Thats the problem...its just fine...or rather barely fine.
Go play Crysis 1 and then come back and tell me that Crysis 2 is a worthy sequel 3-4 years later.
I was playing Crysis 1 there the now and it did look nice except from the drops in fps I was getting, I suppose I like Crysis 2 better because I really enjoy the online gameplay and thats all I have played never tried singleplayer at all in Crysis 2 so I guess I might notice a bigger difference if I did but I wouldn't say it looks TERRIBLE it looks worse than the first one but that was a PC exclusive, This one is now a console game as well so they have to dumb down the graphics a bit I guess I don't really mind. They need to get DX11 out though because that will surely make the graphics a bit better at least. It isn't the worst looking game around DNF looks worse for example but then again look at what The Witcher 2 can do with DX9 then compare it to Crysis 2 so I suppose you do have a point there but overall its just personal opinion.

Ah that explains your stand point, go play singleplayer....actually save yourself the misery.
I will try it next time I am playing it....maybe.
crysis 2 single player is great, what you want out of a first person shooter is beyond me
I should add that RavenXXX2, there are only six other people who has posted more times than you in this thread. You have 50 posts of whining about a game you apparently don't care about.
It was the same for the multiplayer demo thread, you had a hefty number there (more than nearly everyone else) and it's exactly the same kind of posts here. You just seem really angry and unable to move on.

Hmm lets see, a decent story, a more open way to approach objectives, a variety of enemies, a decent story, my moneys worth of gameplay time, a decent story, a challenging final boss fight, a decent story, AI that actually works...oh and a decent ******* story.
Raven is right, graphics are the least of this games problems but you would have thought that Crytek could have at least done that right.
The mere existence of the "visor" showing "tactical options" is testament to the retardedness of gamers these days (or maybe how retarded developers think gamers are).

@ KNIVES - Loving your observations there, lol
Personally I'm a fan of the second (or third depending on your perspective!) edition despite recognising that (graphically) it has been toned down versus the original.
On to my question and not sure if this has already been covered / confirmed? I'm interested in some of the references to a DX11 version. Is this just industry gossip or will we get to see an enhanced version of the current game in the near future. Sorry if this has been covered to death but I'm time pressured and not able to go back through all the pages of this thread.

while the visor was a step too far, it did ironically highlight the various different ways to approach each objective. What do you think of duke nukem forever? Id love to hear your views on a game like that.

I haven't got it yet waiting on a sale but apparently its not the game people were expecting...kind of like this.
Yes there are different way to approach...down the same narrow corridor.
There are different ways to play this game, you can do it stealthy and go for stealth kills, go for sniping from a distance to running in shooting everything that moves with a HMG.
But it is a much smaller area you can go in but in Crysis (Warhead) I never really used the extra environment and also went straight to the marker
you played homefront? or call of duty? bad company? half-life? goldeneye? have you only enjoyed fallout 3 in the last 5 years then? and crysis of course.

no, yes, yes, yes, yes, but just because other games are doing it doesn't mean thats a good reason to change your game from one of the things it was known for to something else.
The linearity is not the main issue its one of many contributing factors. There are linear games with decent AI and a good story and are therefore infintely better than Crysis 2.
Sorry, everyone's entitled to their opinion but this statement is just ridiculous. I don't what what game you're playing but it isn't Crysis 2. Whether or not it's as good-looking as Crysis/Warhead is debatable (it certainly looks a lot 'smoother' if you know what I mean) but it's still one of the best looking games available.
I can't comment on whether the gameplay's worse as I haven't played DNF, but personally I loved every minute of it after the slower first levels. It's a far cry from a 'corridor' shooter and actually affords you a lot of the freedom of the first game in much the same way.
The overstatements on this thread are hilarious.
