Crysis 2 PC fixes & info [Updated 16th April]

Post » Tue Sep 16, 2008 6:30 pm

I think the PC gaming community deserves a definitive answer on whether or not Crytek will include future Directx11 support for this game. Or at the least, an in-game menu that allows you to tweak graphic settings.

Thank you.

Upon booting up Crysis 3 i nearly fell off my chair when i realised these two things. Absolute joke.

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.

EXACTLY the same for me (from Switzerland)
This is an issue we are aware of and is currently being looked into.

Ye I totally agree they sold to us beta version without any stress. I cannot believe how many bugs they actually allow to be in "full version". There should be a law for this to protect customer. This product is so faulty :( I am not buying any game again from crytek, I know they don't care about it but I do !

If this is to long don’t read it:
1st I'd like to say YES Crysis 2 is crap compared to the 1st one. Look at a persons face in the first one compared to the 2nd game... So for the people who say we wouldn't complain if it was listed as DX11 but looked the same YOU GUYS ARE WRONG. 2nd PC gaming is FAR from dead. It has grown at a steady 3% each year where the amount of counsel gamers has fallen. Steam alone has over 30 million users. Just because this game was a flop does not mean PC gaming is doomed... PhysX is amazing in games that support it like Mafia 2, Mirrors edge, Batman Archam asylum, ect. They look and play WAY better on PC then counsel. Metro 2033 HUGE difference vs. xbox. AND almost any game that is a counsel port still looks better on a PC due to higher resolution and AA. So stop your STUPID IDEAS about PC gaming is DEAD. Its NOT DEAD. Just Cause 2, another great game that uses Directx 11. Alien vs Predator, I could go on and on. about how many PC games that are NOT PORTS and look amazing on PC. I am a pc gamer for 3 reasons. 1) better graphecs, 2) keyboard and mouse is way better than controller, and 3) ITS CHEAPER TO BE A PC GAMER! YES THATS RIGHT IT IS CHEAPER. Most people have a PC that has a PCIE slot. I just bought a GTX 570 for $300 (the cost of a counsel) and put it in my 4 year old computer and it plays every game on HIGH! Since PC games are cheaper than Counsel games I will of saved the cost of the Graphics card in less than a year. Just Cause I got off steam for $7.50 at walmart its $40 for xbox. I got GTA IV for $5. Even at walmart GTA IV is $20 for PC and $30 for council. point I'm making is PC gaming is really cheaper if you know what your doing. and if you like a controller you can hook up both PS3 or xbox controller to it... So their is no excuse for a person to not be a PC gamer. Here is a couple PhysX game previews that show what I’m talking about:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0xRJt8r ... re=related

So do yourself a favor and go buy a counsel if you ever think PC gaming is dead or even looks close to a counsel.

considering their are only minor "normal" bugs in the singleplayer crytek cant be taken responsible because the substudio london was responsible for the ( FORGOT WHAT IT WAS NAMED BEFORE) mp and they totally screwed i think there are some programmers in london who just got fired

the direct x11 issue is in my opinion an ea fault because they pushed the developers, theres no directx 11 needed on the consoles, so they wanted earn some money earlier..

and well crytek main in frankfurt did a nice job, the game overall works and more smoth than cod, so london just didnt finish what they had to do and ea pushed for money reasons so crucify those!

Why has there been no mention of the nano catalyst glitch the causes nano catalyst to be lost, and can prevent players from collecting more of it?

Yes, I know the customers have mentioned it, I'm asking why it hasn't been addressed by the support staff, slick.

Hi there,
Here a list of issues which are very annoying:
-Graphics settings need to be more advanced (I don't have a clue which is the highest setting).
-I'm getting disconnected on multiplayer all the time (so far only been able to play 1(!!) full match).
-make the weapon motion blur adjustable!!
-melee should be one hit kill (or is it only when the enemy hasn't got "maximum armor" on?)
-Make mp matches start! (in the topic of "day 1 patch" it says it has been fixed, but I'm still searching like crazy for a working server)
-Make the announcement bar bigger, I can read faster then the damn thing moves...
-For the singleplayer. The weapon attachment buttons (1, 2, 3 and so on) have to be made bigger, when I'm in the middle of a fight I don't want to be wasting time by having to put my face 2 cm from the screen in order to see where I have to click to remove my suppressor.
-and last but definitely not least. Make the "suit-menu" (the thing where you can switch between visor, armor, cloack, weapon thing and suit thing) easier to use... I don't want to use the keyboard for that. I liked it in crysis 1 where you could switch really fast with it. and right now it doesnt feel good.

I hope you guys will do see this and repair it or something. Cause I bought the game to be happy and so far I haven't been happy. (I even bought a new pc for it).

Best regards

Why has there been no mention of the nano catalyst glitch the causes nano catalyst to be lost, and can prevent players from collecting more of it?
After much research on the fact(All on my own, by the way; I thought I've already found a solution before) I've found out this: If you have any amount of nano catalyst, when you exit the game (or just the singleplayer portion itself) that variable turns negative, but since the interface can't show negative numbers, it will appear locked at zero until you fulfill receiving that amount lost. So if you have 4000 catalyst, then you exit the game (or - in some cases - if you even DIE and RELOAD YOUR GAME), at your next reload YOU WILL HAVE TO ACQUIRE 4000 CATALYST BEFORE YOU CAN EVEN GET PAST ZERO. THAT is the textbook definition of a game-breaking glitch, so my advice would be to wait until they fix it in some way, or just don't worry about nano upgrades...because you won't see a lot of them.

Melee kill (Actually Stealth Kill) sometimes doesn't work, i guess because of lag issues. Instead of killing opp. with knife, you simply meele him. And I don't agree with you if you actually mean Melee should kill with one hit even using with power mode or using against opponent without power mode. Anyway, You have to be exactly behind your oppenent and wait for an instance before SK symbol appears. Also i'm not sure if you have to wield a pistol at that time or not.

I found transitions between modes slow using the middle mouse button. Keys are more useful for me. At first it's confisung actually, because besides power and stealth modes, there are visor and heat vision modes and all that tech consumes your suit power. You have to consider all the time how would you response after using a mode while your suit power is decreasing.

After reading and hearing all about this, I'm tempted to steal the game first and play it for a while and then decide if I wanna spend money on it. Decisions, decisions. Then again, hell, even the rips would be just as buggy. Might as well wait a while and see if they fix ANYTHING, then decide. Wait wait wait. I haven't waited enough already. I love waiting. Wait wait wait.

any ETA on a fix for the xfire flickering issue? I would really like to play this game.

HD5970 2GB ... disabling 1 gpu / disabling xfire / running windowed doesn't really work that well because there's some weird fuzzy bloom / HDR effect going on. Better then the flickering issue but still a headache source.

Can Crytek at least confirm they are working on a fix? Should we be chasing ATI instead for an updated driver?

I'm more or less resigned to DX9 and crappy textures, but I'd like to play the game at least without getting a migraine :)

thanks
