Ok, this was confusion. My version of Crysis was listed as 1.1.1.6115 even after installing patch 1.2.

1.1.1.6115 doesn't look like a 1.2, so after trying to repatch, I uninstalled and tried again. Sure enough the patch looked like it took, but still, the version number is different than the patch I was trying to apply.

So, I foolishly assumed that clearly I'm doing something wrong. 1.1.1.6116 sure isn't 1.2.

But wait, 1.1.1.6115 IS the version you get when you apply patch 1.2. Oh that makes lots of sense - what genius came up with this crazy system!!


Sorry, had to vent. Blew an hour on this foolishness.
