Graphics battle: Crysis 2 DX11 vs Battlfield 3

Post » Fri Dec 31, 2010 12:12 am

The gameplay Videos of BF3 are actually impressive. They've done an incredible job with the lighting, very good textures, and awesome color effects.

As of right now I'll be honest and say that the current Crysis 2 will fall short of BF3's graphics by quite a bit. Some say Crysis 2 is the best looking shooter they have ever seen...I am aware that we each have different opinions but it isn't my fault if Crysis 2 is the only shooter they have ever played.

Although the released videos of Battlefield 3 are probably not exactly accurate with how the final game will look, and it will be released more than 6 months after Crysis 2, it doesn't mean Crysis 2 can't be modded or patched to look like heaven all over again. If Crytek really puts their talents to use, they CAN turn out some awesome stuff.

Make your call, who is going to get the graphics crown this year? ...By any chance, if Modern Warfare 3 end up with the best graphics, we might as well all go play Super Mario.

4 year old crysis 1 > crysis 2

Bf3 will probably be a dissapointment aswell and crysis 1/metro 2033 will still have the best graphics

I still believe Crysis 2's graphics are the best. Crysis 2 with DX11, and mods from Crymod will make the game look phenomenal.

If Crytek really tries to get out the best out of DirectX 11 then Crysis 2 will look better than Battlefield 3 (if it does not yet)...
I am looking forward to the path ^^

I am quite optimistic. They made a directx 9 game look very impressive. I am sure they haven't lost their touch when it comes to directx 10 and 11.

I personally think it′s gonna be a draw.
Also someone said earlier that metro 2033 will keep the crown as best looking game.
When will people understand that Metro 2033 didn′t look that good?
It was just very advanced and heavy on your system, wich seems to mean good looking in the mind of many pc-fanboys. Protip, all of the latest techniques, and low FPS doesn′t mean good graphics.(Don′t get me wrong, I play on pc, so no flaming please)

In the mind of a PC-fanboy: OMGZ I CaNz TOTALLY RUN thiS GAEM @ 60 FPS, WTF NoW IT L00kS LIEK SH!T ROFL FRIKKIn′ CONSOLES RUINING MY GAEMS AND Itz ALSO DX9 BUT L00KS BEtaR THAN moST DX11 GAEMS BUT STILL SUX CUZ IT R DX9 WTF St00PID C0N50l3s.

And yes, thats how I imagine a PC-fanboy thinking.

I played Metro, and I must say, the graphics are pretty much awesome.

Excluding "human" graphics.
People in M2033 seemed ugly and facial animations svcks totally (I never could play in DX11, but C1 had an awesome facial animation and was DX10)
Another comparison is Bad Company2, that had an AWESOME body/facial animation as well.

In the side of C2, like someone said, C2 have very nice graphics, considering that is a DX9 renderer. I'm hoping DX11 patch will be awesome. The longer they take to release it, better. Means that they're making huge (much needed) modifications.

bf3 not that impressive. the more they show the less impressed i keep getting, the graphics actually look like cod or bad company more and more. actual gameplay looks just like bad company 2. crysis 2 graphics are the best in all of gaming especially with the new dx11 patch it looks even more amazing and i havent even lost any performance either that is pretty impressive.

battlefield 3 prealpha vs retail crysis 2 isnt a fair comparison because crysis 2 doesnt have dx11?

for me, bf3 trailers already look better than Crysis 2 trailers. therefore BF3 cannot be worse than Crysis 2 if you use my logic.

Lol. Battlefield 3 wins even in its pre-alpha state. Its combinations of ground up DX11 development with massive destruction, state of the art sound effects, and realistic smooth animations will combine to bring the biggest and best immersive experience known to gaming.

It is not just the picture output on your screen that matters (BF3 looks better anyway), it is every single immersive factor that comes into play and in that regard, Battlefield 3 will be a winner, no contest at all.

So hmmm... BF3 wins. Crysis 2 is a complete joke of an immersive experience.

let me tell you all something. Tiago Sausa the cheif R&D scientist at Crytek is a real badass. His papers are widely cited. And I was reading frostbite 2 presentations and as it turns out they were heavily influenced by Mr Sausa's research.

CE3 is much more impressive that what we see in crysis 2. In terms of engine CE3 has slight edge

bf3 will fail pretty bad, itll just be another cod clone as u can already tell by the trailers. crysis 2 is leagues above any of them.

I agree that the CE3 is much better but we are talking about the application of these Engine's in which Battlefield 3 is vastly superior. ;)

ahem,...... I still love BF3, its insanely addicting and gorgeous, which by that I mean BC2, which i will only suspect BF3 will be better, but BF3 is still living with the same cancer as Crysis 2, the consoles. Will probably be held back from its full power as well. And another , no Crysis 2 Dx11 has been shown yet, so as of now, no comparisons can be done,

Read some more articles on BF3 technology. They are building gameplay ground up on the PC platform and scaling it down for the consoles.. This is why PC gets bigger maps with 64 players while consoles are limited to much smaller maps and 24 players... That is just one example of many more we haven't heard of yet. :)

DICE is trying very very hard to not allow consoles to be a limiting factor and they've said and are proving it so far.

it might be because DICE may have EA's money backing them. Crytek is not owned by EA and it not its main franchise unlike BF3.

Also BC2 did face tough competition with mw2 and black ops on pc. Yeah I know there are so many stupid pc gamer. EA wants to rule pc space with bf3.

Crytek might have had limited budget or they didnt want to differentiate between console and pc version. I also thing that they might have knowingly dumbed down graphics to shut up @$$holes who screamed crysis 1 was unoptimized. Now that those jackasses are quite crytek can bing on MAXIMUM GRAPHICS. Also we havent seen dx11 in crysis 2 yet

I'll compare them when the game is actually released. If BF3 is as linear as it's predecessor, it might be unfair to even attempt to compare them.

Try comparing Crysis 2 to any 'graphically superior' game, and you will really see that half of it is just smoke and mirrors. Compare any game to Crysis 1 and you may as well hand the competition a loaded gun.
