- Sifter, on 10/19/2007, -3/+191First thought: "Wow! Very High looks awesome. Look at those rocks!"
Second thought: "Man, I'm impressed by the graphics of rocks. Something tells me I'm getting too geeky......." - limezor2, on 10/19/2007, -3/+119The worst looks like FarCry.
- tuzziel, on 10/21/2007, -5/+91Yet, the lowest ugliest setting shows mosts clearly the important stuff, like items, enemies etc.
- NyteStarNyne, on 10/16/2007, -1/+82Your crappy graphics card will blot out the sun, and you will fight in the shade!
- Akaji, on 10/16/2007, -2/+77Stills are rarely as impressive as videos. Go look up some Crysis videos if you want to be impressed.
- seanthebond, on 10/19/2007, -22/+95I honestly wasn't too impressed by those shots...
- ItchyRichy, on 10/19/2007, -1/+68Also note that the beta includes an Extreme option that is greyed out as no commercially available hardware can produce the settings at a satisfactory frame rate.
oh shi- - agent42, on 10/30/2007, -13/+72Is anyone else looking at the DX10 screenshot and thinking "looks awesome... still not installing vista though."
- capiCrimm, on 10/14/2007, -2/+45agreed, gaming would be so much easier if health pack and guns were bright florescent colors. Everything else can be light grey.
- 3rnesto, on 10/19/2007, -3/+43Could have showed some better angles the only thing you can notice different is the rocks.
- noseeme, on 10/27/2007, -1/+35Look at that boulder! That is a NICE boulder!
- dn11, on 10/19/2007, -0/+34 they should still let you turn it on, so you can experience awesome slo mo graphics at 2 FPS
- h4mx0r, on 10/19/2007, -5/+38GOOD GOD. This cannot be true! The lowest settings look like a 404!
- Christbait, on 11/14/2007, -0/+30Back in the day, my system could barely run Max Payne, it was bullet time ALL the time, baby!
- dbr_onix, on 10/12/2007, -1/+27Isn't that how, err, cheaters play?
- inactive, on 10/28/2007, -1/+24Yeah, like they were rendered on a computer or something!
- TheTaoOfBill, on 10/13/2007, -4/+24Or...and I'm stretching on this one...technology improved.
- itseffinkasey, on 10/19/2007, -3/+23For some reason I like the clouds in the lowest setting the best.
- dannyboy3020, on 10/12/2007, -2/+18It does look like FarCry...FarCry at its best!
- cvrefugee, on 10/19/2007, -5/+20I would basically have to buy a whole new system in order to play Crysis (stuck on AGP). The Xbox 360 version is a great deal for me.
- MagicCake, on 10/19/2007, -6/+21Already have Vista, and after seeing that I'm particularly glad I do. :)
- frsrblch, on 10/13/2007, -7/+22Farcry looked better than that...
- rville, on 10/19/2007, -0/+15From what I have experienced with World in conflict and with Bioshock the difference between dx10 and dx9 doesn't show up really well in still shots.
The biggest difference I have noticed is the smoke, fog and explosion effects which look very realistic with dx10. - Kerath, on 10/28/2007, -1/+15Fake?
- specialK16, on 10/19/2007, -2/+15That's low? My computer would implode with that.
- Firehed, on 10/28/2007, -4/+17Too bad that Crysis isn't coming to the 360. Yes, it makes me sad too.
- STKD, on 10/14/2007, -1/+13"I wonder if Multiplayer will be that way."
It is. You may think you're hidden in deep vegetation but to players on low settings, you're crawling in the dirt and there is no vegetation. TBH multiplayer at the minute is ***** beyond belief. - MerryMortician, on 10/19/2007, -0/+11I foresee a lot of deaths while standing on rocks looking around at the pretty world.
- Extracheese, on 10/13/2007, -1/+12Well said. cracked me up.
- Naqaj, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10also known as "marketing *****" ...
- Megatog615, on 10/19/2007, -0/+10I guess it's their job to intimidate me with the Extreme option then.
Thing is, most games have had an option like this for a while, ever since Doom3 had the "Ultra" option, when nobody could run it. It was used as a benchmark instead. - Frostman3D, on 10/19/2007, -0/+10I only have a 7900gtx, so I'll miss out on the DirectX10 stuff, but that's ok, I just don't feel like I should have to buy a new $400-$600 video card every 2 years.
- Kumate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10Team Fortress 2?
- darthbob, on 10/19/2007, -0/+10Mirror: http://img162.imageshack.us/img162/6396/crysisvert ...
Site's going slow right now. - RuthlessPirate, on 10/19/2007, -1/+11Very low plus some shadows really wouldn't look that bad.
- Dhalgren, on 10/19/2007, -3/+12I think the low looks fine...
- Firehed, on 10/19/2007, -1/+10Which all things considered is still pretty good.
- grumbel, on 10/13/2007, -1/+10Reality disagrees: http://flickr.com/photos/abb/1261303487/
Sunrays are (near) parallel, so shadows stay the same wide, unless of course when the sun his behind the object, then they fall into your direction and due to perspective they look widened them, terrain shape can do some more to deform them in unexpected ways. - anonymous666, on 10/28/2007, -0/+9Play Outside v1.0 Final if you want better graphics
- SoulGrub, on 10/19/2007, -0/+9Hmm better check your eyes!
- bagboyrebel, on 10/15/2007, -0/+9except it's a PC only game.
- doublej42, on 10/19/2007, -0/+8they are a simple skybox effect, instead of being volumetric.
- rkiga, on 10/19/2007, -1/+9http://duggmirror.com/gaming_news/Crysis_Graphic_C ...
I was about to say something about not caring if game graphics don't improve past farcry and that it's all about gameplay, but damn the lack of tracks in the sand on low setting just look like crap. I'm a sucker too now :( - swrostmore, on 10/19/2007, -0/+8That's the difference between parallax mapping and normal mapping - the former can occlude itself (increasing the illusion of depth), while 'bumping up' a normal map would only result in blown-out shadows/highlights
- HouseofEl, on 10/20/2007, -1/+9These shots look good, but I'm sort of underwhelmed. This certainly isn't a knock on the game or the developers, but can we please do something other than the super soldier that has to fight aliens? Graphics: Great. Concept: Bad. Looks good, but that's only going to last so long before you realize you are playing the same game you played last year. Unless there is also a drastic change in game play, it's just like the thousands of remakes Hollywood puts out. It's time to think of something new folks. Game developers need to understand that graphics do make part of the game, but story and game play complete it.
- ApacheVE3D, on 10/19/2007, -0/+8site should be okay now, had to give it a kick in the bottom. wasnt expecting to be dug at 10:30 pm :)
- Dracusis, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Probably because there is no HDR lighting in Medium so everything looks over-expsosed. Once you see it all in motion you'll quickly change your mind.
- Smills, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Hate to break it to you but you aren't gunna be running Crysis well on last generation mid-range cards.
- Kerath, on 10/28/2007, -2/+9If it was being developed for the 360 too, it wouldn't look as good.
