We must have a fix for this. This is the biggest bug in the whole game.

Bump.

Well, I cracked and decided to do the temp fix to correct the issue. I had to play some Crysis 2. Anyhow, I've been playing just fine for the past couple of hours. Just waiting for the glitch to come back though.

This topic must stay on top because it's an emergency, more than the glitchs in MP, i can't even play SP because of this !

I guess this issue still hasn't been permanently fixed?

I am holding off my 2nd play through as I would like to experience half-decent graphics this time around. The level where you cut the power and have to go into nanovision was a joke; my eyes felt awful afterwards.

The game is commanding good trade-in prices but I would like to get a super soldier play through out if it.

Wow. I can't believe that this still isn't fixed. I've hyped this game through the roof and Crytek as well, now when I'm showing off Crysis on my xbox to friends I get this grain/wavey line glitch. The community has been very patient on this. I mean it's going on three weeks and there's not really information about what is causing the glitch and no information on when the glitch may actually be corrected. This is very frustrating. I preordered this game and had VERY high expectations from Crytek. I mean this game was supposed to really show off what the xbox could do. It was marketed for it's state of the art graphics right? Not MP, not story, not writing, not great audio, but for it's graphics. It's like buying a car that you were promised had a V8 and you got an inline 3 cylinder for crying out loud. At least give us some information on what's going on. I think if this isn't corrected this week that I'm trading this game in and retracting all my hype about it and the company. I mean I've really pushed this game and the company to my friends and now look what's happening. Just fix the graphics bug for goodness sakes.

I agree... If this isn't fixed soon I'm trading it.

I think the SP level, "Gate Keepers" is the culprit of this glitch. I had said earlier that I got rid of the bug doing the cache clearing fix. I was able to start my second go through single-player and play some MP without any problems until I got past Ghoul's apartment and started the "Gate Keepers" level. I have been using nano-vision to check for the bug at the start of every SP/MP game. Upon starting the "Gate Keepers" level the bug rear its ugly head!

I tried to clear cache and reload "Gate Keeper", it's still there!
I tried to clear cache and go straight into MP game and all is fine.
I tried starting from the level after "Gate Keepers" and it's still fine.

Can you guys give it a try and see if you can reproduce what I'm seeing? Maybe this will at least help point the Cry-team into the right direction on where to start looking for a fix.

Lorenso, please, just stop with the "issue is your issue not game issue I have not this issue you have this issue game not has issue".
Your grasp of English is very poor, I understand you wish to assist us here and are trying to be a good little boy and talk with us grown ups but we are not getting it, really.
You coming on here every few pages to say the same thing over and over seems quite obsessive and retarded, does your mother know you are on an advlt forum, conversing (that means "talking"!) with members of the public. Does your psychiatrist know you have access to a computer? (To explain a psychiatrist is a doctor who specializes in psychiatry and is certified in treating mental illness.)

So, be a good boy and let us advlts talk for a while okay ? thanks for trying to help us though we do appreciate it.
...............................................................................................................................................................................

I just want to again confirm I am getting this glitch. I can remove it by the fixes but it returns.

Now Lorenso, remember what I said, okay, no being a bad boy and upsetting your mommy and Doctor by playing on here when you should be in bed... naughty naughty boy. Go put your jammies on and get to sleep its way past your bedtime.

Already traded Crysis 2 in at Ebgames. At least I'll cost EA/Crytek another $59.99 for the used sale instead of someone buying it new. When and if this glitch is ever fixed I will simply get it again through Gamefly. I wanted to support Crytek and thought they'd certainly not let me down. But obviously they're a PC company first and always. Damn shame.

I tried this today and it came back... sux but it was a sound idea, until i tried it. I wont get rid of this game unless they come out and say they cant or wont fix this bug!

Problem is that they'll never admit it if that's the case. They'll let the community find out as it's a missing item in future patches. I hope that isn't the situation but IF they couldn't fix it they won't be directly saying so ever due to a fear of a class-action suit, etc.. which is actually why I'm frightened by the fact that 3 weeks in and they still haven't said that they CAN and WILL fix it. The longer that goes on the more likely it is that this bug will never be fixed. They'll just continue saying that they are looking into it and that patches are incoming, never anything more specific. Time will tell.

Got the grain glitch again at the end of "Lab Rat" mission, so "Gate Keepers" has start with this glitch. Turn off my Xbox and stop playing it in this conditions.

Only one week and I can play Gears of War 3 beta with REAL GOOD graphics and WITHOUT any grain glitch or something.

I'm very annoyed.

PS:Dedicated Servers too.

Time for my routine bump^. Still waiting on the fix Crytek. Game is a bummer without a fix for this.

LOL, I hear you dude, although I don't have this issue.

Add me for the GOW3 beta, my GT is the same as my username.

Crytek, FFS!!!

Your making it VERY hard, to keep supporting/praising you as a company.

The grain-glitch should have been fixed by now. Should have been in a hot-fix 2 days after release. And yet, we have all been VERY patient.

And don't give us that crap, with you looking in too it, or have to wait on microsoft to get a patch out or something. Grow some balls, take care of your fanbase. This is not helping your future releases. I might only be one guy, but if this grain isn't fixed, then I wont buy any more games from you guys, even if you have a big fat Valve logo on the box.!

I never sell my own games, I always keep em. But since Crysis 2 is fairly new, I think I'm gonna try and get some good cash from it. Afterall, I could make an awesome sales-pitch; just use your "Best console graphics ever" that is on the box. And don't mention a grain-glitch that can counter that.

Oh well...

I'm giving it till the end of the week, if there is still no patch I'll just sell it and buy it back when it is cheap. Right now the trade in value for Crysis 2 could help drastically to buy Portal 2 for me, so why wait for them to deliver a patch that should have been sorted ages ago. What is worst is the lack of feedback; no useful updates, no tweets about progress or the reason it may be difficult to solve, nothing of the sort that could help to provide a timeframe for the fix, for all I know I could return to this thread months down the line to still find out that there is no patch.

I thought I was going crazy there for a while. I hope a fix will come out soon

Crytek, turn back on pc, maybe with a 3000€\$ pc you can get rid of this glitch easily.

The screen "Achieved with Cryengine 3" makes me laugh: what is achieved with cryengine? an horrible grain filter on whole screen?

^bump:(

To be honest, i dont see this being addressed. Its like when halo reach came out with the horrible motion blur. Even in cutscenes. Its being used to keep the framerate high. Just like halo reach, its something you will need to get used to.

Im running it on a 1080p 40" panasonic g20. With contrast of 5m to 1. And a refresh rate of 600hz. Its a universal problem with no bearing on tv settings.

I also dont have this issue..

It doesn't affect FPS at all. I can load every map with mission replay and play any mission without the glitch. If I play continuously from the beginning and eventually run into the glitch all it does is make things ugly. Doesn't change FPS at all. It is a game bug that needs to be fixed and HAS to be addressed. PS3 and PC versions do not suffer from this glitch.
