I find the multiplayer boring Because,

In multiplayer you are given a variety of niche weapons like Snipers for long Range engagements, and LMG for support, A grenade launcher to flush enemies out of one spot, and shotguns for those close situations.

This is great! because you choose your weapon to cater to your playing style.

Although there is one little thing about this game that renders it svckish and that is the Feline, the SCAR and the SCARAB.

These are all-niche weapons that work in all situations, and work well, even out niching other weapons in their own niche.

These weapons require little skill to operate, Arguably the least skill requiring weapons to use effectively.

These weapons ruin the Multiplayer experience because of the Fact they All work well in all situations, too well.

Why penalise yourself by trying to practice other weapons that only work in a certain niche and are harder to use?



If i was in control of the weapon balance I would tone those guns right down to where they take a solid 2 seconds of continuous fire to get a kill, they are blatently overpowered and i'm sorry if I offend you, but if you disagree you are either Arrogant, can't see the obvious or you actually use them yourself and are being biased about them.

As it stands the Multiplayer is like this.

Easy option = Rewards.

Harder option = Punishments.


I don't want to be a try-hard I don't want to take the easy peasy option all the time, I want challenge, but the game punishes me for choosing the harder option It's like Crytek WANTS us to play Run N' Gun all the time and just put the other weapons in there to make their game look good in the description of the game and just to shut up people complaining that they aren't there.


I don't like this multiplayer because It punishes those who challenge themselves and rewards those who don't.

I can use these guns, I do not svck at the game, I'm finished with the crutches, I want to move on to more rewardiung guns that are more challenging to use, but instead I get punished and almost forced back to using the crutches since they are the most effective and versatile of the whole weapon arsenal.

99% of multiplayer games after COD4 reward bad tactics, pray & Spray and general bad aim.

Counterstrike was king and still is.

If you want to challenge yourself go on there, there is no challenge on console. Mostly every player is crap, they just think they are good playing against retards trying hard.

You guys are teh awsums hardcoe leet

If the MP is boring to you, then why are you playing it?

Now that you have generated an opinion i.e. it's boring, then why are you playing it? and if you're not playing it then why are you here?

Got nothing else to do?

What's wrong with 'casual gaming'?

Games are for fun and relaxation. You want a challenge? Play a private match with custom rules. Nothing's stopping you. Don't force your conception of fun on the majority who don't share it.

I've been playing games for 25 years, and am MVP for 50% of my games in Crysis 2 (over 350 played so far), so am not a 'noob', but I identify far more readily with people who play for a laugh than hardcoe nerds. If you want to be competitive, go play a sport or get good at something that actually means something instead of getting arrogant over a game of teh space marinez!!!11!! that barely anyone actually puts any effort into getting legitimately dominant in simply because there's more important things for them to do in life.

I'm excellent at this game and I couldn't care less. It means nothing.

I'd much rather play Nintendogs in bed on the DS with the girlfriend than get screamed out by some kids and endlessly grinding perks in the latest FPS rubbish. If that's what hardcoe gaming is about these days it can go **** itself.

Lol, personally I think achieving in a sport is really the same as doing something in a video game, its about fun and nobody else should care about the accomplishment but yourself. (Yet NFL/MLG flourish...)
Now ignore my trollage and go back to arguing!

I do too, Although I find fun in challenge.

there is such thing as a casual gamer who likes a challenge every once in a while.

I agree, and that's me.

Well always challenge myself with all weapons in all the games I play. It help me to get more XP and I get good using all weapons. So far in this game I'm working to get all weapons to 500 kills. So far I got there with Scar, Feline, Scarab, M60. Very close Grendel, Kvolt and DSG1. You can argue that some weapons are better than others but everyone of them has something unique, and once you dominate the game you canget the kills.

So having said that, the last Sniper is a POS(my personal opinion) and the side arms need more punch since 3 oof the four are semiautomatic and I feel and you don't need a full clip(i know thart it is a revolver) of a Majestic to take someone out.

To OP, this is why AIM should play a larger role in battles instead of the go to tactic of hold down trigger till someones dead or the hope doesn't get you if you started shooting first.

I was going to wait until the end of April to see if this game is fixed or sell it, but it requires a lot of tweaks to play with the big boys, I'm not sure if they can fix some of the fundamental problems. Although, if they fix that grain glitch I'd probably keep it for SP.

if its boring just go something else

I am just casual gamer just like DntMessWitRohan said ... I am pretty good at Crysis 2, get tons of kills and points, or sometimes i just give up play for crap, just have fun ...

people want challenge, yeah then go tell MLG to get crysis 2 hardcoe

i like how the op says he wants a challenge and he wants the feline scarab scar nerfed so that he can do better with the other weapons. lol
so basically you want crytek too remove the challenge of using other weapons. if all the weapons were the same the challenge would be gone you idiot.

btw i can get just as good a k/d with both snipers or even the mike as i can with the feline so your doing it wrong!

You guys are teh awsums hardcoe leet

Theres nothing elitist about it, we are people who enjoy challenging experiences and who like to push ourselves rather than being spoon fed wether it be in a game, at work or at sports.

All I am saying is that the weapon balance is Biased towards the Easy to use weapons that work in all cases, and the other weapons in the weapon arsenal don't seem as useful since they aren't as versatile.

I'm just saying that shotguns should be incredibly more effective than the fully automatic weapons at close range, make it like you are lucky to survive a fight with an assault rifle against a shotgun in close range.

I'm not saying that weapons that work in all cases are bad, I'm just saying that the weapons that do work in all cases, are outperforming other weapons in their own niche.

The all niche weapons should deal very low damage and take a long time to kill someone to balance out the fact they work in all cases.

I doubt hardcoe gaming actually mean endlessly grinding perks. If you guys don't mind me saying so, my definition of hardcoe gaming is playing it for hours on end doing the thing it's meant to be played for. There's only one thing I really want to unlock for Crysis 2 MP: the SCAR Reflex Sight. aside from that, I just wanna play the game and have a laugh doing so

I have the solution.....BRINK

Bet the local retailers will be refusing trade ins on C2 by the time that is out..... or at the best $5 off....

I've been burnt by KAOS and Crytek with their sh1t netcode. I'm not going to do it a third time with BRINK.
BRINK's netcode is unproven to me as well.

Unless this is a developers third or fourth console game I'm going to lead with the assumption that the MP will sμck b@llz for the first month at a minimum.

Splash Damage's last game was Quake Wars, has anyone here played it? How was the netcode?
