Is this fake? Please tell me! : Crysis

Look at this! It's a thread about the Crysis 2 invites. Read the thread (Very short) and look at the image!

Is that fake? It must be (?) ... The keys haven't been released yet! However, it looks VERY convincing. If you watched the Limited Edition trailer, you may noticed as the video was showing off the kits, one of the player's usernames was "That Kid Chris", and it's on that leaderboard!

If the image is gone, I saved it. It's here: http://antani.podzone.net/100_0920.jpg

yeah its real, its what was recorded during the MP demo at GamesCom.

the accounts were shared for the demo so multiple people played on 1 account, those accounts were used by the best players at the demo, and therefor for the short demo, they racked up that few kills

It's real, but it's misleading. If you read the thread, he tries to make it seem like he actually has that on his screen. Fail.

He says:

This is fun I'm in with the crytek / EA staff sitting in the apparently first ever lobby online the leaderboards are erroring as there have never been any games played so far

This looks real. But I don't maybe its a picture off of youtube or something.

Look at the screen, it looks like its on a crt monitor, plus Crytek hasn't released any keys.

» Thu Aug 19, 2010 11:10 pm

looks real, like someone sayed it coulod have beenttaken at any site with the demo, like gamescom !

I really hope the leaderboards are reset on the release date, I'm going for the #1 spot

I don't think so. I've been following Crysis 2 closely for a long time, I've seen most if not all YouTube videos of Crysis 2, especially ones with footage like that. I never saw that image.

It looks real to me.

True. No keys have been released. It MUST be fake... I think. But even if it's on a CRT, what does that tell you? Some people have 360s on a CRT, and besides where did the person get that image to put on the CRT?

Anyone know where that image came from?

Probably a hard drive from a video camera, uploaded onto a computer hard drive and then uploaded to the internet. ;D

This is not a picture from the Tech test we will be hosting, keys HAVE NOT been sent out. All official news will come from gamesas.com first!

» Thu Aug 19, 2010 7:44 pm

In all likeliness, like ShaitanCR mentioned, it is probably a picture taken at the EuroGamer Expo held in London at the start of October - http://expo.eurogamer.net/

We don't have any live servers at the moment, so anyone claiming that they already have access is lying.

my post was deleted? I was just trying to point out the guy needed to be banned :/

There's no need for you to point it out, thanks all the same.

It was removed moreso because you quoted his post, thus negating the purpose of removing his post unless i also remove yours.

Cheers.

It looks real,but nothing it's sure...we wait the beta and then we will can to see if this image it's real or fake

!!!

Just sit calm people. CryTek will announce here at gamesas when the codes will be sendt out.

» Thu Aug 19, 2010 9:11 pm

Can't wait for the key. Funny, i got no XBox, so i can't use it xD. One of my friends at school told me he got a invitation, too. And he have no Xbox, too. lol. I hope we can use that invitation for the Beta, too.

The code people will receive is ONLY for the tect test. No beta.

Soon, my pretties, soon

Also, please try not to re-discuss posts that have been removed as that negates the purpose of removing it in the first place
