry, but anyway, if you had name as gamespy id before its legaly yours and you must claim for it return if someone else taken it here due of mistake of Crytek.

If you lost you bonus content due of this account mess, its you legal right to claim for transfer content licence and other data from account to account, and its duty of Crytek to help and deal with mess they created, if they will refuse to help you with that problem - tell them that you will sue them, if they will resist to help again, sue them for fraud and violation of warranties and other laws. You paid for content and its yours!

i have a whole other problem. i created a gamesas account with the same details as i used for my gamespy id and now i can't login to gamespy anymore -,-

Seriously can this get fixed !?!?!?
I can't play the MP thanks to this retarded issue >:(

And really, who was the bright spark that thought registering your nickname to your email was a good idea. How stupid can you be ?
Think about it, there must be tons of people who use the nickname "Blade" and now because of this, people have to change their nick to "Blade01, Blade02" and so on.

I live in South Africa, and I know for a FACT that I am the only one that uses my nickname, but because someone in a completely other country has already taken my Nickname (which I have used for 15 years), now I can't use it ?
Thanks again to this stupid error, I have somehow registered my email address with "gamesas" but with no Nickname.... I have tried resetting my password but still doesn't work.

WHY ow WHY did you not just let people register their CD-Key's to their email addresses, and give an in game option to change your Nickname .... LIKE ALL OTHER MULTIPLAYER GAMES IN THE WORLD !!!!

It is so SIMPLE really.

Will you all add me as your friend

OMG A FIX. THANK YOU!

This did work for me 100%. I tried every other solution on this topic and THIS worked. I just made a new account trying all of my 5 gamespy ID's on one of my emails, and this ONE worked. And somehow i still got my LE Bundle even tho it was on CDok and not CDoku.

THANKYOU

I did the exact same thing a few days ago and it worked perfectly.

I would like to know what you are doing about the login issue.

Applied the "fix" and it didn't work.

-Forgot I even had a gamespy account, so tried to create one on gamesas
-Said username & email already existed, so I reset gamesas password
-Created new password
-Couldn't login
-Read this thread and reset gamespy password to gamesas password
-Couldn't login
-Changed both passwords to be the same, again
-Couldn't login.

I also have this issue. Lets hope its fixed soon, i dont like being ripped off.

For those who's still having trouble, this is what worked for me.

-Went into the game. Created a Different Account.
-Quit the game, Went into http://www.mycrisis.com to log onto the newly created account.
-When I was able to successfully log on, I ran Crysis 2 again and logged onto the newly created account.

If you are still trying to get your Account that doesn't work. Let it go, and if you want your LE items just request for another one. I am guilty of bad mouthing crytek, but soon realize why invest on something to stress over with. A game is meant to help us relieve stress from day to day lives, not add onto it. This stepped worked for me, and I believe it's due to the Crytek's hard work of mending their mistakes. Even though I'm not quite good at MP yet, I believe this to be a good game. With that said, this is my sincere apology to Crytek and the Forum admins for all the stress that us fans have put upon you.

EA won't reimburse Limited Edition contents. So creating a new account is not an option for me.

what is the point of this website?

the **** is this? I can't even play a demo without logging in to some **** that won't accept my email address. Deleted demo, not buying, get Bulletstorm instead.

92 pages and no working fixes... yep EA support all right.
