Just finished Crysis.

And Wow!! Awesome game, easily one of the best shotters this gen. Aside from the graphics this game had it all, interesing story, awesome gameplay, nice levels, good guns and fun online mp.

I dont get why this game is only brought up when talking about graphics because sincerelly this game is much more than that.

Cant wait for Crysis 2 ( when is it coming out?)

What were your thoughs after finishing the game?

[QUOTE="kieranb2000"]Crysis 2's date is still TBA. And if you liked Crysis I recommend buying the Spin-off, Crysis Warhead. It also comes with Crysis Wars which is a substantially better online game than the vanilla Crysis game. I personally think Crysis is one of, if not the, best FPSes on the PC. And in general really.Solid_Tango

If I remember correctly, I clocked Warhead in around 5 hours, can't remember exactly though. To me, there were certain points that were better in Crysis than Warhead, and vice versa. Least there weren't as many annoying helicopters.

You can always take your time in Warhead. Just ignore the radio chatter that makes it seem like you've got to hurry up.

Crysis was really amazing gameplay wise i thought. I do like it for the graphics a lot too though. It gives me something to keep building a better pc for at the moment.

when does Crysis 2 come out?

Crysis was a good game right up until the point the aliens appeared. That just ruined it for me.

Agree with almost everything you said.. bar the interesting storyline part lol. Very good game and I think the sequel will be even better, provided they tweak a bit of the AI etc and really give this one a good polish. It would be glorious if the AI was more reactive so you could create diversions outside of bases, such as blowing up a truck so they will leave their positions and inspect it. biggest_loser

both crysis and crysis warhead have amazing final levels. every few weeks i just load it up to play though the last levels again

i can't wait for crysis 2

Hmmm... I like crysis and warhead... altho I do not think it is that special (far cry ruined it for me I guess ^^ )

Crysis clocked in at 9 hours for me

and warhead clocked in at 6 hours for me.

I do like the games, I like the shooting mechanics, and I generally like the game, hate the music tho ^^

I finished it 3 times already. one in normal one in hard and one in delta. The game is great with an ok story. My only problem with crysis is the horrible,horrible,extremely horrible vtol level ( in myt first run of crysis that level made me quit the game for a month )

Crysis warhead is also a great game although the original crysis imo is better. It last about 6-7 hours ( strongly recommend play it at delta difficulty )

another thing for you is essesntial is to visit CRYMOD.com. There are alot of custom levels ( many of wich are conrtain a mission ) to download and some are great ( strongly recommend downloading the Intel mapping contest single player map pack since it contains the best custom levels )

it always crashes when i try to load it up.

Well people are always barging into the "I Love Far Cry 2' threads and saying that Far Cry 2 sucks, so I'm going to give it back to them, and say that Crysis sucks. I bought the Maximum Edition in May, and I hated it.

The graphics were a serious letdown. I had been expecting SO much more.

And by the way, my computer is brand new, from Alienware, and people, when they see it on my desk, are always asking me to turn it on and show it to them. These are non-gamers, meaning of course that they're completely non-biased about computer games.

So which game makes their eyes light up in fascination? Nope, sorry, it's not your beloved Crysis. Every time... and I mean every time... without fail... the game that makes them react is GTA 4. I show them Crysis first and, honestly, they don't react at all. Here's what's really interesting though: they don't even react to the water, which I thought was the only good part about Crysis's graphics.

But show them GTA 4 and suddenly their faces light up, and they start pointing things out on the screen. Crysis is over-rated. Meh.

I loved the VTOL lvl

I agree bud! The first time i got to play Crysis all teh way thru i was blown away! It just sucked me in with its atmosphere, gameplay and amazing graphics!

Simply one of the best singleplayer FPS of all time imo (Not the best but top 5 for me).

Hands down the best singleplayer FPS this gen imo (along with Stalker).

By the way is there any patch for Crysis? nothing showed up when i installed the game:s ( i m used to get a automatic notification when there is a patch for a game because the ps3 does that :P ) if there is one, where do i download it and how do i install it? Thanks!Solid_Tango

Yes there are some patches/updates.

Go to google and seach for "Crysis update 1.1" and "Crysis update 1.2" and lastly "Crysis update 1.2.1".

Install them IN THAT ORDER. The patches help performance a bit, along with some of the other bugs.

Exactly, people that see it are non-gamers. and So what if your computer is brand new alienware? Some alienware are expensive but not quite a good build. Frankly, I can build better with price lower than them and performance better than them. Most probably, it's either you're alienware failed in crysis or you're just new to gaming.

Because when u said your PC is brand new alienware, makes me think you're a young kid that sees PC gaming same as a console, FYI it's different, PC is not something you PLUG-N-PLAY and thats it. u probably must learn how hardwares work son. im out.

REforever101

Have to disagree. Crysis had a horribly buggy final boss fight. Warhead's went smoothly and ended in a nice cutscene, but it was just a matter of shooting the baddie with the plasma gun thing X number of times. Normally boss fights require a certain amount of strategy.

[QUOTE="dakan45"][QUOTE="REforever101"] so many people say that.....but for some reason i liked the game exponentially more after they showed up :|Solid_Tango

The aliens were pretty one dimensional and boring imo, and it dragged on a bit. On the other hand I love the expression on a korean when you grab him by the throat haha. And cloaking when there's a party of them looking for you only to sneak up and grab one as a meatshield while you knock off a few and then go back to your cloak never seems to get old :P

What was buggy about Crysis final boss fight? dnuggs40

The avatar or even the boss no-clipping through the floor into a room in the carrier. The helicopter not coming close enough for you to jump in at the end. Could have been done alot better imo.

split-moment

You're right. I know nothing about PCs. I've only owned 5 of them in my lifetime. The simple fact is that I've been working with computers since before you were born. My father was an electrical engineer who programmed one of the very first mainframe computers from IBM. I grew up with punch-cards scattered about all over the house. Do you even know what a punch-card is? Do you know what an 8088 chips is? I had one of the first 8088 computers right in my room growing up as a kid, because my dad didn't have any place in the house to put it. When my friends came into my room and saw the computer on my desk they all said the same thing, what's that? And then they would ask, what's it for? Then I would show them a game called Zork, and they wouldn't want to go home. To say that I know nothing about computers is kind of silly. Oh well, if you want to believe that.

Crysis is neither good nor bad...its just bleh.Too many bleh games these days...nice eye candy though.

Calling the AI "intelligent" is a major stretch.

the graphics was great,but its not a major issue for me as long as the graphics is good enough to make me engaged in the game.the nano suit was awesome specially in WarHead,Maximum speen was excellent.but i have to say,the game can get boring sometimes.and the loading time was crazy long
