WHY ARE YOU ADVERTISING THIS.

I'm worried that this might actually cause the game to be delayed. Disk pressing and bookets were already started at this point and if Crytek didn't already change the masterkey between January 13 and February 1 (most likely start date of disk pressing), these copies will need to be destroyed, will cost EA thousands of dollars, and delay the game by another three weeks to ~April 10/April 13.

And all for naught too as whatever DRM they use will be cracked within days or hours anyways...

Its not just the DRM, the masterkey was leaked as well which would give any pirate fully functional multiplayer on the release date. If Crytek is to combat this breach of security a new masterkey will need to be created, which will make disks pressed with the old keys impossible to activate and utterly useless. Leaving the masterkey the way it is will make Crytek lose thousands of sales to long-term multiplayer pirates, while creating a new one could prove even more costly. Its a lose-lose situation, this leak really came at the worst possible time for Crytek.

after this we haven't heard anything from crytek...i wonder if their gonna delay the game or not


Guys, stop with the delay already, why would they delay it? it would push more people to download and play the game..if anything they should release it sooner or release the demo so

why do you ppl think they will delay it?
if anything they will rush it out quicker

It might be delayed if Crytek decided to combat the piracy by recreating a new masterkey. The disks will then need to be re-pressed (which already has started week and a half in probably), which will cause a delay to make sure there are enough copies for release day.

EA WHY ARE YOU STUPID ENOUGH TO GIVE THIS TORRENT FILE MORE PUBLICITY?!

I hope they'll find out who is responsible for leaking this from Crytek, if I remember correctly the same thing happened with Assassin's Creed. The pirated version was leaked 1 - 2 months before the actual release.

If they are going to delay the game by weeks over this, then screw it, I'll download the beta. I've already been waiting almost 2 years for this, but seriously, I just couldn't live with the temptation.

I think I'm going to help EA by telling other gaming forum that - THERES A CRYSIS 2 LEAK TORRENT FILE OUT THERE AND EA IS DEEPLY DISAPPOINTEDIN THE GAMING COMMUNITY -

A disgruntled Crytek employee leaked it, not the gaming community.

@ DJ: you can do whatever you want, but try to stick to the forum rules and don't post if you are torrenting it. ;) Atleast, that's what I'm doing, simply keeping quiet about my personal decision. Or face the ultra powerful banhammer. >:D

I have to admit, I have watched some of the leaked footage. Forgive me of my sins, but the game is looking badass!

Can't wait to pick up my copy next month.

Nothing wrong with watching some videos on youtube. The 1080p vids look amazing. I'm sorry this happened to them but they're actually getting some good advertisemant out of this.

Well now this community seems to have a new edition? Hello Cry-Nick, nice to meet you!

Also, guys, I'd recommend you all to not watch any of the LEAKED footage taken now because you will mostly spoil your game afterwards. We've waited 2 weeks, we can wait a little more for the actual demo!

Guys..
if the game is leaked why dont you play a little?
a going to buy the game so bad!!
but if you have the option to see a bit of the game just for fun what the hell?
its just make my to even want more the game!!

I doubt this leak will have a massive effect on sales. I have been waiting for this game for years so I'm not going to waste my time downloading an old BETA. The people who were hyped for this game will buy it anyway, those who weren't fussed may try the BETA and decide they want the finished product or decide it's not for them and not bother with it. Plus there are those who really couldn't afford to buy the game anyway so the amount of lost sales may not be as big as people think.

I too have been looking at the footage, I always turn sound off, so I don't hear what the characters are saying. Best way to do it, if you can't resist. :p

Yeah I already had one part spoiled from watching footage, but I'm not sure how major it is since I quickly closed it afterwards.
:(

Please be considerate of other users, and don't post plot spoilers here or anywhere else. We are very proud of the story in Crysis 2, and would like people to have the opportunity to experience that story from within the game.

Thanks for your help with this

Brilliant marketing EA...Brilliant! This leak looks to be done intentionally. Very odd that someone would hack into the servers and leak the game.

the thought did cross my mind that this is a media ploy

why would the give it more publicity?

Ok

that leak make me to buy the game even more!!

What gave it away is that they are intentionally saying "its been leaked onto torrents"...just telling people to queue up or go the latest torrent site. Wow...marketing genius at EA. See the number of people who downloaded the game but have said they will buy it?...Potential sale here.

> Leak game
> Blame PC users if game fails (somehow)
> No Crysis 3
