1up previews Crysis - 1st online screens

Very nice indeed, Crytek CAN use realistic colours! :D

Hopefully the aliens in Crysis aren't as annoying as the original Trigens in Far Cry.
 
Another tech demo made into a game.

Sexy stuff, for sure, and stuff to look forward too. Can't say I care about the game, though, but purty tech.

I enjoyed Far Cry. I'm pretty sure they will produce a great sequel instead of a fancy tech demo.
 
Absolutely I-N-S-A-N-E graphics.

Too bad it has aliens and guns and shit (and YES it's a day one purchase for me).
 
According to everything we've read about Crysis this shack will be totally destructible. Ram a truck in its side an it will collapse.

Holy fuck, imagine that.

Envirnments look dope too!
 
All that stuff they are doing makes my wallet cry.


I :lol'd at
crysis is all about gameplay
especially when the next paragraph describes how leaves deform realistically when they hit the ground.
 
The pics on the print magazine previews show even more impressive stuff though. Weird that 1UP did not get all the same material than those mags. Insane facial detail, day/night comparisons, HDR lighting, shadows, immensely dense jungle with a tank partol and Korean scout soldier going through it etc..
 
Sheeet.

Man, I really wonder if the technology crown (at least on the Western, PC-centric side) has been overthrown from iD and Carmack. I want to see if Carmack can still outclass teams of extremely talented guys like Crytek and Epic.
 
Diminishing Retu--

Holy shit. So hot. Although I admit for a minute I thought the thread said "1up previews CryOn - 1st online screens", and so I was disappointed at first... but the contents totally were worth it. Stunning.
 
To what is it a sequel though? I see people mentiong sequel.

I'm sure this is a new IP for Electronic Arts. Ubisoft has Far Cry still, so I guess they will come with a similar kind of game again for the sequel on that.
 
Some of the items that are explained are crazy...like how their implimenting Soft shadows, HDR, Volumetric Fog and Clouds, Breakable Objects, DoF, Soft Particles etc all under one game

This game should be a technical achievment when its released...

I would also say the graphics in Stranglehold are up there with this...

You see the scans?

;)

Edit: I just checked if there was a thread about Stranglehold after this post...lol...so you have seen them. The game looks great.

Is this the first anounced game that will be taking advantage of Direct X10?

Its predominately a DX9/SM3.0 based engine according to the developers. I dont expect we'll see games really exploiting DX10 hardware for at least a couple more years. Still, this just goes to show you how little the DX9/SM3 path has been taken advantage of up until this point. A lot of PC games, even the most recent ones, still use a lot of DX8 legacy to accomodate the middle ground.

Ya well...the jungle shot is still unbeaten IMO, even without characters on it. The games are also hardly comparable...I mean, there are whole islands you can conquer in Crysis, no ?
 
This is a "morning/daytime" GIF I made out of a video on dl.tv:

Too bad we can't post scans here but I think most of us have already seen that scene as a much better quality scanned version.
 
Almost 50 replies, and none of these 'these aren't impressive' type replies? Whats wrong with you GAF?!



















BTW - These screenshots rock.
