Sheppard Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 welcome to today. a superficial world based on superficial e-power. kids with the demo > kids without "i hav teh dem0, u suxx0r" I found this new status system annoying at first, so i paid to join file planet, where i've been "the first" to get a few demos and betas recently. I have to say when i was one of the first to get the crysis multiplayer demo my e-peen twitched with excitement slightly, that is until i played it and discovered that the developers have no clue about what is expected from a multiplayer game in 2007 (squads anyone?). The e-peen then retracted completely when i saw "the kids" have no idea what team play is and spent the entire game throwing cars at their team mates to steal their weapons.....:( so.. dont fret, it'll probably be crap anyway :) Its hardly crap at all, name how many FPS multiplayer game have squads thesedays outside of Battlefield series, its just not needed, before the beta went public i had a great time playing helping Crytek try and balance the game out, when it went public it turned into CS:S, people driving at people and jumping out so the person would die and they would get a tk, people punching cars over, shooting tyres, using rocket launcher as a 1 hit close range kill weapon. Despite all the idiots i still have good fun with the game and thats only 1 map and 1 game mode, i cant wait for the Single player and Multiplayer.

Digitalx Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 ok looks like we have a final release date it's looking like 11pm (23:00) PST i'd assume since that's what they're choosing to go by on 26th which is about 14 hours from now, which means here in NZ on GMT +12 it'll be release at 10am on the 27th... stupid EA numbskulls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.MULLA Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 i just looked through the EA Forums- and theres quite a few people having problems with even getting it installed. at this rate the "public" users will have the download while the "special" users are still trying to figure out the problem. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No.. if yo uwant to play the demo a few hours before people who haven't preordered.. you have to preorder. Otherwise, just be patient. Remember, it's only a demo.

Sethos Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Someone released a torrent, playing the game is not possible, playing the game through the sandbox editor IS :D That's gonna keep me busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acies Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 That is just idiotic, Why don't they just release the demo into the public?? All this faffing about is just annoying. The game will probably be **** once it's release, and probably wont perform well. Hence this is probably the reason they want to get as many pre-orders as possible.

NateB1 Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 This is bizarre. I thought the point of a demo was to get new people interested in buying the game. I have it preordered, but not through the EA store. If it isn't illegal, could someone please post a torrent link / mirror? I can't see how posting a link is illegal, since it is a free demo of a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lingwo Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 It is getting pathetic, EA have only done this because they know how anticipated Crysis is. If it was one of their not so popular titles everywhere would have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raider360 Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 How big is the demo? I don't mind a small delay in releasing the demo, seeing as I have work. Once I finish though, it would be great to start playing this gem! For the people who want sizes: Crysis demo: 1.8 GB Crysis multiplayer beta: 1.38 GB I just got new 22" monitor. It's 1680x1050. I don't know if my 8800GTS will run Crysis on Dx 10 at that big of a resolution, anyone know?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
