Cry-Alex Assistant Project Manager	Crysis Weekly Update #10 Welcome to the “Crysis Weekly Update #10”, an official status report from Crytek to the world-wide community in order to get you up-to-date on the progress of various Crysis related topics. The today’s update is about introducing you to a new patch that is in development for Crysis. In addition we also address the mysterious “Hash Mismatch” issue which is responsible for kicking players from online servers. Also we give you the chance to frag us on the official Crytek test server. And last but not least we also got a brand new episode of our Crysis outtakes prepared for you. Crysis – New Patch in Development In an earlier weekly update we already confirmed that Crytek will continue working on patches for Crysis and supporting the community with new updates. Currently our Multiplayer dev team is fully concentrating on the upcoming Patch 1.3. It has been in development for quite a few weeks already, but we do not have a release date available just yet. As for the content we can already say a bit, but not that much. The patch will not only include bug fixes and further gameplay balancing, we will also introduce new features to it. Unfortunately we cannot tell you too much about the content at this point, but be sure to not miss out the upcoming weekly update next Wednesday since it will include more news and details on the content itself. Crysis – Frag Crytekkers on Official Gaming Server In the last update we have introduced the official Crysis gaming server to the community. Since then, many people have played on the server which allowed us to collect valuable data that helps us improve the stability of the dedicated server. Now we would like to intensify the stability test with the community with a focus test on the server. Play together with developers from Crytek at a specific time and try to frag us as often as possible. With this we want to check the server load and test various scenarios. Please find below detailed information on the server and when this test is taking place: Server Name: Crytek Testserver v1.21 Server IP: 212.6.249.99:64087 Time: Tuesday 8th of April, 2008 – 8:00PM CET (GMT+1) Additional Information: PB & internal cheat protection enabled; requires patch 1.21 *Take your chance and see if you can compete with the Crysis developers!* Multiplayer Server – “Random Client Kicks” Update Based on the data from the Crytek game server we evaluated we already detected the origin of the issue that is causing the servers to randomly kick clients with the message “Hash Mismatch”. It is related to a problem of the internal anti-cheat solution in conjunction with the “lowspec.pak” file of the Crysis server installation. Currently we are working on a fix for this issue which probably will make its way into patch 1.3. In the meanwhile we would like to provide you a workaround for every Crysis server host. It has been tested successfully on Crytek’s gaming server and should help getting rid of many of the client kicks. Add “sys_lowspecpak = 0” to your server configuration. Also it is not recommended to delete any .pak files from the Crysis installation. Users will be kicked for a hash mismatch then as well if you have the internal anti-cheat solution enabled. Video Series – Crysis Outtakes #4! And as usual for every Crysis Weekly Update we have prepared a new part of the “Crysis Outtakes” especially for you. In this video it is about being amongst the living dead… So that’s it for the tenth Crysis Weekly Update from Crytek! We hope you enjoy the information and thanks for your continued support. Do not miss the next update on Wednesday!

DeadlyArtist Beginner	I notice in the picture that players are not showing up on the radar while shooting.Have our prayers been answered will crysis really become the tactical game it was made to be its seems that way thanks for the update. Having the ability to turn this feature on or off will be a great addition to crysis and help this game out tremendously. Being able to have true one on one battles with out everyrone pin pointing your fire fight will truly bring back the multiplayer community. It also looks like a teamdeathmatch multiplayer session.

No1 1000 Trained Modder	Niiice. Good to hear another patch is in the works, too, even if we don't know anything about it yet... at least now we can speculate--I think. That round will be at ... 3 PM EDT [GMT -5]. Okay, cool. Any idea what maps you will be running? IA/PS? __________________ This post has been edited 1 time(s), it was last edited by No1 1000: 02.04.2008 18:40.
