Crysis 3 - Another step in wrong direction

Post » Tue Dec 04, 2012 12:05 am

Crysis - One of the best games ever. Have the developers forgotten EVERYTHING they did best, why Crysis was better than every other game?

No it's not just the graphics, and it's certainly NOT the aliens.

Crysis 2 - The first step closer to destroying the series. The best thing with the game was the nanosuit and graphics.

Crysis 3 - Back to the jungle. But have they forgotten why we liked the jungle in the first place?

Here are some word for you: Wide open areas, Physics, freedom.

They have ruined everything. The best game ever has turn into a failure.

Before you say anything, I want you too see this video from 3.30:



And then tell why on earth my money should go too Crysis 3, because Crysis 3 looks just like Crysis 2, a good game some say, but a failure too the original Crysis.

Just wait and see what they do. Personally I agree with the sentiment; as of right now I won't be buying Crysis 3.

However, if they change enough stuff and prove it through a demo, I could still be convinced. I'm certainly not going to pre-order though, I learned not to do that the hard way with Crysis 2.

Crysis 2 > Crysis 1

OMG, an opinion different then yours.

Maybe cause judgment based over a video game is subjective. :O

I'm one of those who like C2 over the first one... The trailer looks like C2, but I'm sure Crytek listen to the fans. I'm also sure, that they learned from the mistakes in C2. The second game was great as a console game, but I completely understand how disappointed most fans of the first one were. It seems that I'm one of the few fans that still have faith in Crytek.

So... Can I get the same Hunter's Edition as preordering when it release? I don't want to preorder it, but I want the same game and features like preordering. :P Crysis was cool, but I liked Crysis 2 too and I'll probably like Crysis 3. I guess they learned with people saying what they said about Crysis 2, so... I want them to make things like:
-Grab in wires, tubes, etc. Everything that's "grabable" in real life, you know. So, for example, you can jump and grab a tube in the wall, then kick wall and keep going, freedom with everything around you;
-Normal run mode separated to the other run type on Crysis 2;
-Etc. It includes things I said in other threads, lol.

Sumarizing... I want them to take all good things from Crysis and Crysis 2, put it on Crysis 3 and increase something we never thought about (cool things ofc :P).

I can see your disappointment of C2 and I do agree that crytek needs to go back to a true open-ended map design and somehow figure out how to separate human sprint and nano sprint cause that **** is annoying as hell. On the other side, I do like the fact that C2's graphic fidelity is more presented regardless what graphic is set at versus C1 its noticeable when a bump up or down in graphic is set to. If I was poor and couldn't keep up on hardware upgrades C2 on high would still give me a lot of eye-candy with good FPS. Besides, I doubt anyone can see all the graphic features even while in combat. Another thing I like is that gameplay is more fluid and ledge-grab is something I think is a important factor to keep the game moving along smoothly. Just when you think you came up short on a distance jump, ledge-grab helps out. There's a little parkour feel to it. Now if one thing I hate the most is that certain ppl think they need to be cater too or think they are a big shot developer. Don't like the way C3 is coming about, develop your own Fing crysis series. Don't like the way C3 looks, develop your own Fing crysis series. Don't like how C3 looks like C2, develop your own Fing crysis series. Don't like how the crysis story, you guessed it, develop your own crysis series (story). Just be happy they are developing C3, otherwise develop your own Fing crysis series. Also, keep in mind that they are doing the best they can and it's still about a year away so many things can change and no one is holding a gun to you head to buy C3.

a C1 sandbox is something a little unclear but it will be nice. In an urban environment, crytek can do a C1 sandbox style by design the map in which the player can have multiple avenues to take. Instead of having one big Fing street, give streets A,B,C,D, and F or some alleys. Let the manholes be an option to sneak around heavily guarded area or to get around rubbles but nothing that wont be any enemies lurking around in the sewers. Another option is allow access to the rooftop for some of you that likes jumping from building to buildings. Many many ways to get to an objective.

Sdub I agree a hundred percent. Crysis 2 just feels better in ways that the original can not equal.

just to point out if anyone hasn't caught it is that crytek said that the C3 map is design to be a sandbox unlike C2 was a choreographed sandbox. So I'm hopefully it's more open.

We caught it and we don't buy it. Just like most of what was advertised for Crysis 2 was bullsh*t.

Just to point out if anyone hasn't caught it, but Crytek throw the word 'sandbox' around like a chimp throws its own faeces.

No Crysis game has ever been a sandbox. Crysis and Warhead were both wide-open, strikingly beautiful and unashamedly-linear titles.

GTA is a sandbox. Arkham city is a sandbox. Hell, even Saint's row 3 is a sandbox. Crysis is not, and never has been.

I played the original on PC. Sorry, my reasons for liking Crysis 2 more than Crysis 1 are not illegitimate.

Pretty obvious, bro. You didn't need to explicitly say it.

I wonder how many people who prefer C1 are missing a chromosome.

Far cry 1 rocked, crysis one rocked and broke every pc, warhead was a nice bonus......

Then EA told crytek to catch some dollars and make kiddy console games on useless hardware.

Yup, you're committing to an equivocation fallacy.

Or I was just stating a more blatant example of what you did. Doesn't equivocation have to do with when a word has 2 different meanings, and you use the wrong meaning to validate a statement. Here's an example I picked up off the internet:

"All banks are beside rivers. Therefore, the financial institution where I deposit my money is beside a river. "

I don't believe I committed that crime.

I don't think Crysis and crysis 2 are similar enough to do a better or worse in the way that Warhead is better than Crysis can be done.

Crysis I feel was more varied in game-play, fighting tanks, helicopters, nanosuits, ceph, jeeps, patrol boats, Crysis 2 dropped quite a few of those completely and the rest made an appearance but were extremely under used.

Crysis 2 in some ways had a better enviroment in that crysis tended to be a very flat 2D terrain, rarely did you go over or under which is not to say it was perfectly utilized in Crysis 2 because it wasn't.

Crysis 2 major improvement was on the details it is after all a first person shooter so guns are not a minor part of the game and Crysis did not handle the guns well in terms of uniqueness every upgrade fitted on the FY71 making most other guns, sniper especially worthless, while having the most ammo consistently available from start to finish.

Mobility really made the guns feel special in Crysis 2 do i want the mobility of the Feline or the under barrel attachments of the SCARAB, FY71/SMG, no contest the FY71, move just as fast, do better damage, has a grenade launcher and tactical dart.

Nanosuit is the principal mechanic and Nanosuit 2 really was a vast improvement in usage as everything was more intuitive when you went for the combo, you thought about what you wanted to do, then did it, rather than think about what you want to do, then how you can manipulate a fiddly modular set of modes to do it.

And no constantly opening the power wheel does not make a game or game mechanic more complex.


On the matter of Crysis 3 crytek has all the right things they just need to mix and match them better, think of the gels in portal 2 only to find they sit in a seperate box in the game away from all the other cool toys, do the opposite of that.

My little brother in law prefers C2 than C1 but then again he has an extra chromosome.

Couple of things I dislikes about Crysis 2, and what i believe, went in the wrong direction.

-Does not reward hipfire.
-ADS is the only reasonable way to kill someone?
-3 bullet deaths
-Pacing is not even slightly relevant to a crysis title.
-Crysis 1 rewarded those who could manage headshot under stress.
-CoD based games reward who see's who first. (crysis 2)
-Team work can easily be thrown out the window.
-Every game mode delt with a TDM bassis. Unlike "mike" in the old crysis.
-Vehicles, seriously this one hit me hard when i found out.
-Unmoddable rule sets, if the FY71 was so OP, you could have easily toned down damage, but what spilt the community was the factor of "ranked and unranked"
-Main reason why DLC broke the game, and custom maps never took off.
-Armor mode deserves no such title.
-Map size, seems like the only ones that got it right were DLC, and everyone had those right?
-Limited creativity, no Q jumpong, no fisting no fun.
-Cloak was terrible in C2, nanovision was not an option, should have mad a loud noise like in C1, as a matter of fact, C1 had the most balanced cloak implimented in a game ever.
-Short matches.
-Somehow, this might seem odd of me to say, but players were blurs at times, and this is coming from someone who play'd with a modified speed scale.
-The one man army deal, could have never imagined that in a C1 map.

Pretty much, the community is being spilt, those who enjoyed C2, and those who demand a Crysis sequal. Seems like Crytek leans away from the C1 community

True, in the formal sense, an equivocation fallacy does tend to refer more the equivocation of meanings. However, what you were doing is fallaciously equivocating our responses. I posed a question based on the fact that Crysis 1 has different game mechanics on console; you posed a question designed to insult anyone falling into the group of liking Crysis 1.

So once again, I am not responsible for what you choose to infer from a post. You should however, before responding like a child, consider if that which you inferred is actually there to be inferred.
