Absoloutely JAWDROPPING crysis map
- Thread starter Gerard
- Start date
All I want is 30fps, 30fps in crysis is very smooth and I'm happy with that 100% but the downside is 30fps cannot be maintained throughout the game and it chugs like a mofo as if its caching to disk even though it's not even utilising all memory.

Rofl 2x 280's getting 37fps, what a ******* joke eh. 
They have never said the engine is flawed. An engine isn't something you just throw together in a few weeks, it takes a lot of planning. They've there's performance issues for lower spec machines and that Warhead will support a wider range of machines. And that they might go back and update Crysis.
Do you honestly believe they re-wrote the whole lighting system in between that video and Crysis coming out? Maybe you think with your bumcheeks.
Adding textures to a game is completely different, you can always make higher res textures if you want. What are these config mods you speak about as well? Have you got a link to them?
There is performance issues with Crysis full stop, there is no such thing as lower spec machines or higher spec machines with this game, every machine runs it crap. Tri-SLI tests done in the past showed no considerable boost in fps over a standard SLI setup and standard SLI is barely better than non SLI in this game.
The engine IS flawed which is why they rewrote it and gave it more optimisations. Obviously they did not say it is flawed directly but the fact that they said it is possible to make Crysis as good as Warhead for performance but they won't any time soon means they know that it is currently not up to scratch and never was from the start.
They have not re written the lighting system, they have redone the engine so it performs better, this is what they have said. The Warhead videos do not look as good as the DX10 Jungle gameplay footage of Crysis we have seen before either. You just need to get this around your head tbh that Crysis and Warhead do NOT look as good and in the case of Crysis run as good as they initially told us it would.
My machine don't run it crap...If you want the game to run it well, don't crank up everything, and expect all bells and whistles to be blazing.
So saying no system runs the game and all systems run it crap...IS a load of tosh tbh
No there isn't performance issues. There's user issues because they believe they can just crank the settings all the way and expect 60FPS.
You said the lighting system was completely different in the video to the game. So if they haven't re-written the lighting system how do you know its completely different?
They haven't redone the engine either, that would cost millions and a lot of years work. They've updated the engine, the same way Unreal 3 is being updated all the time, Source and any other engine.
They told us all along that Crysis wouldn't be playable maxed. So they didn't lie about that. And I keep asking what doesn't look as good. You said the lighting, but now you're saying they haven't changed it. Then you said it was mods, so I've asked for these mods that have modified the engine to take a look at them but no links so far apart from another user, but I don't that's the mod you're talking about.
See what it pans out like.When I play a game I play with everything max, this is why I keep my system up to date every few generations of hardware and right now it "is" up to date with the latest OS and hardware so I expect all current games to run well and not have to drop a setting and my expectations are met except for this one game. It's made worse because we WERE TOLD Crysis would run great on HIGH settings or VERY high on the hardware that was out at the time but we all know this is nowhere near the case.
This is what I expect being a PC gamer, I won't settle for excuses of dropping a setting here or there especially on a Cinematic Single player experience.
It's funny because Crysis is the only game that has poor performance with high settings no other game runs slow.
So no, it's not tosh at all.
Do you ever read posts properly or watch gameplay videos? you can see CLEARLY in the Warhead gameplay videos that the lighting remains pretty much the same as Crysis, the graphics look the same too apart from NPC models look slightly higher detail and of course now the game looks like it runs much smoother.
It isn't rocket science...

http://www.crymod.com/thread.php?postid=325218#post325218 for the texture mod. I don't have any alt mirrors for the files, I just used rapidshare which gave 2.1MB/sec.
Yes it does, especially when the developer has later said there are underlying issues in the game engine performance wise regarding optimsations that are needed which has been fixed in the next game and "may" be patched in the current game and most especially when gamers were told they would get one thing and got something lesser.
Admiteedly Crysis even at 1920x1200 runs at 20-30fps on my PC mostly 25fps which I am fine with with the texture mode installed and settings files modified to unlock the nicer visuals. This is not the problem. the problem is optimisations. There is 100% no need for the game to randomly stutter to load a section which means it drops to single figure FPS then moments later go back to 20+ - this is the kind of thing I am on about here.
Wait wait wait...So...Because you have the latest and greatest hardware, the game HAS to run the best it can? Just because you have the latest hardware?
I'm afraid not
It doesn't really work like that sadly.

Riteo, I'll let you carry on then.
Crysis cripples your system, and you don't like it...I can understand that
I'm not having a dig by the way, just so you know.
But Crysis happens to be one of those games, that can hurt every system sadly. Have you tried playing around with any .CFG settings yet? To make the game run and look better...?

Have you been reading this thread the past couple of pages at all? I have clearly said Crysis runs slow on all systems. I have also stated it runs slow on mine but acceptable enough until it stutters. This is not my system being crippled this is the game engine not being optimised and this has been confirmed by pretty much everyone with a high end system playing on higher settings. Even on "HIGH" settings it still stutters randomly for no apparent reason. Read above, these are the issues Crytek said to have fixed in Warhead and judging by the videos this seems the case and we are no longer being shown graphics visuals that don't reflect actual ingame quality.
If it was JUST my system having this issue I would accept that my system was being crippled.
This is not the case....as some of us have been saying the past few pages if you read them through.
I have read most of the posts yes, but most of them are whining, and its late
yeah...I know it isn't only your system...That's my point
It cripples all systems out now, be they 'brand new' or like mine...'old'...Because it can.
You could say every game is badly coded one way or another, but I don't think crysis is THAT badly coded. Hell, I can make it run on my system and look damn nice to be honest, granted framerate can drop at points, but that's only natural in any game.

Sorry, I meant the mod that makes the lighting as good as the Dx10 video and any other visuals I seem to be missing.
And Crysis does run slow on all systems, where the user has tried to push the settings too far.
Crysis pushes the boundaries on all parts of the engine, size, lighting, physics, textures, models, animation, sound, literally everything is pushed to the max. And it will keep on pushing systems for years to come. If you're expecting a "quick fix" to performance, you're in for a long wait.
