The New Xbox 360 and PC demo hits today!

With only a month to go before the release of Crysis 2 – one of the most hotly anticipated games of 2011, EA and Crytek are pleased to confirm that a new Crysis 2 multiplayer demo for the Xbox 360 PC is coming today - March 1. Crysis 2’s dynamic multiplayer is built around the franchise’s signature Nanosuit, an advanced exoskeleton giving every player super powers that will allow them to be strong, be invisible and be fast on the battlefield.

Last month over 1.7 million players downloaded an early multiplayer demo on Xbox 360. Since then, Crytek has taken player feedback to help improve the experience even more.

All versions of the new demo will include two maps, “Skyline” and “Pier 17”, as well as two modes “Team Instant Action” and “Crash Site”. Crysis 2 multiplayer will include six intense, action-fueled gameplay modes: Instant Action, Team Instant Action, Crash Site, Capture the Relay, Extraction and Assault, set across 12 maps in Crytek’s visually stunning recreation of the Big Apple. Players will advance through a deep progression system of 50 levels, earning a variety of upgrades along the way for weaponry and the Nanosuit itself, rewarding long-term players with tactical advantages that increase their speed, strength and stealth abilities even more.

Critics have already provided high praise for Crysis 2 multiplayer, with Game Informer saying “Crytek's approach to using the Nanosuit in competitive play is brilliant” and Official Xbox Magazine reporting that “with it’s amazing new battlesuit, Crysis 2 gives you the weapons and the will to take multiplayer to a whole new level.”

As those that have been playing the Demo will have already found, a patch was released:

The Crysis 2 Mutliplayer Demo Patch for PC is now live and will auto-patch when you launch the game! The Steam patch will also be rolling out shortly.

Crysis 2 v1.2 Mutliplayer Demo Changes

* "Press Start to Begin" has been changed to "Press Enter to Begin" on the main menu

* Ping changes in server browser - no ping for anyone now (all 0) - "Crytek is working very hard to fix this for the shipping game"

* Fixed crash if getting force disconnected from a dedicated server (although the force disconnect issue has been resolved anyway)

* Account creation now works properly

* G35 headset fix now implemented

* People not able to sign in with certain characters such as "-" or "numbers" in their username, now can

Guess a lot of people couldn't find the "Start" Key... it's right next to the "Any" key :lol:
