How on earth could Intel and AMD be harmed by piracy ? Last time I checked, you couldn't download a Phenom.

I would if I could though

You think so flat.

If there weren't for piracy of software, the users wouldn't buy new hardware from Intel/AMD/ATI/Nvidia, RAM makers, HDD, etc in order to play the latest pirated games, software, to store the tons of downloaded music from Napster, kilotons of movies from Torrentz, etc. They wouldn't buy the latest hardware in order to play their pirated games...

Think about it. Less game piracy means less hardware sell....

:shadedshu

More hardware sell, means more default MS Windows sell to PC producers = more $ for MS. Also individual hardware might come with bundled software like apps, games etc => more $ for software producers....

So let's stop thinking only in black/white or good/evil for a moment......

No. It's: no money = no OS (MS) = no computer = no processor

Edit: Of course Im anwsering not you, but the Shibahiyooo)

Shihab · Feb 24, 2011

So we are taking hypothetical scenarios in account now ?

"Think about it. Less game piracy means less hardware sell" ?

:wtf:

Windows has been pirated for ages now. Yet they still keep releasing new versions. I don't think they are planning to stop making what gave them world domination just because of a ~~coupla million~~ few pirated copies >_>
The OEM business alone generates brazilions of $$. Anyway, MS can rot in hell for all I care. That would just mean more focus on Linux.

Ubuntu ? :toast:

I have always believed that without piracy...We wouldn't have DVD burners or the media to use with them.. nor would we have such huge HDD's as we do now.. ..My 1st PC had 40GB of space.. The one I use now has 6TB of space
Also the boom of broadband that came about in the early 2000's happened as a direct cause of piracy

I'm going to add that I think the porn industry has also contributed as well.... :pimp:

clearly, too much porn is the cause of pirated games and crysis 2 being leaked.

we've finally solved it.

I meant with the boom of high speed broadband and volumes of hard-drive space that many people have on their computers.

But you are right, porn does solve a lot of problems.

Well.. I know my porn collection is legendary

Got 300GB on my HDD and perhaps another 800GB to a TB in AVI format on DVD...

This BETA IS COMPLETE GARBAGE! :laugh:

no wonder its leaked. There are so many things wrong with the game! Obviously someone wants this hyped so that everyone will buy the working version. duh This is almost as bad as the moh beta then the fixed version comes out and its nothing like the BETA! They fixed everything that people complained about. People are idiots. Dam does anyone know what the word beta means. It is just a test copy. I got it for free and I don't even want to play it anymore its so horrible. It looks worse than a console. I want DX11 smooth game play with no sh!tty screen tears. That you have to pay for. I usually get the cracked or leaked game before I buy. Its my form of a demo if the company does not supply one. I hate spending $ on pieces of garbage. I do not pirate out of support for PC. I got Bulletstorm without trying it first and I am pissed. NO EYEFINITY SUPPORT!

Thank god someone leaked this. We need to test and tweak it. It should be free because it is a terrible beta in order to fix the problems

TAViX · Feb 25, 2011

It's no beta. Is alpha at most. It seems that even cinematics are missing or will be completely different from the final version.....Remains to be seen.

Solaris17 · Feb 25, 2011

regardless of pirates or legalities iv come to the conclusion that games like this need to come with case badges. We already have them for our graphics cards might as well be one for what we are playing on our thousand doller systems.

onthemour · Feb 25, 2011

Obviously no one has actually checked out the game! IT CONSTANTLY BLANKS TO THE CRYTEK DEVELOPER SCREEN. Its says "property of crytek. not for distribution" :banghead:

This is not the final game! No one and I mean NO ONE would pay $2 for this. The 5.1 7.1 sound is broken and not working which makes the game impossible to hear. They promised the function of advanced graphic tweaks just like every other game does. It is missing here. Hmm wheres that vsync
This is not the pc version made separate from the console port. This is something half done. ONLY AN IDIOT WOULD PLAY THIS AND SAY IT IS GOOD AND THE REAL THING!

:laugh:

Wake up and realize what is going on. There is a reason why this is leaked. There is a reason why this garbage is leaked. Trust me someone knows what is going on

I don't blame you for not reading through the 35 pages, but we all know it's not the real thing... Just have a little read through the thread, quite a lot of it is quite amusing...

Yeah, you just summed up the thread in about a paragraph there! Fortunately, you skipped all of the moral/ethical nonsense that needs to be kept in the GN forum.

Oh yes, welcome to the forum by the way! :toast:

no, its more likely that linux will gain 40 % market share.

Can we talk now about now why Cryengine 3 looks worst than 2...Just a tough from what I've seen from the alpha leak...

because we're looking at the console level graphics. the beta doesnt have the full graphics (no DX11, for a start)

I can live with the lower graphics, but I cannot live with lower designs, like very little space on missions, very tight paths, no wider areas, etc, etc..... :shadedshu:

It's been going on for years. Long gone are the days where you actually had to, god forbid, think to get somewhere.

Hmm Crysis 2 definitely looks better than warhead, but what I've noticed is the character animations are somewhat more stiff ... hoping retail will have improved on this.
