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

Post » Wed Sep 17, 2008 6:28 am

First, I am playing on SuperSoldier on Xbox 360 with Crysis 2 installed on my HD.

The Glitch:

On the level Corporate Collapse, Right after the part where you *this is the only Spoiler* defeat the first PINGER. *end Spoiler* the blue objective reticule appears over Chico and the vehicles with the objective marked as "Rejoin Chicoin the cafe: Regroup at the vehicles"

When this happens, Alcatraz's animations become severely limited, in that he can no longer shoot, high-jump, use grenades or attachments, ledge climb, or even slide. all I can do is use active camo and armor, and walk around collecting left-over ammo from the previous battle.

There are no places to advance and the only backtrack way is a drop (which you cannot return from, having lost the ability to ledge climb due to this glitch)

I have both killed and been killed by the Pinger several several times. On both reloads, and reboots. The result is the same. No matter the strategy/weapons used to defeat him. and regardless of whether I pick up the 2000 Nanite reward or not.

Go post in the xbox section if you have a console problem, this is for us serverly let down pc gamers

There seems to be a problem with Melee During the Campaign. Sometimes I Can melee and sometimes i can't. doesn't seem to matter what mode the suit is in either. also still waiting for the DX11 patch......

There apparentlywas never any Dx11 patch planned according to Cry-Tom

Firstly, yes.. maybe I am a bit annoyed over the bugs, glitchs, cheaters, mp, LE issues.
But forget about it.

I don't believe for a second that crytek has abandoned us one bit. I really don't think they are sitting around sipping cocktails laughing at how much money they've 'apparently' conned us. Cause the reality is, they probably havn't slept for days staring at that black and white window and text that is the game code. Fixing things up that we can't even grasp basic understanding of in terms of programming game code. ( I'm sorry if you Do know game coding... Yet again you out of all people should defiantly understand how difficult it is).

It really isn't easy at all. Chances are their worried themselves about if they've fked up such a big project. Or the more reason they wouldn't abandon us. Their names and reputation are on the line here. Not to mention personal pride over a game they help create.

Yes I know it's a big company backed by bigger company. But they are still made of humans, and humans have limits. Can't expect a patch to release instantly. If that happened it'll just be a half-assed one made to shut people up; Stopping them from making a proper patch.

I for one... Wouldn't exactly say... 'Take your time with the patch', But please hurry It up a bit. Add some elbow grease and I support you guys, keep it up. Make sure it's properly done though.. And if you take very long... I I'll knock your doors down..! Jk lol.

I for one will not be going to extreme lengths and taking this game back. I'm keeping it. And for those who think you can boycott, demand refund, compensation, legal action, Burn, get NATO involved, get Jesus involved, or anything in the realm of bordering stupidity. expecting a suitable response For taking hostage of their dogs,cats, goldfish or what not.. I think you are wasting your time.

No.. In fact you ARE wasting your time. That stuff never happens as much as we like it to.

I for one am gonna wait. This game is gonna be sweet when it's all ironed out.

I will be seeing you guys on the battlefield! (on crysis2.. Not battlefield the game..)

Dude? Its their job to make games and the get payed for it! This is what you get when you decided to team up with a lame ass company called EA, forcing them to focus on the console for the past year. And still they managed to mess it up on the console. The MP demo on the pc worked even better then this retail disc! You kidding me right with your post here??
Perhaps you also forget all the things Crytek promised the pc-gamer when the announced this game last year. Imagine people out there spending money to upgrade their system or the loyal Crysis fan out there. And then you get this piece of ****. They must have been drinking cocktails during the making of this game and not ad this moment!

Hi guys,

Apologies if this has been mentioned, I don't have the time or the will to run through 90 pages.

Both problems are related to the single player campaign. I've been having a problem where certain buttons stop working, most often the melee button but sometimes other buttons. Also, every time I reload the game my Nano Catalyst count is zero and for the first five minutes or so, collecting it doesn't add to it. After said five or so minutes it starts to work but starts from zero meaning I've nearly completed the game but not been able to collect enough to go beyond the second stages of any of the suit upgrades.

Great game regardless of these problems, really enjoying it.

Would everyone stop whining and moaning. Crytek are more than aware of all the problems with this game and are no doubt trying to fix them. Be patient and when there is an update, they'll tell us!

I just wish they didn't copy everything from other games. I wish they left it with the original shooter style that they had going in the first Crysis that i found rather innovative and brought something new to the genre. But no, lets copy COD, everyone loves COD! Crytek don't realize that they had a massive fanbase that they just purposefully kicked in the balls. I don't mind you making the game for consoles. I don't mind you making the graphics slightly worse. But i do mind that you have taken everything that made Crysis great and made it into something we have seen so many times in other games. I hope they bring back the magic in Crysis 3.

I may be wrong so don't take my word for it... but I've read rumours that crytek/ea where paid off by nvidia to leave dx11 out until their new graphics card is released at which point it will only be supported by their new card. (info here http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?p=4796021). I sincerely hope that this isn't what pc gaming has been reduced to and that all parties involved get hell for it if this is true!

On the game, seems like a good game but it seems like they've gone backwards, I know it's probably for the sake of the consoles but... no destructible environments, only dx9 at present (even crysis1 was dx10) and I've had to make changes via console menu for increasing f.o.v. etc. because they where to lazy to include a proper menu.

Still, I have faith, I hope we get an appology for being left out in the cold and a big patch that includes dx11 and a nice long list of menu settings for graphics fov etc. I think it may be asking too much for destructable environments in a patch, it's probably all built into the engine!

Dude, you can't make a multiplayer good without copying someone else these days, Hell, you can't make ANYTHING without being unoriginal... Otherwise it's gonna be boring.
If they used the Crysis 1 multiplayer, people would have complained about them not doing... anything different.
The way I see it, the need for suit upgrades gives the game an good step forward..

Like I said, you can't make anything, or do anything without someone who've done it before.

One bug that bothered me a lot, if you die a few times and have to load, often I find I load in and my melee button does not work, at first I thought it might be something on my media PC or Wireless 360 controller, but then I found on my other machine using mouse and keyboard I have the same bug, the ability returns in time, but it makes it tough to get by long enough if you're in a hairy situation when you load.

ummmmm, some people above have mentioned "no destructible environments", well.... so when I'm shooting at an enemy and aim a little to the left/right etc. and some masonry flies off the pillar I just shot, is that a non-destructible environment? I'm confused.


More to the point. Whining on these forums at Crytek won't get you anywhere. So far I've loved the game, especially on my 3D TV. It looks amazing even without DX11. If DX11 support is coming via a patch then woohoo, if not then whatever.

Play this game on PC in 3D if you can, otherwise it still looks great.

Thanks Crytek for all the hard work. PC gaming is all about tweaking , patching and patience (something a lot of PC gamers seem to have lost) and I can't wait for this brilliant game to get better via all 3 of those things.

As for the whiners, stfu and tell someone who isn't too busy patching the game to fix your silly little quibbles. I have a pre-built Toshiba gaming notebook, a 42" Samsung 3D TV and a hell of a lot of patience when it comes to playing a game that takes years and a lot of skill to develop and it plays fine and looks great.

Dear Crytek

I am deeply disappointed by the great loss of quality, precision and accuracy of a product of Greater Germany!


Best regards

I hope you guys are working on a DX11 Patch or somewhat because you promised us that C2 will have DX11 support. Oh the evidence... Sorry.

I have a feeling this product is what big production games look like when the developer tells the publisher it needs another year for polish. I can't see DX11 coming out in less than 3 months. Hopefully mp will be mostly fixed in a couple weeks and I will be able to keep my sanity when playing. I was looking forward to this so I could give up on Black Ops (which still doesn't work right graphically in mp). Starting to think that buying an expensive pc to play fps games when cod 4 came out was a bad idea.

I have lost my multi-player progress( the exp., awards,level i earned and unlocks i did after the match was finished) multiple times...
I hope this will be addressed and fixed soon as it's extremely frustrating for me to lose my progress after i've earned it!
This is 2011, a major production and high profile game like this should NOT suffer from these kind of problems. Seriously there is no excuse.

Yes and no. Destructable environments show damage when you shoot at it. Showing rubble and debris is only half of it. The environment needs to be changed as well. If you shoot a hole into a building you should see debris however you should also see the hole in the wall. So far the only destruction that sticks in the game is shooting out windows. Half the time when shooting at a building I dont even see burn marks. The same goes that if you shoot the limb off a tree it should snap in two and fall. That does not happen in this game.

* And it's funny that for the same product advertising italian web-page there is similar sentence (in italian) without Crysis 2 :-)

"Sperimentate tutta la straordinaria qualità visiva dei nuovi grandi successi compatibili con DirectX? 11 quali HAWX 2 e Civilization 5."

"Enjoy all the visual glory of the latest DirectX? 11 blockbuster games like Crysis 2, HAWX 2, and Civilization 5."

If all this is serious... Crytek/Nvidia ?
