Crysis 2 - Games - Facepunch Forum

Downloaded the non-Steam version of the MP beta to patch it to 1.2 and finally play the fucking thing. After patching it and getting to the login screen, fucking network connection problems. Fuck you Crytek.

[QUOTE=BloodYScar;28526874]Someone from Crytek just confirmed over twitter that there will be no dedicated server files. No Crysis 2 for me[/QUOTE] fuck OFF crytek what the hell

I thought they already confirmed/said that the Dedicated Servers would hafta be rented?

Scratch this off my list. That leaves Brink and Battlefield 3. See ya Crysis 2 thread!

[QUOTE=BloodYScar;28526874]Someone from Crytek just confirmed over twitter that there will be no dedicated server files. No Crysis 2 for me[/QUOTE] So this will just be like BC2 huh? People complaining about it for a couple weeks, then [I]getting over it.[/I]

Great, this makes the editor 1000% useless... You can't use custom maps if you don't have access to the server itself.

[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;28527889]So this will just be like BC2 huh? People complaining about it for a couple weeks, then [I]getting over it.[/I][/QUOTE] Well it makes it impossible to mod anything multiplayer related for one, considering if you can't host your own dedicated server to host and test your mod files on then it's impossible. I imagine it'll have to come with them at some point though... considering the free Cryengine 3 (for indie use) is going to be released over the summer, and that would HAVE to come with Dedi server files and some kind of SDK

[QUOTE=Legend286;28529271]Great, this makes the editor 1000% useless...

There's always SP custom maps, which will probably be awesome considering some of the ones we got for Cry1 (like Vulcano or Airfield).

Um, [url]http://www.mycrysis.com/rsp[/url]

Whats with developers now and keeping dedicated servers as secure as possible? I remember COD4 when IW was not enforcing gameplay persistency due to rankings. BTW guys, BF2 does not have downloadable server files either. You have to rent them to. I don't see people complaining there. Think about it too guys, Crytek did not say the game wont have modding in it. They might allow making custom dedicated server files for mods of the game like in BF2.

I just realized why publishers have developers not release server files publicly. Publishers make "partnerships" with certain server hosting companies. The companies pay the publishers for the license to run the servers. Basically, EA and Activision pull shit like this to pocket as much money as possible. That is why BO has dedicated servers. IWNET did not bring in money. Server hosting companies getting money from renters makes money. That becomes income to the publishers. Capitalism :colbert:

Hmm, to buy this or Shogun 2.. No, not for the fucking tf2 items if thats what you're thinking.

Having the dedicated server files safe also makes it more difficult for pirates, so I can see Crytek being all over that. I see GameArena & Games.On.Net on that list so that announcement means nothing to me, those are the only servers I ever play on anyway.

[QUOTE=certified;28533927] BTW guys, BF2 does not have downloadable server files either. You have to rent them to. I don't see people complaining there. [/QUOTE] Battlefield 2 does allow you to run your own dedicated server. However, if you wanted your server to be ranked, you had to rent it. Is that what you're getting at?

[QUOTE=MagicBurrito;28535046]Hmm, to buy this or Shogun 2.. No, not for the fucking tf2 items if thats what you're thinking.[/QUOTE] Simple answer: Both.

[QUOTE=MagicBurrito;28535046]Hmm, to buy this or Shogun 2.. No, not for the fucking tf2 items if thats what you're thinking.[/QUOTE] I vote this, although the only thing I know about Shogun 2 is that it's set in imperial Japan

Did anyone get an update for Crysis 2 demo via Steam?

[QUOTE=Errorproxy;28535648]Simple answer: Both.[/QUOTE] I only have the money for one or the other, for now.

I decided to try a bit of Crysis Wars again and holy shit, the bunny hopping and VTOL whoring is annoying as fuck. I did however laugh my ass off when I got head shots with my fists while in strength mode. Who needs guns when you can just do this. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQImotdVzpk[/media]

Guess I can forget about that... Can someone link to this twitter, though?

[QUOTE=redBadger;28530715]Crysis 2 Megathread v. Compain about a demo edition[/QUOTE] Yeah you're right instead of complaining over the best current representation of the product everyone should be mindlessly speculating about how it's going to be the greatest game ever and will end world hunger

[QUOTE=MagicBurrito;28538679]I only have the money for one or the other, for now.[/QUOTE] Well, do you like RTS/Strategy or FPS more? Because both are prime examples of it's genre. Whatever genre you like more, go for that game.

I just got level 10. Where the fuck is the last class unlock token? I want to try out being a sniper :saddowns:

I don't want to create a account just to play the multiplayer demo. And it takes so damn long, until it gives some a error. And I just quit the game. How about the single player not have that bullshit.
