Crysis Monthly Update #1 is online, the first of these regular updates from
Crytek about their shooter since they shifted from a weekly schedule. The update
elaborates on recent indications that console development is in Crytek's future
(
story), describes efforts at fixing multiplayer disconnect
issues, and promotes an upcoming community Q&A session. They also offer the bad
news that they have put development of a dedicated
Crysis Linux server on
hold because they are not happy with the state of the project, and that for
reasons they are unable to disclose at this time, "there almost certainly will
not be a patch 1.3 delivered for Crysis," in spite of the knowledge that this
will disappoint a good number of users:
So, What About Patch 1.3?
At this time, there almost certainly will not be a patch 1.3 delivered for
Crysis. We are aware that this news will disappoint many of you, and we would
like to apologize profusely. There is a good reason for this and we hope you
understand when you hear more about the reasons why in the very, very near
future. Please realize this was an extremely difficult decision, but please do
know that we are listening to your comments and are making more consistent
community support a high priority.
We are confident that the things we are working on will be appreciated by the
community, and we hope for your continued support. If you have any questions or
concerns please feel free to contact us.
