Crysis 2 PC Patch Removes Auto-Aim
There’s still no sign of a DirectX 11 patch, or a fix for the online activation issues experienced by some unlucky folks, but Crytek’s first PC patch for Crysis 2 does include one notable change that’ll please hardcore PC gamers.
Auto-aim has been “completely removed” in the first PC patch due to “overwhelming community feedback”. In addition, Crytek has introduced cheat detection, to prevent any nefarious client-side shenanigans from spoiling the multiplayer experience.

Sadly it is still a CoD clone, consolefied game. The first one had a more complex and usable suit and not to mention the lack of graphic options from the squeal to the most graphical intense game made.
Why would they put Auto-aim in the PC version in the first place ? That is just plain stupid.
“Remove Auto Aim – This has now been completely removed due to overwhelming community feedback”
Really? It took a huge community outcry to get that changed? Crytek, have you COMPLETELY forgotten who you used to build games for?!
I want to like Crysis 2, I really do, but these blatantly obvious console-oriented compromises are really frustrating.
Haven’t played Crysis 2…the first one was OK. (with auto-aim)
