I must admit there has been a huge drop in local players due to cheating, gfx flickering issues, players getting disconnected.
I will finally admit, although i was reluctant to do so, that yes crytek has sold out the pc community for consoles.

Cant blame them though. They made their money.

I agree, however after reading your post I felt like going to wikipedia and lookie what I found.
PC: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_PC_video_games
Xbox: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_Xbox_360_video_games
(there was no ps3 page)

Looks to me like the PC games on those lists are making more money, and there are many more PC games that sold more than 1 million copies. PLUS I don't think that list includes digital downloads.

Point is they made money. Counted on their reputation. Risk / reward.

"Delving into the Chart-Track info a little further shows that 57% of Crysis 2 came on Xbox 360, 29% on PS3 and 14% on PC (not including sales via digital distribution channels such as Steam). "
http://www.destructoid.com/crysis-2-huge-success-xbox-360-dominates-sales-197396.phtml

Though, not sure how accurate that is considering Crysis 2 was one of the top sellers on steam.
And then again i only know 3 people who actually bought the game including myself.

the whole developer seems dead.


There are no updates,nothing.Only a patch big as an hotfix which fixed pretty much nothing.


In some weeks noone will talk anymore about this game if they continue like this.There are just too much other games will will hopefully kick Crysis 2's loosy ass.

Pretty soon, it will just be hackers vs hackers... Then even the hackers will be complaining.

I dunno, I have only seen 2 aimbotters since the patch, for some reason i dont think aimbots can be stopped outright, only banned after the fact. The other hacks are all gone, though. The netcode seems improved too, I am actually really enjoying the game today

I'm surprised how everyone's unlucky enough to find hackers. I've only met one so far since the release date.

I am always playing on official server and actually never saw a one player who was hacking for 100%, yes there was some strange things going on with 1 maybe 2 players, but since release pretty much i enjoy every game ;) And never have problems with finding server to play, even if i am looking only for official ones, with ping less than 150ms :D

Wow, I had trouble finding servers with room for me to join. All the US pro servers I joined were populated by Russians (90%). There have been abundant servers available and not all were full of people since day one. But the ones that do have people tend to fill up fast, esp standard servers. I joined a zero populated server and after 5 minutes I was joined by a boat load of people. There are a lot of game modes/server modes. Standard has been busy, Classic tends to have the same players over and over as do Pro servers. Standard fills up faster since this game is new and people like to get their feet wet before exploring other modes. Team Instant Action and Instant Action seem really busy to me.

I almost gave up on MP, but then I heard about the patch literally an hour after it was annouced. I went back in and, aside from the pro servers for which I can't tell if someone is using exploits as there is no kill cam), I saw no signs of cheaters, albeit high ping players were able to run circles around the rest of us. I have had the lowest ping of any player I've played with since the game came out (16 to 24 average, even as low as 7!) and it baffles me that it's actually a disadvantage against guys from Russia, Korea, Germany, etc.

Yes the game died overnight. As did the developers. And it's the end of the world. Retards.

I play for 2-4 hours a day since release and yes there are hackers. They are becoming harder to spot. The obvious ones are:
Perma cloak (player is able to run around and shoot weapons without de-cloaking) - Not as common now.
Aim Bot (automatic head shots or bot actually automatically turning or spinning player avatar for instant headshot kills). Not as common anymore.
Speed hack (player is able to run around at higher speeds than normal). Harder to spot unless cheater is abusing the hack.

I think Multiplayer is the best part of this game. The different game types are very creative and keep the playing styles fresh.

If I do encounter a cheater, I will message in chat for all players. If the cheater doesn't leave the server, I immediately leave the server.

That being said, the level of cheating has gone way down since release.

See you all online.

That's probably because with all the freeloader pirates(who doesn't want to pay for anything, including aimbot software)gone, only aimboters and a minority of fair gamers left.

I'm not that surprised, really. They released a patch that fixed nothing, and simply doesn't work. It's getting old, and people are leaving. I'm starting to think that Crytek dev are pretty much just incompetent...

There's a lot of complaining about this game... but as far as the multiplayer goes, this is definitely where the best arguments are made against Crytek's decisions. How a multimillion dollar game in a successful, well-known series could launch a multiplayer component without punkbuster or votekick options w/o admins is just... ~_~

You ask how?

Just look who developed it.... console developer for a console MP part.. that was a 1:1 port on the pc is going to fail hard...

Who in there right mind today makes cvars that are client side, and not checked/forced by the server... totaly oposite of what it was in crysis 1.. there you had punkbuster etc...
