Hi Andrey, sure you're probably right BF3 is better lookin' than Crysis 2, but it sure as hell ain't better lookin than C2 dx11 Ultra, come on now! ;P the particles have there own shadows ffs! :p
At the risk of sounding like a complete dike you gotta see both games maxed to judge.

As I said, Cryengine 3 is better then Frostbite 2, but Battlefield 3 is better then Crysis 2.
Btw. Crysis 2 has better DX11 effects

Third that 10k system can run crysis on 2560x1600 with everything maxed out

1. That wasn't shown anywhere in the video. Either you're assuming, citing a source that doesn't exist, or citing a source that you didn't post in your original topic.

2. Even if #1 was true, that means nothing and this is why: Engines like CE3 and Frostbite 2 can be inefficient to a certain degree. CE3 I know for a fact is a massively efficient engine because it can run 30 FPS+ on netbooks, and as everyone knows, netbooks have horrible hardware. So there's a completely obvious assumption that Frostbite 2 was just coded poorly and stresses your system more. Where's your proof against that?

I still am raging in the US.


It is said in the video "Come on guys this is a $10k system"
See the video carefully and read the synopsis about it. And " know for a fact is a massively efficient engine because it can run 30 FPS+ on netbooks, and as everyone knows" this is wrong crysis 2 does not run on a netbook giving 30+fps. And truly Battlefield 3;s graphics are amazing.
I am not just going on the fps.



Youve got to be kidding?

it cant be...

are you joking??



and because you were uberly fail
ill give you this cookie bro..

Hi everyone, I know you must all be a little butthurt, but while cryengine is amazing, frostbite 2 can indeed acheive much more, and DOES produce better graphics. At least Battlefield 3 on a good PC, has better graphics than cryengine. Before you start spamming me, the graphics are better, but not by THAT much at all. Battlefield 3 is currently THE BEST GRAPHIC GAME TO DATE, and that's a fact, ask anyone( who isn't on this site, 'cause they like crysis, so obviously they'll defend it) and they'll agree. The only real graphical advantage, isn't really grapghics related, but in battlefield 3, you can't see your own shadow. Crytek will have to make another new engine to reclaim their title as the king of graphics. And remember, I love crysis just as much as anyone else here. (well except for it's few bugs, or at least the few bugs I have) But cryengine MIGHT have better lighting...

With the 'Beta' 1.1 patch, which enables us to set detail level to Extreme, Batman AC dx11 beats them both, sure not by much, the PhysX used in this game, the art direction(on par with C2), the open world, seeing is believing, best booking you Rig a place in comp. rehab before installing, polished next-gen material, yes SIR!

I still hold my position that STALKER has the best graphics

So there's still something fundamentally wrong with your argument: you're trying to tell me something based on aesthetic appeal which is subject to personal opinion AND at the the same time your proof is: "ask anyone, and they'll agree." This is worse than the original post.

GTFO

SDub is right, as always. Most of you guys try to compare game engines based primarily on the aesthetics of certain games; let me remind you that "quality" of such engines doesn't begin and end with the visuals it's able to produce. There are things like performance, optimization, scalability, ease of deployment, toolchain and editors available, mod support and last but not least, licenses, fees and terms of use. Making comparisons based on art direction and personal taste is irrelevant.

And no, I have no idea which engine is superior.

atm, it is only possible to anolyze the cryengine. Simply because there we got parts of the sdk and an editor.

Personally I like the look (and gameplay) of crysis2 more. I will give bf3 a second chance today, but it feels like i wasted already 120 hours...

He is right. First of all even IGN says that Battlefield 3 is the crysis of 2011.Plus none of you have used frostbite 2 just because DICE advertises about the game and not the engine and crytek advertises about both without using both we are coming to the true potential. Thats why i have said dont compare the true potential untill you have used both the engines

Thanks Bearded Mosquito!

1. Crysis 2, is the Crysis of 2011, not sure if you realized but Crysis 2 was released in 2011.
2. You haven't used Frosbite 2 either, so you're only once again comparing what the game looks like in regards to personal opinion, which is something you cannot quantitatively measure.

BeardedMosquito had an awesome comprehensive list of things you can actually compare.

What the point in biching which engine is better and which is worser.Both engines are awesome in their own right.Cry engine may be technically superior than frostbite engine since it uses full dx11 goodies.But crysis2 is a bad showcase of this engine's true capability.Engine was hold back becoz crysis2 is console port at its root while bf3 inspite of not using tessellation looks absolutely stunning becoz its a pc game not a **** console port.Cry engine may look better than frostbite engine if some developers uses it to make pc only game but currently bf3 graphics smokes crysis2 in every aspect.Except water rendering.

And OP there is no point in starting a thread like this asking such a subjective question in a forum where 90% guys are cry engine fanboys.If you start a thread in bf3 forums telling cry engine is better than frostbite it will not take long before people start bashing you left and right.

lemme ask ya'll this:
If Crytek were given unlimited access to Frostbite2 and told there would be a prize of a zillion dollars to make Crysis 2 Ultra on it(same looks & same feel) you think it could be done? IMO - no
If DICE were given the same challenge, to make BF3 using the CryEngine3 you think that could be done? IMO - chit of course.

We haven't seen the full potential of the CryEngine 3 yet, so things might change in the future.
Technically and (I think) in every aspect except graphics the CryEngine is better.
But it is difficult to form an opinion when I haven't worked with Frostbite 2 yet (and I won't do this in the future, because they don't offer a free SDK)

Imo CE3 wins, but that's just my opinion.

XRay engine FTW stfu about Frostbite and Cryengine and stop arguing

edit: Oh yeah and CE3 has a SDK allowing people to make the graphics even better but FB2 has no such SDK so only the developers can update the graphics. And we all know devs are lazy in that way. I mean there hasn't been a single game to this day with perfect textures

I would say after this conservation that till now frostbite 2 has proved itself to be better than cryengine 3 by Battlefield 3. But maybe in the future crytek would focuse on making the next crysis on pc with cryengine 3 and produce better graphics than crysis 1 . Then we can say that cryengine 3 is better . But if we talk about today frostbite 2 is better. This is a comparison in what has been achieved and not what has to be achieved.

SO CURRENTLY FROSTBITE 2 IS BETTER BUT IN THE FUTURE CRYENGINE 3 MAY PROVE ITSELF TO BE A BETTER ENGINE

Judging by these comments? These comments all point towards Cryengine 3 and they're all right(In my opinion).
The fact that you said FB2 wins is just personal preference in the sense that you want it to win because YOU think its better.

In terms of what we know, we can only give our opinion. The real devs, behind the real coding, source and features would know which is better. pointless thread.

No-one is pretending to be a Game Dev here, it's our subjective opinions on how the games strike us, not only here but in the Bf3 forums & nvidia forums the idea is CryEngine3 > FrostBite2

Screw ya all they are both grate games and who gives a fu(k about graphics and specs and all that nerdy SH!t its a game u play it u cry u have epic moments u have WTF moments and u have hax.. has everyone forgoten what gaming is realy about??? huh have ya well have ya?? huh...?

One of the First levels of the Beautiful Batman AC, IMO Best Art Design 2011, lovely effects in this game like streamers trailing off batarang black & red in later levels.
Detail @ Extreme.

Are you that guy who posted that he was 13 and should he buy a xbox 360 as it is simpler to play on it and in the end came up with the conclusion to buy an xbox 360.
If yes than you are a console gamer who plays on limited hardware and therefore you just care about playing the game and nothing else.
But we PC gamers look at the graphics , AI and other factors.

Therefore the your comments would not prove helpful to come to a conclusion on the following topic that IS FROSTBITE 2 BETTER THAN CRYENGINE 3.
