So I'll try to be brief, I'm a 32 year old veteran FPS gamer, started out when Doom and Wolfenstein first came out as shareware in the early 90's. Like to think that I'm not half bad at FPS's. K/D ratios are almost always above at least 1.0. I've read the tips, guides, strategies, and whatnot regarding the nanosuit abilities, when to use them, how, etc, etc, etc..

Still I find myself getting my a$$ handed to me with a pathetic 0.54 K/D ration at level 12 because for some reason I seem to have to unload an entire clip to kill someone, but it seems like all they need to do is shoot me in the foot, or just look at me wrong, and I die... fast. (yes, with armor active).

So I'm confused... kinda pissed off, and wondering if anyone else is seeing the same frustration?

Thats because you're lagging. Online portion is still bad it seems. Hopefully they fix it soon.

Well often when I find myself getting killed wrongfully it seems more than one enemy was shooting at me. Don't relay on the kill cam to be accurate. I think it might just be lag. Have you noticed it alot? Some people seem to have it alot. If you scroll through the topicsw you'll see alot of complaining about it. If they give you the old stink eye.. well then armor doesn't help...

Try different guns and perks for your suit and see if anything helps.

Yeah, the killcam only shows you who dealt the killing blow (which could only be one bullet). A lot of times, the guy who killed you had help. More often than not that help comes from his cloaked friends. Keep in mind that this game has a huge emphasis on headshots. Combine that with lag, you might just see one or two bullets hit your head resulting in a death. Do what SwedishTemplar1 said, as well. This game accommodates a huge variety of playstyles so tryout every perk, gun, and attachment so see what suits you best.

I ve got a kill death ration of 3.08 and am atleast on the top 10 of the world in k/d ( legit k/d ) cuz there are some above me with 6000 kills and 0 assist and streaks that are rediculous.

so here is the secret.... why I usualy have about 25 kills / 4 death a game.

stealth enhance + mobility + engery transfer are the most important perks out there , you have to keep up your engery ALL the time.


ALWAYS walk in stealth.
ALWAYS switch to armor mode before you start firing.

kill them , and get full energy back , and step into the shadows with stealth again.

the trick about shooting is , when an apponent is moving to the left , shoot a litle infront of him at his right side.
when an apponent is moving to the left , shoot a litle bit infront of him at his left side.

when entering him face to face , go armor mode and try shoot at the torso directly at him.

use the scarab/silencer/reflex/extended maggs , it s the best out there.

hope these tips will help you , just trust me and do that

i ve bin in the world top with many shooters so I can tell.

^Sweet Advice^ ?

Yeah very nice tips. I wasn't going to bother with stealth enhance but its upgrades look useful now u mention it. especially combined with those 2 perks

I'm kinda like you drew I started out playing Wolf 3d and Doom as Shareware for PC in the 90's. Obviously getting accommodated to a regenerative health scheme now a days is much different. But I feel like there are a lot of latency and lag issues in many games online. As well, I use Extended Mags on all of my guns....even my sniper rifle. I find myself a lot of times if I win a 1 on 1 or 1 on 2 gun battle, I'm always near death at the end, need a reload, and need to recharge my nanosuit. The extended mags are clutch in Crysis 2 IMO

I've had the same problem as well... I've found 2 things with Crysis 2:

1) You really need to shoot upper torso or head. Head shots have always been great in every game, but shooting in the lower torso, legs, whatever doesn't seem to do much in this game.

2) Take a look around before charging uncloaking and firing. Often there is a double team just waiting to happen. Get behind the second guy. Peripheral vision in this game is more limited so stay off to the side or slightly behind. Wait a second then start firing.

Great advice if your game plays smoothly, worthless if it doesn't like the rest of ours. If a guy is 3 secs infront of you due to lag then your dead before you even go into armour mode, even if you think your in armour mode then your actually not as shown in the killcam. You can empty a full clip into someone for them to just turn around and kill you in one shot, you watch the killcam and the bullets you fired didnt even hit the guy but just flew of like 10 feet over his shoulder. I think there are major issues with the connections in this game and it just isn't a fair playing field. I ranked around the 400 in the world mark in mw2 so i know how to play fps, its just impossible to play this game when the lag,hit detection and interpolation attributes are just so different for each player. Now dont get me wrong i love this game i just wish it would work properly for everyone

I agree.

If you can, always try and anticipate, and aim ahead of them. Its pretty useful. I've also come across huge amounts of games that laggy, and regardless of what I do, I'll die first. Hopefully its sorted soon though.

simple. im a 14 year old fps player for only a year or two and i have the same problems. if you watch the kill feed you will notice that they have to work just as hard as you

get a clueeeeeeee

The mp is really frustrating. Lots of lag, crazy **** going on and then suddenly dying, emptying your whole **** mag into a guy without even getting a hitmarker?

i agree but i run the feline, you can ran a bit faster and i try to stealth kill as much as i can, to save the ammo for when i have to take on two or more people.

is it just me whose multiplayer works well? -.-

it does work well, but the mp has some issues ( lags). many people complain, cause theyre shooting their whole magazine, including myself, and nothin happens

Its become an everyday thing for me, although i have to admit the past few days it has got a little better, hoping for a god damn big patch coming our way soon!

Thanks for all of the tips guys!

Good info, thanks!

Had to quote you again to thank you.

Used this setup last night, except with the feline.

Had an average K/D of at least 3 as soon as I set up this class, and followed the advice of WALKING IN CLOAK, getting MVP every game, and it felt so easy. All the abilities except mobility enhance were only level 1 so its sure to be even more effective when they are levelled up. This was on a 2 bar max connection, sometimes only 1 bar too.

You really have to embrace cloak in this game to do consistantly well, at least in TIA/IA

Thanks again

You're not alone. Although I am a lot Younger than you are (I am 19) I grew up playing Doom and Wolfensitien etc. I too find myself getting owned on every game I play. I still have fun although at times its very annoying.

(It got that bad that I broke one of my PS3 controllers.... no joke)

Great advice! I was telling this to my friends yesterday, it's best to engage armor before you fire when cloaked, or any other time.

Best way to be.

Very true. Skill pretty much goes out the window in P2P gaming, (one reason why the COD series is so popular). There's not much you can do when you have one or two bars and the host has 4.

Some people say the game is only fun when you're host and while having God mode on can be amusing, it also just feels really cheap to me.
