Anyone still play Crysis Wars online? It's not bad. The original Crysis online was a major clusterfuck with rampant hackers, things have obviously gotten better.
Though I do find the set up annoying with having to constantly turn off and change your equipment set up upon your death. Every time I spawn why do I spawn with the fucking SMG with the laser sight on? It just screams shoot me when I try to cloak!

Crysis was my GOTY that year... and I am still thinking of upgrading my machine to play it again with better settings.
I wish that other studio that did Warhead put out another expansion... I want more! There are so few PC titles that take advantage of what the PC can do... Crysis has been the most expensive game ever for me. Thankfully it does help me work when modeling/animating in 3D.
Their new engine looks really optimized so I can't wait to see what they come up with next.

Yea I'm looking to upgrade my video card, and as soon as I do I'm replaying crysis and cranking up everything for a visual orgasm.

Well I just beat it and... wow.
Wow. I played on Delta, one of the most ridiculous experiences I've had this generation.
Nothing graphics wise will ever touch this game, ever. Until CE3 comes out of course.

Hey guys. I've got some questions. I recently upgraded from a 9600GT to a HD 5850. I wanted some eye candy. So while at Target I noticed Crysis Maximum Edition in their bin for 19.99 score right?
Well, I get home and install it auto scans to tell me that I should run it on "High" settings. Great! Just what I wanted. Boot up FRAPS (because I always do) then boot up the game. Once my feet hit the beach I'm lucky to be pulling 10 FPS. What the hell?
Here are my specs:
Intel q6700 OC'd to 3.1 mhz
4 GB DDR-2 RAM
Asus HD 5850 vid card
650 GB WD HDD
OCZ 750w power supply
Some generic DVD RW drive
How in the heck am I only getting 10 frames per second? Please tell me there is something I can do to improve the FPS. Please don't say lower the settings I've tried with everything on medium also still same frame rate.
Help I want to play this game... very much!

Have you tried updating the graphics drivers on your card?
EDIT: yeah, patch the game to 1.2 as well, that should help improve performance.

Change the shortcut to point to (64-bit example):
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis\Bin64\Crysis.exe" -dx9
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis\Bin64\Crysis.exe" -dx9

Updating to 1.2 did the trick I'm pulling 50+ fps with vsync enabled now. I should have been smart enough to realize that a almost 2 year old game would have some patches waiting for me. I guess I was just too excited to start playing.
Thanks for the help gaf.

So I had the game running great ^^^ see post above. I played for about an hour again all smooth. I turned my pc off and went to dinner came back to play some more and AGAIN having the same issue as before I'm getting 5 FPS.
Please someone help me. I knew it was going to be a slippery slope going from nividia to ati. I soooo wanted to be wrong.
What can I do gaf? (for full info see the posts i've made just a little earlier)

For those looking for graphics configs I'll share the one I use:

Here's the thread on incrysis for more info:

I've been using this guys configs since the original crysis and the results are insane. I'll basically run the game on very high, 1280 x 1024 and get 40 fps steady. My sysems specs are a Amd Athlon 4200+ (Overclocked to 2.6 Ghz) 2 GB of Ram and an 8800 GT.

Some stuff does, some stuff doesn't...well the last level in crysis looks better than the last level in warhead... Overall crysis is the better game, but Warhead is a good expansion pack. The difference in production values are pretty large though. Cutscenes in warhead don't look that great, especially some of the character models.
The jungle level with the rain looks amazing, as do some of the later ice levels....train level has been surpassed in my opinion...by another game
Crysis is awesome though

Hey all - I'm getting back into PC gaming (including Crysis), and I'm curious how to know what mouse/keyboard GAF uses for PC gaming from their couch.
I've got a wireless (blue tooth) mouse and keyboard, but I'm still having trouble getting comfortable. Is there a mat or stand or something that people use to make using a mouse/keyboard more usable?

It's pretty far back - I don't think anything with wires will work.
The phantom keyboard looks promising. Anyone here have experience with it?

Well I'm playing it for the second time on Delta and I'm stuck, wtf...?
HELP!!!!!!!
I just met up with the doctor that freezes to death and now I'm battling the 5 power suit-enemies. I've killed them but it still says "Secure the area" etc, the helicopter won't come! I've loaded previous saves and everything!
HELP!!!!!!!

Real disapointment when they announced that
So much promise beforehand of lots of support, and there were still things that needed fixing up (DX10 reckoning crashing to hell).Ogs said:Real disapointment when they announced that
They sold over a million copies, made a profit, bitched about piracy, then abandonned support for their game. What a great developer.
They better get their act together for Crysis 2.

Yup, pretty sure theyve reached 2 million now (they reported ages ago it was around 1.6/7 million sold). 2 million fans given the finger.
It annoyed me quite a bit there winging, when i heard it hold sold 1 million copies i thought it was a triumph. A game that most saw as only playable on the most expensive of rigs, a new IP, and PC only, still managed to sell that many, yet they bitched about it.

So looking at the Nanosuit 2.0 in the back of Game Informer... what the heck this is supposed to impress folks? Can't believe they are marketing the game this way when the suit looks no different, if anything it seems less complex looking and just simpler overall.
