There is a problem that i belive has not been mentioned here:
Even if you have 10 MB/s (note the big B), it wont help you if the people you play with have bad connections.
Also, its very well known that servers have a max capacity, so the games can become unplayable even with perfect scenarios.
By making this sort of statement, i belive crytek is just testing the waters to see what people would react to it.
However, if they didnt know already the answer to this, only shows how badly informed they are about what their consumers want.
This can be extrapolated to their games, clearly loosing some fans with crysis 2 and 3.
Crysis 1 was a winning formula, and it would be easy to focus on doing a crysis 2 the same way as the first (can you even imagine a crysis 2 with crysis 1 open word in new york?, a game where you can go any way you want and go into buildings, under them, above them, destroy them and walk throu the rubble...), Crytek would have covered themseves in gold.
That however required the power of a PC, so maybe, just maybe, we can see this now as Consoles have managed to close the distance enought to gaming PCs.
I sure hope so, or ill have to leave gaming behind... and its a dark sad world out there...

I don't play much on-line, and occasionally I don't even have the PC connected.
I do play FPS games, believe the PC is a superior product to the consoles, and am willing to pay for a fun game.
That I can play in single-player
Without having to connect on the internet.
If Crytek and the others go with the always online concept, as EA has with some of their titles, then I WILL give up the PC and gaming. There are other ways to combat piracy

Who the fuck does Yerli think he is?
There is a damn good reason people like me dont like playing multiplayer games online. Other arseholes that play multiplayer games online.
Why the HELL would i want to sit there and intentionally subject myself to 12 year old keyboard cowboys hurling abuse at me then crying because i stabbed them in the neck with a knife when they think i should be shooting at them with guns?
Why the shit should i be forced to use my bandwidth just so i can use something i have already paid for... is this arsehole going to pay for it?
Diablo 3 was bought for me for my birthday last year. I felt like a complete and utter arsehole apologising to my sister and brother in law after i threw it out after 30 minutes playing time simply because it didnt like a flaky (at the time) broadband account.
Stuff you Yerli. Ill now be looking up a list of your games, torrenting them, burning them all to tons of discs, and giving them away for free at my local shopping centre, in the hope that it negatively affects your income enough for your dumb arse to be forced out of business. YOU dont decide where the market is going, the GAMERS do. The sooner you buttmunches remember that the sooner the pirate market will disappear.

This always online crap is just getting way out of hand. I only play single player and could care less for any multiplayer at all. It just seems that they have run out of ideas on how to make a good single player story line or just to lazy to do it. So instead of a great single play AI they make multiplayer with no AI.
It seems I'm being squeezed out of gaming from all directions. And now this. I like gaming but I don't want to make a life out of it. I have other obligations that prevent me from committing enough time to any game to get good enough to compete with anybody on line. I know because I've tried. I get creamed instantly. My answer is to play single player FPS games off line against the computer. Sometimes I even use cheat codes or "trainers" as they're called today. If game developers get their way I'll have to find another hobby. It seems a shame to me but I doubt they care at all.
I wish I could believe as you do. Guys like this say things like this to build a consensus among their piers. Somehow they believe that I will adapt to what ever makes them the most money. They are subscribers to the Gordon Gecko theory: Greed is good!
