EDIT: Oh, damn, wrong topic.

Yeah, its great to now they are giving away things, were in the meanwhile, I lost experience 7 times(not the only one)... I don't want to troll, but come on!!!

Is there a "preferred" size for the screenshots we take? Like is a 1920X1080 safe to submit? Would it be better to submit it as a smaller forum size? What size will be displayed on the homepage when the winners are announced?

Maybe you guys should have a category for "most ridiculous" too. I might actually have a shot at winning that one! You could give away something cheap and easy to mail like a sticker or key chain.

I'm quite please with my one

I can't seem to post my submission in the submission thread =/ When I choose my image and click add file it says: "Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached."

What's this mean? What am I doing wrong? Btw, my image's size is 118kb and it's resolution is 800 x 600.

The submission thread is up to 10 pages, and the 10th page is full. Another guess is they've locked it to 10 pages.

There are photoshoped pictures with captions on that submission thread :/ is that ok, or against the rules?!

can i use screenshots i found on the net?

HEY!

If there is ever gonna be a place to explain to us noobs/naabs/nubz HOW TO TAKE A SCREENSHOT... then this thread would be it.

Please, just lay it on me brothers.

Bleedin' hewl. Can't somebody show us how to take screenies? I been takin' 'em wid [CONTROL]+[PRINTSCREEN] since I was a fetus.
But it no longer work. Just throws me a black screen.

So, HOW DO YOU TAKE A SCREENSHOT IN CRYSIS 2???

I AM NOT going to use Fraps. And I don't feel like looking for the answer. I'm bloody lazy, and there are enough people asking about this issue to warrant a good response.

Hey guys,

There have been some excellent submissions so far. Having a great laugh at many of them Keep them coming!

To answer a few questions:
- Image size doesn't matter but try to keep them reasonable. For the winner images, we'll post whatever is posted by the author, so keep that in mind when deciding dimensions. We can't resize the images (without quality loss).
- The board attachment quota has been upped, so try again with the attachments
- There's no issue with using photoshop, many use it but bear in mind that the image still needs to resemble Crysis 2.
- You can use our images, an image you've taken yourself or from the internet; it just has to be from Crysis 2.
- For taking screenshots in-game, most people find the print screen function works, if not, FRAPS is the next best alternative. You could also try the screenshot function in Steam overlay. There's other ones like XFire too.

Cheers!

Haai, Cwy-Adum, can you tell us why some people get a blank screen when using Ctrl+PrtScn function?

Why does it work for some?

Is there a way to work around this?

I can't take screenshots. And I AM NOT GOING O USE FRAPS OR XFIRE ETC.

What did you okes do, or din't do that this function doesn't work for many people?

What's the fix?

Freaken still can't screenshots and can't get any answers, ughhhhh, whatta drag.

P.S.

I'm not using Steam either, since it's a menace to society.

Is the contest open to anybody in the world or just in selected countries ?

I can't upload a caption to the contest.
It always says after pressing the "add-file"-button that the board subscription quota has been reached. I noticed that a pop-up had been blocked, too.
So I deactivated the pop-up-blocker and tried again but it didn't work.

Is there a fix or a workaround?

And I quote myself, in hope of being answered.

What I want to know is:
I live in Brazil. If I, by luck, win the GeForce card, will it be shipped here?
Or the prizes are only for a few selected countries?

I have the same subscription quota problem.. I can't attach any more files..

also Gietyster - what's the problem with FRAPS? it's tiny and easy to use.. I don't know any other way u can take Screenshots..

Guys you gotta post the pictures in the "Caption Contest Submissions" thread!

NOT in this one!

- No offensive language can be used in the captions.

Is "god damn" not offensive these days? (example pic from page 1)

Does "god damn" offend you?

Plus, I have used a few offensive words but i've self-censored them by adding appropriate asterisks, Hope that is fine. If not, then I'm royally penetrated.

Anyway, its not offensive if the character speaks in that way right? I mean Crysis 2 had a lot of swearing.. it's a way of communicating passionately and should not be confused with genuine hate. It all depends on the actual intent of a person and since these are fictional characters being twisted for our humour..there's no real harm done.
Cheers

Lol. yeah, no real harm done.
"god damn" doesn't offend me.
Though, can our captions have a character calling another character an "asshole"? I'm curious cause I used "asshole" and don't know if that will disqualify me, though my caption pic is pretty funny in my opinion.

I don't know. I personally would'nt mind, i think your captions are hilarious!!

Thanks i'm glad you think so! I was hoping someone would get a good laugh out of it

Is it ok if i upload a photo and gave the captions in the title???? Cos thats what i did.

Hello all=))
Am am glad to find this site)))
I play long time Crysis Wars, i have my own server. Your games are very cool)))....
I would like to win the graphic card because my own let me play with FPS 10(((
So i would like to know...
1. How long will this contest be?
2. Can i make my own photos( of course about Crysis 2)?
Thanks Crytek Team)))

For those asking about whether the prizes will ship worldwide: --PERSONAL OPINION-- I think that they would, even if it isn't stated anywhere, what's the problem of sending an item to, Brazil for ex. or to Bulgaria. Some extra 10 dollars or something. Would be like 0.000000001% of the total earned cash from the Crysis 2 sales. SO, relax and just try your best at this!

All the answers to your questions are already given in the first post by Cry-Tom. The contest will end on the 15th of May (5 days from now) and you can make your own Crysis 2 pictures. You can take a screenshot, use one of the given pictures by Crytek, or find some random Crysis 2 pic on the Net. It MUST be from Crysis 2, though. Pictures from Crysis 1/Wars/Warhead etc. will not count.

Sorry for my question(( I not seen that really((( Thanks for help Cry-Team)
Just one question... What i have to press to add the photo to the Contest??? I am from Ukraine sorry for my English...
