» Fri Apr 17, 2009 4:16 am

So I think it is pretty official...the 3D trailer was realtime on PC...http://crymod.com/thread.php?postid=711843#post711843

You sure it was real time? If so then that's awesome.

Yea, Cry-Hacok confirmed that it was real-time PC..... which is incredible. Cant wait to play it

Hope that shuts a lot of people up then

Yea its not hard to see that it was all realtime, playing with Sandbox you can get Crysis to look this good, it will slow down to a crawl but its still realtime lol.
Also a lot of the models are low poly

Amazing stuff in that trailer, I really hope PC version doesn't get budget textures that way we dont need a community made high res texture pack, thats all I'm really worried about, shaders will be amazing, vistas will be amazing, gameplay will be amazing, Crysis 2 = Amazing XD

If that was PC footage, then I am very happy.

Out of the two videos released, the 3D video impressed me while the Console Gameplay did not. If the 3D video was on PC, then I hope it stays that way with my impressment.

Hmmm that looks pretty awesome !
I rather PC rather than XBox360 or PS3...
A FPS must be played with a mouse and a keyboard !

And what about the fact that it's 3D? How many of you are going to buy a 3D monitor for it, and assuming it has to render twice as many frames in 3D mode, will we be needing a 5870 or something to run it on high, do you think?

I read that the 3D is subtle enough that it isnt too much of a performance hit (maybe 5 cost max), from the people that watched it.

Cost = Frames Per Second (fps)

Mobile autocorrect for the loss.

I could care less for the 3D...doubt that it'll add anything to the game... I think it's just for PR...lookey we haz da 3D

» Fri Apr 17, 2009 8:07 am

I don't really care for the 3D... as long as it's a nice solid shooter that will run okay I'm fine!

There is also no performance hit for this method of 3D, hence how the consoles can have it too.

That is footage of the 360 version.

I love those videos - just watched them all again

» Fri Apr 17, 2009 4:11 am

This is some very impressive footage especially because it is real-time. I am slightly less worried now.

» Fri Apr 17, 2009 1:45 am

I am less woried as well since i saw the 3D video was PC footage.

» Fri Apr 17, 2009 4:22 am

Those were all in-game cinimatics. It must be being generated by the engine in real time, not really "real time gameplay."

» Fri Apr 17, 2009 1:05 am

Yes, I would not call a trailer PC game play.

» Fri Apr 17, 2009 5:59 am

It's still rendered in real-time, meaning that is what the graphics will look like.

» Fri Apr 17, 2009 8:07 am

It's most likely a custscene.

» Fri Apr 17, 2009 4:52 am

Whoops, I meant cutscene.

Damnit, where's the edit button when you need it?
