Puddy · probably doesn't interest many of you... Puddy March 3, 2011 at 7:10 PM

just awful trailer, just awful.

I am bit of a capitalist myself, definitely right-leaning fiscally and economics is a field I enjoy reading about. One would think that I would be the target demographic of this kind of film but I can honestly say I consider this complete and utter bullshit.

Bioshock lifted some themes and style from atlas shrugged and that was cool and all but the novel itself is just... gehjghg.

Bible but for religious capitalists basically.

Quote from Thrik

It does seem a strange decision to me to release the multiplayer demo before the single-player demo. Whereas with a single-player demo people can be introduced to the gameplay and controls smoothly and in a nice, controlled manner, with a multiplayer demo people are thrust into a (probably laggy) server with loads of other (probably laggy) gamers who don't have a god damn clue what they're doing. And not only that, because there's no real tuition of how to play the game effectively it just devolves into deathmatch.First impressions count a lot, and I can't think of a worse way of introducing people to Crysis 2 than using its multiplayer. I'm sure a lot of time has been spent on the multiplayer, but there're a lot of people who're properly anticipating the game because of its epic story-orientated trailers and such who're going to probably try the multiplayer demo out of desperation and be left stone cold.
Not that it bothers me personally because I'm just holding off for the proper game, but I'm seeing the effects of what I've described left, right, and centre. Rather than enjoying the game for what it is, everyone is too busy complaining about server/registration problems and the inherently chaotic gameplay multiplayer brings — and any technical issues such as FOV and anti-aliasing are made even more conspicuous because there's no immersive story/scripting distracting people.

Word, nicely put.

Quote from Psy

Still can't play. The game claims that all the servers are full.

They are probably, they fill up really quickly. Just keep trying and you should be set.

It's a shame we haven't seen mp yet, yes. From what I can see the SP looks like BC2 SP so far; heavily scripted, dumbshit AI and overall not too interesting. DICE could prove me wrong though, which I hope they do.

However, I still think what we've seen is awesome because the gunplay, animations, overall feel and juicy graphics will probably carry over into MP... which is the important part

Puddy · Crysis 2 Puddy March 2, 2011 at 10:00 AM

I have played some more of it now and it really gave me the urge to purchase... Bulletstorm.

I could rant on and on about the small details that made me not like this but to sum it pretty well: it didn't feel right. The gunplay was bland as fuck. "Ratatatata" right on target, no need to compensate or fire in bursts etc.

The player control didn't feel tight and I thought that your movementspeed was kind of sluggish compared to Crysis 1 (especially when strafing). The format of the MP didn't sit well with me either, I would've appreciated multiplayer modes more akin to Squad Rush from BC2. I feel that kind of MP plays more into the "sandbox" type of gameplay (i.e. you spawn on different points and one team tries to assault). Now everyone is just running around like chickens shooting eachother in the back.

EDIT: But I am looking forward to SP! Loved Crysis and Warhead.

Holy fucking crap that looks like pure awesome.

DICE, you sons of a bitches!!!

Puddy · Crysis 2 Puddy March 1, 2011 at 4:55 PM

That's a complete fucking mystery to me too. I dislike when surrounding bullshit prevents you from enjoying a probably excellent core product.

PSY: I did like it for a couple of minutes. But when you have to click a lot of back and forth once you're logged in it's just... annoying.

Finally got in after recreating my account.

But had to go to work so I could only play for like 7 minutes.

However, that was enough to give me nausea as the FOV is ridiculously low and the menu is all wobbly.

Puddy · Crysis 2 Puddy March 1, 2011 at 2:00 PM

Wait what you are IN the game?

Puddy · Crysis 2 Puddy March 1, 2011 at 1:43 PM

Want to play before work but looks like it ain't gonna happen

Puddy · Crysis 2 Puddy March 1, 2011 at 11:01 AM

Anyone getting in without problems at the moment?

UPDATE: managed to reg an account on the website (not ingame) but can't log in... gah

Puddy · Anyone goin to NYC? Puddy February 28, 2011 at 9:13 AM

On March 22nd, you can visit NYC and have it's fate placed in your hands.

Will you let it burn in the fires of un-earhly aggression or will you make the intruders pay a heavy price for their invasion?

Puddy · Modern Warfare 3? Puddy February 25, 2011 at 10:35 PM

DAMN YOU COD!!!

I read that they are going to announce it here and thought for just half a second that "hmm, maybe it'll be all right".

NO, IT WON'T. DAMNIT BRAIN, CoD1+2+4 was good but THAT'S OVER, NOW SHUT UP AND LOOK TO BF3 INSTEAD!

Puddy · Game Wishes Puddy February 20, 2011 at 9:49 PM

GTA4 but an MMO, driving like Gran Turismo, everything dynamic, all buildings exploreable AND destructible and all of this for free. And better graphics.

Puddy · Texture Artist Savior Needed Puddy February 17, 2011 at 11:05 AM

Hey Mapcore!

I've currently rounded up testing of my mod Precursor and I intend to ship in late-late February (or early march if you need additional time to make the below texture).

However, we have a weapon which lacks texture. That's where we need your assistance.

We need a texture artist who can produce a texture for our new weapon and it's corresponding ammobox. Animations and geometry is done.

So, please, if you have the time or know someone who may be interested with helping us with this relatively minor task don't hesitate to contact us!

Post here, PM or e-mail [email protected]

Some screens for your viewing pleasure.
