I mean, I think that due to Crysis 2 being worked with on consoles, the PC quality will decrease. I really hope that it doesn't turn to this, and that Crytek will make the PC version first, and then port it to the consoles however they want to do it, so that Crysis 2 either keeps the quality of the original or even improves on some mechanics.

To be honest, I really want C2 to work out, and from what I've seen in a few videos, it still looks good.

Opinions?

I think they will make both at the same time, like most fps devs. The fps genre has exploded on console, its basically all fps games or nintendo games in the top 10 month after month.

The engine has been optimized so much to work on current consoles they had planned the engine for the 2012 consoles. So the CryEngine 3 is more or less future proof. So they will push the PC hardware and modders will push it even more. Lets face it graphic mods for the 1st crysis look so much better then original settings now.

As soon as I heard/read the line "If it doesnt work on the console it gets dropped". This does not mean that the game will be bad but IT does mean we are missing out on possibly awesomeness.

I have a feeling it will fail big time on console, with halo reach and call of duty black ops coming out around the same time... It will probably do fine on pc and crytek might realize something.

Judging from the PC gameplay that Crytek showed on their site the game looks much better on PC. The framerate looks really bad though, which is worrying.

IMO if it wasn't for the graphics the first Crysis would of been a pretty average game. The gameplay wasn't anything real special, so if its main selling point goes down in quality then what we're left with will just be another average shooter.

says you, I havent played anything that matches what the gameplay does in crysis. Everything else just feels restrictive in comparison.

Yeah you're right, I especially love the part where the little alien things just hover around you shooting you and you have to take down their sheilds and then kill them one by one. Oh man so much fun!

Game would of been good if they had of learnt from their mutant mistake and not included aliens.

bc2 is optimized great for pc... pretty scalable. I mean an 8800 can play it better than either console at a higher res, what more do you want?

Tell that to me 260gtx and quad core which should be doing better. The game uses all of my processor and none of my videocard; thats how you tell its a console port.

are you serious? i dont think you know what a poorly optimized game for the PC looks like. On topic, we`ll have to wait and see, so far they have shown nothing i have found interesting even though i loved the first one.

Well then does anyone care to help me out? I have a q6600 @ 2.9ghz, 4g ram and a 260gtx 216sp OC. I run at high on dx9, windows 7 at 1600x900 and my fps drops into the 30s way too much. Other games run fine

Which sucks for me because my GPU is better than my CPU. I have to run BC2 on low at 1440x900 getting 25-30 fps when I can play Crysis on high with AA with 40-50 fps that looks much better than BC2. BC2 was optimized poorly but it is nowhere near as bad as some other console ports.

The point of the CE3 is that the developer can make a game for the pc and have it automatically port to the consoles, so the quality shouldn't suffer.

Indeed. but in making the CE3 a lot of time went into developing it for consoles. Don't get me wrong CE3 will look amazing on pc but I don't expect the same jump in fidelity, graphics and physics like CE1 to CE2
