Crysis is an epic masterpiece combining the best of Science Fiction and First Person Shooters. It's the game everyones talking about, why you may ask, well, read on and you'll find out.

Crysis is the follow up to Crytek's first game and blockbuster, FarCry. Crytek has learned a lot since they made FarCry, they've learnt what was good about FarCry aswell as what was bad about FarCry.

So, what happens when you take the good, change the bad and then mix it up in to one big pot. You guessed it, you get Crysis.

Crysis will revolutionize gaming in more ways than one. It will give the gamer a whole new level of realism (thanks to the graphics) and will change what people call "immersive gameplay" (thanks to the gameplay and dynamics). Here is a summery from EA of what they say are "Key Features" of Crysis...

    Multiplayer - Connection Problems & workarounds 4 Years, 6 Months ago Karma: 23  
    New community message from Crytek about issues regarding playing Crysis Multiplayer online. They say that this has highest priority for them now and they hope to come up with a solution as quickly as possible. Read more to find some workarounds.

    QUOTE:
    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.


    Some workarounds that might fix the issue:


    1. Enable Punkbuster


    To be able to join any Punkbuster protected server you would need to enable it manually ingame.


    1. Please start Crysis.
    2. Go to Options -> Game Settings.
    3. Set a mark at "Punkbuster Protection".
    4. Click on "Apply" and confirm the change.


    2. Update Punkbuster


    To update Punkbuster please download the PBSetup.exe file from here. Execute the file and follow the instructions.


    3. Do not use Crysis Beta Keys


    Do not use the Crysis Beta Keys since they have been disabled. You still can login with this Key, but once you try to join a server the "Server Authentication Failed" error message pops up.


    4. New InGame Account


    1. To create a new ingame account please start Crysis.
    2. Click on "Multiplayer" -> "Internet Game".
    3. The login window pops up where you click on "New Account" and follow the
    instructions.
    4. If you have an automated login please delete the "Crysis" folder in "..\My Documents\My
    Games\".
    5. Afterwards you will be able to login manually to Multiplayer and thus create a new
    account.


    5. Re-Enter the CD-Key


    1. First of all please go to "..\My Documents\My Games\" and delete the whole "Crysis"
    folder.
    2. On the Crysis DVD please open the folder "Tools" and double click on
    "Crysis_code.exe".
    3. If you have the download version you can find the .exe file here:
    C:\ProgramData\Electronic Arts\EADM\cache\{number}\crysis_seX\tools
    4. In the case you do not find the file use the windows search tool. Make sure you search
    in hidden folders as well and search for "Crysis_code.exe".
    5. Re-Enter your CD-Key in capital letters and click "OK" afterwards.
    6. If you launch the game now everything should work as intended.


    6. 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.


    We apologize for the circumstance and thank you for your patience.

    Regards,

    -alex
