Here at Crytek we value our community, and we love what you do with our engine. In recent times our focus has been heavily on the development of Crysis 2, however our modding community has been, and remains, very important to us.

So, I wanted to tell you about our plans for supporting you in the future with some really exciting news, which I want to share with you now. Modding with the most powerful game engine is coming back!

We want to see what you guys can do with CryENGINE 3 and we hope we'll be as amazed with the things you create as we have been over the past few years. This time around, we're going to do things in a different way - offering you the right tools to achieve your vision.

First of all, we will be launching an Editor for Crysis 2 early in summer. This will allow you to build new maps, items and more custom content for Crysis 2. For teams looking for even more creative freedom, we have another option: The free CRYENGINE SDK.

I was hoping that I could get my hands on CryEngine 3 to expand my knowledge at release, but it's good to know that the game's engine will not be kept out of the community's reach permanently. I look forward to seeing some great mods and maps from this community, and hope to expand my personal portfolio as well.

Thanks Crytek,

And this is the reason why i like this company, even if they slip a bit they are still kicking

Thats all we ask from a company is TALK to you cusomers at least we can mod the hell out of this game and it will be very interesting to see were we as a modding community can take this game and in my opinon this game will last a long time due to the mods that will come out of peoples imagination and hope upon hope that there is a sdk compatible with 3ds max 2010/11/12

Nice, I take it as an apology post in a way.

It will help keeping this game alive.

Good post, thanks. Thanks Crytek.

Great news, though im surprised they haven't said anything about EA trying to stop the modding community as they love to have money.

Hilarious, yet sad at the same time because EA is so money hungry that every consumer knows it yet we still buy their trash. /sadface

You're surprised that Cevat Yerli didn't openly bash his publishing company in an open letter to Crytek's fanbase? Really?? That surprises you??
