Those who try out this beta to the detriment of all waiting to buy the full game without even mentioning they are intending (or even considering) buying the full game are nakedly self serving grasping individuals are are not worthy of merit in any form.

they are the son of the biches, fu*king hackers. I as the fan of crysis 2 will kick your ass in the game! Am I right


quiet kiddie.

The only thing im worried about now is cheaters at multiplayer cause of the multiplayer leak:<

zomfg nice video!

I will separate my comment to 2 sections:
A) I probably will download this version- and I will buy the game when it comes out. Why I need this then? well, I just can't wait any more and if I gonna buy the game any way, who cares if I enjoy it little erlier?
If you have counter opinion, not "you wrong & stupide", but good and based one- I'll be glad to hear it.

B) Still, I want to know- how the game, even if only early version, the game can be leaked? I mean what, one of Crytek with accses to the game files have stolen them and uploaded them to the web? If it is, Crytek has some serius loyalty issius and I hope they will find whoever is in guilt.
If not, someone can explaine me how such thing is possible?
P.S- my English is horirble, but I can understand whatever I told.

I hope the lack of a second official statement after "theres a torrent link of crysis 2" isn't because of laws in the country about the weekends

I'm pretty sure that a large majority of people who have the beta will either buy or pirate the full game at some point. I think that if you succeed in convincing a person who downloaded the beta that they cannot redeem themselves by buying the full retail copy you maybe take away some of their resolve for doing that, and in doing so you might damage sales of the game.

Cryteck is one of the lonly editor who think that the pc is better for the games.
Why it happened to them xD
i'll buy the game no way.
Maybe the leacked game will encourage people to by crysis 2, it could be a kind of publicity...

they failed to mention that this was leaked internally....
they leaked it and are now blaming the pc community, how cowardly.
just trying to phase out pc gaming in a way that they dont look bad.
well im buying it anyway and if it turns out to be an XBOX port to pc i will be demanding my money back... im paying for a pc game not xbox ported to run on pc, in that case you might as well call this COD

oh and pc time has not passed... sorry that your IQ isnt high enough to play pc games

For what ive heard the build is old and uses ( no matter which mode u choose) the same low res textures.
wait for the final game... it will blow the leak away!

Did you even read the first post?

Cry-Nick never blamed anyone, just piracy. That's all. If anyone makes assumptions that they are blaming the PC community, maybe you need to visit your local opticians, to get your eyes checked.

But I can feel for the developers, they worked their asses off on this game, I can imagine.

Leaks and piracy is not news, so Crysis 2 for PC will still sell as well as the original, if not better.

@ Sahdev_92

you must admit though that this time its not the fault of any release group or something ... and these groups are mainly to blame for piracy on the Pc sector. I dont want to excuse the work of the releasecrews in any way! But this time... it wasn their fault.

its getting closer that the leaked beta copy C2 is slowly becoming the demo they said, then all there words will be on the fire, tho the man be saved, its like dead wood even now. agenda's ha LOL or for a better word there craftiness, so see through, LOL and about working there ass off try working on a buiding site through a winter thats work, LOL

he blamed piracy which most people here are taking as release groups or "hackers" i would just like crytek to say it was an internal matter and not someone outside so dont get your panties all bunched up.

dont start taking stabs at my vision... its perfect 20/20

It svcks that this happened because of spoilers but there's no doubt in my mind this game will still sell even more than the first did. Everything will be fine for Crytek trust me.

If a hacker did this, then I'm wondering why doesnt he wait untill Crytek finish it ?

Screw those pirates.
I Pre-ordered the Nano Edition. So you've got my money and support.
A game like Crysis should be bought.

The multiplayer seems to be nothing close compared to the old one in crysis 1.

It would be sweet with a karma/ "like" system on this forum. I have given Crytek support by pre-ordering the nano edition! Want to play the game NOW!

SWOT anolysis Monday morning at Crytek HQ! Everything else is BS.

huh?

Crysis 1 MP svcked tbh. Everyone has insane accuracy and kills you in like 1-shot (at least in power struggle).

This game will be very very console-like belive me.And there is nothing u can do about that. No destuction(like it was on 1 game),nothing just console ****.
Cool story bro.

For those qqing over this leak...have a read of this article I just found

Crysis 2 Leak Fails To Result in Massive Download Fest

Next month the long-awaited Crysis 2 is due for release but perhaps inevitably it’s already been leaked onto the Internet. Although it’s a PC beta version which requires some coaxing to perform, publisher EA has already decried this unofficial release and some gaming blogs have gone into overdrive condemning ‘evil pirates’. But hey, let’s all cool down for a second. Just because people can pirate, doesn’t mean they always do.

Crysis2Type ‘Crysis 2′ into Google and the first result you get is the official site. The second result is a post from publisher EA’s blog titled ‘Crysis 2 Leaked’

“Crytek has been alerted that an early incomplete, unfinished build of Crysis 2 has appeared on Torrent sites. Crytek and EA are deeply disappointed by the news,” the post begins.

Indeed, a beta of the PC version of the game has been doing the rounds on torrent sites since Friday and although clearly unfinished and requiring varying levels of hoop-jumping to keep it running, it’s getting a pretty good reception from those who have downloaded and played it.

The fact that it has leaked, however, has caused gaming blogs to go into overdriven condemnation of the anticipated rampant piracy of this much awaited game. In particular, Destructoid editor Jim Sterling has gone postal with a passionate four-letter-word-littered tirade aimed squarely at pirates.

While some of Jim’s points are debatable, he makes some good points and is clearly absolutely passionate about games. As a former 8bit coder and gamer of more than three decades myself I can respect that. People love games. They appreciate the work that goes into them.

While it’s rare to hear people complain about movies or music leaking onto the Internet in file-sharing circles (in fact such situations are largely relished), games are a bit different. This leak of Crysis 2 appears to show that there’s something, even in piracy circles – I’m not sure what – that elevates the connection people have with games and their creators over the connection people have with those behind movies for example.

As both EA and Crytek plead with people to wait for the March 22 release date for Crysis 2 they appear to be supported, not just by those who never pirate, but also those who do.

Despite the beta being widely available, TorrentFreak stats show (completed) downloads of just 10,000 on public BitTorrent trackers. And that’s not because this title isn’t popular with gamers. Indeed, given the current mood, it’s not unthinkable that these low download numbers may well be a result of it being quite the opposite.

While some people are clearly happy to get an advance copy, it’s eye opening to see people on torrent sites encouraging others NOT to download it. Sure, there is the usual crowd throwing a middle finger up to the publishers while delighting in their juicy booty, but so many others are pleading with people to support Crytek by putting their hands in their pockets next month instead.

That said, there are others who aren’t heeding the advice but are treating this download as a demo to be deleted in due course, having grown tired of waiting for an official one to be released. Perhaps there’s a lesson to be learned there.

High profile game leaks don’t have to result in the doomsday scenario feared by their creators – unless they’re terrible games of course. Rewind back to October 2003 and a beta of Half-Life 2 was also leaking onto the Internet, a full 6 months before its release date, putting this 49 day advance copy of Crysis 2 in the shade. HL2 went on to do staggeringly well, selling 12 million copies to date.

Personally, as upcoming games in this genre go, I had my eyes mainly on Epic’s Bulletstorm but having seen the various videos on YouTube recorded by people playing this leaked beta, all of a sudden March can’t come soon enough. Crysis 2 looks absolutely gorgeous and while I don’t feel much warmth towards EA, I’m happy to support Crytek.

But why, when the game is sitting right there for free?

Do gamers really have more empathy with studios than their movie-going peers? Why are great games so special? What’s your take on this leak and how it should be handled? Are these download stats low because people are doing ‘the right thing’ or is fiddling about with betas just too much hassle? We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
