Christmas Community Update!

An early astonishing christmas present emerged from the Crysis Community. As this present is in the form of an update regarding questions from the community about Crysis Patches, queries relating to SDK and Linux Dedicated Servers, and much more. This is truly calming if not awesome news from the boys at Crytek; and with Christmas and New Year coming along the way they've delighted us with this update, that you may now feast your eyes on. Maximum X-MAS!
