I Think i Understand why Crytek is Taking so long with Dx11

Post » Thu Nov 11, 2010 6:20 pm

First, in my opinion, i don't believe Dx11 is going to come out this month, nor this season, i think crytek is going to wait it out till MW3 and BF3 come into the game and wam! Dx11, Crysis 2 sets the new benchmark for PC's and steals the thunder from BF3 and MW3, this way they keep they're game in the market up to date, and they make huge sales even towards end of the year, and if they manage to pull this off, Crysis 2 will go down in the book for a long time.

You just forget that if they would release it then, people already stopped playing it. Maybe some people who have it will patch it and play again but no new sales would come from it. To get more sales with DX11 it should be released this month while it is still 'hyped'.

nope.

by that time nobody will be playing this game. the dx11 patch isnt going to make the game look leaps and bounds better, plus the single player svcks anyways. So theres really no incentive to play crysis 2 when bf3 comes out. BF3 takes the cake in so many ways anyways.

Have the agree with the rest. Releasing DX11 will not qualify C2 to be a new game. My money will go towards BF3, and i will stop play C2 for 3 reasons

1: They anol raqed the pc community
2: They sold out and are now EA's b1tch
3: They waited way to long to patch and fix the game (Watch in 2 months time we will still be waiting)

I love the people who say Battlefield 3 will be the ender of all games, you don't know this.

You've seen limited gameplay from trailers that they hand pick, don't get me wrong the game looks great and i'm hyped for it but don't put all your faith in that one game.

I dont. I put all my faith in the studio as they said, they are developing for the PC.
I never fully understood the importance of this until seeing Crysis2.

because if its anything like bf2, then its instant-win. Even if they just made bf2 with a new engine + textures, it would still be amazing.

At the end of the day, nobody really cares about bf3 SP. its the MP that makes the game great. the fact that they are making a co-op SP campaign, is bonus, and makes it more enjoyable than any other shooter FPS.

It might not be right to put all faith in bf3, but battlefield seems to be our last hope in the near future. From what we have heard from the devs, they are heading along the right path.

Completely agree, I still play BF2 alongside Crysis atm, it's a brilliant game and I love the teamplay it evokes.

It just seems like so many people are banking on it being the best thing since sliced bread, it could easily fall short of expectations.

Maybe I'm just being critical and trying to not get my hopes up since I've been let down many times before :P

How old are you? MW3 hasn't even been announced...

And yes, i'm doubtful of BF3 too, simply because DICE will refuse to release an SDK, which means no community made mods...one of the main things that made BF2 great in the first place...

Wow, your in the dark, we all know bf3 has been announced, and if you haven't noticed a CoD game comes out every year, and yes it has been announced, whether or not you've heard is your problem, it was either pigs in space, or Mw3, i think they went for the Third, and by the way, i'm 19

NVIDIA paid them 2 million dollars to use the game for promoting there gtx590 and other dx11 cards. Which is the only reason they are adding in DX11. ITs taking long because it was not supposed to happen.

Well mw3 is going to be epic fail with only 12-15 yr old console kiddies buying it (most likely same as mw2/crapops) and will most likely have crap graphics

BF3 will be good (i think, since bf games are good) and they dont port from consoles

Crysis 2 is ported from consoles and has lower textures + lower overall graphics/physics etc then crysis 1, so no crysis 2 wont be a new benchmark for pc when a 9800 can run it on extreme

What 98 are you talking about? 98's can run it at extreme i admit, at 10fps, crysis 1 was heavy, but thats because if you monitored your system, it only was taking 60% of your gpu, and 60% of your cpu, i admit crysis has the best graphics......with the exceptions of only with mods, it had assistance with mods because it had a public engine, and with the release of CE3, i think there will be modding in the community, and indefinitly people will be making jungle maps, and there is were i believe the CE3 will surpass CE2, because CE3 takes full advantage of multi core rendering and pushes your gpu to 100%, and i can almost guarantee you, you can fit more details into CE3, and make the most photo realistic map ever, and it will only take about half of the requirements CE2 demanded.

And Crysis 1 scaled terribly. Like seriously...going from a crappy HD 4830 to a GTX 260 Max OC you only gain 8 FPS in benchamrks. (22 to 30 FPS). Why the heck would someone spend (at the time) so much more on a card that will make a game playable on slightly less AA on a 4830 playable on a 260 with 4xAA?

And either way...Crysis 1 vanilla Very High graphics weren't that good. Sure the palm trees looked good, but that game had it's fair share of **** textures (oh god don't even remind me of the low res Nintendo 64 rocks in C1). Texture pop-up rampant and indoor graphics were vomit inducing. Why it ran so bad is really beyond me. Some sun shafts and palm trees shouldn't bring a GTX 285 to its knees. (And yes the water looked good, but that was the only part that actually ran reasonably well.) Sure the game had its jaw dropping parts, so does Crysis 2. But C2 has fewer parts that make you want to throw up.

Dude, i will show you my System runs, i have 460's in sli, quad core at 3.6, i get 40-50 fps, crysis 2 90-100 fps, and im honest, i built my system around crysis, we all did, but the fact the main reason why was because the game was horribly made, does not mean it was the best, the game make my system stutter not because its beautiful, (because without many mods, its not that great) but because it was optimized for a freakin' super computer at the time, and to back up my claim, Cevat himself, said he was worried when they released the game claiming , OMG, no one can run the game. Try running Unigene, suppose to be the most advance graphical achievement benchmark to date, and i can guarantee you you will get better fps, at 1920, than what crysis 1 gives you

That's pretty good scaling actually, the hd4830 was about 20% slower than a gtx260 at stock.

Check this out.we don't really care how's S.P. in bf3.The thing that makes bf is mind blowing mp gameplay.Plus these things in dx 11!.
Also dice already anounced that pc mp maps will have 64 vs 64 player support on pc.Means old glory and war of battlefield 2 is gonna return.Besides game has additional catagory of figher jet aircrafts.They will be eye candy of dx11.
who knows maby we shall be able to pilot war ships and sumbarines in see of battlefield 3!
Battlefied 3 will seriously kill crysis 2 even if crytec try to add dx11 in game in future.
Now I have original crysis 2,i have paid for it.I want f.....ing sandbox editor 3.I am sick of playing crysis 2 mp.I am playing bfbc 2 mp now.

What? No? The GTX 260 performs slightly better than the Radeon 4870. It's about twice as fast as the 4830.
