I mean, I've never seen a company being so insulted and hated for a game like Crytek is for C2. When you read this forum there are so many complaints, so many requests and nothing. Before the game was released on the market they had so much to say but now when people bought this game and realized it's full of bugs and they demand it to be fixed I see no response, absolute ignorance. I can't **** believe this!
How can they let this happen and I'm not talking about some meaningless company they are huge and worldwide recognized.
Perhaps they will make some patch and fix this and that but come on Crytek SILENCE IS NOT THE ANSWER!
Is it really so hard to say something officially and let people know what is going to happen? Don't we deserve a little bit of respect?

Right, they're a company. They're making lots of money off the consoles. They do. Not. Care.

Nonsense

This happens to every company releasing any AAA game. I saw it with MW2, Black Ops, Battlefield Bad Comp. 2, BF1943 and Medal of Honour.

This would have happened to any game ever released, you only see it because it's really the first time we've had so much accessibility towards developers.

almost any new game is full of bugs.. what ffs do you expect? They're game developers, not wizards. Patience.

Within a month, everything is okay for me. But if they just wanted to sell me an unfinished game, i'm really sad.

hf.

AAA games idd always have bugs, HOWEVER! you get response from them, the learn from previous mistakes and fix it.

Crytek has put the C2 launch to a whole NEW MAX LEVEL.
The released a broken game
0 response
Didnt learn from previous mistakes/bugs (demo)
Made promises where everybody now is very sceptic if it wil ever come.

If no one complains, the issues won't be fixed. That's why people are complaining. And as to why there are so many complaints, it's because there's so many large-scale issues that need to be fixed, well, that and people being to lazy to read pre-existing posts of the same subject on the **** forum.

WANTED to sell you an unfinished game? They DID sell you an unfinished game, and you seem to be fine with it. Crytek doesn't have to make excuses, or even acknowledge us, because people like you are more than willing to make excuses FOR them.

Hey guys if you're looking for Crytek responses please check the various sticky and notified topics at the top of this forum. We are also actively posting in threads but they get spammed off page 1 pretty quickly at the moment and no-one seems to check them after that.

We will update the forums soon to make each thread with a Crytek post in it a little clearer to help out with this.

im guessing they are all from /b/ and love seeing people get trolled by their pathetic excuse for a game and laugh at it and are like..

Its damaging the reputation of EA, Nvidia, Crytek and CryEngine3 (incl. its licensees)

Difficult to measure but consider that many PC gamers will also use consoles if not today then perhaps in the future, and a gamer who is 16 today will likely still be playing games in their 30's+.

I think this is the best game that came out this year so far. I stan by Crytek and I do not think they deserve the abuse they are getting. Most mature players will agree with me. The only problem that I find with Crysis is the lack of anti cheat - but I believe that it will be fixed soon.

In Crytek I Trust.

I love the defense that "every new game has bugs and won't work right for a month"

I can remember a whole **** of games that worked out of the box.

now they only work on Xboxes.

good day Cry-Tom
i can absolutely understand that you and Cry-Adam just dont have enough time to check the whole pc discussion forum let alone all the other console discussion threads..

but i can easily say that when im asking is if there is even a DX11 update coming ( doesnt matter in 2 days or 2 years ) im speaking for every pc gamer. ( ofc some dont really care about if the game has dx9 or dx11 but those arent the people who originally supported crysis and crysis warhead.)
Just an official statement about that and something about an Anit-Cheating software will not only reduce the amount of complaint-threads being spammed, but will make ALOT of people happy.

so the way i see it : you will do yourselves and alot of people a favor

Madkitteh out.

Sounds true. This is common with the PC plattform. So many different hardware & OS combinations and most are only happy if the game is designed in the way of maximizing the abilities of their own. If you focus on massly available hardware, you get complains from people with modern-expensive hardware who is not fully-utilized. If you focus of high-tech hardware, you get complains from those that don't have it and hate the idea of upgrading their hardware every year to play PC games maxed-out.

Developers didn't fall in love with consoles for nothing. Consoles have:

- No such whinning
- No "deep anolysis" of the actual image quality (Personally I consider the effort of maximizing D3D9 IQ useless)
- Certain hardware, much easier to develop and with much less bugs
- Less piracy

Now, I was under the impression that Cryengine 3 and Crysis 2 would be an effort to make a game that would "please everyone". This is something I've never seen happening before and would be very ambitious, not to mention costly. It would involve console developing and a full DX9-DX10-DX11 path for the PC and the DX11 and DX10 paths to be utilised in a way of making a real-difference when you turned them on (like it happens with Crysis 1) and tax the high-end video cards accordingly.

Finally, speaking for myself, I am one of those that almost always have a high-tech modern video card and as a rule, I boycott games that max at a DIRECTX 9. I'll wait for a DX10-DX11 patch for this game and when/if it arrives, I'll look into it.

Thanks Tom, it's good to see you taking a more active approach to customer support.

That's what I'm talking about give an official statement about something that is commonly addressed i.e. Anti-Cheating as is mentioned above. And as to Cry-Tom/Cry-Adam why don't you make a special section where we can [b]see/read only[b] your statements and they can not be spammed. Let us talk on this forum in general and have your own section and I'm sure this will cut treats by half and make it looks nice&clear for everyone

AAA games idd always have bugs, HOWEVER! you get response from them, the learn from previous mistakes and fix it.



o really? just like all the bugs in BC2 that got ironed out and then low and behold the exact same issues were in MOH....yeah they learn alright

Like what? MOH had very different issues.

Look ---> http://www.gamesas.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=16516

I'm not defending anyone or anything but what I will say is that virtually every day on here there has been a post or response by the gamesas.com guys and also tweets on Twitter from @crysis and also from @NanoSmartCasual the senior community manager. I seem to remember for example on the Blops forums that although the game was near as damnit 100% unplayable on launch day for a large section of the community, there was nothing posted or responded to in any shape or form by any developer or community geezer for over a week. In fact the infamous Treyarch so called community manager was busy boasting about how good he was at Nazi Zombies.

Like I say I'm not defending I'm just saying that I am ok with Crytek's handling of the problems and think they are doing a far better job at it than others.

Yeah, well I've been waiting for info on what's going on with the SLI flickering issue since day one and all that "info" thread has on the subject is a link to the forum post where we complain about the issue. It's not much hope that they're even aware of why this happened while the demo worked fine and will they fix it with this incoming 1.2 patch.

Like what? MOH had very different issues.

unable to join servers, crash to desktop, crash when starting the game,......same exact issues as BFBC2, and within a month (gasp a month!....yes fixes take time believe it or not) everything was pretty good

I forgot that I didn't get MOH on PC, those are bog standard DICE issues - I remember the same crap with Battlefield 2 and that turned into a legendary PC game after a few patches. You simply can not replicate the millions of hardware setups in an in house test team; the scale of the retail market is impossibly huge.

MOH had much worse issues than that though, like randomly spawning WITH the enemy team at the start of a match, unbalanced kits (sniper), linear maps with one team trapping the other...

Public BETA is supposed to stop this from happening, obviously it doesn't always work.

Nonsense

This is true. The only ones who would put up with us is DICE because they themselves love the PC and know the potential of it. They also know its a huge market, as long as they keep on doing what they are doing.

Maybe you guys should stop whining about meaningless crap, first DX11 will barely improve anything. If you will not play a game because it doesn't support DX11 then you are an idiot and you are missing out. These whining posts just make you guys look like spoiled brats. If you are complaining that you aren't gettting responses from Crytek, then maybe you should stop and realise that these guys have better things to do than entertain a bunch of spoiled children, like working on patches to fix the problems.

Responding:

- Who told you that? As an example, there's a lot of whining from console players through Gamespot/Eurogamer/Shacknews etc. comments. I don't know about forums since I don't have a console, so I don't care. Don't make them look so dumb, not all console players are rich little kids who buy whatever comes out. But most of them are, that's why consoles bring more money than the PC . Let's hope they grow up and find out they're playing the same stuff over and over. On that day games will get better, or sell less
- A bad looking game is a bad looking game, the platform doesn't matter
- "Certain hardware"... PC hardware is not "certain" enough? Come on, these days we have two brands of videocards and two brands of processors plus a uniform environment (Directx). Things were a lot more fragmented in the MS-DOS days. "Much easier to develop"... This is machine and machine-knowledge dependent, plus you have to pay for and learn how to use the development kit in conjunction with a few programming languages. It's the same on the PC using Directx, and the Directx SDK is free. That's why many not so rich, independent developers prefer the PC over consoles. Finally, "much less bugs" depends on how skilled the development team is, not which platform you use.
- We really don't have serious statistics about that. Piracy is a threat, it's always been since the Commodore 64 days, but it's equally true that, sometimes, companies use it as an excuse to cancel PC games like Alan Wake
