Crysis 2 demo problems(pc)

Did anyone else play it today? Because every match that I joined never launched or even displayed the timer.

And it looks like this bug is everywhere, as almost all matches aren't launching.
Thoughts?

I've had this, it seems the only fix is to keep trying on different servers. Eventually, you will find one that works. It is a little annoying, but I imagine it'll be fixed by the time the game is actually shipped.

Yeah. Apparently the game has to be full for a certain period of time before it starts or something.

Which is stupid, and really hard to do when you disconnect from every fucking server while waiting in the lobby.

i can't even log on!
I don't know what is going on, it says my network is not working but i can easily talk on skype / browse the interwebs...

Search games by ping. If you join one that has 0 ping, then they're still waiting in the lobby. Ones without that should allow you to jump into the middle of a game.

They're using a slightly odd hybrid of matchmaking and dedicated servers.

Its good fun though, runs really well too - although whenever I look in a certain direction on Skyline my fps cuts to like a third of what it normally is.
