Oh hai! (questions inside)

Post » Fri Dec 31, 2010 11:52 am

Just thought I'd sign up on this forum because... wow... I'm really looking forwards to this game. Might be GOTY for me if things go well for it.

When it was announced I didnt really care because I thought it would be a PC exclusive, but when I heard I would be able to play it on PS3... I got REALLY excited. Loved the first Crysis (on the lowest possible settings I got about 15fps)

Just got some questions:

1. How many different weapons are there in the game? One thing about Crysis 1 was that there was only like 5 different types of firearms, which did get a little dull after a while. Has it been increased this time around?

2. Framerate on consoles? Graphics mean nothing to me (although CryEngine 3 looks really nice). If the framerate is solid then I'm happy. So what is it on consoles? Thanks guys!

(Also, anyone know about interships at Crytek? I'm probably gonna go for a degree in Games Design and an internship would help me out. I'm in Europe/EU so getting to Germany or Crytek UK wouldnt be an issue ;) )

No, it's actually 30.

Yeah pretty much all console games run at 30 fps. With the graphics and detail I'm really surprised there wasn't any frame rate issues in the demo. I'd attribute that to their new engine that runs everything in real-time. Really incredible stuff.

I'm gonna say it now, it would probably be a good idea to install the game to your 360 hard drive (not sure if you can run PS3 games from HDD but you probably can). I say that because it's going to be spinning the disc constantly to run in real-time. To make it easier on your system and the disc, install it and run it off your HDD. Halo Reach caused huge problems for tons of people including me. The disc cracked and wouldn't read and I had to install one of my friends discs to keep playing.
