Crysis 2 PC edition OT

Well it's no shocker that the modern console CoD/Halo fanatics are eating Crysis 2 alive. It's candy to them, with its superior graphics but familiar gameplay. I'm hoping the PC can leave that group behind for the most part. It's too bad that Crytek sold out. They were supposed to bring their sandbox shooter to consoles not bring CoD/Halo to Crysis.
 
Having said all that, I do like the Q and E for armour and stealth. They just needed it somewhere else on the keyboard.
How about doubletap back for armor and doubletap crouch for stealth? That's how it was with the "suit shortcuts" option in the previous games, which worked great for me.
 
Anyone else notice that Steam isn't tracking hours played correctly? Or maybe it's because I'm using the RadeonPro launcher? Steam still pops up a window as it launches though. Anyway, I just noticed that Steam says I've logged 53 minutes which is probably off by about 4-5 hours (or more).
 
To much killing spam fest on alter levels. Endless waves of enemies. Do not like. Inb4 dat gun needs lubrication.
 
Nebby poolicious, do you know of any confirmations of DX11 goodness entering into our beloved relationship between ourselves and Crytek as strained as it may be due to the absence of true romance caused by the lack of a DX11 render path? Is there any hope for counseling or patches which may resolve or do you think we should divorce Crytek in favour of a romance with repilicious and Battlefield 3.0?

I vote for BF3, but keep Crytek around as our concubine.

PC doesn't include steam and other digital download I presume?

Valve doesn't disclose any individual sales figures at all I believe (exception is lumping all sales together to use as a bragging tool of the size of the money pile they're all rolling around in over there... :LOL:)

It's absolutely nothing like either Call of Duty or Halo. It still feels like Crysis. Excluding the mp, but I doubt that's why it's selling.
 
True.
Beside Halo and COD both offer completely different gameplay, its either like Halo or like COD...it can't be two different things at once !
 
Btw im using Neb's config on Crysis 2 and its nice. still good for my old PC (HD 4770)

thanks the config Neb! :D
 
none of the console commands work anyhow except cl_fov and a few others...so it's almost not worth having a console at all, need to do it all in the autoexec.cfg :(
 
Got about 3/4 of the way through the game. Very enjoyable, despite all it's shortcomings. I think I'll forgive Crytek the crap textures and the consolization of the game if they release a 5GB texture pack and an awesome DX11 path that all hardcore Crysis 1 fans deserve.
