This thread is fucked lol.
Every crysis thread is fucked. I don't know why the mods let more be made. They're always about the same shit... a bunch of PC gamers whining about their game a few saying they're actually having fun. We don't need a new thread every week just to start that same cycle over again.
Lonbjerg and wuliheron, mind if i ask, how old are you two?

What crock of shit. Two 580s and a 2600k overclocked will eat this game for breakfast. Anyone who implies otherwise is either on serious drugs or needs to be on serious drugs.
Something must be horribly wrong with their system then, because I have an i5-2500k and a single GTX570. It plays constant 60fps w/ vsync and everything maxed. Even in 3D it rarely drops below 50. Unless they've built an array of 4 monitors chained together something is wrong or they're full of shit.

Ok firstly, who the hell actually expects Microsoft to support or even bother to spend 1 minute of employee time worrying about DX11 on an OS they should have stopped supporting the day Win7 was released. It's 10 years old FFS. Were you all still running win98 back in 2008?
Secondly, if the quality of a game to you comes down to whether some lighting effect is done in DX9 or DX11 then you are seriously missing the point of a game. Games are meant to be fun. Yes it's nice when it looks good and such, why would you get so hung up about the lack of DX11 to the point of declaring those that made the game a team of backstabing swindlers.
Need I also point out, I bet those complaining probably pirate the game anyway.
Ok Crysis 2 doesn't completely rape your system. That's now a bad thing? Huh? A game that is so resource heavy it takes 3 years after it's release for hardware to come out that can run it on max settings is NOT a game that should be praised as some amazing gift to PC gamers.
Honestly, if you don't like the game, don't BUY it. But don't think you represent all other PC gamers out there and that we all give a crap about how technical the graphics engine is. If the game is fun and plays well, it's a good game. End of story.
Millions love Minecraft. Minecraft is PC only. I don't see any minecraft forums lamenting the lack of DX11 do you?

Console 2 is fucked...hence why.
Explain how exactly.
No dx11 support? That hardly means the game is ruined.
It was designed with consoles in mind? Well yeah, as are 90% of games these days. Doesn't mean they can't be good, fun games.
Putting a game down because it's primary development platform wasn't pc just makes you seem like an elitist. And kinda petty...

I'll assume you are being deliberately ironic.
I think sometimes people get so hung up about one particular aspect of a game they forget to actually play and enjoy the game. Crytek has not betrayed anyone. You haven't got any monetary investment in it before it's release, it's their game, you decide if you wish to pay to play or not. If certain aspects turn you off it so much it's simple, don't go near it.
At what resolution? In the single player campaign you never experienced a drop below 60fps, even on the rooftop (escape) scenes (the one that's similar to the multiplayer map).
All of the hyperbole about how easy this game is to run and therefore how Crytek made no effort to make the game visually appealing is 'a crock of shit' (since both of you are so fond of using that term).
And I can agree with you there. In the original Crysis hundreds were whining about how the game is boring and a slideshow and 'optimized poorly' (whatever that means).
I did read the thread. You claimed Crysis 2 was a shooter on rails and that the sandbox has been taken away from you.
I think you need to adjust your definition of what 'on rails' means, otherwise you might find it difficult to enjoy any future games.
I don't really understand how Crysis 2 is so horribly dumbed down in your eyes to the point of it being terrible and yet you played, and presumedly enjoyed Crysis 1. Yes you have lost SOME freedom of movement but I don't really see how a city environment compared to a generic jungle could have possibly avoided that.
It might very well be an AWESOME game for consol owners...but for PC gamers it sucks.
Plain and simple.
:hmm: I think you may be confusing me with somebody else. I've always been of the opinion that Crysis 2 looks fine aside from some low res textures. I never said it was a BAD thing it runs so well on my PC, I built it specifically for this game so I expected it to run well. Don't lump me into that same group that thinks the game looks bad because I've been arguing with them from day 1 already.
Do you have any idea how much of a fanboy you are?
You have said dumbed down about 50 times, crapboxes about 20 and have implied several times that all pc gamers should be offended personally that they had the notion of selling the game to us!
For a supposed 35 year old you sure are getting upset that a game doesn't quite meet your lofty expectations.
And anyone who tries to contradict me (as you have just attempted to) obviously hasn't played the game on such a system at 2560x1440 at max details, or simply isn't as sensitive to FPS drops as I am. So your attempt at discrediting what I said falls flat on its face for a simple reason: I own such a system and it's clear that you don't.
What you own is an extreme monitor. I'm sure if I hooked up twelve monitors with a billion pixels I could get Pong to run poorly. Maybe you should try it by hooking up an IBM T221 with 3840X2400 resolution and see if that cures your problem.
