You might want to add the TRULY modular gameplay... You could literally play it any way you wanted. In very, very limited ocassions were you forced to slaughter everything in your path or engage in enormous set-piece battles, and very rarely did you find yourself in claustrophobic one-way corridors...

Not to mention a LOT of stuff could be broken: Boxes, sandbags, trees and other forms of vegetation, shacks, radar jammers... What can you break in Crysis 2? Cars and do superficial, purely aesthetic damage on some columns, walls and fences? C'mon...

And how about the truly dynamic run and gun playstyle and Speed Mode offered? That was AWESOME. Running into guys ramming them to the ground, grabbing them and throwing them in the air (without Strength, so that they're still alive) and shoot them down on-air, sprinting in zig-zag dodging bullets...

Did Crytek do ANYTHING right? The only good things that were in the official MP demo (aiming while Powerjumping, reloading and sprinting simultaneously) were REMOVED BY RETAIL, WHAT THE HELL.

Either way, spoken like a true customer: Loyal to no one but TRUE QUALITY.

See, you can't even reply to an argument without resorting to an insult. The "open letter" is just angsty rubbish for which there was no need, do you think they'll treat your open letter seriously if all you're going to do is berate them?

calm down, this guy obviously cares about the condition of the game.

I agree man its ridiculous but Crytek is never going to see this, they know theyre gonna make more money this way and sadly thats how the world works.

Op probably hasn't even played the game. Just another sheep following the angry nerd herd.

I have to disagree with you that Bad Company 2 is as bad as Black Ops. At least it supports DX11...

Funny how everyone thinks that they are the perfect representative for the community...you do know we have a forum here and people at crytek are intelligent and can read them. I don't need some guy with too much time on his hands and serious anger issues telling Crytek what I want, they already know. Oh and by the way, people who have like 800+ posts in 2 months and start a gripe fest thread every 30 minutes aren't representative of the community either, they are just more voiceful and have too much time on their hands (that was not directed at OP just something I noticed about alot of the hate threads and their authors/main contributors)

He doesn't care about the game. If he did, then his complaints would be constructive and not abusive. OP is just looking for attention because he's ignored in real life because he clearly lacks communication and social skills.

Borss, you certainly beat me to it on the insults and you clearly didn't even read it. "Whiny bich" was your opening comment - you're in no position to start pointing fingers here.

I even said in the message that I'd pre-ordered it. I have the game and I've completed the single player campaign. I'm now trying (somewhat fruitlessly) to play some Multiplayer. I enjoyed the Demo MP a lot (while it lasted).

Don't get me wrong I still enjoy the game - but that doesn't make it any less a disappointment.

But of course - feel free to discuss my own behaviour and motives instead of having a sensible discussion about the points I've made. We wouldn't want to lose focus would we? ;)

Could have agreed with you up until the OP sentence, really you're the one that needs to grow up.

Definite +1 on that. I'd expected a few people to turn around and say "I disagree with X because Y and Z" - that's what sensible debate is about and what (I'd hope) community forums are supposed to provoke.

Personal comments? Not what I'm in it for. If anyone wants to than that's their call. The occasional contained angry rant aside, I'm not the kind of person to take offence easily.

Phonic, ignore Borss. Obvious troll. Carry on with your day knowing that people with a brain can comment on your post without insulting or getting angry at you.

I personally even agree with both your views and choice of words.

Funny how anyone who doesn't agree with all the hate speech going around and points out reasons why peoples arguments are broken are trolls.....

velozzity, if someone had said that they disagree with a point made with some kind of explanation as to why - then nobody would even think about calling that person a troll.

But nobody has done that yet, it's been little more than infantile name calling. Hence, trolls which should be ignored and dismissed.

Edit: I'm not quite sure if I'm interpreting your post quite right, the grammar is a little ambiguous.

Funny how you are trying to act like the "community" is perfectly fine with this much anticipated software release. I agree with the OP and every other rant here. This forum even svcks and leaves a lot to be desired! How hard would it be to have a single locked sticky covering all issues updated regularly??

I did read it. I insulted you because there's a hundred other threads biching about the SAME EXACT THINGS! They've been discussed a thousand times already on these forums in the last few days. You should have posted in an existing topic, instead of spamming up the forums some more. I get that you're disappointed and that's fine, but try to be civil toward Crytek instead of calling the game a fail (Which you said you like the game so you're either trying to start trouble or you're retarded. ) If I were Crytek and reading all of the hate on these boards, I'd be like **** you and leave it as is, bugs and all. No wonder they're gravitating towards consoles. If there's one thing we can take from all of this, it's that PC Gamers are rude, obnoxious, self important assholes.

Oh and by the way... Next time don't ask for opinions if you can't take the truth. And the MP works fine for me. Take some personal responsibility and maintain your network.

This is a great letter, I agree with everything you said man, in fact I think you were a bit too nice to them. I mean, the full list of awesome things that were taken away after crysis 1 would probably take two full pages.

i love it how some people still defend this game.. i mean i really Do WISH it was a good game as i am a huge fan since the release of farcry.. but with the condition of this game i cannot justify defending this anymore.. i mean i tried to be optimisitc after the demo, after the dx11 rumor and things like that.. i even accepted the multiplatforming of this title. but they have disappointed me in any way possible ( except the Airstomp which is really cool )

p.s. for an open letter, its a bit to offencive..

Dont you think that with "..hundred other threads biching about the SAME EXACT THINGS!" so immediately after the release that Crytek owes us a little bit more than what they have done so far? They could at least do something better to acknowledge what everyone here is feeling. There's no denying that things are screwed up! It makes it even worse when they had a demo out that is starting to look like it worked better than the actual final release with the all these server issues. Disgusting!!
