Hi everyone,

Thank you for checking out the new gamesas site, our official launch is tomorrow and we are currently in the process of transferring our site to a live environment so you may experience some performance issues during this time.

The Beta key chance is driving a lot of traffic too. I've seen threads on other forums with people registering many accounts with different names and many browser tabs going on multiple computers.

Yea, the beta key signup news has shown up on a lot of sites, thats why its being spammed to death. This is basically my first time in the new forums, even though i've been able to access the site for the last few hours.

Crytek aren't dumb; i'm sure they will see multiple accounts on the same IP, and if they do give to people, it will probs be 1 per IP...
I'll be honest i did try and make another account on this PC, but it didn't work so i tried these login credentials and they worked

Great work guys. Huge respect from a huge Crysis fan

We expected the site to have issues, but it's worth the wait. Site looks fantastic

Cant browse the whole site though, because of the loading speed, i'll be sure to check the whole site tomorrow.
Keep up the good work!

its extremely slow atm looking forward to explore the website tomorrow

It seems to me that all I to do to be considered for a key is to be registered during this time. However, now that I'm registered I can't visit any pages but the discussion pages. Hope this doesn't affect my chances.

Great site though!

Yes, but the people can change the IP, at least those who know how to do it.
CRYTEK staff could come up with some kind of profile (account) uniqueness identification. For example, for each profile (account) , user should provide a serial number of the game, or something like that. But that could hurt the PS3 and XBOX360 owners, because they probably dont have crysis 1 and warhead. I don't know I'm just guessing, it could be something else.

People changing their IP's is a majority, and alot of trouble to go through. Either way; leeches were probably in the latter waves of joining the site....

Do we even count since we registered before it was "officially" open? That's what I wanna know. There's really no way I can think of to stop people from hoarding beta keys by using multiple accounts, other than maybe forcing them to be"Active" for awhile. lol If that was how it worked I wish I didn't lose all my posts from old gamesas.

i guess i jumped the gun a little early then

» Wed Aug 13, 2008 7:33 am

I just joined...nice lay out but is loading website is slow. Other then that...well done!

» Wed Aug 13, 2008 7:38 am

so is this beta key a joke or is it real?

» Wed Aug 13, 2008 7:28 am

I hope people is patient regarding the Beta.

The new site is Great!

» Wed Aug 13, 2008 8:15 am

I'm just glad I was able to get on board earlier... Site is looking great so far!

» Wed Aug 13, 2008 3:35 am

Looking good, but will the account creation spammers really get a better shot at the beta?

» Tue Aug 12, 2008 6:41 pm

Yeah the site is looking really good so far.

People who multi-account should be barred from beta access.

» Tue Aug 12, 2008 8:05 pm

great work

[quote]People who multi-account should be barred from beta access.[/quote] Agreed

» Wed Aug 13, 2008 8:08 am

imo - the first 500 - 100 people should get Beta.

» Tue Aug 12, 2008 5:59 pm

As theres no "edit" button - 1000**
