Disappointed with crysis 2

Am i the only guy disappointed with crysis 2? everyone i know seems to lke it.

I thought it would be like the original crysis multiplayer but its changed so much it just feels like a entirely different game. there is really no strategy to playing the game, you just run around and get kills. Where as crysis, the maps were big and there was more room for strategy behind your game, of course you got the guys running around with speed mode on trying to rush their teams, but thats all there is to do now.

IMO the maps are too small and i run into too many people walking around invisible with a shotgun, or with maximum armor with the detached turret.

Also the graphics suck, they shouldn't of tried to downgrade cry engine 3 for xbox, the shadows pop in a few feet away from you, and i've noticed that in some places objects don't even have shadows or reflect lights.

A straight port of cry engine 2 would have been perfect for xbox, it looks great and the xbox would run it easily at 30 fps

I agree. I'm pretty dissapointed with Crysis 2's demo. It feels spot on like Call of Duty. Anyone who says it's not is blind. Believe me, I'm not just saying this - I absolutely hate it whenever a new game comes out and all the people on GameSpot compare it with Call of Duty, it happens everytime. But, Crysis 2 feels just like Call of Duty. Where's the teamwork?!

I've had enough of Call of Duty, so Crysis 2 was a huge dissapointment to me when I played it. Both versions of the demo felt exactly the same. I played it for like ten minutes before I deleted it.

But hopefully the single player is good, because that's what Crysis is known for in my opnion. I just don't think I'll ever touch that multiplayer ever again.

you guys are giving up on the game based off 2 demo maps, limited game types and classes?

Yes, the graphics are spectacular. I'm not juding the fully completed, whole package product. I'm juding the multiplayer based on the demo. That's not an unfair assumption. I don't have to play all the maps to realize this is Call of Duty all over again. For some people, that's great, for me, that's really a let down.

I'm talking about gameplay. You don't have to play all the maps and use all the weapons to realize whether or not you like or don't like the gameplay. If you're saying you do, then that's crazy.

But, again, this demo has nothing do with the singleplayer. The singleplayer could blow everything else out of the water, or it could be as bland as the multiplayer demo. All I know is, the multiplayer sucks. That's all I'm saying.

Demos can tell you a lot about the game, whether people realize this or not. I feel really clunky when I play this game. I don't feel smooth and fluid like I do in other games. Everything feels sluggish and unresponsive and none of that will change by playing a different map.

Theres tons of similarities between this and COD, and guess what? GAMEPLAY ISN'T ONE OF THEM. If you think so your observational skills are bordering on mentally defective. If "it's to much like COD" is your one and only argument, you have no argument. Just simple state "I don't like it." Don't try to validate it with flawed reasoning... Seems dumb.

I actually do have an argument. I don't like Call of Duty. It's feels and plays just like Call of Duty to me. I know what an opinion is and I'm not pressing that on anyone. I'm not out on a mission to spoil all the fun for the people that like it - good for you, that's why the devs made the game. I can argue, and it would be a solid, whole argument that I don't like the multiplayer and it felt too much like more of the same to me. That's all the reasoning I need to not like it.

Telling me I can't make that judgement...seems dumb.

the little beta they had was huge disappointment that i want nothing do with the name. i played 3 match's and was bored on the first one... There was nothing exciting about it whats so ever. It felt like somewanna-be game that added special powers to make a new game.

um no

the ONLY reason we are seeing crysis on a console is BECAUSE of cryengine 3. the amount of foliage in crysis and warhead would have killed the consoles.

When was the last time you guys liked a new game? All i see is hate for every new game, it's getting old.

I was looking forward to this game and still am. if you don't the demo thats fine but stop being a buzzkill.

It doesn't feel like COD but it is very similar. It is possible to work together but strategy seems very limited. Also, something about it makes it get boring so fast. I have not found myself ever craving more after playing a few games. It is bland and unless they change a lot the game is not worth picking up. Then again the single player will probably be a lot better, but I need good multiplayer to shell out 60 bucks.

I would have to see what other game modes they have, honestly.

I'm disappointed with Crytek, for only releasing a multi demo of Crysis 2. They should know better. Crysis' strenghts aren't multi. If they want this game to sale, they better release a great single player demo soon.

I thought it was cool, something diff.

But the hitscan made me mad.

I would shoot someone , then on the kill cam it would show i never shot them so they turned around on me like i was a sitting duck.

that still dosn't fix the boreing Mp the game is going to offer... i played 3 matchs and wanted to turn off my xbox on the first one.... A new game shouldn't make you want to turn it off on the first round...

well said.

I'll probably buy it so I will have something to do while I wait for May releases (DNF and L.A. Noire)

Don't get me wrong, I think the singleplayer will be the saving grace of this title. Everyone knows the first Crysis didn't sell and become so popular because of the Multiplayer. To me, Crysis multiplayer is just a nice bonus, it's just that this little "bonus" in Crysis 2 isn't my idea of awesome.

I never played Crysis 1, but the demo of Crysis 2 was very underwhelming.

The first demo was great other than people cloaking and beating you down. You felt like a genuine BA supersoldier. Now, in the second one, I'm almost scared to cloak, armor, or sprint because I don't want to get caught with no energy.

Too much hate.

So sick and tired of people slapping the COD tag on this title when it is NOTHING like it. Can someone honestly give me some fair reasons as to why they say this is like COD?...and if you say killstreaks please stop. The nanosuit alone separates this game from COD period. It completely changes the gameplay style and forces the player to be much more tactical than the run 'n' gun nature of COD.

T-razor1

have we played the same demo, you and I?

It's just like Call of Duty. You run around with a gun and try to kill people. There are no other objectives. You spray bullets and try to get killsteaks, many of which are exactly the freaking same as Call of Duty. You do not rely on your teammates, but instead try to be John Rambo for the duration of the match. Whenever you die, you watch a killcam identical to Call of Duty. After the match, whichever team had the greatest lone wolf that got the most kills wins. hmmmm. What game does that sound like? It definitely doesn't sound like Battlefield, Gears, Rainbow Six, Bulletstorm, Homefront, Halo, or any other popular shooter. It does sound a lot like the cookie cutter Call of Duty they release every year, though.

The only differences between the Crysis 2 demo and Call of Duty are the fact that you can do a few suit power ups, slide on the ground, and the graphics are better. The main reason it sucks? There is no teamwork or tactics involved. Being able to stomp the ground is not tactical. Maximum armor is nothing more than Juggernaut on the go. Cloaking is somewhat tactical, but if that the only strategy the game offers then that's sad. I soon grew tired of some dude cloaking with a shotgun. You call that "changin the gameplay style"? I can do that on Halo: Reach.

Crysis 2 Multiplayer Call of Duty with a some armor abilities.

Believe me, I hate it when people compare games to Call of Duty, but this game's multiplayer is spot on Call of Duty. The nanosuit alone does not seperate it from Call of Duty, not nearly enough. I know I can speak for many people, but we're tired of Call of Duty's multiplayer. They release it every year with virtually no changes, and it's getting tired. In fact, it's dead to me. It almost seems like the devs modeled this multiplayer after Call of Duty, and that's very apparent in both versions of the demos.

Hopefully the singleplayer will be pretty amazing, and I think it will be a really enjoyable experience. Crysis isn't a multiplayer game, everyone knows Crysis is all about the singleplayer.

I'm not writing off Crysis 2 before it even gets released... I'm just writing off the God aweful multiplayer.

He speaks the truth. I don't understand how you can not see it's just like CoD, right down to the killcam and killstreaks (UAV at 3, another at 5, and gunship at 7, just like CoD4). If you compare Crysis to Halo and then to CoD you'll see how similar they are. It's practically the same game plus armor abilities and better graphics. Makes me sad that gomes are trying to be like a series as boring as CoD.
