    i really enjoyed reading the 13 pages of [edited] about the delay on that site, thanks for the link, hilarious stuff, i was also counting down the days until the demo but looks like it hit alot of people pretty hard :p

    best quote:"Crytek sure knows how to live up to their "huge surprise" guarantee. Maybe we should surprise them by not buying their game and their BS."

    What GPU do you have?

    You might want to bump the RAM up to 2 GB. Crysis may be up to 6 GB or so I've heard. What's the speed of your HDD?

    High settings...8800 GTS or higher would be my guess.

    Does sound kind of like BS. They must have broken something, or fallen behind schedule with something for them to not be able to release it. Oh well, guess I'll have to live with MP beta.

    I'm so disappointed. Oh well, at least they didn't delay the game itself, that would have been worse!

    I stated this in one thread and I'll state it again. Please do not share any information regarding the Crysis beta because you agreed not to by signing off on the NDA during the sign-up process.

    Edit: the posts I am posting in response to were deleted. Everyone else in here is fine.
