Campaign Bugs & Achievement Glitches

» Fri Dec 09, 2011 7:15 am

I'm a FarCry (1) and Crysis fan from day one. I love all three of the games, but I'm missing support for Crysis 2.

So I just replayed the Crysis 2 campaign alright, and had to realize that the ridiculously looking "stucking enemies" bug still hasn't been fixed yet.

With all the effort on so many levels that has been put into this game, this a a real bummer. How can Mr. C. Yerli have promoted this to be the best A.I. ever in a game, when enemies are constantly blocking each other, keep walking into walls, and Ceph sometimes look like they are chasing their own tails, oh, I mean their tentacles. If it wouldn't seriously harm the campaing experience, it would actually be funny. Seriously, it hurts because I really love the games.

I believe the issue mentioned above is one which the fixing of could prove very difficult, none the less it should be tried, and it would be really nice if we would be informed if it is, or has been tried, or if it will ever happen at all.

Also I believe that it is still not known if there is a workaround for the "Dedication" achievement glitch if it already should have accured by re-booting the suit befor the first half year; or if a patch is being planned; the same goes for "Tooled Up" which supposedly glitches if one gets disconnected after a weapon unlocking promotion while in an active match.

Seriously Crytek, you are one of my favorite game developers up until now, please don't let me and the other fans down, and at least fix the achievement issues, which can surely be done without too much effort. This is really the least you guys could do for your Xbox 360 community.

Add:
I'm very pleased to see that Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli is a humble man and is admitting that they could have done better with Crysis 2, especially on bug fixing. That keeps me faithful a little, at least for future titles. I'm sure he wasn't adressing the "stucking enemies" bug in campaign here, though; as it is still in effect. http://l.gamespot.com/pq3Ywo Link provided by https://secure.gamesas.com/Kumbhakarna.

I'm playing Crysis 2 on PS3. I love it, my favorite game of all time, it even puts the oh so critically acclaimed first Crysis to shame in my opinion.
I never had a trophy (PS3's counterpart to achievements) glitch on me yet I haven't unlocked dedication like countless other players. Maybe it has got something to do with the 1.04 patch? Who knows? Rebooting your suit is not the cause of this problem.
While I'd like to see a patch for Crysis 2 I think Crytek is done supporting it. With Battlefield 3 right on the doorstep and MW3 coming out soon, Crysis 2's multiplayer days are pretty much numbered

And that makes me very sad :'(

Oh yes friend, I'm afraid you're right, at least for PS3 players of the game it should get very hard to get enough players together, due to least sold units. Thanks for the note on "Dedicated" I myself haven't had anyone glitch now, but I'm aware that it could happen.

Cheers!

PS3 community is declining day by day. Yesterday I noticed playing against the French instead of playing against Germans, this means a lot of German players stopped playing this masterpiece, this saddens me

It's not that there are that many matches on Xbox either at certain day times. Just played some matches around 11PM CET, Couldn't have been more than two matches going on simultaniously. Lucky for me I AM in Germany, so most matches are on in my time zone from "noon to moon".

Also I just noticed that in campain, in the later levels you have like a distorting grain pattern running down the screen. Doesn't seem to be on purpose, and doesn't make the game look any better.

Hey xP3AC3MAK3Rx,

Sorry for missing your messages, we simply didn't see them rather than ignoring them - luckily your PM got my attention

As far was solutions go however, this issue is closely tied to a number of other reports of people having problems with trophys and unlocks. This has of course been raised internally, and created some discussion between develop and publisher, in addition to investigation into the matter.

At this time I could not tell what will happen though, I will continue to talk to people internally and remind everyone that the community needs an answer, but until the matter is settled there isn't anything further I can tell you at this time. Keep an eye out for updates in the future though, as they'll be posted as soon as there is news.

Thank You Tom for taking the time.

I hope you guys can sort this out with EA, after all I don't have any doubt that it is in both the developer's and the community's interest to have an overall well functioning game. IMO the most important thing would be to resolve the A.I. and graphical issues in campaingn, as well as the overturned music issue in MP, but as I believe fixing the achievement and trophy issues is probably easier. Of course for many achievement and trophy hunters (wasn't there a different term? Anyway

this is such a red flag.

It's great that you file the updates in the main hard drive in the game's folder, that way you can see the number of updates issued, and more importantly it saves cache volume!

Have a nice day, Sir!

Just wanted to bump this up over all the annoying fix_ps3_trophies' threads and didn't want it to get lost because of them. I am eager to hear some news on the outcome.

I wish I could believe that there will be a future patch... maybe after they release their next game they might have a bit more time? Or maybe when they are programming Crysis 3 and they try to fix the problems...
