that I want my $60 back. The End.


No, I did not just play 2 minutes and come to this conclusion.
No, I did not just get one-shotted by a Scar after unloading a clip and come to this conclusion.
No, I did not get screwed over by the constant connection issues and come to this conclusion.

All the repetitive bugs and issues that everyone is complaining about in the Multiplayer I've dealt with with great patience. My patience broke when I reached rank 39 and unlocked the Electromagnetic Material Rifle. Sounds awesome right? Well it is awesome except for the fact that IT IS COMPLETELY USELESS.
I'm so tired of all these first-person shooters making a collection of great looking weapons only to have that one is worth really using. Half the problem is probably from connection issues but here's my point.

The thing shoots like a **** tank but that's all it has to show because it still takes 2-3 hits just to kill someone. I've run up behind someone who was idle who had no armor on to find that a shot straight through his chest does nothing. Don't come in here trolling saying that "Oh you probably svck at sniping!" or "I killed someone in one hit you just svck!" because I've done my time with this game and know how to play.

I've sniped in almost all FPS's, CoD, Halo, Unreal, Bioshock, Fear, Quake, etc. Even in this game I use the first sniper a lot. But that's meant to be a 2 hit kill sniper. I don't believe the M20 14 Gauss should be because if it is meant to be a 2 hit sniper might as well make that **** a rank 1 unlock as well. While you're at it make every **** gun rank one and have everyone just play without ranks because it's pointless to work towards something as useless as a paperweight.

You know what, **** that. Just take all the guns away, make one category called "This is all you need" and put the Scar under it because I've seen the Scar do everything better than any gun in-game. It one-shots people and snipes people better than anything in game making the auto-shotgun, pump shotgun, snipers, grendel, scarab, pistols, heavy weapons, EVERYTHING obsolete.

I know I won't get my $60 back and I know that this game hasn't even been out for a week but **** christ what a waste. Even when they do release a patch I highly doubt they will fix it.

The point of my rant is that ranking up for the new weapons is pointless. They're obsolete. Worthless. Paperweights. If you're playing to unlock them, don't. They'd be fun if they actually did anything other than look pretty.

So people of Crytek, Hear me out. FIX YOUR GOD DAMN WEAPONS! IF IT'S RANK 39 IT SHOULD BE WORTH RANKING UP FOR!

I hear Kinectimals is pretty awesome, if you get your $60 back you should check that out...

Sure, if they do I damn well will. I don't even have a kinect but I bet petting the cd and feeding it food is better than the massive issues with this game.

Quite a Rant, Props for the dedication from a fellow ranter.... But i digress...

I'd like to add. What precisely is the **** point in forcing people to grind for access to the other game modes, after level 10, when you can no longer enter the Lower-Level only games you should have access to all the other game modes.... and once again i'm bringing it up, but AVP had 2 of its best game modes accessable from the start - Alien Hunt and Predator Hunt (And I'd be playing them right now if you could actually find a game without waiting up to half an hour for enough people).....

Haven't played AvP. Want to but haven't gotten around to it. and I completely agree. There is no point. The whole purpose of the grind is they want you all hyped up for it. They want you to keep playing. So you do only the find that you've been rick rolled and not you're left with nothing but bitter anger and rage.

AVP Story modes and Multiplayer worked fine straight of the shelf, there was some small balance patches with the Predator in multiplayer, to do with the disc/boomerang being giving a longer cool down, but for a game that supported up to 18 players on 3 teams with races that had distinct abilities and play styles there wasn't anything close to the level of bugginess report for Crysis... it really is a shame that so few people play it any more... and i'd be happy to deal with latency issues and over-powered weapons if i could actually get a multiplayer game to last longer than 2 minutes without a [MIGRATING SESSION...] happening and booting me into my own game.....

Spot on, I got to level 35 and i'm giving up now. I can't take it, this game is just so frustrating. I'll probably come back when they fix all the issues, until then. Goodbye Crysis 2, back to Super Street Fighter 4 I suppose.

And as for the excuses i keep hearing that working with a new engine on the console we should EXPECT "some" bugs.... Look at Killor117's list..... for "SOME" bugs its a LONG **** LIST.... When ID software and Bethesda bring out Rage on the ID engine, the first time that will have been used on console, i seriously doubt there will this absoloute myriad of issues... don't get me wrong i'm expecting a few bugs.... just not a list some long someone has to conitnue compiling new examples into every day just so the dev team can keep up with it.... I never paid to be a beta tester on an off the shelt console game before....

Yeah I played the original for awhile way back. I tried a demo out on pc also and liked the whole idea of it. I did hear there was balancing issues.

Doesn't that **** svck? Should've just let us beta the whole damn game before releasing maybe it wouldn't have this many problems.

That game was fun but yeah the matchmaking svcked ass.

yeah I've seen the long ass list. It's really pathetic. and "first time" is no excuse. That just means they should've worked 10x harder. Just because it's their first time doesn't mean they can half ass this ****. Can't wait for Rage looks so awesome. I feel they just threw this slop together and slapped crysis on it to make it sell. I do love the game and have high hopes for it but this god awful start is giving them bad rep.

On an added note, the melee in this game is **** absurd. If I wanted to punch people I'd play a **** fighting game. FPS doesn't stand for "Yo I'm gonna punch you with my **** fists till you die" it's First-Person God Damn SHOOTER! Emphasis on SHOOTER! If anything melee should only be available under certain circumstances like you have absolutely no ammo in any guns or you've run out of ammo on your clip and need to reload. I don't know something. Yeah, Ok you've got a suit that makes you punch boulders harder and faster than Chris Redfield but you're punches should not be equivalent to a god damn sniper shot.

Just like spray and pray, you can spin a circle spamming melee and kill someone. The only difference is there's no counter to Melee. You can melee as fast as a Scar shoots and kill just as efficiently. Even when someone has armor on it only takes 2 melee hits while a weapon takes a whole **** clip(unless you have a scar then 2 shots, and if you're lucky half a clip with any other gun). Since you lunge with your melees, trying to back up or jump or do anything is pointless. And meleeing back is only a hopeless effort as they've already got the first hit off.

Might as well add combos and air combos, and if you're energy is full and you press LT next to 1-2 other teammates you all do a god damn Orbital Strike from your **** hands.

Crytek, easy fix. Completely remove melee which I know you won't, or add a longer delay in between attacks so people actually have enough time to react and counter it.

It's fair enough to shoot someone getting them to considerably low health them finish them with a melee, but playing only to have someone run circles around you spamming melee killing you in 2 hits is just flat out stupid.

For a game that has been out for 3 days and not even had a chance for a patch yet are you sure you want to sell the game? Hmmmmm

For a game that has been out for 3 days and not even had a chance for a patch yet are you sure you want to sell the game? Hmmmmmmultiply that number by 2 and you have the right number moron. My bad, you're probably too dumb for that so let me do it for you

3x2=6 got it? If you still don't understand then multiplying 3 by 2 is like adding two 3's together thus 3x2. So 3+3=6. If you need more math lessons I've available for tutoring Mon-Fri from 10am-12pm for $100 an hour. For you though I'll have to make it $200 since I'll have to put more effort into teaching such a dumb ****.

Read my very first post before you go talking **** about "oh the games only been out so and so days blah blah blah" god damn troll

Is this a rant just about 1 sniper? That's a pretty long rant dude. To be frank in this game I have no qualms in saying your issue is probably that you're sniping. There is only 1 map so far I've played that it even makes sense to look at a sniper rifle, the long ruins one. Everything else is designed for the automatic/shotgun/SMG weapons.

I'm sorry you're disappointed with the game but you're complaining a sniper rifle designed to drop an enemy's suit power doesn't kill anyone on maps where battles are usually fought on the vertical in small buildings with multiple staircases. I've seen some of your other threads and some of them have a point. This one doesn't.

If you had read the bottom you'd see that I mentioned the post being about how absurdly stupid it is to make a weapon such a high rank yet be more useless than Barrack Obama. Yeah, I talked mostly about the sniper but that's because that was my highest expectation for this awful start of a multiplayer. I was praying that it'd at least be useful so that I could enjoy myself. But no, it's unpolished and useless. And you probably don't snipe much so you don't know that a lot of maps are good for snipers too. City Hall, Sanctuary, the one you're talking about is Lighthouse, Wall Street, Downed Bird, and can't remember the last one, all good for sniping too. The only ones really are the CQC maps such as Terminal and Impact.

Not even just the sniper either. All the weapons rank 13 and up are pretty much useless. The Grendel, a nice 3 round burst gun but only really useful for mid-long range fights. Scarab is like the Scar but weaker thus not killing fast enough. Pump Shotgun is useless because the delay between shots will get you killed unless you're lucky or jump around like a monkey. The SMG's are semi-decent but fall in long range. The L-Tag is for **** and giggles and the one after that forget the name, shoots like a gatling gun but the range is only short range so don't even try mid-long range with it. The Scar is the only gun in game with all around purpose. You can hip fire close range and kill faster than any shotguns, You can put more damage down than both SMG's in close to mid-range, You can kill faster than the LMG and other Assault Rifles, and you can snipe Snipers across the map with the Scar. If the Scar is the gun that gets any job done fast and efficiently what's the purpose of the other 9 other primary weapons and 4 secondary weapons.

And don't even get me started on the secondary weapons. MY **** GOD! /wrists

Well I'm sorry you feel that way but I can't do anything about it.

Well I'm sorry you feel that way but I can't do anything about it.
Then don't say a god damn thing. It's people like you who'll destroy this world with your arrogance. If you have no valid reason to agree or counter my argument then **** come and go without a word.

Hahaha. What are you some kind of super aggressive forum soldier? It is actually possible to have a discussion without it becoming an argument you know. Or in this case perhaps not.

"Well I'm sorry you feel that way but I can't do anything about it."

This serves no purpose what so ever. I don't care if your sorry because you're mostly like not and obviously you can't do **** because you're just like the rest of us on this forum, a player. You're not a dev, you can't fix the game. Your so called "discussion" has no input what so ever. You told me that my main problem is because I'm sniping. If that's the reason behind such a high ranked weapon with a scaling of almost max damage failing to provide any kind of use then well **** dude, might as well not put a sniper in the game at all right? "Well snipers are tactical specialists who sit back and support his main forces." This game is so fast pace that there is no team to support. So instead of wasting time and memory creating such weapons why not make them useful for fast pace combat. And no, the reflex and assault scope don't help one bit.
