My Crysis gives me a error like version mismatch. I have the most recent version and have tried the others but it still doesnt work. Any insight?

I remeber Frontier. Funnily enough I have been telling my son about it and trying to find somewhere to download a copy recently, but I can never get it to work on my Vista machine. Does anyone have any ideas about that?

Oh, possibly. Google tells me Elite II had bugs aplenty too, though, like the “wormhole” bug which let you travel vast distances in a single jump so long as they were multiples of 635 light years…

I remember it well… being very reliable.

Perhaps you’re confusing it with the widely lambasted release of Frontier: First Encounters, which WAS tremendously buggy.

I’ve had less troubles with Crysis than I have with other games recently. Gents, if you’re running Forceware 169.0x, don’t expect other games to work well. STALKER and Oblivion repeatedly crashed and bluescreened on me ’til I reverted to Forceware 163.71.

I’m completely unable to connect to any Crysis MP servers – I just get a nice red “Server authentication failed” message.

Feh. I’m not one for MP really anyway. I play the occasional game of TF2 and ET:QW though. =)

I’ve been playing Crysis MP all weekend without any bother at all. I’m a bit bummed that so many people seem to be having trouble because i’ve been having a LOT of fun with it. After the screw up that was FarCry MP i was really relieved that – as far as my experience went – all was rosy with Crysis.

In all seriousness I’ve really been enjoying the MP power struggle maps. I even turned down a coop evening with my clanmates in ArmA to play it and those RPSers who know me will appreciate how big a deal that is :D

I really hope this is fixed promptly as the modding potential of this engine in MP is outstanding.

Haven’t even dabbled with the MP yet, as the SP is giving me plenty of headaches. I’ve been in touch with their tech support for a few days now, but it’s still unresolved. Hey ho.

Knowing how much content the betas had is there any need to buy the game?

Games are a little more complicated now than they were in the ‘good old days’.

You do? Personally, I remember the days when games got released riddled with problems that were either never fixed or only fixed by sending off for a floppy disk from some obscure distributing centre in Rotherham.

Does no one remember Frontier: Elite II?

Ahh yea the problems are a bit annoying, but still the MP is awesome. Havent had as much MP fun since BF2. Mixes BF,CS, and C&C Renegade X Nanosuit, and Crysis goods = win in my books. XD Still connection errors annoying.
