 Post subject: Crytek: Is this game going DOWNHILL?
PostPosted: 03 14, 2011 /02:19 

Crysis is dying, and it has been obvious since we found it was being released on all 3 platforms. Already PC gamers notice that ALL the effort has been put into consoles with the "PRESS START TO BEGIN" text on startup. What an embarrasment. These are some issues that have really pissed me off:

1.
No lean in multiplayer
2. No prone in multiplayer
3. When you're hit it doesn't show what direction you're hit from
4. DX11 is meant to come in with a patch. Alright, this is a big one: EA could just be rushing this game so they can ultimately benefit from shareholders and stuff, but ffs. This is meant to be CRYSIS, "Can you're computer run it?!" but now PC gamer enthusiasts have been reduced to 9-years-old, console-quality bull crap.
5. Graphic options are ****. Don't know if it's true, but apparently Anti-Aliasing is on by default, he's running on his laptop so he can't even play the game because the framerate is so bad. Point being: where the hell are the graphic options??

There are good things about Crysis 2, the sound effects are pretty awesome, the graphics are good for DX9 and the game play is pretty alright.
But question is, what else has been encountered in the gameplay that is just pisses you off?

Crysis 2 was definitely not rushed. The game was supposed to release last year but was delayed until now.

I am not a MP guy so none of the issues you brought up influence me in the slightest.

I am also a console player so, crysis 2 (DX9 or else) is, by far, the VERY best looking game out there in my market (and face it..........it's pretty damn awesome on PC as well and you ARe gonna get your DX11 at launch)

campaign mode is a whopping 12 hours long


the only thing that could potentially upset me is the lack of modular chapters but so far it seems they will be in

Crysis 2 will be awesome. Pure and simple: MAXIMUM AWESOME. Well for me anyway, if it sucks for you then too bad, go play something else. Luckily for you, there are approximately 18 bagillion other games out there.

You have to remember that the game we are playing is a Beta. Also, they fixed the "press start to begin" thing.

No, we're playing a DEMO. As for the "press start" thing, it shouldn't have been there in the first place. It ever being there clearly shows that the PC version is a port of the Xbox 360 version. Anyone who has been following development of Crysis 2 knows how obvious it is that the Xbox 360 is the lead development platform.

Even if the game is a Xbox 360 port, we will have our DX11 on launch day, also there will be a mod/patch that fixes any mistakes caused by it being an Xbox port.

1. why the hell would you want a worthless thing like lean in MP? and why is this enough of a reason to doubt the game?
2. prone is not very important at all, certainly not enough to make me change my mind on how good a game is.
3. showing where you are getting hit from is cheap and too much like CoD, and is about as realistic as getting a bloody screen.
4. DX11 is reletively worthless at this point in time. it just came out, so it would make very few differences in quality. the fact that it is delayed is a stupid reason to think a game sucks, you get it when you get it, and when you get it, you wont see much of a defference.
5. you do know you can edit the graphics in the game files anyway right? why dont you like graphics being more simple to adjust? and why are you complaining about AA if you get it without any performance drops?

implosion....nice try but people like the doomsayers in these forums will NEVER change their minds even if evidence is right infront of them.

Case in point, even AFTER people were shown directly from the lead designer that Drago Age 2 played exactly like DAO if you wanted to play with heavy pause and play and tactics they STILL believed that it could only be played as an hack and slash.....
