Hi guys,

Well firstly, I have an idea. But I really think this idea needs more implementation to it. Recently, there's been alot of negativity surrounding the forum. It's not good for people who are visiting and such, so I thought of this idea. And it may need some approval from the community managers. So let me hit it:

A community survey. I know it sounds silly, but alot of people don't really like the MP of this game, Why don't you guys place a survey onto this site, Base it around the current affairs of what the community is arguing about, which is ATM the MP. Base it around questions which are currently outstanding. e.g;

"Do you like the idea of 6 vs 6 MP? Please choose either yes, no or not sure. After that, please use the box below and explain why you chose yes, no or not sure (Be detailed as possible)."

A question like that would be great, adding more outstanding questions would be even better. Perhaps my question aren't great, but you know where I'm coming from.

If you guys could come up with more questions, I'd appreciate it.

But getting back to the matter at hand, a survey would benefit us who have views on the multiplayer. I think those at Crytek UK need to read what we think about the current state of MP. If they don't read this, then I can assume that a few of us we'll be doomed. Gathering alot of information via an online survey would really help them to understand why the MP doesn't work for us. So they can shape the MP in their way, but with our feedback. Sending this sort of information to someone who manages the MP and makes the decisions would be even better.

This idea I thought up is very raw, and needs to improve. I would appreciate the community managers to reply to this, if they have alternative methods of sending feedback to Crytek UK, then I'd be grateful if they let us know here. I care about this game, and others do too, but the way the others are arguing is becoming a huge annoyance, and is ruining the enjoyment of the forum.

So here's where the topic ends, and please; anyone who is going to post in this topic saying "Like Crytek will listen to you", or "Like Crytek will give a shyte", please, just piss off. Please be serious here.

So thanks again guys,

Sahdev_92.


P.S: I'll be improving this topic as I think up of more.

I think 6v6 will work IF the everyone works as like a 6 man squad instead of one man army. I think in a way, that's why they simplified the nanosuit, so people won't run and gun and work as a team. If people don't, then i think the cap will need to be raised.

6 vs 6 Dont work i think because as manic say this 6 mans must work like a one good machine.So you think so everyone want play like this? With Nanosuit 2.0??? Ok,i understand i'ts neccesary but if i see enemy sniper aimed at my TMMate how i can alert him? Open chat and begin write? No! At this siutation you have 1-2 sec.Voice call? No! Why? 1-st bad quality.2-nd Maybe i have bad transcryption? 3-rd There is(in crysis/wars no team voice chat) And sniper can hear me and shoot.

Battlefield games have 32-64 people. In BC2 team play is very good, I think. How about having 32 people with 4 man squads?

To the OP: Yes, a survey would be a great idea! It would really help to put into perspective just how many people don't like 6v6 multiplayer, among other issues.

I think 6v6 will not work. Why, because in my opinion 6 vs 6 will force the run n' gun. Crytek says it'll make players work together and I believe that but at the same time I don't.

I believe because they played the mode internaly first which means all the people who played the game knew each other because they are the team developing the game.

I'm sure if I played it with my own friends it would work out that way too.

AND I don't believe because if all 12 players don't know each other, all of them will play solo.

Also 6 vs 6 won't work for a clan, yes there are clan wars with that much players but if a clan has at lease 20 people in it and everybody want's to play on their clan server, they will not be able to becuase of the 12 player cap.

Also in Crytek's booth at Gamescon, if there was a way, I bet, not one person from all the people that tried the multiplayer first hand, played as a team, they just ran n gun.

Unless, of course, they came with FRIENDS and played as a team.

This is not the thread to argue about the problem guys. We have various other topics for that.

Anyway, I love this idea. It reminds me a lot like the weekly poll we had on the old gamesas, and we could actually interview the employees at Crytek and all was well... I miss those functions...

Adding a poll functionality to the site is something we're keen to get up and running ASAP. It's an excellent way to gather clear feedback from the community.

I know it's a bit of a broken record with regards to the site updates but it is coming and Crytek are working hard on it. As much of a pain as this forum has been, i still find it better than the previous site and it's going to be awesome when complete

Cheers!

I was thinking about a poll but yeah a survey would be great. However, I seriously doubt crytek will even read this thread never mind actually listen to our opinion or take action on it

How can you be so sure? This is why I suggested this idea. At least sending them our views will at least make them think.

I also like the idea of a poll. In fact, the survey thingy is pretty much like a poll, only that you cast your vote and this time round, you give a detailed reason for your choice.

And cheers' Shinanigans for the information.

I'd say shoot the sniper, it would disturb him and he wouldn't be able to hit anything...

At least give us the option to up the player limit. :/ That's what dedicated servers and server admins are for

Thank you. I disagree with your views on this website being better though.

Functionality > Form

I never used the old MC because of the sheer lag that it suffered. All functionality was lost on my part before i could even log in

i like thi idea of haveing a 6 vs 6 ... Because its close qwauter's + not haveing ('16 vs 16) so 16 peole trying to kill you but dont get me wrong i loved 16 vs 16 just never got to relly play online much... i like 6 vs6 because it's new and u can get more Tactical.. But Bigger map would be nice to """ But a 8 vs 8 or 12 vs 12 or EVAN a 16 vs 16 would rock (Off topic) of other modes

I thought mw2 would be tactical when it shrunk it down to 12 players from 64 in cod4 but found that it simply created a whole host of campers. Don't expect crysis 2 to be any different.

In MW2, you could play tactically, but no one in your team would. Not many people cared about campers, and when they ran in and got killed, they cried about it. Tactics are about thinking things through, which is why many people who play the game die easily, because they don't think things through.

If Crysis was about tactics, I can expect Crysis 2 to have this.


Also, can we please stay on topic? You made me go off-topic. There are many threads in this forum which cater for your Multiplayer discussions. So use that please?

YES. i think its a smart move especially to control lag and other bad stuff about MP...

In the end unless your in a close clan or group of friend that play together you'll have team mates who just do their thing and dont care about the team.

I think a community survey is a really good idea, I'm all for it. I mean there isn't really all that much we could do to try and save the MP... but i'm willing to give anything a shot. Crysis is my all time favorite game along with Crysis Wars... and i would hate to see such an amazing tital get shat on.

So yeah, lets hope we can all get a community survey underway, and lets hope Crytek pays attention to it all :/
