Hi Crysis II community,
I was playing CrysisI and Crysis Wars for over 3 years now, because those 2 games were the last games published one could play every day without getting bored, the last games which could be modded, which had dedicated servers, which had realistic graphics, where you needed skill to kill etc. etc., synoptically said 'kick ass **** #1'.
When CrysisII was released, my impression of it was very negative due to Crytek's new and overambitious mainstream policy(as a consequence of cooperating with E.A.), and the following worsening of a once superior game through 'making it mainstream', like the reduction of Nanosuit moveability, exaggerated graphics and the new, bad server system.
However, even though I do not want to pay a mainstream company my hard earnt bucks anymore, I feel like being forced to buy C2 now, because I just read, that finally the MOD SDK was released, which allows old Crysis modders like me to program new mods like real anti cheat systems, real ban systems and other really funny stuff, which is a hobby of mine.
But I just registered here, to ask you about facts and your opinions:

But I just registered here, to ask you about facts and your opinions:
- How big is the ratio of unranked servers? How many unofficial dedicated servers are running? The more ranked servers are online, the worse it is for modders, because ranked servers cannot run mods I guess.
- How many players are online a day, does it keep a long time until someone joins your server when you just set it up?
- Should I finally buy CrysisII?
