Phœnīcius Infīnius VII Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Ever heard of Crysis 2? Or anything such as? Well if not then, that sucks ;P Well I own the 360 version and it's great! I've always wanted to play the original and I just downloaded it and it was pretty fricken sweet! Of course I sucked at it though 'cause I had no idea how to do anything, I'm terrible at PC games haha. I did actually end up figuring it all out though. If you've played any of the two Crysis games you should comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragnarok1945 Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 the biggest problem of them all with Crysis was that the requirements on the PC were WAY too damn high when it came out You only had to pay $50 for the game, but you have to spend $3500 more to get the top of the line PC to run it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnSlaUghT Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Well now a PC to play costs around $600. But soon you wouldn't need to, because I heard they're making it for the 360. I'll definitely get it if that's the case, since I want to play that before I play Crysis 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragnarok1945 Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 I still have my own upgrade to my PC before playing Crysis 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizzi Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Crysis is one of the only two games I've played that drops my PC down to like 30FPS and that's RIDICULOUS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragnarok1945 Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 what did you expect? They did some testing on Crysis, and the truth was, to run it at its absolute max potential, you needed a NASA supercomputer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phœnīcius Infīnius VII Posted July 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Yeah dude I read in Game Informer that one of the founders of CryTek made this game on a NASA Grade SuperComp and it was just a private thing, they then decided to release it exclusively for PC. In all honesty I reeeeaaaalllly hope that the rumors about Crysis for consoles is true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragnarok1945 Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Yeah Crytek made the EXACT same mistake all the way back in 2004, when they made Far Cry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kizzi Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 [quote name='ragnarok1945' timestamp='1310596519' post='5352687'] what did you expect? They did some testing on Crysis, and the truth was, to run it at its absolute max potential, you needed a NASA supercomputer [/quote] If by "absolute max potential" you mean 60FPS constant, you'd need a PC (theoretically) twice as good as mine. I hope I can get at least 45FPS constant (which isn't really noticably different from 60FPS) once I get another graphics card.

I wasn't necessarily suggesting it was a bad thing, the graphics are pretty amazing (although yeah slightly more optimisation couldn't hurt) and a lot of the time PC devs make graphics slightly ahead of what current PCs can usually run so that their game looks good as new even a year or two after release.

ragnarok1945 Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Yeah but the problem is with virtually all PC games, the second it comes out people expect they can play it on the max settings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This dude on YT was all like "The should make a Crysis 3, and exclusive for PC" and I'm thinking YTF would they be stupid enough to do that?
