Weirdly enough, I found away:

For windows 7 go to here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\crysis 2\bin32
Right Click Crysis2.exe
Click on "Run as administer"
Run the game that way and it will work. Trust me, It will, even if u bought it by steam, do it that way.

I bought it via steam and I couldnt get it to work. So I pvssyd with EA support and they told me to do it this way. First I thought wtf but after I did it. It worked. I still want dx11 graphics :(

Why Crytek, Why?

I got that error one time and then tried it again and was able to get in. Once I got in, aside from my lousy play, I had no other problems. Here's my question/issue though. Do they expect us to enter a code *every* time we jump into multiplayer. That is really inconvenient. Generally once you've entered a code it's stored somewhere and you never have to reenter. Please consider a fix that once a valid code is registered associated with a particular account it saves it and you don't have to reenter it unless, for example, you move the game to a different PC. Thank you.
