Can't find any mention of a 1.1 patch for Crysis having been released

Greenboi · 5 Dec 2007 at 15:03

Course they will be, it'll have some fixes.

I hope these give us a 10fps boost in crysis.

Worth trying anyway?, someone give these a go and see if there is any sort of Crysis improvement for us without SLI

That's cause it's not and no release date given but if included in the new nvidia drivers then we can only hope the crysis patch is due any day now.

Yea, you never know may come true one day.

Thanks but doesnt 69.2mb seem rather large for a xp driver :eek:

edit just realised its the international version hence big file size..........

Thats a normal size, ATi drivers were bigger.

well im assuming as nvidia have inside info on crysis development the first crysis patch should be out within a day. pretty sure they wouldnt release drivers which require a patch UNLESS the patch is on the verge of release.

willhub · 5 Dec 2007 at 16:13

Cant wait for official Crysis patch, might be an excuse to play it again.

is the performance that bad for you? i have a q6600 @ stock, and 2 GT's, however until i get this extra long sli bridge i can only use 1 of them (both has S1's on them). and the framerate, with a modded cfg, is definately always playable.
