Man i waited for this game for 4 years and i have to say what a letdown,Graphics svck ,even with my gtx 580 ,i7-860 cpu and 8 gb of 1333mhz of ram.I am playing on a 27" asus ve278q monitor.Like most of us here i got wind of this game being leaked and decided to wait for the relese and buy it as it was supposed to be well worth the wait.Pffffffffffffff.............If i had my time back i would have robbed it and saved my $70.I paid over $600 for this gtx 580 with dx 11 to play crysis 2 with dx 11 and where is it?

Started off when i was 10 years old playing atari and eventually moved to pc gaming as the years went by and have spent thousands and thousands of dollars to be able to play pc games pretty much maxed out,But more and more it seems like the games for pc are most always a letdown .
Think i will sell off the pc gear and go buy a ps3 or a xbox.

Cervat should hang his head in shame.

I don't have to say it you already said it for me. Except don't get a console yet wait for the next gen because these machines we have now, they're not even capable of giving you what you want.

At the same time though if there is no real progress being made why waste money on new games you probably got a games library already so use it.

only a single word to op....AGREED!lol

How could you NOT be disappointed after spending $600 on a GPU. Totally not worth it...

Dito, but I only spent $495 for my GTX 580. Very disappointed in the visuals. I can't believe that DX11 is going to make that much if a difference.

If you read ANYTHING you would have realized this game was NOT going to be as demanding as the first one. Reason one, the CE3 is MUCH more optimized, and it takes place in a city. Even once they patch it a single 5870 will eat this game up.

I use a 580 myself and its pretty beast. The issue is that this game doesn't have dx11 yet. But hell I can't even play the multiplayer because the key codes are all screwed up. To be honest I thought the graphics on the demo were just fine. I wasn't in any one spot long enough to pay attention to the detail though.

i can play this game maxed out on a gtx460. i was going to sli it but there is really no need the lowest FPS i saw was 35 and been playing all day. if they do go DX11 i might have to sli. but from what i here this game svcks with sli or xfire.....

Flooding a game with Post Precessing effects, an 8 year old API, Low Rez Textures and Bloom does not make a game well optimized.

Game companies have sold out to consoles. I read a few years back that they had sold over 20 million PS3s. Shortly after that games that would be released days earlier on PC than console started being released first for console so they had to dumb down the graphics & the map sizes. The people that don't want their kids to have decent game expeirience buy the consoles because they are cheap & nieve. Anyone that sees & hears my PC are blowen away. My PC is old & out dated but it still has more to offer than a console. I will never bend. The graphics card companies should be kicking the game companies in the ass because them selling out causes weak people to switch to console. How many cards will they sell if everybody desided to go with the status quoe & have cheap ass games with tiny maps & 4v4 or 6v6. I'm staying the course, I love games like Battlefield 2 with 12v12 or more because I'm not a sell out. I might get a PS3 to watch blueray but my computer dose that better to.

That's not what people are complaining about. Lack of DX10/11. Poor textures, Poor graphics, multigpu bugs, etc. That's what people are complaining about.

Ya seriously OP, it's ridiculous. I have a I5 2500K, 8gb of 1600mhz ram and SLI 560 Ti. Crysis 2 in 3D in 1080P on extreme settings gives me 60FPS and it's only utilizing 30% of my 2nd card. I could probably run it on one card just as good, it's really pathetic. At least Metro 2033 gives me computer a workout. Wheres BF3?
