It's a console port full of bugs and defects and the first overshadow's it completely and then some.

Does that answer your question?

It doesn't. As a game itself it is awesome.


People are just biching about the lack of DX 11 support. Dx 11 wont make it a better game. IT will just make it slightly prettier.

In my opinion, the game play in crysis 2 is linear as ****. I started playing the original crysis and i found all sorts of **** i never saw before because after playing crysis 2 i really appreciated the open environment in the original and decided to explore in crysis.

It is half way of what Crysis 1 is, and a lot less than Crysis Warhead is.
The only 2 good things you got on Crysis 2 is the stealth death and the power stump. Everything else is so dumbed down that is just ridiculous awful.

If they would have at least opened up a few alternative routs in some parts of the game, it would have been nice. Maybe a couple building you could go explore, a few different roads you could run down that would ultimately lead to where you needed to go, that'd be alright. Hell if they had gone so far as to let you do a bit more building hoping, that would have been awesome too. But instead its all just a giant hallway that you run down. Always the same way, every time. Linear. As. Phuck. And that stupid visor crap that makes you completely stop what your doing so it can tell you what you already know is a little annoying.

Linear gameplay given to the pinnacle of open world sandbox. Well Crysis 1 wasn't open, but at leased it felt like it. Real limitless gameplay is found in Farcry 2 or Oblivion etc.

Excuse me sir, but are you suggesting that I if I like the game on PC i'm strictly wrong? I'm not "ass kissing", the game is a lot of fun. I played Crysis 1 and Warhead and Wars and I loved them, they were revolutionary. I've played a lot of FPSs and comparing it to crysis 2 I really enjoy C2 far more than those other ones. The MP and SP are really great and have taken up far too much of my time haha.

I really enjoy it!

I'm happy I bought it. Superb graphics, superb urban environment, most badass-looking aliens. However the lack of Sandbox 3 is very disappointing.

Cause it speaks console, if this was still a pc exclusive we would have had better graphics, dx11, better physics, better support after launch ( only 1 platform). The story would have continued or at least not resetted so console boys can follow the story. And above all it would feel crysis again instead of (COD&Halo clone.)

I can accept the story, even though it lacks info about Nomad, H. Rosenthall, Psycho etc.
I can accept the gameplay change.

But I can't accept putting a game out on the market that can be played online by just entering a keygen key and without basic anti-piracy features. Or changing some client side files to edit everything to one's unbeatable liking.

It's like preventing online cheating/hacking was not even in PC version's checklist.

That's what has disappointed me the most.

What's No.2 is how slow holes are getting patched up.

PS. In before "every game has bugs, etc.", yes, I know. I've been playing the Battlefield series since BF 1942 and I had played Tribes 2. But no such game had a "welcome cheaters/crackers/hackers" sign like Crysis 2. :(

You can see that multiplayer was rethought to get a better community and it's such a shame that this community is already blasted by such poor security design.

What's worse is, if a working Keygen can be released, that means they do NOT have a database of codes to cross reference with. AFAIK Piraters can write down the key they entered and fight with Crytek in the future for it's legitimacy.

Seems like anyways.

Agreed - the wife bought it for me (as I was not going to buy it) Im glad she did - although im not finished Playing and it is very linier - it is pretty fun - Im glad she bought it even if it will ultimatly end up in the not playing anymore pile in a few days.

I really honestly only wanted the editor with the crysis2 assets to play with. So its still a big dissapointment just as the UDK type editor they plan to put out will be - no assets probably so it will be usless to the average dude..

Personally I enjoyed the game (was a bit short and very linear tho :/). Altho it wasnt til I bought it that I saw what all the whiners were going on about (figured/hoped they were exaggerating how watered down things were due to multi-platform), the gameplay and graphics being streamlined did take away from the experience imo.

The lack of DX11 and Sandbox3 is where my real disappointment lies. Heres hoping there will be some good news about these in the future.

Even with a less impressive engine (at least what was implemented in game), the game is prettier than C1 but at the same time it just failed to make anywhere near the impact C1 did - C1 really felt like it pushed things and thanks to a ground breaking engine you couldnt help but feel immersed.

I like crysis 2, maybe it isn′t as demanding as expecting, but it′s a really good game, the problem is that people was expecting something else, I think that if Crytek launch a Directx 11 Patch, that makes unplayable the game with anything less than an ATI 6950 people would be really happy.

While the story and game play is a part of my gripes. (Along with the other laundry list of issues)
This is really odd they didn't do any basic kind of security. It almost seems as if they wanted it to be weak...maybe because the beta was "leaked" out they don't care...or they just want more excuses to blame crackers/piraters for their mistakes?
I read someone's suggestion that they may use this as an excuse to make strictly for consoles. Completely off the wall idea with no real proof...however things don't seem to add up and it does make one wonder...
