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

I'm stuck on the part where you have to defend Prophet. He keeps dying as waves & waves of aliens drop in! This is just after he appears & then soon after gives me the alien weapon. I've set the difficulty to EASY but I just can't get the aliense before Prophet croaks!!
 
What is the best thing to lower, im nearly at all mediums but I've got textures, water and volumetric light at high but I still get lag on fire fights etc. What can I lower but it won't be hugely noticeable, specs are:

7900 GTO 512MB
3.4GHZ P4
2GB Corsair

Cheers.
 
Okay. I made it past that bit. I'm now flying the VTOL. Oh my God this part sucks big time! Trying to aim at the big flying aliens is so tedious! Why oh why did Crytek go & mess things up like this?! It was awesome up until this point. Now I just want to get it over with becasue I'm getting bored :( This part is such a let down).

I thought the missiles locked on? :s A few have suggested using a 360 gamepad for this level if you have one...

I managed to get past that bit with just the gunchain.
 
I found the bit in the VTOL well hard even on normal, just could not aim, hard to control the thing too, ended up flying into a damnd twister and that carried me around untill I exploaded!

In the end I just skipped the yellow objectives and went on to the ship.
 
I think the VTOL level is a bit buggy.

When I 1st played the Twisters would always get me, so I loaded a saved game just before and saw that if you follow the 2 VTOLs in front they show you a safe path.

The 1st time I played the 2 VTOLS to follow didn't appear.

IIRC, you have to fly to the right of the 1st and keep close to the sphere, but not so close you freeze.

Missles? What missles? How do you fire them?

Anyway, got past this bit. Made it the carrier. Yeah, the game is getting a bit tedious now. It's not a patch on the first part of the game. Again Crytek have done a bit of a 'trigen' & messed things up a bit once the aliens show up. The carrier part is well dull.
 
Yet again my opinion seems to be different to everyone else.

I got pretty bored of the cut-and-paste Korean bases. Cloak -> Speed -> Fire -> Cloak worked so well it was virtually cheating. Messed around with throwing things at people, but not for long. Didn't use the vehicles much, they tended to get blown up pretty quick :D

For me, the game started to take a turn for the better when the aliens turned up. I think I was just so relieved not to have to kill another 500 Korean clones :D

The tank missions were good (variety), as was the VTOL bit, and the final fight(s) were great. It's nice to see a game that has mega-oversized boss fights again - I thought that died in the early 90s :p

I thought the amount of detail in the carrier was largely wasted, since you don't spend much time there. But that's the price of graphical improvement, I guess. You have to spend months developing areas that gamers are just going to walk straight through...

Overall, good game, but WAY TOO SHORT! Also needed less cowb... Koreans.
 
I was so impressed with this game until..............

Silly floating level, shiny blue aliens and the fact that it turned into a console game in those last two levels! I don't know if I can be even bothered to finish it now!


Why do developers insist on doing this sort of thing? The game with just jungle warfare was excellent!
 
I'm also having trouble getting the tac nuke gun thing to lock on. How do you do this?!! I'm being instructed by Pyscho once I've taken the turrets down on the big alien but it still won't lock.
 
Right click mode, then you have to wait for it to lock on, the first two firings are easy but the thirds requires you to wait a while..
 
I had issues with locking on the third part, so I restarted the level and it worked.

Before restarting nothing would get it to lock on to the underside, but after restart it went through straight away!
 
Okay. I've got the lock thing figured. You can only use it when the canons are exposed ........... but I'm seriously bored with this now. I'm trying to blow open the hatch so I can stick a nuke in. But I'm out of all over ammo & there's aliens swarming all around me! How do I engage God mode so I can finish this thing off? Seriously I'm so bored with this now I just want it over with ASAP so i can go back & enjoy the early levels on HARD.
 
Yay!! I've done! Just. In the end I just steamed in Gauze gun blazing - I found some ammo & had just enough to break open the hatch. Then I nuked the bugger. Dissapointing ending though. Leaves the way for a follow up ...... but we'll be fighting aliens the whole way by the sounds of it. That will be a bit dull.
