£35 I might as well have flushed it down the toilet

For months I looked forward to this game. I found myself counting down the days till I could get home and play it. At first glance I thought this game was brilliant gorgeous graphics, handles smoothly, good ranking system. After a little while playing this game I realised soon enough it's garbage. Don't get me wrong you can see the time and effort that has gone into this game and I have no quarms with the singleplayer but the online section is a disgrace. How can you have a game and expect it to have lastability when all that seems to happen is you get thrown into a match and it picks the worst host imaginable I mean WTF everybody can clearly see nowadays that to have a successful game the mp is a key factor I mean look at cod/halo/gow great online great fan base great games. You ripped me off you ripped your hardcoe fans off. You obviously don't give a **** because your pockets are still lined with our money. If you really cared about your fans you would sort this or at least reply to them when they ask you if this will be sorted.

Hes right tho most dont buy FPS anymore for the Single player they want a smooth running MP games. Fun to play Multiplayer experience you can only play campain so many times before you get sick of it. crynet really did screw up they spent way to much time on the graphic's and single player that they missed alot of bugs and major flaws in MP. Most of the problems people are having is due to the poor server host connections. Low conection means your bullets and everything that requires intant data transfer to maintain a smooth flowing game is fck'd. thus u shoot at a guy but beacuse you have a low ass conection the game takes a few milli secondes longer than its should to recive and recognize your are shooting thus the host with full connection is usually in first due to his transfering at max.

This is one of the reasons i took this back.... They should have gone with Dedi servers for this.... If they do a Crysis 3 then they better go Dedi with that

At least you have an actual product for which you can sell on eBay for all of your money back. If you flushed it down the toilet, you'd be left with nothing. Ever think of that? Hmm...

I play it, I love it. But I must admit the multiplayer is far from perfect. If you can't see or understand that... Oh well. It is true none the less. By the way there is a difference between
" complaining " and simply making an observation. I have a really go good record on this game, I have no reason to complain. But what sane person wouldn't want anything they enjoy to be even better. So let people speak their minds, and let the devs sift throught the truth and b.s. Who are you to question anyone in here on their right to speak their minds? To me you sir are the dumbass. Just my humble opinion.

Look at it this way, The P2P in this game handles Half of the Max P2P count of CoD yet it has worse Online connections than CoD.

Why is everyone bagging on the freakin MP? Its a brand new game, give the developers some time to tweak it! Remember how crappy the Black Ops MP was, before the developers messed with it? Jeez...

Ok, raging over.

People are 'bagging on' because this game effectively had 2 multiplayer specific public betas.

I played the main beta extensively and really enjoyed it (and got really good at it). It had problems, but thats what betas are for. As requested by Crytek, people submitted full reports listing bugs and problems.

Then they released the demo.. which I was dismayed to find, had lots of the same issues seen in the beta. Except it seemed a lot more laggy. It was so bad I couldn't stand playing it. Again, as requested people left detailed feedback.

I wasn't going to buy the game on the Xbox until I knew that the problems were fixed, but my friend got me a cheap copy so I took a gamble. Unfortunately all the problems are still there.. which begs the question.. why have betas if you're just going to ignore all the feedback people give you? All the problems people are listing now were present in the beta.. especially hit detection, melee and lag.

If they couldn't fix those problems in the time between the beta and the final release, then I have to question whether they have it in them to fix the problems at all.

ps. I'd also like to add that it's a little disconcerting that at least one of their forum devs hasn't actually played the multiplayer.

Im pretty sure devs use the betas more as an advertising stunt nowadays than what it is really meant for. Also think about it almost everyone who had an xbox downloaded the free betas because it was free why not? So this means that you had more ppl local to you hosting matches therfore creating better connections for everyone as opposed to now where im on the east coast and have to connect to the west coast to get a game. I think that could be a big problem.
I love the campaign and in know way regret buying the game but the mp falls short of the benchmarks out today... especially for smooth fluid gameplay and matchmaking. I do think this game was not really dezigned around mp though. I just hope they figure it out before crysis 3 bc i do beleive this is the fps engine of the future. Just my opinion.

As best I can, I've been checking where people in my matches are located. To my surprise 9/10 of them are fellow players from the UK. The UK is tiny in comparison to the USA (and a lot of European countries) so ping times should be excellent between most UK gamers with a half decent connection. Also, I live in the middle of England so I'm perfectly located.

I say to my surprise, as nearly every match is an absolute lag fest.. so I'm always shocked to find out the people I'm playing against are all fairly local.

When Americans and Canadians get placed into the lobby, the match just falls apart and the only option is to back out. The last match I played tonight (before I turned off my Xbox in frustration), I punched a Canadian 5 times AND shot him, only for me to get dropped by 2 bullets from his pistol.
