One good Reason On Why No PC Demo

Post » Thu Jan 06, 2011 2:23 pm

That was weird. Each paragraph you wrote you showed a little more anger toward PC gamers. You started off being in the same boat then went to saying Crytek should cancel the PC portion.

I just thought that was kinda weird how you wrote that. Sorry.

No, hackers will affect any game, including console games. Delaying the inevitable doesn't help anything. There are really only two possible explanations for this:

1) Microsoft paid them to do it. Makes sense, considering that Crytek and Microsoft have had a relationship since the original Crysis, with the DirectX 10 nonsense to promote Vista. There is also that Xbox 360 exclusive, Project Kingdoms. This could just be another part of their agreement.

2) They focused so much on the Xbox 360 version that the PC and Playstation 3 versions are behind. This would also explain why almost all media released has been of the Xbox 360 version.

A combination of the two may also be possible. Either way, it's quite pathetic on Crytek's part.

hey Satan...il call you Satan cause of you're name...
listen here son, you should know that hacks on the XBOX and PS3 are more accessible... take MW2, it's filled with the most craziest hacks on the net, If you're saying to cancel it on PC i'd recommend Crytek to even the cancel the game as a whole; the reason Crytek is on XBOX and PS3 is because the amount of pirating done in the PC version: they expected more money to flush in but didn't due to the obvious.

That said, Crytek has been working more money for creating it multiplatform for the money.... I cannot agree to my fact any more, but you Satan, since you have been a bit over the top on gaining the advantage, I'l give you kudo's here... If it wasn't for the PC gamers, where you have done many tricked,fooled,tempted,deluded..etc things..... you morons were not powerful... or are you?, that and the reason how God given you guys such beautiful technolgy as a test for greatfulness to snap you out of doing wrong, you Satanic losers claiming it Cry-engine 3.... so shut it. you should have not tempted you're satanic minions into hacking the world of computers anyway, but I'l give you Kudos for giving the pious some techniques for the future.

Now i know why Crytek said that the PS3 version will look better than the xbox one and the PC version will look better than both.
So,the result is (at least that's what they thought it's going to happen)
1."PS3 version will look better than the xbox 360 version" = PS3 fanboys pleased about this and fell victorious
2."PC version will look better than both consoles and better than first crysis (yea i'm sure it will look better than the first crysis with your "new" engine...)" = PC players ancious to play the game as early as possible.
Wait...they didn't said nothing about the xbox version that will make them feel great that they own a 360? (something similar to the ps3 statement)

Maybe they said those things about the ps3 and pc version to compensate the lack of a demo for these 2 systems...
It's like... Crytek - "Don't worry we already told you enough about the 2 systems that you won't need a demo to test it out before you buy it.Just close you eyes (we got it opened for you) and go preorder it,trust us it will be fun...says the illuminati member...(Yerli)
This is just MY oppinion.

Aahhh my sensible companions, well done, you make it look like all t0o unreal:
indeed that Microsofts Iluminate's are doing soo much just to keep up the money, the fact about that nonesense DX10 was all too obvious, but nobody complained.

there is a catch though, the real truth on the XBOX part is also along the lines of truth, XBOX is the weakest out of the console groups involving sheer graphics, the meanings of this is exact: PS3 version and PC version are more improved by the looks and everythings else, they just wanted to advertise how it would look like in XBOX makes it more deeper for the PC and PS3.

Let's JUST all be honest with ourselves in the Worldwide Market of Video Games, CRYTEK wants that over exposure in the sense of broadening it's awareness in today's society as a competitive & viable Game Developer! All these threads & rants as only helped them to achieve what they wanted you avid gamers to discuss your disgust on the upcoming release with friends, colleagues @ work, family and other gamers in the community, these threads are not damaging but the opposite, your giving them that Scandal we all read about in the Mexia about some Celebrity or Politician (everybody has to read it & discuss it in the millions). FACT is this Game CRYTEK has developed will Sell More on the Xbox 360 than any other gaming machine which Multi-platform game today hasn't?
For e.g. Black Ops with DLC first to 360 owners, MW2, Red Dead Redemption, NFS, Dead Rising 2, Mafia 2, BFBC2, just to name a few & we all know MS have more money to spend than any other gaming company! So enough said, let's wait & see then judge the game based on two things cos I know majority of demos I've played don't represent a game at all. So the two things are Metacritic review scores in around a week before release & early gamers who end up be the lucky ones & getting it a week early and posting and showing their videos on streaming sites or YouTube! I'm still buying this game for 360 & PC, I've seen loads of videos and haven't been disappointed

Seems Crytek have done some exclusivity deal with MicroSoft Things like this happen all the time and it's no big deal in my opinion. I'm not interested in the MP anyhow.

Also please view your point shyeem.... if they get BAD view about Crysis with that rant you just said.... they are not going to be active for a long time......
jac me too. I really want a good story....but unfortunatly i do not wish to only play that, since the games campaign as always with some of the games of today are all 8 hours long..... pfff. I really want a 40 hours of gaming like an RPG based game.

I think a 8-10 hour campaign is about right. Take the original Crysis & Warhead, I think they would have become tedious if they lasted 4-5 times a long as they did. I look at them as interactive movies.

I can see only RIGHT decisions here. It doesn't matter MS or EA politics/marketing, but Crysis 2 going to reach big success. You'll see.

Big success = great support. Crytek is not Infinity Ward or Treyarch, they more skillful. Result will be outstanding, I think.

Here's no reasons to think different. Yes? Really?

You're right in the second paragraph.
How much did BO sold?too much,they've reached 1 billion(at least that's what they said...).
Too easy to brainwash these days,there are like...how many? 4 COD games on the same weak/outdated engine and kids still go like "momy momy could you buy me BO plzzz plzzz plzzz!?!?!?!?" thats more than 70% of the cod crowd really is.
If IW/treyarch will release 20 more cod games on the same engine kids will still buy because of the awsum POWERS and camo skinned wepuns that you can unlock if you get KILLS with a barrett(or any weps that are in the game) weaker than a berreta...
So now every dev must make they're singleplayer "long live the usa" style and multiplayer with all kinds of WOW type perks and ****...thats the only way you can sell a game these days...

I supported crysis 1 and crysis warhead, I said my suggestions for Crysis 2, I helped my friends to discover Crysis(of course on pc) and convince them to buy Crysis 2.
Now I'm sad, because i see Crytek doesn't reward us for our efforts.

I am going to have to agree with zero punctuation here on DVRM and game protection in the recent Years they have GONE WAY OVER BOARD

only creating a challenge to the hackers and annoying us paying customers to the point we dont want to buy there products anymore

It seems gaming companies solution is similar to a mob bank getting robbed

The robber holds up the bank and gets away Scott free with all the banks money

Then the bank guard is order by the branch manager to shoot everyone else in the bank as retribution and to make sure no one sees how easy it was

I do remember Crytek saying they would release there games at a lower cost to combat piracy ie a 39 dollar release vs a 59 dollar release

How much you wana bet with Microsoft and EA involved that went the ***** out the window =)


These game companies are so greedy they are talking about ways to stop people from tradeing used games at places like gamestop =).

Its EA's part. Remember they are PRing the game, which means they put the demo for exclusivity.

Its not MS doing anything, if it was MS would be going **** crazy and telling the world about it being that they have nothing really HUGE on the exclusive plate.

Best and most effective DRM is like that seen in bad company 2. Simple code for registering online, and no released dedicated server code. Means no piracy for online play, and tbh, no-one gives a damn about offline for games like battlefield. Piracy has taken a nosedive since steam went mainstream anyway, with trackers showing around 1/10th the users compared to 2007, even the biggest games like starcraft 2 aren't really under threat (about 200,000 pirated copies, and hardly any post demo).

Black Ops is dealing a HUGE blow for pirates, number one game hacked on PS3 and pirated after the jailbreak scene, number one pirated from PC to Xbox.

Across the board there has been over a million pirated copies of Black Ops.

Aye, and not a single one can play online on PC, since they followed the same kind of system as EA, but with steam harboring the codes :)

Same kind of system. Steam has the product key, dedicated servers with no server file release, checking PK's with steam purchases = result.

aye, but you still need to link to steam.

Dedicated servers with no public code and product keys linking to a database is the best form of anti piracy going :D

It should be standard on PC, so then you never have to deal with p2p server hosting and you also cut down pirates by a lot :)

Aye, steam is essentially the PC platform. All we need is for valve to buy openGL, kick it into overdrive, make their own OS and cut M$ out of the loop entirely for PC gaming.

Give it a year or two and they'll definitely be rich enough!
