Got the "sys_maxfps=30" to work. Had to add it to my .exe
Thanks again Crytek for putting in there! =D

You should just avoid that EA logo for a while.nubbe said:I love Crysis and Warhead and is was so excited about Crysis 2.
It just feels so underwhelming in every aspect compared to the original games.
And Crossfire is broken
this and Dragon Age 2 suckage, my life is in a crisis! omg
Except maybe in the case of Sims Medieval.
Well I finally managed to log in. Had to go to network and sharing center > wireless adapter settings > sharing and uncheck "allow other network users to connect through this computer's internet connection."
How fucking random is that?
EDIT: serial code in use
I am having no luck at all.

Nah. I wish not, brah, but nah. This one's on Crytek. This game is hardly rushed. And honestly, DA 2 was on Bioware. I dislike EA, but responsibility needs to be assigned where it should be.

I had a helluva time getting commands to work in system.cfg until I realized it needed the '=' in the command. After that, worked like a charm.

Mickey, I noticed you're not using some of the sys commands that I've got in mine.
Code:
sys_spec_texture = 3
sys_spec_postprocessing = 3
sys_spec_shading = 3
sys_spec_water = 3
sys_spec_particles = 3
sys_spec_objectdetail = 3
sys_spec_shadows = 3Just curious to the reasoning. Going to try your config here in a minute after I back mine up.
EDIT: Looks good, Mickey. Now if I could only be more motivated to play the silly thing. :-/
That didn't work. What finally did it was logging in, opening multi, going back to single, then back to multi. What an ordeal this game has been._tetsuo_ said:
Anyway I'm really enjoying the mp so far. My first round I stole some guy's rifle and sat in the lighthouse sniping people and placed second. I'm also finding nanovision to be extremely useful.
I can see myself spending a lot of time on this.
Got the PC version from Steam. Ran like shit.
Updated the SLI profile patch from EVGA, now it runs at 60fps locked!
For about five minutes...
Ugh. What the fuck, Crytek?
After a short while, the game drops to 50. Then 40. Then 30, and finally rests around 26.
GPU temp is roughly the same. Anyone else having these issues?

Seeing the impressions here I think I'm gonna wait for the bargain bin.
I really hope you used a trophy unlocker for some of that. Pour soul.

Taking random 360 screen captures from around the web and uploading them to one of my albums. Feel free to have a gander!

Was excited to try this game out, so I downloaded the demo off steam. First single player shooter in a long time to pique my interest, but upon opening the demo I was forced to create an account, accidentally signed up for email promotions, found out that it was a multiplayer demo, reluctantly tried to find a server to play on, zero servers found, exited the game.
I know experiences like this shouldn't impact my decision to purchase a game, but *barf*

I really have to say that despite playing with Max settings at a higher res on my PC, those 360 screens look really fucking close to what I see. I assume the framerate isn't nearly as smooth?
Actually, having gone back to Crysis Warhead for a bit tonight, there is an overall visual letdown with the sequel. The lushness and highly textured environments really seem missing in C2. Possibly reserved for the DX11 patch? Extremely noticeable though. Crysis 1/Warhead just appear to be visually more dense and impressive.

It actually really is, which sucks since the aliasing without it is bad but the clarity difference is staggering.NotTarts said:

Those 360 screens look insane. May be crazy to say, but we could be looking at a game with graphics on par with KZ2/3 here. The lighting looks spot on.

That area is so cool.
finally got the game to stop forgetting my serial code, but in turn had my rank reset.....
I'm enjoying the few multiplayer matches I've gotten into so far. The gameplay really does feel like a mix of COD and Halo which makes me wonder how vehicles would have faired in this new style that Crytek went for.

Not that any of the maps are big enough for that to matter

By no means. I have done a careful upsize of this xbox360 screen to the resolution I play at. It looks like poo. A 6 year old directx9 graphics card could pull this off. No dedicated console hardware magic here. Hardware from 2005 can never do better than this.

ah one of the lucky ones, according to my states iv logged 32mins of multiplayer so far and Iv only seen the lobby, funny how the demo worked better >.<
Remaining hopeful they will sort it out though, the multi was to much fun to give up now.

since both the 360 and pc version is running on direct x 9 is the only difference 30 fps vs 60?
Alexios
Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
No. Loads better effects, resolution, AF, distance lod, etc. Still, it's obviously console optimised and isn't as good as it could be on PC. Even after the DX11 patch unless they release a higher resolutiion texture pack and other such things, which they won't. Will they even do a 64bit executable? Crysis had one...terrdactycalsrock said:

Yes really. I have a powerful enough pc to run it, but I'm more comfortable with a 360 controller. So if I'm wanting to go a little out of my comfort zone I have to know that I'm buying the better version.
Alexios

You can use controllers on PC... Are many PC gamers here not even aware of half the stuff they can do with one? Although if you regularly use a PC, not even just for gaming, I dunno how you can be uncomfortable with a mouse... I mean, you use it to point & click on everything, almost the same as shooting heads off.
Anyway, the differences have been told many times over, don't get angsty over people going "really?" when you didn't even bother researching a little bit. You got answers. Also, frame rate alone should be more than enough of a reason to go for the PC version if you can run it that well...

I have played pc games before, crysis warhead, stalker, the witcher, so I know how to use a mouse a keyboard. Its just kinda nice knowing that when I get home from Gamestop today with this game that I can put it into my 360 and it'll go. Whereas if I buy the pc version I dont know how long it will take to install, whether or not I have to keep the game in, how long should I save that serial code and so on
Alexios
Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
Well, people say it performs a bit better with an install on 360 too, you wouldn't bother with long term benefits just to play within 5 minutes of purchase?
And, just keep the game in whether it's required or not, it won't harm anything... You can test if it's needed later when you have time (10 seconds, lols).
And what do you mean save the cd key? Do you throw manuals away after playing?
Anyway, even if frame rate was the only difference, it's more than reason enough to go for it. Barely 30 fps vs 60 (again, if you can run it that well) I mean, REALLY?
After all this I'm half expecting you to go "well I'm getting it for 360, take that PC dudes" lol. Just do what's best for you man.
