Crysis DX10 screens

WOW
Holy deuces guys, that video was amazing. Everything is so interactive. Looks like boat loads of fun.

:( too bad you need an absolute super computer I'm guessing
 
It's not convincing enough to get me to drop $650 on a DX10 video card (well I don't think anything will, I'm not spending that much money on a computer part)

Your buying a DX10 card for more than 1 game... :)

The video is really, really worth watching, screenshots give this game little to be amazed about.
 
i am impressed

While the graphics are great, its the destructability that has me interested the most. Its been a long time since red faction carried the torch of innovation and had us blowing up our levels, and now it seems Crysis is beginning to rekindle that torch with its dynamically destroyable foliage and bustable houses.

I played through the farcry and had some fun aside from the horrible checkpoint system, the rocket launcher mutants, non realistic "realistic mode," shitty MP, and the shitty dialogue. I'm looking forward to a big improvement with crysis.
 
Although to play it on DX10, the game will cost £1000+. :p
 
But the hit won't be £1000 + on the spot if you upgrade in bits and bobs upto the planned release in April.
 
Seriously, all i see is whines whines whines!. If a game is lacking in state of the art technology, you moan. If a game has got state of the art technology, you moan because of the price to upgrade.

If you've nothing better to say than "looks crap" or "god i ain't paying £xxx to play a game" then don't say anything at all. This game is a step in the right direction, it is moving with the times. Just a shame most people can't see when times move.

Edit/ Oh, and the whole "farcry sucked" malarky is growing quite old. There was nothing wrong with FarCry except maybe it's story was a bit of the same old, but so was HL2's and no one complains about that.

I think it looks great, I will be getting it, and I will upgrade to run it on max :D
 
I wonder what kind of comp you'll need to run it max AA, AF, with all shaders on such as motionblur, dof and more, on minimum of 1600x1200, I'm guessing not even a 8800GTX will do tbh, I myself am pondering if I should wait for a second-gen DX10 card before upgrading.

QFT!!!! I could'nt have said it better myself, my god there are alot of whiners on here! FarCry was a great game infact i enjoyed it more than HL2. Im sure Crysis will be just as good and even better!

Horses for courses i guess. I love the graphics, but the game doesnt appeal to me cause i didn't like FarCry, and this just looks like more of the same. Also i'm not keen on having to spend a ridiculous amount of money just to see this one game performing at its best. And apparently i'm not the only one on here that thinks so.

Theoretically i could spend the same amount of money on a PS3 and a good HDTV, and i would come out with a machine and a TV that would serve my gaming needs well enough for at least 3 years, where as with upgrading my PC, if i want to be able to continously get the best graphics out of every game, then i have to upgrade at least once every six months.

Its a budgetary and priority thing.
A) I don't have the money to upgrade for the game
B) Not that interested in the game as it is
C) Even if i was interested, and had enough money, I'd still be looking at spending a few grand. And a few grand that could better be spent on something like a car for example.

Crysis just ain't that high on my priority list right now, and i don't think it will ever be that high for me.

All you are doing is throwing opinions around as though they are facts. They aren't. Just because you thought there was nothing wrong with Far Cry does not mean other people thought the same. Here's the thing (get ready): they didn't. I for one had several problems with Far Cry. Mainly gameplay and how horribly amateur the game was. And what’s more, the story was absolute shite. It wasn't just 'the same old', no, it was atrocious and the writer should be castrated.

Would you like to know why? Because it wasn't the same old. For a videogame story it is quite magnificent, and games have alot of headway to make before they catch up with it. The style of storytelling can be daunting for the average gamer, but in terms of plot, characters and dialogue there is nothing like it.

I'm not bothered about 'state of the art' technology, or the price of upgrade. I'm not all for graphics and I'm most certainly not against it. Crysis is not moving in the right direction, it is moving in a 'graphics' direction. In terms of gameplay and storytelling (the former in particular) I can see Crysis going nowhere.

Please don't bunny hop into the thread blind folded on throw crap around because you've seen some negative comments. Sure, contest them, but don't immediately assume everything you say is fact.

I won't be upgrading my computer for Crysis and I won't be buying it.
 
I loved Far Cry (and I have promise for Crysis) but those two screenshots look like shit. The only thing I can laud is the lighting in the top screenie.

Thats the one thing I think most people will disagree with, at the time where very wide open areas were used in an essentially linear fps, it was executed very professionally.

Also farcry's shortcomings are no real reason to believe Crysis will fall short with it's mix of visual and interactivity advancements, infact I'd rather give crytek the benifit of the doubt as graphical advancements are not unhinged from gameplay and story telling, giving you the ability to create a more convincing, believable world and story.

So I think the difference really is I personally see the tech as a tool, and a powerful tool of fantastic potential for creating more immersive stories and experiances, not something that is just solely moving in a 'graphics' direction. Crysis in my opinion is pioneering the open ended cinematic fps.
 
Then you obviously havn't read what Cevat has been saying about the singleplayer for the last 3 months, but more so I was refering to the vasteness of the environments.

That sounds like a statement from someone whose actually played the game. not someone whose just watched videos of it on the net.
 
The character models look ugly imo... I don't know if the old character model screens released were renders or something, but they looked way better.

I'm in the same line as Flyingdebris. I hope they bring the level of destruction to the max. Imagine playing this on lan: Someone is shooting in the jungle with a minigun in a CTF-mode and you have the flag. Trees crushing down before you and leaves bouncing of when hit by bullets and the sound of gunfire and sound bullets flying next to your head :D
 
They're not gonna give every random soldier that you're gonna waste a subsurface scattering shader, I think that's limited to main characters. But it's certainly possible for the engine.

As for Crysis itself, it has the potential to be the best thing ever. But so did Far Cry. For some reason, Crytek deviates from the potential posed by an engine that could do Splinter Cell/Metal Gear Solid/STALKER in the massive environment it features, and picks for your ordinary dime a dozen shooter which for whatever reason, ALWAYS needs to have silly aliens in it.

Imagine just how cool a Crysis would be where you're dropped at an island in a rubber boat, with just a simple objective and other than that, complete freedom in how you'll complete the objective. I'd love to see a survival shooter on the Crysis engine.
 
Although it doesn't look all that impressive, I still feel that the DX10 cards have enormous potential; I would love to see the next full HL utilizing the capabilities of a DX10 calibre graphics processing unit.
 
I don't think either of these pictures are DX10 tbh; that just doesnt look like 16x AA to me. As for the arguement over gameplay vs. graphics, it's all opinion. People are just getting pissy over the "Oh man, this game is going to suck because it doesn't have the best story!!!!" and "This game is the best game evarrr!!!" comments. People need to stop bashing before they play it for themselves, and the people who are totaly convinced that it's the "one game to rule them all" need to stop pushing it on other people.

End of story.
 
Hell, I would buy a new PC for this game alone... then happen to have bought it to play other games that will be released at a later date.
 
Kind of hard to judge a game before you've even played it. so STFU all you nay sayers. admit that this game looks mind blowing.
