Just the kind of sensationalism that keyboard warriors (no names mentioned from here)

Most of the drama did come from the insstall issues, however theyre also claiming that crytek stated in a vid from e3-2010 that the game would ship with dx11 support out of the box, iv'e watched the e3 presentation and the only out of the box feature they mention is stereoscopic support. I think theres some crossed wires there in the article.
It's a completely stupid summary to an article anyway. It's an article on the DX11 features and high res textures so if he's all grumpy about the fact that it wasn't there in the first place, or just doesn't like the game for whatever reason, why start winging about it all over again? It's factually incorrect in places as well. All that article is is sloppy sensationalist journalism.
Yeah one look at the OCP comparisons between DX9 and DX11 shows that the DX11 update is nothing more than a rushed bolt-on to a console title, the gameplay still is poor and linear, I can live without the tessellated low res walls lol.

We really should ban you from saying anything with "console" in it.
What did you expect from the patch, a completely new game?
Something wrong with you? The patch was mainly for enabling dx11 and hi res texture support. Last i checked a patch mainly for graphics wasn't going to completly rewrite the game.

Yeah this is what I thought.
Raven seems to be confusing graphics enhancements with AI which is more to do with cpu, isn't it lol
?I expected DX11 to be built in the game from the start and ready to play with when I purchased the game and not wait nearly four months for some poorly put together pack that offers little over the original game. And why are you so hurt about anyone claiming crysis 2 is anything but a console game ported to the PC when it so obviously is, the PC was never the lead platform like say BF3 is on the PC, crytek kicked the PC gamer in the nuts with crysis 2, any PC gamer can see this and the non mainstream gaming press did as well.
I'm just stating the flaws with game are still there and even no dodgy DX11 update can disguise that, I can't honestly see why anyone would defend crysis 2 as a good PC title.

We know the flaws are still there, the discussion is about the updates, not stuff people have been flapping their gums about since the leak in january.
Just like when dice kicked the PC gamers in the nuts with BF BC1 never coming to PC then BF BC2 being a port. Crytek have been about PC gaming since 2004 with far cry and Crysis 2 is not a console port as it is the best looking game the world has seen ATM
so i don't know what you are getting at
because its good, they developed across platforms simultaneously. The new update makes this game one of the best looking in recent memory. What game looks even close?
Have to say i agree with you.
Exactly. Bored of people winging about the same things.
Runs great on my 5850s and the addition of tessellation looks great.

Wolvers how is the performance with one 5850? I have a single 5850 aswell and would really like to know. Btw is 950MHz core speed? That is impressive
