It was pushed back 24 hours so that people would preorder the game from EA so that they could play the demo today. Altho i doubt it's worked because most people don't want to use EA to preorder the game from specially as theres a 6 month - 2 year (if you pay extra) limit on the download.

You guys are pathetic. It's only 24 hours and it's only fair that the pre-orders get to play it first.

EA wants to make money out of this demo aswell by giving preordered gamers to play it 24hrs early. Ive been waiting for this game for years and EA had to delay it one more day because they couldnt simply deliver the demo 24 hrs earlier as promised to the pre ordered customers. Very mature, EA. Im sure Crytec CEO must be tearing his hair off of his head wondering why he signed up with EA... poor guy

I hate the way EA work. Can't even get a bloody demo out when they say they will, sacking employees, remaking the same games with an updated roster every year - the list goes on. If EA lost their lincenses for FIFA and that they would have some serious problems and may have to try to make good games and try not to piss their customers off so much. To quote Mark Corrigan, their a bunch of Dickpoles

I can't believe some of you can't wait an extra day..Jeez, that's pretty damn sad. How long has this game been in development? One more day ain't going to hurt anybody.

not any worse than the medieval II total war demo debacle.

but really, these companies making such a fuss over a game demo? trying to squeeze every penny they can from people and all they end up doing is piss em off.

i wonder how many sods are pre ordering just to get the demo now so they don't have to wait another day. =P

I bet people will be disappointed they can't run on max settings even though Crytek already said that it will scale forward two years. And it's a demo, I have no doubt Crytek will deliver in the final retail version after Far Cry.

Yeh i have the esact same system they used to run Crysis on late 2006 and they had perfect framerates and yet in the MP beta i was getting poor framerates and that didn't even have all the options enabled for the beta and had no AA yet. I really hope thats just the crappy MP and not the single player because i don't see how a build a year on could perform worse than a build a year ago.

You guys are patheticGodLovesDead
Lots of fuss over a simple demo, I don't see why people waste so much energy on complaining about it Sure, EA sucks, no doubt about it. The list of things there is to complain about them is endless. People have been complaining about them for 10+ years, no matter how many people complain they're not going to change
It's only 24 hours and it's only fair that the pre-orders get to play it first.GodLovesDead
Why? A demo is for persuade people to buy the game, not to piss off those who haven't bought the game yet. A demo has always been there to try to get people to buy the game, by showing them what the game has to offer, but stunts like this has the opposite effect as it makes people angry at them (and therefor less likely to buy the game) If they made two demos, one for the public and one for those who pre-ordered the game (with one extra level), then fair enough, but release it on the same day

Everyone should be able to sample the same gameplay. The 24-hour thing doesn't bother me, it was just a cheap marketing scheme to get anxious and naive people to preorder the game from EA.

A preorder should entitle you to nothing but the gurantee that you get a copy when it's released.

agreed, i was so excited to get this, and play all day. but we have always known EA sucks. they never put anything new in their games.... and since they control the market they are free to do what they wish i guess. but it still sucks. i do agree that the demo should persuade people to buy the game . but i highly doubt people will be let down. this is farcry on crack with BETTER AI. the only people who wont like it are those with week computers and bad gamers who cant play the difficulty level. but i am still buying this game

Torrent is probably going to be the best way to get it because of exactly what you said. gameupdates.org is a good one.
