For me it was a game that got better as it went on. Towards the end it really is brilliant. But I think the graphics and motion blur do a lot for it; not sure if it would be as fun on low settings

where is that "all the hate"?

what exactly do Crysis fanboys want? every single gamer knees down to it?

check every Crysis related thread, every one negative post would have ten postive counter posts.

I think the consensus on Crysis is generally extremely positive. It's one of the best first-person shooter experiences the PC has to offer. An issue people often take up with it is that they think "Good graphics = Bad Gameplay" for some crazy reason. Perhaps their PC isn't up to the task and feel the need to slander it. Crytek's Far Cry was a much less evolved game with great graphics and that also did amazingly well.

lol, all too true. Its because the game is what you MAKE OF IT, and not everyone makes the greatest time of it, without any guidance.

I cant stand it because i upgraded my PC TWICE and it still couldnt run it for crap on high settings. Even medium settings had an eh...framerate (roughly 20-25) low held about 20 as well.

Crysis only needed more character dev and a better story, I've cared about the main character, it was so cheezy! the gameplay is kinda good, typical FPS gameplay, but the suit really adds some great abilities. The graphics are amazing, but you need to empty your bucket on a high end computer to max this game out. Personally I enjoyed Half-Life 2 & EP2 more.

A better question is why do you care as long as you enjoy it? There are always people who don't like a certain game. Crysis was hated mostly because of the performance people's computers would get playing it. Some didin't like the aliens. Some are just never enjoying games anymore.

EDIT: A little research goes a long way. Without a shadow of a doubt, Hellboard is certainly thenewau25. The bad grammar, the Crysis hate, and the similar Final Fantasy avatar. We have a match.

Ah, well it's a bummer for be bud due to I never can find the sweet spot for Crysis. When I think I'm at the mark point of really enjoying Crysis I eventually become overwhelm of the exact opposite. Graphically Crysis is marvelous but alot seem to be lacking in the gameplay department specifically multiplayer which overall was a big disappointment for me. I'm thinking of purchasing Crysis Warhead granted Crytek deserves the support. Nevertheless to answer your question I don't see how one can despise Crysis...

i adored the game and cherish it. played it 6 times and warhead about 4 times. Open ended gameplay although the only level i didn't like was the alien ship (though it coud've been done better). Its not entirely a sandbox game but it leaves it open to the player's creativity with the action. what i don't get is that people complain about its linearity but then at the same time they praise games like half life which is at linear as it gets and at its release was great graphics. sure half life has a better story and characters but Crysis is not far behind. I mean at least the hero talks unlike gordon freeman. i woud've preferred he have some kind of voice to expand on the story. Don't get me wrong i love the HL series but Crysis is like...well if Half life (and games of that calibre) are my girlfriend then Crysis is the girl i really and truly want to be with.

Yeah that somebody is me. Why is it that in SW all you do is bash PC games and apparently prefer consoles when all the games you have rated are on PC? I smell a fakeboy, and a hypocrite.

No i stopped filling my list since....well i don't remember it was a long time ago i will feel it one day, as for SW i just really despise the way the hardcore pc gamers bash every console on SW...Kinda annoys people know what i mean i am starting to believe that the forums on these sites are all about fanboyizm and bashing, what is fakeboy anyway?

Best fps ever? Definitely not. Good game? Yes. I played it on crap settings and I still liked the graphics and the suit abilities are great for gameplay. However, story is a borefest, and the alien space ship level was more frustrating then fun (although the artwork in that level is beautiful).

I played it on the Athlon 64 system in my sig, and I had to run it at the absolute lowest settings to get playable framerates, which left it looking a bit like the original Far Cry -- in other words, viewable, but definitely not "pretty". My problem with the game is that I found it to be nothing more than yet another generic, shallow, uninspired, mindless first-person shooter, and this becomes painfully obvious once you play it without all the graphical glitz and glam. Even when I later got to see the game running on my friend's system at higher settings, there wasn't anything about it that really grabbed me. You run around, you shoot stuff, you cycle suit abilities, lather, rinse, repeat. I'm not saying that Crysis is terrible or that it can't be an enjoyable game, but I really don't think anybody would have bought or paid any attention to it at all if it weren't for the graphics, because there just isn't much else there to make it stand out. That's my beef with the game.

Generic? how was it generic, Its so different and advanced from every other fps and you can do things your way or try different tactics which require a thought... by that i mean its not mindless, its not just another fps its something different not every fps has a nanosuit, its true that just like doom 3 and fear its another game with graphics and that mainly grabbed the minority of gamers, but besides that its so much more eg how much freedom the game has...

Crysis was fantastic, if there is anyone hating it. It's probably because their rig couldn't handle it.

It's certainly one of the better FPS's I've played in recent years, although that isn't saying too much since it feels as if each FPS is a clone of another at times. Obviously you can't talk about Crysis without making mention of the graphics, but even playing the game on medium settings is still a blast.

C'mon guys, leave Hellboard alone.

I just finished Crysis for the first time on my new system, using one of those Ultra configs. It was AGAIN completely different then I remembered it (gameplay-wise).

It was just as fun when I played it on a craptastic rig with a Nvidia 6600 (below minimum!).

It's a great game. But the last two bosses blow. Warhead is better :)

Ok wait a second.

I played Far Cry 1 and Crysis felt almost EXACTLY like that game except I could go inviz.

sorry for disagreeing but in far cry i duck and shoot everyone, in crysis however that method fails because they kill the characters defense and accuracy so you will use the nanosuit more often thats the crap i was referring...also if you don't turn invisible, your character lights up like a Christmas tree.. everyone can spot you right away unlike far cry.

It's a great game. But the last two bosses blow. Warhead is better :)

couldn't agree more especially on the last two bosses and warhead is much better.

I didn't really like Warhead too much. Last two bosses were prettyf lame though haha

C'mon guys, leave Hellboard alone.

ive played too many games these past few years which everyone seemed to adore and i must say most of them didnt last long. than i finally get my hands on crysis ive played about 1 hr of it only and i must say already i can tell ill be replaying this baby. its hard to explain how fantastic it is! flimflammers200

Firstly, crysis is an exact copy of Far Cry.

Second, the AI, as usual, and as in far cry, is a joke:

Third, the core gameplay - stealth in the jungle - is broken, since NPCs can see through rocks, trees and bushes. I guess their x-ray vision goes nicely with their autoaim.

Also, the combat reminds me of a mixture of gunman chronicles and MOH on PSone. Meaning the combat feels 10 years old

I think there is some hate for the game because it shows a major flaw in the current gaming market, that graphics can completely make a game. From a technical standpoint, the graphics were awesome (aside from terrible looking glass and some other lower res textures sprinkled throughout the game). This doesn't make the entire game though and it probably shouldn't be so highly regarded because of these issues. 1. The AI was stupid - as in "I am gonna get you!" and then they run back and froth over and over again apparently bugging out on what the best cover was. One of many moments I had with the human AI (didn't have issues with Alien AI though). Maybe highest level of AI fixes this though? I only played on the second highest level and wasn't about to replay the game. 2. Buggy - My jeeps had no back wheels. Faces jumped from anguished to happy on dead bodies. Vehicles went crazy over the world geometry. Physics engine was buggy and left me with hilarious results. 3. The game was much too easy - The invisible power made the game much to easy. 4. Not a lot of innovation - nothing but a run of the mill super soldier with a power suit storyline, was still good but nothing special. 5. Alien ship level - Do I really need to say more? Sure it is one part of the game but when the game is only ~6 hours long it ends up being a large part of the game. The game deserves credit for what it did do well but there was a lot that it did wrong. I won't argue with the reviews because that is just opinion and the graphics leave an overall feeling of "wow". There will be "hate" from the people that can look past the graphics and wanted something more.

The King always gets some hate 8)

Awesome graphics, top notch gameplay, amazing presentation and a fun factor that is VERY HIGH!

Only thing that coulda been improved imo was the story.

Story is my favorite part of games, but when a game like Crysis does everything besides story so well, i can over look a average story.
