Crysis (such a shame)

It would have been sooooooo much better if the game continued like the first 6 levels. The thing was, i knew the aliens were coming, i just didnt want them to (because it would be turd) once in that floaty building it sucked serious balls
 
Never got past the 3rd level, still on the island, bored to tears with jerky graphics and having to have cartoon settings to get it to run. Will play it properly next year when the next gen of cards are out but for me cba with it at the monent. Rather play Forged Alliance.

I think this is why most ppl are looking forwards to FarCry2, no monsters, no aliens ;)

I liked Crysis for what it is, an eye candy FPS, with lots of cool guns and a really cool nano suit. I have finished today and gonna start playing it again :)
 
im at vtol flyin part, hate it. Ruining it for me, im crap at flying them. im just useless, so its a right task!
 
I dont see anything wrong with crysis, the story was great, it had all the stealthy and freedom of killing koreans then there was the change of events where the aliens attack (and for me, they scared the living daylight out of me as i dont like jumpy things :P).

And for them to make the game so you get 30+ fps when looking at the scenery with all high+some very high dx10 hacks, is remarkable in my oppinion. and this is on a 2900.



Took a screenshot i like this area :)
 
I think the general problem is that the FPS genre is in need of some new ideas. Crysis simply built upon age-old FPS ideas with stunning graphics and physics. But really, it didn't bring much else to the table. Still a good game though.

Your talking about cod4, episode2, etc

crysis brought the nano suit, destucable environments and houses, and customizable weapons.

@ those of you who want a better config:

this guy made a good one. you get better fps, and nicer looking graphics. though I changed HDR back to 0.8
 
tbh I didn't like FarCry one bit and never got around to completing because I was too bored.

Crysis on the other hand I really like. Well balanced, nice story line and just a whole lot of fun. I think a lot of people where expecting something totally different, thats why they don't like it.
 
I liked the first Far Cry though but like yourself I agree on Crysis

Think... How many people paid to upgrade their computer to get decent fps in crysis? Buying cards that came with the game, etc...

I think the game did its job.

Bwahahahahahh. fools!

Both games end on a cliffhanger ( I don’t get why people hated the crysis ending, it was all over and they went back to the island) in hl2 you see Eili die and that’s it.

Still everyone praises hl2 and they diss crysis.

Because Crysis is hyped and people naturally expect much more from it. Wheareas with HL2 people knew before EP2 was released that there will be a EP3 where the story ends. So people expect EP2 to end on a cliffhanger. HL2 invested a lot more in character building and so the end scene is a lot more powerful than in crysis.

I upgraded for crysis, hence another reason I hyped it more than others, still I don't regret my 8800gt a bit.

Well, this is only Valve marketing at work though. E2 was Hyped a lot, though more gameplay wise, and less graphics wise. Because valve named it "episode 2" rather than "half life 4" its ok to have a clifhanger, while with Crysis everyone was dissapointed with the ending.

Also, I can't think of a better way to end Crysis. you ( SPOILER ALLERT) destroy that big monster ans ship, and you head back to finish the job. Honestly, I was expecting the ending to be an A-bomb on the island, and thats it. that would have been a cheesy ending.
 
i liked the ending, this way we know theres more to come and that segment of the story is finished.
That likes moaning that in the 1st LOTR there was still room left for story telling.
Or the matrix even.
Hell, star wars too.
Nothing wrong with storys that span multiple releases, aslong as nothing is dragged and things dont get left in middle of plot.
The way i see it is this game tied up every segment from this section of a story, atleast much like HL2 did.. and EP1.
Coulda been worse, would you rather it have done a Matrix2 and 'TO BE CONTINUED' flashed up? :D
