Some modes already a ghost town !?

Extraction to name one is a 15 min wait to start a game with 6 players ?! Man at this rate another month you will be lucky to TDM. Crytek you may want to step up your efforts to getting this game up to par . The lag alone is making peeps bail on your game at a alarming rate. Peace Drake out

I've never been able to get a game of anything other than TIA, IA and Crash Site. But I would never wait more than 5 mins to get into a game, so it may be possible. Any game that takes that long to get into, I will have 1 red bar guaranteed

Yeah, I was level 11 when I returned the game for a full refund. The main reason I returned the game was not because of the unfinished state of affairs. I realized that I could not put up the drag of playing brainless deathmatches for countless hours until I would unlock modes that required some strategy.

Sorry man, if the game progress did not feel like torture, I would have played the advanced game modes with you.

Well two things to consider here, first is that the game attracted all the cod crowd inniially , and thus we had a gazillion whining idiots in here from day one, who have now returned to cod, praise the lord!!! Second , this is th bad news , they only ever played team death match anyway, but along with them, many others abandoning the game. I said it would happen , but wasn't aware it would happen this quick.
The mp will is better suited to team death match rather than tactical team games tbh, and the tactical crowd probably gone back to bc2.
I've not really played the mp so much due to issues, but I think I'll trade too, as it's going to die big time, just like what's happening with kz3. Ppl won't wait forever for patches unless it's cod it seems.

Shame as I thought this might be fun

Well one thing for sure I dont care what kind of pre order deals that they offer on games ( $10 credit on Amazon the reason I pre ordered game in the first place ) . Im done buying games the day or even week upon release. Even the upcoming BRINK Ill will wait to read up on forums see how the game really is . You will find good HONEST REVIEWS on the forums .... Going to finish up single player then shelve this game ....Maybe pop it in next month to see IF CRYTEK even fixed half the issues . Wont hold my breath Peace Drake out

i am exactly the same. only thing that could change my mind is Bf3, as i know they have dedi servers and will be guaranteed crowd there long term. brink etc can all wait, i think ill stick to halo reach and bc2 till bf3 comes out personally.

Extraction is a no go for me, only played it twice. Capture the relay is hit and miss.

Yeah, some modes have as much life as a graveyard which is annoying as I like to complete my skills.

Killzone 3 attracted the CoD crowd initially as well due to it being the ultimate camping, spawn raping game. Seems they've already gone back to CoD as well going on the fact Killzone 3 is already pretty dead online.

EDIT: Sorry for the double post.

didnt i kinda already state that??

u seem to think im under some illusion about kz3 , when in reality im thinking of trading them both in today, as im f***d off with both of them. Only difference is that, theres a few more ppl playing the strategic games on kz3 and the hit detection and lag isnt as bad as in crysis 2, but im literally convinced they both will have communities smaller than mw2 and mw in less than a month. They both could and should have been great fps with strong crowds for next year or two, but instead, they will be coasters soon enough

Crysis 2 will start to falter online (perhaps it already is) if Crytek don't patch what people want. As for Killzone... thought that was already a coaster (I kid, I kid).

But yeah, of course they'll have comminities smaller than MW. Only CoD can topple CoD. That series is like Superman compared to others... invulnerable to attacks (though the Kryptonite in this case will hopefully be Activision milking it dry like Guitar Hero).

I think theyve missed their opportunity tbh. most ppl wont stick around if theres issues, they just return back to cod and bc2 etc. To establish a new ip within a well saturated market, u have to go in strong, just look at homefront. sold well, but ppl just couldnt be bothered and traded it in within no time, due to the issues.

I actually dont want to get rid of this game, but im not sure how strong community will be, and just think whats point keeping it, if its a struggle to get games online. i can still get great price for it trade (more than i paid), and i can get rid of kz3 when i finish the sp, and have £52 in my pocket for new games. I could even pick up mw2 again and be guaranteed games online for my quick thrills(lets be honest crysis2 plays kinda like cod online anyway) and still have enough left for bf3 after, plus i got halo reach and bc2 in meantime.

I just really dont know what to think about this mp any more. I think its days have come and gone already. there will be a small group of ppl playing for a while, but think beyond that, its dead.

Mw2 is what 3-4 years old now later this year, mw1 is older than time itself, but u can still get games online. I detest activision, and black ops was woeful on ps3 and 360 imo, and wold glady watch the series die now, but for crysis to have a community less than mw2 already is embarrassing, and says a lot about the online structure of the game that u can get games online with a smaller community years later, and still be relatively lag free

They really missed a great opportunity here imo

yeah i do really want to like this game i just find it so frustrating. Think im around level 33 at the min but im in no rush ill give it ago again after we get a patch that actually works. I consider myself a good fps player its just so hard to play a game when it seems like every variable is against you. When i get host and i see how the game could be then i still have hope but until then its on my shelf.

Not to worry though i just pick up parasite eve the 3rd birthday for my psp so that should keep me busy until then, plus i heard they just patched homefront. Havent had chance to try it yet because i lent it to my mate after yet again getting frustrated with problems like constant ps3 freezing. Homefronts a pretty fun game though if you can over look how the butchered the unreal engine

Was never that interested in Homefront TBH, but then when its problems were apparant and it garnered a lot of rage from gamers that killed any chance I had of taking a look.

I'm not about to bother with a game that locks my console up at random anyway.

well black ops was exactly the same and so does crysis sometimes which got me wondering something is going on recently, maybe the ps3 anti hacking update. What do you think?, its seems very frequent recently to frequent to be a coincidence and never happened in mw2 or battlefield

I guess a lot of people don't enjoy playing an interactive slide show. This game chokes along at 15-20 frames per second, making it almost unbearable to play. And the textures are muddy on top of that. This game would easily, EASILY be the best shooter in the last ten years if it played at a decent framerate and had decent textures. But right now the game is a fail. It can still be fun every once in a while when I need a break from COD, Killzone 3 and Homefront, but the crappy framerate and textures just make it more frustrating than fun. And I'm sorry to hear that Classic mode is empty. That was one of the few things that motivated me to play and rank up.
