Just read that the bonus disc of crysis has been uploaded. Game itself seems to be 2 dvd's, then one other for the bonus content.

Theyre running the full game there on an 8800gt and its blazing along. Not sure how far in just scan ahead a bit, and check out their amazing case. 
That youtube vid he states its maxed options but only 1024x7768 res, which is a pretty small res these days.

I hope to god the full version is going to be a lot friendlier to pcs when its out soon...

WOW it actually worked!
Lowered the resolution down to 1024 and it ran beautifully. Everything except on High except post processing and shadows on medium. Tried with and without AA on 2x - no difference.
I'd tried all the tweaks and they all had differing outcomes but a simple lower of the rez has it looking gorgeous and playing great, woop!

Hmm When you look at that comparisson the game doesn't really look as impressive as what they showed it would look like.

That bottom pic is surely without lighting or in a zero lit place. But its funny comparing them either way, I'm really looking forward to this game getting patched as once the bugs/graphical slowdowns get worked around, it'll be a lot more fun

Was fucking around earlier and ran airborne and crysis in windowed mode at the same time to see how they ran, suprised that even running these both simaltaniously there was still on average around 24% of the cpu remaining unused.

Would be a shit if it was a preload but the email i got states the following:
Quote:
Thank you for ordering on Electronic Arts BV. The date when the product that you Pre-Ordered will be released has been changed.
The product listed below will now be available on 09 November 2007
|
Would preload count as being made available? And it also states the release date was changed. I can only assume maybe its been leaked and theyre trying to get it on sale before its warexed to hell and back.
