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

Looks very nice. Is the res actually 1024x768 or is it scaled down? Also, whenever i change the CVAR's or configs, it takes an age to load (due to compling or whatever), but when i get ingame everything looks messed up and rocks and bolders say "Shader Compling" or something. Is there anyway to stop it?

Also, does the game look better than all at high with what your using? Mind posting up the custom configs :D

Yea its scaled down, gotta pay to use over 1024x768 on photobucket :\.

Well I would think what I am using is better than all at high as before I was using all at high, I seem to get a performance boost now and also better than high by looks of it.

There is a CVAR mod and autoexec.cfg or something mod further back in one of the other threads, gives graphics better than very high and also my fps never went under 24fps with it.

Loading fine with the mods here.
 
I think i have that .rar. Is it called "crysis_ultra_high"? I replaced the files with the original cvars and it still had some "Compling shaders" things and performance was bad.

Did you use the configs and start the game from scratch or did you load a save game? Cause i loaded a save game which could (i hope) be the problem.
 
Bloody hell :eek:, ive been playing it all high with post processing on medium as it seemed to lag a bit before with that on high as well as everything else, but ive just been playing it a while and thought it seemed to be running better on the beta 169.09's, so ive now put the post processing on high, and its still bloody flying, i went back to first light and ran into that camp guns a blazing, and still flying, bloody great, im gona start again now as its looks fanatastic and i wanna see the whole thing from the beginning at all high settings. :D:D:D:D

God know what Nvidia have done with these drivers, but its amazing now, im at 1280x1024 on XP btw.

1280x1024, XP btw.


Lost a few FPS with 169.09's :mad:
 
currently playing very high at 1920x1200 getting 20-25fps, playable for a single player fps for me.

doesnt look anywhere near as good as it does on some of the vids, still stunning though :)
 
There's an interesting Q&A session going on over at incrysis right now with roy taylor from nvidia and hopefully cevat yerli soon, should come check it out.
 
Hmm, it feel like quite a tit making this post.

I have now got to the stage in the game, where ive been inside the core and just got out again. Against all my religions, and much resistance i just cant stop my self liking this game more and more. My machine seems to be "adapting" to high settings and on average im getting 40 FPS now which is totally playable.

So far, slow start and unimpressed. But now the aliens are out to play and ive seen more graphics, well .. i like it ! damn you Crytek ! DAMN YOU !!!

:D The game does suck you in and it gets better and better the more you play.
 
Yep, I just got out of the mountain....mind...blowing...graphics...25...fps....still..amazed.

I'll finish it off tomorrow and then uninstall it till someone releases a graphics card that can run it...those buggers.

would you say crytek has created one of the most powerful and detailed engines ever? with the (relatively) easy to use sandbox editor the scope for mods is massive, it could be desert combat or red orchestra all over again :D.
 
I played a couple hours last night... there is something about it thats not appealing to me but i dont know what it is.... maybe its the ai...

At the moment far cry is better than this imo but i will give another bash tonight!:o
 
Ending's a bit poor...

Abit? It reeks of EA trying to milk the cash cow. As a gamer I feel both disappointed and let down by Cryteks offering. I was loving everything about it right up until the end, which really lowered my opinion of it. It ends far too quickly and theres no real warning that its coming. Judging by Far Crys length I expected to have just reached the games half way point around the time that it ended.

Half the core elements werent even in there, unless im mistaken.

Absolutley ridiculous, this game has obviously been affected by EAs drop in quarterly earnings. Wait for the expansion pack/Crysis 2 and buy both together, itll feel more like a game that way.
