I experienced something like this with funcom i think (or norwegian company i think) during weekends and breaks there was very little information about the product even if it was important

I am going to buy it for PC, and I am not going to download it, to show my support to Crytek and because here in Spain it was costing approximately 50 Euros when the price of the new games is in the habit of being 70 Euros, so it does not seem to me to be so expensive to be a new game

Crytek has been alerted that an early, unfinished build of Crysis 2 has appeared on Torrent sites. Crytek and EA are deeply disappointed by the news. We encourage fans to support the game and the development team by waiting and playing the final, polished game on March 22.

Crysis 2 is still in development, and the team is hard at work on it and Crysis 2 promises to be the ultimate action blockbuster as the Nanosuit lets you be the weapon as you defend NYC from an alien invasion.

Piracy continues to damage the PC development community. Your company is the only one to blame for this leaked copy.

Killzone 3 Leaked Early


Killzone 3 has recently been found in the wild. Players so thirsty for Guerrilla's next Killzone rendition that they are braving the 40 GB download by the thousands. With just over a week to go and the game being largely well recieved by game critics across the web, it's unlikely that it will have much effect on the bottom line. Even if you have a jailbroken PS3 that is capable of running a game like this, what's the use? One of the best things about Killzone 3 is the multiplayer component of the game. Without access to the PlayStation Network you aren't going to be able to enjoy the finer parts of the game.

Killzone 3 is set to release in just a few days on February 22nd, 2011 exclusively for the PlayStation 3.

Hmm, Now reading the commend from hardstylemaster, It does strike me that Killzone 3 requires 40GB while Crysis 2 only needs 9GB. The graphics will not make it easer on Crysis so I wonder where this difference comes from? I do hope Crysis 2 will be large enough. Not done with in a few hours and big multiplayer levels. Anybody can explain me this difference? I never played Killzone.

Anyway, about the leak.
Aberrantly it was leaked by EA or Crytec itself. No hacker or something and like Killzone shows thinks like this are not only PC related.

The bad thing is that all levels (the full game) leaked in stead of just a few levels. But it might also cause a buzz. I even though about a not so accidental leak to create a buzz, but then not all levels and no master keys (making online gaming also possible) would have leaked.

I do hope that if Crytec would need an extra month, this leak will not hold them to delay it a month. I think in the end the leak will not cause less sells, probably even more.

Man, everybody on this thread are so sentimental. Is it that big a deal? I mean, piracy should be expected, for any game (mainly) on PC. It just came out a little early...

Personally I don't think we owe Crytek anything, (don't hate me). They make extreme games, we pay extreme prices. If Crytek started making really bad games, I wouldn't play them. I like the games because they are great games, not because they have great developers, (it just so happens that great developers often make great games).

And it would be kind of ruining the game to play an unfinished version. The devil is in the details. It would be kind of like eating a steak, and in the middle of it learning it was made from deceased rats. You might not be able to taste it, but it would be on your mind with every bite. (A strange metaphor, but it works).

People are sentimental because Crytek isnt one of those run of the mill gaming developers.They create games which has life and technological advancement to it.There games are special.*wipes a tear of the cheek*

Frankly, the belief that piracy hurts the computer industry is both a truth and a fallacy and locks both users and producers in a pit of circular logic.

The producers and developers are afraid of losing money on their hard earned product. This is legitimate as it takes a lot of money to produce a high-quality game. From artists to level designers to programmers, none of them are going to work for free. However, all too often, producers and developers are so afraid they go through draconian and far over-reaching methods to secure their game against such others. (UPlay's Always On DRM for example). This is apparently because they believe a pirated download is directly equal to a lost sale of their game. While this may seem logical, it often isn't. Most people who download pirated software are not going to buy the software to start with and thus are not a 'loss'. Also, there are those who will download it with the sheer intent of testing and trying it out and do buy it. Thus they are also not a lost sale even if they are one of the 'x' numbers of downloads.

There are many examples where such 'leaks' have only increased the hype and publicity the game recieved and directly interested in this case is this article by TorrentFreak: http://torrentfreak.com/crysis-2-leak-fails-to-result-in-massive-download-fest-110213/

On the other side are those pirates who DO actively hack and break DRMs. Sometimes for the right reasons (having bought the game and wish to use it DRM free) and sometimes for the wrong reasons. While I fully believe that once bought, software is mine to use how I wish without having to jump through ridiculous hoops, the blame cannot be fully placed on the pirates either since the common reaction to such DRM breaks is simply to come out with more ridiculous restraints and systems which just punishes legit users since the pirates ALREADY are or will break it AGAIN.

Ultimately, piracy happens. On all markets, not just PC. PC is just the easiest to share, and hardest to program for. Making it the easy target for both pirates and for companies to stop supporting since consoles are easier (standardised hardware and capabilities, etc) to program for. And PR Stunts and Leaks happen ALL THE TIME.

I think Crytek can start to sell early. I'm very sad.
All important things is gone. Multiplayer Keys, new Sandbox, DLC plans, English (original) / Turkish / French / German / Spanish / language packs,......
And I'm still waiting PC MP Demo.

I personally don't like piracy and love paying for a great product to support the company and people that made it. However that said , since most people have this SP/MP leak I downloaded it too the other day. And guess what. It hasn't made me not buy the game, instead it made me love it, and im so excited to play the finished product. I did a few missions then got satisfied of what i should be expecting and deleted it. I think that is fine, but I know people that have cracked it so you can play Multiplayer through a program called Tunngle. Now that I DO NOT support. I think torrenting a game is to try it out and then go to the shop and buy it if you like it. Not to keep it and start thinking of ways to get around and playing without paying for it.

Thats just my opinion. I have pre-ordered Crysis 2 and im sticking to it as its amazing piece of software. Both in the visual and technological aspect.

PS: Sorry for any spelling mistakes I rushed this in college :D
