So how do we get the anti-cheat update for the non-steam version? I logged into the game and I didn't get any update message in-game and my file version is still 1.1.

I've stopped playing this game entirely.

...and that hackers and pirates are having a blast on most servers.

inCrysisToo >> Now that was funny... makes me wish I'd saved my $60, downloaded the pirated copy, and got a hold of the hacks, so I could have some fun with the game too. Sadly, doing so would make me just about as honorable as the software house that took my $, and left me with "we're working on it" [aka "Please Wait."]

inCrysisToo >> ...but this one:

... A.I. acting downright mentally disabled, ...

inCrysisToo >> Made me laugh so hard, I fell out of my recliner!



As for me... I spent the day compiling the -real- bug list [not the partials that appear here and at EA], with hopes that somehow, some way, I could get them to Crytek engineering [I'm a Lead Engineer that took a really early retirement].

Of course the EA website glitched, as it did here last release day, and ate my homework.

Great post !

The suit menu is broken and this along with the myriad of other problems posted on these forums means that this game was is not even close to being ready for release..

I was in a inverted t shaped tunnel and the only part of the suit menu that would work was the binoc mode.
This deprived me of X and y axis and it locks that way until you move away and of course gets you killed because you are locked in binoc mode.
If there's a wall on your left, no armor, on your right no cloak this also applies when you're in close proximity to any walls front and rear as well.

When the whole game revolves around the suit and the suit menu doesn't work you have a defective product.
Crytec should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this beta game to be released.

Curious why lots of the posts are from areas other than the US...

are you one of those americans who think that the world only consist of the USA?


Not at all, just wondering why most of the bad stuff is happening to those outside the US.

a project manager is still able to say if yes or not a product is ready, I'm not saying who has to be blamed (except the quality engineer who obviously didn't do his work), I'm just saying that someone really fooled the customers. May this information be passed to whom deserve it ;)

Most games I have purchased in the last several years have had the same kind of problems. Most of have been fixed in patches that came fairly quickly after release. I think this is something we are just going to have to get used to...

Getting used to it or not it's completely a bunch of **** rubbish that games come out essentially 'broken' in some (or many) ways.

Companies relying on the ability to 'patch' games has brought new lows to the game development community. Instead of actually having to do their job properly, they have become complacent.

I don't care if companies continue to churn out **** buggy crap... but if they do, then they better god damn be ready to cop the community outcry and backlash.

To me, looking at the patch update that 'Cry-Adam' put up, it seems that they're a little frustrated with such an out pouring of threads and repetition of threads and PM's in their forum account. In my opinion, they have to accept that because the game was not released in a finished state. So, if you're not going to do something right, then cop the consequences.

This is **** ludicrous rubbish ****. To comment saying that they haven't commented? What flagrant disregard for fans. Either say "it's not coming" or say "it's coming within xx time frame" if it's coming. I don't care if they say that it'll come within 5 years I just want to know if it is or isn't coming. But to say that they aren't commenting on that is just **** **** it doesn't mean no, it doesn't mean yes. It's ****. They are allowing fools to play into their hands.

If they say 'No it's not coming' if it is indeed not coming they will potentially lose sales. But by not saying anything they are still keeping hope alive, perhaps tricking people into buying it who want to play with DX11 but wouldn't buy if they said 'no its not coming'. It's **** and I hate it when companies treat their fans like this.

Re: not commenting about the flickering / multi-GPU issue at all...

This pisses me off just as much if not more than above. To me, this is one of the major issues with the game. It's the issue that affected me, and it certainly affected my enjoyment of the game. I have finished the game and THOROUGHLY enjoyed the experience, it looked great, but I didn't get to play it in all it's full glory. I want to play the game again but on my 27" monitor which I will need my second GPU to do, so if I knew they were going to fix the problem (or potentially ad DX11 support) I would know that I could wait to play it again and wait with the knowledge that my next experience would be a better and more complete one. But instead I'm left hanging. Sometimes, there is nothing worse than being left hanging.

VERY POOR FORM CRYTEK. You're one of my favourite developers and I honestly believe that you have some of the most talented people in the industry working for you. I had a **** great time playing your game, but in future I'm probably not going to buy something on Day 1 because of the way that the issues have been ignored and 'no commented'.

I made a seperate post in the forum for this, but I see there are new posts every few minutes so mine will quickly vanish down into the bottom somewhere, so I will also re-post the same issue I have here:

I cant re-map the "interact" key properly in the game. I have tried re-mapping the use key to "." aka period button, but what happens is the game only works when it says "Press . to look", then the character looks, but "Press . to use" doesnt work, so I cant interact with objects.
If i remap the key again to another key, then "use" works, but "look at" doesnt work.
Seems like the game is defaulting to using the F button for both "look at" and "use" but when you change the setting it will only change one of these functions to the new button. At least this is the case for using the period key which is what my control scheme always uses in games for the interact button.

I hope this can be fixed in an upcoming patch? I tried editing the controls files but they are encrypted so no luck there :/

This whole issue with not being able to log into an account is still a problem for me, I enjoy playing the single player mode but I am looking to get into some multiplayer matches. Whenever I try to log in the same error pops up telling me to check my network connectivity. I see people talking about playing multiplayer matches and was wondering if there is a fix to this issue yet.

Goober368. We are all in the dark as to how to get aound this issue. I cant understand how some can join a mp server and some cannot. I cannot.....I am using XP SP3 and Macafee. No other game has this issue for me. Only C2. They seem to have re-invented the wheel. C1 MP / C Wars works fine....so why did the alter code that was fine. Why is there a need to re-invent code that works. If it aint broken, dont fix it.

Not happy!

Since the correct thread for my post is locked....This seems like the next best place.

I have Crysis2 for the PS3 and Computer.
The graphics for the PS3 are horrible(not at all on par with the computer version) so I don't play it much but I can get into multiplayer. However the servers keep dropping the connection (I can play other MP games just fine). But I can not even log into MP on the computer ( it says my login info is incorrect. Cry-Adam just abandoned and locked this thread.

http://www.gamesas.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=12502&start=160

Which does not provide any useful information any way.

Any way to the main point of my post.

I have a bit of experience with databases (about one year). The red flag for me is that I can freely change my nickname on gamesas without worrying about another person having the same name. When I try to login on the computer it asks for the nickname which is by no means unique to that install. So how is it to know which account and password combo is right? How ever on the PS3 version it asks for my email so there is no problem logging in....I have heard that the EA Download manager version asks for the email therefore it works, but I have not seen it.

By now this game has been out for over a week, the PS3 version was horribly disappointing so the same day I got it I had to spend another $60 bucks to get a version I will actually enjoy playing. But so far Crytek decides to just ignore this BIG PROBLEM and just count the money they made from selling this heaping pile to the excited fans. If this does not get resolved soon I know what company I will never ever be buying games from again!!!


I wish I could return both versions of the game, they are the biggest wastes of money for me for the last three f***ing years!!!

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.

I wonder how long it will take until I am able to play multiplayer at all.

For two days I was able to log in normally and then after 30 "connection to host failed errors" i played a few games. after leaving the gamelobby i wasn't able to play at all.

Now since yesterday i can't even login with my account!!

There's always a connection error in the network. But i didn't change anything!

So how come that I can play for a few days and then nomore?

where are the mods? they should announce patch 1.2 details now surely, they said it would be end of week, well today is pretty much end of the working week so where is it, id like to see some definate bug fixes especially to Ai, sick of having to coax ceph away from hugging walls! advanced options aswell (not third party), proper anti cheat( why in the fukc did you drop PB?), and not dx11 yet but a proper announcement, dig Cevat out and make him bloody speak, he said he would announce dx11 details BEFORE PC release, these crappy announcements saying there was no announcements on dx11 is bollox, you calling your boss a liar? really?

There are just a few working servers out there. The rest crashes on countdown(Just continue ticking after reaching "1".) or "the connection to the host was lost" during loading or simply wont even start the countdown..


BS.
