A PC Crysis 2 multiplayer demo will be available to download from 1st March, EA has announced.
The demo, which will be available to download from the Crysis 2 website, includes two maps and two modes, each setting up six versus six matches.
Skyline is set on top of the rooftops and interiors of skyscrapers in Crytek's crumbling New York, and Pier 17 is an open environment with limited cover.
Team Instant Action mode pits two teams against each other as they kill as many opponents as possible to win the round. Crash Site sees players battle for control of alien drop pods, earning points by guarding their pods and keeping enemies at bay.
EA's decision to release a PC demo of the upcoming shooter followed a raft of complaints from PC gamers about the apparent Xbox 360 exclusivity of the demo.
Meanwhile, EA reminded us that those who pre-order Crysis 2 will receive an automatic upgrade to the Crysis 2 Limited Edition, which includes four in-game unlocks for the multiplayer.
They are: bonus XP, the SCAR Hologram Decoy, the SCAR Weapon Skin and the Platinum Dog Tag.
At last!!
Edit - Downloading as we speak from Keefy's link nice speed of 1.3mbs nearly done. Will post a few screenshots if i get into a game tonight.

You can use it wired though. And it's also got the quickest polling rate of wireless mice making it pretty much identical to the speeds of wired mice weather your using it wired or wireless. I have mine wired most of the time anyway.

The game, and probably this demo, will not support DX11 out of the box. It requires a patch after installing..
So we won't be able to "fully benchmark" some of our rigs if they're DX11 enabled (like mine).

Whats the lowest spec in the options? becasue it runs like crap on all of them I bet its the stupid motion blur thats my problem.
Doesn't look amazing either.
I Don't like the lobby system and for some reason I am NAT strict whatever that is.

Lowest spec... Should be "gamer" I think? Does it have DX10 by the way?

Graphically I'm not impressed it doesn't hold a candle to the first Crysis but I understand it's an old build and a beta so I wasn't expecting much. shame all the lobbies are dead lol
Nope found some live ones

I like it!
Its very COD, but with a science fiction edge to it, which just makes it a more awesome version of CoD.
