ehh at best. i though there would be destructible environment which there really isn't.
controls are a little weird at first havent tried to rebind any yet though. wish there were more people to
a match also.i suppose i was expecting more but it's basically a prettier codblops. was supposed to have
eyefinty support which it does minus centered hud and some mnor glitching and a couple menus zoomed in (those are important hope they fix em)
i give it a 75% hope this is not final product. i've been spoiled w/ bc2. when these new fps games come out
that is the game that i compare them to and none have even come close. looks like im going to have to wait for bf3
as bulletstorm was epic console port fail. homefront has a little promise though.

the rigs i build are epic. destroys anything a console has to offer. but yet i am limited to the consoles.
these cross platform games are worthless. i put thousands into these rigs just to play a console port.

im going to be picking up a couple of the 5870 2 gb x6 cards as they are dirt cheap now.
this next rig i am going to go to a six 23in dell p2310 screen setup. stacked at bezels so you will only see one not double.

no dx 11 support - read somewhere that its being shipped w/ only dx 9 support
graphics sub par for the newest crytek engine hype.
like i said i think i just expected more.

That's disappointing, the first was too much and now this one is to little. Maybe due to the economic picture they have to tone it down.

Multiple sources say that the demo is locked to DX9, but the full game IS being released with full DX11 support.

This is multiplayer. Of course the graphics will be sub par of full.

bc2 multi looks amazing.

multi should be epic cause thats what they are demoing to sell their game. you demo a shitty looking console dx9 port on your brand new shiny crytek engine
and expect people to jump on the crisis band wagon, well not me. not trying to be a dick but damn it really is sub par gameplay sub par graphics and as it stands right now
is not any better than codblops. the state of pc gaming is getting worse and worse and this is one of those titles that hyped themselves up over a year ago and release
a crap demo for pc users. i really do hope they release something that is not crap in the end. all i can say is my day 1 buying days are over :( and i really used to be
a pre order fool.

I tried the game now, and why the hell can I run it on max with 75 FPS on average?! Thats a bit lame.. Tho the graphics looks great, but it really arent no stress at all for the computer... U say that the game is locked to DX9, and If you remember the Cryisis 1 Demo, It was also locked to DX9 just as this one. Then when I bought the game, I got DX10. :icon_happy:
I still believe in this game anyway. I am going to buy it ;)

At least you could try it out. I jumped in a few lobbies yesterday, the match would start counting down to begin, reach 1, freeze for about 30-45 seconds, and then restart at 11. It did that 5 times before I just quit trying.

I know why. Join a server that does NOT have 0 ping. Those are messed up servers, they don't work right. Scroll down a bit till you get to the ones with 100+ ping. Those work fine.
