Cell, I'll never understand why you keep asking for official answers you're obviously never going to get.

If this is true, you can't blame them.. people will probably boost in ranked, if it's in unranked as well I'll be disappointed..

Look at the bright side, you can have some social time while waiting.. even tho it's the PC..

As long as the screen isn't Black & White, I'll be happy =)

Honestly, a lobby system won't encourage the pirates to stop playing the leak. They're not going to throw away their servers for a bunch of bugfixes with a lobby system :/

There is an official post about dedis for PC, they are there. I do believe that people have a dedicated server thingy in the leak as well. So I am pretty sure they are there :D

LMAO, Crytek fails again.

Next we will hear that the Crysis 2 Demo doesnt allow Dedicated Servers or DX11 use at all. ^-^

For all you people saying there aren't dedicated servers, there are.

But, the demo version doesn't use them. It has a lobby system, according to Cell.

Thank god. I hate games that allow you to buy upgrades and crap along those lines but give you no time between games to do so. Black ops was a prime example of that annoyance, since as a PC gamer you can't buy contracts or anything unless you leave every other game.

Thanks crytek.

As for the bandwagoning 'zomg lazy', oh just shut up for once. This was a good thing. I bet the guys who will be complaining about waiting 20s between games are also the people calling console players 'ADD console kiddies', so hypocritical.

Who said it wasn't going to be in game. We don't know that, what a demo is, is usually a representation of the final game. The thing I did say was I'm hoping it's Crytek just been lazy and not removing the lobby for the demo.

@The Comfy Chair you'll soon get frustrated when there's 5 of you in a server all say waiting in a lobby until another player joins. You sit there wasting half you gaming time waiting, waiting waiting.

If you're waiting for that long for someone to join for a 9v9 game, the game is pretty much dead. How often do you join servers with only 5 people in them out of a maximum of 18 in other games?

It's a non issue.

also, inb4 'zomg play with friends!' = unranked server. Simples.

FFS Crytek pull your fingers out and get your heads back in the game. Lobby systems should stay with consoles and have no place in PC gaming.

You keep on telling us you listen to us and that you respect the PC community, but you keep on **** all over us.

why can people only complain. You dont even know if things are going to be that way.
even IF there are going to be lobbys and stuff be happy that crytek created the game anyway. And allso check the demo and i think crytek will tell you more things about the lobbys. Have patience and wait for more info. Yust becouse the console have lobby on demo doesn't mean that that it will have lobbys later.

(sry for my eng)

If its P2P I will **** Steal other people's disks and snap em in two. I'm serious.

Where the hell did you get that info from?????
I dont think it will be p2p on crysis 2. Dont you think it should be written somewhere?
If it is written somewhere then it is well hidden.

That only applies to something you get for free. We pay for the game, we don't have to be thankful they "even made it".

And the multiplayer becomes useless if you can only find 11 people to play with, since you won't fill the player quota for both teams, and therefore won't be able to enter the match.

...gameservers.com have preordered value of a max 16 slots. this is strange as it is a clear distinction to have over 12 slots, and usually that company don't make guesses, they only publish after getting valid info. i suspect crytek are possibly giving pc gamers alittle space extra?

Yeah, we're getting 8v8 max, but the Lobby means we need at least 6 people per team.

6 people per team, before a round can start?! if that is true that stinks and will ruin most games starting. it will end up like black ops, matches need to be able to start on none or at least a few only..

I suppose 3 minimum per team is more acceptable. Still annoying, but more acceptable than a 6 minimum.
