Because all i see day in and day out is nit picking whiny gamers (Most likely the gamester's ) and not enough of the true hardcoe gamers out there nowadays.

(Some have pointed this out)

1. If you don't like it move on to the next

2. If your frustrated at the lag like some others have either deal with it or wait like a true fan for the patch and or just play something else

3. Many brush over the fact that cod and halo's new installments are not without the same problems like bad spawning, lag Head shot's,lag kills and so many others thing's (Played both).

4. For those having trouble playing this game first of all you don't svck but you need to understand that this is not like other game's and of course it's not ground breaking but it's refreshing and there's a pretty high learning curve for the casual gamer and for gamers that are fixed in a cod mentality(Which is a bad route to go in this game)


5. If the forum mods are not responding well... don't come to forums because there are other things in life so don't spam the forums with crap and rage quits (Yea i said it).


6. How long has this game been out people? not that long right so give it a rest will yea and chill on your crouch.


7. There are things that do need to be iron out but don't bash a game to where someone that wants to buy it or wants to check it out is turned away by some douche being a troll (Some people are stupid enough to actually listen to them but more then likely there pretty bias ) and so that person is then to busy looking for every single problem like some perfectionist and not playing crysis or any other game to simple enjoy it.

8. No more Exaggeration i mean come on?

9. Death to all Gaming Trolls!! (Random i Know)

10. Never listen to anyone talking trash about a game you have not played yet and check it out yourself so you as gamer can give your opinion not on a forum but to yourself on if you like it or not.

(My Question to you)

Do you think gamers are getting more picky and like to compare titles a lot more now then ever?

DISCLAIMER This is not a thread about biching about anti biching about biches.

Slowpoke is sloooow.

Sorry dude, but technically gaming has been dead since it was totally acceptable and 100% profitable for a company like Activision to come along and release a game like CoD once EVERY years with nothing but slightly tweaked game play and prettier skins on all the weapons that act like they always have.

If you don't remember playing the Quake when they were new you likely only barely even know what gaming when it was alive.

The problem lies with the developers in my eyes.

There seems to be an abundance of titles that require patches lately, which means that certain issues have been undetected in testing or worse left till later.

How many titles have you bought recently that have an update on the day of release? For me it is practically every big title that is released.

I cant remember lots of patches or updates on the original xbox or the PS2 and lots of developers do not seem to do beta tests as much anymore, which means that when we purchase a product which we are lead to believe is COMPLETE, invariably it is not.

So I do not think the gaming generation has changed, i think the developers have changed and are releasing products that are in essence incomplete.

Man i remember playing the hell out of quake everyday when it came out like goof ball and people where playing it to have a large amount of hardcoe fun and it's really sad seeing where we are nowadays with gamers and downright **** fps games coming out daily and then you got people down right bashing the hell out of a game like crysis just because they think it's a lag fest and praise other games like they have no issue's at all which leads to outside people looking in to second guess a lot more now .

QWTF baby. Best FPS ever made hands down

I'm not sure about the entire generation but most forums I see, and especially this one, the majority of posts are negative.
I guess it is with all things, you hear the complaints the loudest and the satisfied people just play on and don't even visit the site to post their appreciation. This can be a problem because sometimes the vocal minority get what
they want and the game goes to hell when devs cave nerf or buff or change things for this group. Not saying the game or all games are perfect but I have seen it happen, Gears of War is a prime example.
Perhaps there should be an appreciation sticky thread for those who like the game. I personally would post there as I do not suffer from the majority of the issues that are repeatedly raised here, or I may to some degree but do not exaggerate or rant and rave about them.
I see a lot of posts about lag but fortunately for me the majority (like 90%) of my games are all green, the rest yellow and I'd say less that 1% red and that is only if I get migrated to a foreign host (US or EU). Perhaps it is because I am in Australia and am nearly always matched with my region (AU or NZ) which I fantastic and greatly appreciated.
I'd like to see the community manager/s either merge more existing threads about the same / similar issues and or ban / lock the more pointless ones that just are solely about how terrible the game is and are just a pointless venting without asking questions or offering opinion on resolution or fixes.

Because all i see day in and day out is nit picking whiny gamers (Most likely the gamester's ) and not enough of the true hardcoe gamers out there nowadays.

DISCLAIMER This is not a thread about biching about anti biching about biches.

If anything, this generation is LESS picky. Its only those who have been part of older generations where games were good. Now everyone seems to be content with the next run of the mill COD/COD clone every 6 months, where the game is literally the same each time with a new box.

Your post is a joke. People cant complain about lag? "wait like a true fan for a patch"? ROFL. Sorry, but thats just the most retarded thing ive read in the last few days. Yep, keep defending **** games and being perfectly fine with a game being barely playable after 2 weeks post-release. Sounds like a great idea, especially when i payed 60 bucks on day 1 for this turd.

Perhaps people just think that their ￡40 should get them a completed, fully functioning game instead of what is essentially a continuing online Beta test?

I dont know, but I certainly think my ￡40 should buy me a game where the enemies dont spin around on the spot indefinately... A game that doesnt lock up if you accept an invite whilst loading a level etc.

This will be a great game when its finished.

But still, its Cryteks first console game, and it has had a simultanious world wide, multiformat release... I would imagine the staff are already working overtime to fix the issues on its 3 formats.

Far are the days when any 286 could play a FPS like Doom and a simple IDKFA and IDDQD did the trick. If publishers are claiming to make the next-best-thing and publicize it all over the place, it's normal that when disappointment comes the gamers become picky. Nowadays out of every hundred games that come out probably only one or two leave a lasting impression. It's quite different from a time when Spectrum ruled the world, games took 30 minutes or so to load and playing a stick to hit a ball was wonderful. And games lasted more, i.e., had bigger replay value mostly because there were less games around and the merchandising was not a well oiled machine as it is today. People shared floppies or cassettes. You heard about a game from your friends and went to the local store to make copies out of games they sold there.

The problem lies with the developers in my eyes.

There seems to be an abundance of titles that require patches lately, which means that certain issues have been undetected in testing or worse left till later.

How many titles have you bought recently that have an update on the day of release? For me it is practically every big title that is released.

So I do not think the gaming generation has changed, i think the developers have changed and are releasing products that are in essence incomplete.

the simple fact is: time is money.

everything costs more then it ever has these days, there are far too many people in the world and everyone is greedy.

game developers want there game out as quick as possible but also give it enough time for people to enjoy it. There is a very fine line between both and most company's meet the first criteria and give up on the second, after all its IMPOSSIBLE to make a game everyone enjoys.

yes most games come with an update, half of which YOU have no idea what they are for, they could be simple things that dont change the game at all or some last minute bug fixes they couldn't get out before release, you argue 'why release an unfinished game' well why not if they can patch it in ready for people to play? it takes months to get the final game ready onto disk's and packaged ready for sale so in that time why not do some last minute bug fixes ready for when people put their game in. No harm done and it keeps the game released on schedule. Now DLC is another thing entirely and personally i wont buy a game if i know a month later there will be a 'needed' DLC like new maps or somthing that was clearly ready to be put into the game on release but they held back so they could charge for it, imo not many games do this and the ones that do have very low expectation's when it comes to sales.

The only real thing wrong with EVERY online game is the people who play it. A very select few want to play the game to enjoy it whether they win or lose and the vast majority just want to play to win and will do anything to make that happen. And maybe thats partly the developer's fault for tempting them with new armour or weapons when they reach higher ranks. Personally i dont see a fix in this problem and we will just have to manage and add people who play fair and have fun to our 'preferred player' list on xbl and hope for the best.

Because all i see day in and day out is nit picking whiny gamers (Most likely the gamester's ) and not enough of the true hardcoe gamers out there nowadays.

i agree with you that a game of this standard shouldn't have the lag it does i also agree with the OP, wait for it to be fixed.

EVERY game has a deadline, crysis 2 had a whole team working on just the multiplayer and unfortunately didnt have enought time to fix the 'lag'. imo it works great online, the only real downside is the lag which for me (i seem to be the only one ) was MUCH MUCH worse on the demo.

The problem is these days gamers such as yourself expect too much, you want the best graphics, well balanced game with no lag. Crysis bit the bullet and made one of the best looking games on 360 and in doing so made it laggy, clearly not intentional but im sure it was somthing they knew might happen when they started making the game for consoles, they took a chance and sacrificed a whole lot from crysis 1 to make this game available to console players and unfortuantly that causes drawbacks such as this lag. I hope it gets fixed i really do, but my only advice is dont expect so much, its people like you that are never satisfied with a game which makes company's HAVE to take chances like this and then get slated by the very same people that made them do it.

It's not just with gaming for this generation, it's just about anything. Nothing is ever good enough and this younger generation wants everything done their way or no way, and if it's not their way... be prepared to hear a clusterphucked sh*tstorm of crying. Just saying...

I only read the first post but I will ad this.

If you don't like the lag move on to PC multiplayer gaming. Consoles don't have dedicated multiplayer servers, there will always be latency issues.

I agree with everyone expect zergrush for being a douche about his post where did i ever say specifically that "People can't complain about the lag".I have no problem with people complaining about lag in any game because i encounter lag on a number of games on console's but you should know as a player of games that lag is going to be a factor on any large scale game like crysis that was a pc game first and now a console game so you should understand that with a great game like crysis 2 with all the pretty visual and layouts that multiplayer is going to have some problems which is not that big of a deal comparing to what other people are getting and going though with other half assed online games i wish not to mention.


So no i have no problem with people getting mad at the lag there getting but really could you not exaggerate on the lag problem you as a individual player are experiencing and making it seem like crysis 2 has the worst lag in the history of gaming which is pretty ridiculous.

oh and kept this in mind


"I only read the first post but I will ad this.

Forsaken X



PS Thank you guys for keeping this thread respectable and writing well thought posts(Expect Zergrush)

I completely agree with the OP, it is getting so tiring reading these forums nowadays, never used to be like this.

For those of you getting so worked up about lag, I would recommend just giving up on gaming, or as someone else said, get yourself a pc. If you are connecting and communicating with people with **** connections, then you will get lag, and there is nothing the game can do about that.

To the guy claiming this game is a turd - just leave it, go outside and go for a run or something. If you think this game is as bad as you describe, then you are going to be very disapointed for a long time to come.

Life is too short to get so worked up and down right angry over a GAME.

or we could settle for a game that everyone gives up on, and could only get better then just ignore everything in our own little worlds....

Developers are aiming for maximum profits in the fastest time possible, this has consequences.

Yeah that works until the market falls out from "NO ONE LISTENING" I imagine to some extension they are or have people paid to sive through the ****. I know we all love to bich but the thing is, all of it comes for a reason, ignoring them all and placing them under invalid and non resourceful will only hurt their audience and may pull the game in different ways that make it accustomed to a wider casual audience. Or they could just fix as much as they can and address their fan base.... and realise what the consumer is complaining about isn’t ignorant and non-just but true, and further invest in making a better experience especially because their new to the FPS genre with this game. Many other better games notably Halo which this game takes a lot from have done it better. So don’t paint everyone with the same brush please Crytek.

Further investing in who takes the time to give legitimate feedback (that all fall under the same category) I think will have better returns then a quick and easy out of maximum profits in the fastest time possible.

i THINK....IDK

1. If you don't like it move on to the next

DISCLAIMER This is not a thread about biching about anti biching about biches.

If you buy a car and its doors are not closing properly, it turns out on the road without a reason and is missing a seat................. just buy another one

Anybody saying gaming is dead is dumb. There are bad games now, there were bad games back whenever you think the 'glory days' were, and there will always be bad games. But this doesn't make the awesome gems of gaming any less bright. You keep telling yourself 007 was the pinnacle of FPS, I'll go play Bulletstorm. You're the one missing out

You two are way off topic here first Bullet storm is a horrible game with nothing going for at all other then **** jokes and arcade skill game play which gets old really fast and frankly if i had an N64 still i would be playing 007 next to playing crysis 2 and other games better then bullet storm anytime but that's my opinion .(Oh so if am dumb then what are you?)

You can't compare games and cars together, one is for enjoyment on your free time and the other if your not a street racer is to get from point a to point b so whats your point?

Ill break it down -

PC games had everything (single player,multiplayer,mods ,dedicated servers,supportive community and devs)

Now-

Short campaigns,Multiplayer that focuses on rank and xp than Teamwork,Mods removed and turned into DLC packs (re-skins and maps),Dedicated servers nearly eradicated,which all results in negative thought train throughout forums and the devs avoid.

Nicely put i guess we have to wait for the next system to figure all that out hopefully (Crosses Finger's)

I cant remember lots of patches or updates on the original xbox or the PS2


I'm sorry but i wasn't even aware this was possible.

Because it was not possible.
