This,this is what I am talking about
2 online servers with 1 to 2 players.
Now say what you want to say.

Ok. You are an absolute retard that shouldn't be allowed near the internet or a pc or infact anything more complex than an on and off switch.

So to conclude. It turns out the muppet running around going "LOLOLOLCONSOLEKIDLOLOLOLGAMEISDEAD"

Place your bets now!

Calm down, Aviyur, we understand, there is a clear problem with reading comprehension in the education system today and it's not your fault you were subjected to it.

Let me clear things up for you. What the op is getting at is that anywhere from 0-200 active servers is a problem. And no, you are correct, neither he or anyone else needs to take up 200 server slots to play the game, they do in fact only need one, thank you for liberally pointing this out.

The problem, in fact, is in longevity. That is a fancy way of saying that the game simply does not have enough active servers to indicate a long life span, and the smaller that server list gets, the less likely that people will be sticking around, because they, too, will see that the game isn't going to last much longer. There will be a few die hards around who will try to play even if they can't frequently find a populated server to play on, but for the most part in a few months you will not have the luxury of choosing who and when you play the game with.

Just wanted to clear that up, maybe as an apology for your poor experience with the public school system

While it costs nothing to play the game it can't ever really die unless server support is suddenly dropped. Look at MW2, that game has been "dieing" since day 1 because of crappy support, very ineffective anti-cheat etc. Yet it still has 1000-5000 players regularly. Unless you're the retarded OP of this thread who cant even connect to servers.

And I know that you have no real argument so you need to drop down to "education" insults. Still I guess that's a step up from "console kid" insults.

But the fact remains, this thread isn't about C2 being dead. It's about the OP's brain/PC/Internet connection being dead.

Okay, the flame may have been rather childish of me, but I do in fact have a point.

There is a large difference between a flourishing multiplayer and a stagnating one. This game is not one that should have a dwindling number of people, not after just being released, but it does. Compounding that is the already low populated server count.

Yeah, I only need the one server, and I would probably pick my favorite server and only play on that anyways, the others don't matter. This is the meat of your argument and I see where it comes from. But if you're in this for anything more than a few kicks for half an hour, you want a community. And the state that this game is in(player wise, I don't really care all that much about bugs) means that fewer people will be joining the community, and a higher percentage will be leaving for greener pastures.

The game is not dead. But the OP isn't really meant to be taken that literally. More correctly the game is dying. It doesn't have the number of players to keep a steady player base, and it's in question wether the future patching will be able to bring in enough people to get it to rise above the endangered line.

So let me revise. Not dead yet, but it's bleeding out. I wouldn't argue so harshly against the OP were I you, because lets say he's not entirely right, things are hardly as rosy as you seem to want to put them.

I, for one, am mightily pleased by this news. You should have continued in the Quake direction with your MP instead of turning the ship around and setting course for call of duty.

+1 This.

True enough. Besides I just don't like the OP which is why i feel the need to point out the flaws in his argument.

But yes, as far as this game is concerned, for 30min kicks which, lets be honest, is what the whole CoD style gameplay is based on, this game pulls it off well. But, the only game i've seen make a comeback after stagnating is AoC. Everything else just slowly dies to the repeating effect of "no-ones playing this, im not gonna bother"

However, this game will last me til BF3.

Lol, yeah, and most of them are either things you don't want, have 2 or 3 players on them, or are way out of your ping range. C2 PC MP is dying faster than a junkie with aids.

Aviyur,
Halo 1 (from 2001) has at least 2000 servers FULL at all times. yes, i have this game, and yes, i do realize that you are angry that every other person in this thread is a literate person except you. if C2 has >200 open servers left, it is dead by august.

Oh wow. Are you one of those market anolysts? Or are you just some clown flapping his gums like the OP? Me thinks the later

Okay guys, as funny as this flamewar is, stop it. Seriously, it's just everyone butting their heads against a wall and offering Crytek NO constructive criticism.

Here's how I see it:

I Live in country South Australia, which means I am relegated to either Satellite internet (Useless for gaming) or Wireless Broadband. This means that even to Oceania servers I get 150-200 ping. Which is fine. However, I have recently been playing on US and Euro servers with 350-400 ping. Guess what? I notice NO difference whatsoever. My average KDR hasn't changed at all between the two server regions. If anything, Crytek are to be commended for creating a bloody fantastic lag compensator.

That being said, I do agree that unless Crytek at least give as a damned ETA on the next patch, this game will whither and die. As someone pointed out earlier, the game isn't close to dead, yet it is rapidly bleeding out. I have friends who can't even login to their gamesas account to play. My stats have reset numerous times, but I'm STICKING WITH IT.

"But why?" I hear you asking through my magical powers of trans-internet mind reading. Because I genuinely LOVE this game. I love it to pieces. I refuse to be one of the thousands of sheep-like gamers who abandon ship whenever the engine starts to smoke, or abandon ship just because they see all the other sheep doing the same.

Seriously, if you want the game to live, stick with it.

PS: This is to Crytek; please, please, PLEASE give us an ETA on the patch. It's been far too long with no news OR updates and we are getting sick of it.

Kind regards,

The PC Crysis community.

I always have found what i wanted...you just need to know how to use a filter...
But in general, don't use PING as a filter, it's not relevant since à 1000 ping is perfectly playable (around 25 to 50 in game).

My filter config is: Ranked server only, not full, not empty, no password. Next, you sort servers by gametype, if you see 1000 Ping, check the location (in the server name).

Easy.

The game is not dead and this topic should be.

In fact, it's kinda funny, because i post on it...which keep it alive. ^^

Gamemodes I like:
- Instant Action
- Team Instant Action
- Assault
- Extraction
- Capture the Relay

Gamemodes I don't like:
- ahem...
- errrrrr...
- thats pretty much everything

As for ping, I play on 1000 ping servers without problems.

And there aren't many servers with 1/2/3 players.

Aaaand just before you say - yes, I've played the original Crysis MP and I've got a bad feeling that it has less players than C2.

Its because of all the problems the game had at launch and failure to fix them immediately, ive seen it happen with other games.

Aliens vs Predator 2010 on release day the game had around 10,000 players showing on the Steam User Stats. At launch the game had no dedicated servers, massive balance problems and games constantly lost sync. A week after release there were 1,000 players on Steam User Stats and now it dwindles around 300 players. They added dedicated servers, fixed the sync problems and gave some minor balance tweaks but by then the literally over 90% of the playerbase had moved on.

Things like EXP loss, disconnections and hackers should be (or should have been) top priority.. not fixing minor single player elements like Nano Catalyst. Whats the point of a DX11 patch when the game has issues? Thats like polishing a turd.

Well Said !

Regards, sk4man .

Wtf are u doing right now.
polishing a turd

i filter out full and empty servers, and i get only 6 servers, and when the f is patch coming out???

That search is clearly finished you retard Kid.
Crysis 2 has got around 2000 pc servers to play on.
And search of servers on pc usually svcks at 1625.
Same is happened in your case .See and observe those screenshots if you have got ******* binoculars to see.
....near bottom left corner.
You get only 46 servers alive out of 2000 servers.
Seriously you are genuine ****** pain in **** the ***.(count those stars to get meaning of them, if you can you retard kid!)
WTF do you think when you get 46 server alive on your crysis 2 game?
Do you think it gonna last and stay alive for year?
I don't see that coming when bf3 in on its way.
Or you are the type like "OH I AM A LOLLOLOL RETARD KID WHO HAVE GOT INTERNET AND GOING TO PLAY ON THIS GAME FOR YEAR WHEN GAME HAVE GOT 46 SERVERS ALIVE ON ITS RELEASE MONTH!!!!! ****ME!"
Did you think,that I am gonna stop after you post 4 images?

Now check out my 2 images and go to your ******* console,Kid!!!

Filter for all ****** and any mode,map etc. with full servers not filtered(I should have done this before to make you shut up!):


Servers :



You were true that we don't play on 200 servers at ones, but are you going to play on any one of these 75 servers after 2 months?
So tell me,Will you get any option to play your preferred modes or maps ?Will you be able to filter them out and get any alive server?

This thread was not meant to be flamewar.
Just this Aviyur kid in going in my nerves!
Seriously,Did I say I hate crysis 2?
No,I don't ! By the way,I bought this game by the wonderful experience I had in crysis 2 mp demo.
Sure game has issues, But that's not making me stop playing crysis 2 mp.
I had been noticing low population no. on servers these days ,so I put the topic to let people know and encourage them to play crysis2.
I put those screen shot images in this topic when I got only 2 servers alive of crash site on crysis 2 when I wanted to play crash site map.
I bought crysis 1 at 2008 so I can play mp game ,that was announced best mp game of 2007 year on E3 awards.
But no,that game game died out in front of my eyes in only in 2 years.
I just hate it when crysis 1 has got very beautiful modes and no one to play with.I hate to see games which i just bought die!
You can not deny that this game is dying!
YOU CAN NOT!
AND PLEASE PLAY THIS GAME AT LEAST FOR 2 MONTHS! (This is for gamers who already reached last rank and of course stop playing this game when BF3 is out)
