All I gotta say is the main guy the video follows needs to review how he plays, first person he encounters he misses with a punch when the guy doesn't even know he's behind him.
The rest of the players aren't that great, I'm sure even the D-Class CWars players would wipe them up =P

In terms of actual gameplay: looks alright. No idea if you can be as fast moving as it was in CWars, the video was a bit too vague.
The HUD is cluttered as shit, and the suit customisation is same as MW2 perks.
Detachable .50cal seems like something out of Halo, and no idea what that flying thing is doing in IA..
Still, can't wait for more footage.

playing a fps on pc with an xbox controller is just fail.

Hahaha i was thinking the same, it almost feel retarted

Finally some mp action. Looks good, even on the iPhone lol.

The players are boring as shit. Were is the rage! and the 'your dead cunt!'.

meh

No wonder it was on console.... Need pc footage ffs!

At the end of that video, was that call in 'heli' like what you do in MW2? I hope not.

It could be the computer version as there was mice and keyboards there, it's just that they had controllers hooked up for the game play...maybe limiting the players ability for the video?

I think someone should petition crytek to let some of the top players in Australia have beta keys so that it can be tested throughly

I acctually quite liked the look of the MP i could imagine it with some skilled players on pc could be epic.

something looks quite....wrong there

Is it just me or are they really concentrating on the xbox version. We havnt seen any pc footage and now they announce xbox only beta?? Makes me sad also wounded

Yea thats true cossie, i guess theyll leave the best till last

Yeah it's mostly the hype around Crysis 2 that Crytek have going for them, that MP teaser was pretty poor.
It leaves questions I know I didn't want to have which will probably have answers I don't like (yeah like that flying gunship at the end on an IA match, probably will be similar to a harrier in MW2)

Didn't like the footage one bit, it reminds me too much of cod, which is something that i wasn't hoping. So i'm not happy with any of it atm and i am a bit pissed that the beta is only coming out for eggsbox, leaving PC's to wait.

i will let u kow how it is on my xbox wen it is released

I do not like the look of the way this is shaping up, I think despite what Crytec say they are going after the console kids and that the pc version will be a poor ported version of that. Even the game play looks set to be a Xbox 360 cod rip off. I have a very bad feeling we are going to be fucked dry and hard!
I did not see one laser sight and boy do those guys suck bad. I played crysis with an xbox controller when it first came out and it was real hard to hit any thing so i hope they don't think it will impress us because it just makes the hole game look noob. Faaaaail Crytec you fags lol.

Hmmm they are a company afterall. They will go where the money is.

Oh well boys better start looking for another game then because this is going to be a great disappointment they way the are carrying on.

You know what they say : Hope is the first step to the road of disappointment lol.

bf3 is also set to be released around the same time as crysis2

looks exactly how i'd picture it. Looking good imo

I hope i am wrong, but it is not off to a good start. I will be shatered if this game sucks ass for us Pc players. These guys have had to much time to sit back and watch MW2 and BFBC2 rake in record amounts of cash. We will have to wait and see!

Well they've got till to march to work their magic. Let's hope that they've listened to the communities criticism, taken it and implemented it in a way that it satisfies the community in as Many ways as possible as we know they can't make every individual player happy. Hopefully it's worth a release date purchase as I have pre ordered a copy already

Graphics look awsome and all, but I would have to see more videos of the gameplay, so they got some time to work on it.

For one they need to have a proper multi-player video demo going, proper players using keyboard and mouse.

Theirs the crysis we all know this is the first actual game play footage on pc and the guy on the camera looked like he had a stroke at times. More should come in.

no strafing?

lol they aren't hackers virt


that vid looks good, much better than the choreographed first video.
i gotta say it was hilarious how they were shooting at nothing, and the main guy is looking to see what but can't see anything yet. guess they need to work on synchronisation skills =P

i like how they compensated for wall jumping by allowing you to grab onto ledges and climb up
really hate that effect around the HUD when in that suit mode

Was that some type of walljump at 0.42?

Looks good from what I can see. Although the time it takes for the guy to get back after after he's jumped onto a different platform is a bit gay seeing as the other guy could kill u in the time it takes u stand up again

He only took a while to get up because he did that special slam on the ground thing. I think you can choose to do it or not?

Anyway after seing that pc footage my faith in crytek is restored it looks great.

love he how u died replay thing and did anyone else notice that when he was on the turret it said, "Press Mouse 3 to Detach" ?.......mountable turrets FTW

yeah just like in the SP demo from E3..... that will be handy in defending a crash site, get the guy perched somewhere with it and cover him as he cuts all the C.E.L.L guys down as they approach lol. At least they are mixing it up a bit.....and the Assists is a big + as you said Tulz

at the start of the video watch how he goes to the right while shooting seems to me like there was strafing there.

I actually liked that video that time, like karma said thats the crysis that we all know and I'm glad someone experienced uploaded their video to show off more detail .

It'll probably be they have infinite ammo while mounted, but when you rip em off they have limited ammo like 200 rounds or something silly (given that it doesnt seem to have a drum or 5 metre belt hanging out) and then it'll have to respawn.

dont forget the shitload of recoil

lol virt you clown he just said that! PAY ATTENTION BOY!

i have a tendency of reading the first few words.

That looked pretty sweet, if all the new players are gonna be the same level as those guys the veterans will be smashing it up.

Looks way more CODish, in fact to me it looked like a cross between MW2 and AvP multiplayer. Didn't have a cwars feel to it at all, and the alien at the end was a killstreak perhaps?

That game is still to far off.
