From day one Crysis has always been known for its graphics, nothing else. Can someone remind me why this game will be more than your average 'crap PC FPS' only liked by the most fanatical pc fanbois?
For the record,
Halo is the biggest crock of overrated **** ever...so take your pcfanboi comment and ram it right up your x-box

Multiplayer maybe, Singleplayer nah it blows....it blows real bad!
That whole end section of the game which sees you climbing through the guts of one of the worst game levels every fashioned.
Then once we escape its torment were given a crap racing game which doesn't rely on skill. It is reliant completely on:
1 Your death teaching you what not to do Game design 101, your death should never come about because you have failed to see the future
2 Checkpoints Because by god you'll need them. Not because your **** you understand but because the game devs want to shaft you
3 Blind luck That your next perfectly straight jump off that ramp wont see your wannabe race car spinning about in mid air.
and don't get me started on the story. Aahhhak i felt a little sick in my mouth there using that word to describe it's ....... ahhkk almost did it again!
100% overrated. It's multiplayer is its only saving grace, which if you have a PC seems a little ponderous and off.

Originally by: Sleepkevert Oh please let that be true, and framelag i experienced at 1680x1050 be beta lag (which i highly doubt)
Well i've been playing the beta for a while (i got a key from the 4th round of keys on FP) and i have no problems. Though my PC is a top end rig i've been playing it both with 2 8800gtx in sli and with just the one card (while i have a second monitor on).
while its definatly true that there is a difference between 1 and 2 cards, there was no need for me to turn the settings or res down when useing a single card.
The other thing to remember is that crytek have said that in a 'balanced' system the cpu is more important then the gpu, and that more cores are better then more speed.
they also said that they are aiming to scale to '3yr old hardware' so i dont think people really need to worry about playing.

I'll bite:
Crysis, like Far Cry before it has levels of freedom on a grand scale that is usually avoided in FPSs in general. Although Far Cry had considerable flaws, the fact you could trek over this island seemingly at will and go the way you want, doing things how you wanted you defined the game. Compare this to a highly linear FPS such as the aforementioned Halo series where it's essentially a tunnel of arenas, no real scope. Sometimes, it's even just a set of tunnels when the developers had decided not to lie to themselves any more or something.
When playing Crysis therefore, it lets you play it the way you want to. I have actually already played Crysis (i31) and the short demo we were given had a pretty simple objective, but you could see in the row of people everyone played it differently. I chose overwhelming surprise and force, stealing the jeep, ramming it into the enemy's shelter and blowing the fuel tank. Some people snuck by. Some people assassinated them one by one. Some people just went a different route altogether.
The gameplay elements promise to be intelligent too. For example, your optical camo is dandy against humans, but the aliens have a shifted spectrum of vision, so your camo is useless against them. However, if you can match temperature with your surroundings they won't be able to see you even though you're in plain sight.
Personally, any game where I smack someones jaw causing them to fly backwards through a car's windscreen, killing the driver is something special to me.
Honestly, Halo is the ultimate example of last generation generic cookie-cutter shooting gameplay. Recent releases, such as the Orange Box shows how absurd the blind adoration of Halo is.
That's my opinion, anyway.

The thing that will define Crysis in the long-term will be the replayability. You could play through it like CS:S one time, then go back and play it like Thief or Splinter Cell, and after that go through and play it using just your ubar kung fu.
Weeks of endless fun!  ---

If you noticed, he was running the game through the editor. That means 0 optimizations (which are desperately needed).
Imagine trying to watch a movie being exported from the editing software. It'd play at about half speed. This merely skips frames. ---

Dude, they said you can play on medium settings w/ a PC that could play farcry on high. Get a decent dualcore and a mid-range dx10 and you'll play it fine w/ all the dx10 trimmings. I'm gonna use quadcore (lulz) and a top-of-the-range DX9 card and play it at Ultra-high settings, just won't get like...DX10 light rays through the trees (Can't tell the difference ) ---

And you wont be able to play on the dx10 on line servers, no destructible environments or day night cycles!!  --------------------------------------------

Are you ********? Destructible environments are nothing to do with DX10. DX10 is a graphical effects tool, not physics, and the day / night cycle is dx9 as well, just not as pretty.

Despite your msn ranting atm, i do believe it was said the online games would not have these in dx9 to reduce server lag, read what i said you silly child. Look it up, im sure i remember this correctly. --------------------------------------------

Uhm, server lag in an FPS (or...any game) has nothing to do with graphics at all... ---

Quote: As for the DX9 version we won't have physics and day and night cycle in-game. That means you won't be able to shoot down trees and/or alter any other objects than vehicles on the map. Ad

It would seem Crytek are idiots if they managed to produce less lag by using DX10 over DX9... ---

They figure, if you have a Dx10 card your more likely to have better hardware overall and therefore are less likely to cause lag on a crowded server.
You have to keep in mind not everyone with dx9 card will have a GOOD dx9 card, (same can eb said about dx10 i suppose )
Im just trying to see it from their point of view!
Prob easier for me since i have dx10 anyway.  --------------------------------------------

If you don't have a GOOD dx9 card you wont even load Crysis tho  ---

It being EA, plus what Mtthias said above about the DX9 cut backs (most stupid design move ever tbh) means I certainly won't be buying it.
Will consider torrenting it though, since Farcry was so very good. If my hardware can take it, ofc. ------

Ea is just the publisher as far as i know!
And the DX9 cutbacks are only for the mutliplayer, well worth buying still. --------------------------------------------
