At the risk of sounding redundant, where is DX11 or any info as to whether or not its actually coming? Avoidance doesn't seem to be the best tactic at this point, at least tell us if it's not in the works so we can all move on with our lives lol.

I've read through about 20 pages and everyone lists the same exact errors, the same exact concerns, etc. etc. As Butters pointed out, no word from Crytek, no patches that actually fix the many sordid issues, etc. etc.

I was a bit on the fence what I'd do with Crysis 3. Quite frankly, after experiencing this monstrosity that's as far away from the original as possible (and not in the good way I should add!), I have no intention of buying the next installment. I'd urge everyone else not to buy it as well, maybe start a thread listing people who are boycotting the game's sequels unless Crytek can perform a borderline miracle. If I had known that a neutered and glitched version of the multiplayer would be what I was expecting, I'd have stuck with Starcraft 2. And the single-player wasn't as awe-inspiring as the original's as well. This is a failure on all levels in my book.

You can sure as **** hell add me to the list of people who boycott Crytek and EA. **** companies treat us as beta-testers and, as opposed to pirates, a **** paying customer can't even log in to the MyFailsis. EA **** still haven't fixed Dead Space 2 multiplayer. I'm already not buying anything from Activision and Ubisoft, might as well stop buying EA.

This thread is for listing issues/complaints with the game, not pointlessly biching to other forum members. DX11 was promised, everyone and their mother is asking about it on here, and they have yet to even acknowledge the question.

Yes i wanted to see that because on all this forum is about dx 11..who i dont give nothing...otherwise most of players didin't see all other bugs..like from server selection menu..you have no option to stop refreshing the servers ..and u cant pick fast a server you want...the fake lag showing on the server selection..the servers never start ...... most of people sayng "dmg recognition" well is not about that..when u guys shoot in some1 and he don't die is not because of this recognition is about the lag...if you have lag you will never hit well . And if you going to personalize your server selection filters ..evrytime you got disconect and return to the server selection your filters are gone and you need again to do same ****. And at the end..what was your ideea to replay to me? you didint have what to do or you was just sayng "look at this guy he write with caps, and im not..im smart"

Hi I'm some poor 17 year old schmuck that loved the first Crysis but can't even get past a level in the second one because of the amount of bugs i had to go through (i have crysis 2 on the PC by the way). I'm gonna make a long list of glitches that i have found because I think that I have encountered every single one possible. 1. Jumped through a window in "second chance" i end up with nothing in my hands, not even my hands (so i couldn't do anything but quit). 2. I shoot a gun then i stop firing but the sound of the machine gun lingers on for the rest of the level. 3. On the level "semper fi or die", i get into a structure after the ceph gunship blows up the entrance. What do i get ? marines keep yelling "move up, go" for the rest of the level even when the is nobody around. I replayed the level and get the same problem except now chino keeps telling me in the top left corner of my screen "cmon alcatraz" so it just gets worst. 4. This is the glitch that prevents me from moving on in the story. I get to the end of the level. You know when the ceph gunship is supposed to blow up the helicopter (not that I've seen it happen though). Anyways you're supposed to regroup with some marines cause they need help. I get there and there is only invisible people shooting at each other. Technically flying guns that don't move around and they shoot at one target (you can take damage from these flying stationary scars). On the railroad there are invisible ceph shooting (but not at you). I move over the way-point but nothing happens even though it says I'm 1.5 meters away from it. That's where I'm stuck for the single player.......now for the mulitplayer. 5. I got the "serial code already in use" glitch. However i found a solution on the internet. You just have to type in your code WITHOUT any capital letters or dashes. 6. Ohhhhh boy the double soundtrack glitch. This glitch is the same glitch i encountered in the demo. You know how in the main menu there is a song playing. Well when you go to the customization menu, the soundtrack restarts over the soundtrack that is already playing. So you have two of the same soundtrack playing but at two different points in the song. This is very annoying. 7. Now for the mystery dog tags. This is another bug that i encountered in the demo. Basically what happens is when you unlock a mystery dog tag and you use it for a while it gets relocked (but it is still your display on your dog tag unless you click on another). When you do click on another the display on your dog tag is different but you cannot go back to your old dog tag as if it was never unlocked in the first place. You can re unlock it though. Well those are all the glitches i experienced thank you for reading. It's a great game but it really needs to be patched.

Please make sure the patch will work on steam , becouse it is a known issue that patches dont work on steam , usually ull have to get the nonsteam version of the game ,and then download the patch or getting it automaticly updated , and that dont always work on ( overpriced steam )..

Great game , im happy that console players are getting a chance to play crysis and im glad that u made it possible for them to play the game (dx 9) coz its a awsome game. And u done a great job optimizing the game to run so smooth ... and for the dx 11 thing everywone is weeping aboute , im alright with it being patched in later on for the ( FEW ) ones that have expensive supercomputers that they can play with the grafix settings and squeez the life out of their PC s ... ppl.

U chould play the game now !!! ,when u have played it at a smooth frame rate ,then u can weep that ur system wont run the games at a smooth frame rate , and thats not a fun way to play a game (crysis)..

For the record ,Yes im playing on my PC instead of consoles "ofc" every game runs and looks better on PC
and yes i have a pretty good gpu 5870..

Please ppl stop complaining aboute dx 11 and wait ffs. do something ells with ur sparetime then complaining. They have sayd it will have dx 11 , suerly it takes time to make it happen.

Every game out there had issues with connection and stuff on multiplayer and stuff (Bad company 2 - COD ,and so on ) at first , so please be patience ,, --- Do like mee concidering the game , stop complayning and - ADAPT AND ENJOY - - Cheers

Pc gamers will suffer from game devs as long, as customers complains are not effecting publisher, developers, and sales. No one is defending pc gamer: there is no monster company's as Sony or Microsoft that can prohibit game realize if it's broken or buged, and game reviewers just helping to sell glitchy games by giving them 8/10 or higher (THIS GAME IS UNPLAYABLE - HOW CAN THEY GIVE IT 9/10 - ARE THEY IDIOTS?). And game devs have no responsibility in front of the customers: multigpu is not working, you cant play mp, there is no promised 64x version and dx11 - the answer is silence, that sounds for me like: "STFU and get lost, we are bored of your crying". Other way where is simple answer - that they got bug reports, working on them and assembling to realize patch at concrete date?

Relationship between pc gamers and game devs are constructed on free will and each other respect, if I bought your game while I could download it freely, plz show some respect and at least show your presence and your attempt to fix bugs in game that you sold, other way don't blame me if next time I'll think twice before buying and just download your product, cause it's the ONLY measure that can affect you and your relationship.

I totally agree man. Quite often the buttons don't work even if you change the controls in the options and yes the semper fi or die level is infested with glitches because i have found three significant bugs at that point in the game. The button glitch, marines yelling glitch and the end when invisible people keep shooting at each other but nothing happens and the story doesn't move forward no matter how long you stand on the way-point.

I hope Crytek, EA, and everyone affiliated with the production of this game realizes what a failure this has been, and that every other company can learn from it.

This thread has been open for two days, and there are 52 pages of people just complaining. This is the single worst launch I have ever witnessed, and have never witnessed more bugs. We feel like we are being ignored.

You have to actually communicate with your consumer base, because we are losing hope in you as the minutes pass. Are you just content with the money that you've made off of the launch that you're just sitting back and watching us? This "Known Issues" post is hardly any consolation that anything is trying to be fixed. Your "investigating of the matter" seems rather half-assed, and weak.

I'm sorry, but "Some ranked servers are failing to start" Really? Some? I have yet to play one game ranked because of this after trying for literally hours each day. Playing an unranked server isn't even worth it because we can't get unlocks, which seems insane if you ask me, but that's another story. If I wanted to just play single player, I would have just downloaded this game.

You guys will need to not only fix these massive bug, but make up for it immensely, or you're going to see some pretty terrible launch sales in the future. I sure won't be buying another game on launch from either of these companies, and there's about 52 pages of people that agree.

If the game isn't ready, don't release it. Delay it. It's been done before, it will be done in the future. Or was this some test on consumers to show you don't have to even finish a game to make good sales? Get off your high horse, this is a disgrace.


I hope you are embarrassed.

I've seen one worse, when Americas Army servers did not even go up for like a week due to the traffic overload. But this is definitely the second worse launch I've ever seen.

I am unable to even launch the game.

I have reinstalled from the DVD twice and once from the EADLM.

Here's what happens: Once the game is freshly installed, I go to launch it via the desktop shortcut, or via EADLM, it doesnt matter.

The game then proceeds to download the 1.1 patch, which installs successfully.

After that point, I try to start the game again, and.........nothing. Nothing happens. All I see is the "busy" mouse cursor for about 2-3 seconds then nothing.

I tried starting the game with task manager open to see if the game is opening and closing itself but nothing pops up there. Not even for a split second.

I've tried running the Crysis2.exe directly but its an invalid way to launch the game.

I've read various forums about others with my exact same issue, no real solution has been found.
Here's a couple examples from the EA forums. So I know it's not just me.
http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/5486836.page
http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/5503342.page

There are very few extra programs installed on my machine at the moment. I recently did a complete format/reinstall of windows a little over a week ago. All I have installed since then (other than the latest hardware drivers and windows updates) Is Firefox, Mass Effect 2, Rift, and Crysis 2. I don't have AVG or any other antivirus installed.

I am really at a loss. I have no idea what's keeping me from even starting the game.

Hey everyone- Just wanted to put this out there- Left a few post on crysis facebook page citing not being able to log in with your established gamesas.com credentials for mp, and guess what- ALL THREE POST have been deleted from their wall. Id recommend you guys start posting your problems on there- the user base is a lot more public, maybe a lot more people will see what they are doing and not doing- Where is the accountability anymore?

Well said snacktime. But the thing is that they already delayed it from December 2010 to March 22nd 2011 XD
What i find quite pathetic is that a patch came with the game and it's still the most unstable game I've ever bought and the first game I've ever pre ordered.

A game unplayable for a week... Sounds a lot like this one, honestly. Who knows how long is will go on for. This is sad.

ALL THREE POST have been deleted from their wall.

A clear sign they are ignoring us and focusing on their public image to make more money and not scare away potential customers.
