been playin crysis of and on over the past few days... after of course running thru the CoD and UT3 demos....
it's fun, actually no, it's a lot of fun.....once i worked out a few bugs and figured out my optimal settings (that in-game optimal settings helper is no help....it always sets it to very-high...) it runs well and looks good. i likehow they give you a giant map, and an objective but the rest is up to you. usally i take the most direct and psychotic route only toswitch to camo/speed to run away becausei underestimated the amount of north korean firepower......but having the option to take them out one by one isa fun and neat concept.i'm starting to learn that it's all about stealth and speed of which you attack.its like a cooler version of farcry.
Moonslash will say that the game doesn't have much of a story but i beg to differ. it may notbe super original (Human vs. Human, then later human vs alien menace) but at least it puts an orginal twist on it. the whole nano-suit ablity things adds an extra layer of fun to my cake, and i like that. one thing that gets on my nerves though is that they kill2/4 of your friendly neighborhood NPC's in the first 3 missions....leaving you and the "wise-ass" to get stuff done.
Another thing i hate, is how your almost always alone! what are your allies always doing that you have to complete all these objectives alone! are they doing they're laundry or something?! and when one of your allies finally comes along for the ride he sits there and beats off while you battle an entire company of North Koreans....lame...come on crytech, your better than that...
i'll update later with details on combat andother things. but for now i have to go forth and kick some serious korean ass....
