Crysis Wars - Steam Version - Won't Connect

Post » Wed May 06, 2009 10:23 pm

Recently I bought the maximum edition with all the current Crysis games.
I would like a official response to this from someone from the Crytek team or a moderator here just one of you press the reply button and tell me how was the official way of setting up Crysis wars? Do you use the Crysis Warhead code or something.

Some people have the same issue. they had to go back to the stroe and change the package for a new one. in one case the store said, that the key was printed wrongly...

I would suggest installing warhead just incase that is what is causing it.

Hey KillSpammer,

Who have you contacted? EA or Crytek support?

This is actually a fairly common question, one that i'm working on getting a full list of resolutions for. Unfortunately with the timing of Christmas holidays, it puts a stall on getting the information collated.

Let us know if you find out the answer in the mean time but hopefully i can get a list of methods for the different versions of Crysis and associated keys soon.

I'm having the same issue with my new Steam purchase. Bought the Maximum Edition for $10 on the sale and Crysis Wars will not work. Every time I go to join a server it says my CD key is not valid and will not let me join the servers.

OK EA fixed me up. You can see the story here on Steam forums:

Ah ok, so the issue appears to relate to the latest Steam client? At least there's the alternative of obtaining the game via EA Download Manager. Hopefully it's fixed soon though.

Recently purchased the whole crysis set off steam so I can play mechwarrior living legends. I origionally tried to log into the mwll multiplayer which failed, then I though mabie I should try the vanillia multiplayer to see if its a steam/cw problem an not a mwll problem. Seems is a steam/cw problem.

Ive made an account ingame (not through the mod, through the vanilla game) and an acc with gamespy.

Just keeps saying 'Connection to server failed' with both acc's - and its not my firewalls, cause both comodo and windows (the only 2 I have) have been off since I installed the game and have yet to be turned back on.

Whats going on here?

/merged with existing topic, please see the previous replies in this thread.

I've set this up as a sticky temporarily until we can sort out the issue properly.

I'm having the same issue. sent Steam a message about it. no reply yet. This is pretty lame. I don't want to have to keep up with another game key. That's why i buy my games on Steam. Steam needs to fix this problem or just refund me.
