Crytek probably won't let use use VeryHighSpec settings until the DX11 patch is out, but I want to see what other changes it brings, besides DX11 when released. hardcoe/Extreme is only HighSpec, while numerous refernces to VeryHighSpec settings have been found in beta cfg files.
Post frame rates and a comparison screenshot afterward.
In system.cfg, add this:
Code:
sys_spec=4
And then add a veryhighspec.cfg in the root folder for Crysis 2 (or whatever folder system.cfg is in)
And in this file add (probably won't make a huge difference because they're waiting for the DX11 patch to enable it), but try it anyway. raqed my frame rate in the beta.

Seems Crazy to me,
try get pplz who have got the game now to get them messin about with that kinda detail b4 the game even launched, i mean wow, way to go dude

These parts may not do anything, just like in the beta.
Basically, each of these commands links to a .cfg file (Like sys_spec_water.cfg or something).
In these .cfgs there are 3 chunks of even more console commands which actually change the graphics. =1, =2 and =3. No =4, unlike Crysis.
So, what you can do, is create your own =4 by copying =3 and making the numbers in the console commands better. So, for example, you'd change g_breakage_particles_limit=200 to g_breakage_particles_limit=400

Well actually I can't find any direct "config" folder like in Crysis 1. I'll do some more digging for a different directory.

I think I got it actually. They're using .xmls now instead of cfgs like in Crysis 1.
