Crytek also announced that players who are ready to start the hunt can pre-order the Crysis? 3 Hunter Edition today. The Crysis 3 Hunter Edition gives players the tools to become the ultimate hunter in multiplayer with early access to the new signature bow and its attachments, plus the Hunter Nanosuit module which adds additional power and functionality to the super-suit. Gamers who pre-order now will also have a head start when playing online with a bonus XP boost up to level 5, a unique bow skin and three exclusive dog tags to hunt in style.

Stalker Pack – Includes the base game, all Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: for players who like to stalk their prey from the shadows the Stalker Pack provides early multiplayer access to the deadly semi-auto Jackal shotgun. This powerful, close-range shotgun comes with a unique silencer attachment, custom weapon skin and two exclusive themed in-game dog tags.
Overkill Pack – Includes the base game, all Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: the Overkill Pack features early multiplayer access to the Typhoon assault weapon and skin. Spewing 500 rounds a second, the Typhoon gives players the ability to go guns blazing to take back the Liberty Dome. Also included are two exclusive Overkill themed in-game dog tags.
Predator Pack – Includes the base game, all the Hunter Edition content and the following early multiplayer unlocks: the Predator Pack delivers early multiplayer access to the Feline submachine gun and exclusive camo. With an extremely fast rate of fire and a 60 round magazine the Feline is highly effective and deadly, at short range.


Guess what pack I'll be getting. That's right. FELINE BABY. Predator Pack ftw.

So we have:

New Suit Module: Hunter
Weapons: Feline, Typhoon, Jackal, Signature Bow
Pre-order: Bonus XP, Bonus Dog-Tags, Bonus Weapon Skins!


Jackal gets a silencer, pretty sick eh? Typhoon @ 500 Rounds Per Second? How the hell!? Feline gets upgraded to 60 round magazines! WOOT.

Well I don't want to sound too pessimistic ;D

..but I pre-ordered last time and got a game that was barely an alpha, plus my Limited Edition code never worked. I think I'll wait till the game is released and see how it is before I buy.

Maybe the new Hunter module will replace air-stomp and everyone will get airstomp now.

Well I just pre ordered and am in the process of building my new rig. I just sold my old one, even though I just bought a newish video card. Been mowing lawns on my days off and s@#t like that for about a year now. Looking at a gtx 580 tri sli setup. Or maybe a gtx 680 sli I dunno yet. Either way I will be ready for this game hopefully. I'm really hoping they heard our cries and plan to make this game a true visual beast.

Where can I pre-order? The EA link to Origin is broken...

Sorry guys, I'm not preordering a game that's scheduled at least 1 year from now.

BF3's release is way worse....

Well... It seems it's time to save up some money. Normally, I would wait for the game to release to see the MP state and cheaters (let's hope for a Beta) but the Limited Edition bonuses sound soo good.

I really hope shops round here get the Predator Pack, Origin is only offering the Overkill Pack.

Preorder link
But @ ￡40 it is overpriced. By the time it's out next year it'll be ￡15-￡20 from online CD Key resellers inc. all the extra goodies it advertises.
What they're doing now is just marketing strategy. And it won't hook me.

Well I will wait till I can find a place to pre-order the Predator Pack

Besides I'm more interested in the minimum requirements.
I know it'll be made in Cry-Engine3 & Sandbox but will DX11/High Res Textures be installed by default or will there be DX9/10/11 choices?

So there are 3 unlocks. Stalker, Overkill & Predator. Does that mean the user can only have one of those packs or can they all be purchased as extra dlc's?

You're playing Crysis anticipating the minimum requirements? wut?

The game sounds pretty BA. I'm still skeptical about this bow thing (I don't like the concept). I'm sad there isn't a pack for an awesome sniper rifle with cool skins. Also, prophet died in 2023, but I guess he lived on through the nano suit, crazy SP incoming!??!

I like the early announcement, gives us time to criticize stuff as it comes in. I also like the possible 7 different types of terrain. Diverse MP maps! And let's not forget...


alien guns!!?!?!?

Of course I'm interested in min requirements. It'll need to be playable for the user to enjoy it right? I'm sure that's a reasonable question. Also what is BA? (Bad ass?)
Also Stalker, Overkill & Predator pack are for multiplayer only right?

I wonder if by different 7 locations they will have a snowy location and a desert location and a rainforest location, that'd be cool. I really hope the MOAC makes a return.

But it seems already there will be lots more weapon skins which is cooool. Dunno why Crysis 2 couldnt have had lots of different skins... Call of duty has loads...

This game is also running on a revamped Cryengine 3.4. Updated feature list, check it out!

Also here's some more info about the seven wonders, sounds primarily jungle-related.

http://crysis.ea.com/en_GB/news/all/seven_wonders

Lets see. Sounds like Crysis 1 a lot to me (jungle, alien gun). I doubt that the feline will have 60 bullets per mag. It does in the campaign already, but 60 bullets would make it way to op (comparing it to the c2 mp)... I just hope the weapons won't be glitched.
I like the idea of the bow, but not that the jackal gets a silencer. It's strong enough...
I wish they'd make the sniper rifle like in crysis 1, well just not as easy as it is in c2.

xbox360 an ps3 are not able to run dx11. requirements will be pretty much stay the same because it is basically the same engine.

But we will have Enhanced Glass Destruction with the latest Cryengine 3 updates

I think Feline should have 60 rounds cause just it runs out of ammo way too fast, they already super-nerfed it ages ago from what it was at Crysis 2 release, same time jaw and marshall got nerf.

I think there will be less bugs because they will have learned their mistakes.

So I see swamp, rainforest, grasslands, river, canyon, skyscraqer and.... 1 more somewhere xD

Interesting interview with Rasmus Hojengaard:
http://www.metro.co.uk/tech/games/896283-crysis-3-preview-and-interview-urban-jungle

1. Psycho is making a come back? Really?
2. Blanket statements about C3 being a combination of C1 and C2 so I guess MP is gonna change a bit.
3. CE3.4 introduces individually rendered blades of grass? Inc FPS drop ololol

Well yeh they already had the Crysis 3 story ready when Crysis 2 was released, Crysis 2 was just the lead up to C3. It's pretty clear why they had to go for a game with no jungle only city, so that for Crysis 3 they could combine both the jungle and city and have a totally awesome finish to the trilogy!

Did you save that? It appears they have taken the interview down until April 24th.

I think that Crysis 3 MP will be sniper heaven. Crouch anyone?
