Crysis 2 leaked almost 50 days early

[Maelstrom]

Seems like even though the game was leaked, crytek isn't giving up on the pc.
Quote for the CEO:

As you all have heard by now, an early, incomplete build of Crysis 2 has been leaked online. While we are deeply disappointed by these events, we are all completely overwhelmed by the support we have received from you, our community.

Despite this unfortunate incident, we can assure you that PC gaming is very important to us and will always be important to Crytek in the future. We are all still focused on delivering a great gaming experience to our true and honest fans. I hope you will enjoy Crysis 2 on PC, as we think it is our best PC game yet!

We appreciate all of your continued support, and look forward to playing online with you soon!

Crytek needs to make another Timesplitters game!

 

[AphexDreamer]

ok so my Official verdict is.

Halo + HL2 + Crysis + COD + Unreal 2007 = Crysis 2.

why should they be giving up PC gaming for their OWN short comings!!! and sites blaming PC gamers and pirates saying they will get a Crysis 2 for free are complete MORONS....if for a second they would of take their heads out of their asses and played it,they would see that this leak is nothing more than a very very buggy beta build which is unplayable.And people downloading it are just curios coz god forbid Crytec hasnt shown anything to use PC crowd.

why would they? if valve just said FUCK IT and packed it up when HL2 leaked do you think they would be in nearly the same place they are now? the game leaked like half a year early and sold 12 million copies.

this thread is not about the ethics and effects of piracy. instead discuss the developments of the story and technical details.

 

[BumbleBee]

Crysis 2 will rock you like a blizurricane.

<puts her sun glasses on to avoid seizures>

now it's back on topic.

Has it occurred to ANYONE that this might of been leaked on purpose.. Yea.. That shit happens from time to time. All this leaked version sounds like is an over-hyped castrated version of the actual game..perhaps not but that is a possibility... If you can think it, others can too...keeps you from underestimating people

actually a lot of people have stated that they believe this is on purpose.

 

[Over_Lord]

yeah... this was the PC demo they were promising..

heloooooooooooooooooooo did any one run dx11 on it???? im still on dx 9

 

[AphexDreamer]

heloooooooooooooooooooo did any one run dx11 on it???? im still on dx 9

No DX 11 in the leak. Only DX 9.

So no. No one has run DX11 on it.

 

[meran]

thanks but i saw DX10 icon there

I believe you are wrong. I can vouch for dx11 working.

 

[Easy Rhino]

you can? how did you do so?

 

[Mussels]

DX10 and 11 are in fact, in the beta. DX11 actually works a lot better than DX9, which is quite interesting.

replace the contents of your system.cfg with this to run in DX11 hardcore.

; crysis2

sys_game_folder=GameCrysis2
sys_dll_game=CryGameCrysis2.dll
sys_user_folder=Crysis2
sys_float_exceptions=0
sys_spec=3

r_ShadersRemoteCompiler=0

log_IncludeTime = 0
sys_languages = "english"


r_displayInfo = 0


con_restricted = 0
r_driver dx11
r_width = 1280
r_height = 1024
sys_spec_full = 3

 

[scaminatrix]

you can? how did you do so?

I looked through the .txt files in the LogBackups folder and noticed there were some errors reported in the log files, so I changed the system.cfg accordingly.

 

[Easy Rhino]

cool trying now

 

[hellrazor]

I know it's a slim chance, but will somebody try r_driver ogl or r_driver opengl or whatever you think is necessary? I would, but I'm currently in the middle of something (and it's like 11pm over here) and I'm at the college all day tomorrow.

could you please post some fraps score, choose any level(which you thought was stressful on the gcard).

Please do a 1 minute demo and post the fps for DX9 and DX11, please could you do that(stock HD5870)?

Yeah since it's coming to PS3, the engine now has OpenGL support. Lets see if it's included in the PC version.

no, because its utterly pointless. the game has stutters and freezes when it tries to load missing files, and its completely unoptimised in drivers at this point.

who cares which is faster, when its missing different textures and files between the versions...

More stable or better frames?

If better Frames it's from DX11 supporting multicore cpus better.

I'm sure if we patched the original crysis to dx11 it would run much nicer, after all it seems the only proper slow downs I get are from physics.

( for the most part I get over 40 frames in the original, cluster "cuddle" areas with lots of explosions and houses ( mostly my fault) can drop things down to 25.

The snow/explosion benchmark takes me down to 13 sometimes

 

[Mussels]

less screw ups, actually loads at higher settings than medium.

 

[hellrazor]

Tried every combination of gl/ogl/opengl+nothing/3/4/31/41 I could think of, no luck (that's not to say I didn't miss something, it's midnight:30).

So basically I'm as disappointed with EA as I usually am.

 

[Crap Daddy]

ok so my Official verdict is.

Halo HL2 Crysis COD Unreal 2007 = Crysis 2.

So is this bad? Also I would like to know if the game hits hard on the CPU or the GPU. More cores the better but is it a big difference between 2 or more?
