they run the risk of sticking their middle fingers up at the crowd who constantly remind us that "it runs that slow because its just that good!!!!!!!".

i wont say that crysis singleplayer in general is bad, because when the videos was made for crysis way befor the game came out it was like omg look at them graphics, but by the time it had come out other games in the world had caught up in the graphics department and crysis just seemed like a game with better than average graphics for too much fps loss, but now i think it actually doesnt look that good? :S The graphics just arent brilliant, it had a lot of detail but not enough to look realistic and too much for it to look like a good game. Its in the middle of saying its good and stuff it imo if that makes sence
They should concentrate more on optimisations aswell as better LOD and for AA to not kill you and for the jungle to be more detailed but not over detailed and more life like rather than just getting a paint brush and just painting aload of trees here and there which makes everything look repeated like a background of whacky races cartoon where the background repeats its self
What are you talking about? Crysis still looks miles better than any other game currently released....
Soldato
That's what really annoyed me too. I don't own the game but from all the screenshots I've seen nothing has matched the original trailers.

In Very High or High maybe, but it isn't playable even without AA, if you scale down to medium it looks like a lot of other games and still has a bad framerate, not to mention crap A.I./bugs.
I don't believe anything he says about the new game as we had these statements before.
Crytek should just go console only in future.
Over 1 million copies sold on the PC yet they bitch about it when its as profitable as 3 million copies sold on any console as no console royalty fee to pay.
Nvidia say 4 million 8 series gfx cards sold so as that is the minimum NV chipset to run it properly Crytek did well considering they reached a high percentage of the target audience.
Age Of Conan, The Witcher & even Stalker sold better so shock horor could it be that Crysis was not actually that good to begin with as gameplay wise it was a Far Cry 1.5 clone and the gfx to me were not all that anyway just a prettier Far Cry clone and not even that much better looking considering the hardware requirements I would have expected a lot more plus worse still Crysis is still after patching buggy as hell in many places and the last level is still very slow and full of non game character bugs which I suppose will never get fixed as they have said no more PC support for it.

Crysis is easily playable on High, and looks better than any game released.
And how can the game not look like the videos before launch? They were made in game. They arn't CGI or anything. Now pass the crack pipe there's not much left.

Suppose Crysis could be considered an ambitious and large scale project a bit rushed (ea publishing) that could be realised better in terms of tech, maybe warhead will do that, or maybe it's just a pre release blag ie buy warhead for more fps. Thought Crysis was a bit seen it all before tbh. Decent game but nothing special.
Yeah I agree. Thats what killed Farcry for me. The shoddy dialogue/plot made me cringe, that and the mutant muppet things - Thats about where I stopped playing.
Thats because a lot of those Crysis trailers were pre-rendered using the game engine.
Still its a good looking game.

Is that the article you're on about?
$600 will get you a very nice today with todays hardware prices. And by the time it launches at the end of the year, and even better machine.

Ah haha ha haha course it will
You'd think they'd make the videos run at 30FPS if they were using pre-rendered videos.

Hardly easily playable, first graph is medium without FSAA and a HD3870 only gets 43fps at 1280*1024 which looks pants without FSAA
Soldato
What's the point, if the score without FSAA is already low adding 4xFSAA will only bring the framerate down even further.Look for some with FSAA on then.There's plenty around.

I don't get why people always complain about Crysis' low frame rates...
Yes, other games look (arguably) as good on highest as Crysis does on medium.
Yes, other games can run on highest at the same frame rate as crysis does on medium.
Then why don't you just run crysis on medium... then its the same as any other game. If you want to run a game to look better than any other game, surely it's to be expected that it's going to have higher system specs. Gameplay is like any other game - some people like it, some people dislike it. That doesn't mean that the game is poorly designed... just that it's like any other game - different people have different opinions of it. I swear if there wasn't so much pre-release hype, no one would be complaining about how terrible it is.

I seem to be able to play it pretty well at 1680x1050 with a mix of high and very high.
