Crysis 2 Multiplayer Demo Available for Download
It’s here!
Sure, a near-complete beta version of the entire game may have been leaked last month leaving EA and Crytek ‘deeply disappointed,’ but that hasn’t stopped the two studios from releasing the multiplayer PC demo of the game.
The demo clocks in at about 1.6GB and includes two maps, Skyline and Pier 17. The latter is more open, while the former is a skyscraper interior and rooftop map based in New York City. The demo also boasts two playing modes, Team Instant Action and Crash Site. Team Instant Action is a team-based deathmatch that sees either side compete for the highest body count, while Crash Site involves guarding alien drop pods and awards points for fending off enemies.
Crysis 2’s release is scheduled for March 22 (March 25 for European gamers), so you’ll have roughly three weeks of demo-time before deciding if you want to go and get the game on launch day. The complete version will have six gameplay modes and 12 maps.
Hit up EA to download the game.

We know it will play Crysis 2... but Cysis 2?
Sorry Jane, couldn't resist.
Finally, I want!
Woot! Dl'ing it now, can't wait to see how it performs on my PC. I would love a good challenge.
it would be nice if every one and ther mother wasnt spamming the site i cant even get it to do a new user ..
I've downloaded it, alright, but how the heck does one play this freakin' game??? It requires you to register and login, but after 2 hours I still can't create an account!!!
Damn, it's a demo, I should be able to start playing in 15 secs. This is what a call a bad start.
But can I run it?
Argh!!! 2 hours after downloading I still can't even create an account!!!!
This is a demo, ff sake! I should be able to start evaluating the game within 15 secons, not be put through this frustrating registration process!!!
I've read elsewhere that the Demo is very Consolish.. Including things like Aim-Assist being on by default.. WHY?!
I fear this may be yet another bland console port.. What happened to you Crytek?
Awesome!
Downloading now.
Press start to continue, autoaim, and average graphics. I'm so glad Crysis 2 is looking to be a complete console port.
Jizz.
I grabbed the demo last night but haven't installed it yet, the game looks promising from a gameplay standpoint.
The demo was pretty lame. This doesnt come as a surprise though as the first crysis wasnt that great either.
This was a bad idea for crytek. The demo seems like a shitty unfinished console port(dx9 only...). I'm not going to make any judgments on the game until the full version is released.
Unfortunately thousands of other people already have made their judgment on the game and will no longer be buying it.
Not extremley excited about Crysis 2 but wont hurt to see if my rig can handle it. They said its very optimized so we shall see if its a resource hog like Crysis was.
yeah, but does it play.... Oh nevermind.
canb it run crysis lol
You actually get 2 weeks of demo time, it ends at 11:59PM Pacific Standard Time (PST) on Sunday, March 13th (Subject to change)

Been playing this since this morning. It's not too bad... My only problem is that I don't like the nanosuit setup in comparison to the first one. The multiplayer mode also isn't as huge (in map size and player count) as the first, which is also disappointing.
good but whats thge dif betweent graphic modes Detailed i mean
playing right now ..But a little dissapointed about the graphics i thought it was going to be even better (btw im playing 1090*1080 on max settings)
I've waited SOOO long for this
Spent some time playing today. What a disappointment. Trying to figure out what was the bigger let down, this or MOH.
Where do I begin. How about "Press Start to Begin" screen.
TONS of Browser issues. No refresh, filters not working. No North American servers, when I did find few....NONE of them worked, everyone sat in the chat room waiting for game to start.
Auto Aim? REally
As for the game itself:
Graphics are worse than original Crysis
Game play is COD like (arcadish). There is no tacticis....run and gun.
And worse of all, blur makes you sick, literally. I got a headache within min of playing....made my eyes hurt.
Rest of the "class"/achievements/kill streaks etc is straight out of COD.
Map layout is weird, not a fan (again same as COD)
Overall, disappointed.
Good stuff, but no DX11 yet :-)
Cool, thanks TH!
Aim assist, are u phucin kidding me. Talk about dumbed down!
Feels, looks and plays like COD... I'm pretty open minded but it looks like this games been dumbed for the masses. To further that it says "Press Start to Begin" not a good sign for it not being consolized.
Guys, it was just reported that Crysis 2 will NOT ship with DX11, not even DX10. We are stuck on console-DX9 unless they get 'generous' and decide to patch it into the game at a later time. What is this, 2005 ?
What a slap in the face to PC gamers.
Screw Crytek, I am NOT purchasing this game.
It took me about 10 minutes to open the installer, and I'm not kidding. Wow.
i dunno about you guys, but i enjoyed this demo, very awesome gameplay/graphics. coming from BF, i dind't have high expectations for c2 multi, but was very pleasantly surprised. The stealth/power suit switch on the fly demands a lot of quick reflexes and skills x)
Nice, thanks for the direct link.
