Hmm, I feel like crytek would benefit more from a beta period of longer than 2 months. I loved crysis, and especially crysis wars, but I felt like there were a few specific areas that indicated beta testing wasn't thorough enough. Specifically the netcode. As it is, crysis and crysis wars netcode heavily benefits lag, to the point where if your ping is higher than 200, you can't be hit in an aircraft (due to extreme phasing), and your bullets seemingly "go through walls" during intense firefights.
These kinda problems scream "I was thoroughly tested on a LAN at EA" and not "End users played the f**k outta me before my publisher got to release me."
The longer the beta the betta.
