Well, downloading is stupid. 1st - you became a thief 2nd - you can't play MP via original servers 3rd - you have problems with cracks ! It's too bad that Crysis is on torrents before 'day 0' ;/

@pre-load is when you pre-order box version but you can download it earlier so you can play as first, don't need to wait for package with game ?

i knew this would happen as soon as i saw that ea were allowing pre loading of the game, EA's greed has caused this, Crytek should never have gone near them.

Well but they did and there is nothing we can do about it .

Anyone feel they use torrents legitametly?

I cant help to think they make me buy more games when i've tried them, im not going to download Crysis its out in a few days, going to buy it then. ofcourse lots of torrents are bad/illegal though. But to be honest if you like a game that much you might aswell buy it to play on the original servers etc.
Always better to have your own copy. The most of people that will download Crysis will either be people that are to young to buy it, or people that are out of pocket, or people that just want to try it before they buy it, considering some rumors of the game supporting 4 cores/ different from the demo and want to know what they are getting, if its ok for their rig, i wont have and trouble with that or i may have thought of trying it first.
Either way i think(well i hope!) Crytek and microshaft still get the profit's they want.
So they still support the game and release patches as it gets older.
