Early unfinished version of Crysis 2 appears on Torrent site

I don't understand what's wrong with this leak, the pirates are going to pirate regardless if the game is an early build. They're just going to download it again, anyway.

I wish they would release the demo now nicely polished then maybe most people could forget about the leak and start talking about the game.

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

i would be very careful with what you admit to. Crytek said themselfs that anyone admiting to have downloaded the torrent will be dealt with swift and harshly. Correct me if i am wrong but i am very sure that is what they said.

They can't do anything, they have no proof ;) I could be lying. Not really bothered anyway I still support them, I have still preordered the game. They cant sue anybody, its all over the internet anyone can download.

hmm i dont know.. i suppose they could if they wanted to but that would mean thousands of people. But still if you have played the game please dont spoil it for others and it is very good to hear that you are continuing with your pre order. (=

Crytek would be in a very tough situation here. They would be going through every possible way of fixing this and addressing us as a community on what will happen. So give the guy's some slack, their doin it tough at the moment but everyone knows that their gonna be fine (=, as for your question.. I guess the game will still come out on schedule, and no doubt we will have some information within the next week or so.

by the way red dead redemtion and crysis 3 wont be on pc.

1) Who said Crysis 3 is not on PC?

and

2) Who cares if Red Dead Redemption is on PC?

PS: If Crysis 3 comes out on this generation of consoles it's not really Crysis 3 though is it. It's Crysis 2.1. Personally I think if Crytek jumps to console before the next gen of consoles arrives it shot itself in the foot because it's reputation at the cutting edge is going to be what makes Crytek hugely successful financially at the start of the next console cycle, and going forward from there.

I think also Crytek is one of afew developers who look at new consoles as an opportunity and this will result in Crytek pwning a lot of big names who look on it as no more than a pain in the butt.

theres no place on earth where its illegal to download a product, misty mith, now if i was to sell the product on and make money thousands of pounds from it, well, then they would have to prove it. so to use it as a test to find out weather i'd like to buy the product, is saving the company money from the cost of promoting it, so if i was the torrent site i'd be sending them a invoice, of what they owe the torrent site, in promoting there product, LOL, I ad a good upbringing my perents tought me to share and not to be selfish, and give, with a good heart, so it says alot about the attuide of a few, and also personally would not hurt now one over somthing of nought , 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 may be or not be, no one knows how it got leaked.
However, even if someone got his hands on a internal copy, he didn't have to post it on the internet! I cannot imagine that someone from Crytek or EA posted it on internet himself. So I think it is right they blame piracy. Piracy is not only hacking, it is also distributing something that is not yours!
I will be buying the game when it comes out, Crytek still has my support.

It's an internal leak, anyone who can't see that shouldn't be allowed an opinion.
It came from the Crytek main branch, maybe an employee with an axe to grind? I don't know.
However, the most interesting part of this is the SolidShield stuff.

they should answer whether its a marketing ploy or not

"theres a torrent file out there to have"
"is this a marketing ploy?"
"we're deeply dissappointed"
"is this a marketing ploy?"
"we've put blood sweet 'n tears into this game. what do you think?"
"is this a marketing ploy?"

I remember how a company in the UK was employed by Atari for mass litigations against "pirates". That was on Watchdog (a TV show about consumer rights) in the UK because among other things they threatened to take an 87 year old couple to court for trying to download Turbo Outrun onto their printer/internet fax or some BS LOL (they [Watchdog] had IT experts look at a lot of different defendants hardware and found no trace of the downloads). Whole thing was an Epic fail because the public got the very distinct impression that they were just litigating people at random and trying to rob the public.

Atari dropped it, almost instantly after that and I think they also changed their lawyers, whole thing was a mess. But it must be illegal because one lady who didn't turn up to court got hit with a 6000 pound fine.

Further I'm sure the Torrent site is already very happy to be getting lots of hits it isn't about to be sending Crytek a bill.

To be honest it probably seemed to everybody who saw the TV show that these legal eagles tried to invent additional piracy to get more future business.

I don't think it's a PR stunt, unless it's a PR stunt gone wrong, or a trap to stop PC development period.
