Crysis 2 Multiplayer Beta and how to play it TODAY (xbl gold only) - Games

In the demo has anyone else noticed a huge delay between when you melee someone and when they die?

[QUOTE=sa2fan;27704128]PC? Hell yeah, let's see If I can max it with my 6870. :smile:[/QUOTE] You can, anything that can max Crysis (1) will be able to max this easy.

[QUOTE=broo20;27704910] Called lag ma brother[/QUOTE] Yeah but whenever I check if I have lag there's 4 green bars which I always found suspicious, unless it's lag on their end. It's also the only thing lag is really noticeable on. Occasionally I will see another player jump a few metres but that could be related to lag on their end. Am I the only one who seems to always have 4 green bars or are other people getting this too?

Four bars means shit all. For all we know "four bars" could mean 10-200 ms ping.

[QUOTE=Pandamobile;27705139]Four bars means shit all. For all we know "four bars" could mean 10-200 ms ping.[/QUOTE] It seems strange when I am the only person playing with 4 green bars. I've never even seen anyone with above 3 orange bars. Also I'd assume 4 green bars would be <100ms.

Played it yesterday, Was alright but I don't like melee being more efficent than guns.

[QUOTE=broo20;27706794]You're the host, then, and you're causing errbody to lag.[/QUOTE] I thought that at first but from the amount of rounds I've played I thought there would've been at least one time where I wasn't the host. Perhaps I am doing something wrong when looking for servers.

I might not even bother downloading it when I get xbl due to all the negative feedback its getting. It sounds like the game has a ton of problems.

What it does is it sucks internet from other people and thus increases your own speed so everyone around you lags.

Wasn't it obvious that some kind of demo would come to pc eventually?

I had personally assumed not considering the multiplayer trailer said quite implicitly "Exclusive multiplayer demo for Xbox 360". Still happy about a PC release, means I can actually confirm if it runs decent on my busted ass system.

Crysis demo had the editor, I wonder if Crysis 2's mp demo will (doubt it, seen as it's a pre-release demo, but someone might hack it in.)

Anyone liking the new look of the SCAR? I personally prefer the Crysis 1 one.

PC Demo, awesome. Hopefully we don't get the rundown console port version. I swear Crytek if Crysis 2 is some water down garbage console port I've lost all faith in PC gaming.

Snip misread

[QUOTE=redBadger;27709335]I doubt it. I don't think you can hack a CryEngine 2 editor in a CryEngine 3 game.[/QUOTE] I mean, if the editor is part of the base game exe which it could be, it might be as simple as adding editor to the command line, much like it is for Unreal Engine 3 games.

I think Fear mean the beta, not the game.

[QUOTE=imadaman;27720564]I think Fear mean the beta, not the game.[/QUOTE] Oh ok, but why would you port a beta of a pc game when you can make a beta on the pc instead of a port.

It could be faster?

how about no more damn ports in the first place
