Official Crysis Demo thread

I take it the demo supports multi core processors then?

Not sure if i can be bothered downloading a 1.8gb demo. I might do if it will give me a chance to unlock my quads full potential.

Yes I think it could use quad core power. My machine is 3.4ghz e6400 and its cpu limited in this bench, its maxing out both cores and the fps drops because of it.

All low settings on low except physics on high, 800x600, x1950pro

A drop of 34fps to the minimum frame rate because the cores are maxed out.

Someone with a better card can try with nicer graphics settings but I think it proves quad core is needed for this game sometimes. I'll double check later with higher ddr2 settings to rule out memory
 
Well I'm gonna cancel my preorder for this game because my system just cannot cope at a decent fps with plenty of eye candy:( I don't really wanna play this game without the eye candy as it will just spoil the game methinks :(

Will buy it in the new year when my monster rig arrives.

The Island looks real, the peeps dont look that good and the suits powers runs out too soon as said above.

Its near same as FarCry with a facelift. IMO, they need major tweak it as its too resource hundry right now.

Need to give your head a shake or get down to Specsavers.

Also anyone, how do I start the benchmarks?

I concur, that opening section in the planes cargo bay.. amazing character detail and the suits look just fantastic at all points. Plus, energy length is a major factor on game balance.. put it on easy and it probably lets you run around cloaked all day.. mmm.. fun fun fun!

Exactly the nanosuits look stunning.

Anyone played it on a X1800XT/Vista/C2D?

I've got 7800gtx/vista/opteron dual core which i imagine is quite similar in performance to yours. I run it at:

1280x1024
Shadows set to low
Everything else medium

I managed to easily complete the demo on medium difficulty without dying at all, so my FPS must be smooth enough to not affect the gameplay - it certainly felt smooth.

Has anyone found the Thermonuclear cannon in the Sandbox yet? I want to blow up a whole village :D

It's called the "TACgun/cannon" (can't remember which, but it starts with "TAC") in "entities>items". I've had so much fun with that and mounds of C4's in the sandbox :D

One thing I've noticed though is that if you pick up a barrel and start running around holding it, if you even run into a breakable structure it has the same effect as driving a tank through a building.....

LMFAO THAT IS AWESOME
 
O.k Ive had some time to see how much this game drops my system to its knees, heres my specs:

Q6600 @ 3.4
8800GTX @ 660/1000
4GB PC6400
Vista 64-bit

4XAA All high settings im getting Ave 24 Low of 20 High of 30FPS
4XAA All Very High settings im getting Ave 12 low 10 high 18FPS

How do these fair up with you guys with simular specs?

Have to say excellent game but with all the back dates and time taken 12FPS in very high with this hardware or 24FPS in just High is truely a disappointment, Bioshock has been optimised 3X better than Crysis :confused:
 
has any one found the TAC Tank from the multiplayer beta?

i cant find it :( hope it has it tho in the editor.

btw, how do i paint the floor with textures, i cant do it no matter how hard i try :( lol

iv not played bioshock, and besides this is only a demo, in the future there will be patches etc because not every thing is optimised, especially in a game so big.

alltho i do think its set in 2020 for a reason, maybe in that year our hardware will run the game @ more than 2000fps? :D

Looks it, I'm sure some people with overclocked GTS's are matching that too.
