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.

For anyone interested this is now on the "scene". I guess the rumours of some people unlocking the preload somehow were true.

geRV · 11-13-2007, 07:15 PM

I was in the store today and i saw it there so i picked it up and bought it. Just installed it and was messing around a bit in it. Seems to me they have optimized it a bit since the demo. On the demo I was running everything on High settings with no AA. In this I can run everything on very high dx 10 with no aa and it's playable. no stuttering at all. looks great. I turned up the aa to 2x and it stuttered a bit. it's probably still playable, but not worth it at all. nice to be able to set everything to very high though! although I was just running around the first level. No big firefights or anything.

Wait until after the demo level part, plenty of oversized firefights. You'll find yourself coming up with tactics to distract and break contact to avoid them after a while. Just as fun as picking them off or mowing them down in my book.

So far my favorite in wooded areas is to open fire with the long rifle at range, plink a few. As they rush forward to your now known position cloak and move to the extreme sides, left or right. Cloak and move around the unit, playing hop scotch with your cloak power. Now you have two options, pick them apart from behind with a silenced weapon and cloak, or just continue on now well past them.

Only thing i REALLLY hate so far is the choppers that seem to know where you are no matter what. Hiding in that bush where no troops see you? Oh yeah it sees you. Tricked it by hiding behind a tree then running out cloaked, dont kill anyone it will instantly reaquire you even if you've run 3 miles away.

Uh What Video card do you have ?

geRV · 05:20 AM

As the levels progress you'll notice more and more frame rate dips, im running everything on high with no fsaa @ 1920x1200, some firefights im dipping to almost single digits, think the lowest ive seen so far was like 13fps. Can't say im happy with the perfomance, ive also been reading that people with sli and crossfire are getting corrupted menu;s and worse performance than a single card. Despite the fact crytek repeatedly stated the game would make use of multi core and multi card setups. It doesn't even make use of a quad core effectively at all.

Im enjoying the game so far, the one thing thats pissing me off is sometimes you pump almost 40 rounds into someone using a silenced rifle and it seems to do jack shit in terms of damage. Noticed it seems to happen when theres a good bit of distance betwen you, i stuck the sniper scope on the fy71 and seen every round hit this guy and he was still runnig around unphased, just a regular korean soldier.

Some cfg tweaks out now to make the game look better:

Oh and anyone that got the special edition, watch the making of crysis vid around 6 mins before the end, i swear that Cervat guys on crack. They got a studio to make a rendered movie and they were gonna atempt to match it in real time with the game, according to them crysis now looks superior to the rendered movie. The rendered movie is also on the bonus disc named "crysis_core-x". If they honestly think crysis looks better than that then they need to pass some of what theyre smoking this way.
