FINALLY. They'll be showing off multiplayer on both the PC and Xbox 360 versions, as well as a 3D demonstration in a theatre. There's going to be 36 stations in total running non-stop MP matches.Still no PS3, though.

Hopefully Free Radical has done a good job on this :)

Gamescom Cologne is just days away, which means everyone who is attending will get their very first look at Crysis 2's intense and extensive multiplayer in less than a week!

Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli and Executive Producer Nathan Camarillo (as well as plenty of other Crytek staff) will be in attendance and while it might be difficult to spot them in the massive crowds you won't be able to miss our massive booth. Within it we'll have a theater showcasing Crysis 2's awesome 3D technology and 36 stations running non-stop multiplayer matches throughout the event on both Xbox 360s and PCs. You'll be able to battle it out on two game modes (Team Instant Action and Crash Site) and two maps (Rooftop Gardens and Impact). For the rest of the details you'll just have to wait until Gamescom officially kicks off!

And if you aren't attending Gamescom fear not. We'll be certain to have coverage ready for you onFacebookandTwitterthe moment that Gamescom begins.

They must be confident that their multiplayer is pretty good to show it off in playable form.

They use their own technique where it doesnt detract much from performance. And you can do nvidia 3d with one card.

you never needed sli for 3D and there are no "3D cards". although sli helps because of the performance hit your rig take in 3D.

I believe they do, but apparently mods don't count in SW. Probably due to the fact that consoles can't do them.

This is why mods don't count on SW (credit to:FatSlasH


(credit to: the_delta)

Because too much ownage is hard for some people to deal with.

Well it won't get reviewed, so even if you want it to count, then what?

SaltyMeatballs

So content that doesn't get reviewed doesn't exist? That's a lot of DLC on consoles that don't exist then. All I'm just saying is how annoying it is that SW won't acknowledge PC mods merely for the fact that consoles don't have them, nothing more. I'm sure if consoles did have graphical mods in some parallel universe that there would be about 100 topics per week in SW about them and how this and that mod is gfx king.

Please, stop acting like victims. You know what I meant. Besides teh graphics some mods bring, how would the rest be relevant? PC fanboys on SW will tell me the mod is awesome? Not enough credibility. We already know PC can have mods, so then you'll be repeating the same old argument about how PC can have mods.

I wasn´t even adressing your comment,don´t flatter yourself.

I was merely pointing out the fact that since it´s PC only content,it doesn´t count to some people here.

It will start counting to many people around here when it come to consoles though,just like MMO´s suck now,but if they become relevant on the consoles,they´re great all of the sudden.

Just like patches didn´t count in the past but since consoles can do it now,they do count,online MP was for geeky PC gamers that lived in the mommy´s basement but now that the consoles have it too,it´s great!

I know very well how things go,if it´s only on the PC,it sucks and DO NO Want and whatever,but if it comes to the consoles then it´s the ******** holy grail. Damn sick of hypocrites these days...

Anyway, you didn't really address my point. Nothing wrong with mods, I don't doubt they are fun or however you want to describe it, I was mostly talking about how you would make them "count" in SW, not so much about how they are awesome. I just think it's silly PC gamers cry so much about mods on SW when they have so many other amazing games to play. We have known for a long time that PC can do mods and consoles can't (ignoring the limited crap PS3 can do), so what is the fuss over? The fact that they don't "count" on SW?

It all goes back to you saying that the crysis mods count as a different change of environment in terms of people posting crysis screenshots. I was just making a half serious point that, though you're right, crysis mods don't count in SW.

Mod's not only make games look better.. But can radically change the game.. My all time favorite is Alien Swarm for Unreal Tournament 2k4.. Then you look at Starcraft 2, which already has numerous custom modded maps ranging from tower defense games, to nexus wars... Then there are certain tweaks.. So even a lazy dev or a dev that didn't have the funds to fix can still be fixed through mods.. Meaning the gamers are always the winners in the end.. Vampire the Masquerades Bloodline.. One of my all time favorites released with all sorts of bugs, and unfortunately the dev was closed down.. But thanks to modders, they were able to fix just about everything of the game, and even finish unfinished things that were never activated within the game..

OMG I got modded for this!

All I did was mention the license plate which gives away the game......

Some of these mods are out of hand.

I even got modded for telling someone to stop trolling yet I am the one who gets modded for trolling not him....I gave a logical statement and I am the one in the wrong.

And yes the pictures are from GTA 4 liberty city with a mod.

I gotta admit I thought that was some high end racing game or gt5 and then I saw "coquet" on the car and was like damn! What mod is that and how does it run performance wise?
