Please post all the Far Cry and Crysis
Note: Only PC related posts, no PS2 or XBOX360.
You can ask all the questions from console command to ways of improving graphic and performance.
I am a big Freak of Far Cry and I've been researching on the console commands. I will periodically be telling you about the latest mods and the good maps and also about the update.
You might require the registration to various Far Cry website to download anything , but i'll provide you the direct links.
Also post topics regarding CRYSIS.

Did you people who are owning GeForce 6 or 7 series of cards can enable HDR Rendering in the game. But you must have 1.33 patch installed and antialiasing turned off.
Just press ~ to bring down the console and type \r_HDRRendering 2
the value can be 1 - 11 but 2 and 7 looks best and 2 has better performance.
Also those who wants o play the game with HDR Rendering with anti aliasing with all the antialiasing on you have to install pre beta patch.

What people? No one has interest in Far Cry which is one of the best games of the decade till now. If you have finished the game and feel that its over than you are wrong. There are thousands of maps and mods available which are extremely intresting and adventurous and also dangerous.
I suppose many of you like Far Cry. Look at the Counter Strike Thread, it is just so big and still farcry thread has 3 posts ( excluding mine)

ionicsachin

In the Crysis forum they were talking abt SLIs of high end for smooth gameplay. But also they were saying that a 1 GB RAM and 6600GT with work without the following things:
Soft Shadows.
Volumetric Clouds.
Direct X 10 Features
The HDR Rendering will be smooth but if you put Real Time Ambient Light than the HDR will be slow.
But still what you get with 6600Gt and 1 GB RAM is
Dynamic Day and Night Sun Cycle.
Motion Blur.
Depth of Field
Fully Interactive Environment
Shader Model 3 full support and lots of other features.
The Motion Blur and ambient features are also included in X-Isle mod of Far Cry. You can check out the Demo in the single player map pack1.1:-

All this is speculation. Why dont u w8 till the actual sys reqs are announced .
However looking at the graphics the 6600 gt will certainly be the bare minimum

I wana ask abt d cheats of FARCRY.
I hit '~' key n d console windows appears while playing d game.But i type all d cheats of God Mode,All Ammo,All Weapons etc. but none of them even works!
Secondly,I replace d file 'DevMode.LUA' to get access in Cheats but nothing works at all.Whenever i type '-DEVMODE' at d end of target file,it says that 'd path is wrong' :(
PLEASE tell me how do i use CHEATS in this game...I search n google for it but only these two methods i found n both failed for me!!! THX FOR UR PATIENCE :lol:
ionicsachin
01-06-2006, 10:25 AM
after replacing the devmode.lua thing give thae following extension to the shortucut.
"Path of farcry folder\Bin32\FarCry.exe" "-devmode"
It didnt work for you as u might ot have seperated "-devmode" by a space.
Also see if there is no " " for the first part in shortcut properties than use only -devmode instead of "-devmode".
Check and than say me.

i have tried hdr on farcry , strangely i see no difference changing the values to increase decrease HDR rendering , i see only the hdr on and off difference .
one more thing , if u enable HDR while AA enabled on a nvidia card then whole level will get filled up with water , strange . seems like tsunami hit the shores of the island :p
ionicsachin
01-06-2006, 04:43 PM
Actually the HDR Rendering is in its beta versions. It has been tested succesfully only on one game till now and thats NFS MW. There are minor un notable differences between HDR 1 - 11 but the thing is that as per the experts of Gamerspot.com and also from official website they say that 7 looks the best and 2 has better performance.
If you enable AA the water comes on to top. For this bug there is Far Cry patch 1.4 under construction. but for 6X00 and 7X00 card owner's an unofficial pre release patch is released by which you can play with all the AA on and HDR on without tsunami. The link for the pre release patch is:-

Dude what are u talking about , nfsmw doesn't even use HDR , and u say it has been tested successfully .
Instead of using HDR, EA chose to implement "overbright," which simulates some of the light bloom effects without being too overpowered.
Source (http://pc.ign.com/articles/664/664225p1.html)
And the games using HDR are Oblivian,AOE 3, Juiced , Tomb Raider Legend,Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter ,Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory ,etc.

Thanks man i didnt have that info.
But the HDR is surely in its beta stage.
My information was after release of Far Cry 1.33 pre release patch. At that time these all game were absent.
Anyways sorry man.

First off, download the cheat enabler from http://www.actiontrip.com/cheats/farcry.phtml and unpack the DevMode.lua file to the main FarCry directory overwritting other file (make a backup of it!).
Now you need to modify your desktop shortcut. Right click on the Far Cry icon on your desktop, select properties and a new screen should pop up. Add the " -DEVMODE" parameter (without the quotes) at the end of the target field so it looks similar to this:
"C:\Program Files\UBISOFT\Crytek\Far Cry\Bin32\FarCry.exe" -DEVMODE
Click Apply to save the changes and run the game using that shortcut. All levels will be unlocked and you'll be able to use the following buttons:
[F1] - Toggles first/third-person camera modes
[F2] - Move to next checkpoint
[F3] - Spawn point
[F4] - Toggle no-clip mode
[F5] - Default speed
[F9] - Save current position
[F10] - Load current position
[F11] - Toggle extra information
[=] - Increase speed
[-] - Decrease speed
[BackSpace] - Toggle God mode (if it doesn't work for you use the God mode cheat from below)
o - Gives 999 ammo
p - Gives all weapons
On that page you can find even more cheats
But play the game without cheats than yo'll enjoy it.

For tarey_g:- Look here they clearly said that HDR is in beta stage
http://www.elite*******s.com/page.php?pageid=7594&head=1&comments=1
Though at link mentioned by you it is given but HDR and bloom and overbright have the same technology behind them.
tarey_g
02-06-2006, 05:18 PM
Dude , i read that page . The hdr rendering thing 'for farcry' is in beta stage not HDR as a whole is in beta stage.
Normal map compression and HDR support are both currently in the beta stages, and thus need to be enabled from the console or command-line shortcuts.
and HDR bloom may produce similar(not same) results , but HDR) lighting is a form of lighting effect which dynamically alters based on the way it interacts with various objects and surfaces, as well as the environment in which the light source is portrayed.. Bloom is a lighting effect alters the appearance of lighting in an attempt to make it seem more realistic. However unlike HDR, bloom is less dynamic and less realistic. Bloom is a lot less graphically intensive than HDR lighting.

^^ LOL. By the way, I doubt even on 7800 GTX to play Crysis smooooothly, only 7900 GTX 512 MB can run it efficiently for sure. :)
Acc to gamespot forums, the E3 demo of Crysis was done on a 7800 GTX SLi system with Directx10 emulation mode (under Dx 9.0) and resulted in 8-16 FPS will full Dx10 glory. So, to play it with full glory.. be ready to upgrade to the Dx10 complaint nvidia G80s and Ati R600s with Windows Vista running. Though Directx9.0 is suported in the game.

The times which are coming ahead are really high end. 6 series of GeForce will soon go into oblivion. Before 256-512MB RAM was considered good. Now they talk abt 2GB RAM. I suppose games will start coming directly on mini Hard disks because of enormous size.
Well most of the Indian games Freaks use 5950U, 6600GT, 6800GT. They will definitelry have to turn off all the eye candy and play in the "good" old(comparative to Crysis) Far Cry kind of graphics.

03-06-2006, 03:22 PM
Personally,I would rather pass with Far Cry's HDR capabilities as it is better left alone without any HDR.It has ample potential to render beautiful light emulation.The thing I noticed when HDR values were increased in Far Cry was the Sun light became a bit wierd.On a whole the HDR concept hasn't yet clicked with everyone as a major leap in natural light emulation.Even in Seriosu Sam 2's engine the light fractions were rendered exotically without the slightest bit of HDR setting added to it.:cool:
ionicsachin
03-06-2006, 03:51 PM
allwyndlima is right. The HDR in Far Cry is just having one plus point : - Improved contrast in water and all.
But the negative effects are many. If you get under a tree shadow and look down, everything around you becomes excessive bright.
Many places the sea sand becomes very bright that we cant even see sand texture on it.
Also HDR doubles loading time and halves the FPS.

From the 14 Min Real Time gameplay video CAM print (http://incrysis.com/), I conclude that CRYSIS will posses the most difficult gameplay mode any FPS has ever seen. Apart from that, the fact tht the gameplay will dynamically vary each time the same mode is playd !! Extreme AI, Dense Jungles, Extreme Realistic Environments coupled with dynamic gameplay .... man if this game does not feature a QUICK SAVE mode unlike FarCry, then I guess how much time of the players will this game consume to finish !!! :-o :) :)
It took me almost 3 months to finish Far Cry in highest Difficulty Mode w/o ne types of cheats !!! :(

Hey man, i think the pc u use is low on physics ir the processor is slow. Or u might have been playing a pirated version which cannot be updated.
Far Cry is the very best till F.E.A.R. in Physics despite of the fact that there was nothing like Physx card at the time of Far Cry's creation.

I am not quite sure of this but I think that HAVOK is only a PhysFX engine ... and not related to AI !!! Please clarify me if i am wrong !!!
sysrq
24-07-2006, 09:36 PM
ok!
Havok does provide solutions for "continuous blending of game-physics with a broad range of powerful animation"
so gameAI relates to physics engines, any how game play and satisfaction does combine them,
perhaps some time,
bad AI+bad physFX sucks,
good AI+bad physFX gives frustration,
bad/avg AI+good physFX leave u unsatisfied,
good AI+good physFX "good gameplay;challange;satisfaction"
also a quote from wiki:
Since game AI is centered on appearance of intelligence and good gameplay, it is very different in approach to traditional AI; hacks and cheats are acceptable and, in many cases, the computer abilities must be toned down to give human players a sense of fairness, especially on FPS games, where perfect movement and aiming is beyond human skill.
that is the reason tech_mastermind feeling "lag" with npc's in FarCry.Cause AI is tonned down intentionally.

and for humans right! btw there is the existence of AI in our world that can defeat
topclass chess players, also as i quoted b4 gameAI is very defferent than traditional AI, as far developers are concerned ,it's not processing power or lack coding knowledge bound them, it is human skill,ability[some time development process] that bound them as they want to make u feel that u r not cheated by pc's processing power, so some flaws are left behind.
so ignoring them preferrable!

FPS with a joystick is the lamest thing i can ever think of , thats why i dont ever play FPS's on consoles , FPS are made to be played with a keyboard and mouse , consoles use auto targetting and other stuff to overcome the aming flaws . on the other hand games like WWE,football,prince of persia and similar are best played with a joystick.

Hey, I am stuck in one level. I am playing in the 4th highest difficulty setting. I am in the level after factory (I do not remember the name) but at the beginning of the level, I am only with the M4 assault rifle and 10 rounds of bullets and scores of mutants and fatboys around. I simply cannot escape their attention as I think the best strategy would be not to engage them but run like hell.
Can anyone guide me?

Amd Athlon XP 2500 or up
512-1GB RAM
Geforce 6600 or better
1024*768 low to med or low
AMD 64 @ 2GHz or higher
1GB RAM or more
Geforce 6800 better, 6600GT comes close
1024*768 Med or higher than med
AMD 64 @ 2-2.2GHz
1-2GB RAM
Geforce 7600GT level or 6800Ultra
1024*768 High to max
AMD 64 @ 2.4GHz or higher, dual core prefered
2GB RAM
Geforce 7800GT/7900GT or better
1024*768/1280*1024 MAX
AMD 64, atleast 2.4-2.6GHz, dual core should give huge benefits
2GB RAM or more
Radeon X1900XT or better
all this is without AA. and may or may not be with AF either.

I Totally agree with ionicsachin about FarCry being one of the best games of this decades. Here is a small tip that'll work as good as a cheat code (I fiddled around with it for some time as I couldn't complete the game even after a month...please don't laugh...I'm almost 40 years old so I'm not as good you young folk at these games).
Go to FarCry>Scripts>AI>Characters>Personalities and than remove any of the notpads there and paste it outside the FarCry game folder where you can remember so you can replace it when you want it.
I removed mutantrear notepad and a few others related to the mutants and none of the mutants attacked me in the game but they still present in the game...same goes for the dangerous invisible mutants.
You can do this to get a hang of the area and than replace the notepads to make the game exciting with all the deddly mutant and the rest.

During the first fight use tha gun with that 40ammo per clip nd use their secondary fire mode. The other guns explosion is more powerful but slow loading. Clear everybody with grenades. Shooting at heads gives an instant kill.try that.
When fighting with Kreigor shoot the main guards first nd start stooting at him continuously nd dun wait for reload. Take another gun nd whans clips over swotch to secondary nd give a blast. That should work.
This trick worked till the second last difficulty level. but can't even reach there with the greatest diff level.

Oh god!!!!!!!! How could you people play the same game all over again at different difficulty levels. I loved FarCry but still couldnt complete it even once. The reason is I dont have enough time but then even if I had, I'd find it really boring to go all over again. For me, once is enough. There are many other title to take up.

Crysis Updated Impressions - Dynamic Environments and Adapting to the Cold
Crysis is a game that will continually force you to adapt to changing conditions, as you'll battle in steamy jungles as well as brutally cold environments.
http://www.picfury.com/1w/931665_20060328_screen004-1-th.jpg (http://www.picfury.com/1w/931665_20060328_screen004-1.html)
Crysis Feature Preview - Building a New Kind of First-Person Shooter Story
Crysis may have cutting-edge graphics, but developer Crytek is also looking to deliver a story that's just as advanced.
http://www.picfury.com/1w/931665_20061113_screen002-1-th.jpg (http://www.picfury.com/1w/931665_20061113_screen002-1.html)
Perhaps the most common question revolving around Crysis isn't when this eagerly awaited first-person shooter is going to ship or even whether it will appear on the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3. Instead, gamers everywhere are wondering what sort of PC they'll need to run the game. And it's not hard to understand why Crysis has everyone thinking about hardware upgrades. Ever since it was revealed at the Game Developers Conference, gamers have been amazed by the cutting-edge visuals in Crysis. So when we recently visited developer Crytek's offices in Frankfurt, Germany, we got a chance to find out more about the game's technology, as well as what kind of machine you'll need to run the game.
Crysis will offer impressive graphics that make good use of modern PC technology.
Crysis will be Crytek's second game, after 2004's acclaimed Far Cry, and the company is aiming to ratchet up its storytelling, as well as its technologies. The story revolves around an alien invasion of Earth, with the end of humanity as we know it hanging in the balance. This is a far cry from Far Cry's tale of science run amok on a remote tropical island. Still, Crysis does feature a tropical island, and it serves as the setting for the game. After a mysterious meteor crashes on the island, your special forces team is deployed to investigate. However, the North Koreans have arrived first, so you'll battle not only them but also the aliens, once the extraterrestrial threat is revealed. The early screenshots and videos of Crysis are no doubt impressive and, in some ways, jaw dropping. They show combat taking place in an incredibly realized tropical paradise. More importantly, the videos show things that have never been seen before in a game, such as how the individual leaves of a plant will bend if someone or something passes by. "We tried to make everything more cinematic and more realistic," said Cevat Yerli, Crytek president and CEO.
Crytek has always been a company on the cutting edge. As we noted in our prior preview, Crytek's roots are in developing one of the first tech demos for Nvidia's GeForce graphics cards, and the company has been working with shaders and other advanced graphics features as long as anyone in the industry. Yet just as important is how the development team works together to solve technical and artistic issues.
"Our technology team works very closely with our production team, so they are not only aware of what the future is, but they all understand what is the real dilemma of pipelines, tools, and production issues," Yerli said. For example, members of the technology team are often assigned temporarily to the production side of the office, where they can work closely together to solve issues that crop up during development. The company also does a lot of internal training, workshops, tutorials, and videos to get everyone up to speed on the latest technology. "Technology is one thing," Yerli said, "but to get the team to understand technology is another."
Crysis will let Crytek show off everything that it's been working on over the past two years. The game will feature not only state-of-the-art graphics, but also advanced physics, animation, lighting, and more. A lot of the technology incorporated into Crysis is aimed at increasing the cinematic nature of the experience, as well as creating more realistic gameplay. For instance, with deformable vegetation, it will be possible to see leaves bend and sway. The movement of foliage in the distance may reveal an otherwise undetected enemy. All objects will have physical properties that can change drastically throughout the story. The tropical jungle, for instance, will flash freeze, and suddenly everything in the frozen environment will shatter apart.
http://www.picfury.com/1w/78020pc24-1-th.jpg (http://www.picfury.com/1w/78020pc24-1.html)
Yerli explained the full range of visual tools that Crytek is working with. Crysis' camera technology will make extensive use of motion blur, so if you spin around quickly to face an enemy, the images onscreen will blur. The lighting system makes use of depth of field so that if you focus on an object nearby, objects in the distance will blur. The game uses a new indirect lighting system that tries to model the way light and color react in the real world. Lights will "bounce" off of colors and interact to create more lifelike lighting conditions. And, of course, Crysis will take advantage of high dynamic range lighting to create more realistic light, in general.
Crytek will do something very interesting with color, as well. "We manipulate color depending on the intensity," Yerli said. So if you're in an action-packed situation, the colors in the game may become grittier or more saturated to reflect that adrenalin is flowing through your system and your senses are more alive.
Fortunately for this vehicle, DirectX 10 isn't here yet.
Yerli was able to give us an idea of what kind of hardware Crysis will support. Keep in mind that these are by no means the official requirements, as the game is still in development. Still, this gives us an idea of what kind of technologies the game will take advantage of, and it may give you an idea of where you currently stand in terms of being able to run the game.
"Crysis will feature out-of-the-box 32-bit, 64-bit, DirectX 9, DirectX 10, and multithreading support," he said. That's a lot of technical jargon, so we'll go over each point one by one. The important thing to keep in mind is that you won't have to worry about configuring all of these settings when you install the game, as Crysis will automatically configure itself based on what kind of hardware you have.
http://www.picfury.com/1w/931665_20061113_screen001-1-th.jpg (http://www.picfury.com/1w/931665_20061113_screen001-1.html)
We've seen a fair bit of Crysis recently, what with our visit to Crytek's offices in Frankfurt and everything. What we hadn't seen anything of until today, though, was the game's multiplayer component, which we dutifully waited in line for at the 2006 Games Convention, after a meeting in which Crytek showed us some of the recently implemented features.
In case you haven't been following our previous coverage of the game, Crysis (like Far Cry before it) is set on a beautiful tropical island where things aren't nearly as peaceful as they might first appear. In Far Cry mutants were the problem. In Crysis it's North Koreans...oh, and aliens who travel down to Earth on some kind of asteroid and flash-freeze a good portion of the game's tropical paradise in the process. The secret to success in Crysis, at least according to the senior game designer that we met with, is that you must "adapt to survive." This not only means that you should carefully plan your attacks on enemies rather than running in with guns blazing, but also refers to the fact that both your weapons and your high-tech nanosuit are customizable.
Tinkering with your nanosuit's energy-consumption settings, for example, will give you an opportunity to augment your speed, your strength, or your armor (which also determines your health-regeneration rate--there are no first-aid kits in the game) at the expense of other attributes for extended periods of time. Weapons in Crysis are even more customizable, since most of them boast interchangeable scopes, silencers, grenades, and ammo types, among other things. All of these customizations can be handled without interrupting the action in any significant way, and we were told that with practice you could even customize your weapon in the middle of a gunfight.
When changing a weapon's configuration on the move, you'll see the gun held up at an angle on the screen, and all of the components that can be swapped out will be highlighted so that you can click on them with your mouse cursor. The most exciting optional extra that we got to see during our single-player demo was the tactical ammo, which lodges itself under the skin of your target without alerting them until you choose to detonate it. You'll be able to fire off multiple rounds before pushing the button, so although shooting a guard out in the open and only letting him die when he's concealed from his colleagues might be useful, shooting the whole crowd and then watching them fall to the ground simultaneously promises to be downright entertaining.
The level that dominated our single-player demonstration was set in a jungle location that you'll explore when you're about a third of the way through the game. North Korean enemies were scattered all over the expansive locale, and in the distance, the sphere of freezing ice surrounding the alien asteroid (or vessel?) was clearly visible. The Crytek employee demonstrating the game had a god mode turned on and so, because he was invincible, he spent most of his time running and gunning like a madman (to show off how impressively destructive the whole environment is), rather than giving any thought to his visibility and audibility as you would if you were attempting to sneak up on enemies. Trees fell to the ground convincingly and vehicles on which every component sustained damage individually became fireballs shortly after their fuel tanks were hit.
http://www.picfury.com/1w/78008pc12-1-th.jpg (http://www.picfury.com/1w/78008pc12-1.html)
The first-person shooter genre could be in for a very big wake-up call when Crysis debuts. The sophomore effort from Germany's Crytek is one of the biggest games on the horizon, thanks to the impressive screen shots released thus far and the reputation the company has earned from the superb Far Cry. As we covered in our last preview, the designers at Crytek want to create a game with a story that's as flexible and advanced as the cutting-edge graphics engine that powers it. In other words, you'll be able to go through the game in different ways instead of experiencing a rigidly linear storyline like that found in so many other first-person shooter campaigns. However, another goal of the design team is to create a believable and dynamic environment to battle in. The graphics in Crysis aren't just there for eye candy, as the game's physics engine means that everything behaves like it should, even when the conditions change drastically. Please note: this preview story may contain minor spoilers of some of the story elements in Crysis.
When you first arrive on the island, you'll find a jungle paradise like the one depicted in this image.
In Crysis, you'll play as Jake Dunn, a member of a US Special Forces team that is sent to a remote Pacific island after a mysterious object lands on it. Unfortunately, the North Korean military secures the island first, so your mission will be to infiltrate and investigate what's going on. However, you'll quickly discover that events will spiral dangerously out of control, as the meteor is actually an extraterrestrial spacecraft full of aliens that don't want us to take them to our leader. Instead, they want to wipe us out.
When you first arrive on the island, you'll discover a tropical paradise not unlike that seen in Far Cry. Giant palms sway in the wind, the sun burns brightly in the sky, and the jungle can be used for concealment from the North Korean soldiers who patrol the island. The first chapter of the game will require you to participate in what could best be described as guerilla warfare. You'll recon the island, choosing to ambush or bypass North Korean forces. This part of the game should feel quite a bit like Far Cry, Crytek's first game. Far Cry also had you crawling around a jungle while ambushing (and being ambushed by) foes, and one of the cool features about that game was that you could choose how you navigated through the gigantic levels. You could blitz your way across and engage enemies in a running firefight, or you could take the long way around and remain invisible.
This all changes when the aliens finally announce their presence by flash freezing the island. The designers told us that they went through hundreds of designs for the single alien race, with the goal of creating something truly alien. While the aliens themselves remain a mystery for now, we do know that their goal is to turn Earth into a frozen world, and that's why they're messing with the global weather system. Their first step, however, is to freeze the island that you'll be fighting on.
http://www.picfury.com/1w/931665_20060927_screen003-1-th.jpg (http://www.picfury.com/1w/931665_20060927_screen003-1.html)
Paradise turns into frozen paradise in the game, and you've got to adapt or die.
In a lot of games, "frozen" usually means that the ground textures are painted white instead of brown to convey the sense of snow. Otherwise, not much else has changed in those games. That's not going to be the case in Crysis. Thanks to the game's impressive physics engine, the cold will have significant effects on the gameplay, as well as the tactics that you'll want to employ to survive.
For one, the lush jungle that you battled in during the first chapter in the game is now frozen. That changes the properties of the vegetation, and branches will no longer bend if you brush by them. Previously, you could detect an enemy by observing how the vegetation in the distance reacts to their passage, but now that won't be the case. Even worse, frozen objects have a tendency to shatter, so the environment is suddenly a lot more brittle--and harder to sneak around in because of the noisy shattering ice--than before.
You'll also discover that some of your weapons and equipment won't work as well as before, since mechanical items tend to have problems when dealing with brutally cold temperatures. This may require you to adapt your tactics to using what works. Thankfully, the aliens, being cold-lovers, have an aversion to fire, so it makes sense that you'll want to rely on incendiary weapons to take them on.
Crysis is scheduled to ship this winter.
http://www.picfury.com/1w/931665_20060927_screen002-1-th.jpg (http://www.picfury.com/1w/931665_20060927_screen002-1.html)
The aliens use cold as a weapon, as well. They may attempt to ice you with their freeze ray. You'll become frozen in place if you're hit by the ray, and you'll see the ice build up around your body. Thankfully, you have your state-of-the-art nano suit to help you break out of the ice. The nano suit can be configured to your tactical needs. If you need to move faster, you can dump power into the suit's speed to get a boost. If you need more strength to move a heavy object, lift a heavy weapon, or shatter ice, then direct the suit's power to augment your strength. This flexibility means that you can tackle different tactical situations in a number of ways. You could stick around and fight it out or try and flee to escape your pursuers.
Of course, your tactics will have to change again when you get to the final part of the game, which takes place in zero gravity. This happens after you battle your way to the aliens' vessel and discover that it has some exotic properties. Unfortunately, that's all Crytek was willing to tell us, as the rest of the final chapter is remaining a tightly kept secret for now. Still, it's clear that Crysis is a game that will keep you on your toes, as your tactics will need to adapt to all the different environments the game throws at you. Crysis is scheduled to ship this winter.

It's going to be hard to port crysis to ps3 or xbox 360 because the game has huge ram requirements.Both the consoles do not have enough ram.The result was also visible in game Gears of war for the xbox 360 where the characters would constantly had skinning issues.And sorry for my thread over crysis.

No matter its paid or whateve , noway in the world someone can provide a demo of crysis at this time , developers have released no such thing . If something (like tech demo) had leaked it wud be all over internet, you dont need to visit paid sites for that.

@crystal_pup
is 256 ur total memory or the shared memory for IGP? If u have 256 shared along with 768~1GB or even 512 MB extra(without being shared) then u can play on lowest settings. The perfomance is greately influenced by CPU also for Crysisas it doesn't require Agiea Physx Card and all physics are done on GPU nd CPU.
The min req are nvidia 6200 with 128MB dedicated with 2.4Ghz Intel or AMD 64 3000+ with atleast 512 MB mem and 6GB for installation.

@crystal_pup
sure. u can play the game as uve a decent proccy nd ram. U have to disable most visuals but can apply more CPU intense effects like Physics, water effects etc.
Many HD videos are out there for free. We can make ourself invisible to aliens(heat sensing) by freezing our own suit surface but still our body remains warm and throw a vehicle by charging our suit or even explode and causing shockwave to some distance knockin/damaging nearby enemies. Our suit can even absorb/cancel ambient noise while walkin through dried leaves or forest in trade of suits bettery charge.
Hardly wait for the game.
Gonna overclock every system component to play the game@1280x960 max.

Darthvader
11-05-2007, 09:14 PM
although Bioshock is describes as a shooter its actualy a genre buster
IGN AU: At various times in its development, the game has been described as an RPG, a shooter, a sandbox game and everything in between. It's obviously one of those new-fangled genre-mashers. In your words, describe the gameplay mix for us - is it mostly blasting? Much puzzle solving?
Jon Chey: Actually, this is pretty simple: BioShock is a shooter. It's true that it is doing things that no other shooter has done before, and that gets people confused about what genre it is. It's funny how genres work. They certainly help people figure out what games are and help them decide whether or not to pick something up and try it out. But at the same time, they often act like straightjackets. Developers get lazy and just follow conventions. I mean, why does every shooter have to go in a straight line from where you enter the level to where you leave?

I don't know why people go on harping about the AI of fear. I mean i played extraction point and honestly the AI wasn't that great. maybe cuz i don't have a very good system. but even with a bad system, i found a lot of flaws. especially in the first lvl where u enter the church and that guy from the previous fear is there and u have to kill all those soldiers of his. i mean i crouched behind a pew and the soldiers kept on shooting in a straight line. i just ran up to them from the side and killed em quite easily.
BTW- can someone post a torrent for far cry- i bought it, played half and lost it when i shifted my house, nd i dont wanna buy it again. so please? i know this is not the place to talk about piracy and illegal games so can u email me bout it at karmanyaaggarwal@gmail.com ?

EA's new Crysis website has launched today. The media section features already seen trailers and screenshots, however there is a nice wallpaper featuring the Nano Suit (and also the Crysis box art). Crysis has also been added to the EA Forums. It is very likely that the site's content will expand as the release date draws closer.

Whoa.. just read this article from gamespot.. an interview of Crytek president Cevat Yerli about Crysis... look at the quote... :o
Here: http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/crysis/news.html?sid=6175656&tag=topslot;title;2&om_act=convert&om_clk=topslot
CY: At E3, we were running on a [GeForce] 8800 video card and a dual-core Intel [CPU]with 4 gigabytes of RAM at very high settings. Not the highest, though! Most of the time, it was running smoothly.
Notable points: "NOT THE HIGHEST !!!" (even at 4 GB RAM)
"MOST OF THE TIME"... well lagging fps even with a 8800 .... hmmm.. seems 9xx Sli with 4 GB RAM is a must for ultra high settings !!!! :o

@rockthegod: There was this TV interview with the CEO/Director of Crytek.
After the footage the specs were shown on screen.
It was a dual core with 2GB of RAM.
This is the main confusion as I read the same article too.
I dont have the link right now but I saw it on youtube.

I think they were playing at highest/ultra settings on directX 10.Somehow i managed to get the impression that the footage of Crysis at E3 2007 was a bit dull maybe because it was played on DirectX 9 with some eyecandy turned off.The pics are off top quality on that page u mentioned.They are a treat to the eyes.

Great news from Crytek today! Crytek Community Manager Alexander Marschal sent a word that the Crysis single player demo is only a month away! What an awesome way to start a Monday!
The Countdown to Crysis Continues:
Single Player Demo - 25.09.07
PC gamers now have a reason to mark a big circle around September 25th on their calendars as the single player demo for Crysis will be lighting up rigs worldwide in just 30 days.
Consisting of the entire first level in Crysis’ epic single player campaign, "Contact", gamers will get to finally experience first-hand the stunning visuals, revolutionary Nanosuit gameplay and open-ended level design that make Crysis one of the most anticipated shooters and PC games of all time. The demo is also poised to include a huge surprise from Crytek.
Crysis is coming off award-winning showings at the German Games Convention, picking up Best PC Game of GC honors from the panel of experts judging the show and from E3, where it also won the Game Critics Awards Best PC Game of E3 2007. The countdown to Crysis ends on November 16, 2007.
EDIT : DEMO DELAYED TO OCTOBER 26

Well i might have some bad news for u all.It seems that most footage that were given recently were from Dx9 and the vegetation and lightning really did not impress me compared to the DirectX 10 footage still its far better than other DirectX 9 games.It seems that they want to attract more customers from the DirectX 9 segment as its more than 98% of the total gamer community.

My sysconfig is P4 520 (2.8 Ghz) HT , 768 MB RAM and nVidia 7300 GT based 256MB card. I have the latest drivers installed.

-Video Card: 128 MB GeForce 4 128 MB; ATI Radeon 9500
-Sound Card: Sound Blaster Audigy series
-DirectX 9.0b
-CD-ROM: 8x-16x DVD or 32x CD-ROM
-4 GB of free Harddrive space

upstream to host 8 players)
7300 GT is way better than the recomended card right?

@charangk my old system had a Chaintech Geforce 6600 which had uderclocked ram speed.But i was able to play farcry at the highest settings on 1024*768.Also i was using that card on AGP 4x(not 8x)which really bottlenecked the card,the processor used also very poor an ATHLON XP 2400+.Ur 7300GT coupled with pentium 4 2.8Ghz HT is better than my Geforce 6600.You should get better performance.Did u apply the latest patch for Farcry.

Few people in India try to complete games on the day they are released but i think it's madness,abroad its a different approach altogether,many people do that.I have completed gears of war the day i got my hands on it but not the day it was released.
Edit: u would be happy to know that @charan's problem was solved.His graphics card wasn't the problem but mismatching ram modules.
After reading the posts on the incrysis forum i have decided to go for another Geforce 8800 GTS 640MB.

Now he wants to buy a Agp 8x graphics card to play this game only.....what will be the cheapest solution....will a geforce 6200 card run this game at maximum level at 800X600 resolution? or wt abt geforce fx 5200...he only needs a secondhand one since he is not interested in other games.
