Game does look good, and so far it's pretty fun aside from the fact it's not finished...

I don't think it's the lack of directX11, or the multi platform support that has PC gammers tweeked. They say DX11 all day but there is reason behind it.

PC gamers (I being one of them) Are tired of getting lied to, getting beta games at full price, then having the actual finished game show up later with all the fixes for less cash because it's now a "Old" game.

Bio-shock=no support for Creative labs cards.. still... after years...
FFXIV came out, un finished... they have yet to charge any one the montly subscription fee because they feel the game isn't done.. didn't have a problem taking the money and releasing it in the first place but I will comend them for not charging people the monthly to keep them on.
Splinter Cell Convition: Probably the best Co-Op I have played, really enjoyed it.. but the match making is piss poor and never got fixed... res setting can cause menus to be in accessable, and a few other glitches.

The point is we are all tired of being lied to and charged full price to beta test games for companies... didn't people used to get paid to beta test? Cars have a lemon law, if your food sux then usually they will take it off the bill, video games seam to be the one place where the manufacture can just laugh at you once you purchase it because all sales are final and there is no acountability besides that they might not buy in the future. A company like EA that publishes so many different Dev's work isn't concerned so much about this, because they know sooner or later there is going to be another game you want from a different Dev and they are back in the money.

This could be a great game, I loved the first one and this one is pretty sweet too but it just needs to be finished.. and if they tune it for a console then they need to tune it for the PC as well. Crytek... I'm really dissapointed but I'm keeping in mind it could be out of your hands and a call made by EA... you have a large following and look at all these people even with the problems that still praise your work, do them, do all of us right and fix/finish the game. People want DX11 because it was in the demo and stated to be in the game, you could shut a lot of that up by posting on your site here a update or at least that you are working on it. A little comunication go's a long way. Leaving that off the "known issues" as well as lot's of other "knowns" shows you don't really care what the consumers feed back is and if we are happy with the product or not. If that's not the intent break the silence and calm the masses.

I cancled my pre-order, in one last act of faith after hearing there was a launch day patch, I purchased the game. You now have my money as well, use it to fix the game and save your rep.

I must recognize it: this time, contrary to Crysis 1, they have produced one of the best looking games with minimal impact on performance. The game runs beautifully, high framerates with amazing graphics. I definitely consider Crysis 2 one of the best games of this year. I have preordered my limited edition, today the game has arrived. After I started to play the game, the first thing that popped up in my head was:"WOW o_O".

I don't need DirectX 11, I'm not disappointed for the lack of DirectX 11 (*). The only thing I want are games that runs "beautifully". And Crysis 2 surely has got the point. Tessellation is great, but seems to be hard to implement properly these days, and it can easily kill performance without giving back any tangible results (look, for example, at Dragon Age II: all that power required for minimal visual impacts. That game runs like s**t on a GTX 580 at 1920x1200.)

I don't need DirectX 11 games that have bad graphics, still they require SLI systems because they're badly optimized / engineered. I want games that look amazing and runs with human hardware. I have a GTX 580 and the game runs like it is supposed to do: 60 fps.

Thank you Crytek, I'm really happy for my purchase.

(*) Don't take me wrong. If you think DirectX 11 is the thing that really matters for "good graphics", you're wrong. Crysis 2 is an amazing game because it let you play NOW. If you're on a single headed machine and you are required to own more than a GTX 580, there is something wrong with the game, remember. In fact, many games require SLI configurations and still are worse than Crysis 2, graphically speaking.

"Tessellation is great" Tessellation on DX 9 ??? How much crytek or e.a. pay tu you? The GAME is not playeble because its not finished.

All I'm wondering is how much did you people who speak well of what Crytek have accomplished get payed?

I mean come on... It's a fiasco on every level. I couldn't care less about dx11, but I do care about getting a product that works when I've payed for it. This has so many bugs and obvious flaws that I'm amazed that anybody could speak well of it.

Don't get me wrong. I'm enjoying the multiplayer bit... when it works, which isn't often. But this game has nothing in common with Crysis 1 other than the name, and that's quite sad.

I understand that Crytek is a business, and businesses exist to make money. Therefore if they have to piss off a sh*tload of people in order to accomodate the needs(wants) of an even larger group of people, then they will... without flinching. And that's what's happened here.

Crytek's reputation is in ruins... but I guess it's ok... as long as you made a few bucks. Personally I would've planned long-term, especially since Crysis is supposed to be a trilogy.

They'll no doubt fix it with a few patches soon enough so... oh well, I guess we just have to wait.
