[QUOTE=Bi0hazard;28365853]3. Stealth kills are too hard. I still haven't figured this out. It's like you have to stand directly behind your target for two whole seconds before you can stealth kill.
4. Armor mode is pointless. It's a chore to enter armor mode whenever you're being shot at. Why not remove it and increase player health?
5. Movement speed is extremely annoying. The non-sprinting move speed should be a jog, not a walk.[/QUOTE]
I agree with 3, 4 and 5.
Armor mode has saved my life countless times from point blank jackel shots to the back. Its kind of annoying how you have to switch into it but you get used to it after a few games.

[QUOTE=clanratc;28364814]I like it. The core multiplayer gameplay is like cod, so if you already in the cod hate mindset you wont like this. But the modes add so much more to it, the levels become more open while still providing cover, you don't have to run and gun etc.[/QUOTE]
That pretty much means everyone on facepunch will hate it. Oh wait, they do.

I'm with you. Me and my brother just cancelled our pre-orders. We need to keep a list of the people cancelling.
Also has anyone noticed if you just go around using melee and cloak you're god? I know it was worse in the 360 beta but I'm getting KDRs over 10, this is just ridiculous.
Just got done playing the Crysis multiplayer demo on 'gamer' graphics. A lot of it seemed like it was ripped from CoD, like the kill streaks, class customization, etc. Here's a gameplay video:

Ugh I managed to make a account on MyCrysis but i can't login neither at the website or game, i even got a email about activating it. It keeps saying wrong username/password
Am I the only one that abuses cryvision? I just don't stand playing without using it every few seconds (because energy of my suit has to recharge).
any ways to get it to work yet?
As seen on SPUF

Nanovision?
Pretty handy for finding those guys who only move while cloaked.
Okay. So I just played 2 games of Crysis MP demo and came back, just to tell you that...
...Crysis 2 MP is massive SHIT. It's incredible how it tries to copy... wait.. no... how it tries to CLONE CoD and even fails doing that. You don't even need to use nanosuit here, it's completely useless.
And minus nanosuit, what has Crysis 2 MP to offer? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. (eye-candy doesn't count)
Seriously I felt like I was playing some boring low-budget game, except it had Crysis graphics.
Can't the developers come up with something new, instead of copying the same ideas all over again? I'm pissed off..
EDIT: Yes it is a MAJOR let-down and another idiotic console port. Developers, don't you even dare to ask why is PC piracy so high..
EDIT2: And no I am not a CoD-hater, nor CoD fanboy.
[QUOTE=Chickens!;28365576]Could you please re-read every post you've made in this thread, you look like an idiot.
Also hot-damn i had to re-download the demo due to a corrupt file :sigh:.[/QUOTE]
Because I'm sick of tired of console games ruining PC games? I am not alone in my rage. Sadly, most people just take it. $60 for a lesser game. It's insanity.
Crysis was a PC gamers dream... now it's being dumbed down to a console port.
Commands do work as launch options in Steam
I disabled intro vids with +g_skipIntro=1, so yes they do work
I wonder if I can add in the SSAO and HDR commands too, cant test since I cant log in though.

wait, you did that with the in-steam command line startup thing?
Got it working. Runs great and looks great, although the different settings didn't seem to change anything.
[QUOTE=Portalz117;28367031]wait, you did that with the in-steam command line startup thing?[/QUOTE]
Yeah. I uninstalled the demo and then installed the Steam version because I prefer games through steam. I still cant login but I tried the +g_skipIntro=1 and it worked. Im going to add my graphics config into the launch options and hope for the best.
Oh yay.
Apparently USB headsets don't work with the demo. Awesome.
Just ran the demo again, it ran at like twice the FPS it did before on the same setting. Weird, but cool. Now I can give it a proper thought.
Gameplay:
The gameplay is okay, and it makes you think a bit more than crysis 1's MP seemed to. You have to carefully think about how much energy you want to sacrifice and how you're going to do things within the fraction of a second, which is good and bad. The actual weapons seem a bit crappy though, with the shotgun taking more than 3 hits to kill it seems like it isn't a shotgun.
Graphics:
The graphics are nothing short of amazing, as you'd expect from crytek. The main problem is that the view models are HUGE for the guns, which is a common symptom of consoleitis, but I'll let that slide. Another problem is the motion blur: the only way to have 100% vision is to stand still, otherwise it's like a riptide of blur. The textures are decent, and the particles stood out as sexy to me.
I hate these new suit modes, they should have just kept them the way they were.
It does have a whiff of CoD but honestly I don't think it bares as many similarities as you're all pointing out
Friend downloads crysis 2 multiplayer demo > skips tutorial film > gets totally owned > OH MY GOD THIS IS JUST AN XBOX FAG GAME SUCKS ASS

I really liked it, the only real resemblance to CoD was the leveling system and the unlocks, other than that if felt like its own game. I had fun playing it, the nanosuit allows you to dynamicly move around the levels, and react to situations, and overall the gameplay felt much different than CoD. (with the exceptions of the kill streaks)
[editline]1st March 2011[/editline]
I don't understand how you can say that the nanosuit is completely useless really.
I miss power struggle...
stealth kills irritate me
I was literally a few centimeters out of the range to stealth kill somebody and I press V and it doesn't work, they turn around and pepper me with boolit :saddowns:
OK, I think we need to make a huge feedback somehow for Crytek. Because a lot of people got disappointed in this demo and hopefully, it works out well for retail.
holy fuck I suck at this, but maybe it's because it's more like modern warfare than battlefield 2

don't expect the entire aspect of the game to change by now, it's released in less than 22 days.
I played the demo; (and the beta) the gameplay in general is enjoyable, but it borrows a lot of ideas from "popular mainstream games", which in turn makes Crysis 2 feel nothing like the prequel (Crysis 1) at all.
Also, no graphical adjustments and auto-aim? What the fuck, this is Crysis

Auto Aim's off unless using Pad
They should have put (Gamepad only) or something beside the aim assist option.
Why the hell is the word big censored in chat 0_0?
Other than that, could be good - not sure if they will change anything before release. It's pretty much the same as it was at Eurogamer around 6 months ago.
Just finished downloading, and I'm about to click finish.
I've heard a lot about the account creating being weird, so what's the best way to tackle it so I don't run into problems?
