Thanks.
Yeah, everything points to a straight port. But still, I'm curious, I want to test the 3d mode.

This is exactly what I feel.EviLore said:
It feels as though the game has tons of mouse acceleration that needs to have a toggle on/off switch.
I don't really have a problem with controls or graphics (MP graphics are always worse than SP and there's be plenty of custom configs), I just straight up hate COD clones.
Will there be any objective based modes in the full release that don't have teeny tiny maps and random spawns?

At first I had it enabled with triple buffering but disabled it and the in-game vsync (and "aim assist" whatever that was...I assumed it was some kind of mouse acceleration). Still some aim lag.

The second round is later today when Dice shows the trailer for BF3 and Crytek gets their shit pushed in. Crytek still makes great looking games, but after this they need to realize they are not the best anymore and there is no reason for them to claim to be.

Crytek is going to blame the PC community when this game doesn't sell as well as they hope on PC's.

To be fair, this actually happened with Crysis 1, too.Igor Antunov said:

Well this is depressing. I won't be downloading the demo. I have seen enough.
That GIF image couldn't have been more appropriate.
They're also asking for $60 on the PC version. PASS.

Are you trying to create an account from inside the game menu? It wouldnt let me log in with my existing account but it did let me create a new one from the game menu.

Got to try this today on modest settings. Really good looking game, not sure what all the fuss is about outside of strict settings and forced Temporal AA.
Looks alot better than 360 version, runs about the same (playing it 720p @ steady 30FPS). Not sure what the rig is (friends PC), but it seems to look shitload better than 99% of PC games we've played.
Despite any graphics woes - the game is awesome to play. I really hope EA have a big marketing push behind this. It is without a doubt superior to COD/BLOPS multiplayer in every conceivable way (except map count heh). Should be an interesting outcome no matter what happens - this is definitely the best contender thus far, when it comes to competing for the COD audience. I don't expect it to beat COD in any capacity - but I have several friends on XBL who are COD addicts, and their hype/talk for Crysis 2 is gathering exponentially. Hope it does well, maybe the competition will make Activision pull their head out of their ass and raise the quality bar.

On topic, sounds like the PC demo's disappointing. Stripper13 said:

You mean you didn't notice the huge fucking blur over the screen or the input lag? Look how clean those Crysis 1 shots are compared to Crysis 2

I think you guys are over reacting, wait for single player to come out. Multiplayer in crysis was a lag fest you need a god like PC to play on the special high end graphics servers. I am guessing multiplayer is locked at DX9 inorder to get the best frame rate and netcode for everyone.
Also temporal AA sucks must have option to remove it! I can live with Aliasing but not blurriness.

Oh come on. I loved Crysis, both for the graphical leap that it was, and for the game itself. Those calling it a 'demo' are mostly console kids crying over the graphics, sorry.
And now this. Press start? On a PC game? Really? Why can't they design it as it should be and then dumb down the shit out of it for consoles. Aim assist default option?
I was really sorry for them about the leak and was actually happy to see PC gamers in various forums saying they will buy the game to support this PC gaming supporting company. Yeah, don't much care about it now, fuck it. Worse graphics than the years old predecessor, limited fov, huge weapon in your face.
After having loved Dragon Age so much to have it destroyed by that abomination of a sequel, this is too sad for me.
"But why do you care that it comes to consoles too? More people will enjoy the game, don't be paranoid"... I like God of War, just not in my Dragon Age. As for FPSs I can't find a similar analogy... I just don't like them on consoles, so please don't turn PC FPSs into Console FPSs. So sad.

What's an image host that doesn't compress pics?

Didn't notice either really. Maybe a little input lag, though for the record, I am primarily a console gamer.Marrshu said:
