Heres mine at 1440x900 all medium,no aa/af.

Framerates low,but it seems smooth enuff,i may have to turn some more stuff down tho'

the shaders is where its at, to me it looks like AA is integrated into the shaders as it looked ultra smooth on high but jaggy on low.

can anyone with an x1950pro please confirm that enabling AA makes the game run at <1fps 100% of the time?

Wouldn't it be a heck of a lot cheaper to get an OEM version off Newegg? I believe with their OEM OS policy you just have to buy ANY piece of hardware, so you can buy a $5 cable or something and save $95 off the retail price.

the gameplay is nice, its pretty cool using super strength to slap people around and tear down huts like the increadible hulk

oh yes, deffo get an oem version if u are going for dx10.

im using the oem version of vista ultimate. and i have even installed it so many times with diff hardware that it no longer registered with my key, one quick call to Microsoft and it was sorted. really very easy, so i have no worries about this when im changing my setup near to the new year

Did you try Super aa with adaptive off? Crossfire also wored with AI off in CCC.

disabling AI also disables CF

DaMulta · Oct 27, 2007

No CF will still be on.

So I think, AI does other things I think. CF is a totally different setting.

zekrahminator · Oct 27, 2007

I tried turning the settings up for shits and giggles. I think that Crytek got Crysis to work on SM2b cards by making a "custom" shader mode. And so, the only thing I really gain by turning up settings is a farther draw distance, since shaders and textures are locked at "custom".

Maybe I shouldn't have sold that 2600XT...

. Oh well. You can't argue with 45+ frames per second on Crysis...

.

Chewy · Oct 27, 2007

^^ that dont look half bad Zerk, some AA would help but AA in this game pwns cards! lol

anyway got my card sold for $320 now

Casheti · Oct 27, 2007

I have more but I didn't wanna whore up a massive page.

1280x1024 All Low Apart from Shaders on Medium.

Oliver_FF · Oct 27, 2007

I think this is one of the first games that i've been unable to play respectably at High settings on my "old" 7900gtx.

In that respect i'm glad i have the 8800's and 2900's a miss, i'm currently waiting to see how the new cards do.

i am running it 1920x1200 with settings maxed out, lowish fps, but suppose ill have to0 drop the settings a bit if i want to play at that high a rez, plus i didnt overclock my card, just stock atm. looks great tho

poor bloke, and talk about a rapid cremation lol

Runs great on mine too. mandelore can you have V High settings as i cannot and be leave it's due to me having a 512MB card so can you confirm this please ?.. TY

EDIT: Changed
Res 1600x1200
Setting High \ Shader Medium which changes AA as well to off

..
AAx2 Not tried it higher yet did not seem like it needed it.
CCC Settings.

AA App controlled
AF App controlled
Narrow Tent
Cat AI Advanced
Vert refresh disabled
AAA Smooth \ Methered Multi Sampling.

And as for the game i'm Very happy with it just wondering when i can afford to get it now lol...

Maybe its just me.. but that screen looks like crap. Is that supposed to be water coming off the cliff face? :wtf:

JC316 · Oct 27, 2007

In all honesty, I am not that impressed with it. The demo is heavily buggy and I don't like the way the suit functions, it's too difficult to change out abilities. The floor, or a mountian, or a box frequently vanishes into thin air.

Time Shift seems to be a much more polished game with a better suit design.

I hope that the final product is better than the demo, but so far, it seems very ordinary.

Ketxxx · Oct 27, 2007

^ Many games rely on eyecandy these days. Look back at oblivion, without the eyecandy, its quite a boring game. Luckily there are true games like STALKER. Sure it looks a bit blocky and unrealistic vanilla, but apply some decent eyecandy and realism mods and its a work of art.

[I.R.A]_FBi · Oct 27, 2007

plays nice ...

[I.R.A]_FBi · Oct 27, 2007

one complaint .. too many controls ...

zekrahminator · Oct 27, 2007

That would be the draw distance sacrifice due to me having everything on low

.

I turned everything except water quality, texture, and post-processing up to medium and BAM it's a lot better

.

Still, I know I need to get a 2900XT, a proper silent heatsink/fan, a new PSU, Vista, and possibly a new motherboard (for better OCing and space for the proper heatsink/fan I have in mind).

Well it turns it off for me

Rob! · Oct 27, 2007

Even on low I must say it doesnt look too bad.

Anyone play this on a 2600XT yet?

L|NK|N · Oct 27, 2007

Im not upset about Crysis it is a beautiful game, and of course it is just a demo some more optimizations will come as no will doubt driver updates for our video cards come also. As far as tweaking goes, you all should consider checking up on this thread (starting with post #320) at tweakguides.com. Koroush Ghazi has started some preliminary tweaking with lots of screenshots comparing DX9 & DX10, and detail settings. There is no doubt in my mind that he will soon have a great guide and more things to give us insight.

Ketxxx · Oct 27, 2007

Runs good for me, everything on high, 1280*1024, avertage about 15FPS, even then it plays very smoothly. Turned shadows and something else to low (something to do with lights) and shot up to 30+FPS. However, the option that has something to do with lights currently causes horrible banding so has to be left at high quality or its like looking into thick smog. Details later, got a party to go to

Easy Rhino · Oct 27, 2007

so what has played this in dx10 and can take screenshots???

psychomage343 · Oct 27, 2007

To tell you all the honest truth i think the call of duty 4 demo has far better graphics then crysis, i guess it's just me but i'm very very impressed with call of duty 4 i can't wait til it comes out. the crysis game has all teh makings of a very cool fps but none of the graphics quality, i've got my 320 8800gts at 600/950 and all settings maxed at 1280x1024 on my 2.93 4600am2 and it's great, smooth, quick not laggy at all
