[The Brick]

Wow nice. I can't wait to play this benchmark.. I mean techdemo... I mean game!

[VictimOfScience]

I can't wait to build my onw private virtual paradise with the CryEngine2 Sandbox!!!

Oh, and they both look pretty darn good!

[Aenama]

:O That hax

[[RnL]Stefan]

yar...DX10 goddage, and very important: WIIIIIDDEEEEE screen.

[dekstar]

I don't know which is the Dx9 one :(

[Stigmata]

I don't know which is the Dx9 one :(I think both shots are just the same game-state at two different times of day.

[StardogChampion]

We need some screens with less JPG artifacts.

[<RJMC>]

the only thing this game that really interest is the graphics

[Insano]

I'm not that impressed tbh.

[Stigmata]

the only thing this game that really interest is the graphicsThe truth lies here.

[Hazar]

how may frames per minute? :p

[Gorgon]

ehm!!, I need to spend around £1500 during Jan-07 (upgrade)

[mortiz]

I like the environment, don't know about the models though, they still have that "molded out of plastic" look. They're no patch on the UE3 models.

[CyberPitz]

Eh, lacking of impressevness.

[Stigmata]

I just realized the soldier in the forefront doesn't self-shadow.

LOL CryEngine2.

[PvtRyan]

I'll never understand why they would compress a picture that's supposed to show graphical power with a JPEG on low quality...

[Bob_Marley]

how may frames per minute? :p

3.

Anyway, looks sexy.

[staticprimer]

Crysis is one of those games that is really is only impressive in motion. I bet if this was a video of it on DX10, everyone's jaws would be on the floor.

[Mutley]

That soldier lucks ugly. Seems like low AA or just crappy JPG quality.

[SAJ]

This thread is incomplete without Salmon and his "meh" o' death.

Good pictures though.

[halem111]

ok thats bollox there both the same direct x......which direct x i dont know....but either way there both the same direct x.....
the only difference is the time of day....these were shown at e3 or somewhere like e3......you bastard you owe me 10 mins of my life cus i actually looked at both to try and find out which is which....and there both the same......

thats like asking which shade of black is blacker.......this shade.....or this shade.....fookin work it out....and when you do tell me and i hope you waste 10 mins of your life finding out their the same fookin black

hhhhmmm jus realised my post text comes up in white lol........which is whiter this or this

[nutcrackr]

See sig for details about DirectX 10.

[Cerpin]

Haha, I can't tell which one is the DX10 screenshot.

[Stigmata]

They're both DX10, taken at different in-game times of day.

[Gargantou]

Can't say I find'em to be that much more incredible looking compared to the DX9 stuff, but then again, DX10 has been hyped as the second coming of jesus.:)

[venturon]

Those screenshots aren't new.

Click me baby one more time. (http://au.gamespot.com/pc/action/crysis/screenindex.html?page=2)

[r3ghost]

Dont know about DX10 shots and dont care. Still looks well sexy! Upgrade is in order :p

[Adabiviak]

Are any other game authors going to use this engine?

[Samon]

Hardly anything impressive.

[-Psy-]

Poor comparison.

It would make sense just to make a still shot rendered in DX10 and DX9...of the same scene =/

[MiccyNarc]

I don't see how anyone could not be excited by the prospect of freezing someone then shooting them to cause them to shatter in icy bits.
Can't wait for Crysis.

And I don't know why everyone says it's just a tech demo...am I the only one who loved the original Far Cry?

[The Brick]

Those screenshots aren't new.

Click me baby one more time. (http://au.gamespot.com/pc/action/crysis/screenindex.html?page=2)

QFT. Means it's not DX10.

[clarky003]

People saying this isn't impressive? oh for crying out loud.

Download the new HD G80 presentation (http://www.crysis-online.com/Media/Videos/) and tell me otherwise, for cinematics and potential in an fps shooter this game is flatout the best.

[The Brick]

Sweet jesus thanks. Downloading them both :)

[Iced_Eagle]

Bandwith Exceeded! :( Mirrors?

Oh, and yea I don't know why everyone was expecting to have DX10 be an instant upgrade to uber graphics... It is a lot of performance enhancements, but then once you get better performance you can also put more detail and graphical effects in to get similar FPS to before DX10.

[DEATH eVADER]

I think both shots are just the same game-state at two different times of day.


Thats what I was thinking :D

[-Psy-]

Mirrors:

[el Chi]

Wow nice. I can't wait to have my PC thoroughly raped by this benchmark.. I mean techdemo... I mean game!
Fixed.
If it plays as good as it looks, then it will be very good indeed. I'm sceptical though.

[PE2]

The new G80 Crysis videos are available in HD from www.incrysis.com

Here's the specific thread: http://incrysis.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=1758

[Uriel]

WOW
Holy deuces guys, that video was amazing. Everything is so interactive. Looks like boat loads of fun.

:( too bad you need an absolute super computer I'm guessing

[Zeus]

It's not convincing enough to get me to drop $650 on a DX10 video card (well I don't think anything will, I'm not spending that much money on a computer part)

Your buying a DX10 card for more than 1 game... :)

The video is really, really worth watching, screenshots give this game little to be amazed about.

[Uriel]

Wonder what kinda system they used

[Flyingdebris]

i am impressed

While the graphics are great, its the destructability that has me interested the most. Its been a long time since red faction carried the torch of innovation and had us blowing up our levels, and now it seems Crysis is beginning to rekindle that torch with its dynamically destroyable foliage and bustable houses.

I played through the farcry and had some fun aside from the horrible checkpoint system, the rocket launcher mutants, non realistic "realistic mode," shitty MP, and the shitty dialogue. I'm looking forward to a big improvement with crysis.

[Mutley]

Although to play it on DX10, the game will cost £1000+. :P

[clarky003]

But the hit won't be £1000 + on the spot if you upgrade in bits and bobs upto the planned release in April.

[Alig]

Seriously, all i see is whines whines whines!. If a game is lacking in state of the art technology, you moan. If a game has got state of the art technology, you moan because of the price to upgrade.

If you've nothing better to say than "looks crap" or "god i ain't paying £xxx to play a game" then don't say anything at all. This game is a step in the right direction, it is moving with the times. Just a shame most people can't see when times move.

Edit/ Oh, and the whole "farcry sucked" malarky is growing quite old. There was nothing wrong with FarCry except maybe it's story was a bit of the same old, but so was HL2's and no one complains about that.

I think it looks great, I will be getting it, and I will upgrade to run it on max :D

[Gargantou]

I wonder what kind of comp you'll need to run it max AA, AF, with all shaders on such as motionblur, dof and more, on minimum of 1600x1200, I'm guessing not even a 8800GTX will do tbh, I myself am pondering if I should wait for a second-gen DX10 card before upgrading.

QFT!!!! I could'nt have said it better myself, my god there are alot of whiners on here! FarCry was a great game infact i enjoyed it more than HL2. Im sure Crysis will be just as good and even better!

Horses for courses i guess. I love the graphics, but the game doesnt appeal to me cause i didn't like FarCry, and this just looks like more of the same. Also i'm not keen on having to spend a ridiculous amount of money just to see this one game performing at its best. And apparently i'm not the only one on here that thinks so.

Theoretically i could spend the same amount of money on a PS3 and a good HDTV, and i would come out with a machine and a TV that would serve my gaming needs well enough for at least 3 years, where as with upgrading my PC, if i want to be able to continously get the best graphics out of every game, then i have to upgrade at least once every six months.

Its a budgetary and priority thing.
A) I don't have the money to upgrade for the game
B) Not that interested in the game as it is
C) Even if i was interested, and had enough money, I'd still be looking at spending a few grand. And a few grand that could better be spent on something like a car for example.

Crysis just ain't that high on my priority list right now, and i don't think it will ever be that high for me.

All you are doing is throwing opinions around as though they are facts. They aren't. Just because you thought there was nothing wrong with Far Cry does not mean other people thought the same. Here's the thing (get ready): they didn't. I for one had several problems with Far Cry. Mainly gameplay and how horribly amateur the game was. And what’s more, the story was absolute shite. It wasn't just 'the same old', no, it was atrocious and the writer should be castrated.

There was nothing wrong with FarCry except maybe it's story was a bit of the same old, but so was HL2's and no one complains about that.

Would you like to know why? Because it wasn't the same old. For a videogame story it is quite magnificent, and games have alot of headway to make before they catch up with it. The style of storytelling can be daunting for the average gamer, but in terms of plot, characters and dialogue there is nothing like it.

I'm not bothered about 'state of the art' technology, or the price of upgrade. I'm not all for graphics and I'm most certainly not against it. Crysis is not moving in the right direction, it is moving in a 'graphics' direction. In terms of gameplay and storytelling (the former in particular) I can see Crysis going nowhere.

Please don't bunny hop into the thread blind folded on throw crap around because you've seen some negative comments. Sure, contest them, but don't immediately assume everything you say is fact.

I won't be upgrading my computer for Crysis and I won't be buying it.

[Zephos]

I loved Far Cry (and I have promise for Crysis) but those two screenshots look like shit. The only thing I can laud is the lighting in the top screenie.

[clarky003]

Mainly gameplay and how horribly amateur the game was

Thats the one thing I think most people will disagree with, at the time where very wide open areas were used in an essentially linear fps, it was executed very professionally.

Also farcry's shortcomings are no real reason to believe Crysis will fall short with it's mix of visual and interactivity advancements, infact I'd rather give crytek the benifit of the doubt as graphical advancements are not unhinged from gameplay and story telling, giving you the ability to create a more convincing, believable world and story.

So I think the difference really is I personally see the tech as a tool, and a powerful tool of fantastic potential for creating more immersive stories and experiances, not something that is just solely moving in a 'graphics' direction. Crysis in my opinion is pioneering the open ended cinematic fps.

[Samon]

I don't think open ended is quite the word I'd use.

[clarky003]

Then you obviously havn't read what Cevat has been saying about the singleplayer for the last 3 months, but more so I was refering to the vasteness of the environments.

[Sparta]

Crysis in my opinion is pioneering the open ended cinematic fps.

That sounds like a statement from someone whose actually played the game. not someone whose just watched videos of it on the net.

[Bakurei]

The character models look ugly imo... I don't know if the old character model screens released were renders or something, but they looked way better.

I'm in the same line as Flyingdebris. I hope they bring the level of destruction to the max. Imagine playing this on lan: Someone is shooting in the jungle with a minigun in a CTF-mode and you have the flag. Trees crushing down before you and leaves bouncing of when hit by bullets and the sound of gunfire and sound bullets flying next to your head :D

[PvtRyan]

They're not gonna give every random soldier that you're gonna waste a subsurface scattering shader, I think that's limited to main characters. But it's certainly possible for the engine.

As for Crysis itself, it has the potential to be the best thing ever. But so did Far Cry. For some reason, Crytek deviates from the potential posed by an engine that could do Splinter Cell/Metal Gear Solid/STALKER in the massive environment it features, and picks for your ordinary dime a dozen shooter which for whatever reason, ALWAYS needs to have silly aliens in it.

Imagine just how cool a Crysis would be where you're dropped at an island in a rubber boat, with just a simple objective and other than that, complete freedom in how you'll complete the objective. I'd love to see a survival shooter on the Crysis engine.

[99.vikram]

Crysis didnt have aliens j00 n00B, it had mutants!!1!1

[Cole]

Crysis didnt have aliens j00 n00B, it had mutants!!1!1
Crysis has aliens.
Far Cry had mutants.

[Asus]

If I had to pick then I'd say the darker picture is DX10.
Although are those not the same pics from here last spring? (http://ve3dboards.ign.com/message.asp?topic=23692229) Which pic is really new in DX10?

[Bacons]

Although it doesn't look all that impressive, I still feel that the DX10 cards have enormous potential; I would love to see the next full HL utilizing the capabilities of a DX10 calibre graphics processing unit.

[Uriel]

I thought it looked AMAZIN!

[TCfromBN]

I don't think either of these pictures are DX10 tbh; that just doesnt look like 16x AA to me. As for the arguement over gameplay vs. graphics, it's all opinion. People are just getting pissy over the "Oh man, this game is going to suck because it doesn't have the best story!!!!" and "This game is the best game evarrr!!!" comments. People need to stop bashing before they play it for themselves, and the people who are totaly convinced that it's the "one game to rule them all" need to stop pushing it on other people.

End of story.

Would i be a moron if i buy a new pc for this game alone.

[ailevation]

Hell, I would buy a new PC for this game alone... then happen to have bought it to play other games that will be released at a later date.

[Keane]

That's what I'm planning to do :D

[Sebastian]

Kind of hard to judge a game before you've even played it. so STFU all you nay sayers. admit that this game looks mind blowing.
