Crysis is Really consuming US pc gameers

Ok ever since this game was shown people have been builting Rigs around just this one game.

This game has been debated for months about if it willl even run at all.

People have been waiting for a chance to play it and when the did in the multi beta it cause alot of dissapointed people on threads

and no we have people complaing about the games DEMO the DEMO being delayed

I heard the demo runs better but ot by much in some systems wars thread.

This game has consumed us. Though tommorow you and I will be playing this DEMO by ourselfs alot.

Comments and opinions

I built a new PC because it had an oldass 6600GT and a P4 processor with only 1GB memory.

And tbh, i am more excited for The Witcher now than I am for Crysis.

me too : D as much as I play and love FPSes, RPGs provide the most rich gaming experiences you can have, and to have an RPG that actually attempts to do new interesting things when it comes to the essence of RPGs: choice, and on top of that has a really cool combat system (even for non-RPG games) then it's time to be excited : D

I mean, the main issue I find with RPGs is that choices have no consequences because you can save and they attempt to solve that. Whenever I play an RPG I save before a choice and try all the options, I can't constrain myself and it sort of ruins it

Well I built my PC for Bioshock, Unreal Tournament III, Call of Duty 4, Gears of War, and all the other great games coming out in the future along with the games I already have. I didn't build it just for Crysis.Spindoc_SEI

Agreed, I built mine for all games and not just one.

well the problem is that it has been more than a year that a new high end graphics card has been introduced, that is why i believe crysis wont be maxed by anyone.

BTW LTZH how does your rig perform in fsx, people seem to complain a lot about it.

Well, going by what Cevat Yerli said, those of us with the high end DX10 cards and good processors should be able to max it out completely and run it smoothly. I'm really excited for this too, and i've seen some screenshots of the demo from other forums. It looks absolutely amazing, even just on medium quality. Better than ANY game on its highest settings. But i've also been reading stories about how badly optimized the demo is and how crappy it runs. It's definitely something to think about. Yerli stated that they optimized the actual game really well, so i'm sure that the demo isn't much of an indicator as to how well the actual game will run.

In the end, i'm sure those of us with 8800GTS 320/640 or 8800GTX will be able to run the game at least on "High" settings. Whether we'll actually be able to run it on "Very High" settings is yet to be seen.

I would be more impressed with Crysis if not a single person could play the game at high settings!

If crysis was built to take advantage of computer hardware that didn't even exist, this would drive the upgrade cycle and accelerate the pace of technological improvement in computer hardware.

This is what makes PC gaming great, it is always improving. If developers created games that max out using 2 year old video cards, then no one would bother upgrading... ever.If this was the case with PC gaming I would sayF it, I am playing console gamesexclusively from now on.

Yeah i agree,and i would like to add,that games like Quake 4 and Doom 3 were verry demanding,even today when i can max out Rainbow Six Vegas,Colin McraeDirtand those new "graphicaly nice looking games" i cant max out Quake 4.

I think that those new games are just eye candies,but crysis is meant to take graphics to next level. I hope they will do that and make something like ULTRA MEGA NEVER SEEN BEFORE option with verry verry demanding and good graphics :P

Is the demo out already? Is it any good?

I am far too busy with TF2 to even care about crysis right now, and tomorrow my copy of the witcher should come...

I think I might even skip the demo, seeing as how the game is only a couple weeks off now anyway.

Hardware-wise, I'm still using the same rig I built late 2005 for F.E.A.R - besides the 8800gts I got for the UE3 games like bioshock and airborne. Crysis is on my pre-order list and i'm excited for the editor if nothing else, but it just doesn't strike me as seeming like all that greata game.

Will be glad once it's out, though, so we can as a community move past it...

How can you max out R6 Vegas but not Quake 4? Quake 4 uses the Doom3 Engine. If you can max R6 Vegas you can max Quake 4 without any hint of a hitch.Darth_Decessus

Dunno,mybe because rainbow six uses some tricks (like no reflection in water),overused bloom/hdr whateverand such eye candiesthat look good but arent really good graphics.

On other hand Quake 4 have verry good textures,sharp shadows,great modeling,great lightning and bump mapping on everything,but i am not sure...mybe its because of my poor ram..mybe because of bether optimisation of todays games...

I built mine for about 20 upcoming games , Crysis was just the benchmark title.Meu2k7

me too, there are so many graet games coming out how can someone not upgrade his pc

Well, having just played the Crysis demo, all I can say is that it will be worth every penny you spent on a nice rig. The game is amazing. Beautiful, huge outdoor environments, awesome gameplay (your nanosuit adds so much!), good voice acting, etc.

aving a good rig is always good, and Crysis will just be icing on the cake.

Crysis, pretty graphic effects, but an average shooter.

After playing the demo, I see nothing too special for this game other than good graphics. The story is meh, the gun variety is meh, and the gameplay is meh.

Its good, but not the greatest.
