This is Crysis!!!!!! (56k warning)

Crysis amazing !!

waiting for this, one of the hotest games in 2007.

it's a bit blurry. does the main protagonist wear contact lenses and because he was rudely awoken to go to war he forgot to put them in?my_name_is_ron

That's called a real effect.

Because, when you look at something closer than another object, you cannot see the other object clear.

It forces you to focus on what's actually realistic. I love it!

ArmA has it - and it makes the game a whole lot cooler.

Black also had a blurring effect when realoding aswell.

Dont even bother. These fanboys dont get it. They only see things in their way. Any to them can look bad. But teh teh halo3 will be teh bestist uv da ho whide word.Killfox

this post doens't do the game justice. this game just needs to come out for PC gamers and hpefully on console.ocdog45

:evil:My only problem is...this christmas I dont know if I should get a gaming PC,or PS3.Sigh...I hate being confused.

if it's a question of playing the game with what the gamer has then surely the console gamer understands that better as there is no option to upgrade a console and if there's a really good game that looks awful then the console gamer would have to make do. i'm sure it's just the minority of pc gamers that insist on running everything at max and upgrading their system every fortnight but the option is there to every single pc gamer to make their system better so that it can handle the cutting edge games. you can't put something new into a console to make the game look and run smoother...

New HUD, let's compare:

baddog121390

I like the newer HUD. It seems less obtrusive and suited to high-resolutions, and not very consolized. Hate consolized UIs in PC Games.

yeah, the gs forums are incredibly irrepresentative of the general game-playing public. especially system wars

The rocket launcher/mortar made me crap my pants. I can see many, many drunken nights just sitting up in the jungle randomly shooting mortars at the enemy camps and seeing all the carnage that ensues. Seriously, this game just looks so polished now.

This will be the new king of the genre, the new bar will be set.

Woooa!

I watched the new video, and I must say. Crysis is looking EVEN BETTER than before, not just visually, but gameplay wise. The A.i is also looking alot sharper, running away, jumping over fences ect.

And the weapons and effects are awesome.

The rocket launchers 'bombardment' ability is wicked, and the weapon modifications is the best, and most slick ive seen in a game.

Oh boy I cant wait to get my mits on it. That and the Sandbox Editor :D

'edit' /\ haha funny we both mention the rocket launcher that the same time :P

You should feel good. Your one of the ones that actually get us hermits. If more people would just listen and stop telling themselves what they should think and stop being so narrow minded. Im glad that you have been so patient with us and trying to understand. You made this thread so much more rewarding. I understand to a lot what your saying.

Man more misconceptions. Lots of people will be able to max with puppy easily. PC gamers are willing to pay the price to play games at max settings. Which doesnt mean you have to spend a lot of money. Ill be able to easily with my new rig. Q6600, P35, and 8800GTS/X/HD2900XT. Still not sure yet. Plus i got got my monitor. So sweet.

Graah this makes me remember I need a new video card!

Still stuck between the 8800 320/640 or 2900 512

Grrraaaah what runs Crysis and UT3 better will be the ultimate decider.

The 8800 640 is still a tad cheaper.

Thanks. I plan on all building around the end of july towards the beginning of august. See. I got $800 from my paretns for graduation and I also got $1800 from my party that i had for it.(I can only spend some of that) Then i got my birthday which i rake in about another $600. I also work. So my rig really all depends on much i make over the summer and how much i actually have to spend. Ill most likely have around $1500 to spend. hopefully.

Im kind of in the same boat as you. I dont know if how these cards perform in DX10. I would think the HD2900XT would since it seems to be more fitted for DX10 games. Drivers are getting better as well. I dont know. Or i might just go all out and get a 8800GTX but i dont know how the HD2900XT will perform next to a GTX. So im gunna have to wait and see.

Still in terms of clock settings, and pixel pushing I dont know whats better.

Whens this coming out? i need to buy some RAM and a new graphics cardpretty soon here. I think Pentium 4 3.0is good enough?-Sora

September. Supposedly. I would get a better CPU as well. Well it depends on the GFX card you get. It might cause a crazy bottleneck in GPU since the CPU is lacking. Buy RAM now. I mean now. Prices are rediculously cheap but once intel drops their prices on their CPUs on july 22. Expect them to sky rocket back up. You can get 2Gb of XMS2 ram right now for $91. Which is an awesome deal.

This game is going to amazing.:D

ACutally I was wondering if my 939 socked AMD X2 4800, and DDR400 RAM would bottle-neck a 8800 or 2900....

It worries me that im going to spend the $ for such a great card, and not get the full preformance.

I guess it was worth searching for the last 4800 939 socket in the country (australia), that didnt cost $800+ AUD.

Got it for $300...

To think there is now 2 retailers left selling them, and one of the prices is $1343.00

PC hardware prices suck here in Australia :(

And you think thats bad, your should see console prices.... And console game prices.

I mean $999 AUD for a PS3... You have gotta be kidding.

Thats 855.84 USD!

And a 360 in USD $556.85 is almost as much as a U.S PS3!

Graaaah!

Newegg.com would make so much more money if they shipped outside the US.

Hell yea /\

Its all about the PC over there :P

You wont EVEN NEED AN 8800 or VISTA if you want Crysis to look like that video because that was DX9!!!

Yeah it was DX9, but it was most probably still using an 8800 GTX.

Yeah they probably did have this new video running on an 8800GTX, but its awesome that we are able to have this quality of graphics without needing an 8800, but man I can't wait till they release NEW DX10 footage its gonna own harder than this video.

Also, it would make since having the 7800 GTX's running videos in the past they said that it runs quite well on 7800 hardware on up.

Yeah, but it drives me crazy how everyone thinks you need a super compute that costs $5000 to run this maxxed. Most of the footage we've seen has been in DX9, and even one of the recent gameplay demonstrations have been in DX9 (which looks absolutley amazing, I thought it was DX10). So a 7 high end 7 series card is perfectly fine for Crysis.

Looks good !

but i dont think the gameplay will be good !!!(see te videos!)

Some of you guys act as if you'll get exactly what you see in those pictures and videos if you run on above mid-range hardware.

I remember all the Half Life 2 fanboys going "Oh, and you won't need an X800 to have those superb graphics! You can play on the PC you played Half Life1 on!" Yeah right. PCs may have the edge in gaming, but they're certainly not miracle workers.

It doesn't work like that, never will. Somewhere down the line, you'll say "Wait a minute...." and check back to see how smooth and crisp the videos were.

My suggestion? Save up for a PC that will arm you for what's beyond Crysis. That way, you won't be dissapointed.
