Hey Crytek, I think it would be nice of you if you replied something. At least a "screw you" would be nice and you would not have us coming back hoping you fix your half-baked game.

At the very least we'd know that you're either working on it or just telling us to make a futile, half-assed attempt at enjoying the game the way it is because you're not going to fix it. I truly WANT this game to be good, it is my ardent wish. But you're making yourselves and all of your loyal players look bad by pulling this kind of ****, Crytek.

I mean, seriously... such banolly standard things that are supposed to work to make a decent game don't work in here. Connection issues come to mind, especially when games won't load, they freeze up, they're filled with crippling lag and host migration is absolutely **** useless. But really unacceptable things like that menu music bug (which seriously makes the game feel horribly unfinished. This CAN'T be something terribly difficult to fix) or the unlocks simply not working (Like I said before, I couldn't unlock my last weapon or the last two mystery dog tags and I had to stupidly reboot in the HOPES that I can get them, though I'm pretty much flying blind here.) and the laughably bad kill cams.

Just to name a few issues. I'm pretty sure that I've gotten lucky and have not experienced a lot of the more glaring and disturbing bugs that this game probably has, considering that such basic things don't even work. So what's the story, Crytek? Working on it or not? At the very least a tiny little encouragement to your rabid fan-base (myself included) like a "We're working to fix bug x or y" or a "We're making progress on glitch a or b" would help restore some faith in you as a developer that should support its community strongly in order for them to achieve a greater degree of success in selling their product. You are Crytek. This is supposed to be "Maximum Game", not "Maximum Fail".

I agree but i think it could be time to jump ship. La noire is out in 13 days and im putting this on shelf for a couple months...to wait for patch, but if nothing by then, im out!

:(

Hi Crytec i am lvl 49 and dont unlock last weapon Gaus M2014 fix to the Patch?? and give to achievement ??? Or not. And when released patch date ???

I think we all wanted this to be a great game and to be honest it could have been if they just fixed the issues or even just advised that they were working on the issues. But I think its time for everyone to except that crytek are happy with the money they have got and are done with this. The player base is almost none existent now and 99% of them that have moved on are not going to come back even if it does eventually get patched.

Dead game all, just trade it or shelf it. Crytek doesnt care they have their cash.

100% agree
Crytek faild.

I read a response from Cry-Adam to Twisted Buddha on a thread he locked explaining why they didn't address posts and why they didn't re assure players. WHy would you post patch information that isn't true?

Doesn't ignoring the problem all together seem like bad customer support to you guys? It is the worst thing you could do, and trying to justify it is a slap in the face.

Yeah, everyone was wanting this game to be great. The critics gave it overrated scores, people like me reccomendedit to their friends with the disclaimer "it's glitchy, but it's awesome". You guys have to be all douchey & ignore the players though. Crytek needs to hire someone to just reply to thoughtful posts. They need to fire you Cry-Adam & hire a PR person or something, because even if the developers are slow & svck at trouble shooting, you do the community a dis service by trying to justify your lack of communication.

We haven't even had a reply off Cry-Adam or Crytek about the fact that it is almost certain that the 'hot fix' we had just before the 'patch' has been erased when the patch was installed.......

A simple question as to has this happened cannot even be answered by the dev team, one word - shocking.

Also this is the 'Crysis 2 360 Patch' forum post :

People are going on and on about the p1ss poor network coding which leads to ridiculous lag, have we had anything from Crytek about the network coding?? - Not a dime.

Incompetance.

I don't even give a f*ck anymore to be honest.

I enjoy what I can from it and as soon as I finish my exams will be buying others games once I'm back at work.

This above post should be worrying from a Crytek point of view.

Not so long ago you were a staunch defender of Crytek, and when people like yourself are giving up with Crysis 2 then this should be a worrying thing for Crytek.

If the supporting Crysis 2 community have had enough, what about the non supporting community.......

I guess they've already packed their bags.

I will be the happiest man alive if the grain glitch gets fixed.

They still need to fix the under barrel attachment problem. It is an extremely low res texture! The high res never loads in. Ever! During the entire game it never loaded in. Also, regarding the screen grain glitch, I had that problem all the time. Then I read that some guy advised to shut the system off when you see it and then reboot your console. Off then back on. Then redload the level you were on. So far that has worked like a charm and I have only had to do 3 or 4 times in a period over a month. Not very elegant solution, but it has been working for me. I have a 2010 360 console that is the last model before the revision if that makes any difference. At least Crytek admitted to the grain issue and that they are trying fix it. I wonder what the hell causes it?

What I want to know though is how in the hell can they miss that ****? I love their games but come on!! I mean, come on.

It's a software problem with the game. Your 2010 XBox, mine is to, is just fine I'm sure just like mine. I can play literally any other game all day long and never get a graphics glitch. Only Crysis 2 has a graphics glitch thus meaning it is a software problem and not a hardware problem.

this games is awesome,just fix the f*****g lag!-.-'

Hey I want to get this game patched as much as the next guy...but seriously, if I was Crytek and I read half of these comments, I'd say screw this disrespectful and immature community. They may like to keep their silence, but its obvious that Crytek does in fact read these threads. Cursing them out and asking if they're dry humped (someone did a few posts above) is NOT constructive feedback or helpful concerns, and of course would not motivate Crytek to care about you more.

I HATE the glitches in this game, and the grain glitch drives me absolutely insane. But I'm not a jerk.

Also, Cry-Adam is NOT the entire combined workforce of Crytek. He's not the source of all the problems in the game, so I'm not sure why everyone's demeaning him so much. Think before you post, and always keep your composure.

Everyone's also getting mad that Cry-Adam isn't responding to anything, but why would he respond to "***** you!!!"? And even to the more civilized questions, anything he would respond would already be common knowledge. It's obvious they're working on more patches; one patch is never enough to fix all problems and no game developer has ever released a golden, magic patch that solves everything. Simply state your concern for the game, Crytek will read it, and they'll decide whether to patch it or not (hopefully they will). And as for the grain glitch, Cry-Adam already said they're currently working on a fix for that, so yeah.

Edit: I mean less face it, the reason we're all here is because the game is good enough that we actually care about whether or not it gets fixed. One of these days it will be, and those of us who are still here will be pleasantly rewarded.

I understand that several posts, and specifically the one you mentioned, are completely useless and immature. However, that doesn't mean that anyone with a complaint against this game is immature and disrespectful. I paid $60 for this game, and it's untested and unfinished, therefore I have a right to complain. Also, you say that one patch is never enough to fix all the problems in a game and cite the fact that they have to make so many patches to fix the experience. Isn't that the point of all these threads though? The problem lies IN the fact that they have to patch SO MANY THINGS. I understand that there won't be a magic patch to fix it all, but it also says a lot that the things they are choosing to fix are the smallest, least complained about issues in the forums. If you want proof of that then ask anyone who still experiences the grain glitch...

"and those of us who are still here will be pleasantly rewarded"?! Dude I paid full price for this game just like everyone else. I should be "rewarded" for paying them money on day one, not for waiting months and months for them to make their game playable...

There are still multiple glitches/bugs that haven't been fixed yet but is your friend in this matter. they will eventually find all the bugs and squash them.

Though the most annoying is the one that when you reload (and get shot) and you want to switch weapons (from prim to secondary pistol) the gun is glitching (looping the reload animation for about 1.4 secs) and then switches over... this has killed me many times =/

Btw, finding a bug in the game (meaing in the code of the game) may take up quite some time. And changing the code may have some other effects on the game. Just like typo's.

Oh trust me, I didn't mean everyone is disrespectful, I was just talking about the recent ones (like the one that was somewhere on this page). I have MANY complaints, and I've even given a few on other threads. This game is full of glitches and we as the fanbase/consumer deserve every right to get our money's worth. My point was just that those who ARE acting immature should demand a better game in a more mature manner. And I find it quite ironic that someone replied to my post about people being disrespectful by telling me to shut the **** up lol (not you, someone else did).

But people are misinterpreting what I meant. I didn't mean in any way that Crytek hasn't done anything wrong, or that people shouldn't complain. Crytek has done many things wrong, and people have every right to complain. But there's a difference between complaining, and acting like a 5 year old. Some of the people on this board are acting like Crytek ruined their lives and killed their entire family.

But yeah, I did not mean at all that its OK for the game to have problems, or that its not OK for people to complain. I was merely talking about those people who say ***** you Crytek and ****** your mother and go svck a ****, and then that guy on the last page who wrote a long string of insults, that had nothing to do with the game at all, at Cry-Adam alone.

And you're right, you SHOULDN'T have to wait to be "pleasantly" rewarded for a game that you payed money for. Is cursing out and demeaning the developers going to give you your money's worth? Probably not. Yeah, Crytek should give those people with actual comments some feedback, but I'm not going to raqe their personal character for not doing that. I might get upset, and SHOULD get upset, but not so upset that I'll resort to the stupidest insults and act like an idiot.

And the replies I got to this prove my point exactly. I am EXTREMELY furious with Crytek. But none of you even realized it, because I contain myself so that I don't have a temper tantrum outburst.

P.S. I have no personal attachment to Crytek at all. This is my first Crytek game so I'm not some crazed Crytek fanboy or something dumb like that. If anything, I'm doubtful of how good a company Crytek really is since they're so terrible at helping their customers.

On top of that they do a hotfix which not only **** the game up even more but also then gets erased after the patch comes out.

And this is a perfect example of illogical things people say when they're angry. You say their hotfix ****** the game up, and then get mad that the hotfix was erased? Shouldn't it be a GOOD thing that Crytek erased a hotfix that ****** the game up?

"And you stupid idiots are defending this crap?" I am not defending Crytek, in terms of the glitches of the game, at all. I agree with you entirely on how bad things have gotten with Crytek. I just meant that we shouldn't resort to cursing everybody out and stuff. But I do agree with you about how bad Crytek is being.

How about shutting the **** up considering i paid for this game and Gayotek refuses to keep me updated on something that i paid for when they SAID THEY WILL.

They are a bunch of liars bringing out a half assed game and then to add insult to injury they dont bother responding to people and dont fix the issues the communtiy has big gripes about.

On top of that they do a hotfix which not only **** the game up even more but also then gets erased after the patch comes out.

WTF? Its like they cant do anything right with their own game.

**** devs plain and simple. and as people they are wankers. Tell ya what next time ANY devs pull a stunt like this again there will be action taken because this is daylight robbery

Oh and look what they are doing now....blanking the console gamers and you stupid idiots are defending this crap?

Go on then....with your Crytek protection issues.....they couldnt give a **** about you otherwise they would have done something of worth already. And as for any Crytek devs looking at this SORRY for hurting your feeling but you shouldnt **** with other peoples first

CryTwat for President lol

"As people they are wankers", have to agree with this, there is not other way of saying it. A developer, not Cry-Adam, could write a message to the community after 7 weeks to address some of the concerns. But they REFUSE to do this. I cannot imagine anyone wouldn't have time in 7 weeks to write a message no matter how busy they are.

Therefore it must be a business decision for them to REFUSE to speak to THEIR OFFICIAL community.

PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THIS..... THEY REFUSE TO DO THIS THAT IS WHY "WANKERS" IS THE APPROPRIATE TERM. If you went to a shop and you asked for information on a product and they flat out refused to WITHOUT PROVIDING A REASON then you would consider them a "wanker".

Like Crytwat said they are "blanking" us.

The REFUSAL to do this is why you SHOULD NOT defend them. They don't care about you so why should you about them? The basic fundamental qualities human relationships require is honest communication and mutual reciprocation. Stop being a BLEEDING HEART and caring indiscriminately. PLEASE STOP with the defense of them. They don't deserve your compassion.

They are crooks.

On top of that they do a hotfix which not only **** the game up even more but also then gets erased after the patch comes out.

And this is a perfect example of illogical things people say when they're angry. You say their hotfix ****** the game up, and then get mad that the hotfix was erased? Shouldn't it be a GOOD thing that Crytek erased a hotfix that ****** the game up?

I think he was alluding to the fact that they can't get anything right.

I personally think that the hotfix was good for the most part. But in his mind it was a fail and then for it to be reset anyway was a greater failure.

Sheesh guys lol I'm not caring for Crytek, I WANT us to complain...just meant we should complain a little less childishly. Sorry if that offended anyone.

Everyone's just so angry that they're not actually even taking into account what I'm saying and simply resorting to "He's not cursing them, he must be a Crytek lover". I AGREE WITH YOU ALL ON CRYTEK BEING IN THE WRONG. If you would take the time to LISTEN to what I say instead of simply accusing me of being a bleeding heart and a fanboy etc, then things would be smoother. How am I, the same person who said Crytek is terrible at communicating with customers and I'm doubtful of how good a company they are, and that we have every right to complain against Crytek, a BLEEDING HEART and a Crytek defender?

I mean think about it lol. I pretty much say "Crytek svcks right now but lets be a little more civil about it. But they do indeed svck." Then in reply, "STOP DEFENDING CRYTEK!!!!!!!!!"

my only and biggest problem is; (patch or no patch) after a few games the lobby still closing(without any reason)and you have to start again on terminal-skyline. when the patch was out i downloaded imediately, start playing but after 4 match lobby closed again. I said to my self no f@cking way to play again on terminal-skyline. crysis out cod back (

Dude if you're referring to me, yeah my post was pretty much calling for a new PR guy. They reported that things got fixxed that weren't, they don't acknowledge anything anybody does or says, and then they make disrespectful posts to THE ENTIRE fanbase as a whole (or is it just the console gamers?). If you are gonna take a shot at me, at least direct it toward me. I don't post immature ****, but it's obvious you didn't like what I had to say. Tough, because it's the general feeling around here buddy. I see nothing that your post added to anything, and other people have all said "I like the game, but I hate all the problems." which is basically what you're saying. My post just touched on the game, it was a blatant jab at the PR guy, pretty much calling for his resignation because he is a terrible PR guy, not just for ignoring everyone either. I kind of doubt that he has ever played the game and experienced any of the problems that have been reported because he doesn't seem to understand what is going on on either side of the court (Crytek or the community). I know because I have experienced ALL OF THEM. It just seems you are here to provge a point that no one cares about or evenb really grasps, and the line for point provers is on the general mesage board. The X-box message board is for incredulous complaints that do attack personal character ofd the developers (because it is warranted) and sometimes degrades into petty name calling (because kids like to play x-box too), or at least thats what I've been led to believe.

I also called into question the abilities of the programmers and pretty much all the oversight on the development team as well. This whole fiasco has been 1 big disaster. I do not think they were ready to compete with CoD (which they never claimed they were), or the Unreal engine (which they staunchly exclaimed they were) because they rushed what was a highly anticipated and overall a brilliantly designed product to a market that demands better customer support & reliability. Microsoft would send you a new x-box if you god the RROD. Starting with the launch date, they couldn't even get the nano packs out on time (which I believe they refunded) but Crysis 2 has been plagued with probloems pretty much ever since. I added my whole friends list from the first week of this game, and maybe 5 of them still play it. Your opinion is definately the minority. I still love the game. I am a ton better at it than other FPS games, and winning is fun. The lag is part my fault, I get it. I am pretty much fine with most of that, but believe me when I say that the developers DO NOT want to ignore their core fan base, because that is were the best feed back and product testing is going to come from. They said they were going to ignore the fan base, I am not making this up out of thin air.\

And I know you can't tell someones demeanor by typed text, but I am extremely calm. I ignore most of the stuff that is said on this board, and I actually can tell you were getting pretty excited when you made your last post , all that point proving really gets you worked up. Settle down kid, you are not going to be rewarded by crytek. I dont know if you played the game, but Crytek is the multi national corporation that is the root of capitalistic evil, and they are trying to steal the nano suit from Alcatraz. They are not the good guys. Don't you know anything?
