Crytek really needs to use this as an opportunity to show people how good this game really is. The graphics in C2 blows BF3 out of the water and the gameplay (while not as realistic) is so much more fun - and COOL. if Crytek could devote some time and energy to fix some of the major issues with the multiplayer - then when crisis 3 comes out.. it could be the true COD killer. Crytek needs to fix 3 things
1. fix orbital strike lag and stats resetting
2. better anti-cheat
3. release BOTH DLC for free! - AND ADVERTISE IT!
This would bring so many players back to C2 and people could really see this game for what it is...BAD A$$ and fun gameplay. While doing this may not increase revenue right at this very moment, it would definitely increase sales over the next couple years, developing more of a fan base and then when crisis 3 comes out...It would be huge!
BF3 is going to be a good game and i'm still going to buy it just to see how my rig can run it...but if Crytek would use this opportunity to fix this game I think many people would see this game is a lot more fun (better) than BF3 (and COD of course). Crytek needs to invest in their future NOW! and then the Crysis series could go on to be one of the most epic series EVER!
