They aren't bonuses for multiplayer or singleplayer, they're important additions to the game.

No, DX11 is free, it comes with 1.9, the OTHER DX11 package features stuff ONLY DX11 GPU can support, it's additional if you want tessellation, HDR Motion Blur, etc. Also, High Res Texures are optional, they're all free, bro.
Then it's like HORAY!!!! I will celebrate it tonight)

Indeed.

Why not fix the connection problems? here in Brazil because many people stopped buying the game simply because the internet connection ADSL oacess?o not allow the MP! This one is forced to reconfigure the modem by opening TCP ports: 80, 443, 64100, 6667, 29900, 2990, 28910
UDP: 27900, 27901, 64100
Since other games normally!

Finally a real patch and thanks for fixing the bullet penetration bug.

Also please look into damage dealing when a player comes out of cloak mode.
Feels like when the cloaked player comes out of cloak and shoots, the first 3-5 bullets hit all at once.
It's like opening the gates to a flood. Could be a netcode problem of some kind but I doubt it.

It is actualy much easier AND faster killing a player when coming out of cloak. And getting very annoying since atleast 60% of the players in a server use cloak the entire game.

Crysis 2 DX11 and High Res Textures Update

As a number of users were able to download the DX11 and High res texture packages from our test environment we would like to take this opportunity to explain how these files will work and our future plans via a short FAQ;

Where can I download these files?

We have removed the files from our websites until the full release date.

How do I install these packs?
Both the DX11 and High Res texture packages require Crysis 2 PC Patch 1.9 to work. Without this patch they cannot be installed.


When will patch 1.9 be available?

Crysis 2 PC patch 1.9 AND the DX11 and High Res Texture packages will be made available on gamesas.com on Monday June 27th!

Please note that the files will not work without the PC patch scheduled for release on Monday, more information about this including all download links will be made available to you via gamesas.com and our social network pages. If you would like to see a list of changes made in patch 1.9 you can view them HERE.

It would be nice to know about this stuff too-

Will DX11 bring some better antialiasing options (as it should), it would be great to get rid of that blurry AA that we have now
Will POM work with anisotropic filtering?

Please make "kick Idles" an options so server admins can disable this. I'd like to have "Kick Idles" feature disabled in my server but that is not an option for the server admins. Please make this a option in the next map, thanks!

So, that's mean I better upgrade my com lol
Nice work Crytek, I've been waiting for it for long..... time

Thanks!

Is this feeling called joy?

And... Will be SandBox 3 released with the patch? This really really important for me... I just can't wait!!!

don't forget about server side disconnects and crashes, this game is dead, nothing can help

Again can we please get a confirmation that Steam Users will be able to enjoy this patch and the DX11 and High Texture Packs?

LOL at the "Improved Multi GPU Support". Crysis 2 has no SLI support. 1.8 patch enabled multiple GPU but caused random black shadows all over the screen and mixed up graphics.

so this means the random dissconecting issue STILL HASNT BEEN RESOLVED

Woohoo! Great news! Thank you so much!

Thanks it was time, I have only one question. 2 updates will be the payment or free will? Thanks for your t...

Guess 27th will the day when earth stops, and people get back to play Crysis 2

? Improved multi-GPU support

Can you expand on that a little?
Now that my Crossfire flickering has magically disappeared (yay!), i get graphic glitches when i'm killed or sometimes hit with a JAW or Ground Stomp it seems.

Why are people saying this game is dead? I'm seeing servers with 12+ people in them all day
