Haha You are so wrong.....do you even have a console? Can you back up your claim?
It is just your opinion.

Looking at the ammount of topics regarding the editor for consoles that have come by over the last couple of months and the number of replies, your claim of no console gamers are interested is not true.

Lets just say.. if there will be an editor for consoles.. it probably will have less features than the one for pc.

I think the game will be the same on the disc whit or whit out the editor and there will be some sort of extra dlc for the pc or something like that.
In the end the pc will have way more options, one way or the other.

I do think they will release the same game on all platforms (not talkig about graphics)
It would be unfair to make a editor for pc only and charge the same ammount of money (usaly even more then pc)

i dont see why would it be unfair to have editor only on pc
in case you dont know, games are made on pc's, even the console games, or you really think they are making the maps with a controller and typing thousands of lines of code without a keyboard??
as far as they have shown, the console players would be able to benefit from the same content that can be created for pc since the editor can run simultaneously on all 3 platforms, the only problem would be installing the mods or maps on consoles

O my mistake...all games are made on the wii whit the remote controll these days!
Don`t you keep up whit the latest info bro?

http://www.readthetopic.com is where you can find all the latest info for wii engine and mods.

Let's keep it civil eh guys?

If/when Crytek make an announcement regarding Sandbox editor you'll be sure to hear about it both here and at Crymod.

In the mean time, we should take this opportunity to discuss the benefits of having an editor. What kinda map do you think you'd create first?

cmon this stuff is posted 1000 times already, and yes even on pc they use controlers for making maps and there is something like a usb keybord and mouse for consoles.
The fact that you don`t even know its possible to use a keybord on a console makes me think youre posting in the wrong topic.


Liberty island would be a awesome map to build.
It all depends on what there will be in the editor i think. If there are terrain tools Central park will be a blast to make.

I will be re-making some of my Farcry2 maps for sure, some maps are maxed out and don`t play that well maxed out. choppy/laggy.

first i do know that there are keyboards for consoles although you dont see that often, at least i've never seen one unless on some pics, then again i dont use consoles
about ppl making maps on pc with xbox/ps3 controller i would really like to see that (not being sarcastic)
as well as modelling and texturing with a controller, that would also be great, even if its possible it probably would be as hard as trying to write holding a pen with your feet instead of your hand

the large kind, like cw maps

I own a PS3 and a Wii, along with my PC.

Don't play the PS3 or Wii that much though. Regardless, the consoles simply don't have the power to run a fully-featured editor.

My first map would be the very basic one to learn to handle the editor.

On that I would like to do it might be Crynet's base that this being attacked by the aliens or a small city full soldiers' of Crynet.

Though also I like to do maps related to scenes of other games, I did one in the editor of the Crysis 1 that is Assault the Counter-Strike's phase xD

"I think thats a bit of an over the top expectation.
Consoles are build for playing games.. and not creating them."

tell thast to lbp2 lol

This game is made on a ps3 map editor whit a controller and will be released next month.


Well, I pretty much just want to know if the Editor is Developer Quality.

Or, more specifically... are you using the same tools for the pre-made stuff as we'd have in the Editor? That would be cool, but yeah, just asking to see if it is so, it's k if it's not.

"Yep, we built the whole campaign and the multiplayer maps using the exact same editor, on the PS3, using a Dual Shock controller."

They built the maps on a PS3 editor, but how did they make that editor in the first place?

They made that editor on a PC. They modeled, unwrapped, and textured the models in a program like 3D Studio Max on a PC as well. Gameplay scripting? Also done on a PC.

Making the maps on a PS3 editor is just amateurish on their part. It isn't anything impressive, if anything they cost themselves a lot of additional development time because they weren't able to utilize keyboard shortcuts, which cuts map development time in half. Additionally, you can move a cursor faster with a mouse than an anolog stick.

Honestly, saying they made the maps with a PS3 editor just makes them look like amateurs. You're not going to see a large professional studio make maps like that. They must be an indie developer which doesn't have strict deadlines.

I believe that to do a editor for computer with possibility of connecting computer/console and doing maps for consoles would be very nice.

360 it's very compatible with a computer provided that it allows to transfer music, videoes and applications between the console and the computer.

Because of it I think that the editor might be like that, but I have not even idea, and the truth I am wishing that Crytek says something about this xD

AFAIK, Crytek level designers used their LiveCreate system when creating the Crysis 2 levels. The LiveCreate system simply allows the Level Designer to see their edits on all three platforms in real-time. The actual editor however is only available on the PC.

Creating a PS3-only editor would only be a foolish waste of time

These are 2 different subjects, please read before you quote someone and call it a fake.

They just need more time to observe and review. Some conclusions are drawn to quickly.

Don't suppose you fancy clearing these 2 different subjects up? They seem to blur into one IMO.

My bad, guys. Focused too much on the thread topic I guess.

In general:

Editors just litarally scream for a Mouse and a keyboard.
As well as for strong hardware to give you as many options as possible.
So consoles arent a good choice for complex Editors period.
Creating a mod or even a game with a Ps3 controller is nothing but a daring feat but not a effective way to do so.

( And iam not speaking of simple map making tools called editors)

So in short, if you really want to edit this game, stick with the Pc.

I think that the editor just was working in computer

Probably it could come out into Crymod and load the maps of the computer on a console.

Even this way I do not believe that the editor could be in use in the console directly. But I do not believe that the people this one ready to pay the same price for a game that editor does not bring.

What do you mean?

What I wanted to say (excuse me if I should not explain well is that my english is not a very high xD) is that it seems to me likely that the editor could not use in the consoles because it is very difficult to use the Sandbox with a gamepad.

What I believe is that the editor will be for PC with the possibility of playing the maps created in the consoles connecting them to the PC.

Also I said that I do not believe that it seems to the players of consoles likely to pay the same price for a game without editor, and without possibility of playing the maps created in the editor of PC

@Dany_naron
Okay, got it. And P.s. your English isn't that bad.
