Wow, that's ridiculous. I just don't comprehend why someone would do that, especially with an unfinished game. I definitely still plan on buying it. Crytek deserves my money for making one hell of a game.
I actually was torrenting this earlier then decided not to since its only DX9, I'll just wait till its out I guess, perhaps the demo will give me the DX11 I'm searching for before I pass judgment.
It's just a debugging beta, and a horrible mistake. Someones life at crytek is over, that's for sure.
Can't stand a thief! Why would you ruin the experience anyway by playing an unfinished product?
It's likely to be nearly the same as the finished product so I doubt there's any "experience" that would be lost, although Crytek would be smart to include some new features in the retail game.

There's plenty to lose as far as NON-FINISHED game, I only wanted to get a peek at it, like I said, DX9, Debug mode. I wouldn't be surprised if it was absolutely the crappiest thing ever.

Well sure, it's technically not finished, but it's 99% of the way there. You can nitpick about that 1% that is missing but it's pretty much the game that you'll be buying in stores.
Developer Crytek and publisher Electronic Arts responds to news of the leak:
[quote]Crytek has been alerted that an early incomplete, unfinished build of Crysis 2 has appeared on Torrent sites. Crytek and EA are deeply disappointed by the news. We encourage fans to support the game and the development team by waiting and purchasing the final, polished game on March 22. Crysis 2 is still in development and promises to be the ultimate action blockbuster as the series’ signature Nanosuit lets you be the weapon as you defend NYC from an alien invasion. Piracy continues to damage the PC packaged goods market and the PC development community...[/quote]
Sounds like they're trying to play it off as a really buggy and unfinished version of the game, but I read that the leaked build is from early January, so it can't be too far off from current builds of the game.
Electronic Arts Said That The Crysis 2 Leak Is And "Unfinished build And That There disappointed by the news"
Really Sucks That This is Happening :(
But i think i wont hurt sales because its and unfinished build. also there is a snapshot of the build right here http://cdn.themis-media.com/media/global/images/library/deriv/46/46485.png
Im Pretty impressed by how fast its running on the persons pc but then again its dx 9.The Motion blur Looks over exaggerated but thats understandable and the sound problem but the final game will probably eliminate those problems :). Thnks for putting the gameplay up though i was wondering how the game was going to look like :)
Something really similar happened to Half Life 2, however Valve instead improved Half Life 2 alot even if their morales became low. Very unfortunate for Crytek either way.
I still dont understand how unreleased games can "leak" onto the internet. Who uploads it? How has anyone got a hold on it? I would have thought Crytek would somehow be able to stop these things from happening.

Well it could be a person from Crytek or a Crytek employee's close contact might've leaked it.
Either way, I'll just buy the final one and it'll be shit afterwards.
