6 vs 6 is perfect!!!!!!

Our earth have 100% people. 10% babies (they prefer more anolog toys), 45% females (they usualy have half of brain of male "evolution luck" & playing in farmer clone games), 35% Arcade (Dumbs + kids, they usually play at consoles in clone of Duty Calls, NFS), 10% hardcoe (medium age & smart, they usual prefer play Crysis 1 "mesa", Arma 2 "warfare", C&C-1,2,3, APB, GTA-3,4). Let's see what is the target of Crytek. It's easy, target is more money. Now let's see on it from developer side.(Internal developer chat) Bigger group it's 45% famale, but we haven't engine for farmer game ,ok next group is babies, but again we haven't engine for anolog toys . Now remain only two groups. Let's see... OK The simple way on first look make one game for 2 groups, but actualy it's imposible ! Why ? Becouse low-end console hardware can't support big maps & dedicated servers. Ok maybe let's make maximum edition version for 10% hardcoe group ? - Nice idea ! But we have two problems. First is - it was expensive, making special edition for 10% group & second problem we must show to the world what our CryEngine 3 is work pretty well on every platforms & good choose for potential game developers & if we make maximum edition for PC we can't show it & can't sell it so well & also hardcoe group don't like tricks this XP bonuses, but we must use this trick, because this is cheapest way for make piracy version not working with XP bonuses, but dumbs group very like this ****. Oh yeeaaaa !!!:) Nice ) Ok guys let's make one game for all platforms & make one or two cheapest server with 50Mbit bandwith with SQL free edition wich will sum XP values & unlock some weapons, and say to hardcoe community like this "Big maps it's sux let's play on small, but if u want big one u can make it's self !!!". -Nice man. Cool idea, but what if they can't make cool & big map with vehicles??? -Ofcourse they can't they amateurs which will work for free. After some month we make DLC with POWER STRUGGLE MODE FOR PC ONLY & get more money ), or not or yes or not or yes ???

Lol, yeah, we'll probably see Crysis Wars 2 as DLC for PC only.

Really sad, I just got into this forum and see the post... so sad,

Was hoping for somehting a little bit higher of a player cap... will've to rethink about preordering this one :/

Maybe the demo comes to prove that 6v6 is more than enough... but I seriously doubt it!

Sad face

Actually, the maps are SO TINY, yeah, its enough.

I'm getting very bored of seeing this thread pop up... 6 vs 6 will be fine... I have played many other games with only 6 vs 6 and it's great. stop crying about it and end this damn topic.

i like the guy who complained about invis campers, you have got to be either retarded or bad at the game. they implimented a tool to see invis players, you should probably use that. yea a lot of people will use the invis, so knowing that, counter it. or you could use the decoy as bait to get him to shoot and reveal himself.
its not hard.

Smaller teams= the need for better team work.

I really don't understand the logic behind why some people think that more players=better game. It's all in your head, if you ask me.

But if I had to speculate on why they prefer more players:

- There's more chance that your svck will go unnoticed.
- They're convinced that more players = more target rich environment = more fun (Not necessarily true. Time to enemy encounter is what it's really about, and a smaller map compensates for fewer players.)
- Less pressure to succeed as an individual player.
- I feel more comfortable camping with more enemy players running around.

I really really think that it's all in your heads, especially since in every video I saw on youtube, not one person ever complained about the number of players present in the maps. Yes, there was some criticisms, but unrelated to player count. A lot of you are judging the game before playing it, and keep in mind, this is Crysis 2 and not C1.

I didn't read through all fifty something pages of this thread, but I think a better argument would have been about players preferring larger maps to smaller ones and not about the player count. And I wouldn't support that argument either.

And before whining, you do realize that there will be a demo? Amirite?

So before you cry foul, at least pick up the demo and see if you like it, because the bottom line about whether you had fun in C1, probably had a lot more to do with the gameplay mechanics and not the player count.

Hence, it's all in your head.

A little note to Crytek:

You have lots of time before the release to rethink this. Use the time wisely, listen to your potential customers, and I will be more likely to buy your game.

Very True Crytek. 6vs6 isn't as exciting as other games where they can have 8vs8. It won't effect on me pre-ordering the game But it would just boost it even more for potential buyers.

Im sometime surprise how much information crytek released about the game. People cant understand that you cant judge a game before they play the finished product or atleast the demo (They hear 6vs 6 and they think the game is boring). When it comes to making great graphics and interesting gameplay crytek is great but hyping a game up.... kinda weak. Try hiring someone from Activision ...their the best

PC games are the whiniest group of people all they do is complain about console gamers

its unconfirmed by official crytek personel but sources inside my brain say that crytek wouldn't be stupid enough to limit the pc crowd with with console content and WILL have all the stuff crysis 1 had and more

we are waiting for official comfirmation

PC games are the whiniest group of people all they do is complain about console gamers

"Console players are the stupidest group of people all they do is throw insults and act like overaggressive children. HURR HURR"

And that's not entirely true either (What I said about console players). Not ALL of them are like that. But many of them are. And this thread isn't even "whining about console players". Think before you post.

Oops double post

Because you idiots ruin all of our franchises when they compensate and cater to your platforms mediocrity.

Play the demo before judging the game.Crytek already told the player count was a gameplay choice and it has nothing to do with the consoles.And yes,we PC gamers are the whiniest group of people on the face of this planet and we like the reputation.

Any body can explain to this idiot what players count was a gamplay choice, but why ??? Because small maps !!!! But why ???? Because console can't handle more size!!! But why ???? Becouse low-end hardware ???? But why they fit game to console ???? Because they think what can get more money for this modern warfare clone with nano suit & make advert for cryengine 3

Firstly,the main reason they went multiplatform is because they wanted to expand their buisness.Crytek doesnt want to make games just for PC anymore,because of people like you who dont appreciate anything.Secondly its 6v6 for consoles and 8v8 for PC.The player cap is a gameplay choice and not because the consoles cant handle it,look at halo or the godawful CoD,it was more like 12v12 .The PC demo will be releasing in less than a week ,play the damn game before going on your mindless rage.You are the idiot not me,learn about the game before you talk **** and spread negativity in the forums.Its because of people like you the developers dread making games for PC.We only have[Insert your favourite developer here] and Crytek remaining,so have some respect.Peace out.

They didn't have to...but they chose it because markets much bigger so more money...Console people and PC people are equal in moaniness which is stupid.

You can stop you're whining because it's not going to change anything unless the release a DLC or cancel the game for consoles and make it exclusive delaying the game for a couple of years and causing massive damage to their name for not being able to release it on console...which one sounds more likely...

its a joke ? 6vs6 ?

Why we have the dedicated server if it is 6vs6?

please change it !!1

Really? Where has Crytek officially said the final release will support 16 slot servers? All they do is keep us speculating and it's really freakin annoying. Its quite obvious that this game was scaled down and streamlined for consoles and it certainly has kept this game from being at its fullest potential. Even Cevat complained how badly consoles held this game back. It just svcks to see this franchise tarnished for the casual console crowd that most likely won't even have a live multiplayer for longer than three months.

yeah , i agree , for PC its a lame joke ! , MOH has 12 vs 12 , BC2 has 16 vs 16 , MW2 has 9 vs 9 , and the Coming-soon Battlefield 3 will have also 64 players like BF2 , if Crysis 2 will have only 6 vs 6 i wont buy it + it wont be any competition for BF3 and MW3 when they come out :S , Crytek you can do much better , you have made a hell of game ( Crysis ) dont screw up the sequel please

I think that Pc multi has more than 12 players servers.... Of course there are some good sides about 6 vs. 6, like game is not just headless shooter game but well some players like smaller matches and someones like bigger matches (like 32 or 64+) But i say i like most Mp servers where are under 24 players and no vehicles/tanks.... Though clan matches might be easier to do with smaller group when skills mean something and teamwork like in tf2. But one bad side is that game needs more servers if all servers are 12 player servers.

wow really really really nice..... Crytek has seriously just messed up the game.. this just made me not wanna buy the game anymore. the game looks EXTREMELY BORING with 6vs6. at least make it 8vs8.
