Are you looking forward to playing Crytek’s Crysis 3? While the game has yet to receive an official announcement, there have been several hints to indicate that an announcement could be imminent. For starters, Swedish magazine, GameReactor, has teased the cover of its next issue set for the 16th of April with an exclusive announcement. The teaser art has revealed a city-themed backdrop with a Nanosuit pattern, similar to the one worn by your character in the game.

On top of that, Origin might have also leaked the cover of the game in a listing (screenshot available here) that shows three different versions of the game: Limited Edition for the Xbox, Limited Edition for the PC and a digital download for the PC. The cover also revealed the protagonist in the game wielding a bow and arrow, suggesting that such a weapon could be available for use during gameplay.

Earlier job listings and with Crytek’s GM, Nick Button-Brown stating that an “absolutely fantastic” project announcement would be revealed later this month have also pointed to the imminent launch of the highly-anticipated game. Either way we will be keeping our eyes peeled, so remember to check back with us on the 16th of April for the details!

Additional details of Crytek’s upcoming FPS title ‘Crysis 3′ havebeen revealed which suggest that the game would once again take us back in the Urban Jungle of New York offering the best Sandbox FPS experience on market, Launch of the title is said to be around Spring 2013 with official announcement of the game on April 15th.
In Crysis 3, New York city would be devastated by an unknown disaster which would turn the city into a Jungle, This would allow Crytek to offer a more opengaming environment over the linear design which users saw in Crysis 2. The game would also feature a new weapon which looks similar to a mechanical bow, its uncertain though how the new weapon would work.

In addition to this, Crysis 3 wouldbe available in premium edition and hunter edition (No Details known) other than the deluxe edition which we reported earlier here *costs $49.99. The game would launch on the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.

Finally cryengine 3 will show its true potential. It wasn't at its best in crysis 2 and has lots of grounds to cover. I guess developers will optimize the tessellation part as it was overdone and sometimes unnecessary in crysis 2.

This one will use the dx11 api better for sure and if it surpasses battlefield 3 in terms visual fidelity, then it won't be a surprise. :)

Hopefully expecting the gameplay to be better in this one than crysis 2.

Crysis/Crysis Warhead(Alongwith crytek Budapest) PC was developed by Crytek Frankfurt..both run on Cryengine 2.
Crysis PS3/X360 & Crysis 2(PC/X360/PS3) ..was developed by Crytek GmbH..both of these run on Cryengine 3.

Ryse(Kinect) is currently being worked on Crytek GmBH.
Homefront 2(Contracted For THQ)/Timesplitters 4 are being developed by Crytek UK.
So basically these are major Titles undertaken By Crytek.

Crysis 3(TBD) is under Pre-production and from current situation we can speculate its development being passed on to Crytek Frankfurt which will be win win case for PC gamers since Crytek FranKfurt specializes in PC Games and have Crysis //Crysis Warhead to their credit.

Well Warhead ran at decent 35+FPS on my rig with everything maxed whereas Crysis was limited to 30 Fps at same setting and i found Crysis GFX more visually apppealing.
The Cave(Core) Levels were most visually intense environments i have ever seen.Hats off to Crytek.

Crysis and crysis warhead look the same and have same textures everywhere but the latter is better optimised to run on a particular hardware and thus gives slightly better fps than the original. :)

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. – April 16, 2012 – The hunted becomes the hunter! Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA) and award-winning developer Crytek GmbH, today announced Crysis® 3, the premier sandbox shooter experience of 2013. Powered by Crytek’s proprietary CryENGINE®, Crysis 3 advances the state of the art with unparalleled visuals and dynamic shooter gameplay. Players take on the role of ‘Prophet’ as he returns to New York, only to discover that the city has been encased in a Nanodome created by the corrupt Cell Corporation. The New York City Liberty Dome is a veritable urban rainforest teeming with overgrown trees, dense swamplands and raging rivers. Within the Liberty Dome, seven distinct and treacherous environments become known as the Seven Wonders. This dangerous new world demands advanced weapons and tactics. Prophet will utilize a lethal composite bow, an enhanced Nanosuit and devastating alien tech to become the deadliest hunter on the planet.

“Crysis 3 is a thrilling mix of sandbox gameplay, advanced combat and hi-tech human and alien weaponry that shooter fans will love,” said Cevat Yerli, Chief Executive Officer of Crytek. “Leveraging the latest CryENGINE technology, we’re able to deliver seven unique themes that offer stunning and visually loaded gameplay experiences. We cannot wait until people get their hands on the game.”

Set in 2047, Prophet is on a revenge mission after uncovering the truth behind Cell Corporation’s motives for building the quarantined Nanodomes. The citizens were told that the giant citywide structures were resurrected to protect the population and to cleanse these metropolises of the remnants of Ceph forces. In reality, the Nanodomes are CELL’s covert attempt at a land and technology grab in their quest for global domination. With Alien Ceph lurking around every corner and human enemies on the attack, nobody is safe in the path of vengeance. Everyone is a target in Prophet’s quest for retribution.

Crytek also announced that players who are ready to start the hunt can pre-order the Crysis® 3 Hunter Edition* today. The Crysis 3 Hunter Edition gives players the tools to become the ultimate hunter in multiplayer with early access to the new signature bow and its attachments, plus the Hunter Nanosuit module which adds additional power and functionality to the super-suit. Gamers who pre-order now will also have a head start when playing online with a bonus XP boost up to level 5, a unique bow skin and three exclusive dog tags to hunt in style**. The Crysis 3 Hunter Edition is available on Origin.com and other participating retailers for $59.99.

In addition to receiving the Crysis 3 Hunter Edition, select retailers are offering gamers that pre-order Crysis 3 the following early multiplayer unlocks:

Stalker Pack – Includes the base game, all Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: for players who like to stalk their prey from the shadows the Stalker Pack provides early multiplayer access to the deadly semi-auto Jackal shotgun. This powerful, close-range shotgun comes with a unique silencer attachment, custom weapon skin and two exclusive themed in-game dog tags.
Overkill Pack – Includes the base game, all Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: the Overkill Pack features early multiplayer access to the Typhoon assault weapon and skin. Spewing 500 rounds a second, the Typhoon gives players the ability to go guns blazing to take back the Liberty Dome. Also included are two exclusive Overkill themed in-game dog tags.
Predator Pack – Includes the base game, all the Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: the Predator Pack delivers early multiplayer access to the Feline submachine gun and exclusive camo. With an extremely fast rate of fire and a 60 round magazine the Feline is highly effective and deadly, at short range.
Developed by Crytek and powered by the proprietary cutting edge CryENGINE technology, Crysis 3 will be available spring 2013 for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and PC. For more information on Crysis 3, please visit Crysis3 Official Site, and for the latest news visit Crysis | Facebook or follow us on Twitter® at Crytek (@Crysis) on Twitter.

Also heard that this time the original crysis developers are making this.

The screenies look amazing though. That bow is so so innovative and looks futuristic in the same time.
This time cryengine 3 will come out with all bells and whistles probably.

We even have an opportunity to put it to test before crysis 3 launches and i'm not talking about crysis 2 but WARFACE.

Advanced Weaponry

It would take you 4.24 traveling at the speed of light to reach Proxima Centarui, the closest star to Earth. With light traveling 186,000 miles per second, that’s an awful long way to go. What kind of science could push an alien with a bend for galactic domination faster than the speed of light? Imagine the technology, the power… the weapons. If you’re going to go toe to toe with an alien menace you’ll need some serious hardware. While a hurricane minigun might make you the biggest badass on Earth, an alien armada isn’t going to think twice about ripping you apart atom from atom. If you’re going to last long in the field you’re going to need to procure some competitive armament from your enemies. Of course, that’s assuming that you can find something that comes with an instruction manual not in an alien tongue. Lucky for you, your nanosuit will help you do some of the heavy lifting. It might not be a perfect interface, but you should be able to squeeze off enough alien firepower to level the playing field. You’ll have access to more weapons than you’ve ever had and it’s a good thing, too; You’ll need them.

Adaptive Warfare

As one of the most experienced and elite soldiers to have never “officially” existed you know what it takes to survive. It’s just you, the most advanced piece of military hardware humanity has ever devised, and your training against an entire city of enemies and hostile terrain. And only one rule: You adapt or you die. New York has become an untamed landscape. The tactics that you may have used to move from building to building won’t help you when half of uptown has been replaced by a swamp. You’ll have to assess your situation, adapt your strategies and equipment to suit, and attack using every advantage you’ve got. A wall of incoming enemy fire, an immovable two-ton obstacle in your path, a quarter mile of exposed terrain you need to cover in 15 seconds, or an entrenched enemy position to be infiltrated; Your suit will give you the tools you need to survive these situations, but only your experience will help you know which to choose. Between your training and your nanosuit you’ve got better-than-average odds of surviving, but that’s not saying much when the average odds are zero to none. At the end of the day your suit is just a tool – Using it correctly means the difference between being the predator or the prey.

Become the Hunter

There was a time that you had compatriots. You had team mates who you trusted with your life. It wasn’t so long ago that you were fighting for your country and the human race. Now you fight for the fallen. Now you get your revenge. In the wake of the alien invasion, New York lies covered by a giant nanodome, hidden from the rest of the world A secretive military faction has set up shop in the ruins of the city. What do they want? Who are they? What have they found? Uncover their true motives and bring them down from the inside out. But as bad as they might be, they might be the least of your worries. The extraterrestrial threat still looms large over New York. The last time humanity tangled with this enemy they caught us with our guard down, but this time we’re ready. Stalk the canyons of the abandoned, ruined city in relentless pursuit of your prey. This time we hunt them.

Seven Wonders

New York City lies in ruin. Skyscrapers once thought to be timeless monuments crumble and give way to vines. Clamoring streets that filled with rush-hour traffic now host the banks of a river. An underground system designed to support millions has rotted into caverns as deep and dark as anywhere on Earth. A nanodome looms overhead, keeping the eye of the outside world out and an untold danger in. This is where you strike. Nature has reclaimed what was once the world’s most iconic city and you’ll have to adapt if you want to survive. Stalk your prey through a shadowy 5th avenue rainforest or wade waist-high through an urban swamp. Cover ground quickly over the midtown grasslands or seek cover in a deep, etched Wall Street canyon. You’ll need to plan for any situation in the wreckage of the city. With the dome overhead and alien technology on the loose there’s no telling what challenges you’ll face. So, you better be ready to use every situation and environment to your advantage, because you won’t get a second chance. It’s a jungle out there.

Power of the CryENGINE

For almost a decade the CryENGINE has stood as the industry example of constantly improving, cutting-edge game development software. From unbelievably real environments and beautiful lighting to dynamic physics and razer-sharp AI, CryENGINE is the foremost engine for open world and sandbox gameplay. With Crysis and Crysis 2, Crytek proved that, in the hands of its creators, this engine can be pushed to almost limitless possibilities. With Crysis 3, they’re taking it to the next level. Whether you’re marveling at the stop-and-stare graphics, getting lost in the thick of immersive environments, experimenting with industry-leading physics, or making sanbox choices as you stalk your enemies, the CryENGINE will be taking your expectations for gaming to the next level.

Hope this sums everything that's in store. :)

The Prophet returns to a terra-formed New York to take down Cell Corporation's evil plans of domination in Crytek's Crysis 3.

The game is set in a 2047 New York that has been encased in Cell Corporation's Liberty Dome. The cover story is that the quarantine dome exists to protect citizens from the Ceph and other dangers, but the truth is that it's all a part of Cell's attempt at world domination.

The Liberty Dome houses seven distinct locations known as the Seven Wonders. Players will have a new Nanosuit, a deadly composite bow, and alien technology at their disposal as they take on the various environments and whatever enemies get in their path (check out the screens in the gallery below).

Crysis 3 comes out for PC (box shown below), PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 in the spring of 2013.

If you pre-order the game now, you can get the Hunter Edition for no extra charge. You'll get early access to Prophet's composite bow and its attachements in multiplayer, the powerful Hunter Nanosuit module, plus the following online perks: An XP boost up to level 5, a unique bow skin, and three exclusive dog tags.

You can also get the following retail multiplayer pre-order bonuses (participating retailers not specified. Descriptions direct from EA):



Stalker Pack – Includes the base game, all Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: For players who like to stalk their prey from the shadows, the Stalker Pack provides early multiplayer access to the deadly semi-auto Jackal shotgun. This powerful, close-range shotgun comes with a unique silencer attachment, custom weapon skin, and two exclusive themed in-game dog tags.
Overkill Pack – Includes the base game, all Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: The Overkill Pack features early multiplayer access to the Typhoon assault weapon and skin. Spewing 500 rounds a second, the Typhoon gives players the ability to go guns blazing to take back the Liberty Dome. Also included are two exclusive Overkill themed in-game dog tags.
Predator Pack – Includes the base game, all the Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: The Predator Pack delivers early multiplayer access to the Feline submachine gun and exclusive camo. With an extremely fast rate of fire and a 60-round magazine, the Feline is highly effective and deadly at short range.

MP was fun. Hell lotsa better than CoD. Yeah it was a CoD-clone. Best thing was to air stomp people. One of the best moves ever created in a game. I had pings of about 150-200 in German and UK servers.

Even though I hate Crytek for making C2 a multi-plat game and toning down the graphics... their SDK makes up for all these. With mods, it's even better than Crysis. And... modders are making Warhead w/ this engine. Can't wait for that.

New Crysis 3 details have been leaked from a gaming magazine Playbox which suggest that Crysis 3 wont be the last installment in the Sci-Fi FPS franchise. Other than this Crysis 3would feature all new side missions, new nano suit powers, New factions and the return of an old buddy – Physco (CRYSIS Warhead’s protagonist).
According to the magazine, Steven Hall would be writing the game. Story would revolve around Prophet (Alcatraz) imprisoned by CryNet which would also mark the time intervalbetween Crysis 2 to 3. After the ending of the second part a Global invasion by Ceph took place and it would be shown in the game what happened to the rest of the world after the invasion.
Now the most interesting part, Crysis Warhead’s Protagonist aka Physco who also accompanied usat the begging parts of Crysis 1 isalso back in the game, Uncertain though if he would be a playable character. Crynet and Ceph wouldnot be the only hostile factions, There would be others though they are not detailed yet. Newer Ceph enemies would include a brute with a flamethrower. The setting would also feature animals like the original Crysis such as giant frogs.
The word would be less destructive compared to Crysis 1 and would feature a sandbox setting along with several side missions. A few concept arts show the outside the New York dome would be a frozen wasteland like in Crysis 1 after the alien invade the island. New powers would allow us to hack alien turrets and control their weapons which was also confirmed in a interview with a Crytek official. Speed and Power abilities are now split like Crysis 1.
The game launches in Spring 2013 for PC, PS3 and 360.

^^ Crytek has a history of making games that run on lower rigs and at the same time look totally awesome on good rigs :) So I'm guessing this one has pretty low requirements but the recommended ones are very steep :D

I believe I had Athlon64 X2 6400+ with HD3870 back then :) (Or Phenom X4 9650 with HD4850, not quite sure :D) But yes, I ran Crysis with maxed settings and even tinkered a bit with the config files to make it look even better :D

But i guess that crysis 3 wud be another gr8 experience to game on........:)

Yeah, me too. Well, I have that "Nomad!" enthusiasm but that's just for the suit. It feels like Crysis 2.5, same shizzy SCAR, same stealth kill animations.... damn, Crytek.

The obvious advantage of bows will be multiple kills, if implement successfully. And that would be awesome.

Also we need something like HV Penetrator from F.E.A.R. That's the best gun out there when you hook up an enemy to a wall.

What's the point then? Better to have a gun. But I really doubt whether the bow will be used extensively throughout the game.
Headshots will be one shot kill for sure.

this is what will help. you can't kill an alien with a headshot. forget silent kill.

And a man who kicks cars out of street will take a shot, a good alignment will make a joint for 2-3 enemies in a row:lol:

alien barbecue.

should run better or same like Crysis2. Both uses CryEngine 3. This one most likely will have CryEngine 3.5 (improved) as its the latest stable version available. But as this one will have city + jungle environment so 3.5 may be just a mix of CryEngine 2 & 3. Still i expect it to perform same as Crysis2.

Because it was not worthy of being called as a 'Crysis' sequel. From open world game to closed limited shooter. If they would have called it anything other than that, people would not have had this much problem. Also the graphics at release were meh.

When the first Crysis was released in 2007, it set a new benchmark for graphics and impressed fans with its fluid mixture of stealth and first-person shooter gameplay.
The game placed you into the Nano-suit of an American super-soldier named Nomad, sent to investigate an island swarming with North Korean soldiers and hostile alien creatures.
Crysis 2 was released last March and picked up the story several years later, with the alien invasion moving to New York.

Players were also pitted against the greedy Cell Corporation - a greedy military contractor intent on world domination.
But the game was criticised for being too slow and trading the popular jungle environment in the first game for an urban landscape.
Now Crytek - the game's creator - has announced a third instalment in the series which they say has been crafted from the successes and failures of the past two games.
"We learned very different things from Crysis 1 and 2, and we're now taking those learnings and combining them into this project," Crytek's senior creative director Rasmus Hojengaard told News.com.au.
"One thing we want to do is get the game going a little quicker. We want you to be in the midst of a conflict very quickly.
"Combining great storytelling and characters with amazing visuals is the footing that we've found with Crysis 3 - we've made this a much better game. It's richer on every level."
The new game takes place twenty years after the last, in a future New York that has literally been transformed into a rainforest by a huge Nano-dome. Essentially, it's a hybrid of the environments of the first two games.
The demo I saw put the player into the shoes of Prophet - one of the series' recurring characters - as he stalked through the urban jungle in the Nano-suit.

He was able take out aliens with an advanced super-bow while communicating with Psycho - a British super-soldier last seen in the first game.
Mr Hojengaard said both Prophet and Psycho have been changed in the years since we last saw them.
"Time has affected Prophet and Psycho, but in different ways,” he said.
"The thing about the Nano-suit is that once you're in it, you're not a regular human anymore. It's a little bit like being on some very advanced drug. This thing affects your body until you take it off.
"Obviously there'll be consequences if you're in this thing for fifty years and suddenly you take it off. Things will start happening to you and that's a concept we're playing around with."
He also said that the gameplay will also be a mixture of the last two instalments.
"We want to have sections that are linear like Crysis 2, but we also want to have open sections that are more sandbox. Each gameplay provides different rewards for the player.
"It's much easier to make something epic and grand if you have a linear section, but it's much easier to feel like you're smart and taking control of things if you have a lot of choice.
“So we're using the right type of gameplay at the right moment. We're not sticking to one or the other, we're trying to do what's best for that point in the game."
And what about Nomad - the main character of the first game who was mysteriously absent throughout Crysis 2?
"He won't be returning as a character, but you'll be seeing some part of him. I'll let you figure out what the means."

7 minutes of Crysis 3 First Take:-

Crysis 3 Video Game, First Take HD | Video Clip | Game Trailers & Videos | GameTrailers.com


User reactions remain mostly negative, some samples:-

7 minutes? You should shorten this is video to few second: Guys, this is Crysis 2, but with a little bit different maps and number 3 after Crysis.


TBH PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 is holding back the evolution atm. There is no reason to make new engines and new technology (better graphics) when consoles like the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360 can't cope with it anyway. New games like this are tailormade for the old consoles and then ported to PC. Epic fail. It should be the other way around.
Sorry if I don't get my hopes up for this game but I don't think there will be anything new under the sun...


go **** yourself crytek fanboy,i have all games from crytek specially the awesome farcry,you call me a hater because you have youre fanboy goggles on and cant see flaws.And yes i can tell from a 20secs video including all the other factors,the game is another crysis2 or better crysis2.5,and i dont give a **** about metacritic,i play games for more than 20years,you were probably on youre father testicules when i started playing games,and its called experience.And yes its gonna suck,like any other games out there i told it was going to suck. And if a sequel is suppose to look so much like the prequel how the **** did crysis2 ended up so different from the prequel? take youre head out of youre ass


And the best:-

Has billion dollar equipment, uses stone age weaponry

Not a good time to make guesses.

Crysis 1 Run on Consoles too but is enough to KILL(make it crawl) a GTX560ti at 1080p.

Seriously ? I ran Crysis (High/ultra mix) on my GTX 260 (although 1680x1050), what makes you think a 560 is not capable ? And This is Crysis we are talking about, not the bast3rd child Crysis 2.

Btw do you know you can even max it at 1080p.Just be sure to keep the aa low though.

Another thing pls dont call the consoles ancient.They are not.

Off topic:
FYI, Console games are developed in PCs. So, IMHO, as long as consoles exist, PCs will exist too and so will PC gaming. Moreover, console games are limited by hardware which you cannot upgrade on the fly.

On topic:
Looking at the short span of time between C2 and C3, it looks like this was decided in a hurry or had been planned before C2 entered development. If it was decided in a hurry, we can expect ****.

IMHO, there should always be at least 2 years gap between sequels.

Companies are not trying to create memorable franchises, they have to release one Assasins/COD/Crysis/Gears/God of War/Halo every year to keep the investors happy and the cash flowing. How is this hurting their brand, they know, but this is the way industry works.

Crysis 3 Mixes Robot Tech with Rambo Action



If there’s one thing that the Crysis series has always done right, its graphics. The Crytek engine seems to have some sort of magical capability to compress data to its finest point and deliver breathtaking visuals. Crysis 3 will not change any of that. The urban jungle sprawl with its flooded alleys that will make up some of the terrain that you’ll see in the installment looks brilliant! It’s the fairest of them all.
*www.egmnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Crysis-3-E3-2012-Dambusters-Bow-Attack.jpg

Beyond Nanodome

The aforementioned flooded urban sprawl will be contained within several man-made domes that you’ll traverse throughout the game. This gives Crytek a chance to really experiment with various creative combinations of landscapes. New York is a city that’s been redesigned and decimated in so many games already. Hopefully Crytek will remember that there are more cities in the world that could use a makeover. We’re going to have to wait a little while longer to find out what they actually have in store level-wise for us though.


Free Roaming With a Net

Crysis allowed you to roam a decent sized island and explore, at your will, wherever you wanted to. When Crysis 2 arrived it was a much more linear experience that soured the sequel to hardcore fans. Now they’re saying that 3 will be a blending of the two styles. How the hell do you mix liner with non-linear and expect to get a solid game? From what I’ve seen it actually feels more like a “casual linear” experience. Instead of being able to run around a whole level, you’re given something more akin to a limited battlefield. Just because you’re not running through hallways the whole time to get to a destination doesn’t mean the point A to point B mindset of a linear game isn’t there.

*www.egmnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Crysis-3-E3-2012-Dambusters-Canyon-vista.jpg

Yo Dawg, I Heard You Like Upgrades

What would a Crysis game be without the nanosuit? Once again, you’ll be able to customize your robotic second skin in order to cater to your playing style. If you’re more stealthy, noise canceling or misdirection might be where you put your skills. If you’re anything like me though, you may want to pimp out your health and armor. Crytek says they’ll be introducing new suit upgrades, but everything we’ve seen so far looks very similar to what we saw in Crysis 2. Hopefully, we’ll be hearing more about some of these new skills and how we’ll be using them soon enough.

How Very Ramboesque

You’d think someone with a robot suit wouldn’t need to resort to using primitive weapons like a bow and arrow. But this isn’t just a couple of sticks and some string. Unlike every other loud, attention drawing gun in the game, the fancy new high-tech compound bow allows you to stay in stealth mode, even when firing, Personally, I never had any problems taking out enemies in stealth mode without one before and I don’t really get why that in a game with tons of high-tech gear and alien weaponry that a bow was the most creative thing they could think of to spice up combat.

Beyond the graphics, what are you looking most forward to in Crysis 3? Do you think the new compound bow will be fun to hunt with, or is it just another excuse to fire off movie quotes in a Sylvester Stallone voice? Tell us what you think in the comments!.

Regards,
Yash

Crytek should stop hyping their game and get the AI working and ship the damn game without glitches...so much for the 'best AI in the world' statement.

Just saw the Rain forest gameplay demo on gamespot, the levels looks much bigger thankfully, very pleasant to watch just like Crysis1's levels :D
And I was just wondering, if Crysis 3 had the max payne's bullet time...imagine jumping off rock, trigger bullet time, kill all the enemies with the composite bow in slow motion....BADASS!!!!!!! :twisted:

Got hands on crysis 3. It is a graphical beast!
my 6850 gave 8-11fps at 1080@very high. had to tone down settings to medium at 1680X900 to get 30-45 fps.

Btw,this is not the final game. Crytek recently gave away few keys for a closed multiplayer alpha version of the game. i was lucky to get a key,download the game on origin and play.

Screenshots coming up. Oh and btw unlimited running ftw |m|

Crysis 1:- is the best game in series where Crytek focuses on story than graphics and other bla,bla,bla.
Crysis 2:- is not that bad in terms of game-play but it lacks story elements,its kinda like spin-off to Crysis 1 and not its squeal and there are no more open world :(
Crysis 3:- Hope its story is strong and game-play too

Isn't this obvious when they are with EA. Bioware also said earlier than ME3 would be the end of the series but they are making another, now Crysis. They just don't want to work on new projects at all, just the sequels and prequels. Now we are having lack of new game series but thankfully there are some developers who take it seriously and make new games for gamers. If any developer is with EA then first game could be awesome and then the game goes in yearly mill and DLC crap and then looses its charm.

Crysis 3 alpha MP is a real resource hog. It uses around 1.9GB of VRAM in max details @1080p with motion blur set to medium. Although this is the maximum amount of VRAM usage, not the average. It uses two CPU cores to full 100% and the other two cores hovers around near 33% on my i5 2500. I played the game for nearly 15 hours between 4 and 9 th of this month and was really satisfied with the gameplay. Sprinting no longer drains energy, guns are awesome and the bow is a real bad ass. However the bow was made available only on the last day i.e on 9th. There is virtually no difference between high and very high although the performance would take a huge hit. I could get around 40-50 Fps average on very high with my OCed 7970. The minimum frame rate I've noticed is 33 fps using fraps.

If any developer is with EA then first game could be awesome and then the game goes in yearly mill and DLC crap and then looses its charm.

EA is just a publishing partner, they don't have any kind of power over dictating Crytek, if they did, there would have been no New York setting for Crysis 2. Its similar to the relationship between Valve and EA. You know what, EA was initially against the New York setting for Crysis 2, thought it would be risky, but Crytek didn't give a crap and went ahead with it, dudes have got guts ;)

IMO, I would give crytek a chance, they did make some mistakes with Crysis 2(bugs, ignoring the pc fanbase, cloning CoD's multiplayer) but at least they had the balls to go against the jungle setting that worked so well in the previous games, if EA had any say in that, they would have easily forced Crytek to set the sequel in the jungle. Coming to Crysis 3, they are definitely working on not offering the same $hit again, compare them to any other developer who makes yearly releases, at least Crytek is aiming for some variety, the varied environments concept in Crysis 3 definitely looks interesting.

Heard Crytek were going solo after Crysis 3. They said, they'll only make true F2P games. They said, they would break away from EA.

Maybe the game engine is heavily modified for pc to strictly use dx11 api and ignore dx 9 . We can call this a dx11 title from groundup.
Remember ps3 is always an exception because it does not use any form of directx but open-gl based custom api's.

If a directx game can be modified and ported into an open-gl based framework, ignoring dx9 completely for pc doesn't surprise that much.

Holy cow! Jaw dropping graphics especially with adaptive tessellation, particle shadowing and character tessellation.

Things are getting better (at least too some extent):-

Crysis 3 graphics settings revealed, high-resolution textures confirmed at at launch


*i.imgur.com/ArcFL.jpg?1

Crysis 3 will already ship with hi-res textures, advanced graphics settings, tessellation and DX11 support. Additional tech areas that have been enhanced since Crysis 2 are: AI navigation system, animation system, water, fog volumes, cloud shadows, POM, AA, cloths, vegetation, particles, lens flares and grass.

For Crysis 3, the past year has involved a lot of performance and memory optimization work on many areas and for all platforms, as well as work on the rendering side. One of our big goals was to improve image quality, and a lot of work went into developing several DX11 based anti-aliasing techniques for PC, which means gamers will now be able to pick their favorite—this is relatively involved on a deferred-based engine, since it involves selecting every technique and accessing multi-sampled buffers, versus the usual “flip the switch” approach. On top of an improved tessellation system we’ve also introduced character/vegetation tessellation—and since tessellation performance was still not optimal for the level of detail we wanted to achieve, we also did research into different areas and introduced what we called “Pixel Accurate Displacement Mapping” for macro details with nice real-time self-shadowing.

but then this...

On Crysis 2, a decision was made to focus on console, launching the title on all platforms simultaneously and bringing the same console UI menu experience to PC, but with a plan to release a dedicated DX11 PC version right after launch of the multiplatform version.

So finally they are admitting, C2 was in reality a shitty console port. And UI hasn't changed much in this version too.

Still no FOV slider, may be that's under standard settings. ;)

You assume that maintaining a PC DX9 render is the same as maintaining an XBOX render. You assume incorrectly.

Quote:
Currently there is no reason to buy DX11 GPU because of no good DX11 only games. It will be a waste of money.

You've made your point, you're not going to buy Crysis 3 because you don't have a DX11 GPU/OS, stop spamming the thread with the same thing over and over again please.


Also, no support for XP points to that.

DX 9 has completed a decade this month, even 9.0c is 8 years old, and 10/10.1 are useless. I understand lots of people will be left out, but they have made the right call. Hopefully, this will mean a leaner game which runs well on various dx11 hardware. Crysis does have doubtful record as far as graphical implementation goes, first they artificially prevented DX9 users to use Very High settings in Crysis, and then the tessellation fiasco in Crysis 2, not to mention the original C2 launching without DX11 and just 04 options to tweak graphics. Lets hope this time around they are really serious about giving PC gamers the ultimate graphical extravaganza. They have indicated in their forums that the screenshot of Advanced Settings is a bit old, and quite a few options have already been added. Good going so far I would say.

In brief, Crysis or Crysis Warhead was one of its kind. Just like the Metro 2033.

IMO, its hard to expect a huge change in gameplay when it comes to sequels. Developer might change the storyline, make it look more realistic with good AI, but end of the day people will still complain saying the storyline / background score / graphics bug / Prices is not upto the mark blah blah.

.Crysis & Crysis Warhead was so graphics hungry back then, that's why many latest hardware at that time failed to provide max out graphics.
But Crysis 2 was well optimized of his generation hardware. Graphics was much better with the upgrade of Ultra Graphics Pack & DX11 upgrades ignoring the storyline

Its very much similar to what EA has done with MW & MW reboot. So either we better accept the gameplay how its designed & appreciate the way it is or stop playing. End users choice.

yes putting facepalm means either you couldn't comprehend or the other person is dumb.So it may not be offensive but makes you feel guilty for liking COD.

Btw no matter where they put cod its single player is far better than other army type shooters.Speaking of locations it has been based on many countries infact black ops II is based on two different timelines.I loved black ops II.But i admit black ops 1 was poor.

Correction, C1 was never DX10 only, only the Very High settings were restricted from DX9, which from the very onset looks artificial. And if Crytek really bluffs this time too, God helps them.

Crysis 3 Train Yard gameplay trailer
vickybat
vickybat #508
Dec 25, 2012 at 2:57 PM
^^ I was about to post this trailer but saw your post. You beat me to it. :)

Coming down to this trailer i have no words to describe the amount of effort crytek has put into making this game not only visually stunning
but with some amazing gameplay sequences. The alien enemies in this game look far more realistic than crysis 2. The implementation of physics (in house engine) in this game seems jaw dropping
and the explosions seem life like. Its also got full destructive environments like the original crysis. And the character models are the best in a video game yet.

This game is going to cripple the mightiest video cards even in sli/crossfire for sure. After watching this trailer in 1080p i don't think BF3 even belongs in this league.

More discussion on this after the game releases. :) Darn i don't think my card can run this even in half decent settings.

Didn't we all say the same thing with crysis 2 before its release? look what happened in the end, not that I don't trust Crytek, but I'd prefer testing the game first before putting my money on it ;)

^^ Buddy those were my first impressions after watching that trailer. The alien enemies look more organic this time than crysis 2. Their attacks also seems vicious.
Crytek had given hints about dynamic AI while showcasing its cryengine 3 sdk. I guess the trailer showed a piece of that. The trees are destructible in crysis 3 just like the original.

Check this out btw:

Crytek promises MSAA, SMAA(T2x on consoles), Nvidia TXAA and something new for Crysis 3

I wonder what's new!!!!

duh..that's pretty much a carbon copy of what they said about Crysis 2, the hype was over the top and everybody fell for it. The AI in particular was hyped like it was best in the industry, it was marketed that way, the result...disaster. The aliens from c2 looked different from the ones in crysis1, the design was better, but we all know the end result was :D
I'm not going to open that link, i'd read enough C2 articles of that kind, so i ll keep my hopes down to zero and see what the game offers. I'd suggest you the same, you don't want to end up whining about the game after its release do you? :p

Cryengine 3 was in its nascent state in crysis 2. This game will show what Cryengine 3 is all about.



Though the videos are not of good quality, you'll still have a good idea of what this magnificent engine is capable of.

Do you know that the new tomb raider game uses the same engine that tombraider legend/underworld used.
Compare the new one now with them and you will see some massive changes in quality. The new one feels like its runs a whole new and different engine.

This is what modification and optimization does. Use of new API's and libraries can make a hell of a difference. :)

so if an engine is modified, doesnt it become a new engine?? or what changes need to be done in order to call it a new engine?

And That feature is known as Inheritance in C++, I guess!!

Inheritance is not only present in c++ but every object oriented programming language. :)
Here we are talking about modifying a code achieve same things differently.

For example in every engine, you might see a tree as output but the look, feel , behavior and other aspects of a tree varies greatly from engine to engine.
Adding new api's and methods to existing code also helps in changing the output significantly.

Here , not only the child or subclass is modified but also the parent class and its methods.
So the subclass will have newer methods at its disposal as well as inherit new modified methods from parent class.
Basic polymorphism. :)

This was extremely a layman' s explanation. Game design and coding is still a very huge thing. :)

Every pre-release material is promotion/advertisement/hype only. There's one video in YouTube where an user compare Far Cry 3's E3 demo with the released game, and the demo looked far better, despite being a 2011 stuff. There's no guarantee what the finished material will be.

Might I inquire, did you mean "I feel Far Cry 3 is what Crysis 3 should have been" Crysis2 here? Because if you do so, you are with a bit flawed perception here. Far Cry 3 Crysis 1,2,3 can never be compared in terms of game play and neither should be observed in competitive ways of visual/graphical representation of a game to a gamer. Crysis 1 busted mega blocks in one hit because it was the beginning of "maximum" Theory and we all know now that it had introduced something to us, an engine so powerful and so awe-inspiring to a pair of eyes and to even sophisticated hardware that it triggered a revolution, which in its way we knew, would not wither but would evolve more.

And it did.

Crysis2 never had the story its former has because it had nothing to surprise us then except the raw brilliance of graphics, the unrivaled crytek in its own age. We did not except that much of a never-to-forget game-play story line from crysis2, we anticipated deep in ourselves that it would break some GPU knees and it came all about it. To believe that in Crysis2 aliens would behave so differently to a high-end suit wearer as to play chess with him is complete nonsense. As to a chicken would taste very very little better even it has a B.Tech Degree! There were little scope of story and we know that and admit it. FarCry started with Cry and was seriously a game-play oriented game on its first title, broke some records and then...then...brought an epic FAIL Far Cry2 to us! Islands,Sun rise and set, vegetation and foliage has been seen in many other games and in better way, Farcry was no ground-breaker but it had definitely survival elements, so it had to put realism in gameplay a sector in which it could only improve, it succeeded in FarCry3 because it has put points and consolidated some RPG elementary subsections. Though i still believe it has been inspired by JUST CAUSE 2 a bit :). Crysis 3 as long its not a soccer game or angry birds will stab some hearts and will pamper some greatness again and the ladder is from Crytek only to go up.

Try to understand where most of us are coming from. The vanilla ladder has been: Far Cry --> Crysis --> Warhead --> Crysis 2 ---> Crysis 3. Now over the years, this chain has diverged into Far Cry being a separate series, and Crytek controlling Crysis, and creating a new franchisee from it. If you have played Far Cry, that till date is one of most difficult games in terms of AI; I am sure ton of dudes played it here using cheat mode (but will not confess); or notched down the difficulty. ;). Dial up to Cry 2, and see what the AI is. Games evolve and it takes a while for generations to accept as new versions come out. I personally feel the Crysis franchisee has evolved to a bad-a$$ expanded universe, which has immense scope for graduation -and- that is exactly what the developers and story boarding is doing. It has quite moved to dystopian / futuristic world, with one savior "crisis"; literally. It has now become probably the best series (at least the Part III trailers make it look so) for guns, guns, and more guns. The variation is immense, and the modification scheme is a work-of-art in itself. The Crysis series (2&3) are immersive, but for different series, than what something like: Halo series; or Killzone III or Fallout or Metro 2033 offered. They had a solid penchant for story and actual script. Crysis is now a orthodox hi-tech shooter. Is this bad..heck no.....! A lot of players want this, but many are looking for deep ingrained scripts and character development; which is highly possible in games. Give the other games a try.

And please start over this with me, I have already given and done enough discussion over this. You want answers, look up C2 thread and browse through many many pages and you'll get the idea.

Oh, now I know.
Vanilla version or whatever it's called it was good, but that HD and DX11 thing which made C2 a super one, in term of graphics I mean. I don't think if there was no external modifications the game would've reached the level what it have.
But be it Vanilla or not, the optimisation was just great.

The point is, what game looked better than Crysis 2 on DX9? I cannot think of any.

Thats the point when C1 was Dx10 then why did they made C2 on Dx9. I mean its downgrading which is certainly not good. And do we even have to do this all over again, I think that we are finished over C2, NO. :)

I don't remember any of it, but yeah, downgrading was bad, i don't mean to say otherwise. But Crysis 2 was a damn good looking DX9 title to this day.

Did you know assassin's creed 1 supported direct x 10 but the devs just never put in that extra effort to include directx10 in AC2, ACB and ACR

Damn....Alright lets just say that a game X is released which is a milestone for graphics in PC and have made a hell lot of fans and then X2 is released after 4 years, now what would you expect from X2, should it be better than X in every aspect be it graphically, gameplay or anything or not specially when developers said in their Interviews that X2 is going to be epic graphically and all for PC. Now comes the release of X2, its good on consoles considering their power but for PC its more of a Shitty game as compared to X with downgraded graphics, AI, a lot of bugs and what not. Then developers releases all the necessaries after 6 months. And mind you that most gamers would have already played and completed X2 by then apart from gamers like me who prefer to play the game when its development cycle is completed. Now what would you call X2 a very good game or a very bad game. In this case X is Crysis and X2 is Crysis 2. I hope you got my point and won't start it again. :)

Where did you get that from? The devs only left out dx10 because they didn't see any kind of improvement in the game due to that. Moreover, AC2 on dx9 looked a lot more beautiful than AC1 did on dx10.

An obvious smart move from Crytek which kinda backfired. On the brighter side, there's no single game that was set in New York and made it look as beautiful as it did in Crysis 2. Sure there were a lot of shameful downsides, but the scale, feel and environment of New York was captured perfectly. From an artistic standpoint, I'd rather go for a varied environment of Crysis 2, than a bland forest in Crysis 1, even though I admit I enjoyed the latter more :D

Played for an hour, here are some thoughts..

Ping is fine, the least I got was around 100.
Environments are more varied this time around, with a lot of attentions to the details. The Water effects were quite cool than they appear in the trailers.
Framerate stayed around 30, not more than that. Not really sure about the optimization, but for me, only the low settings(which looked quite great) worked well/playable, the rest of them are terrible(seriously? Battlefield 3 did better :( ).
The game felt like the Warhead of Crysis 2, more like an expansion.
The Hunter mode is best addition, its epic! You can play as the Hunter or the humans(hunted!), if you die as a human you would respawn as a hunter. The hunters have infinte stealth, and some appropriate perks for the humans which are cool.
The over all game is more polished compared to C2, the hit detection seems to work fine now and the Killcam is fixed well.

the game is good. each session contains 5 rounds u'll spawn either hunter or cell

cell: each round is 2 min u can easily survive in the round or u can take hunter down. u can hear hunter foot steps whenever they are near, so no problem of taking them.if u die within a round u'll spawn as hunter
Hunter: xbow is really awesome, its a one hit kill. the enemies locations are spotted on the man,to take them easily.
Graphics: played at very high settings on full hd , turned off AA. i got 32-38 frames. amd should release driver for crysis 3, so we can use AA.
here are some screens.

Installing the latest beta driver and overclocking my gpu will max fps to stay above 30 which is very playable . The game is definitely have best graphics till date .

Jan 30, 2013 at 7:06 PM
depth of field is again diff than Draw distance.

DoF comes into play during live cutscenes when you are talking to another character. it blurs out the background so that the subject is more prominent and your eye is drawn to the subject. or during viewing through the scopes on a weapon. only the centre of the crosshair is in focus.

DoF is hardware intensive and is thus used only in special circumstances

I agree that its about your comfort choice but then again that doesn't change the fact. I mean if someone is damn good in a racing or hack-n-slash game with KB+Mice doesn't mean that they are meant to be played that way. I don't have any problem with anyone's choice or anything. I respect other's choice. I just commented because I found it kinda weird, anyways won't tease him again. :)

anyway its obvious Crysis is not the best FPS ever.

Its not, but it definitely has a chance this time, may be in the next gen when 60fps is possible for the FPS games. Crysis 2's multiplayer nanosuit features which felt like future design and 90s functionality, the energy meters' all kinda fcked up. But Crysis 3, after playing the open beta, I strongly feel that the game has a lot of potential to appeal the mass audience. The suit options are not any kinda annoyance this time letting the player focus on the match than worrying on the suit limitations, trust me I'd played a lot of crysis 2 multiplayer and the suit limitations are extremely annoying. Now with C3, Nano suits have never been this fun, I actually enjoyed playing the game this time ;)

Also, I kinda feel that fps game developers should focus on making the visuals that are soothing to the eyes rather than forced eye candy just because its popular with some part of the crowd. Take crysis as the example, on the very high settings, the visuals feel so cluttered with props, effects, physics, and so on. Then take a look at game like cod, or counter strike, less things to worry about on the visual side, and more focus on the actual game-play. Its like the environments are static but look convincing enough to give the immersion and not distracting the player. This was one of the reasons I personally enjoyed Crysis 3 beta, I was able to play on the medium-high settings with a bit of customization, but on the Low settings., the game runs at 60fps(can't stress on this enough, this gen console gamers lost so much fun) and less eye candy, making it easy for the game-play.

i asked on the mycrysis forum and it seems u need to do a suit reboot after you hit level 10 from the main menu, you will get the bow and some hammer pistol after a first reboot and you will be back to level 1 and after this hitting level 5 you can customize a class and add a bow to it and feline is unlocked after level 7 and typhoon after a second reboot

Do you really mean kbps, that's kilo bits per sec, so 100/8=25KBps, not enough, a 512kbps conn i.e 64KBps is needed, and pings to any server needs to be less than 300ms, and absolutely not beyond 400ms.

Even a corporate guy at my client office, asked me dangerously tricky "did you come tomorrow?" ... i mean WTF! i thought it was a time-space joke by Robert Penrose, later found it was just bad english. Anyway, here i'm getting like 20MBPS Fast Media Wifi Gateway, so i'm not thinking anything but playing DOTA2 in SEA servers daily and with ping 37-83 ms ...hell yeah :D:D But as everyone might have known by now, steam is unnecessarily releasing patches everyday for BETA which are creating more bugs than solving and there are annoying lag spikes (2026ms) for that too which makes the game unplayable. So i'm looking forward to have a clean build of crysis3 for online play.

P.S. I need to have a solid gaming machine as well to enjoy crysis3 :p

we had done the same.. actually the CSE guys had got a way to bypass the securities. we have a 100MBps connection on campus. an we used play/dl to our will at the college comps.

but then one of our seniors passouts came back as a prof in the CS dept and patched our ass right out of the college routers. afterall he too used the exploit during his college time and knew the loopholes.. now we can do gaming/torrenting only in hostel. :\

Nope :|

On the + side even a 7770 should be able to play this at low, or a 7850/660 at medium high, 7870 at high, and a 7950/660Ti will be able to max it out @ 1080P, for constant 60+ FPS a 7970/680 would be good.

Besides If HD 7770 can only play C3 at low.. how the hell will PS3/Xbox 360 C3 look like ?
As of the beta gameplay, HD7770 can do really well

optimised. PS3/XBox is unchanged h/w from the dev to the gamer. what the devs develop on, the gamers play on. so its highly optimised. plus the consoles are capped at 30FPS. thus high visual fidelity can be reached though a continuous cycle of optimisation.

PC, on the other hand has a infinitely varied combination of hardware, which is almost impossible to optimise for. in this case, only GPU drivers are somewhat optimised, that too, by the chipset makers.

A little dedication and inability to buy a gaming rig would do. Trust me I have faced it. :p



Yeah sure, I am tired of my current set anyway. :D

Anand is right about his version of playability, there were GPUs and games which in past had put up a fight to render at most 20-22 FPS, its just that there were three points which made us immune to the lag, stuttering and all other obstacles to a proper soothing gameplay

1. The game itself...which is so unimaginably attractive and we fall in love with it so much that we start to give a s***t about graphics and manage to play it by any means.
2. The game engine and GPU combo which somehow manage our eyes that "even if its 25 fps, i will show it to you almost as beautiful as 30+", happened to many games and we played through.
3. lack of realization or self consolation to an extreme proportion, like "i dont know a crap about FRAPS and i dont care kitna deti hain" or "i know my GPU is crying inside bent on knees and the game is dragging itself but musst..pllaay...ggames...a lil more.... aaand the games beaten"

the above applicability is withered through time now and games now a days especially like crysis if played in lower than 30-40,looks and feels like a boar in a rose bush. makes no sense of playing it that way, better beem up someday and rip that s o b down with a Titan or ARES 2 or have at least decent cards which gives 60+

This.
When I used to game on my previous RIG I never used fraps because it kinda breaks you heart and it says that you can't play because everyone says that 20fps is not enough. Now turn fraps off and you don't know what you are getting, all you know that a game needs to be beaten no matter what. :D

First review out, in a polish magazine, and its positive..

CD-Action Mag known for big games early Reviewing Reviewed Crysis has the 3rd and Gave it a great 9 out of 10. Crydev forums from a user named "crysis" published a few details about the review as you can see below:

Takes it to 5h complete game in normal mode with Sidemissions
there is something cool after credits
Probably Driveble tank
does not exclude future Dlc ending
last two levels are really big
facial done better than in LA Noire Animations
you can see the cover of magazine calling it a MEGA REVIEW because its 8 pages.

overall 9/10
gameplay 9/10
video 10/10
audio 8/10

You are here to discuss the game or piracy ?? I mean why would anyone use that word or similar. OK fine you got the idea about game size from there. You could have just stated that you found that on torrent and no problem, but no you had to use Skidrow didn't you. Its like you are not ashamed because you pirate the game but you are damn proud of it. Your mind needs to grow up.

Whats the difference between using torrent and skidrow? Does using " torrent " makes it legal or better?

i am niether supporting piracy nor using pirated game.Its not like people here dont know anything about piracy.

Played the game on X360 for an hour or so. And guys, there isn't anything ground breaking here. Just a typical FPS game running on a good technology.

The game is not as open as Crysis was and is not as closed as Crysis 2. It is some where between the both. Enemies are kind of dumb at the medium difficulty. Have not much to complain and have not much to praise.

And I agree with the reviewers. This game more or less feels like a tech demo.

The game is not as open as Crysis was and is not as closed as Crysis 2. It is some where between the both. Enemies are kind of dumb at the medium difficulty. Have not much to complain and have not much to praise.

And I agree with the reviewers. This game more or less feels like a tech demo.

Can u post some screenshots??

Psycho's face is photo-realistic. It looks like CG. Darn, the graphics have improved!

blame it to online MPs where you need to shoot bots controlled by real people ;-) every game now these days ( sans a few ) focus more on the MP. anyway, after reading the posts I think I will delay my urge to getting this one and no matter how good Cod BO2 is this time I did not feel like finishing ( actually playing ) it for the first time since the release of first COD - Crysis 3 will follow the same path.

Yeah, when the game is too easy then I don't want to play it. I want some challenge and if game can't provide me then I usually move to other games. :)
I don't play online at all. I do like Co-op games but not that online MP. I tried it but didn't liked it much, co-op is also a no go nowadays when I have a $hitty net connection and my room mates and friends "can't handle that hard game like Borderlands where enemies don't die in 2-3 bullets" in their words.

Finished the game in about 6 hours on veteran difficulty ! During the fist two mission , story is a little boring , go here do this , go there do that etc etc , after that it started to pick the pace and story become more interesting but still it cant match with the previous game ! Mp is very good especially hunter mode ! you can give around 50 hour without getting bored . When everything max out , this game is a beast and visuals are very impressive . So overall 7/10 .

PS: Crysis 2 - got for rs 999 - 10 hour sp + 70 hour mp played
Crysis 3 - got for rs 1499 - 5 hour campaign + 50 hour mp played .

Borderlands isn't hard. It's just a bit scary and overwhelming at times if you ask me because it requires you to backtrack a lot to kill most enemies. Enemies tend to charge at you and you can't stand/move sideways and shoot like in most shooters. Due to the open nature of the game and limited range of weapons coupled with the fact that most enemies require several shots to be killed means that you can't hide somewhere and pick off enemies. Also, there's no running away from certain enemies. Once they see you, its either kill or be killed.

None of my friends are a big fan of Borderlands but I played that game for like 6 months at a stretch.

I didn't say limited range of weapons to mean there weren't many weapons. There were more weapons that anyone can ever end up using. I meant most of the weapons had limited shooting range. In many other shooters, you can pick off enemies from insane distances, sometimes even with a damn pistol let alone automatic rifles.

Bordrerlands is not scary by any means possible. Yes its kinda overwhelming when 5-6 enemies comes to kill you at once but then again if you are playing it with 3 players then that gets taken care of. And man are kiddin me by saying it has limited range of weapons. It has weapons in millions not thousand, no game has that amount of weapons. Yes you can pick up enemies from distance if you know how to do. I do this all the time.
My friends don't like Borderlands because the game is different than the generic shooters and also the graphics are cell shaded which is not acceptable for many people. They think that its weird that enemies don't die even with a headshot because they have no idea what RPG means let aside other gaming genres. In simple words they are noobs who don't know a jack about gaming so they think that this game is not good. When I showed then the rating about the best Co-Op MP games then they were kinda shocked by the results, if you ask me many people don't even know what Borderlands is who are too busy with COD and similars.

I think I mentioned in another thread that I barely clock in 10 hours of gaming a month at the most. I have been playing Dishonored since the day it was released, still not even half way through; I didn't even turn on my desktop this month.

The only games I am truly addicted to are Third Person Stealth Action games and Sandbox games like GTA. When games like that come out, I literally play all day long. I don't usually go near first person games unless I find one that is exceptional like Dishonored.

Not limited number of weapons but limited shooting range of weapons. Check my previous post, already clarified that bit. Only snipers have any kind of range but they suck because sometimes even two shots to the head with a Sniper don't kill the enemy and that's a serious disadvantage because as soon the first shot is fired they charge at you.

Headshot will do more damage, but to kill the enemy the damage>health, so if your shot does 500dam and health is 400, instant headshot kill with the head exploding apart.

BTW: You can turn of cell shading.

That's the great thing about RPGs because its not dumbed down like fps. Damage per second, enemy health, weapon range, accuracy %, defense, all these statistics must be taken into account. You have to make important decisions regarding gear and skill set throughout the game to stay competitive.

Yeah but no character is good at all four. You can specialize in any one type of weapon or semi-specialize in two types. Each character is only good at using certain types of weapons. So its kinda futile to keep a sniper in hand if you are gonna specialize in shotguns. Its a bit like Diablo. If you play a barbarian, there's no point carrying a crossbow.

No No... don't compare any RPG with any FPS, Both the genres are entirely different in their true sense and are mutually exclusive. Well, they have crossed paths and complimented each other in occasions and has given birth to beautiful games, but never did they deviated from their natural offerings...i can write miles long on this, and its a topic of late 90's even relevant on today's games, experiments will occur, versatility and cross-culture in games will be observed for commercialization and entertainment, but FPS will remain FPS and wear their Cross-hair Crown...and RPG will remain RPG with dice rolls and inventories. Even Crysis 6 will never replace Morrowind or NeverWinterNights....and Torchlight 4 can never replace CS Anthology. Fans will be there for both...I feel FPS is a genre where i can simply not finish my tea but follow a headshot order from Captain Price, its that blood boiling, alertness thing..always running and doing something that kills...while in RPG i can have my beer and take one full hour just to manage my skill points and swords in my backpack over and over...its the relax and game-on thing.

Also the sweetness of BL and BL2 is co-op...if u have never done that, u missed a LOT. Trust me, i played co-op both lan and MP and its a colossal difference in fun. 4 players, one planet, bazillion weapons and loot...tougher enemies...hell yeah! Chaos Theory

True, but when me, faun and piyush used to play, we used all sorts of weapons, half the time piyush the sniper would run around with a rocket launcher, I stuck with my sniper, being a solder, and faun, a siren was all about SMGs(elemental though), but we never faced any balancing issues, games like borderlands awards you for your type, but does not penalize you for using different types, a soldier with a sniper can be deadly as well, that's the beauty of borderlands, its not like mass effect when using a specific class may have you locked out of specific weapons.

Japanese .Steam Id : aitani0920. Ur slot hack conclusion is wrong. Let me explain. The Cheatengine slot hack works in a different way that the chest hack. I know why u are calling those useless, because at a certain level you always received weapons which are below your char level and hence lacked damage. Where some purple even green! weapons at your char level provided more damage and so, u thought that F*** dis ****, slot hacks are crap. :D correct me if am wrong.

But the way the hex values and libraries in CE works is, when hacked the slot machine will give you weapons which matches the "DIFFICULTY/ REQUIREMENT LEVEL for MAIN STORY" at that point of time in the game and not the "CHARACTER LEVEL U HAVE". So in normal mode, when ur playing a a char level 25, slot is giving u 18 level weapons, why? because by naturally farming and doing side missions, u have long surpassed the original Difficulty level of the main story mission and its now showing Normal or even Trivial. Also let me tell u , @normal mode the game completion difficulty req ( killing the warrior) is 30.

But then u are already 32 ( at least if u half did the side missions ) and the story is yet to complete or is complete!. So u always will get level 30 weapons from slot no matter what level u gained after farming over and over. But this story changes in TVHM. When u ideally start TVHM at 33-34, the slot machine will automatically reset to again the story completion diff req, which had grown to 35..it will increase and ultimately go to 50, if ur finishing at that mode. So after TVHM, u will always get level 50 legendary weapons. Orange weapons are no doubt, the craziest, most incredibly powerful and impossibly difficult to find loot in BL2

I know all of this, just check the BL2 thread in digit, I made most of the discoveries you mentioned here when I was playing months ago, I got the slothack and used cheatengine to bind all the chests in game, its just that the orange weapons are useless as in, some of them do not even hit the target, I got a launcher once, none of the missiles it launched would reach the target if they are not standing in front of your nose, some actually had negative effects, I find purple and blue loot more useful during the game.

Well it is a DOCSIS modem, meaning it uses the coaxial cable tv line.. The modem is the one that stores all information regarding the connection speed and download limit..
Whenever you download something, the modem uploads how much mb you have downloaded to the ISP server and the server sets the limitations..
But what if the modem never uploads ?
Look at my sig.. im not joking..
ask anyone from my city, how pathetic ortel connection is..
PS: I have used Unlimited Plan, and just increased speed using modem.. you can use it on a 200mb limited plan as well to get unlimited high speed connection

No offense but you sound like a noob, trying to say the game is bad as it gives slow-mo pictures in his PC 'cause it can't handle the game well.

How in God's name can a modem increase the net speed?

Sorry, that sounds very noobish.

Yeah, when the game is too easy then I don't want to play it. I want some challenge and if game can't provide me then I usually move to other games. :)
I don't play online at all. I do like Co-op games but not that online MP. I tried it but didn't liked it much, co-op is also a no go nowadays when I have a $hitty net connection and my room mates and friends "can't handle that hard game like Borderlands where enemies don't die in 2-3 bullets" in their words. This is too hard for them. :evil:

ladies ;-)

:D :D i got a roommate now, here, who claimed on the first day seeing me play "cheap and easy games" like "Dota2" that he've been playing games "Seriously" for last 10 years. I offered him FC3, he tried to move the gun with arrow keys with right hand, i offered him NFS MW, he figured that this must require mouse movement and stood still with Porche 911 for 10 mints...then finally i convinced him play Street fighter Vs Tekken...serious game...son of a b*** lost after playing "Sitar" and "Tabla" with mah keyboard and said..."kya tum khelte ho? bekaar game sab...kabhi WWE Smackdown 2007 khela hain?

I've seen plenty of such "eff" Heads .. what they need is a plain kick on the arse.

I don't know if he has really done that or not but modem hacking is possible and it requires an uneducated Cable Internet Service Provider, lot of luck and great knowledge in network devices and security. Its not just a job which can be done reading some Google pages. DOCSIS (Data Over Cable Services Interface Specification) is the way to go.

Minimum system requirements for PC

Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8
DirectX 11 graphics card with 1Gb Video RAM
Dual core CPU
2GB Memory (3GB on Vista)
Nvidia/Intel example setup: Nvidia GTS 450, Intel Core2 Duo 2.4 Ghz (E6600)
AMD example setup: AMD Radeon HD5770, AMD Athlon64 X2 2.7 Ghz (5200+)

Recommended system requirements for PC

Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8
DirectX 11 graphics card with 1GB Video RAM
Quad core CPU
4GB Memory
Nvidia/Intel example setup: Nvidia GTX 560, Intel Core i3-530
AMD example setup: AMD Radeon HD5870, AMD Phenom II X2 565

Hi-performance system requirements for PC

Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8
Latest DirectX 11 graphics card
Latest quad core CPU
8GB Memory
Nvidia/Intel example setup: NVidia GTX 680, Intel Core i7-2600k
AMD example setup: AMD Radeon HD7970, AMD Bulldozer FX4150

I think it performs pretty well in most scenarios as even a fairly low-end system with HD 5670 can play it with 30-35 fps in low at 720p, HD 7750 can play it at about 30-35 fps in low-medium settings(1600x900) , my HD 7850 can play it at 38-40 avg fps (1080p , very high). I get almost identical frames on both Crysis 2 ,3 .

Alliance and all similar local ISPs don't provide individual customers with modems & they set limitations server side using 24Online software. Clients don't need any apps to connect, just need to login to the 24Online server via webpage.

Absolutely not. Different cables.

i am able to play at 50-60 fps @ high but it goes down to 20-30 in the fields mission and i always get 50-60fps in MP

@tkin and @Uttarpara 580 holder...how do think 580 Lightning can fair against today's cards...of course its slower but hey! it was a powerful card nonetheless...its not some 8800!...so what is the similar performance card available now... equivalent to that one from both camps if we scale it after Crysis3 performance?
GTX580 lies between 7870 and GTX660Ti.

Well I've seen 50-55, for some seconds though.
I just wanna know if anyone here has a 680 and how much fps he got in that rainy mission, where Psycho will ladder up and you'll go across to meet him. Often fps dropped below 20 there!

Well that says it all, GTX580 manages 29 at that res and very high+FXAA, but i think its average FPS, so at 1600*900 and "high" instead of those can promise a good 35-40 may be? Then it should be pretty decent!

And that benchmark, 660ti beats a 7950 ghz :D

Just goint through the TechSpot review and there is a interesting cache about the CPU performance. Crysis 2 used to be one of the handful of games which can scale up to 8 Cores, not optimally but can use and Crysis 3 is just a true Multi-Core optimized titles. It scales well in all the available Cores and the Dual Core processors like i3 3220 can't cope up with the quad core processors, even a A10 Trinity is more than 10 FPS ahead of it, even at 1080P resolution.

you wont have anything to lose if you dont play Crysis3. on the contrary, 5hrs of your valuable time will be saved ;)

I believe there is no reason to continue this thread, Benchmarks are available in all over the internet, gameplay is revealed in You tube, Experiences are shared in Origin forum, and we have discussed enough how graphically intensive, yet worthless and time-wasting game it is. There must be better games out there worth putting time in than to discuss how bad another game such as this...has become.

Its not like that posting on "lets discuss how stupid Crysis3 is" is very very critically important "ON-TOPIC" subject and deviating from it is subject to deletion of posts. Crysis3 is there, its not good, everyone..lets play it once or let us not, uninstall it and get over it. End of Story.

And before that he took some guy, who was surviving or dead God knows, named as Alcatraz, to wear the damn NS of Prophet and continue the mission. As Prophet was rotting in his body (if that could be called a body!).
And now we start C3, see Prophet as the lead character, and he talks, and I always thought it's Alcatraz definitely, anyone other than Alien would think the same :| and then at end I see Prophet. So for a human being like me (I won't be a human being anymore if I continue to play some crap like this, but that's a different issue altogether), there could be two possibilities,
1- Prophet didn't die with that headshot! In that case whole C2 story is a bunch of crap!
2- Or Alcatraz looks like Prophet or a twin of him? If not, where did Alcatraz go?
Now did you understand what I mean?

Here's a line from the ending of C3

Claire: The nanites in your suit are free. That means they can transform into anything - any form imaginable.

That means Prophet has the ability to transform into anyone/anything...even Nicki Minaj. He chose to tranform into Laurence Barnes in the end, and he did...hope that clears your confusion. As for Alcatraz's existence, we will never know, he probably exists as a biological being within the nano suit, but Prophet is in control.

Can someone ****ING tell me how on earth a person who shoots himself in the previous version just pop up in this game and as the lead character as well? Okay, his damn mind didn't die, but how come he physically is present? Where the **** did Alcatraz go? Damn, this is more confusing and actually nonsense than that Ink monster in Far Crap 3!
The suite is like a parasite, it can actually meld with a person, combine with his existence and become one, sort of like an AI like Doc Ock in Spiderman 2, when prophet killed himself he didn't kill the AI, he killed himself, but think of it like this, although without a body the suite can no longer function but prophet's memories live inside the AI, the suite is no longer a suite any more, when alcatraz puts it back on, the modified ai starts to meld with alcatraz's mind, the ai link works both ways.

If you had studied biology, you would know its possible to modify a bacteria by altering its genes, now that say you have bacteria A(i.e gene A), this is prophet, now you modify with gene X, now prophet is AX, now you take this gene out and the bacteria dies, but AX gene is still active, lets call it Y, now you modify bacteria B with Y, you have YB, now this new bacteria will have traits from A as well as modified gene X and new gene B, you have YB i.e AXB (gross simplification but if you had studied biology then this concept will be very much clear to you by now).

I haven't played Crysis 3 as of now, but looking forward to give a try. But the thing is too much of complaint is not digestible sometimes, specially for those, who haven't played yet or going to play after those patch are officially released. And specially when the Game gets praised by lot & also criticized in equal.

Now the best thing for those who played it, is stop ranting how bad the plot is or how bad the AI is designed.

Sorry dude, again, I don't agree with you at all.
Those who wanna play, will/should play this anyway, regardless of positive/negative comments. I've started this game after seeing such poor opinions on this game, those comments didn't change my mind or wish of playing this by even half percentage. But that's because I don't really care about others opinions.
This game deserves to be criticised, pretty badly. If you like a game, you come and praise that and give good rating, you hate it just do the opposite. It's simple.
And this is a game we are talking about, how do you even bring something like 'digestible' in it? We are not talking about a person or someone in someone's family!
:what:
I think a simple thing Digit members forget from time to time, is that, "Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion". Whether you like it or not, a different thing. You CAN NOT put your words in others mouth. You can't digest if a game is criticized? Well sorry dude, time to consult a doctor (and I'm not saying this to you, but all, especially those who likes to keep nagging until he likes or forces someone with his opinion)
Meh!

facing a weird problem...
i am in the Red Star Rising level, at the point where I cross a bridge with Cell units on it [after the dune buggy driving]... i cleared the bridge and entered the tower at the end.
now, after going down the stairs, I drop into the water below, and the game crashes.

any suggestions??

meanwhile, the same graphical :facepalm: as i said before.. this is inside the said bridge tower..

and dont tell this is due to my settings.. my texture setting is on Highest. :p

Okay dude, as I have said earlier, those screenshots looked kinda weird to me, and now I can confrim, there is something wrong with your PC mate, I played that damn level and exactly that part, in fact I checked every stairs, well, see how it looks on mine. And this time it's on Medium - Medium, not High.

This reminds me of Borderlands2 when i used to alt-tab out and then re enter, the game took some time to initialize textures in terrain, vegetation, details...first it seemed blurred and then in seconds it comes to normal....but it only happened if i turn phyx on, the extra visuals take time to initialize more...like particles...does it have anything to do with Phyx in this game?

That happens, cause the GPU kicks back in, and starts to re-render. It is quite fast.

hmmm.. cant figure out the problem.. can you post a screen shot of your Advanced Graphics Menu??

btw, this game has Major conflicts. *pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Crysis_3#MSI_Afterburner_causes_crash <<----- this happened with me. Multiple times. Once just after the last screenshot i posted. :|

yep thats Texture Fade-In. With Physx on, the GPU has extra load for processing.. thats why it takes more time for the textures to initialize.

Its hard to remember with C3 like game. :|

Well, initially i had those P-rated Crysis 2 & believe me it never crashed neither i hated it too. I like the AI & Gameplay, though the story is not so good. Later i went on & bought the Original Crysis 2 & my HD 7970 can't handle it with Full ON. So waiting for my next HD 7970 [never settle bundle includes Bioshock Infinity & Crysis 3].

Good for you, I regretted my purchase, the bugs were so annoying, the AI was broken most of the time. I enjoyed it, but it was still a nightmare, particularly when you spend money on something and it doesn't live up to your expectations ;)

i don't know why people are complaining about AI in Crysis 3...i think the AI is fine, the only problem is cloak..when you use it there is no way the enemies can find you they will not see you even you if stand very close to them....just cloak, use bow, kill enemies, hide and recharge energy, pick up used arrows and repeat this again and again...they cant even touch you

but if u you play it like a standard FPS..i think it is a first class shooter

Let me tell you one thing. Cloak Mode is not meant to be used for the entire gameplay session. Although its entirely depending on you to decide. But i guess Cloak Mode exactly meant that. You will be Mr. India for sometime.

if you you don't use cloak and just use armor and play it like standard fps...its really great...

any idea how crysis 3 would work on my laptop? i3-380m/gt 540m/3gb ram

U will have to run it on low resolution, maybe 1024 X 768 with other settings medium/high.... OR 1366 X 768 with other settings medium/low...
but don't 4get to update ur driver.

Not because of gameplay but because this is perhaps the first official game to support asymmetrical crossfire.( It shows a rectangular box stating amd dual graphics technology after enabling cf). Got 60+ fps :bananana:

Not gonna complain, but Crysis 3 was sooooo easy!! Finished the game PHW settings in my first run in 11 hours- and I actually wasted time exploring every single level looking for useless intel and crap during all that time.

Bah, got it for free from game4u, so not gonna judge it.

Note: Before you ask how I got it for free, here are the exact steps that have to be followed for you to emulate my situation:

  1. Make sure the courier (in my case, FedEX) forgets to take the cash during delivery.
  2. Contact Game4U about the order. Wait for 3 days. If no response, send another email. Make sure they tell you that they will call you.
  3. When they call you, make sure they ask you "Are you sure the courier forgot sir?"
  4. Tell them "Yes, I don't think I will give away Rs. 1500 without reason...lol."
  5. They will say "My colleague from your area's office will collect the moolah. We will contact you to confirm date of pickup."
  6. Wait for 2 weeks. If no further communication, enjoy your free copy of Crysis 3 :D:D:D:D:D

duh! That's what I said :|
And the shadows aren't a flaw. The cloak just reflects the light rays, not make the object transparent.
Extreme Gamer
Mar 18, 2013 at 8:28 PM
If the cloak reflects light rays, then you can see it without a problem :/

If it bends light rays around it, the shadow should be barely there (since the cloak isn't 100%)

If it absorbs light, then cloak mode should make the suit appear like a black silhuette...

So nope, it is a design flaw.

light rays bent or reflected, shadows will definitely be created and the game does cast shadows of cloaked bodies too(yeah, that's one more way you can spot the cloaked guys), how is that a design flaw? :|

Basic optics, if light is reflected from an object then you can definitely see the object. So cloak would be visible; to human eyes at least, can't say about those aliens.

BTW, just installed the game yesterday and run a bit, the graphics are top notch although the sea at night seems bland. High settings with SMAA 2x is playable so far.

oh god nevermind. I'm confusing myself now, you're right. My point was, that when the light doesn't pass through the object, the shadows will be created. But what word is it, Ricochet, bounce?
Extreme Gamer
Mar 19, 2013 at 10:37 AM
reflect, bounce and absorb are the three words :)

the nanosuit is supposed to bend light during cloak, not bounce it back or reflect it.

The only explanation is a coding limitation, because the engine does not do full scale raytracing, which is the only way to really avoid the glitch without looking odd.

No I don't think its Bend through the body, its impossible. Again, like I said, the suit does not become transparent to let the light go through it. There are some ways in the real world to get the cloak working by bending the light around the object so that it blends with the environment, but not transparent. Its the same in the game, the nanosuit is supposed to bend the light around itself, not letting it pass through, so the obvious shadows ;)
Extreme Gamer
Mar 19, 2013 at 11:02 AM
when did i say bend through? Obviously if the suit will bend light, it well bend the light around it...
And if it bends around the suit, it has to reconverge to generate the illusion. If not, the spot will appear black with a very poorly defined shadow.

If the suit becomes transparent you will see the nerve cluster and goop that remains of alcatraz

no, if all type rays is reflected then we wouldn't see the object, it would act like a mirror. But that not the case.
I think it is a flaw.
Or may be all light rays aren't bend, but still the shadow should be softer in cloacked mode than that of in uncloaked mode.

Appearance : Performance, SMAA. Performance, FXAA. Appearance, MSAA.

All my personal opinion and experience, not based on any screenshot. To me FXAA looked very fuzzed out, SMAA looked most "natural", while MSAA looked smoothest but had a little more fuzz than SMAA.

All this is comparing the highest available options for each AA to me.

The only game where I used FXAA was Battlefield 3, and only because the textures are soft anyway, so the added fuzz makes only a marginal difference. IMHO TXAA should have been released instad of FXAA. FXAA is only a post-process feature that blurs a completed frame, not unlike the "definition" option in GTAIV, and not a genuine AA process.

IDK if you noticed, but if you have a silenced weapon, at the cost of some energy, you can play duck hunt with them while cloaked and your cloak will not disappear at the first shot. You can get 2-3 shots like that. Very effective.

I found the aliens to be troublesome, not because of anything but their mobility. Springy little b****rds. And I found that no crosshair, no aim shooting was very easy (and I managed to get lots of headshots like that). Bows and arrows are good against a small number of enemies. But against large packs you would run out of special arrows and you would have to keep moving to recover the standard projectiles. NOT my style of playing.

In post-human warrior, he blows them up no matter what I do. In fact, he ends up destroying most of the cover that is present. The best I can do is hide to replenish ammo. If he comes near my hiding spot I have no choice but to shoot him or it's EMP will destroy my cloak. And then I have to scurry for ammo when the scum calls its minions.

So no, it isnt as easy as you think it is in the difficulty I play in.

If he comes near my hiding spot I have no choice but to shoot him or it's EMP will destroy my cloak. And then I have to scurry for ammo when the scum calls its minions.

So no, it isnt as easy as you think it is in the difficulty I play in.

now i want to try it in post human warrior.. :twisted:

And you better destroy the projectiles it forms. Armour is compulsary if you want to take him on.

Do note though. The day I was having trouble, it was at night ~2300 hours and I was sorta exhausted after a pretty 4 hour gaming session (not Crysis 3 for 4 hours lol- 1 hour in that game). Even 4 tries weren't enough.

Next day, when I was refreshed, I killed it on the second try :D

there's plenty of covers and make use of the MG guns lying around and don't forget the grenade launcher of the VTOL. .. when I had to fight with this baddass all I used was typhoon and dsg sniper and not to mention the nade launcher and after taking the baddass alien down I discovered there was MGs lying around ;-)

Found out that there was a sort of Canon lying around.It helped me kill him faster. Also used the CB arrows and GL VTOL.

fought the ceph mastermind and died after a brief battle. he took 3 RPG shots like it was nothing. have a .50 cal at my disposal (VTOL's side mounted gun) so that should ease the pressure. it looks more like a survival as there is almost no cover and whatever little bit of protective slabs were there are destroyed systematically.

I didnt use alien weapons against the mastermind. Try to shoot it in the head-neck area and use as many typhoon bullets as you can find. Offload all your non-renewable arrows into the scumbag's head too. Then pick up the Mk60 and shoot. Then shoot with the SCAR. After that shoot with the SCARAB. And then you're down to peashooter :D

thats the best way to offload 3000 bullets. and a few arrows.
need some kind of health bar to show how long it'll take for him to be down. like Borderlands bosses.

Freaky Awesome game though I am not happy with gameplay time took 9hrs to complete it (coz I was playing slow) & levels are very very less.
My rating: 8/10
It has ground breaking graphics & sound is also excellent...
gameplay is OK (not so good as C2 & C1)
the solar flare is the best I have ever seen (none of any game gives so realistic flares)
Lighting is top-notch...I played in 1080p resolution with SMAA on (got a decent fps ;) )
The new Bow is the best weapon with modified ammos (really a plus point in game)
Cut-scenes (oh mann..the game starts with such a damn awesome cutscene of ship) are brilliant it feels like I m watching an Action Movie in BluRay ;)
The Rain effects are so much detailed...they (devs) must have taken help from Crysis 2 Mods :mrgreen:
Graphics is where Crysis 3 excels...

Now in Weapons detailing is also so much detailed (u can see the serial no of wepons in hand..the scope detailing is marvelous)
the Alien Weapons (X-Pac Mortar,Pinger,cannon etc) are beautifully designed....Hacking turrets to your advantage is also a plus point.

Also its a good game to be used in Graphic Cards Benchmarks.

what is AAA ???

anyway, read this :

Is Crysis 3 the end of Crysis?

Cevat Yerli: It's the end of the story of Crysis, but that doesn't mean it's the end of the franchise. It's the end of Prophet's story. Prophet started the journey in Crysis 1 with Psycho and Jester and others, and we're bringing those buddies together in Crysis 3 to finish up the story and effectively make sense out of the trilogy. We are finalising the story arc of Prophet to conclude in a dramatic way.

But obviously the DNA of Crysis and the franchise, we are very excited about it and we think there can be literally tonnes of titles out there within the franchise. Unlike Far Cry, this time around we feel very flexible about Crysis.

Will you do a Crysis 4?

Cevat Yerli: I wouldn't name it Crysis 4 at this stage.

Add to that the fact that he says "I wouldn't call it Crysis 4 at this stage". I'm fairly certain this will be a Nomad game, or at the very least one that will connect to Nomad.

It is better than Crysis 2 in gameplay but the story IMHO is slightly worse. The story is very short. If you're really good at FPSes, you will finish the game quickly depending on difficulty setting. I finished it in 8 hours in Post-Human Warrior, and I was playing slowly, doing quite a bit of exploration.

Your mileage will vary.

you need to start from Crysis 1 and then continue towards warhead, C2 and then this .. well, the story definitely is not so good but it's Ok to go with but the gameplay is is good .. just crank up the difficulty and you'll enjoy at-least a little .. sigh, most of the modern shooters are so easy to master ( SP campaign barring some tactical shooters ) it's a shame to play the SP part in normal mode.

BTW, talking about fun part the devs should really think about driving a speedboat and vehicles ( or tanks ) to reach the objective area just like the Crysis 1 .. still no Crysis game is better than this ( well warhead may be on par ) .

C2 was tougher than C3...if u like eye-candy & new weapons give C3 a try...I liked the bow & arrow ;)

Looks like bow and arrow has become quite a theme..first Tomb Raider,then Crysis 3 and now The Last of Us...

I think bow and arrow used first on FC3 - talking about some most recent popular games.

Crysis 1 was definitely the best.. It was so much more than linear FPS games

Crysis 1 was just above average with you ask me; that doesn't mean the sequels are any better though.

Warhead was the best of the series, but only decent IMO.

now that have mentioned DAO - I've almost forgot this game ( re-added into my to be played ).

BTW, I really do miss the tactical attachment ( those sleep darts from Crysis 1 ) or there's anything like this is C3 but I did not find it ?

Darn. I am totally loving this game. The facial animations, man they're f**kin' awesome, that too in real time. Yep, the bow & arrow is great. I love how they justify it as a great weapon with kinetic energy and it being linked with Nanosuit or some shyt like that.

Only thing I hate is that they rub off Nomad's name liek he isn't even relevant. :x

NOMAD FOREVER!

EDIT: And.... I revived two month old thread. 'Cause Nanosuit.

I just started playing the game. I totally agree. Facial animations are superb!
Of all the video games I have played till now, this one has the best graphics (I'm playing at 1080p Medium-High settings) . Especially the tall grass parts. WOW!!!!!!!!!

Just finished the game. I dont understand why this game got such a low review. I seriously fail to understand. Is it because of the MP? I haven't tried the MP yet. I was totally blown away by the SP. Blown away man.

Its the length of SP campaign, also MP wasn't that good.

@gameranand Don't you think this game deserves atleast 85/100 rating ? SP was too cool man! It wasn't extremely linear like Cry2. We got to roam in huge environments, lots of space. Terrific visuals (Looked better than real life).

And I actually played a bit of that alien vs human mode in the beta (Don't remember what it's called), got bored.!!

Well after playing all the games I think this game don't deserve much from me TBH.
