Community Q&A Part #1
In the last monthly update we encouraged you to send in questions for our new ongoing Community Q&A feature. Due to the huge amount of questions we had to pick a few from the list which we have answered in our first part below. Within the upcoming weeks more we are going to answer more of your questions, so just keep on posting them in your favorite forums.
Here are a few of the questions involved with both Crysis and Warhead:
8. People keep saying Crytek haven't stopped supporting Crysis, how does Crytek plan to support Crysis? (Alcoholic1, Crymod.com)
Answer: We have our official modding portal, up and running – a great meeting place not only for modders, but also for all who are interested in playing new, custom content. And of course, your dedicated community management teams are still here and active in our official forums and fansite forums.
9. What percentage of the game will be completely new levels/maps? (Armoured, Crysis-Online.com)
Answer: The Singleplayer campaign will feature entirely new levels which you haven’t seen or played in the original Crysis.
10. Will you play the whole story over again, but with Psycho? (tolgapaksoy, Crysis-Online.com)
Answer: With Psycho you will encounter a completely different story on the other site of the island which is quite dramatic, full of action and more intense and explosive than what you experience with Nomad.

Warhead Exclusive: AY-69 Introduction
Exclusively featured in this update for the community is the recently introduced AY-69, one of the new weapons which will be featured in Warhead.
Technical Specification
Magazine capacity: 40
Bullet type: AY-69 special bullets
Fire modes: Can be dual wielded (right button fires right weapon, left button fires left weapon)
Description:
The AY-69 is a close combat weapon with high damage output on short range. Due to its high fire rate but low accuracy its preferred operational areas are urban environments and inside buildings. Once picked up the weapon replaces the SOCOM hand gun by allocating the first weapon slot in the players’ inventory.
