Easier to look at charts :lol:

OMGWTFBBQ!

11fps on very high at times? 16fps on high at times?

Jesus Hubert Christ. that thing EATS computers. I wonder how much power its drawing. :shock:

What it doesn't show is what version of drivers it is running. The new 169.04 drivers run the game much better. You people do realize that the game is not OUT actually yet right? right? Those charts have to be old, cause if not I am running the game better than a GTX is with my GTS...now that doesn't make any sense now does it? Believe the benchmarks once the game is out and everyone is running a driver that is not a beta driver.

We'll see soon enough what the gains are.

Average 41FPS for a GTX 1024x768 @ High DX10, 2GB PC6400, X2 6400+ (Above graph)

Average 28FPS for a 8800 GTS @ 1280x1024, 2GB PC8500, E6600 @ High DX9 (below graph)

Seems about right..

You people aren't listening to me. Forge is a new feature for the Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Sego Genisis, Playstation, Nintendo 64, Neo-Geo, Gamecube, Playstation 2, Dreamcast, Xbox, Xbox 360, Wii and Playstation 3. If we are talking about the PC game of the year then sure whatever. If we are talking about the GOTY than Forge in it's application on consoles can not be ignored as ground breaking, like Halo 3 or not that is a fact. And for the guy talking about picking things up and what have you that is just the means to the end. What is the end? Again, the first real map editor for CONSOLES. Again, for consoles, not the PC butconsoles. I feel I should say the word "console" 3,434 more times just to get it to stick in your minds for the duration of this post, but for fear of the mod stick I will abstain.

And then there is the playback feature, outside of third party applications that has never been done on the PC or otherwise. Another huge factor is how well it did. Again no one can claim more sales than Halo 3.

None of these things are my point though as again I don't think Halo 3 should get GOTY. My point is Crysis shouldn't either. For points already mentioned by myself and others. It is even restrictive to its target group. My computer (R.I.P) could play most games I looked at but would have been absolutely buried by the reqs on Crysis, that alone should say "not GOTY material".

FarCry instincts has a much better, and even more fleshed out, map editor then Halo 3.

The physics in Crysis are new to the genre. Trees/buildings falling down completely unscripted adds A LOT to gameplay. Theyall have weight and can be used as weapons.

I'm talking about the retail version, not the demo...

sales should not matter. playback feature was on quite a number of games on pc like warcraft 3 ,and myth 2(not sure about this)

None of these things are my point though as again I don't think Halo 3 should get GOTY. My point is Crysis shouldn't either. For points already mentioned by myself and others.

why not ? given the amount of stuff that goes on in crysis its otimimized very well. you cannot penalize a game for pushing boundaries of technology.

Did anyone see how well Crysis was performing on their rig?

A Core 2 Duo

2 Gigs or ram (I think)

And a 8800 GT

It was running on High to Very High (No medium) at a steady 30 FPS......

This makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside knowing Crysis will run nicely on my comp:)......

What resolution where you running at, did you have AA on, and are you running it on vista or xp?

My rig=

Quad 6600

2GB ddr800

8800 GTS

Running on Vista I am able to play on High and Very High settings, but I do need to drop the resolution down (1024 sometimes) to get a steady 30fps. All of this is without having any AA turned on. I do not have XP dual booting, but I will in a couple of days. If I get a chance I will try post some of the comparisons.

For those people still going on and on about Halo 3.

1.- Pretty much every fps can do playbacks, in the PC world they are called "timedemos" or demos for short they are files the game records of any match and you can play back on the engine at will. They were originally thought up as benchmarking tools, you would record a demo and play it back on different hardware configurations to test performance, then people realilzed they could use it to watch championship matches on your own copy of the game engine, and they gained more popularity. Now they are used in every game, they are so common they don't even get listed cause it's assumed a FPS will be able to record timedemos. Every game ever made by Valve has it, every game by ID since the original Quake has it, every game in the Battlefield series has it, every game in the Unreal series has it, Far Cry has it and Crysis will have it as well.

So get over it. It's nice that Halo 3 has it and all, very cool, but it's still nothing you should try to brag about or pass as an innovation on a thread about a PC only game.

2.- The Forge, that's also nice, it's also nothing new. On the Steam engine you can even do the most insane real time game editing in any game on any platform ever, and it's also multiplayer, so you can do it with as much people as your server will allow working at the same time, want to buid a giant mecha as tall as a skyscraper with separate controls for arms, legs and torso?

So yeah, it's nice Halo 3 has some new stuff for the 360, and that's very nice and much appreciated, but it's just not impressive in a thread dedicated to a PC only game.
