Crysis leaked one week early....

[Atnevon]

I smell a baited tracker...just a hunch though. This is why I never download before releases are out.


w00t - 100th post

 

[hat]

Yeah, if I download something, I wait a good while after retail comes out.

 

[Richieb0y]

I could be swimming in a pool of cracked Crysis disks, I'm still going down to Target on November 16th and buying a legitimate/non-cracked version of Crysis, as I feel that it's worth every penny.

helajuha too that im getting it on the 15 nov and mabye a SE if its there

 

[GLD]

My 2 pennies is why in the world would you want to dl this? It is positively illegal and possibly tracked, liked mentioned earlier. We all know that tracking is a reality, blah, blah, blah. I don't want the internet police knocking on my door.

I hope to be getting my copy of Crysis for free at nVidia's GeForce LAN 4/Crysis launch party, that I am attending. It has not been confirmed that the game will be given out, but I am hoping. I bet this is gonna be one bad arse weekend! If I don't get it at the LAN, well then I will buy it when I get back home.

I do not see why people are talking about tracked and monitored downloads as there are many other ways to obtain downloads other than using torrents / p2p that cannot be tracked eg usenet !!!

Those of you who say "it isn't real because it is not retail yet" is a load of crap. This is one of the most anticipated games of this year, so it is bound to make an appearance before retail. Doom3 leaked out onto the net weeks before its retail date.

For those of you that sate you will wait until the game is available in the shops are only saying so because you don't have a clue where to find it! If you were that enthusiastic about the game, you would grab a copy now, and the buy it when it hits the shelves.

So, just to set the record straight, this release works 100% as long as you have a 32bit OS. The 64 bit executable has not been cracked, so users with a 64bit OS will have to wait a little longer.

Peace

No, I don't download the game because it's morally wrong to do so...

First post and already insulting people, great start.

I know exactly where to find it, and could have it downloaded by tomorrow morning if need be, but I choose not to. I've played the game since BETA (both MP and the SP demo) and do not feel the need to go out and get it the second it hits the internet. It's still going to be there when it's released. Only I'll get the nice shiny shrink-wrapped one

 

[cdawall]

but your going to buy the game so what if you get it a week early and play it then buy the full version sounds to me like your chicken

 

[jaxxxon]

This installs and works fine. Just one problem for me, I get this weird bug where I press WAS or D to go in that direction, take finger off and he just keeps going. Anyone else get this. and is there a solution. Thanks.

Nah, I'd say he's being a good law abiding citizen who is doing his part to try and keep costs down for the rest of us, even if we are a minority.

I wasn't pointing fingers at anyone !!!

Besides, i only joined for that one post... seems this is the only place that is talking about this release!

bootlegging does nothing to change the cost.

you cant bootleg a PS3 and they cost over $400 the games are not bootlegged anywere near as much as PC games yet cost as much if not more. the cost isnt going to change just because we all stop bootlegging in fact more than likely the price will go up since it will be a complete monopoly of the goods. there are still more people who buy legit copies of a gmae than dont and they still make enough money that it shouldnt matter

 

[L|NK|N]

Hmm, you may have some points there, but I do know that if it costs a company more for a game they will raise the retail price. How about the anti-piracy measures/research? This could delay a game's developmental progress. They have to pay for that, it costs money. It's a butterfly effect. As a U.S. citizen you should also know that everytime we send a person to prison, court, or whatever for piracy, our taxes and what not are paying for that. While it may not come directly out of your pocket or mine, it does affect us in the long run.

 

[Chewy]

I dont see them being able to raise the price to much.. that would make pirated games even more popular.

Me I have my RS account and am dling the game.. (so I know it works), but I will also buy it when it gets released.. ah but as long as they dont do what they did with Bioshock.

the way i see it, even if we all stop pirating software, the companies will just make twice the money(if not more) and keep the prices the same, maybe even raise them. it's simple economics,
higher demand -> higher price.

so why should the US continue the plight against the pirates out there? there will always be another one cause they cant catch them all if they just gave up and let the pirates do there thing taxes would go down and since alot of people have those moral values its not like the entire world is going to pirate all of the games.

also it seems me and random are thinking the same thing if they stop pirating they will just keep prices were they are or raise them since you cant get the games anywere else

 

[Rob!]

My ETA is measured in thousands of days...this is ridiculous.

 

[cdawall]

its been 1hr and i have 1gb dl'd so 6hrs ish should be when its done

 

[SpookyWillow]

ha i got capped to 5mb/s :/ a quick change to the modem config and woot back to 20mb/s.....6mins to go

 

[HookeyStreet]

BTW guys, Ive got 'Crysis' on pre-order from CDWOW. Its all paid for and will hopefully be with me some time this week

IMHO, PC titles are worth paying for

Yes, the solution is to go buy the game on the 15th!

 

[newconroer]

|No, I don't download the game because it's morally wrong to do so...|

And allowing a thread which is only perpetuating piracy, isn't?

Hehe.

That's the same flawed logic used by people who think current illegal narcotics and drugs should be made legal. It's suggestive, or rather hopeful that people's morals would dictate an appropriate level of moderation. Hardly. Modern morals are near non-existent, and moderation is not a well exercised quality these days.

 

[cdawall]

there still happen to be people with morals and legal or not piracy will ALWAYS be there it changes forms from time to time but its still there and always will be im waiting for the 1st space pirates

You might wanan be careful cause one of the mods here WHO deleted my post for a cracked bioshock deleted it and gave me infractions when my link was to a BLOG. His lame infraction excuse was that i POSTED warez when my link was to a blog. Someone called Benthebenjiumin whatever. Oh i remembered. DanTheBanjoman

Anyone nice one here. Two thumbs.
