Pushing both graphics and exploring new gameplay elements. Due to greed however they fell back and started to cut features and dumb down their games in general for a wider CoD audience. you cant really single crytek out though. essentially ALL FPS games are made for consoles now. | ||

Ahh, it's good that you can maybe change it with Custom servers, i think 12v12 would work out nicely if their is some bigger maps to come. | ||

Honestly, the most annoying thing by far is it's unbelievably overused motion blur. If anything it takes away from any realism they were going for, in my opinion. | ||

Honestly, its just a gimmicky run and gun as most people in the thread are suggesting. Console port or not, the graphics and lighting can be blinding and pretty at the same time. My Core 2 Duo E6750 with a EVGA 460 runs it on max at 1920 by 1080 with a good amount of frame rate loss when outdoors on the highest quality, but the medium quality it runs great. I was pretty shocked at how low the requirements were to actually run the game. I was guessing my processor wasn't going to be able to take it. They haven't really added anything new mechanics wise in comparison with the first Crysis and it's respective expansion. If anything, vehicle combat is non existant except for kill streak or dog tag streaks, whatever you want to call it. Maybe vehicles will be present elsewhere, maybe in single player? I don't know. I don't think I'll be buying it because it does feel like a CoD clone but with a cloaking feature. There isn't much strategy to the game as of yet, thats for sure. 3 / 5: 2 for pretty graphics at a low cost, and 1 for frenetic, but deceptively repetitive and CoD-like, game play | ||

 ) and gotta say it's a decent game as far as i can tell but i kinda expected more from crytec...gameplaywise and graphicwise, even for a demothe game was different from other fps, no doubt....but it felt just kinda like a mix of cod, bf and other current more or less successful fps-titles | ||

 to all the people complaining about the graphics, i just dont understand. what games look better than crysis 2? crysis 1? maybe, but performance is like 5x better on crysis 2. although yea i think crysis 1 was a lot more impressive with the scope of each level. and to people saying that the demo is bad/boring/etc, could you name what FPSs you prefer to it? Im trying to understand why I like when i have stupidly high standards for games usually and yet it seems most people posting on the thread think it's fucking garbage. | ||

The sliding mechanism looks weird. Sliding is so fast and it seems like you can slide indefinitely; it looks like there's no friction. | ||

It's not that there's anything out there that sets itself from the pack. Crysis 2 has some neat gimmicks with the cloaking and armor and power modules, but in the end its the same as we've always seen. The adaptive nano-suit is nice, but FPS seriously needs something genre-breaking for it to become interesting again beyond a moment's glance. | ||

 Edit* got it working just start typing random letters into the account info XD didn't think of that! Overall im most impressed of the optimization of the engine anyone who was a fan of the first knows that was one the things they should have improved on the most. It ran perfect on my system at max settings with dual monitors and watching gsl games i missed on my other screen so i couldn't be happier with that. The multiplayer is nothing ground breaking other then the gimmick of the nano suit but if you have ever played the original crysis multiplayer you would easily see that this is a improvement. Its at least fun and OK nothing special but worth trying out, crysis 1 and its multiplayer was a train wreck compared to this so im really glad they have improved that. With that said tho who cares about multiplayer Crysis has always been about the singleplayer experience! With the new engine that runs WAY better + a respectable multiplayer crysis 2 is looking superb im easily getting it day one. For anyone who is a fan of the franchise and what its came from will love the new game. | ||

Quake 1 in 1996 was one of the first full-3d shooters, was multiplayer oriented and is still some of the best multiplayer FPS gameplay available :purgh I hope they dont overfocus on MP. If a Game cant stand up with his SP then dont let it have MP at all good old times and focus on delievering an amazing SP experience thats what these Games are actually made for to tell a SP Story not some MP Crap. MP ruined so many SP games whith the amount of Work you have to invest in the PvP settings so much Time better invested in more longer SP. and what do you have from MP anyway... some ladder standing, some Equipment or Achievements or what not and I guess FUN the first 100 or so Matches that always in the Core Sense the Game stay the Same. MP where you can never tell when a Game is supposed to be over once you have 100% so you can move on to the next on the list never caught my intrest same with these huge Timewasters aka MMOs like you can take them seriously at all lols. | ||
