The ONE AND ONLY ***OFFICIAL*** Crysis thread - SPOILERS!

I just finished it on Hard and I thought it was really good with some truly epic moments, which I won't say anything about just yet in case I spoil if for anyone. I really was gobsmacked at what was happening on my screen at some points!

Performance on my rig, which consists of an E6600, 8800GTS 320 and 2GB, was pretty decent. I was running the game on all high apart from shadows and post-processing which were on medium and getting 25-30fps throughout apart from the last level which I had to revert to all medium to maintain a decent framerate. The snowy parts played fine on my PC, which surprised me because I heard that it completely slows down.

AI was a bit mixed, sometimes they seemed smart but a lot of the time they were just poop, Alien AI is better than Human AI for sure.

Anyways, I will say more about the game when more people complete it as I was quite lucky to get mine delivered today :)

I phoned to ask them nicely why the had not shipped and the lady got a bit aggressive and told me that they will not deliver early anymore as they will be sued by the publishers.

I really hope that's not the case, because it's probably the main reason I use them. My last two orders (GoW & Timeshift) both arrived on the Wed. so that was 2 days early rather than the usual one. May have to think about moving mt UT3 pre-order elsewhere...
 
Can anyone tell me, do the guys on the boat still have eagle eyes? It annoys the hell out of me when they manage to spot you when there is just your head sticking out, and you are miles from them.

Have seen a lot of poor AI so far. Question is, why didn't they spend more time on the AI and less on the Graphics nobody can get any enjoyment out of?

Hopefully a patch will sort the AI.

I was stuck there too, damn vents are rather confusing. I accidently found the exit when I was throwing stuff around due to frustration. One of the best levels ever though:cool:

Yeah, well designed, complete 360 world. This game is so fun, I spent so many hours yesterday hammering it.

I agree with the other comments though, the AI is pretty poor.
 
Just completed it, really quite suprised - It's not very big at all. Little bit disappointed as it could have been bigger - Very good game though, graphically amazing!
 
Is anyone else pretty disappointed with this game. I still stand by my earlier comments about the performance of this game. Ive gone and spent £1200 on a rig and still have to reduce my settings to medium, at this point IMO i think the game looks naff. That said i have managed to play most of the game on high, although once you have you don't ever want to revert back to mediums settings which frustrates me a fair bit.

Graphics and performance aside, the AI is absolutely poor. They are stupid, random and everywhere, to much in places. And one the mission where you have to go down the stream to the "grave yard" where you first encounter the cheap knock off suits, the HIND drove me insane ! Grrrr.
 
I managed to play the game with most things set to "High" although at the end FPS went awful and in the big battles it suffered.

I do agree in some ways with you, it was such an anticipated title but it lets you down in regard to the AI and length of the game itself. I have to compare it to Far Cry - which was much longer and got you more involved.

The helicopter bits were annoying, it was the same on the harbour level, I basically had to complete it with two choppers on my tail. I thought the game was an ok length, the last boss battle was a bit wtf though...

Downhill how performance or story wise?

Gameplay.

The alien ship is awful - you just float around for ages trying to find your way.

Then once you get out you encounter the flying aliens. They're crap. You just have to shoot them for ages until they go down.

A while after that there's a mission where you fly the VTOL. It's the worst handling vehicle in the game.



Performance doesn't seem as good in the frozen areas too. :(
