Cevat Yerli's Crysis 2 = John Romero’s Daikatana false Ads

Post » Tue Dec 14, 2010 8:50 pm

Well after realizing how many LIE we heard from Cevat and how different Crysis 2 from what Crytek promised us i felt like the only thing Cevat Yerli forgot to tell us before release of Crysis 2 is:

"Cevat Yerli's about to make you his bich."

and

"Everything that Cevat Yerli's touches turns to gore and gold."

If anyone here dont know history of game industry, this is reference to famous fail of industry called DAIKATANA which was advertised by line "John Romero's about to make you his bich".
If you want to know more about that sad story, which ruined John Romero's reputation and career, you can read it here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daikatana

Now what makes me wonder, will Crysis 2 ruin Crytek reputation or Cevat personally, or its already did?
What is more funny, Crysis 2 intro starts from pathetic line "A Cevat Yerli's game" like he is game designer or write or something like Hideo Kojima or John Romero. I mean that was pretty bad thing to impersonate game like this even if you are CEO of studio.
Its like if every Activision's game will start from line "A Bobby Kotick's game" or every EA's game would start from "A John Ritchitello's game" line.

How many pathetic false advertises by Cevat and other Crytek employees about Crysis 2 you guys can remember?

Very true, they set the bar so high with Crysis it would take a lot of effort to match that with Crysis 2.
I like Crysis 2 but after completing it last week, the catalist bug set in and I just cant be bothered playing threw it again.
As for multi, I havent even looked at it after the reports of rampant hacks floating about.

My main focus was modding and that is not going to happen with this game so I have went back to using ue and source.

Even if so - it's only Yerli's fault - his and his false promises. Especially in regard of PC version, but also the entire game.

You do realise that Cevat Yerli is the director and executive producer of Crysis 2, right? Having "A Cevat Yerli Game" in the credits is accurate.

That's pretty much what I tell any1 who asks me about the game.

Crysis 2 is by no means a bad game, it's a great game. But as the sequel to Crysis, people such as myself weren't expecting a great game, they were expecting a game that would be totally awesome and amazing in every way.

Great??? Man you have pretty low demands and lacking some taste!

Crysis 2 is not great game, it barely could be called fine game, but not great. Crysis 1 was great game.

C2 screwed everything, gameplay, graphics and even story!

It hard to believe, but when C1 was more like story-less military tactical simulator, it had deeper and much more original story than this "cinematic" b-category bunch of cliches which have no respect to its predecessor.
Crysis 2 lost voice of main character, lost original design and features of aliens, turned everything into banol alien virus outbrake and stupid alien design which i seen before in blacksite area 52
Image
Blacksite Area 51

Image
Crysis 2

See the similarity in design?

Actually entire Crysis 2 looks like Blacksite Area 51 and Area 51 rip-off and like sequel to Blacksite.

Even face design which was realistic in C1, in C2 turned into some grotesque animated movie kind of ****, that dont look realistic at all.

C2 not great game! Great LIE and Great FAIL, but not a Great game!

I've since left COD MW2 since I started playing Crysis 2 MP. This game has made NFS Shift 2 only my secondary game when I want to take a break from MP.

C2 will never live up to C1 since it's more like a different game. It's fun and I extremely enjoy playing it. Look beyond C1, this is different. It's a great game.

I didn't say it's a great game compared to crysis, I just said it's a great game.
I know C1 is better than C2 and C2 is a console port, etc etc.
But C2 alone, not compared to anything, is still pretty good.

This is so true. Why anyone would play COD over this game is beyond me. It's a very similar game with so many more balanced aspects. Along with crazy unique features that make it Crysis. Multiplayer is a blast!

Anyone who thinks Crysis 2 is a great game is just plain ignorant.

If you had any idea or had been keeping track of all the 'promises' made to us by Crytek (especially to PC gamers), that they straight up lied about, then you would know that its stupid. Too keep it short, this game was advertised as something the final product was not in order to get more people hyped and buy it.

Crysis 2 is trash, trash that looks good, but not as good as Crysis 1.

The only way anyone would think this is a great game is if they never paid attention to anything Crysis 2/Crytek related before release and if they knew nothing about Crysis 1. Pretty much just some random guy who walks in a game store and says "oh Crysis 2...hmmm...looks good I'll get it".

@gemflamz
I've played both C1 and Warhead countless times and even still have them on my HD for benchmarking purposes so your theory is inaccurate about ignorant Crytek players.

What is it about Crysis 2 MP that you don't like? Let us know specifically what it lacks and why the gameplay doesn't live up to your expectations. PS. I stopped playing the campaign since 1.2. I haven't finished the single player mode yet because I'm having way too much fun on MP.

That's what I'm saying. If they kept their promises it would be an awesome game, since they didn't it's pretty crap. But it's still somewhat fun to play. I may have been stretching the use of the word "great" but still.

I don't see cross platform development as a problem like many do. The problem is the devs priorities. Oblvion comes to mind as a game that was great on PC and consoles due largely to the fact that it was designed and built on the PC first and foremost. Had the PC version of C2 been built and completely polished before the console version got any attention, things would have most certainly turned out differently... for the better of course!

Crytek did say stuff like "Crysis 2 is going to be a PC game first". They actually still claim that. This might even be actually the case in many parts. That however is not the case when it comes to the most visible parts like the menu interface, the controls and stuff like texture quality.
Alas, there is still hope that the DX11 will redeem a portion of the mishaps. With all the flaming I am pretty sure that Crytek is aware that alot of PC gamers feel a little wronged. Especially the modders :D

Woh, I can make a LOOOONG list of these, but let me shoot 6 most obvious:
  • -Multiplayer welcomes cheaters and not legit players by default with no protection AT ALL during the release. IT'S RIDICULOUS that 13 yo kid could hack this game. What they were thinking?
  • -Only 16% of this forum users can play multiplayer flawlessly - WTF?! Should be at least 95%.
  • -Too small maps
  • -Lack of vehicles, whatever ground or air.
  • -Lack of tactical approach in multiplayer
  • -Lack of Power Struggle (or actually: any game mode that would require maps greater than 50x50 meters)
I could make a huge list of MP flaws but it's pointless - just browse these forums, they are full of them pointed out.

  • -Lack of Power Struggle (or actually: any game mode that would require maps greater than 50x50 meters)
I could make a huge list of MP flaws but it's pointless - just browse these forums, they are full of them pointed out.

1. Hackers bypass protection daily. Your lack of knowledge about this makes you invalid for making an argument about why it's unacceptable. If you have a decent amount of expertise in coding or experiences with how anti-cheat works, please, explain it with your reasoning. Because ALL games that are popular have hackers. There isn't ONE fps that doesn't. Not one. This isn't an obvious flaw, this is just an obvious observation. There is a big difference.

2. Your skewed statistic is taken from such a small sample. Not to mention that it isn't even properly setup. The questions are opinionated leaving the person clicking the answer to pick what he could have felt at one period of time. If they were specific questions about how many disconnects, how many failed to connect, or how many errors... It would be different. The fact you can't see the difference between the two again makes it look like you're grasping for anything to make a point.

3. "Small maps." This is your opinion. It isn't a factual flaw. Let me try to show you how it's wrong nonetheless. There's only two small maps in the rotation. Impact and Skyline. Both of which are completely unique from the rest of the rotation. They all have different encounter points and different map structures. Letting people spawn safely(Save maybe the start) and still progress through the map. The firefights are all balanced on any map as well. There's no overwhelming position.

4. Vehicles? That's arguably something that would unbalance the currently balanced gameplay. The ONLY situation that vehicles even seem viable is the lighthouse map. None of the maps are extremely large so what you're asking for is really stupid. Unless they release larger maps and game modes in the DLC. You're going to have to stop playing because that's something that YOU want. It isn't something that the game needs by any means. It would only hinder the game and make it unfocused and certain things overpowered.

5. Tactical approach? This is one of the only FPSes that you can pull up a TACTICAL visor and paint targets for allies. You can literally have a person doing RECON. Most games that claim having that type of gameplay are referring to someone just mic spamming locations. This is much more skill based. You can also add that any and every objective on the multiplayer maps is team-work based. Capture the RELAY, Extracting ticks that can't be returned BUT the timer resets every time they are picked up, and Crash site where you have to have people on the site and people defending those people. Are you playing on the rookie servers?

6. Power struggle is arguably one of the most boring game modes in the world. It's one of the modes devised that easily takes the least amount of skill in any game. It's just zerging each point over and over. I'm speaking from the any standpoint. Newbs or pros. It is dreadful. It has its luster for a while. Then you realize how little skill it requires to win. How the "team-work" is just defaulted because it's the most linear multiplayer in the world.

Keep listing them. Try to keep your opinions out of it and it will actually hold some weight. None of these are flaws. They are improvements. The multiplayer is one of the most balanced team-based futuristic shooters there is. If not the only.

I can tell you this, I may not purchase many games, but I bought Crysis 1, Warhead and Crysis 2. How I feel now though is that I will pirate the hell out of any future Crytek games if I even decide to bother downloading them. Yerli can go svck a fat one.

That was the best joke i ever reed, too bad you kinda late with it - 1st arpil is over like 11 days ago))

Really dude, Crytek lied about almost everything and bashed like every game by saying "all games sux, Crysis 2 better than anything" - after this we should have at least something of Crysis 1 level, not **** downgrade.

Actually John Romero did same mistake - he bashed everything, advertised Daikatan as best ever game and when this sad **** was released it dissapointed everyone... now Romero is history, same thing may happen with Crytek and Super Yerli brothers... in same Time Carmack and ID alive and kicking and their ID tech 5 and rage seems much better than Crysis 2 and CE3, and Carmack aint saying that all games and engines around are bad...

People should compare Crysis 1 and 2, stop posting retarded things like: "you should look the game for what it is", you must expect C2 to be more that 1.
