[edit, bump] This is STILL TRUE FOR VERSION 1.2 patch of Crysis 2 on PC.
--
Crytek take note for PC version 1.1 of Crysis 2:
Cannot play multiplayer games, period. Get kicked out of each and every server within 10 seconds of a game starting, no matter what server, what map, what machine or legal copy of the game I am using. Bought a couple of copies, installed on different machines, none work. Single player, no problem... Multiplayer, no way.
First, on a fresh install I get this the very first time I try to play multiplayer:
'Invalid Parameter' in server browser with a fresh install before even getting into the first multiplayer game (after fixing key-stick issue by going Single player then Multiplayer). Looks really bad when the first thing that happens out of the box after you freshly install the game to a new machine and patch to version 1.1 and then run the game for the first time, you're met with a bug. The words "not ready for release" come to mind.
More importantly, I bought a couple of copies of the 'Limited Edition' (haven't gotten to start a multiplayer game in 24 hours so haven't gotten far enough to get any of that either) and am unable to get ANY of them to play a multiplayer game on any machine.
I get disconnected with a "Connection to your multiplayer session has been lost. Please check network connectivity. Returning to Main Menu". This happens when I'm past the lobby in a game map, past the class choice, already spawned, playing on a PC with a fresh install.
Then I sometimes get "The connection to your opponent has been lost. You've been signed out.", sometimes followed by a "Signing out. Please wait." which takes me all the way out to the login screen.
Crysys 2 says I have a "NAT type: moderate".
The 'console' log says...
disconnect cause 11 ... msg "Nub destroyed."
When I get disconnected while in the Lobby waiting for game to start, the console says:
SessionDelete error 0
CryFixedArray removeAt() failed as i=-1 is out of range of curSize 14
Lobby EndTask 18 (18) error 17
Console also says somewhere UserGetPurchaseHistory error 28
another one says
CryFixedArray removeAt() failed as i=-1 is out of range of curSize 15
So, don't know what any of this means. All I know is I bought several copies of the game and they DON'T work, on different machines.
No Multiplayer at all.
I can log-in.
I can see servers.
I can join servers.
But I *ALWAYS* get disconnected.

Not good, Crytek. Disabled Microsoft antivirus. No firewall. Still not working. Seems it's Crytek's problem, not the machine.
