Absolutely, one of the most pathetic online multiplayer games I have ever played.

Please explain to me how after POURING bullets into an enemy (EVERY SINGLE ONE accompanied by a hash-mark to denote a successful hit) that enemy can simply turn around and shoot me with three shots for the kill. WITH THE SAME WEAPON I USED.

The fact that in over 50 games, I have yet to get a connection over 2 bars has something to do with it. No other game has these problems.

Crytek. Electronic Arts. You are a joke. Your stock is falling for a reason. You make **** games.

Do us a favor and go jump off a cliff.

Your gonna bash a game thats been out for a day. Ever heard of a thing called patches? Obviously not..they'll release patches to fix connectivity issues. Although I've had absolutely no problems..but eh. That's just me.

And 1: Your probably sprinting, stealthing 24/7 so your energy bar is being depleted which means you get one shotted basically. This isn't a rush-in game. Go back to CoD if thats what you want.

1. I have no connection issues with the 360 version (PC version is another issue...well based on the MP demo for the PC)
2. Head shots? Ever heared of them.
3. If you have "Over 50 games" you are bound to have one thats worse then this.... (Mostly because THIS GAME IS AWESOME)

LMAO, nobody is going to be playing this piece of **** game in a few months. Such trash.

And are you people **** retarded? You really think the issues I'm describing as the result of not aiming for the head, or down the sites, or using abilities, or not letting my charge bar get all the way down?

No. I know how to play videogames. I know how to play shooters.

This is the **** multiplayer shooter I've played in years.

4 words.. Get a better connection. I have 7 down, 1 up, and I don't have issues.

Yea this kid has no idea what he is talking about.

XBL has not seen the stand-by glitch since the 180.....it has not been an issue with the 360. And to just blow off this assumption on the first day this game is released is pretty comical, when everyone is complaining about lag/host issues. When the community is complaining.....about lag or host......I can assure you that people aren't cheating or stand-by glitching.....the game was just release and can't handle the traffic....typical EA release...hopefully they patch it and listen to the community...if not, the game dies out. Simple.

Don't come on the community forums complaining that people are stand by glitching.....that is just comical.

You got to be kidding me? you and the other person are saying and are so sure that the xbox 360 DOES NOT allow you to host a game or connect to one, screw up your internet connection one way or another, and use it as an advantage to cheat in a game? You guys absolutely do not have a clue about networking. By the way people do cheat daily in all HALO games on the xbox 360 using this cheat all the time. It can also be used in other games including crysis 2 online. Yes LAG and first day released games are going to experience issues online due to bandwidth and latency problems. Although the "cheaters" those who defend the idea get so frustrated and defensive and have to call names and say **** to make themselves feel better that they do it in their responses in a forum.

Thats the comical part. Also if you knew how to read, I AM not a kid! Also I know cheaters in a game when I see one, one second they are in front of you, next second they are half way across the map or behind you killing you when you thought you killed them. So I posted my experience with the game online and people with no life have to come up with these crazy notations to make themself feel better. What is this world coming to...

To all the people telling OP he svcks/made himself look like an idiot. Indeed he did, by not anticipating that the only people who would reply to his problem would be trolls and fanbois.

Here is a link to a site who sells lag devices. Read the fine print on what lag cheating does, PEOPLE on XBL do it all the time!

I love the retards who say people do not do that and it does not work. They are the ones who cannot admit they do it and thats the only way they can play an online game, by cheating!

That is my gripe and the reason I am agreeing with the first person who started this thread, I am seeing the issues he sees and I know what it is besides latency and bandwidth issues people are using it for their advantage to cheat and get all the kills, not die, get the promotions, exp, etc.

Truth of the matter is, it makes playing multiplayer in any game besides crysis 2 not fun!

LMAO, nobody is going to be playing this piece of **** game in a few months. Such trash.

And are you people **** retarded? You really think the issues I'm describing as the result of not aiming for the head, or down the sites, or using abilities, or not letting my charge bar get all the way down?

So you don't like it. Don't play it. That's all that you need to do. Vehemently defending yourself on a forum seems a little counterproductive at this point.

Also with all due respect, saying this is the **** multiplayer shooter you've played in years..... I don't know if I'd agree with that., I played Medal of Honor the first week it was out. Now that was a downward spiral of mediocrity.

how about you shoot him in the face you noob....like he does to you!

WTF? Only reason people rant is because they're getting raqed in the ass.
I hope you do know that if your stealth mode is on, you lose all your energy (shield) if you shoot or get shot and you'll go down in perhaps....2 bullets or so. Stop run-n-gunning, camping, sniping, spraying, or what ever you're doing and play like you're playing Crysis. It's its own game ****.

packet loss is an issue with your ISP not the game, if your having trouble connecting with higher bars its probably because of your NAT type, and even so your probably going up against people not only in armor mode, but with the "armor enhance" perk, dont b*tch about the game if your the only one failing at it

50 down, 5 up.

Perfect connection to every other game.

Every other game, not coded by retards.

Crysis 2 = filth.

ive made top player the last 3 games in a row, im 15 cant afford "lag switches" and above that have the common decency to play it how it was meant to be played, FYI there has allready been a patch that probably fixed most lag problems. i suggest finishing the ENTIRE campaign first to get a feel of the game before you troll on a forum where most of your replies have only positive thing to say about the game and only negative things to say about you, and i agree that every big-budget multiplayer game is glitchy and sketchy ON-RELEASE-DAY. besides, CryTek, and the crysis series specifically, has been known for the CAMPAIGN, not as much the multiplayer, but even so this multiplayer portion of the game is much better than COD for me, and in my opinion has a perfect balance between campaign and multiplayer, riveting storyline, fits together perfectly with crysis and crysis Warhead, and by far, for me atleast, has much less lag then call of duty or Halo.
quit spouting your ridiculously repetitive opinion as if it where fact because when i comes right down to it your just a troller with your thumb up your ass preaching to the wrong crowd

quick complaining because you are not good at the game... check your connection... best things to do is to go buy a high end router, modem docsis 3.0, and CAT 6 cables.... and make change your play style... if none of this helps well you are not good at this game and should go back to playing Hannah Montana on the Wii

Everyone just leave this sad troll to crawl back under his damp bridge. He's not accepting any of the generous opinions a few members have posted. Just be grateful that there is one less annoying person on this outstanding game with us. As the OP said, no one will be playing this game in a few months, well... that's completely wrong. As for myself and countless of chievowhores, we will be Crysis 2 for at least 6 months to accomplish that 6 month achievement. Hopefully this thread will die out.

LMAO, that six month achievement is there because Crytek and EA knows nobody would play this **** in 6 months if it weren't.

Hey you know what's fun? Tossing a grenade a sombody and unloading a clip into them (ever shot accompanied by a hash-mark), only for them to turn around a kill you in 3 shots with a sub-machine gun at medium range.

Crytek should really stop letting autistic children code and balance their games for them.

all i got from the op was "i svck, i svck, i svck, i svck....same weapons...i svck, i svck i svck, and over 50 games....i svck some more" lol just saying

LOL. That's exactly what I got from reading it.

When I saw "This game is filth", I thought it was going to be a thread on how much you liked the game. haha

have you considered that just maybe theres a possibility that you just svck?

I did...until I just equipped the submachine gun and started spray-and-praying people at every range.

Boosted my K/D to about 1.6 or so.

Great game if you like sloppy, spray-and-pray, no-skill ****.

Dude go play COD or Halo then. Your entitled to your opinion, you expressed it, now dont come back to this forum. It only has been out for two days---- there will be patches. This game is filth wawawawawawawa

I know plenty about networking....enough actually that I don't fire off accusing people of cheating the first day the game comes out.

I play all the halo games....I was victim of the H2 Stand-by glitch...I never said it didn't exist....I haven't seen it at all on the 360 to be honest with you....and if I have, the people that do it svck....because I don't have a problem playing these games at a high level. So I don't know what to tell you. And if I have a problem, I leave the game and find another.....not go on the forum and start accusing people of cheating.

I have played H3, COD.....any other game you want to throw out there and I am sorry but I just don't see the problem you experience.

And by the way.....you wouldn't have been portrayed as a child if you handled the situation like an advlt and didn't come on here barking up that people are cheating.

Take it easy, I am not attacking you.....just calmly telling you that I think you are overracting to the lag/host issues on Crytek/EA side.....I know plenty about Networking and run my own business....I know enough that kinks need to be worked out when a huge population of people jump online for the first time.....if you were such an expert in networking....you would have ruled that out prior to accusing people of cheating.

Just sayin......

I've already sold the game and gleefully robbed EA of $60 they would have received from a new game sale.

However, it is important that this thread stay near the top of the forums, so that unsuspecting consumers who look to these forums for information of the game are made aware of it's **** quality.

Worst melee in all of FPS? Check.

Terrible connections despite an amazing connection that gives no problem in any other game? Check.

Weapons that inconsistent and hit detection that at best could be described as '**** RETARDED'? Check.

One of the worst games of the year. Front-runner for that award. Disappointing and terrible.

People that use armor = aim for their head, even if u have armor on a sniper can kill you with one bullet to the head.

Your such an #%^*?!￥ bad kid. Go back to your little kiddy games. I can go around in instant action and go 25 kills and 5 deaths and you can't even get one kill. Youre probably shooting at a wall thinking it's a person using their active camo.
