I don't know of a screenshot bind, but either get FRAPS and use that to take screenies (you can select your own keybind). Or you can use STEAM, which has screenshotting on F12. Even if you didnt buy the game through steam you can add it to steam via shortcut and use f12, I think!

With the Steam-Version, you can use the Steamoverlay, which offers such a feature on its own (and works in every game, even non-steam-games like Minecraft). So, if you use the steamversion or have steam, add Crysis 2 to the list of non-steam-games, start the game via steam and use the overlay. The default-key is F12, but that can be changed to any key you want.
For the default version without using Steam in any way... I have no idea. I don't think it's even possible as there is nothing like that in the control-options. Of course, you could use the print-key but that only stores one screenshot and you need to add it to paint or something like that and safe it later. Not really suggested.
Or you use a third-party-program - which in the end just ends up doing the same as the Steamoverlay...

you can download a trial version of FRAPS which allows you to take screenshots... you can also take videos of gameplay but only for 30 seconds (if i remember correctly). If you want tthe video feature to have unlimited time you can buy the software by registering on the site.

Heres a link for the trial downlaod: http://www.fraps.com/download.php

the question is, can we get hackers banned with screenshots? how do we screenshot them while moving at 200km/second, flying, invisible always, shooting unlimited ammo or whatever? you have to see that ingame... i dont see the point of screenshots, better get a report button.

PD: to all cheaters, i hope you die by the most painful way, by cancer+aids if possible

You can also do it the old school way and just hit "PrtScrn" which saves a screenshot of w/e is currently showing on your monitor to your clipboard, and then paste it into MS Paint or something. for example: http://oi56.tinypic.com/34eazyu.jpg

But that's a pretty ghetto way of doing it. Most modern games will automatically save any screenshots by pressing F12, I would imagine the retail version of Crysis2 would be the same. I have the Steam version though so don't quote me on that.
