Crysis 2 Demo Problems

[Issurru]

As per the topics name, I was wondering if it was just me or if anybody else has had problems with the Crysis 2 multiplayer demo. Whenever I go to join an online match I will get as far as the loading screen (before the match actually starts, and after everyone has been divided into teams) then when i'm at that loading screen my 360 just freezes. I've tried this for 6 matches and every time I get to that loading screen my 360 freezes. Is anybody else having this problem or anything like it or am I just super unlucky?

 

[TriggerUnhappy]

I had this as well, though I only froze twice before giving up and switching to the Bulletstorm demo. I'm not sure if it's the demo itself or over-worked servers on their part, we'll see I guess.

Mine froze the first time, but it works fine now. I think it's just because the game isn't released yet and they still have some optimization issues to sort out.

The problem is it's a pile of shit.
Laggy, sluggish, controls
Trying to copy Call of Duty
Unbalanced
Freezes my xbox half of the time i try to load a match
Have to equip grenades to throw them
Graphics aren't even that good
and so much more...

That had absolutely nothing to do with what the OP said.

and so it begins.

OT, It is a beta for exactly this reason.

legitimate complaint, but they have never developed for consoles before (ubisoft made every far cry besides 1)
>trying to copy call of duty
so? call of duty can has fun things about it (just admit it) and CoD clones sell.
> unbalanced
"bawwww i suck at the game"
>freezes my xbox half of the time i try to load a match
maybe its your xbox, smart one? i guess it could be a legitimate complaint if it was the game (which in this case it probably isnt). maybe your xbox is overheating, in a bad environment for it or is in a bad position?
>have to equip grenades to throw them
youve obviously never played a game before 2007, have you?
> graphics arent even that good?
are you on 420p? and do graphics even matter?

good job, 1.5/6 were reasonable complaints.

I think its related. Its basically "dont worry your not missing anything good".

Its more "This isn't like *snort* call of doody, why cant i quick scope noobs!!


Anyway what did you think of the game?

I thougght it was bad.
Clunky controls.
And the weapons were terrible, it was quicker for me to sprint up to a guy and beat him with my gun than it was to use a shotgun at close range.
Lots of people were just running around in camo, and grenades are pretty useless with low range.
personally it was a clunkier version of halo reach, just with less interesting maps, less sniper rifles, and worse grenades.

And it is actually like CoD in a way because it has killstreaks and one hit melee attacks.
Personally I would rather play Black ops, and I hated that game. I know its a beta but I cant say I would play this game again, especally wouldnt if I had to pay full price. Bargin bin imo.
Oh and the graphics werent that great imo.

Have you seen better graphics?

Yeah cause no other games have one hit melee attacks.

Half of those are opinions...

The only problem I'll really give you is the freezing Xboxes... that shit shouldn't happen.

It's happening to loads of people, 'smart one'. It is the game and his complaint is legitimate.

People need to stop calling each-other trolls on this site when the other person is not trolling. It's de-valuing the actual meaning of the word.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Cod has them, bfbc2 has them, but here is the thing, if I am playing CoD or BFBC2 at close range with a shotgun I can kill them more fficiently with the shotgun..

Whatever secret COD game you've been playing, can you please share it with the rest of us? It sounds great. Guns beating knives close range? Man, that would be great.

 

[Liberaliter]

Yeah mine froze everytime it loaded the map, I am redownloading the demo now to see if that helps.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Oh please people really overplay the knife thing. When I was playing black ops I hardly got stabbed. Shotgun > guy with knife. You can one shot themm before they get close enough to lunge.

Not if you come across eachother at a corner and he has host.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

I've tried this for 6 matches and every time I get to that loading screen my 360 freezes.

Heheh.... the map it loads is called 'Crash Site'.

How apt.
