Official Crysis Demo thread

I think I have borked my demo. :p

Having seen the pics on here of the big ass missle firing tank I just had to have a play with the editor and messed about with the island file. When I first loaded it up it had all the level info there which I deleted. I did save as a different filename but now when i try and load my save game it doesn't work :(

I will try tonite with a new game but i think the actual level is messed up, guess I'll have to re-install the demo :confused:

by the way, that tank is ace! along with the ice spitting alien thing
 
I got choppers working for me in the editor. I set my main movement controls to the arrow keys, and WASD worked by default for the vehicles :-)

I used the arrow keys but how do you get it to lift more than a few feet?


EDIT: found it works with W key to rise up high, being left handed I use the arrow keys & mouse in left hand lol

Anyone know if the full game will include the ability to pick up dead bodies/more gore ?

How come you deleted all the level info lol? best bet here when anyone tries the editor for first time is to save it as island2 right from the start before doing any messing & only play around with island2 , I did the same thing as you at first, mind you I'd played the demo 3 times so didn't bother to reinstall as playing the game in the editor is much more fun :p
 
Running a QX6700, 4GB RAM and an 8800GTX on High at 1680x1050 and its really not a very nice frame rate, don't know what it is but it must be about 30 ish. On very high settings its a slide show. This game must need some serious pixel pushing power to run smoothly at 60 fps with highest settings.
 
Playing the demo again with some editor help is so much fun. Spawn some of the weapons from the multiplayer demo (Gauss rifle etc) or how about a hand held tactical nuke launcher? Or fly a helicopter through a tornado!
 
its quite funny just placing a load of npc's in the air so when u start the game they all fall out the sky screaming and hit the floor with a splat :P

or might just be me that finds that amusuing!
 
I tried flying the helios through tornadoes, it really doesn't seem to effect them too badly.

Helios fly quite well in this though, which is an achievement by the programming teams! :)
 
I loved the demo but I do have my concerns with the full game such as everything will get frozen and I am not a big fan of winter frozen white levels in games. Also I am not a big fan of fighting aliens in games because the there can be less developed AI in say fighting bi-pedals. Some games have the alien monster either coming straight for you or staying a distance and sniping. They make it difficult by flooding you with enemies or making them very tough. I am interested to see what the Aliens are like to fight in Crysis and I hope it will not be the old stereotypical alien.
