Is this a "known issue / glitch" ???

Post » Thu Nov 11, 2010 2:45 pm

I saw the mention of the "nano catalyst resetting" where users collected nano catalysts go missing when they close Crysis 2. To clarify.. are the "features they unlocked" going missing, or are the "points they've acquired" going missing?

What has happened to me is.. my "nano catalyst" points I've aquired have reset to "0", but features I've unlocked already I still have. I had (5) features of my Nano Suit 2 unlocked and I had a total of 2620 nano catalyst points, not sure exactly when it happened, but right after I killed some more aliens and collected some more points (or thought I collected), I opened up my Nano Suit 2 features unlocker and had "0" points, closed and opened again, still "0". So, I went and killed some more aliens and collected points, still "0". Stopped the game, re-loaded the check point, still "0". Reloaded an "earlier check point" previously already gone through, and unfortunately still "0".

Now, loosing the points is disappointing, but not being able to "collect anymore" is more than just disappointing. So, I wanted to be sure this is what the known issue is >> "Nano Catalyst points a reset to 0 and no more points collected from dead aliens are added to the Nano Catalyst" ???

If guessing there still is "no quick fix" available until Crytek releases a patch? Has anyone tried saving their game saves, uninstalling / reinstalling Crysis 2 and seeing if that fixed it?

----------------------------------

I also have these things happen... sometimes after I die and the "checkpoint reloads" .. my "crosshairs / scope recticles" are missing (not visible), as well as items in my hands like "C4 detonator", "grenades", etc.. even my guns were visible one time. Does not happen alot, but the times it did, I had to exit and relaunch the game to fix.

Also, I can't "detonate the C4" .. I'm not sure if I'm not pushing the correct button, or if it's a glitch, but I can collect C4, have it in my inventory, and plant it .. I just can't detonate it. What is the "default" button for detonating C4"? (I don't see a key under "combat" for mapping for C4 either, so I assumed it was the "fire" button?)

Also, I'm @ the "Madison Square" map where the Alien Pod Ship is flying around dropping pods, you're with the Marines killing them off, Pod Ship drops more, kill them, etc.. finally it gets to the point where the Alien Pod Ship is putting down some serious fire power on you, so I grab a "Jaw" missle launcher, it's loaded w/ 3 missles, but it won't fire! The "Jaw" was firing just fine until that point...

**Most Annoying thing in the entire game! Atleast to point I've gotten so far in the game, where you first meet up w/ the Marines after the flood and start fighting with the Aliens, once you get to the part the Marines start shouting the command "Move Up!, Go!" repeatedly and constantly keep shouting it out... almost to the point you can not hear anything else! Worst thing for me was, I died about 4 times and had to reload that checkpoint 4 times, it almost drove me nuts. Finally I just turned my dialog sound options down to 10% until I passed that point.

Anyway.. if that is the "same Nano Catalyst" issue, let me know please. If anyone else has experienced any of these other issues let me know that too.

I also just realized this game is "directX 9" after visiting here, I was just under the assumption it would be directX 10 / directX 11, but after seeing the graphics I knew they could'nt be dx11 and seeing the FPS I get while playing I was wondering how I get faster fps than I do in Crysis/Crysis Warhead, now I know! I was kind of hoping it would've had an x64 bit mode like previous editions too. Oh well, still looks good, but could be alot better.

Thanks!

HI, Yes I just noticed tonight while playing that I also had a zero in the nano catalyst place where I know that yesterday I had a few thousand there as well as about four of the nano suit features that I had bought with nano catalyst. Like you though the ones I had already purchased with the nano catalyst points were still there. I can't remember the name of the place I am at right now but I am supposed to be blowing something up in the end of a tunnel so i can go forward and I just killed a ton of those little crawly alien bugs and each time it said that i got 20 (or is it 40, dunno) catalyst points and then looked in the place where you can buy more features with them and that was still zero. I think that this was the first time although i thought that i had noticed it about four nights ago but when I looked later on that night I did have points in there. I sure hope that the Crytec team knows about this bug because there is really no point in continuing to play this game until I can get them as it is part of the game and I am sure that down the road in the game you will probably have to have some of those features to get by. Another thing too is that I don't think I got any of the stuff that I was supposed to get in the LE version of the game. I put all the right numbers and letters in the correct places several times and nothing happened. I think I will be making some phone calls tomorrow to see if anything can be done about either of those two things that are going on with my game too.
