But can the internet run Crysis 2?
stopsuckingAug 20, 2010
I tried but my computer couldn't play it...wait for it...
spazattack5000Aug 20, 2010
I really thought I was going to be witty coming here to say that.
sndreamAug 20, 2010
Can't wait to play in 5 years when the hardware to run it is available.
superpineconeAug 20, 2010
When Crysis 1 came out, the hardware to make it run was already available, but making it run on ultra without stuttering was not, until a few months later.
norman619Aug 20, 2010
Umm it's on console so the hardware is already here. LOL!
random314Aug 20, 2010
Crysis 2's requirement is suppose to be lower than that of Crysis 1
jrohdeddsAug 20, 2010
My graphics card is already crying...
zombybrainzAug 20, 2010
Looks like they're trying to turn it into MW2.
norman619Aug 20, 2010
LOL!!! You seriously think MW2 was the first military style multiplayer game?
zombybrainzAug 20, 2010
You didn't see the chopper/plane at the end? Looks a lot like killstreak bonuses to me.
norman619Aug 20, 2010
Zomby:
wow... MW2 was not a unique game. Did you start gaming with MW2 came out or something?
ewaffleAug 20, 2010
It is not Tribes... do not want.

"You didn't see the chopper/plane at the end? Looks a lot like killstreak bonuses to me."
none of that is in any way unique to or originated in MW2
thegurustudAug 21, 2010
ewaffle: Oh how I miss tribes! :(
Tribes 1 MP and Deus Ex 1 SP - best games ever.
freetalkliveAug 20, 2010
If MW2 and Halo had a kid, it would be this bastard child of a game.
I hate mixed breeds.
cyriakAug 21, 2010
Sadly, I have to agree.
tenioAug 20, 2010
Seems...off
like random people just running around and appearing everywhere...no tactics from what I could see.
I played the original crysis and it had a much better multiplayer system...just a simple "base wars" game... but it was a lot of fun and had some pretty epic battle. Plus I didn't see any vehicle which were a major part of the first game.
jasonallen19Aug 20, 2010
This is just one small level that they said they used to show up close and intense battle for a trailer. Most of the people playing were people from teh crowd that had never played before.. So nobody was used to the game yet. You had one or two Crytek people running around playing. There is supposed to be some very massive maps in Crysis 2 that are for more players.. vehicles, etc. You can apparently get in and drive almost every functioning car you see.
Btw.. i still play Crysis Wars daily.
tenioAug 20, 2010
Thanks for the info
nidy1Aug 20, 2010
The 3 people whose computers can run this are going to have some awesome matches together.
norman619Aug 20, 2010
What you were seeing is CONSOLE footage.
verkonAug 20, 2010
And that means that people with computers can run it? Or what? No multiplayer for pc? Is that what you're trying to say?
jasonallen19Aug 20, 2010
The engine renders the game according to the system it is being played on. It will be exactly the same game on PC, except textures won't be as compressed, lighting will be more advanced, more antialiasing, etc. But the core game code stands independant of any one system.
norman619Aug 20, 2010
verkon: You seem to need far more help than what I can provide.
schmichAug 21, 2010
Console's are getting old. If you can't run what consoles can run it might be time to upgrade your Pentium 4. Don't forget that Crytek made their engine more efficient so it could run on console. The first version of the engine was too heavy for consoles.
greengoooAug 20, 2010
but can it... ah forget it.
mixeaoAug 20, 2010

jamdoggAug 20, 2010
...and what did you find?
vistrelAug 20, 2010
WOW...New York City, close quarter battles, huge cross-hairs....haven't seen that before...
jasonallen19Aug 20, 2010
You haven't seen it like this before. This is a nearly perfect render of NYC.. Many of the buildings are near exact replicas.. Compare the "maxlife" building in Crysis 2 to the MetLife building in real life. EXACTLY the same. Not all battles are close quarters either..
drikleAug 20, 2010
Hell f**king Yeah !
jasonallen19Aug 20, 2010
The engine is actually more fine tuned than it was for Crysis 1. Much better memory management, and a huge benefit of being in the city is the lack of complex foliage and huge open areas that required so much overhead. If you check out incrysis.com you can find all kinds of information about this game should run 15-25% better than Crysis 1. The footage we see is on PC, but using 'xbox' settings, meaning everything is within the resource restrains of the xBox (and how they plan to ship it for xbox). This is basically xbox footage. I love all the melee. I love how you can literally slide tackle someone and break their legs with the butt of your gun. (he does it around 1:10) in the video.

I AM GOING TO MAKE A WITTY COMMENT ABOUT HOW MY COMPUTER IS NOT POWERFUL ENOUGH TO RUN THIS GAME
shadicAug 20, 2010
BUT CAN YOUR COMMENT RUN CRYSIS?
mixeaoAug 20, 2010
STILL WAITING FOR WITTY COMMENT

IF YOU ORDER NOW YOU'LL GET THESE HARDWARE BRAND STICKERS TO PUT ON THE CASE SO YOU AND YOUR MOTHER, WHEN SHE CLEANS THE BASEMENT, KNOW WHAT PC COMPONENTS YOU HAVE!
allbodiesAug 20, 2010
I feel like if it's going to be on consoles than the system specs shouldn't be TOO ridiculous. People are overreacting.
tonycubedAug 20, 2010
Looks like one of those games were spawning is going to be an issue...
unic0rnAug 20, 2010
The water effects were gorgeous.
I really wish all games had graphics like this. And I had the system to run them at full....
jasonallen19Aug 20, 2010
It's cool to know that most of the guys that made GoldenEye64 are the same guys making Crysis 2 multiplayer.
jcsocAug 20, 2010
Console FPS' suck
deadsoldierAug 20, 2010
Looks like it will be a console port for the PC then I suppose? :(
On the bright-side, now even a 5 year old gaming rig will be able to run Crysis 2!
Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.
taxmoreAug 20, 2010
At first I thought the player was just awful.. but then I saw he was on console.. so he and the console are both bad.

Is this real life?!???

tyrghastAug 20, 2010
The first Crysis looked great but had a terrible plot and the multiplayer was a complete Battlefield rip with a Counter-Strike buy system instead of classes.
My hopes are not high for this game to be anything other than mediocre.
jimpimAug 20, 2010
Looks like s**t thanks to multi-platform development.
azathothhAug 20, 2010
the graphics look like Crysys 1...
jasonallen19Aug 20, 2010
You're seeing console footage. The engine can render to different formats on the fly. You build in the sandbox, and then render it down to PS3, XBOX, PC.. whatever. It's strange.. there really isn't any porting involved. The engine takes care of it.

Those are PC quality shots.
2046smhAug 20, 2010
That was er, underwhelming.
thebiochemistAug 20, 2010
Yes, but can it run Crysis?
pathouston22Aug 20, 2010
Oh boy, run and gun with no tactics. Can't wait not to play it!
pathouston22Aug 20, 2010
Ooops, I guess reloading in front of the enemy is an amazing console feature.

It's strange.. there really isn't any porting involved. The engine takes care of it. Other games are enjoying the same benefits with teh engine. Check out Forged by Chaos. Using the same engine as Crysis 2.

Oh, and here are PC quality screen shots.

Look at the MAX Life building in this pic
http://www6.incrysis.com/screenshots/c2e3screen3.jpg
And compare it to the Met Life building in real life.

It's exactly the same.
fluxAug 20, 2010
ehh this game is turning into duke nukem forever every time they give a release date it gets pushed back 3 months the next week
quit working on the damn trailers and make the game
lazy6pyroAug 20, 2010
Trailers are pretty simple to make and contrary to popular belief doesn't take any devs away from the game. See, being that EA is as big as it is (and Crysis 2 is being published by EA) there are separate marketing/promotional specialists usually working exclusively for the publisher to work on these sorts of things.
You act as if it's a 300 day job to record some footage of already-happening testing and splice a few second clip some compositor tossed together in After Effects in under an hour....
jeexbitAug 20, 2010
Serious question here - have there been any excellent games released lately that are more of the "adventure" genre versus FPS? I have nothing against first person shooters (love 'em in fact) but I'm jonesin' for an immersive adventure type game experience - Alan Wake looks promising, but it's not available on the PC yet...any others?
elamoAug 20, 2010
Assassins Creed II, Dragon Age (kinda adventure), Mass Effect 2, Batman Arkham Asylum
jeexbitAug 20, 2010
Right on, thanks!
s4g4nAug 20, 2010
Crysis Wars multiplayer was never good, this looks the same... I will be pirating Crysis 2 for single player and then deleting it after I'm done.
disexAug 20, 2010
I never really understood the popularity of Crysis. I bought it expecting to be blown away but I was suprised that it was somewhat of a mediocre shooter with TERRIBLE optimization.
Essentially the opposite of what John Carmak does.

Can Crysis 2 run Crysis 1?
happycatAug 20, 2010
Another multiplayer game that plays like every other multiplayer game since Quake. I can hardly wait...zzzzzzz
lennybirdAug 20, 2010
Meh. I just want Episode 3...
wilmarkAug 21, 2010
Looks worse than Crysis - maybe this is just for the consoles. I think serious crysis fans will be seriously disappointed. F%$#@ by childish consoles.
wh213206Aug 21, 2010
OH LOOK, IM A PC GAMER THAT IS GOING TO COMPLAIN BECAUSE THIS GAME IS GOING TO BE AVAILABLE ON CONSOLES!!!!
Shut up, Im sick of it.
