MP is not to my liking

Post » Sat Jan 09, 2010 6:23 pm

What's the point of the armor if I have it on and get shot once (not in the head) and DIE!?

And what's with being cloaked and start shooting someone and as it uncloaks my gun stops firing and I get killed. And then The kill cam shows my guy swinging his arm?

Another thing that JUST happened was I swung and hit someone like 4 times and they swing an hit me once and I die????

The spawning is horrible. Spawning RIGHT next to someone is NOT very fun. And to do it over and over. Really not fun. BLAH. I don't know what to think about this game...

Ok it seams that you didn't get the memo when this game came out. Your energy relates to your health and when you shoot while in cloak it decloaks you. And if you can't get the kill when you decloak that's not the games fault it's your own for you must be a real terrible shot to miss a person who doesn't know your there.

Yeah, pretty much nothing works consistently in multiplayer.

I've have armor on with a full energy bar and been shot with ONE Grendel burst in the lower back for the kill.

I've have armor on another time, about half full and some poor sap would unload his entire clip into me only for me to turn about and unload back into him.

I've shot cloaked enemies four times in the back with a shotgun without getting the kill, had cloaked shotgun users shoot me once and kill me.

The game is a poorly programmed mess. The online code is even worse.

Crytek should be embarrassed to ship a product in this state. I've played better betas.

Easily the worst multiplayer shooter I've ever played.

And I've played them all.

Just a complete disregard and disrespect for the fundamentals of what makes a fun GAME (let alone shooter).

Putrid, worthless, embarrassing filth.

A disgrace to a once-great franchise.

Lesson 1: Dont play on red bar or yellow bar. It may seem fine but they are a second ahead of you.

Lesson 2: Armour mode protects you from 7-8 bullets from a single shot scar while normal mode protects you from 4. It pretty much gives you double health, this game requires quick reactions and it sounds like you just lack knowledge of how to play the game correctly.

It has a steep learning curve, you will not be good at it right away and you just have to accept that fact, even though I whored the beta and has a 4.90 K/D im on the full game learning all over again with a 2.70 K/D. Its a learning experience in itself trying out all the weapons and experimenting with different setups to find your niche, thats what makes it fun.

It is NOT a pick up and play game, give it a chance.

MP is BULLSHIIIIIT
So is this thread.

All you're having is lag problems, get over it. But of course you're going to say, "I have a 1,000 MBPS connection".

And you obviously have no earthly clue as to how the spawn system for Crysis 2 works, so STFU. Go ahead, ask me, I bet you my Federal tax return I can shut you up and educate you.

In order for you to explain how it works, it would have to...you know, WORK. Which it doesnt. At all.

Agree! The game is very glitchy, and there are several problems. The Armor mode should allow you to not die, like it does in the Campaign. I think it would make far better gameplay experience! Skill is crucial, and when the Armor is activated, it don't give much of any support... Both players should be able to activate it, and whomever activates the Armor last, with consistent shots by both players & energy levels, should win the fight. I hope I explained that right...

The Melee attack is awful too! You hear no thump, or show any damage! You should get some satisfaction from a Melee, with something... Blood, Thump, Knock the guy across the map, etc.. LOL! Why not pick them up, like the Aliens in the Campaign??? That would be sweet!!!!

Once again, someone who is talking BS when they don't know how something works.

There are two different types of spawn systems, Dynamic and Static.

Dynamic spawns have a specific spawn for both teams at the beginning of the match, along with randomized neutral spawns littered around the map. The beginning team spawn also switches thoughout the match.This is supposed to work to prevent spawn camping. It works like when an enemy or multiple enemies are near that spawn, you won't spawn right next to them. So when everybody is running aimlessly around the map, the spawn system has to pick the best place to spawn that person. Which is why you have enemies spawning next to each other.

Static spawns have a fixed spawn for each team at a designated place on the map, no randomized spawns. So it doesn't matter if the enemy team is sitting right on top of your spawn, you're still going to spawn there. This is where spawn camping is at it's worst. Game modes like Domination in CoD (I don't know if Crysis has this type of game mode yet) get switched from Dynamic to Static spawns if the other team holds either A and B flag or C and B flag. This is where most others have a problem with spawn camping, so it's crucial to not let the enemy team get a hold of two flags and keep them.

The Crysis franchise uses the Dynamic spawn system, as do most other online FPS like Halo, CoD and Gears of War (not a FPS).

Considering the engine, Crytek did well.

This isn't the same **** IW4 engine that CoD has used 4 times in a row, this is CryEngine 3 and it has never been used on consoles before. Of course it's going to have a rough start. What game DOESN'T have these problems, really?

I'm loving this game, I don't have any of these problems other people seem to be having. I continually get 1-2 bars, and very rarely 3, but I can still kill people like I have a 4 bar connection.

All in all, I'm in love with this game and I think Crytek has done a good job.

Check your energy bar. Chances are you're low on it and your opponent isn't. I've been absolutely mowed down by a Ceph gunship with my armor activated (and a full energy bar) and survived. As for the cloaking, that's what happens. Plan accordingly. And as with any online multiplayer game, lag is an issue, be it yours or theirs.

Explain to me how it's **** because I believe I inserted a disc into my Xbox. I pretty sure your Xbox doesn't work anymore if you literally inserted **** into your console. It must smell horrible in your home too.

Your gun stops firing because you ran your clip out dumbass. Try reloading.

And all these haters aren't realizing that the person ou are looking at/ shooting it out with is rarely the person who kills you. Its the guy who was cloaked behind you, or the guy who has played FPS games for 10 years from mid range that you don't see.

Everybody seems to forget the hologram that came with pre-ordering the game. Its retarded and runs straight in to walls, but other than looking like a glitchy player the only way you can find out it's a projection is by emptying your clip in to it.

And as for spawning, I have rarely spawned in front of other players. Some spawn points do put you in a good spot to set up on other people spawning tho. You just need to check your corners, like you would if you were in a real gun fight. Then, remember there may be someone invisible there.

I thought I was unloading in to people too, and they were killing me with 1 shot. Well when I watched the kill cam, I realized my bullets outlined their silhouette, they had armor on, and I dont use armor hardly because I run out of energy running between cover.,

The game is ****.

Players claiming the problems are a matter of skill are **** retarded.

There is no skill in this game. The online code is so terrible, the hit detection is so ****, and the weapons are so inconsistent, that the entire game is a spray-and-pray nightmare.

The game is ****. Pure ****. One of the single worst multiplayer experiences ever foisted on the unsuspecting public. Crytek and EA should be ashamed to take money for this ****.

Firstly for the morons attacking me. Grow the **** up.

For the one saying that my guy stops when coming out of cloak is reloading is WRONG so next time say nothing if you KNOW nothing. My guy stops firing and does NOTHING until I let go of the trigger and push it again. And the ONLY time it does this is when I'm shooting AT someone. Any other time it just keeps shooting as it comes out of cloak. I've tested it.

And the other person saying it's lag, I've had no problems yet with lag. Haven't been hoppin around the map or seen anyone else do that.

And people saying I'm ****... Well I MUST be since I'm sitting there getting hit marker with every shot but then get killed with two hits.

So go ahead and attack away. I'll just be sitting here laughing at you for starting **** with someone over a forum.

omg, the multiplayer is crap.
It doesn't make sense. The SCAR is freakin' overpowered and the energy is empty in less than 10 seconds...
I played a game on parking deck and some kind of **** killed me in an 1v1 but I had the armor on and he didn't!
