5 hours into the game and the story, if you can call it that, is downright boring.
like, the hippie scientist loves squid man! they seriously ran out of ideas that I ahd to go to the guy's lab to blow up 'cause he forgot? awful.
firefights are a bit more intense but only because of the having to kill every enemy bit before being able to advance (I'm looking at you helicopter) otherwise it's like shooting at paper targets. no real exciliration to combat.
the collapsed highway section was ok but the driving part was pointless. I didn't "need" a vehicle. I could have done all that on foot but the way the game is designed, I would not have been able to defeat those two tanks at that point in time.
question, am I supposed to be able to collect alien DNA or whatever it is to upgrade the suit or did I run into a glitch?
everything continues to be "OK" in this game, just not downright great like part 1 and the enemy AI is downright awful on veteran. I shot a guy in the chest and he kept patrolling like nothing happened. I did this to two other guys who died and the other man just kept walking like nothing happened. and when is this going to start looking like the real new york? this is as generic a New York city as I've ever seen.

MLAA isn't as good as TSAA or TRAA or whatever it's called. Both make the image less sharp though.grendelrt said:

Just done this and it works, seems less blurry without a doubt in mp. Looks like it has the ac2 thing going on when it scales to 1080p that also added extra blur etc to the image in that res. Framerate seems a tad better also in mp having done this. Just a bit of a fuck on having to force the dash down to 720p to get it to work.

There's a good chance MLAA wasn't being applied properly. It's not a perfect implementation for all games.Always-honest said:

Can't log in with my existing mycrysis account. Don't tell me this is the same shit as with Crysis 1?
I am able to log in on the site. Downloaded the game of steam.
Any pointers on how to fix this?

No, it is right. That one section in particular has way more jaggies because of the shutters and fence on the left. In motion it's much cleaner and for the most part, it's less blurry. the default settings do a pretty amazing job at AA, it's just the ghosting that annoys me to no end.
Lostconfused said:
I had the exact same thing happen to me. I thought it was design decision and not a bug as well.
But basically you can press the melee key and rip it off the mount and carry it around. It's better used in that manner anyway. At that point you can use all your suit powers. So that is how I got around it.
While the game is quite different from first Crysis, this is soo much better than your Cods or Halos. Nanosuit combined with Mirror's Edge -lite travel capabilities and quite large sandbox areas really gives player the freedom of tackling each situation in unique way.
Game looks amazing in motion, screenshots don't do game justice. I really like playing with 360 controller on PC and it would be cool if there was 'controller only' option in server browser. Playing with controller online is fine, but kb+mouse definitely have big edge

I'm messing around in Catalyst and don't know what the shit I'm doing or what half the terms mean. I've never tweaked settings in Catalyst for fear of messing something up and then forgetting what I changed. GPU is an xfx 5770 1gb

To be honest. I think the first shot looks great. I don't know why folks would need to improve on that.

What the fuck I just lost almost 10000 nano points that I was saving for the Stealth enhance. HOW THE FUCK DO YOU LET A BUG LIKE THAT HAPPEN. I had been saving up for the last couple levels.

Framerate maybe?cyberheater said:
By the way, is the framerate better with only MLAA?
My rig is a 5870 with a i7 @ 3GHz and @ 1600x900 with Extreme, I have some pretty noticiable framerate drops sometimes. Not game breaking, but perceivable.

Also just noticed it's Catalyst version 10.9. I thought Steam was automatically updating, maybe I turned it off. Current version is 11.2...lol.

PS3 owners force it to 720p you wont regret it, looks alot better and seems to run smoother.

I guess it seemed like a minor bug that they didn't really care enough to fix before shipping the game. Maybe they will patch it at the same time as they patch in the DX11 support.Stallion Free said:
That's because the after one is at 75 FOV.grendelrt said:
This game obviously doesn't do FOV properly, what you want is horizontal? FOV like with Bad Company 2.
so at 1920x1200 or 16:10 you want like a 59 FOV.
Otherwise you get the fisheye effect like in that second picture, which is why it looks like shit.
Only read the last page so sorry if this has been addressed recently...
Have the PC servers been working today? I tried to get into games for over 2 hours last night and none of the ranked servers were working at all. Had some pretty epic lobby chats with a bunch of frustrated dudes that made for good entertainment but I'd really like to play the game tonight.

Hey guys, guess what?
Screenshots don't do this game justice.
It looks incredible in motion. Sure, the textures arent as high-res as Crysis 1, and it's a little blurry...
But in my opinion it's a much more enjoyable experience... because it actually runs well, and looks DAMN good.
Also, I beat both warhead and crysis 1, and i'm enjoying this game much more than both. It's linear, yeah, but broken up into arenas where you can freely fight how you want.
I think it works really well, and helps with the pacing and excitement. It's a good mix of freedom/pacing.
Please don't complain about the graphics until you've seen it in motion. Screenshots are often misleading for any game.

Well, that's a bummer.scitek said:
Strangely enough, my FPS usually drops happens inside confined places or big corridors, like the parking lot from the second (?) mission and the begining of the third or 4th mission just before you see the cutscene with the helicopter and 2 guys taking off.

Yeah, you have to collect them from the body. You can't wait too long or the cloud with the points will disappear. So don't go sniping things if you're looking for points because you might not get there in time. Sometimes they seem to get stuck in the ground and I couldn't collect them.evil solrac v3.0 said:
Even the bugs give points, which is almost a mini-game in itself chasing them down.

So I put in some time with SP (figured what the hell, why not). Started with normal. The AI is a mixed bag. Though they have eyes that see through everything I swear. I found that messing around with AI movement was amusing. They'd get stuck in bushes or run around small objects that have no meaning. Maybe I should of gone with a higher difficulty, but the overall sense is stealth, run, hide, regen. Repeat. This is of course the easy route to go. As someone mentioned before about vehicles, they're dumb and pointless. Get in, move about 20 feet forward. You're stuck. Move on.
The story is alright so far. I'm probably about 2 hours in. The set pieces are really good looking. Though when it comes to a gun fight straight on fight, the framerate really falls down hard. I'll probably work more on the SP this weekend. Suppose I should read the story with the first to get a better feel of who the hell is who and what they did in the past.

I was watching some pretty sweet footage on Youtube earlier. I'm starting to come around to the idea that this is a different type of experience for Crysis and anticipating it for different reasons.
I'm quite gutted I'm in the middle of building a new PC and won't be able to play it until next week at the earliest now
