Multi-platform Crysis 2 Officially Announced

Where is Trespasser 2? I've been waiting 11 damn years

Any information about the storyline?

As someone that bought Crysis and loved it, if they release this on consoles first as punishment for pirates I am going to have to think about whether I want to give Crytek my money any more. I know that seems kind of dramatic, but when I buy a game I think about how I am supporting the company -- if that company is doing things I don't agree with (like punishing ME for the actions of pirates) then my only way to punish them in return is to not buy their products, unfortunately.

If they insist on the "Pirate Theory", then I hope they face the consequences and their console ports fail -- at least this will teach them to make games that gamers actually want. I think it has been proven time and time again that if a company makes a game that the people want it will sell great no matter how many people download it.

Crytek, dump the Pirate Theory officially and release this simultaneously on all platforms, please, and you will certainly get my $55.

I don't blame them. Unless you're Blizzard, the PC platform just isn't profitable enough for exclusivity. Thanks, pirate scum.

The thing about Crysis is PC gamers loved to hate it because their systems weren't advanced enough to run it. The actually games fun factor while decent wasn't anything nextgen. So Crysis 2 will be playable on 3+ year old console hardware. Either Cyrtek has mastered their coding skills or they are trimming out the advanced PC coding so the game can be played on consoles. I'm guessing the second and predicting a turd.

Hope I dont need to buy a Cray to play this.

Give us a true PC sequel to wrap things up with Nomad or don't fucking bother imo. I didn't buy a ~$400 DX10 graphics card to play console games.

I really hope the PC version isn't gimped because of this. I want everything to be as it was in Crysis 1, a huge realtime open environment. I have a feeling this will go more towards the linear Warhead level design though, which was still open but not nearly as much so.

I don't care about Crysis "anything"!! It was over-hyped by the press, and amounted to nothing but a prime example of "Very Poor Coding". And Crytek Studios are a bunch of "Cry Babies"... They should give up programming and go back to Cab Driving, or Garbage Collecting... and stay far away from computers.

IMO, even if they develop for the consoles, as long as they maintain their poor (lazy) coding habits and refuse to optimize their software. Any game they make will be steaming pile of horse excrement! (Though I'm sure some of you will buy it anyway...) All I can say is "NO Thank you!!" I'll support other companies who don't treat me like I'm some 13yr old with ADD...

Oh, and for the record, I have NEVER downloaded a copy of Crysis. And I did not buy it! I was marginally interested until I watched a friend run it on an Intel Skulltrail system, with SLI 8800GTX cards. So I contend that their claim that "they were writing this for computers 5yrs in the future" was a really a bad excuse. (It's a silly! Ludicrous!! Preposterous!!! Excuse...)

To put it succinctly this game was poorly coded, and completely un-optimized. It did, however, have "pretty graphics". But pretty graphics do not a good game make. Still it sold about a million copies, but Crytek soon realized that they didn't want to "fix it". So they drummed up the whole scam about it being pirated so they could cancel "support". After which they started working on "Warhead", which still doesn't perform that well. Though performance was supposed to be one of it's "design goals". Maybe you don't see a pattern emerging here... But I sincerely question whether ANY of Crytek's games will every be worth even trying.

Anyway that is my 5¢ worth. (end of rant...) I'll shut up now!

They need a new setting, something urban perhaps.

They need a new enemy to fight, or a total redesign on the aliens – enough of the flying squid sentinels.

They need a complete redo on the multiplayer aspect, what they have in Crysis just isn’t working.

Day 1 purchase.

For the PC.

This game better include the sandbox editor. The only reason to pick up Crytek games is for the map editing to make crazy physics contraptions like pig cannons and explody Ferris wheel barrel rapers. Nobody actually plays the game.

So does that mean it will look worse than Crysis Warhead? :(

Please add co-op!

Please give me a reason to buy a new video card.

As long as its not built for 360 & ported to PC, I dont need any more of that shit.

PC release? Hah. Cevat "Crybaby" Yerli got over it after all?

Please don't go over to the dark side and make the game for consoles and port it to PC. Please.

I hope they can keep the gameplay style intact with the console hardware :(

Good hopefully that douchebag cervat yerli will now shut the fuck up instead of comparing cod4 sales to crysis sales and complaining like a little bitch when "only" pushing 1+ million copies of crysis (considering that crysis scales,performs and looks like ass on low to middle end systems he really needed a reality check).

i really like crysis, it ran well on my system and i consider it one of the best fps if not the best of the last few years (at least until the aliens bullshit). i praise it in almost every fps thread
but storywise i don't need a sequel (considering how much of a bullshit cliffhanger the first one ended i would probably care if the story itself wasn't worthless) and the whole alien setting is getting stale.

Holy shit! Good to hear the Crysis franchise is alive...but multiplatform?!! Oh well...it was inevitable I guess. But they could have atleast kept the Crysis franchise PC exclusive, since they are also working on another title which will be on consoles. I just hope they don't have to sacrifice the gameplay to run on consoles.

Anywho, can't wait to continue the story :)

Hopefully someone will make an actual game with their engine some day.
