finally started playing the game... really enjoying it... hehe was in a firefight with 7 or so koreans, i retreated back a little bit to come at em from another angle, and just looked back the way id come, just over the ridge and between the trees, suddenly i saw a mobile trailer go flying into the air before crashing down... one of em musta failed badly at throwing a grenade... just looked damn funny to see this trailer suddenly appear floating in the air, like it was a cartoon or something 
this game constantly blows me away when it comes to visuals... virtually every moment seems worthy of a screenshot.... just wish this game was released 2 years from now instead of last year, so that we could actually play the fuckin thing

For me it just means that I'll play the whole game again once I got the hardware that's necessary to play it with all the eye candy, and I'm sure I'll have even more fun than I had the first time through (on low-medium) thanks to crysis' freeform missions.
I'll just play it all totally different than I did last time and it'll be like a whole new game 
good screenshot chiv... the faces are so realistic.. especially in motion. |
Unfortunately there's nothing futuristic about the gameplay. It's uniformly dull. |

Tell me another fps that has 'futuristic gameplay' whatever the fuck that means. It has a hell of alot more gameplay innovation than 95% of the fps garbage out there. That's good enough for me. If you want some revolutionary new 'futuristic gameplay' in a fps, why don't you just freeze yourself until we have some radical new technology that lets you control the game with your dick or something. Until then, you might not be satisfied with whatever comes out, if even then.
Of course comments about dull gameplay/tech demo/buggy all = one thing...not able to run the game up to spec.

I think you misunderstood the context of my post. It was made in response to a glowing remark that Crysis is some kind of ahead-of-its-time goldmine just waiting to be unleashed with better hardware. That's simply not the case, in the event of ever running it at 100fps the only thing that's going to improve is the experience of playing what currently exists - and what currently exists (underneath all the gloss and admittedly impressive graphical doo-hickery) is nothing more than an updated 'FarCry'.
It has a linear run of the mill plot combined with linearly scripted and at times excruciatingly dumb artificial intelligence. The physics and graphics are first rate but they don't make a game exciting.
I don't know, I'd rather play the recent titles Call of Duty 4, Episode 2 or Portal singleplayer (and indeed I have) than try and convince myself that Crysis has anything to offer that something like Operation Flashpoint didn't already achieve. So when I say there's nothing futuristic about the gameplay it was merely a deadpan rebuke of the comments suggesting it was a sandpit of endless possibility just waiting to be unlocked. It isn't and it won't. That is unless someone mods it, and even then its about as likely they'll succeed as you responding to this comment and agreeing witih me

oh boy... like new games got so much better gameplay and incredible innovation.
advance in gaming = minor improvements on proven gameplay.
so yeah, crysis is like a game from the future. because 5 years from now, games will still have pretty much the same gameplay as they do now, and as they did 5 years ago.
crysis is not revolutionary in any way, but I sure had fun, which is what it's all about. no game ever pleases everyone so it's a pity that you don't like it, but that doesn't mean it sucks.

Again; your taking my comment out of context, I never originally brought up 'futuristic'.
I also never said it sucks, you're just taking a negative comment and running away with it because you clearly have some affection for the game. I found it dull but unlike Tom Cruise I don't consider myself an authority on what other people enjoy - I merely communicate my own opinion and if you agree, great, if you don't well that's no biggie as Crysis isn't actually a bad game so it's all subjective.

personally im not finding it dull, im quite enjoying it, though its not as 'exciting' as it COULD have been, therefore i doubt ill play this through again, except for a couple years in the future when i have the new nvidia 12800 card, and vista works properly, and i can finally max the game out...
every time im playing it, im enjoying it, but its not as addictive to me as, say, witcher was for example.. i dont need to go running back for 'just another quick hour, and THEN im done...'...
one thing i noticed... does anyone else feel like, even though its a 'go anywhere' concept, that it still feels pretty linear? i honestly felt that far cry gave me much more freedom. crysis feels more like a set of VERY large areas, not just one giant one... so i do kinda feel like im being guided more than i was in farcry.. on the one hand its good to lead players, on the other, it makes me feel a little more restrained which is a bad thing given that this is supposed to be a very openworld game... meh whatever. at the moment i say the game is very good. not excellent, but it really is very good.
finally, to describe overall what i think of crysis ill just say this...
i bought crysis, but i will NOT be buying its sequels... however, im VERY much looking forward to downloading them and cant wait till theyre done.

well then it appears you were taking my original post out of context, because I never said this:
| Quote: | | I think you misunderstood the context of my post. It was made in response to a glowing remark that Crysis is some kind of ahead-of-its-time goldmine just waiting to be unleashed with better hardware. |
Because what I said was that I will play it again when I got better hardware because I want to see all the eye candy, and that it will be fun to play through again because of the open mission structure (I don't have to take the exact same path again)
I never said that Crysis becomes a better game with better hardware. Sure, it looks better, but the game is obviously the same. So stop that "taking my stuff out of context" shit if you're doing it yourself. lol

It was the same in Farcry, open areas in a linear sequence. I'm hoping Farcry 2 will deliver what Crysis has not in this regard and provide us with a true sequel.

I believe it wil
Knowing it's ubisoft montreal who's creating this we can expect a great game... Tropical island are boring anyway, just good to lay down and relax with a coctail.
The invironment of Farcry 2 is alot more original and has all the ingredients for great gameplay.
BTW, I hope they put in a nice litte easter egg with that guy from "the gods must be crazy"... Imaging, somewere a coke machine, buy coke, drink it, throw away and hit that guy on his head, he picks it up and starts running with it till the edge of the world |

anyone know if you can shoot elephants in this game?
one thing that i really like about this game, is the immersiveness... by that i mean actually seeing yourself physically take out a compass, or fold out a map, stuff like that... or when you get wounded too much, you see someone run in and pull u to saftey... stuff like that... i think it'll be a great ride and im looking forward too it... gameplay looks fun, lets hope its engaging enough and isnt just a bunch of gimmicks.

I remember reading that some of the optional quests would revolve around hunting. So my guess is that if there are elephants in the game you can shoot them.
Imagine using the fire mechanic to funnel the animals to a kill zone or trap, that would be awesome.

Finished the game yesterday and I don't see why this game is so hyped. Story and gameplay is mediocre at best and the performance is ultra-crap. My rating is ***/*****.
I enjoyed Far Cry much more than this. If this is the future of PC gaming this future can happen without me.

Crysis is not really a game, its more of a engine demo that you can play. There is a difference .)
I havent played very mutch so i shouldent comment to mutch but the little i played it seemed kinda stiff. But it might be better, gonna try it more once i get some better specs.

Why are you people so surprised that you don't like it? Ok, so you don't like it, so what. Surely it's not the first game you don't like that other people like.
It's just a shooter, nothing more, nothing less. I thought it was a good game, I had fun. You didn't, that's fine, but crysis is not a bad game, just like it's not an awesome game.
And the game is not hyped. it was hyped, then it came out and people found out that it runs like shit on their pcs, and now there are just as many people bashing it as there are people who like it.

I'm sorry, english is not my native language, maybe I should have used other words.
What I meant was that it was hyped like hell pre-release, but the hype stopped
immediately when it came out and people found out that it needs a pc from the future to be
played with all the eye candy on.
That was in response to Weedo who said he doesn't understand why the game is so hyped.
It's not hyped anymore, there are very very few people who say that Crysis is GOTY material.
