Just a personal opinion, to my disappointment, just like what 90% of PC users say, I am somewhat disappointed with the game. I prepped my PC prior to the game (water cooled so I can push it to its limits), but I guess it wasn't worth it. Compared to Crysis 1, everything to me feels like MW2, with all the close quarter battles in SP, and the perks and mindless shooting in multiplayer. Graphics are nowhere near the original crysis although there may be a DX11 patch somewhere in the near future.

I still re-play Crysis 1 because you can do so much more in the game.

I don't feel like I wasted my money, but to me and perhaps some other PC users, Crysis 1 is still king of graphics (except metro 2033), and BFBC2 is still king of multiplayer that actually requires a little bit of skill and coordination. Now the long wait for Battlefield 3.

Crytek, you've changed man...

This thread makes me want to become a console gamer. Pathetic. Maybe if you guys spent more time playing the game instead of writing rambling walls of text you'd understand the genius of crysis 2.

Console port talks aside. The game is horrendously buggy and VERY unpolished. Almost seems like a rushed project.

Yeah imagine my frustration i just forked out 200 bucks for another card , TIGER says on a add BE READY for crysis 2 It's all about just getting that mighty dollar I'm done buying games forever !!!! And these game companys wonder why they have so much pirating going on.

Bumpped up for truth

the main thing im pissed about? no editor, man, i was waiting for the editor to do some work in for my portfolio of work, but no, not in there, even though they advertised that as much as the game itself. dissapointing.

oh, and the multiplayer doesnt work, but i wont blame Crytek for that, it is afterall, an EA release /sigh.

And people wonder why the pc community are usually in a bad mood.

I feel sorry for every single pc gamer that purchased Crysis 2. I didn't buy the game because I saw all this coming.

C2 looks and feels like bit enhanced Half-life 2 .. not even close to Crysis1
Also missing sandbox editor... which means that after couple more hours in SP, C2 going to be useless for me.

Bump because I completely freaking agree.

I agree with most of the things said here and which I see as a step back in favour of the console gamers.

- graphics: missing options and customisability, poor textures etc.
- poor AI
- gameplay: I am mounting a freaking cal. 50 HMG and can′t even shoot through a stupid garden fence. But my enemy with his SMG can.
Why is an advanced heat-vision device from the future eating away my energy resources at the same rate as an aircraft carrier at full speed would do?


But away from the game itself, there are other issues...

- What is going on with the MP right now is freaking ridiculous. I am still not able to lock into the MP part and the support, beside the poor overburdened admins here, feels like just not existent.

- And what is really bugging me is that there is only an english side for the game. Don′t get me wrong, I am usually fine with english games and sides. But Crytek is a german company, I told every gamer I know "Buy the f′ing game, don′t pirate it! Support a german game company since this is such a unique and rare thing!" And now I have to maneuver my not english speaking friends through an not working registration on a english side with english (non-)support for the not working MP part.
Maybe I would not see this as such a problem if the game would not be as messed up as it is.

OP here. I just discovered something terrible.

Horribly terrible. I can't be redundant enough to describe this.

There's goddamn DirectX10 files in the Bin32 folder. And they're inaccessible. It's like... They just sort of stopped trying to make it good. Like, at some point they said "Well, **** it, let's do DX9".

I guarantee you Crytek is currently coming up with some kinda PR solution rather than fixing their broken game.

I see the mouth-breathing fanboys who accept anything shoved down their throat have come out to support their new favorite port. Crytek rejoices, "They call me Profit."

what's a PR ?

what's a PR ?

public relations

this so unbelievable. i just cant believe Crytek turned its back on the people that made this franchise a success. Yerli should be ashamed of himself. no graphics customization. no sandbox editor. the maps are linear and condensed(CLEARLY a limitation of the console's lack of processing power. god forbid u try to load long draw distances or a high amount of destructible objects in one large open area.) FOV is a joke. hit detection is a joke. no dx11 OR dx10. and to top it off multiplayer riddled with bugs. screw you crytek. i hope you go bankrupt.

I'm not sure if this will make you happy or sad. On the Crysis 2 DVD, there are DX9, DX10, and DX11 files.

Would be nice if they explained the story of the aliens, first there blue and flying awsome ice fortress and now there red exo-suit guys stomping around in New York? where the heck did all of that come from? They tried explaining it a bit but not nearly enough.

Ive been waiting so long for a good game that i could really test out my comp with, push it to its limits you know? The game is by far the prettiest out there ill give you that hands down right now, animations are amazing and everything looks great. Love most of the sounds and the music is amazing. But if i wanted all of that I could have just gone to see Tron in imax again. My computer didnt choke at all, not a problem anywhere while i was playing. Thats kind of a let down to be truthfull.

There are some features which are awsome, stealthkilling. upgrading your nano suit ( even if they are they from the multiplayer perks) and other little things. But you have also taken away alot and didnt fill the void.

Unless theres going to be a full blown expansion that fixes all the laggy online play, fills in the story more and in general just a game that wasnt ported over from the console series then I dont think ill ever care for the games again.

You guys are such complainers, we don't get DX11 on 360, and we're more hardcare gamers then you with your stupid M&K.

stop qqing and play the game the way it was meant to be played, on 360!

pwned!

LOL gtfo troll...

The fact you just said this game is MEANT to be played on a 360 shows how much of a fail it is. Get out of the PC forums, retard.

I'm not a retard I have it on PC so I can use my 360 controller to own everyone. I'm always like 20/4 K/D so svck it newb!

I also own it on PS3 and 360
