I hope that these new textures, and DX11 patch are going to make my PC squirm. Cause at the moment DX11 is no trouble with my PC. (Please make Crysis 2 a game that will take a couple of years to max it out with new hardware....otherwise I will have no reason to upgrade to the GTX 680's and X79 chipset Skt2011).

990X @ 5Ghz - 3x GTX580 - X58 UD7- 12GB @ 2ghz Ram - C300 raid0 etc.


Sorry for all the links, but the images where chopped in half, when adding them as images.

Now when Crysis came out, I had a reason to buy the latest Hardware, just to play the game. Every time a new GPU came out, I had to buy it just to turn the setting up even more.

This is how I play Crysis now...and 4yrs on I still love it.

Someone envious/Jealous?

1600x900 is due to tinypic down sizing the images....Shouldn't you know this?

I use my 63" TV as a monitor. 1920x1080.

And yes I do own all the hardware. http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=206906 Which will take you to my thread on bit-tech.net which I use the user name true_gamer.

Stop lying Simon :P

Nope it's his rig. It was 3 480GTX's before that wasn't it? Along with a 920 I think...

Pete J had the 3x GTX480 and then upgraded to 3x GTX580.

Me on the other hand had 2x HD5970 CFX and the i7 930 previously. I did how ever have 3x Dell U2410 Monitors, which I sold on the Bit-tech forum.

Cheers,

Simon.

About time tbh, why the hell you brought out crysis 2 without dx11 support is beyond me. Don't even get me started with the whole 64bit side of it. For a game that set the bench mark for pc gamers worldwide when it first arrived on the scene, it is such a shame we have to wait until the patch comes. Guess it has allot to do with console gamers, and maybe pressure to release sooner.

I have stopped playing until these are supported, its as simple as that. Why have a Ferrari but drive around with a mini engine?

Looking forward to playing again soon :)

What is everyone expecting this patch will do?

I'm hoping, it will change crysis 2 into something better quality than heaven dx11 benchmark, stone giant benchmark, and ati's/nvidias tech demos.. as crytek is, well ..was , the expected gaming benchmark after every game they make. I also hope they make EVERYTHING destructable. the buildings, trees, people.. etc

I' expecting a small touch up here and there from the dx11 patch. Crytek can use the dx11 path without using any dx11 specific features. Its probably just going to be improved dof, improved lights and shadows, and i know it will be another backlash from pc users.. me included.

I was reading Edge Magazine review on pc crysis 2 and if i remember correctly, the first paragraph had something along the lines of...
'Crysis 2 will be remembered for what it left out, more than what they added'

Sums it up.

@ truegamer1

Do you think this means there will be also an Texture and AI patch besides the DX11 Patch?

That would be awesome... but: This would mean Crytek has realeased an mostly unfinished PC version in the first place.

well, the problem is that to play everything again just to see a little difference is not worth at all. i just finished the game few weeks ago and now i have to play all the way till the end? its not nice. shame on u, crytek.

I think that when this patch comes out already be too late, and people will lose interest.
Also think that this behavior slowly getting people on their nerves!
And what's with this secrecy? What's so secret?
Well, this is not information of national security! I mean, this secrecy is simply ridiculous!

I do think this should have been released from the outset, but it doesn't make me angry or want to whine about having to play through the game again - I'd play through SP again anyway. I just hope Crytek will release the DX11 patch with some sort of other game update that hopefully makes the AI actually intelligent instead of having enemies who apparently can't navigate stairs or around walls when they're off their patrol cycle.

And yeah, does it really have to be so secretive or are you keeping it to yourselves because you may not actually be able to deliver on some of the things you're trying to impliment? We're not waiting for a game release any more, we know the story, there are no spoilers, so can't you just tell us about the update?

Any chance of having the console unlocked? As I miss not being able to use commands such as; r_displayinfo =1
