Wtf fileplanet said the beta was open batch 5 to a limited number of people, so i used my free account and got a key, but then my computer froze when i was tryin to install, and i lost the key(they never emailed it) and the beta was corrupted or something. Now if u go on the website you need to be a payin member what bs.
That's funny, his pc is starting to show its age, so now he criticizes. It's wierd how people say all the money we spend, remember if you want console games to look halfway decent you need to buy a halfway decent HDTV and those cost a pretty penny as well, plus the console itself, plus the additional controllers and so on. Also, a PC does a lot more things than any current console can do, so for clarification it's not just for one game.
I played it, I persisted, I learned how to play, I liked it. Runs pretty well at High/med ( high shader detail ) at 1440x900. It's like STALKER mixed with quake wars and a tad of battlefield, and it gets me hot.
After alot of torture I finally got the beta . I need a key and the beta is closed.. please send me a key pm .. :-( I will appreciate it. CRYSIS BETA RELEASE 3 CHANGELOG: 4.

Got Beta3. All I gotta say is, the game looks amazing to be only High settings and DX9. But my HONEST opinion. I dont dig the MP poriton so far. I think i will LOVE the SP...but I'm not sure about MP yet. Ill keep following MP along and see how it evolves. So far I just have more fun with Quake Wars RETAIL..not the beta...NOT the demo...RETAIL. I hate fanboys in the crysis BETA that say quake wars sucks and they only beta tested it...
GenerationGXX: really? and like Halo, Mass Effect, MGS4, and CoD4 aren't "decent generic shooters"? none of them really bring anything different to the table..... then there's the fact that CoD4 is coming out for PC too. Pretty much the only upcoming FPS that's bringing anything different to the table will be Hellgate: London..... but even the MMOFPSRPG-esque gameplay has been done before. Must say though.... the game will more than likely be buy-worthy..... both Crysis AND Hellgate. If you ask me.... the Nanosuit is the most innovative thing brought to a game for quite a while. Here's a better idea. build yourself a nice gaming rig.... and buy one console that has games you either know you like, or are looking forward to (even though "i think i want to play that" usually isn't the greatest option). You complain about having to spend "$2000" on a gaming rig to play Crysis, even though it's complete BS...... but say paying up to $1000, if not more, is a better option... when you'd wind up spending even MORE on all the games you want to play for THREE systems? plus as people already said the fact that you need a decent 1080p HDTV to make 360, and especially PS3 look remotely decent? sounds kinda redundant to me.
:knock: wdf so many issues fixed, but still stutters like crap, i know my cpu bottlenecks but still, it runs like crap. Its more like pre-beta to me not the 3rd release!
Is there an official BETA FORUM for this game somewhere??? When I got my key, I also got a beta forum password but I have no freaking clue where the forum is..........
Can anyone connect to servers? I just got my key yesterday for the latest release and know I can't connect to a single server. It worked yesterday.
apparently there's a bit of a problem at the moment. it's been goin around in the chatroom for Crysis.
oh thats why i haven't been able to play it... I'm also getting lots of "driver stopped working" with the game and 163.71
i got that as soon as i installed FRAPS and tried to play. uninstalled Fraps.... reinstalled the drivers.... worked.
4 headshots with the pistol and you'r dead, so i thinks that either the hitboxes are way off (does crysis have per poly hit detection or not?) or the netcode suxs big balls...btw: i enjoy it more than this e-penis bullsh*t crap shooter of quakewars...it's kinda phun man
same here. i don't normally play MP altogether. not even UT and BF2..i just play offline with bots. LINK agreed. yeh there is a problem at the moment.
All this "Quake wars vs Crysis" statements are getting old. I getting both. Why? Because I want to, simple as that. My main critique though with crysis beta is that the mission objectives aren't very clearly stated.
