Crysis 2 PC demo is out

There are only three graphical options in the demo as well as the full retail game. If you go to Geforce.com and read the review, they benchmark the single player with a near-finish build of the game. Near-finish, which means, the graphical settings you get (Gamer, Advanced, Hardcore) are the only ones that will be there once the full game is out. Near-finish is only a few bug fixing from finished.

LAME!!!! I'm selling my key once I get it on March 22. I can't get a refund =(

This has to be a joke. 3 graphics settings? What is this, the worst console port ever? Okay at least it runs great on my rig. But in most multiplats you can turn up the AA, AF, shadow res etc.

I seriously doubt that crytek messed up so badly with this one. I'll wait for the finished product and will test it out myself.

So? Then you'll be forced into DX11 and you're preformance will die. You won't beable to change it.

Also it's pretty much safe to say no modding tools are coming.

Also there is no DX11 support. If there was, they wouldn't be giving us those benchmarks. Hense... no DX11.

That's ****. Three predetermined graphical options? I expect this from a console port like Mass Effect 2, not Crysis 2, from developers that still claim that PC is their favorite platform.

Edit: Not to mention you're stuck with their **** AA solution AND the configs are supposedly encrypted.

[QUOTE="mitu123"][QUOTE="Solus_Christus"] DX11 will be patched in day 1Solus_Christus

Reminds me of F1 2010. They released a patch for Nvidia cards to enable Dx11 3 months after release.

The only sandbox I saw was a small area with all of the weapons laying around in it.

I would also assume, in a positive note, that if they add Directx 11 or even 10 >.>, that it would be for Nvidia Cards only. Seeing as Nvidia promotes a lot of the game on PC.

Very lame IMO...(This is what you get when, a game is being developed for three different platforms. More time spent on trying to find a universal point, then polishing the game to be what it can be.)

Honestly... Did they have to take a all or nothing approach? Before you could mix and match settings to better suit your hardware, now you either have the specs for something in its entirety; or you cannot run it.

^is that only for mp? SAGE_OF_FIRE

No :lol:

Pre-order cancelled, thanks for the demo lol

All the demo data is locked in this folder:

The .cfgs are there too.

God damn you Nigel, whoever you are!:lol:

All these people upset and causing a storm.... this is the onlien demo people... Crysis has never been about online.

Not to mention the campaign always has looekd way better then the online.

I say wait until the game comes out to toss it under the bus.

A MP demo will not make me cancer my preorder for a game I dont plan on playing onlien at all.

Getting Crysis for its online is like getting a Stalker game for the online... its just not right.

Crysis was a masterpeice because of its campaign not its online people.

I know its a demo yadada, but lets all try the campaign a few times over and then come to conclusions as to how it looks,plays,etc..

This is exactly why I said LETS WAIT TILL THE GAME COMES OUT... RUMOURS.

I saw a friends brother play the beta for Crysis2 on PC and the 20mins I saw looked amazing, even with crap sounds and some bugs.

Online demo sucked, what ive seen of campaign looked amazing... all that tells me is to wait for the game to come out and try the full thing myself.

There are some things im worried about and somethings I am not worried about, lets just wait and see how this turns out when its installed and we are playing it. Tons of times a demo does not let you have access to all the settings or are limited to certain settings,etc...

Many times system wars has been up in arms over aspects in games, only to be wrong or to judgemental.

I guess time will tell to see how this game shapes up.

Is it me or nothing is destructible in the demo?GeneralShowzer

I haven't seen anything destructible either. Trees for example in single player beta were static not like in Crysis 1.

It was confirmed those are the only options, geforce.com posted the first benchmarks today.

Also I played the SP and it's just as bad. Nanosuit 2.0? Moar liek 0.2 amirite.

I doubt this will be like the first one. Crytek released a mp demo, twice in 360. We all know that they are targetting the cod players.

04dcarraher

The exact opposite imo. I know people who were not gonna get the game but after playing 3-4 levels of the leaked beta they preordered the game right away because of the campaign.

I guess time will tell

So those are the only graphics setting? That sucks if that all it is in the full release. Man seems like this is a step back from Crysis.

Yeah don't think there anything destructible.

Yes to get the 360 owners they wanted to show off an online that might get the COD onlien players. But for Crysis its always been about Campaign, and judging from the 20-30 mins ive seen of the beta, the campaign for Crysis2 destroys the multiplayer once again.

Sorry but to me Stalker, Crysis,etc.. are all about campaign, online is just a bonus for those who like online. now with Crysis coming to consoles of course they want to get a peice of the ONLINE FPS love that people on xboxlive have.

We live in a ONLINE ONLINE SHOOT SHOOT world for videogames now, if you want to do really well on consoles for a FPS, most the time you gotta put in a multiplayer part.

Hey, I miss the jungle already and I have not played Crysis2 yet. I have faith though that Crytek will deliver an amazing campaign like the first two. Probably wont be as good as the first Crysis campaign, but could still be very enjoyable, sure looks like it from what ive seen.

As for the graphics complaints people have.... well i hope its not true. but if it is.... that sucks but in all honesty graphics are the least of my worries in videogames. Even a game like Crysis1... graphics were only my 3rd fav thing about it (Loved the graphics, gameplay and atmosphere). Sucks if we dont have alot of settings to mess around with and if its worse graphics because of hte consoles, but lets wait and see how this all turns out.

The map design looks really good though.

We'll see about that.

What was the best part about Crysis 1 single player? It's open areas and sandbox feel. Say goodbye to that in Crysis 2. In the first one, the single player was the main focus while the mp was an afterthought. That's why the demo had the sp part of the game.

Crysis 2 is the other way around. They released a mp demo only in 360 ignoring the pc, in a console that is all about mp fps games. Now they released the pc demo and is still mp, press start (?) to continue with limited graphical options.

I don't see the big deal that you can't swim. I really doubt it would make a difference.

I hate the stupid menu that moves with your mouse. Hate it, hate it, hate it! :x

so its final? no dx11 support?

There is, but given the current state of the game, I'm expecting nothing. Certainly nothing big like tesselation.

I wonder if Battlefield 3 is going to meet the same fate, through I kinda doubt it.
