It's okay. I forgive you and your opinion, since you keep saying how sorry you are. That said, Crysis has never been about the gameplay. It's always been about the visual spectacle. Enemies always had a stupid AI, and to be honest, every single shooter out there except for FEAR has a brain-dead point A to point B AI. Welcome in the modern gaming world.
I have no idea whatsoever what your intentions were with this game other than be blown away by its graphics. Also, the core shooting mechanics are nothing short of excellent. Same goes with the outstanding sound design. And really, you're probably one of those guys who moans about how the AI returns to its behavior after spotting you. You'd prefer facing a pseudo-realist AI that will send reinforcement waves after waves until you're dead or couldn't be found within ten minutes of real time? I bet you do.
Finally, no one asked you to purchase this game. You prefer Crysis 1? Then play it for Pete's sake. Games are entertainment. They're meant to amuse and distract. They're not built from the ground up to entertain your own little laundry list of specifications.

No one asked you to read this guys post and get all pissy about it either. lol.
To say the Crysis games are not about gameplay, and that it would be stupid to buy a Crysis game for any other reason than to stare at the graphics is pathetic, and a clear sign of the problems with the industry in regards to innovating gameplay. It's like the new PS4 launch titles, all anyone talks about is the graphics, not realising that these games are the same we've been playing for the past 8 years, the new Killzone being the prime example.
Perhaps his 'laundry list' of specifications is simply for the game to live up to and perhaps surpass the original, as games are suppossed to progress over time, yet Crysis never much has beyond the graphics. Your comments on the A.I only confirm that. You also presume to know a lot about the OP considering he's posted once. I'd then presume, considering you hold FEARs A.I in such high regard, that you haven't kept up to date with shooters within the past SEVEN years, and would thus take your opinions with a pinch of salt.
To actually attempt to bash the OPs points regarding gameplay with the argument that you shouldn't buy the Crysis games for anything but the graphics is just absolutely ridiculous imo. The fact you consider the completely standard shooting mechanics to be 'excellent' is more so.
In fact it is THE best example of what is wrong with the industry today I've come across in quite some time. Congratulations, you are the lowest common denominator. Well done.
