i played the demo, big improvement over the first in my opinion the graphics are nice , very shiny and pretty, the destruction is fun, the weapons feel very nice to shoot, controls and reaction time have been enhanced, demo is available on steam, only takes about 5 minutes to download, demo gives you full acess to the game for 30 minutes once you leave the initial starting zone

I'm debating on getting this when it comes out vs. getting BF:BC2. I already have GTA IV and RF:G (which when put together are similar to this game), but I got bored with both quickly since all I like to do is mess around. I can never focus on the story in a game where you can do anything you want to. But, this is killer fun, esp. when you find the plane and Porsche 911-looking car with a turret on top :D I kind of hate how you can't do anything without getting the police involved.

Yeah, that is it doesn't spin out of control while you're on it :laugh:

If someone doesn't know how to do it: shoot the one that looks like an oxygen tank and grapple onto the top of it, where the release knob would be. I didn't know that and was trying to grapple onto the side of it, wasn't working well.

Really? I didn't know that. Has anyone notice that the physics in this game (destruction, etc) is really good.

# Internet Connection: Internet connection required for product activation.

Why do they keep doing this? Not everyone has the internet but might still want to buy this game, and its unfair that people should have to mess about activating there product on somone elses pc. < security risk if you ask me.

Shame because the game sounds pretty good but i will not buy it just for the fact it needs online activation.

Erm, if you face a security 'risk,' from connecting to one of these publishers sites, then, that's either a freak incident, or you've got networking issues.

This is not a big deal, and only slows down pirating, nothing more, it's sure working for Ubisoft right now with Assassin's Creed II. You should read some of the desparation blogs by people who are going haywire that the "Scene," have had to give up and try a new method of cracking it.



Game looks worth playing, demo is a nice option! However, I'm already getting flashbacks of Farcry.

Yet the game is broken, not what I called effective cracking.

If they can bypass the DRM altogether that's one thing, but until they do, they've failed. Each day the game sits on the market without a way to pirate it, that's a huge victory for PC developers and publishers, and it's not hurting anyone but those trying to pirate it.

And then they can drop the price down by half, still make a margin, but score a killing in sales, because people are so fed up of not being able to play, that the idea of paying 25 bones for a game is not only achievable but acceptable.
Imagine if Crysis was never cracked, and they discounted the game? $$$

Though I could do without games requiring STEAM to run. I really am against any software on my machines that doesn't need to be there. I was sorely irked that I need steam to continuously update Aliens vs Predator, just in hopes that the new patch reduces all the DX11 crashing.
