*** New crysis 2 screenshots ***

Some of MW2 textures looked quite good, some a little under par imo. Though I do agree dx 9 still can look very good.

DX9 just can't do the lighting and shadow effects like DX10/DX11 though. That's where MW2 really falls short with it's graphics.
 
It looks nice... but... I don't think it looks any better than what can be done with Modern Warfare 2... and thats a 10 year old engine with some DX9 features tacked on top.

Wow, for that comment your on my ignore list. You can't compare these two games visually and to do so shows you really don't have a clue.
 
Although i would love to think those are in game shots, i highly doubt it.
I remember all the leaked screenshots of the original crysis that turned out to be nothing like the released game...
 
That water looks so pure i want to drink it!!

What picture are you basing that on? Because as you go further down a few photographs have crept in... it actually looks really fake in the top ones.

Hope you don't mean the photo of the marsh water. :p

Also, the artifacts on those snow rocks = vomit tbh.

Actual ingame shots - running at 100fps - on an engine that is literally 10 years old with DX9 features tacked on top... IMO not far short of those screenshots and with a little better art direction/level design probably just as good.

MW 1 + 2 are good looking but Crysis 2 looks miles better, and don't tell me you can't see it cause we all can.
 
Hmm, I don't want to have to think about upgrading before I've upgraded, hopefully the engine has been written a little better than the first...
 
Lol at the MW2 comparisions.

MW2 is mostly static prebaked old dx8/dx9 graphics, with some newer shading effects tacked on. Thats why it runs at 100fps.

Plus I'm suprised Rroff even posted those pics, they look crap.
 
I am sure i will enjoy the game in 2014 when it will run half decent :). No doubt we will have the whole "they program for the future" thing thrown arouond again to cover the fact they didn't code it that well really.
 
there is a official crysis 2 tech demo out there on the tube i'm having trouble finding it tho.

it did state that cry engine 3 will be optimsed for the pc and will not run off generic ps3 criteria. (i'll go look for the vid now)
 

another vid but looks a bit rough round the edges if you ask me original crysis on pc looks much better than this on high-very high with 4x AA
 
looking forward to playing this in 3 years time when hardware can actually play it at non slide show fps ...ati 7xxx series woot or nvidia g92 ..erm sorry wotever they renamed it too.
 
Has everyone forgotten that the original games screen shoots were faked and the actual game looked nothing like it ?

They weren't faked, it had more to do with the lighting in certain segments of the game. Theres cfg files around that make the gmae look pretty much exactly how it did in the old pics and vids.
 
Everyone does no they aint crysis 2 screen shots right?

nah


people, those screenshots are not of crysis 2, its the engine they used to make "Crysis" the pc game........

some of those screenshots i think include mods developed for crysis... the main reason they look so good is due to TOD (Time Of Day) artists who have altered ghraphics, lighting and other settings and then render them out in high res so they look better....

one scene i think in those screenshots is of a mod named propyat i think, bassicly some russian city / demolition zone :S not sure

but its not crysis 2 lol
