Crytek and community support

Post » Mon Dec 03, 2012 11:59 pm

So, do you guys think Crytek have learned their lesson from Crysis 2 and the absolutely appauling communication and support for that game, or do you think they wil maintain their arrogant silence and ignore the bugs just as before, at least for us console gamers?

I for one think they are in dire need of a proper Community Manager and it staggers me they don't have one who communicates with the fan base through these forums, and the mods do not count as communicating.

Crytek, if you ever read this, head to the Rocksteady forums for Arkham City and you could learn an important lesson in how to treat your fans. They have a 6 million selling game for a reason. Just saying.

Have Crytek forever tarnished their reputation with you, or will you forgive all if they actually start communicating, and properly support Crysis 3?

Cevat Yerli said that C2 had many bugs, and that it won't happen in the future.

Ah well that's alright then.

Except this is the same guy who said:

Crysis 2 had only 3, count 'em 3, bugs on release
Crysis 2 would never drop below 30 fps on either console, er right.
Crysis 2 would have the best AI of any game ever which, if he was aiming for dumbass aliens, he got spot on.
Crysis could never be done on consoles (fair enough it's a positive, but what he really mean't was Cry Engine 2 was very badly optimised)

Take what he says with a pinch of salt if I were you.

Well, i did not forget what they did to us in the past. (here we go again)
Issues are in every game, and will always be in every game, that is not my biggest problem.
But they could've at the very least addressed the issues, or maybe even simply said "we do not have the means or are not willing to fix the issues, our apologies". This still bugs me, and i certainly hope they learned their lesson.

If they give support to the game, and keep supporting it till the end (NOT talking about a patch, but keeping us UP TO DATE and be OPEN and FAIR to us) then i'll forget about anything they did in the last year.

Go Crytek, emerge to victory this time!!

1) all publisher that are under the wing of EA are for me tarnished!
2) all publisher that make games on multi-platform with a console core, will be a fail on pc. It will work and it will be playable, but it lacks alot of fine-tuning due to the console being the basis
3) Crysis 3 will be Directx11 from the start, which is a big plus compaired to part 2,BUT..... due to the consoles, this game will never be a big open world like part 1 and 1,5. The HW restrictions of the console will have a large influence on the level design, and the fact that they will port this to the pc, we on the pc will again get a stupid closed up world. Of course the world will be a bitt bigger then part 2, but never like the morther of crysis, namely part 1
4) and the last reason - and for me the reason to not buy this game - is the mandatory matter of origin. I would love to again give my heard earn money to crytek, but not to ea and their sad origin.

You expect the mods or admin on these forum to do more then you can hope for. You should be glad if they even read here and leave a comment or 2. EA owns crytek and therefor also makes the strategy.
Far Cry 3 is where you should be really add if you want to play on a island that is big and offers you more then 1 route

Maybe you should play STALKER looks like you might like it, it's great.
And maybe that might keep you busy so you don't keep stating the same thing on the forums over and over again.

FYI EA doens't own crytek. Crytek is in their EA partners program and i guess they play a large role in financing the development so they have say in how its developed and in release dates.

DICE IS owned by EA so they made origin mandatory. If crysis 3 will have mandatory origin crap that probably just means EA pressured crytek to use it by threating their financies cause i cant imagine crytek wants mandatory origin since so many people are against it and it will cost them more sales then it will give them

Yet there is only one with all the cash and power, EA.
I already got to many EA titles in my collection right now, i just wish even EA would have more dedication for Games than money.

Also you guys forgot that Crysis 2 was Crytek's first "mainstream" game, Far Cry evolved from a tech demo and graphics engine, and the primary focus of Crysis was the graphics. When they made Crysis 2 they wanted the majority crowd to play it except they weren't so good at that and so it kinda failed. Not to mention it was their first console game.
