Love these buggy, workaround and half fixes. The cant even make a working patch system.
Good to see you guys, use your (ripped off) money from PC community wise.

.... Crytek Coders conversation
"Maybe we should make a patch, so pc players can play, and get something for there money"
... "Why should we, just let them come up with fixes and workarounds"
"Ya thats true, lets go play BFBC2 again"
..."Ya hope somebody comes with a workaround pritty fast, i want to play the game we have been working on"

1. Have you previously installed the Crysis 2 PC demo?
YES

2. Have you uninstalled the demo before installing Crysis 2 retail?
YES

3. Did you change the path for the default installation and if so, where to?
YES -> D:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis 2

4. Which Operating System are you using? (Example: Win 7, 64-bit)
W7 Ultimate 64-bit

5. Where did you purchase the game from – EADM, Steam, Retail or another DD partner?
Best Buy Pre-Order

6. Can you provide the MD5 checksum for the Crysis2.exe in the game directory?
3f78e812be9e4a8b267557ce45d611e7

7. Which virus scanner software are you using?
Symantec Endpoint Protection v11.0


MD5 Checksum Software (Freeware)
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Programming/Other-Programming-Files/winMd5Sum.shtml

This will help you find the checksum info Crytek is asking for. Install it, use the program to browse to the exe file (found in bin32 of the install folder), and this program will give you the MD5 Checksum - hope that helps.

yeah the patch is installed, but why when you turn on a console in the main menu the game version section says: PURE RELEASE VERSION?

My system: Intel Core i7 860, ATI HD5870, 4 GB RAM, 650W PSU, Win 7 32 professional. The game is impossible to play on my system. Game always crashes just after launch. Crytek's or EA's logo apears and it crashes. All i can do then is manually reboot my system. Reinstalled my Windows, tried different VGA drivers, but nothing helps. Yesterday installed ATI Catalyst driver 10.12 and it finally worked, played about an hour - everything worked just fine, but today it doesn't work again. Don't know what to do... Any ideas? Thank you.

Hi guys,

An issue has been discovered with regards to the EADM version of the game where a copyright symbol is inserted into the folder name upon installation, which is causing the patch to fail.

1 If your Crysis 2 folder's name is "Crysis? 2 Limited Edition", you have to rename the folder to "Crysis 2".
2 Run the patch.
3 Rename the folder back to "Crysis? 2 Limited Edition"

Please share if this does or doesn't work for you :)

Why am I increasingly getting the impression that Cryteks idea of a PC patch is just telling us to fix it ourselves?

I have the EADM version, and my Crysis 2 folder does have the TM symbol, "Crysis? 2 Limited Edition". The patch worked properly the first time without me having to edit it. Maybe some others are having issues, but just wanted to point this out.

You can see what version you have by right clicking the crysis.exe file and clicking the details tab.

EADM thinks the game isn't even installed after renaming the folder. Redownloaded the whole game yesterday and it only patched up to 1.1 EADM is a very buggy program anyway, as it doesn't use the options I always set in the program--EVER! We need to manually download the new patch (if it exists yet) so the simple, most straightforward solution is to give uy a download link. Thanks for reading.
