With The Witcher 2 noone promised the most potent graphics in computers. the last one was witth Unreal motor. Now they have create their own motor, for the game. They take care of the fanbase and the promises they made by now... are true.

The problem is not what it is done. The problem is what have been promised.

Crytek didn't promise DX11. There was a rumour that NVIDIA paid Crytek to make DX11 for Crysis 2 and people assumed it would be based on Crysis 1 being DX9/10, 4 years ago.

We knew Crysis 2 was going to be on the consoles, so why is it a surprise to people Crysis 2 is DX9? Crytek marketed their engine towards game houses, not users, just like Epic do with UE3. The engine can do DX11 but it doesn't mean the developers of the game that use it will use DX11.

All DX11 does is make it easier to develop features, it doesn't mean they will use it. There is also the point that there are a lot of XP users out there still use only have DX9, which is a wider audience, more sales.

They did

Presentation of Nvidia GTX 580 GPU. Cevat Yerli, max Crytek responsible, said that they where going to us alll the technology present in this video card. This is a DX11 card, and this means to use DX11.

It is an example, and there are a more, for sure. You only need to Google a little (with time constraint, cause the lot of news of Crytek and Dx11 of this last year)... but you can find it

Crytek is a big stupid corporation now. They don't care about the gaming community, they just want to hang out with their friends from EA and count money. Otherwise why wouldn't they ever communicate to us. They have the worst communication ever. Crysis 3 wont even be on the PC, just watch. EA will tell them that its not good for their bottom line to produce high quality games for the PC, and instead they should create cheap shallow crap for consoles, and pump one out a year. And when EA gets what they want they will own every gaming company in the world, and there will be no more quality titles, and then video games will only be sold to little kids, and every title will be based on the latest George Lucas cartoon. fuk EA, fuk Crytek, and fuk every other company that has no respect for gaming as an art and a science.

+1
I can't watch games like Fable 3 for stupid casuals and 12-14 years kids -.-
Yea, Crytek is strange. If you make game for multiplayer gaming, just community this! Take example from Blizzard pls. Starcraft 2 is the most playable multiplayer game right now

And $ 2,000,000 that nvidia gave for directx 11 ?Yes nvidia gave a sum like that Crytek can pushed on tellation...

Translated to English (by me) :

"As said Cevat Yerli, president and CEO of Crytek, "to Crysis 2, we will use all the advantages of the new GeForce GTX 580 from NVIDIA. A super-soldier with a mission to save New York from an alien invasion requires the best technology available. And with that we are not referring only to his Nanosuit, but also the amazing realism of the geometry of a DX11 GPU as the GeForce GTX 580 can give fans of our PC games."

That's all marketing man. Wake up and smell the coffee. Look @ the crap you bought. Just move along and hope that BF3 will have what it takes, which it does!!!! DICE already showed us what we can expect in real life demo's. Not the crap movies that crytek showed us and told us we will al experience. Nothing but lies. Look up the first teasers and trailers Crysis2 had. LOL, that looked a lot like a state of the art PC game.......now start up you crysis2 game an weeep!!!!!!

Where DX11?Crytek?

Really, what's your problem?

People get's angry because they promised us DX11

Then you attack: "You're stupid, they does not promised nothing"

Then we give proves to you.

Then you say: "You are stupid, it is marketing"

Really. When the rules of the game are that the seller can promise any kind of thing and at the end don't do the things they have promised... I don't know in your country, but in mine it is called fraud.

And this is not that they where not able to do the job fine, it is that they does not do the job they promised us they will do.

So please, I don't know what you bought, but I bought the game they have promised to me. It is a game with Dx11. So until I have Dx11, I will not play it.

And after that, I will uninstall it and forget Crytek for the rest of my life.

Everything! I've had enough! every day to visit the site and wait for this DX11! Waiting for E3! If at E3 will not be presented DX11, then delete the game. And most will not buy a license from Crytek!

The witcher 2 is now the benchmark for graphics :p
Crytek really do **** svck.

So where is the "promise" then? That sentence doesn't promise anything other than saying the GTX580 can do DX11 effects.

when do you think if you can release dx11 patch for crysis 2

So where is the "promise" then? That sentence doesn't promise anything other than saying the GTX580 can do DX11 effects.
The sentence said that they promised that the game with explote GTX 580 and his Dx11 at maximum. At least in Spanish.

Wrong, there is no "promise" in that quote. Also, we're going to get DX11 for Crysis 2 as Crytek said. What can you not understand?

People made assumptions about Crysis 2 coming with DX11 support. Look at the youtube videos, people assume it uses DX11. People need to read proper and not get carried away with media hype.

Even if there was no promise of DX11, the way Crytek went about advertising and hinting about DX11 being in the game was VERY misleading. That is why so many people are pi$$ed

Nvidia paid for DX11.
Why'd you think Nvidia paid Crytek money lol?

Crysis 2 was listed as a DX11 game by one of their sponsors.
Crytek dropped the ball.

Don't worry. The link I post only said that "we are going to use ALL the advantatges of the new GPU 580 of Nvidia... blah blah blah and we are not only talking abouth the nanosuit, we are talking about the fantastic realist of the geometry of Dx11 that one GPU as 580 can serve to the fans of our games of PC"...

Yes, I am understanding wrong the things. I feel sooooooooooooooo stupid.

No.

And please, to release the DX11 two months ago after the game is released... it is a bad joke.

As example: You buy a car. There are no tyres: "They promised me tyres!" "Don't worry, we are going to give your tyres... after two months".

Worst anology ever. You don't need DX11 to play Crysis 2 you muppet.

Worst anology ever. You don't need DX11 to play Crysis 2 you muppet.

Of course you don't NEED it that's pretty obvious. But DX11 certainly irons out the creases. A lot of Crysis 2 looks good but there are still some VERY noticeable shabby parts too. Textures and detail of many objects just look like flat stickers, especially when u go into the sewers and see the floating bottles looking like flat 2D cardboard models. In Crysis 1 one every bottle/object/rock looks for the most part, 3D.

Crysis 2 is being pelted because it didn't live up to expectations. Crytek really aren't doing themselves any favours by leaving the DX11 patch so late

People need to learn that the graphics API has nothing to do with why Crysis 2 is the way it is. Crytek just ported Crysis 2 badly and DX11 isn't going to magically make the game better.

It's actually a fact that Crysis 2 is a good port because it's better than the 360 version, you pay less money, you get a better frame rate. The fact that it didn't come with all the PC stuff you usually expect is just how it is.

A good anology would have been i went to go buy a new car and it didn't come with power steering or ABS and they promised me Power steering!

lmao no tires lol thats funny.

Crysis 2 is the **** it has an awesome story line
and it's different
unlike call of duty or halo
and i never read that Crysis 2 was going to be directX 11 when it came out
i knew they said in the future it would
and you guys need to re-read about the gtx 580 **** they said
you guys don't comprehend so i agree with all the people in favor of crysis:D

Crysis 2 actually gets interesting after the halfway point...in my opinion it was badly ported from consoles...that's all...they didn't ignore PC gamers etc. They're trying hard to get our support back and hey...if it takes 2 months to release a really good patch with DX11, i'll wait for it rather than have an early patch with shoddy capabilities. I'm hoping they're working on the low res textures etc. As for console ports, you really don't have to look far to find a good console - pc port...Mass Effect was a decent port. I just hope Crytek had waited a bit longer to iron out more bugs etc.

i have come to the conclusion that this game is to fast and linear (corridor) for dx11 anyway, would of worked in crysis1 with heeps of open space and plenty too explore .bolt on dx11 ?i think getting rid of the consolerised set up menu is a must.just my 5cents thanx for reading my post duke.

Wait, Crysis 2 for PC is a port? I thought the game was made for PC and THEN ported to consoles. Not the other way around :S

My problem is that i spend money on a piece of **** game. Then they offer a new 4 map DLC and we still have 2 pay for that crap 2. Thats my problem. But, you just keep on dreaming about DX11. Like thats really gonna do something to this piece of **** consoleport. People should really wake up and have a good look @ the games market as it stand today. It full of commercial company's that dont focus and only care about making money. Why do you think that in every year we get a couple of really good games, and the rest is crap.
I mentioned before, that Crytek decided to make a DLC and not a patch with DX11. Do you think that they are really going to make a dx11 patch, when they can make DLC2 for money? What do you think they will pick.
