Re: Crysis = thumbs down (spoilers)

I encountered two huge bugs during the game...
1) The ice level upon exiting the alien structure, when we must run from cars on fire to another one so Prophet can heat up... I ran around for 1h figuring out what I had to do, because, THERE WERE NO FIRES! After I restarted there they were...

2) In the alien structure, I managed somehow to go THROUGH a wall and end up at the entrance in the cave, where you fought the Korean general just before. I again lost another hour there trying to find an exit, then replayed, and there you go...

The AI have been awful in a very good number of games so far and I wasn't expecting much more. Even on high settings the game was immensely beautiful, but I was left on my appetite a lot after I beat it... I was like "hell yeah, we're going back in the Sphere, this is gonna be awesome!" And then... CREDITS!!!!!!!?????????

Even if EA publishes they have a say in the process... and they give the actual support. So as usual, EA is to blame for something going wrong

Re: Crysis = thumbs down (spoilers)

Not too hard to imagine some suit at EA might have told them, "This game will kick off a huge franchise guys... give Crysis an ending that'll keep 'em hungry for the sequel..." I think it's highly plausible.

Far too often something negative creeps into games EA publishes - whether it's excessive copy protection, dumbing down features or content, or inspiring sequel-itious with unfinished shorter games, EA is always looking to maximize profits... it's always about the money.. they're pretty smart about it too because most gamers apparently don't even notice or care. Thankfully forum threads like this one where gamers express their true opinions can sometimes make a little difference (not that I consider the news about Bioware's newly revised activation scheme significantly more palatable - it's still crap).

Can anyone honestly deny Crysis is a incomplete and unfinished game? Would it still be the same if EA didn't push it out when they did? Maybe... but things have changed in PC gaming and few developers can spend the necessary time to truly complete a game with cutting edge features or graphics. With EA holding the checkbook I seriously doubt Crytek had the luxury to do all they wanted before release.
