I like the hypocrisy in this thread.
Honestly I do not like the new Series of Crytek but this is seriously bad and I hope that they will manage fine.

[QUOTE=postmanX3;28001089]See, this is why we can't have nice things.
Damn pirates.[/QUOTE]
Yeah sure the pirates are to blame. Dumb.
And people say why we don't get good pc games?
I will not spoil it for myself by pirating it. I will buy it on its official release.
I'll still buy it.
I am going to buy the finished version.
Crytek deserve my money.
[QUOTE=BloodYScar;28004072]Yeah sure the pirates are to blame. Dumb.[/QUOTE]
Well what group of people are spreading it?
From what I hear it is missing fucktons of textures, crashes a lot and sometimes doesn't even start. Anyone who wants to play this game will buy it.
This leak inspired me to get the full version if I have the cash at release. I respect Crytek. I'm interested in playing the game and I will but I also want them to know that just because it is pirated doesn't mean no one will take it.

And I know a lot of people who have it working stable minus a few loading problems and subtext.
By crashing a lot I meant when loading, not while playing the actual game.
Still getting it when it's released!
Seriously man! I was looking forward to Crysis 2 and Crytek. Who the hell do they think they are for leaking this video game?

What if this was a sabotage by Activision?
This is sad,
Alot of games arrent worth the 50-60€ they ask for it and therefore get piratted.
This is one of them that is worth it tough.
[QUOTE=Ninx;28003167]Typical, they put the blame on "PC piracy" and not on the careless individual who allowed the game to be leaked in the first place.[/QUOTE]
The game also leaked for the Xbox if I'm not mistaken BUT HEY, NOO, the PC pirates leaked it by mind-controlling some Crytek employee, we are that much of a wizards.
EA is truly pathetic, fuck them. It's a shame Crytek suffers the most from this.

why is ea pathetic
[QUOTE=cecilbdemodded;28002825]EA are idiots worrying about people playing an unfinished build. Just consider it a demo and move on. Let's be honest, no one is going to not buy the game because the unfinished build turned them off, they weren't going to pay for it anyways.[/QUOTE]
Well, since you can play through the entire game...
[QUOTE=Nathax;28004684]why is ea pathetic[/QUOTE]
$60 price tags on PC Games, blaming PC piracy for everything including leaks??1 fucking up of several sports games on the PC, among other things.
Did you even read the OP ? that's the daily piracy-blaming for EA.
[QUOTE=Ninx;28003167]Typical, they put the blame on "PC piracy" and not on the careless individual who allowed the game to be leaked in the first place.[/QUOTE]
But you know, the community can not download it even when its leaked. Its called self-restraint. Its both the leaker and the gamers' faults.

Off course someone will download it, do you think the world is full of angels capable of resisting the temptation of taking a peek ? It wouldn't fucking happen if they had proper security in the first place, blaming the PC community for a leak on two platforms is pointless but hey, they're masters at doing that.
And Blaming piracy for poor sales makes no sense whatsoever, the game would be available on any torrent site a few hours after the release, wouldn't it ? Whoever liked this will buy it no matter what, the quality of the product will be the only one to blame. If this is really good like they claim it to be, it WILL be a success.
[QUOTE=Kylel999;28001315]Not at all. You're only a thief if you illegally download it, never paying anything for it, and keep it. If you download it, try it, don't like it, and uninstall it, it's fine. If you download it, try it, like it, uninstall it, then righteously purchase it, it's also fine.
This is all speaking morally, anyway.[/QUOTE]
Pirates aren't thieves fullstop
[QUOTE=Rosek;28001500]This is totally the fault of pirates for leaking an internal copy.
Plus you do realise a large number of pirates tend to buy a game if it isn't a piece of shit (Like MW2 for example)
And quite often on cracks it says if you like the game buy it to support the developer.

A large number of FPers are attention seeking kids, believe me they care.[/QUOTE]
agree - if you look on sites.. it says on 80% - LIKE THIS GAME? WANT MORE? SUPPORT THE DEV BY BUYING THE GAME! - I DID! i did it with bf2 and freelancer - i loved them so much
This game is one of the very few games I am going to purchase on release day.
Why can't we do both?
I think I just got converted and won't be torrenting any more games
Weird thought here. During Crysis' 2's devolpment, the CEO, lead devolper and all have all been saying "We're going to show COD how it's done" and generally boasting about the game.
Mabye they had a final look at the game, said "Hey the game doesn't look that good" and came up with the bizzare scheme of leaking the early build, so that if the game flops or doesn't get a good score etc, they have a scapegoat to blame.
"Well in my opinion, the game would have done much better if it weren't for that early leak"
When the HL2 beta leaked, people in the Valve office were qouted as "wondering if the company was going to go under". So the whole leaking being serious thing is already the status qou.
Anyways it was just a weird thought. I've been a fan of Crytek since Far Cry and plan to buy Crysis 2 no matter what.
I didn't download it but I had a try over at my friends place and even this unfinished build blows cod out of the water, they had no reason to leak it. And I'm sure as hell gonna be buying it.
