I'm afraid PC gamer's will probably have to learn to live with pay2play dedicated servers.

PC gamers are used to being able to run their own servers, mod games and create and play new levels without having to pay for the privilege, but the cost of developing AAA games is now so high that gaming companies demand the ability to monetize their products as much as possible, so gradually these features are either being removed completely or replaced with commercial alternatives.

There will still be a few companies that hold out to the ideals that made PC gaming great but baring a collapse in the console market (and while I won't completely rule that out right now due to the spiralling cost of game development, I think it's unlikely in the short term) these kind of limitations on PC versions will become nearly ubiquitous.

i understand ur post.. and thats the reason why i say.. ok bring dlcs.. for high high first class maps.. i pay 30 euro for an Game that development cost more than 100x then an game in the 90′s.

But otherwise.. u should see that on the other hand.. more people buy games.. so its a little bit like a reletivation.

I would say it is a good idea to deliver special content for money.. some special maps, maybe modi or skins and other customisation. But ALSO deliever and support something like a mod/map community.
Sure u want get that much money with the dlcs.. but u have been fair and get a bigger community.. and Developer like Blizzard prof that it is possible to gain that way profit back (more happy customer.. more possible crysis 3 owners ).

I'm surprised this game doesn't even have LAN, let alone private Dedicated servers... I guess console players can't bring their consoles (and TV's) to one guy's house and have a LAN party so they didn't bother adding it in altogether >.< Lame!

Im in!

SIGNED ! against cheaters with admins who can kick thier asses of the servers !

Especially after they said "Dedicated servers for PC confirmed". That's almost false advertising.
I second that, I want to host my own dedicated server, simple solution to all problems is to make it unranked.
This is simply the best way to secure your own game of hackers.

Agreed

Sign!

Count me in also.

Is it possible to sign multiple times? If so, put me down as many times as possible.

WTF, it's P2P or hosted dedicated servers, i'm glad it's dedicated even if hosted, stop crying.

If you want to host your own MP session, go together with some ppl and rent a server!

Rent a BUG? No thanks!

What if you don't plan on playing MP 24/7? before spouting nonsense try to at least produce a respectable justification. I'm not asking that they release the dedicated server files (cause i know that the possibility is very low) but we can't even host a listen server! Is that too much to ask? paying around 60$ for game isn't enough to earn us the right to play multiplayer games as we, the buyers, see fit?

I'm in too!

Would love this as well.

It would be pretty nice to see a Crysis 1 feature that was removed from Crysis 2 for some reason, reinstated into Crysis 2 again as it was a precedent strong point in Crysis 1.

COUNT ME IN
CRYSIS 2 IS THE BEST GAME AND IF THIS OWN MP SESSIONS WERE TO HAPPEN
I WOULD CRY IN ENJOYMENT !
