Hello,

see the thread title.

Just recently there was a discussion regarding this in the "Crysis 3 Discussion" thread on Crydev, see:


http://www.crydev.net/viewtopic.php?p=1100197#p1100197

@ Crytek staff:

Can you please make the full-bitrate MOV files of the two videos ""The Hunt" - The 7 Wonders of Crysis 3: Episode 2" and "The Train Yard: Crysis 3 Gameplay Preview" available?

Could only find the 1.37 GB MOV file of the "The 7 Wonders of Crysis 3 - Episode 1: "Hell of a Town"" video so far over there:

http://www.shacknews.com/file/33817/the-7-wonders-of-crysis-3-episode-1-hell-of

But can not find the full-bitrate MOV files for the two latest videos as mentioned above .

Can you please make them available?
@reboot - They will probably surface, just like Ep1, you don't need to ask for high bitrate versions of every single video we release. They're not created on request and if they're available, they will be released.
So far, high bitrate versions of "Train Yard" and Episode 2 and 3 only have surfaced on gamersyde.com (at least couldn't find them elsewhere, they are not available on gamefront.com or shacknews.com...) and the language in those videos from gamersyde.com is french (Prophet is speaking in french language...) ...

A high bitrate version of Episode 4 hasn't surfaced so far either...

Please don't make it depend on other websites to release those high bitrate videos. Please release them yourself on a Crytek website (as soon as they are released). You're the Community Manager. Please do something about this.

Can you please please release the original high bitrate videos with english language on a site like gamesas.com/gallery/trailers for example (with an option to download the full high bitrate original video files of course)?

gamesas.com/gallery/trailers hasn't been updated for over a year. Please change that.

Or could you possibly point to another website where those videos would be available?

reboot: He quite clearly stated that if they are available, they'll be released. They're not released, ergo they're not available.
They have to be available/released in english language. Otherwise they wouldn't be available in english language on the Crysis YT channel and various other streaming video websites. So the high bitrate source files have to exist somewhere.

It's just that someone at Crytek should upload the high bitrate source files on a public website other than YT. A place where they won't be re-econded/re-compressed for streaming purposes only. A place where an additional "Download original source file" button would exist. It would be appreciated if someone would do that. Maybe on gamesas.com/gallery/trailers...

Or could Crytek maybe create a Vimeo PLUS or Vimeo PRO account for such things?

DICE for example has a Vimeo PLUS account where almost all if not all of the original source video files of the BF3 trailers are available via a "Download" button. Almost all of them even are 1080p 60fps, but see for yourself:

http://vimeo.com/dicevideo
http://vimeo.com/dicevideo/videos

Just select one of those videos and then go to "Download ---> Original .MOV/.MP4 file" ) .

For whatever reason the Download button doesn't seem to be available on the very latest video ("Aftermath Launch Trailer"). But for every other video it seems like it is available.

So, any chance Crytek could register a Vimeo PLUS or Vimeo PRO account and upload/offer their videos there?

Or just use gamesas.com/gallery/trailers for example (hasn't been updated for over a year)?

That would be amazing ) .

It's such a pity to experience those videos with such low bitrates and therefore artifacts. CE3 visuals deserve better than that .
As has been mentioned in this discussion, gamesas.com/gallery/trailers indeed hasn't been updated for more than one year. The last video which has been posted there is dated "Oct 25, 2011 / 15:08".

And as of today there is not a single Crysis 3 related video available on gamesas.com/gallery/trailers.

Why is that?

It's quite unfortunate.

Any chance someone at Crytek could please revive that page and upload all the missing videos there which have been released between Oct 25, 2011 and today and all future videos?

And please make all the source video files* available via the "Download Full Size" button which is available on gamesas.com/gallery/trailers?
*source video files = original encodes, not re-encoded/re-compressed

That would be very much appreciated.
