    I remember in 2011 when the game was hyped up and we were shown little bit of footage of the game and then came the release of a game i can only describe in 2 words "walled in " experience i was so disappointed to play a game that has u running through the levels like no one is there to fight u, the AI was atrocious this game had only one thing good about it. The cryengine 3 which was later named cryengine. Other than that u literally feel that u are trapped inside a level and urged to run through it with 2 options i never felt so obliged to run through a level like i was in crysis 2.im still disappointed til this day about how should have been and how it actually is.shame..

    The guy at Crytek who thought that linear approach is better than a open world (like original Crysis) should be shot.

    And omg the story?
    Nomad is dead, Psycho is gone and Prophet is Alcatraz or reverse. Wtf, what a mess.

    How about using a spoiler tag for those who haven't played the sequel to the original game?

    All I remembered is wondering how the hell I went from some Island, then ended up in New York, nice job explaining that gap, Crytek.

    Lol, it didn't feel like the same game at all. Open space to full linear and 'shaky' transition from crysis 1.

    lol that random number gpu. :D

    HD 2600 pro users are not interested in Crysis games. They probably play mobas or something.

    I can't help but feel it was designed linear because the focus was the Console market at time of release... and at time of release both consoles were not powerful enough to do the type of game we would expect as the successor to Crysis.

    I for one did NOT like part 1 at all, felt boring for some reason...Now part 2 I have to say is one of the most memorable games I have EVER played in my life, I actually enjoyed the story, Visuals were out of this world and still look better then many of todays games Fallout 4 cough cough.

    Part 3 looked and played better but to be honest the story did not grip me as much as part 2 did/.Any chance they will be doing a part 4 or did they kill-off the series?

    Get off your high horse.

    I played all the Crysis games. There are people who still didn't play the second game. Is that too hard for you to get?

    Agreed. Should have ported it later on after PC release.

    Its still a good game, but felt much more boring then Crysis 1 game play wise.

    it shouldn't be the OP's concern to warn about spoilers! The only one responsible is the one who hasn't played the game. If someone hasn't played it and cares about not spoiling the story for themselves, then what are they doing in this thread in the first place?

    Cevat Yaril was and is a big COD fan, that's why he went to a more linear FPS style and ****ed everything up. Just like The Force Awakens ****ed the original trilogy. :bang: It's all about money. Big and flashy content with no thought in it.

    Let's face it: Crysis 2 and 3 sold much more than Crysis 1, yet the only game we remember is the original.

    (I can even remember that I was pissed when the first one came out because the game was downgraded from earlier versions. The 2006's version with dark and dense jungle looked the best, yet it was gone in the final game. Some mods did a pretty good job imitating those early versions.)

    Erm, reading about the game in general?

    What's with the logic in this thread I swear.

    Crysis 2 I liked a lot. Gameplay wise and story wise, I liked it better than the first Crysis. The first Crysis had the advantage of modding. :)

    I remember that I complete most of the game killing the enemys with melee. The AI is a joke

    Exactly, they play something that ain't crysis. Not everyone is obligated
    to play that game just cause some fanboy is screaming its name from
    the top of the eiffel tower.
