Wait, are you saying C2 graphics are smoke and mirrors?

Also, BF3 SP will most likely be linear for the majority of the time. Battlefield at its core is a Multiplayer game and the SP is nothing more than a diversion from DICE to explore something new.

Meant the competiton. Uncharted, Killzone. That sort of stuff.

Battlefield at its core is a Multiplayer game. True, but visuals are sometimes lowered to accommodate for MP. Bad Company 2 also gave the illusion of improved realism/visuals with the whole destructible buildings, when it's really pre-baked ****.

And what we have seen is from SP only, so yeah I'll wait until the game is released. I honestly don't care if it's better or not better then Crysis 2, though.

Oh, makes sense.

Except from what I understand BF3 will get MP shown at E3 so the wait won't be too long.

the real fight would be crysis with extreme texture mod vs BF3.

Yeah, C2 has the best GFX. On 6 year old hardware. Full CE3 on DX11 (Not C2) looks great, but I bet FB2 beats it in versatile and realistic visuals, and physics/destructibility.

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. If you think that battlefield series is another cod clone then you are complete idiot and *******.You haven't played any battlefield game yet! Battlefield is a war game.Its not fast pace noob game like cod.You need tactics to play or shoot in battlefield

Some say Crysis 2 is the best looking shooter they have ever seen..

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


battlefield 3 is made for pc while crysis 2 is not

so graphic wise crysis2 will not look as good as battlefield 3 will.

bf3 is made on dx11 and crysis 2 is made on dx9 when they release dx11 you wont see the real dx 11 power

am i the only one who still thinks it feels exactly like BC2?

I duno - i think BF3 will either: EPIC WIN - or MEGA FAIL...

It just bothers me - looks like Medal of Fail and BC2 combined...

MEH Crysis 2 wins for me

Right now I'd say BF3 but when the Editor comes out in the summer I reckon Crysis 2. Modders usually make some awesome graphic stuff

sadly ...BF3 will mop the floor with crysis 2 on multiplayer

Exaggerated desaturation doesn't mean good graphics.

Same thing with BF3 : light work is awesome, but, in the current state, there aren't enough colors to make it as realistic as C2.

Visually I would say that BF3 will win as it is getting pretty strong development time on the PC. The tech demos for Frostbite 2.0 have been pretty impressive for the technology they have incorporated into real-time. Especially their dynamic global illumination system and destruction.

funny - CE2's tech demos looked way better though

BF games have never ever been about looks

Crysis 2 is better. and the only reason for that is, is that BF3 is just brown. that's the only color you see. and Crysis 2 has all kinds of colors which makes everything look much more alive, even though the textures are pretty rubbish.

is that BF3 is just brown. ?. not..




look last bf3 trailer..

BF3 graphics see overrated at the moment. I have a 32" inch flat mounted as a monitor, and watched full screen hd footage of bf3. Textures are great but draw distance some lighting and etc are all poorly done.

Of course the game isn't done yet.

OP is 12 year old. Move along, typical "GRAFFIX vs GRAFFIX" ****.

How are BF3 graphics overrated? It looks astonishing from an Pre-Alpha footage. What's wrong with draw distance? What's even more wrong with lighting? Yeah poorly done herp derp Pre-Alpha footage.

Are you even serious? Your are trying bash CE3 with a freaking MOD for CE2 lol.

Fact is if you compare Crysis 1 and Crysis 2 in the day of release, C1 will be look worse than C2, the face rendering, lighting, many things is just better than in C1. So if you want prove something by posting a MOD for CE2 you need to compare it to MOD which will people create for CE3 when SDK will be released.

THEN it will make sense to post links like above.

Idiots comparing Crysis 1 mod vs Crysis 2 Vanilla. Wait until CE3 SDK and Sandbox. NOW we can talk about mods.

The problem with Battlefield is that in BC2, the singleplayer had great graphics, while the multiplayer looked like total junk. (Besides the desert maps like Atacama Desert...and even then I'm guessing it was all of those dust and particle effects that made it look nice. If you got rid of those it would probably be less than impressive). The flaw here is that, Battlefield singleplayer is total junk gameplay wise...say what you want but MW2 had a campaign 100X better than the BC2 campaign, no denying that. They need to focus on making the MP graphics much nicer...instead of showcasing the part likely no one will play.

Oh and fix the damn shader resolution, BC2 had such low res shadows, almost remind me of HL2. They were half decent when playing in DX11, since soft shadows were enabled, but when Black Ops, a far inferior game graphically, can pull off nice shadows in DX9, there is no excuse to require a DX11 card to have shadows you can look at without feeling sick.

Another thing, fix the damn water. Water in BC2 looked like ****. It didn't look BAD, but was basically this no physics, no ripples static **** that flowed in one direction. Add the nice appearance of Crysis 1 water, with the physics and ripples of Crysis 2 water and I'm happy.

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.

Indeed.

battlefield 3 pre-alpha version looks already better than Crysis 2 retail. Why?
Because Battlefield 3 is being mainly developed to PC. PC has much more resources for much better graphics while in Crysis 2, the game was mainly developed for consoles and had alot of restrictions when it came to graphics. That's why it didn't blow away Crysis 1 graphics, that already are 4 years old.

worst argument ever - because its build on the PC? Jesus -_-

STOP COMPARING FU_CKING GFX - TRAILER VS CONSOLE PORT IS A STUPID THING TO DO!

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

did you play Crysis 1? There is absolutely no way in hell that Crysis 2 has better graphics than Crysis 1, Warhead, or Metro 2033. Get your eyes checked. Even after DX11 it still wont look better than those games, because Crysis 2 used cheap low res textures.
