You know why? Because everyone is crying about framedrops etc, or their rig cant run at very high. Crytek wanted this

They might be regretting this decision when UE4 games release and look just as good but run smooth as butter.

Cevat Yerli: "We will melt PCs".

Man wasn't kidding.

Everyone was crying when Crysis 2 came out that the graphics svcked and it didn't take advantage of the best hardware. Now, Crysis 3 looks amazing and is melting GPU's and people are crying about performance. Irony at its best.

The only reason I'm "crying" is because the beta ran silky smooth at 70+ FPS but now the game is constantly crashing for seemingly no reason and I haven't changed any settings at all.

I'm not crying because they game looks amazing. The only thing that bothers me is getting drastic dips in fps for no obvious reason. I have a 7950 and I'm running everything at medium settings so I can run at a steady 60fps. I will be crossfiring within the next month so hopefully I can run this at high or very high at 60fps no problem.
My problem is I'll move 1 inch in a specific spot in the campaign and I get a 30 frame drop. The scenery didn't lchange and enemies aren't on the screen. It only happens every so often but its annoying. I like a steadier frame rate. I can understand if I went from an enclosed space to a wide open vista but not when I go from hallway to stairway.

Did you try turning off V-sync? I know for me it was either giving me 60FPS or dropping to 30 on very high. No in between. With it off I'm averaging 45-50 FPS on a GTX 670.

I don't know what is wrong with your card, but my 7950 runs everything at Very High around 55-60 average...but it crashes for no reason. Just says Crysis 3 Has Stopped Working, even when I put my card back to stock clock speeds and lower the settings the medium.

I can run it on Very High but I want to average 60+ fps with my 7950. What OS do you have? I was having this problem earlier with games crashing for no reason. I think it was a ram problem because I swapped out some sticks and it hasn't done it since.
