Success! - Multiplayer working

Hi there folks!

Five days and numerous re-installations later the multiplayer part of the game is working now. At least it works for me, but everyone should try if you are able to play it too. Somehow it started to work today and i didn´t do anything to solve the problem.

I think EA / GameSpy finally found the problem or part of it and fixed it. I truly hope that all you who have been visiting this blog have now 100% working multiplayer.

I have to thank all the posters and commentators for participating this annoying issue we have faced with. I keep the blog alive for the backup if something new and interesting pops out. I hope you still visit site regularly to give comments, both negative and positive about this game.

If you are still having problems now it is time to update your punkbuster and enter your cd-key for the very last time. I think it actually works now!

Take care,

maxtuska

Multiplayer - Info on Connection Problems

Hi there mates!

There is some new information regarding the multiplayer problems, posted by Crytek’s Community Manager Alex Werner.

Greetings Community!

We just would like to let you know that we are aware of the currently occurring issues regarding playing Crysis Multiplayer online. We are already in touch with Gamespy, EA and the world-wide server provider to resolve the problems. This topic has the highest priority for us now and we hope to come up with a solution as quickly as possible.

What we figured out so far already is that when you uninstall the MP Beta/SP Demo after you have installed the full version of Crysis your CD-Key might get removed accidentally. If this is the case please have a look at the workaround we provide further below. There is no guarantee that these work, but they have been helpful to many out there already.

> Mainly all he suggested is already tested with negative result. One solution is not tested though :

Add CD-Key manually to Registry

1. Windows XP: Start -> Run
2. Windows Vista: Start -> All Programs -> Accessoires -> run
3. Type in "regedit" (without "") and press Enter
4. Windows 32-Bit: Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\Crysis\ergc
5. Windows 64-Bit: Go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Electronic
Arts\Electronic Arts\Crysis\ergc
6. Check if your CD-Key is available as value in the right window. If not
double-click on "(Default)" and type in the key without "-" and in capital letters.

TESTED : MY KEY IS THERE. NO CURE THEN :(

Why this blog?

I am releasing this blog because of the issues online gamers are facing with Crysis. The majority of gamers have problems with the multiplayer part.

I myself am having exactly the same issues. That is why i am keeping this blog, to inform u how the things are going on here, to gather the key points of available issues. Hopefully EA will also do its own part of this big hassle we are facing with.

At the moment i am not able to play Crysis multiplayer online.
