Crysis full game

I sometimes see patches of rocks that are low res when all around is high res so I think that this is a "feature" at times.

I am still amazed that people have finished it already. I played for 8 hours yesterday and spent 1 hour getting past the goons just before the archeology site. Is everyone being big gurlies and just running away from people on easy level or are they doing it

THE PROPER JOHN WAYNE WAY

Or am I just crap??

I like the stream above the waterfall, well thought out. Have to agree with the reviewers, the AI in the open is a lot better than the AI indoors.

 

Yeah there is 2 executables in the bin (at least for me). The specific crysis64.exe is broken.

 

I played gung-ho the first time though, but this time I've been playing with being sneaky. Erlier today I crept though a huge area early in the game, giving away my position every now and again but slipping off only find myself in a ravine at the base of a waterfall. So I turned around and started hopping up the rocks only to fine a mass of what must have been around 30 troops bunched up at the mouth of the ravine behind me. So I tossed my only nade which took out about a third of them and as I was pulling out my rocket launcher I realized I needed be taking screenshots, only to get picked off by a headshot as I was still in strength mode. I'll have to try that again someday.

 

Is a problem with my codecs or my system and my the navigators . I change my video codecs and now 0 problems

 

There are some things that have a little less texture detail wilst other have more detail. When there are so many things to texture in a game, a mix of textures and detail shaders you cant have 2048*2048 textures/detail by shader for all objects. But most have that at v.high.

But just imagine all the console games where the textures look like that rock, that would be the majority of console games and many have worse to!

 

If you can spot many low-res textures then your PC is weak, the CPU. A weak CPU will have trouble loading in all textures and detail and if it time-outthen you wont get high-detail textures/detail on objects. Also v.high settings provide the best textures on so many objects it puts to shame the next-best one (PC games since consoles have texture detail as their weakness).

Yet to watch those videos but after playiing the game on hard and medium Ican say the AI is by farthe best one even though it has it's flaws or bugs sometimes. And to call this AI for bad is to call pretty much any console games AI for border-line brainless!

Maybe but then you must find pretty much all other games for extremly disappointing in graphics and most gameplay features. You know you can only do so and so with current hardware!

Cheers!

 

ROFL that video is made by someone trying to put down the game. it is funny to see he uses the weak point or bug/flaw that is the jumping on the boat when it is on water.

You wonder why he didn't show the AI on land, well becouse it would tear his "AI is bad" point completly apart. Im shure you can find any game where the AI has some spot/section/situation where it is completly flawed.

Showing rare to happen bugs and using that to claim how bad the AI is is really a sad thing. Imagine we do that for all games, then we would say they all got bad AI?

And not to rule out that he has 'rigged' the showings himself, that means editing the AI.

 

Well if you cant get satisifed with Crysis graphics at high/v.high then how would you get satisifed with console games graphcis or Rage?

Becouse to call Crysis bad on different points you have to be able to compare to another game that has better and by that no low-res textures on any part, Kameo doesn't fit that neither. Take the bolded part, that shows a completly unfair comparision, taking the worse part of a game comparing it to the best part of another game. That is ice cold.

To find selective parts where some objects have low-res textures can be done in any game. But to use that for complaining when the majority of other objects have high-res textures is beyond me!

 

Yes but Kameo also has some crap textures just like any game will if your going to nitpick it. The overall texture level in Crysis though, including the rocks is far beyond Kameo.

 

I have to agree with Nebula with regards to the AI thing. This is a massive sandbox game with an unprecidented level of environmental interaction. The AI routines would have to be massively more complex than something like FEAR where the options available to the AI are much more limited.

From what I have played of the demo the AI is excellent given the complexity of the world. Yes it will do some stupid things now and then, thats unavoidable in an open world like this but I don't think it should be used an an excuse to bash the game.

 

I think you are doing a big deal out of this very rarely low res textures.
It´s hyped to the best looking games because of facts, obviously you havn´t played the game at high settings.

You are pretty much saying that :
If a game has very few textures that doesn´t look good, it cant be the best looking game so far.
Makes no sence

The A.I has a few bugs but that doesn´t make the AI bad, It´s without a doubt the best AI so far in a game, IMO.

But it´s very good of you to point out this stuff, becuase then the developers can fix it with a so called "patch".
Welcome to the Beyond3D forum.

Indeed.

 

I have been playing some MP and its very good, I have had lots of fun.
If someone is playing with shaders on medium, I recommend to do this:
Type the folowing in the console command:
Con_restricted 0
r_HDRrendering 1

It makes the lightning far much better and it works on MP too, I´m not sure if it works on servers with Punkbuster though.

Crytek has delievered and I´m d*mn proud to be an owner of this game!

 

Yes they are bugs/flaws that rarely happen, it would also be interesting to know if those videos are from the demo or final (the previous ones where from the demo).

Difficulty level is also something affecting the Ai, I find that on easy they are less flattering but on high and above a real showcase of good AI. But name a game with perfect AI (and good) in your view that has no flaws...I'll bet you cant!

 

Try to enable AF it will help very much.

 

First how could you play this game at max detail at 1920*1200 at 30fps with slowdowns? It would be more like constant sub 20fps even with SLI.


Also I thought you said it was high/v.high mix of setting in your post in the console section yet this is the same image claimed to be v.high which it is not.

 

Indeed.
By the way, Nebula do you happen to know how I can install the Sandbox2?
EDIT: Thanks for the answer Nebula.

Same link for both screenshots.

 

Yep it is on the install DVD, in the folder SandBox2!

 

Here are some ss posted on Imagehack. Cant give excatly the same images since I dont keep them on the HDD. But I tried to take some of similar/same places! Remember I had edge aa enabled so it blurs the images more than if disabled, just forgot to disable it (some are without though). In contrary it helps reduce jaggie visibility for very little perfomance hit!

I'll take some rock pathway ss soon. For these ss, no true AA except edge AA through r_useEdgeAA=2 forsome ss, no AF.

Since you are flip-flopping between sections and thread I'll ahd todo the same to follow the conversation. And no I have no problem with you saying the wrong resolution for the image you posted but in the talk of credibility it shure dont make you shine. Especially when you attack me and claim I have no credibility.

I think you take this far to serious you seem to have some serious issues. Instead of going personal why dont you act more maturely and hold yourself to the topic instead of insulting, calling names (in other thread)?

Also someone else posted some ss which shows you aint got v.high.

 

Because you hadn´t post that when I posted or maybe you had but I wasn´t in that thread or maybe I missed it, I´m very sorry if I missed it.

PeterNorth you are not playing on Very high settings, you maybe have been tricked by the game settings or something but you are not playing on very high settings.

I took this two screenshot from my computer, they are both on very high settings DX9 which means that they are not "real" very high settings( they are a bit lower than very high settings) and I´m playing at a resolution of 1280x1024 so my screenshot are a bit downscaled because I use Photobucket to upload my screenshots.
NOTICE: that the textures are a bit blurry on longer distances because AF is disabled.
