With the right maps it could be a great multiplayer game - the specialisms of the suits give it a lot of versatility. | ||

Don't believe it was for console first and you believe their claim of "PC is still the most important"? Look at this. Press Start Button: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/T79zw.jpg) Adjust your TV Brightness: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/SQ4o6.jpg) Also add these to the end of your executable - it removes the intro splash screens, motion blur, and sets your FOV to 90 (from a measly default 55) +cl_fov=90 +r_DrawNearFoV = 90 +pl_movement.power_sprint_targetFov = 90 +r_MotionBlur=0 +g_skipIntro=1 People have been complaining about the FPS... I've been getting 40 FPS at 1920x1080 with 5850, 6 GB of RAM, and a i7 @ 3.8 at Hardcore. | ||

LOL to be fair, there is no auto-aim when using a mouse. I think that's just for those weird people that plug in a controller to play it or just a really sloppy porting job. | ||

As for the actual gameplay... it feels pretty terrible. For instance, I'll run into someone and unload about 100 rounds into them and they don't die. Meanwhile, I tend to die in one or two shots. I noticed that my rank is always lower than everyone else, and I can't help but feel they do more damage or have more health because of their rank. I'm sure it's fine once you get playing for a while, but I didn't even have the patience to make it through a single game because it was quite literally impossible for me to kill anyone unless I managed to sneak up behind them and unload into the back of their head. It also looks like you have to unlock classes. I was only able to use Assault, whereas I was killed multiple times by snipers. Not a big fan of the whole... "you have to put in x hours before you can be competitive" style. I also dislike the graphics. They look decent (you can tell it's a console port, though) but I feel like I'm about to have a seizure the entire time I'm playing. There's so much blur and random camera movement that it's simply disorienting. I may buy this for singleplayer, but as far as multiplayer goes it's not worth picking up. Just another generic console shooter ported to PC with a few gimmicks like sliding thrown in. | ||

In game though I put in my username and password and press the log in button and the "Logging in" splash screen. After that it goes back to the login screen. It isn't a connectivity issue, because if I change the username I immediately get an "Wrong username/password" error. EDIT: Added some more info on the error. I had the same problem-- for some reason, just registering a new account in-game and logging in to that one worked fine. | ||

The requirements for this game are far less than Crysis. So the game is running on a 180€ graphics card? I'm sure where the FPS complaints stem from. | ||

 tried using a different email and have the same problem. I know its just a demo but there are some big bugs in it and that does not bode will imo for the finished product. That being said I hope its great. Loved the final level of crysis1 on full graphics completely epic! | ||

On one hand I can understand putting it on consoles because of the massive piracy numbers for Crysis. But on the other I just can't say it's okay to do a complete, and let's just say it, shit port of the game from a console to the PC when the original was designed with the PC only in mind. You can tell that this is a console port through and through. Auto-Aim? TV settings? Really? And Crytek has the nerve to say that the PC is their primary platform, but they just do completely shoddy development like this. And even IF it is a demo it still leaves a sour taste in the mouth of anyone that played and loved the first one and got shoveled this shit. A demo should make me want to buy the game. However I'm more tempted now to open up BitTorrent at the end of the day after seeing this. It just isn't that good either. Completely cookie cutter and generic now. Granted it is a step up in MP from the first one, but it isn't exactly hard to improve on crap. It just feels like every other generic shooter though, with the exception of the suit. I might as well be playing Modern Warfare 3 at this point. Because that's exactly what it is. I really didn't have high hopes for this, and I'm rather thankful I didn't. It's going to be more of a benchmark for my system over an actual game, and oddly enough I don't even think it looks as good as Crysis. | ||

Crysis 2 feels overall great 8.5/10 ! Very very well optimized for PC btw There are 3 settings Gamer (an optimized low?) Advanced (an optimized med. ?) Hardcore (an optimized high. ?) DX9 (this game is so far only dx9, no news of x10/11, rumors that dx11 wont actually be supported at launch) 1680x1050 Celeron Dual Core E3300 2.5ghz @ 4.0ghz (yes its a fucking $50 celeron, cheapest cpu i could find @ my local store at that time) HD4850 512mb 4GB DDR2 8800mhz Win7 Prof. 64bit Gamer Setting: 37-40fps average Advanced Setting: 31-35 fps average Hardcore Setting: haven't tested DO NOTE: that the difference between Gamer->Advanced->Hardcore is VERY minimal. Their were picto comparisons and it just had to do with different motion blurs being used, it could VERY WELL Be that the retail version holds nothing similar to this demo. | ||

DX11 features might be a bit delayed, they're apparently behind schedule and rushing to finish the game since EA won't let them delay the release. | ||

My only issue with the demo was that I wasn't able to run it super smoothly, so a lot of my gameplay impressions were not super great. Still, I'm surprised my laptop could run it smoothly enough to actually play it. | ||

Well, maybe not that extreme. Still it was the death of me several times :D Also, watch this. Old but still somewhat accurate IMO (yeah it's an early comparison and PC vs console but just look at it). Otherwise I like the gameplay on the skyline map, the other one is a bit too camper-ish for me. I've only played the 1st crysis singleplayer, however the weapon feel was way better there IMO.. Here it's practically no-go to shoot without holding down aim/zoom/whatever - it's practically melee, plus the recoil seems a bit too random/high even when you aim. As for the suit modes - cloak is fairly easy to spot once you get used to it  | ||
