EA Posts Crysis 3 Gameplay Trailer, Box Art

Following a juicy debut teaser, EA posted an even more engaging gameplay trailer. The trailer reveals the premise of the single-player campaign, where New York is overrun by the Ceph and vegetation, and is cordoned off from the rest of the world by a giant dome. Prophet lunges on a mission to take back the city. Towards the end of the 2 minute video, the box-art is revealed, with a bitter fact that you'll have to wait another year before being able to play it.



The trailer video follows.

If I decide to play this it looks like I'll have the same reaction that I had playing Crysis 2: cringing while playing through the first 2 hours of the game, then eventually uninstalling it out of frustration of the direction they took with the gameplay and story.

I just played crysis 2 for the graphics really. Watched a friend play MP online and there are too many bitches cloaking and camping in corners waiting to shoot you in the back as you run past...Sorry - im not gonna play this game. similar reason why i dont really play BF3 more for that matter, Destruction 2.0 just makes every demolished building a camping ground

Well, I didn't play Crysis 2 but my brother did and he said it was nothing like the first Crysis; that it was repetitive (thus boring) and lacking a good story.

Yikes, makes me happy I didn't even bother trying the MP. In all honesty even the graphics didn't do it for me, I was too turned off by the story and the linear level design.

Pretty much sums it up. There was little to no imagination put into the game, especially compared to the first one.

LOL I just realized I never finished playing Crysis 2 either. I think I got close to the end but I got into other games instead (never finished DNF either). I have never once touched the multiplayer. I already knew that was a bust since I tried the beta version of it a couple times.

Sadly I'll more then likely pick up Crysis 3 just because.....prolly wait till there is a sweet discount on it though.

This plot is f&@/$; stupid. Shame the crysis franchise had to die. What were the debs thinking?

It seems to me this one will be much fun.... I really love crysis... both the 1st one with it 2 versions, and less the second one although it's still nice with improved AI compared to the first Crysis.

Reading the Crysis site, if I do understand right Crysis 3 will back to the sandbox style which is a great thing! Being confined to small scenarios was just a shame based on the big big sandbox from the first one.....
Also it seems that we'll be able to carry and use alien weapons.... and it would be really cool if they allowed the player to hold 3 weapons type at a time....

I also think EA won't do the same mistake again and launch the PC version without DX11... I think it might have held back a lot of costumers like me, to buy Crysis 2.... I at least love to play games not only because of the game play but graphics is something that pushes me into it.... Minecraft ? Meh... Will never touch this thing.... BF3 ? I'm in!

Crysis died with 2, when they decided to dumb down the engine for the sake of consoles.

Lets hope the DX11 part for PC will be properly optimized this time.

thought crysis 2 had one of the more stronger single player campaigns for a fps game last year, which isnt really saying much i know. Multi was awful

Horrible feeling they're rushing this one to market like EA do with everything so it will end up just a horrible shambles of console pretty graphics with no substance

Metro last light should hopefull be the new pc breaker

EA/tek should be giving this game out for free to ppl that bought Crysis 2 on PC.
Out of all the things that ive felt where a rip off Crysis 2 stands out as the one that pissed me off most $60 bucks for half ass game regardless of all the DX11 rage.

Anyone saying that it had a good SP is full of BS, the MP was unplayable due to all the hackers which killed the MP community from launch.

Picture related its that awesome SP everyone talks about, First playthough BTW.
