  Farewell guys

  Sadly, I have to leave you. Have a good time here, bunch of ignorant community, with 0% will to play. I stood with Crysis only because of one thing, but even that is now gone. This has no future for me, maybe for others yea, I don't want to demotivate.Freebo and maybe someone else takes leader-ship here probably. And also, guys, please, keep peace here and also in Crysis, that's all I want.

  Really? So soon ?... Or maybe it's just temporary breakedown (like I have here sometimes)? This is sad man. But I exactly know what you mean. I mean EXACTLY. We've talked about it many times so I'm not very surprised. I feel the same way sometimes here and some "parts" of community just make me quit. But why should I ? All was done for the game and fun with it and for few nice people that we know - not for ignorants, close-minded ones or players without respect for others. The thing here is - that 2 much work has been done during last 2 years for our game - No way I can just dump it into trash and forget about all that time - because of small bunch of people who don't care about anything. Those that you talk about. So you can be sure it will go on for years here - even with 10 players only - it will evolve and grow a bit every month - and you can always join and play in the future. No matter - incognito or with your real nick. It's for fun not for the glory like some players think. I'm not here also right now (November/December) - becaus of hard work on finishing old maps (that should have been finished long ago while we still had "old" Crysis). Sorry that I don't even start Skype lately but it's just not possible right now. I'd love to talk for hours as before (hope will next year) but every few hours on skype = some map or mod not finished again. So I'm off-line on Skype - till the end of 2014. The good part here is - 4 big maps will be finally finished thanks to it - so I guess it's worth. In 2015 I see the great future for Crysis 1 MP. I'm not sure about the amount of players playing new maps and new things. Probably will never be more than 30-40 because of ignorance, low hardware or something else that I can't explain - probably Mulder and Scully would do it better. But I'm really sure about our good old and few new friends who will always play here from time to time. At least on weekends. I will play more next year after finishing things here. I just can't wait to have things done and just relax, play and talk with people as before. It has been hard year but I'm sure it will be better soon. Besides next year will be the year of Crysis MP story movies, trailers, music videos - because those were my plans after finishing basic things with maps as I mentioned before. I need a break with maps and stuff - but this break will be based 90% on Crysis MP and Sandbox so for me it's really worth more than just depression because of few on-line ignorants in the community. They are not good enough to make me leave the game and all projects. Let's stick with great people and great things we have here. Sure - I'll keep my eyes on things here from time to time. You can relax and have longer break - for sure - before it will get better some day. As you know I've always planned to run Crysis MP for years after GameSpy's disconnection (had no idea it will be so soon though) - so now thanks to your programming skills - when all can really work independently and finally is ready - only EA or Crytek are able to stop me (because of some of their official reasons) from keeping it alive. Other issues, things or people just can't. This great thing just has to stay alive even for only few people who knows how to enjoy it. See you soon. We'll be in touch.

  I won't be online that much now, probably, I really need to take some break from this. Someday I will ofcourse maybe come back, and see, that there are more than 5 online players. There are ~640 users here registered, but only few are online, that's really sad and disappointing me. Players logics "That server is empty, I won't connect it" is very powerful now, and it's so sad, really, therefore there are almost 0 players, because of this logics. It was pretty much same on 1.2.1 while GameSpy still ran, but it wasn't this horrible, players atleast came sometimes. But that's not the only reason of my decision, I also want to have a little change in my life, so it won't be so stereotype, because Crysis is still the same now, event = new map, nobody comes, so there needs to be Refinery, but I hate that map already, it's overplayed, so I don't come. :) Good luck in future, maybe there will be more active players.

  Not sure about more than 5 players (human's mind is a mistery) but 5 will always play. I know them :) Anyway the rule of 1% works here also as you see. 640 registered users = around 64 players in this solution = around 6,4 players on server at the same time :) Let's just hope this 1% will always contain many nice people. It will be good enough. Take your time and use cry-vacations. It was really hard year here. I would hate playing Crysis also and would need a few months of break if I wasn't already not-playing for last months but working on things like some kind of maniac. So now I can't wait just for playing next year :) I will be on servers starting on january/february. Waiting alone or with others - but of course it will never be on Refinery, Aimmap or Poolday... At least this we can do. Those maps don't need promotion anymore. See you. BTW my BF3 server with password is still on-line and not used (played 14! hours during 14! months = money loss) - so if you need longer vacations from Crysis we can play there (3-4 players on small maps) one day of the week (starting in February 2015) at least no pressure like in here :). Crysis became kind of work for us - so even each gaming session ends with ideas for things to fix and another hours of work instead of mindless relax like most are using. Shouldn't be this way of course. In BF3 we can be just players who just don't care :) Fun, Fun, Fun... no brain required. I would love that for a change. We'll see.

  It was expectable you will take a break/leave one day. Understandable in your position, and community issues go crazy sometimes. Well, who could keep you here yet ? You have done a lot for Crysis and i´m really thankful you for it. I didn´t really expect it will be so great, when Gamespy ended in July. But with your "teamwork" and skills it´s done now and yeah, much better than old Crysis. And sure im going to be here as long as i´ll be able to, (whatever, i´ll always find myself a way to come even if i wouldn´t). So, thanks for your work Zi;, have a nice time, use it as best as you can, and hopefully, See You again one day ;).
