only recently began to write DX 11 code, there at school learning with NVidia, the programmers don't know how to write successfully DX 11 code to a game, its all still at school lol

I was under the impression this game was going to be natively ATi-friendly, when the hell did it become nVidia-centric?

I "see how that turned out"? I've played several hours of this campaign and spent most of it grinning with disbelief at the mind-bogglingly well scripted scenery and gameplay, not to mention the bonerific graphics. They bragged about their amazing engine and I saw how that turned out alright. It turned out terrific. So you've had a bit of a bad time, I personally haven't seen many bugs at all apart from one or two, and this current one that granted is a little gamebreaking. But this happens in the PC game world, ranting at Crytek is just silly.

LOL enjoy your port. The graphics are now where near bonerific. Sorry. Also you haven't played the MP at all have you? Also the SP is bugged as well once you get half way through it. Let me know once you have played both the SP and MP long enough about just how many bugs are non existent.

Also I can rant if I please. I paid good money for this game and it's nowhere near what their hype train lead to believe. It's a buggy mess, so because I paid for it I'm entitled to rant thank you.

Hah! games like crysis 2 is the reason that game-piracy exists.
Lots of bugs, A.I. that seems like it was written in th 80's and a multiplayer that can only be described with one word, FAIL.
I realy hope that you guys at crytech intend not only to fix the multiplayerproblems but also release an smarter A.I. in a later patch.

I'm glad people are up-in-arms about Dx11.

I respect your right to rant believe me, but you have to respect my right to defend Crytek based on my good experience with it. On my system this game looks glorious. I haven't really wanted to play any multiplayer tbh, I got it for the singleplayer. The thing to remember is that there will be patches. It is unfortunate they chose to do a port, I despise ports, but I'm sure there are practical reasons for it.

The AI could actually use a bit of work now that I think about it.

i am to

HELP!!! Crysis 2 pc Network Connectivity Error

Am I the only one who gets the "Connection to your Opponent has been lost. Youve been signed out!" error?


i am to have the same issue

SO many ungrateful bastards here saying that Crytek don't deserve our money. Are you kidding? This game is LUDICROUSLY good, LUDICROUSLY. This is the game I've been waiting for all my life!


I would like to report however that I cannot play any further than the Semper Fi or Die mission due to the marines constantly repeating "Move up!" and "Go!" and other things, there's little than a second between each announcement and it's continuous and many even overlap several times. It's very annoying and ruins the game so I've put it down until it's fixed. I've read a lot of other forum posts from people who cannot proceed further than when you have to defend against the Ceph as no enemies ever materialise. Please acknowledge this bug! Thanks for an amazing game otherwise!

EDIT: I wanna put this at the top :
I think the lack of official responses from Crytek indicates they really don't care. I'm not 100% sure but I believe Cry-Tom and Cry-Adam are only community managers for this site. They don't actually work at Crytek.

UNGRATEFUL?!? ARE YOU **** KIDDING ME? We paid money for this product. Which means we shouldn't have to put up with this ****. They bragged about their engine like crazy and you see how that turned out. They always said it was gonna be the pinnacle of gaming in every way, shape, and form. Well if your using an outdated API then how the hell can you accomplish that? Plus the game is buggy as hell.

I'm sorry but when I pay good money for a game, I'm not gonna deal with a **** mess. The only way I'll deal with a mess of a product is if it's free. Is this game free? NOPE!

You idiots who believe the developers even care about their consumers are ignorant to say the least. They don't give a damn once you give them your money. You wanna see a prime example? The newest AVP. They said there was gonna be free DLC that was included in the limited edition. Did it come? Hell no it was paid. They said dedicated servers would be at launch. Did they come? Nope took them 2 week IIRC and they were in beta.

I can go on and on about companies that say one thing and do another including Crytek. Hell they promised us an editor for Crysis 2. Are we getting it? No. Instead they are going to release a full engine like UDK this summer. But how can you use it for Crysis 2 if the bloody files are encrypted? Game engine's aren't modding tools. They are completely different.

Anyone who says we should calm down and have patience must love throwing money away.

PS: Crytek promised us a lot with Crysis 1 and and warhead. We didn't get half of what they promised us. But they were damn good games. Crysis 2 is nowhere near Crysis 1 or warhead.

I agree strongly m8.

I wonder how Crytek could sell us this (highest settings):


These are low-res textures. Is there any official promise to release, say, a high-res textures pack, like it was the case with Dragon Age 2?

@ arvul... Come on, you want a better AI?! The Crysis 2 Ai is excellent, it is ways better than in the first Crysis and better
than much other first person shooter you like..
SO, please give me an example, how BAD it is.
I′m waiting..

REFUND

Iv also got something so say but i feel im wasting my time as there are 37!!!!! pages of people biching and moaning. You guys all forget that the 1st Crysis had bugs aswell.. all games have bugs... just about every game thats released requires and update just after you install it.. its actually getting to the point where the game developers think naa its ok to do that even tho we have had months to test the game.. i dunno.. maybe im talking **** but i dont think its right that all these game need updates after you install them... k so now to my problem that i feel wont get any attention but it makes me feel better to tell. im enjoying the single player and i dont really care about the bugs in multiplayer.. if the server wont load... find another.. no point in getting agro.. but what does irritate me no end is that when i try join a server and it tells me "MY SERIAL NUMBER IS ALREADY BEING USED". That is a HUGE problem for me. if there are people out there cracking the game and using keygens and my serial has been taken then i DEMAND my money back... that is **** and i wont stand for it. you guys must fix your ****. i dont care about the bugs but when someone else is using the key i paid for... thats pisses me off.

The AI isn't bad although I have had an instance where one guy was running into another one *glitch and for some reason in one lvl ( *Spoiler the one with the first crashed ship) I uncloak behind some destructible (but untouched) cover and was immediately spotted and shot at (I was above everyone with my back and side to a large building (and crouched))

I've been trying to get into a MP game for probably an hour now, ever server i enter seem to be stuck in the lobby...

Incredibly awesome game... when it works

Ive got a big problem that is seriously annoying me...

Here is my rig (all drivers are up to date, etc.):
Core i7 @4GHz
12GB DDR3 @~1500MHz
2x GTX 470

Nothing overheating and no problems in my system otherwise.

Playing with the "Extreme" graphics preset, I am usually getting around 100fps, but in some areas it randomly drops down to about 20fps every few seconds, and stays down - this happens especially when aiming down sights. This happens in mutiplayer too. Any advice?

There are so much things yet to fix, lets start with this, THE SERVERS, over half of the day the ranked servers are down, add a auto reset script (5 minutes work), second add a auto team balance script (that shouldnt be to hard right?) in SP the physics are a bit off, a sewer roster was spinning around and around (if i want to see that i watch meatspin right?) also the engine needs to be improved, after a few minutes in game the FPS drop dramaticly when firing (60fps walking and 2-5 firing).

so in conclusion im suprised that the game ever got out of beta and the coders of MP should be fired, castrated, shot and burned (in that order).
PS a 3rd party released a advanced graphics program wich alows you to change the graphic settings like crysis 1 had, im suprised you choose the ''noob'' setting (hard, harder, insane, what kind of info does that give us?)
but for the rest the game looks realy good, and the gameplay is nice aswell.

Did nobody Beta test the final product before it went gold? How could all these totally obvious bugs make it to release?
*My nanosuit points keep resetting, so thats one factor of the game that I will likely never use because I never have enough points to spend.
*The multiplayer which keeps resetting my rank back to 5.
*The very fact I got to rank 6 is a miracle that I actually entered the game with the totally glitched lobby system that won't count down into the game.
*Who the hell doesn't put advanced graphics settings in a PC game? I could run this game on maximum if it weren't for the god damn blinding motion blur. I like to see where I'm going without the world going blurry if I move my gun an inch.

Who the hell gave this game the OK for release? It's broken and looks totally unfinished.

everyone thats trying to be a child about the direct x 11 needs to stop it will be out later and plus you cant return pc games it doesnt work like that enjoy the beautiful game because either way it looks beautiful of pc and crappy on everything else and if it doesnt on your computer well you need a new on simple as that if u cant put it on extreme in 1920x1080 upgrade your tower. you cant experience it fully until you run it like i do at 50 to 60 frames perfectly with no studdering and if there is any other visual defects try throwing away any ati card and get nvidia:):):)

Excellent? xD
Is an AI that keep on running into walls, just stare at you when you decloak in front of them, doesn't flank your position when your taking cover, doesn't throw grenades when you take cover excellent ? xD

I remember playing a game way(F.E.A.R) back in 2005 that had an A.I. that could challenge me untill i discovered the slomo-ability. something that the crysis 2 A.I. fails to do even if i'm not using the cloak or armor abilitys.

if you cant run the game because of the blur your computer is a crap storm

not officilally, but in my opinion low textures missing directx 11 support and graphics that aren't as high as expected,nobody was expecting anything from homefronttextures, because it, from beginning was planned as multiplatform, well thats the way it really looks like, are to blame on first multiplatform, because you cant set benchmarkstandards, like crysis1 did, on multiplatform, as anyone with a part of brain would know, because consoles really svck at hardware, if you compare the "latest" consoles with an high-end pc

and second because of ea, they like to ruin the reputation of a developer by pushing the releasedate forward so they can earn some money earlier, and thats why most ea series end up wrecked, i'm pretty sure directx11 support will follow in a future patch for pc which without standard ea pushing would have been there with the games release

well on all complaining about the ai set the game on posthuman and have youre fun because comparing the ai to the cod series you have pretty **** realistic acting computer enemies so dont **** complain

eexcuse my english i am completely drunk!!!

i would completely agree with pandabear it's, except for the reasons i metionend, a graphically insane game and just try to name an actual game that would reach that graphical standrad even a future one??
dont set your expectations to high those who are programming are only humans, exactly like you, not some demigods

wahre worte...
eindeutig so gewesen-auch mit dem servermist-keine lan server und keine server am eigenen PC. aber das ist nicht nur bei EA-Games der fall!
es gab mal zeiten in denen ich voll hinter EA-Games stand-aber momentan sinds halt die die viel geld geben aber eine menge verlangen...
