Ive got the same card. Works great with everything in medium and low shadows. (1280x768 res)
Sure its going to kill it with everything on highest but what do u expect from a x1800 when 8800GTX machines are getting 15fps or something
(i dont mind about fps but anything below 25 starts getting unplayable and below 20 is pretty darn cack
Just played through this again in vista x64 to see how it was in 64-bit mode and it was actually much nicer this time around. Using the latest nvidia drivers I was able to get 30+fps most of the time aside from really heavy firefights which is 10fps more than I got in 32-bit vista. (I'm running everything medium with shaders high @ 1280x1024 16xaf 0xaa)
I'm hopeful that by the time the game is released there will be some fresh drivers (to fix the white trees) and some more tweakage to the game so that it'll be more consistent.
Either way, what a game

The 64-Bit still doesn't work for me, tried that video trick, freezes on the game menu.

For anyone interested in playing about with the editor (it's the easiest editor I've ever used) read up on the basics here:

Well installed this yesterday and have played at a guess about over half way through the demo on the rig in my sig below.
Ive had a good mess about with all the settings and i set everything to very high apart from shaders and shadows which i put to high(shaders for me @very high seems to cane the performace by a good 5-10fps which is a shame though as it looks amazing on very high, although it does on high aswell.)
With this i get between 20-35 fps and i would say it averages around the 30fps or slightly lower and am using the latest crysis beta nvidia drivers.
The thing is ive noticed and has been said by numerous others is at around 30 fps or just above or below it does feel very smooth like console games do @30fps because normally other pc games i have..etqw ect..feel stuttery and crap when running at around 30fps.
One thing i did once i settled on my gfx settings was simply to switch fraps off which when its on i spend more time looking at the blooming framerate meter than the stunning gfx of the game!
One question though. I set my res to 1680x1050(samsung 226bw monitor) but cant see any of the lower 16:10 res like 1280x800?.
Any ideas why?
Apart from that think its fantastic and each time i play it something different happens in the way you can approach and kill enemies.

Thanks buddy.
Damn I guess
Same card with same drivers yet it crashes or I just get horrible graphical problems (which carries over to the desktop etc, I need to reset).

cant see anything when I play it!
Loads up fine, I see the cinematic screenie, thats works, looks fantastic
i goto video setting and change the res to 1680x1050 (my native res)
then i clicked on "optimal settings" it changed everything to LOW
Then i go to play game and everything keeps going blacvk, when i free fall at the beginning soon as i start looking down screen goes black , i have to keep level to see whats going on, very weird, i guess i need to update my drivers, its been a while!
are the ATI 7.10's the best to use?

Yeah probably is a driver issue mate. I had old drivers and was getting black textures and stuff.
I'll be gutted if I can't get this to work for release. Graphics aside, I really enjoy playing it.
I'm going to roll back to 7.9. Wish me luck

Anyone else not like the game at all?
Maybe it's because I don't like any PC games, especially FPS, but whatever.
