Knock Knock, Crytek. Our Community and the Demo Dilemma

Post » Thu Jan 06, 2011 7:15 pm

Some people here should get a life xD

You talking about yourself? Get constructive or stay out of it.

You people who aren't buyin anymore are a bunch of babies. PC is still going to be the best version regardless of any of those complaints. I cant wait to play this game on my PC.

Grow up you bunch of brats.

You are telling me that you will spend money on a game that you have not even seen development of? Having faith in these companies to deliver a working game always fails.

Perfect example of a game people had faith in and it failed miserably:Black Ops. Sure glad I did not even consider that heap of junk. I was lolling in their forums the day it came out and the complaints started rolling in.

Have you played it? No? Oh Im sorry. I thought you played it since you can already tell what it will be like. STFU and quit judging things based off of 5 dumb reasons.

@Talon95
I dont trust Treyarch/IW. I do however trust Crytek because they made one of my favorite games this gen. Are you saying that you wont spend money on a game that has 5 problems that arent even important. Two of those reasons are things that you wont even think about once the game is released.

@blake_gedye
Its a game. A form of entertainment. Its not like your race or anything. There is no reason to make a stand because there is no type of descrimination. If I were a company who wanted to make money, then I would expand to consoles too. Its a business.


Like I said before people. Grow the hell up. Just because consoles get a little more attention before release because the company wants to increase their fan base in other areas doesnt mean you should act like a bunch of spoiled brats.

Those 5 problems are summaries of the 500 problems that they can/will create. I just did not spend half my day listing them all off.

PC will be the best version? Really? How can you be sure? Have you seen it running? Or are you just assuming that because PC's have "superior" hardware that things will magically run better. Just because PC's might have better hardware doesn't mean that things are better (see CoD: BO PC issues).

There's a legitimate reason as to why we're pissed. Has crytek confirmed anything on the PC? No. Not even a single **** pixel of any screenshot released. Not once have they said "Look. Here is a screenshot. It's from the PC version." It's either been 360 footage or random cryengine 3 screens. It's not just the 360 exclusive demo. It's the entire lack of any confirmed footage/news.

What was the E3 demo shown on? Xbox 360. "Hero's Journey" Trailer? Xbox 360. Mutiplayer beta? Xbox 360. Multiplayer release trailer? Xbox 360. Multiplayer demo? Xbox 360. It's kind of ridiculous.

Also, it's not a matter of consoles getting attention. They can give the xbox and PS3 as much attention as they want. Good for them. Where the hell is the attention for the PC though? You can publicize for the PC and console versions at the same time. The PR guys just have to stop banging hokers and actually work for their damn money.

All the signs point to the game being dumbed down from the original Crysis. You'd have to be an idiot to not realize this. So many features have been limited or outright taken out. They also refuse to show the PC version of the game even though the game is coming out in two months. It doesn't take a genius to put this all together. If anyone is being a baby, it's you. You certainly have the reading comprehension and deduction skills of one.

You guys are over reacting. Yes Xbox gets a demo. Huzzah. Isn't that what Xbox live MSRP is for? At first they said a demo would be costly and one would probably not be on the way. This is what Xbox live money goes to people. If PC players paid for their access then they would get one too. Guess Sony isn't high enough off PSN+ to go for this though. I swear you people are all so damn smart but jump before the gun. I am disappointed in this community's lack of enlightenment.

Xbox gets a demo and every single shred of significant PR ever released for this game. Some people are over reacting, but it's not unprovoked.

Again, this is not about the xbox getting a demo - it's about the other platforms getting no attention whatsoever.

Aww, poor baby. You don't get a demo/video? I feel so bad for you. You know, your completely right, if they cant give you a demo then it will probably be the worst game ever. I guess I will just play it without hearing your winy voice over the mic. Oh well, my loss.

P.S. Good job insulting my intelligence Mr. Mature. It really hurt me deep.

People canceling their pre-order just because they don't get to play a demo of the game is the most laughable thing I've heard on these forums.

...in response to me? How ironic. Civilized isn't the entire community freaking out about how they don't get to play the game EARLY. I'm not necessarily saying this in response to your OP, but to the entire community's response to this announcement. It's certainly not civilized.

It's not just because of the demo. It's the entire wave of frustration that's built on two years of cryEAtek not showing any pc/ps3 footage. The demo is the spark that set the gas on fire. It's not the gas and the spark that sets it off. Big difference.

That was directed towards the entire community once the insults started, not in response to you. ;)

Then what is it then?

You didn't get a beta? You wont even remember that after the game is released.

There are less players? So. Its nothing to cry about. Just get BF3 if you want a massive amount of players. It will probably be more balanced with less. The first Crysis's multiplayer was severely unbalanced.

No information about the PC version? Who cares? It doesn't mean its not good. Thats just ignorant to assume that.


Good job insulting my intelligence again. You don't have any other good comeback or something? Because all you do is say that I'm wrong and then insult me on my intelligence. Sounds to me like you are just being butt-hurt.

You come in here calling everyone brats and babies and you're wondering why I'm insulting you back? Man, you stupider than I thought! If you want to know my reasons, read my previous posts again. This time read them properly. Take some time after and read them again. Let the information sink through your thick skull. Why should I bother repeating myself to a guy that uses "butt-hurt" in a conversation? Grow up, please.

It sounds like the world is going to end if there is no PC/PS3 Demo! Crytek/EA have there reasons to not have demos for these system...it comes down to there reasons which we really don't know, we just think we do. To me if you cancel your orders it seems you will lose the most because you will not be playing the game you were once excited about....so don't let Crytek/EA take way your enjoy of gaming because they are releasing the demo for another system, be glad that at least the game is coming out for all formats. Now, if Crytek/EA said it was coming out for x system and than they canceled last minute...that would be a reason to get upset! Once the game comes out everyone will be forgetting about the demo anyways. So lets all be calm and friendly here. Cheers

I think it'll get a lot calmer soon ghost. in the end, this announcement was always going to create a rage train. Personally, they should've made an all platform demo and boosted sales. Instead now they've dented sales and not raised awareness, it's a loss-loss situation for crytek.

Microsoft must be paying a lot :)

It's not terribly clear why we're disappointed so let me say this again. It's not just the 360 demo. It's the entire lack of information about any version other than the 360 version on a multiplatform game that follows an icon of pc gaming.

You didn't get a beta? You wont even remember that after the game is released.

Unless the game faces performance issues after release because there was no public beta. The reasoning behind this is that a public beta (whether it is closed or open) helps to weed out bugs and performance issues that can't be reproduced in a relatively small development environment. Public betas (again, whether they are open or not) help alleviate problems on the widest array of hardware platforms and running environments before the game is released to paying customers. While this is critical on any platform, it's especially important on the PC because of the high probability of variance. Every piece of software has bugs, so why test for bugs on only one platform?

There are less players? So. Its nothing to cry about. Just get BF3 if you want a massive amount of players. It will probably be more balanced with less. The first Crysis's multiplayer was severely unbalanced.

I agree. I don't mind that the player cap is lowered (I can see how people would be pissed about this, but I don't mind as much). My favorite matches on wars were on small maps with 6-8 players.

No information about the PC version? Who cares? It doesn't mean its not good. Thats just ignorant to assume that.

People who are paying to get it on PC care. Yeah, it doesn't mean it's not good, but it's also naive to assume that everything is fine. You say that it's ignorant to assume that a lack of footage means that the PC version is not good, yet it's equally as ignorant to assume that everything is fine. There is certainly a reason why no PC/PS3 footage has been released. I choose to interpret this as crytek's lack of confidence/caring for the PC/PS3. You interpret it as something else. It's not like either of us is correct - it's just a difference of opinion.

@Hark
Again with the intelligence insults. Honestly I am not seeing one thing you said that I have not mentioned before. You had one useful comment on the first page which I have already covered in my previous posts and then you follow with a mixture of intelligence insults and "your wrong" statements.

P.S. You ARE being a brat. Your complaining over things just because you wont get a game that caters mostly to PC gamers and leaves console gamers in the dust. Have you ever stopped to think that they couldn't put 64-player multiplayer with vehicles and everything while keeping the graphics as good as they appear to be? Have you ever stopped to think that since Crytek is a business, they might want more money and therefore try to treat a gaming community better that they aren't sure will accept the game as well as PC? Have you ever stopped to think that they assume PC gamers will be behind them since they already proved themselves to us with Crysis 1? YOU ARE A BRAT. I honestly hope you don't buy the game sir. I honestly hope that I wont hear an annoying kid whine over the microphone as much as you do. Now I am done talking to you because you are so confident that this will fail even though you know nothing about the current status of the game. You have never played it once. So go ahead and reply. Insult my reading capabilities or my intelligence again because I am done with this thread.

Hark STOP it already. A debate is a debate, not everybody needs to agree but pointing out different opinions and accepting differences is what matters. I do not want this thread locked.

Shackdaddy has some very good points that I also agree with, which is why I said im personally waiting until a demo or review is released for the PC when I will be more informed about what the heck I am purchasing. ;) Also, the PS3 has gotten the same, if not more neglect than the PC version has with marketing.

Indeed, the ps3 version has only been seen once in a screenshot. At least for the PC version with heard 'it looks frikkin' gorgeous and kicks crysis 1 in the ass' from a few places. Hopefully this multiplayer demo is for 360, but we get a nice multi-plat single player demo in late feb/early march.
