[360] Crysis 2 beta discussion thread

[BrntO4Life]

Says your $50 per year subscription to XBL.

Anyone who pays full MSRP for their Live subscription is a dummy.

I got mine for $25....so there.

Wasn't saying/implying you were a dummy. I think most of us here take advantage of the sales of Live subscriptions anyways.

wow crytech fucked up the shotgun

thing is way too powerful and accurate as fuck. dont even have to aim it

 

[Tengo Juego]

I thought this demo/beta was weak. Killstreaks & Perks are too much like the Call of Duty games. I would have preferred they made their own formulaic multiplayer. Melee is down right garbage. Game lags like crazy...or it could have been just the groups I was continuing to get matched up with. I saw a lot of German flags, so maybe that was why they had such poor connections to I guess my host(I was the only full green ping).

Free Running stuff is cool. The energy bar is cool. Armor boost and cloak are there and work, I just dont really like either of them.

Passable game. Unless the SP is something completely unique and better than the MP.

I shall continue to wait for this....

I'm not spoiling my expierence by playing it on a console :lesmug:

 

[MmmmBeeeeer]

no it didnt....he just mad cause once again his lone console falls by the way side to the 360 who always gets things first.

he is just disguising his hate as trolling when in reality he is thinking how bad he wants to play this demo and that he can only go back to playing the 2nd rate driving game known as GT5 when he could have been playing forza 3

I am into racing sims, not arcade games. GT5 stomps all over Forza from a racing standpoint.

My post had nothing to do with PS3/360 debate, but the fact that my understanding is that the first Crysis you needed a top of the line pc gaming rig to run it at full settings, and I'm sure the 2nd one will be the same.

Hence why I think it is funny that it is being ported to consoles when it looks so gorgeous on a PC.

Furthermore, it was also my understanding that the first Crysis wasn't even that great of a game, it just looked badass.

However continue assuming that I am just here to troll because I'm "jealous" because I don't own a 360 :rofl:

I don't own a 360 by choice.

I'll just fill in here for answers.

Crysis 2 is being ported and isn't using the original cry engine. I think if I remember right the engine being used this time is similar to the one that was used in Far Cry too but a little more tweaked. I haven't kept on my crysis (or pc gaming for that matter) so I'm not 100% sure.

The first crysis was pretty good for the people that knew what it was about. They had a lot of crazy good things going on in it. Sadly PC pirating and the fact you needed a decent computer to run it did hurt it a bit. The whole myth about it needed a "crazy high end" computer and you had to spend thousands of dollars on a machine to play it was pretty funny to me. When I used to work at a computer store we sold crysis ready computers that were around $899. No monitor or keyboard/mouse in the package but those machines played the game and were pretty good computers for people.

Yes you are a PS3 troll with your fancy black system that yellow rings instead of the cool red us Xboxers get. Green smoke > boring black smoke.

 

[MmmmBeeeeer]

I know I am a PS3 troll, I just wanted to make it clear that I was not attempting to be a PS3 troll in this thread.

I would have replied " :rofl: consoles", but I did not know this was a multiplatform game, I haven't paid attention to it at all.

nice try

now that your fail troll has been exposed you might want to know more about the game before your throw your fanboy under the bus. all you did was embarrassed the little guy

 

[Buzzman]

whose bragging? im just pointing out your fail

what do i care if MS payed for it? its not my money

the braggin wasn't pointed at oyu, just a general statemnt. What was my fail? I for one will never ever play "new" pc games. I don't have the CPU to handle it and I prefer the consoles in general. If I never play the CPU version, I cant be missing out on anything by playing on consoles because I wont know what im missing out on in the first place.

My fail troll has been exposed? God you are dumb, maybe you should know a little more about the game yourself to understand what my intentions were originally. Boucher was the only one that got it.

I'm just going to buy the PC version out of spite now :laugh:

i should have said his fail...not your fail...my bad

im dumb? at least i knew the game was on both consoles and didnt derail a discussion by trying to flame the 360 for a game we all know superior on the pc. It was a fail troll because your fanboy effort got shredded and now your back tracking to make it look like you knew it was on both consoles, when its clear what you were really trying to do

regardless, thanks for ruining the discussion before it even got started

 

[Twigg4075]

I tried playing the other morning and apparently couldn't find a game. It just kept saying "searching for games" and then "joining game" over and over.

Then I just tried a bit ago and got into a game without any problem. Four kills away from my team winning my 360 freezes. Awesome. I'm hoping it was the beta and not my sixth 360 about to die.

What I played seemed pretty cool though.

 

[MvP]

Played the demo. Took a solid 5 minutes to get into a match, and then after playing the match I thought it sucked. The demo is now deleted from my hard drive and I will try to forget that this game ever even existed.

And it appears that leaf will not be taking part in the new crysis.

Report: Crysis 2 To Ship Without DX11 Support, Coming In Post-Launch Patch - eXophase.com

We’ve received word from Swedish hardware site Sweclockers that Crysis 2 will ship without DX11 support, much like its recently released demo counterpart. The tidbit was unearthed at a recent Nvidia presentation. Apparently, Crytek plans to patch in the renderer as part of a post-launch update.
While specific DX11 features due for inclusion went unmentioned, at the bare minimum, it’s expected that we’ll see tessellation and advanced depth of field effects a la Metro 2033.
Until then, PC gamers rocking the latest and greatest hardware will have to make do with DX9. There’s no word on a release timeline for the patch, but here’s hoping that Crytek themselves break the silence soon.

It also appears the game is a direct console port to PC. I kinda laugh because they whined about it being pirated now well its just going to get pirated about 100X more now.
