according to this .....

What was a surprise was game's performance, enhanced by major optimization to the Crytek engine. According to Crytek, the demo I played was running on a PC that cost about $700, with two gigabytes of RAM and an Nvidia GeForce 8800GT, at 1280 x 1024 resolution and high detail settings. And it looked terrific, running at what looked like about 30 steady frames per second. Crytek's goal in optimizing the engine was to make solid performance available to the average user on modest hardware. They plan to release official recommended PC specs for Warheadnext week.

so why have they not updated crysis with an amazing patch ?
 
I'll belive it when i see it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!............

Crysis just got worse and worse for me the futher i got into the game! i gave up in the end! might go back to it one day.
 
They've confirmed that they will eventually patch the original crysis with the fixes implemented in warhead.

That was my main complaint, i spent a good 20 mins configuring crysis so it ran JUST RIGHT, then when i got to the snow level it just went all wrong and i had to reconfigure everything, the boat was even worse. Even if it was terrible performance throughout at least then it would have been consistent and i wouldn't have had to jump into the settings menu every now and then to tweak bits.
 
Theyre considering updating the original game to take advantage of the enhancements. The interview i read a while back they stated their priority was to get warhead out the door first.

Its probably in their interest though, could generate a good few more sales if the word gets about performance has increased. Plus they could put some sort of online verification thing in the update for a short term piracy solution.

Where did you read that anyway?

Theyve not really confirmed anything yet. To quote Cevat yerli:

Despite having stopped patch support for the original Crysis (PC), Yerli said these optimizations could eventually make their to the first game. "That will take a long time, because the fixes are fairly profound," he noted. "We are still in the process of the steps, but first we want to conclude Warhead."

We are all reading this correctly, right? Running at 1280 x 1024, high settings with what felt like 30fps.

Crysis already runs on high at that resolution at what feels like 30fps on a 8800GT. It's Very High at more modern resolutions that makes everyone go bananas.

Well ea are apparently bringing out a pc for warhead based on the specs of the pc it was developed for and demo'd on. Can only assume its capable of running it at full grunt.

http://uk.gamespot.com/video/6197296 (from 4 mins to around 12, gameplay then they mention the pc around 8 mins)
 
I still don't get this. With my spec in my sig I ran crysis all the way through on Very High with little slow-down on 1280x1024..
 
And still no confirmation on the release date, all the UK stores are saying the 26th. EA are saying the 12th for uk\europe and 16th for everywhere else. One of the crytek reps is meant to be finding out from EA what exactly is going on but no word back yet.

:confused:
