Same 2 maps that the 360 version had.

I can't see dx 10 or 11 bringing anything exciting or new to the game imho.

6v6 on skyline and crash site, must be quite small maps then.

I'm scared on how well it runs using DX 10/11 cards. Leaked version was about 40 average fps and thats using Dx9.

Hopefully it will have a more responsive feel than the 360 demo.

That's not too bad then, i saw the leaked gameplay with eyefinity using large screens and it was running smooth enough and i believe it was in dx 11?. Apparently the leaked developer build has the complete data?. The only problem i will have is getting used to the claustrophobic environment, not sure how the game will play out encased in the big apple, complete with rasta robot aliens

Don't get too excited its a very generic point and click shooter now.
Environments are nice but no substitute for the jungle and open tactics

Gin0rm0 · 16 Feb 2011 at 17:35

Will give the demo a try, although the previous crysis' were more about the single player experience for me.

MissChief · 16 Feb 2011 at 18:38

i wouldn't worry too much about the poor performance from a months old build. Optimisation is one of the last things done in any beta.

Betamax- · 16 Feb 2011 at 19:55

Its nice that they actually bothered to make a demo for PC..
