im only runnin on a 1280 x 1024 native res, on some scenes with less physics/ activity, i get mostly ~50-60+ FPS going ~80-99% GPU usage, but during some scenes where's theres plenty o goin on, it drops to 25-30FPS, GPU usage also drops to around 30-40%. Im assuming its because im severely CPU bottlenecked hehehe.
(mine is the SE version btw, not the vanilla nor 768MB version)

Well that sounds about right then going by my m8s FPS, and yes could be a CPU bottleneck there at times also.

I was getting those FPS a few weeks back until i installed CAP's and went back to 11.2 drivers that have fixed my issues.

RoutedScripter · Jun 24, 2011

Better get my crysis up and runnig to prepare for patch, this gonna be big , i suspect GPU driver teams to be responding with fixes/optimizations for crysis 2 as well as benchmakrs

because this is like ... a chance to get back into benchmark arena.

I didn't saw ATI using Crysis 2 yet ... or i didn't saw.

Did u get it on EA origin? I think maybe they hold the savegames? Idk for sure..

Naw, it was just off the disc.

I'm going to pray to God that my seagate will last long enough to pull data off of.
I ended up getting http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l294/freaksavior/f8f49930.jpg last night so I may end up re-installing it.

I don't know if this has been posted yet. but howcome the download sizes are different? They say over x GB but the max is 5xx MB`s?

Bjorn_Of_Iceland · Jun 24, 2011

Same question.

Yea, I was wondering that myself. I don't think the full files are up yet. Maybe those ones to download won't even work. Or they just have no idea how big their patches are? lol..
1 more day! :toast:

AphexDreamer · Jun 27, 2011

It has arrived.

Installing.

Gonna play and maybe post Screenshots.

RejZoR · Jun 27, 2011

Is patch auto installing already (when you run the game)? I hate downloading patches manually...

Patch 1.9 installed automatically via steam.

Then I installed the High Res and DX11 patch I got from TPU.

My Frames are now either in the 15's Heavy Effects, 20's outside and 30s inside.

I'd overclock somemore but CCC's overdrive is just showing up blank for me. Looking into that atm.

the54thvoid · Jun 27, 2011

Yup, got it running too. Getting 40 ish fps, everything on ultra.

RejZoR · Jun 27, 2011

I wasn't thinking Steam, i was thinking auto updater for retail version.

MxPhenom 216 · Jun 27, 2011

fast, as always at tpu

Syuzeren · Jun 27, 2011

So Crysis 2 now takes the spot as best looking game at this time?

erixx · Jun 27, 2011

thanks w1Z!!!!

alexsubri · Jun 27, 2011

tahnks! will be loading now and testing out!

Crap Daddy · Jun 27, 2011

Just a quick update. My son's playing now with the patch and the high-res pack applied. Sadly we are still on a DX10 GPU and we play in DX9 since we didn't applied the DX11 patch. The game looks gorgeous and works well, 45 FPS on ultra 16x10. This is what Crysis 2 should have been when it was launched but it's never too late. Time to get myself a DX11 card!

erixx · Jun 27, 2011

aha!

well, here a GTX470 DX11 and installing all this eye-candy... Thanks to TPU for the good speeds! It looks good so far, but still the same boring aliens.

alexsubri · Jun 28, 2011

Can anybody find the benchmark tool`s? I am currently working on a video and will be up on Youtube late tonight or tomorrow

Nick259 · Jun 28, 2011

The game looks really awesome with the upgrade. It didn't hit me at first but then when you start looking at the little details it really becomes apparent how much work they've done. Lots of the small textures are improved, the bricks are tesselated and pom has been applied to the ground. There are reflections where there never used to be and the lighting is much better. Also the water looks much more lively.

With tesselation on it brings my 5850 (at 900/1200) to a crawl at 15-30fps so i have to disable that to run it smoothly. Even without it it looks really nice.

Here is a pdf which explains what they have changed.

if you mean the dx11 benchmarking level then they said they couldn't get that released in time but it will be here soon.

oh okay, thanks i didnt read that part

D007 · Jun 28, 2011

Ouch, if you run this game on ultra with the high res textures, say goodbye to about 1/3 of your fps.
Almost seems like it's not even worth it for the looks vs performance ratio.

Batou1986 · Jun 28, 2011

It's no wonder they didn't release DX11 earlier it runs like crap, at least on my rig.
Tried sp changed all the settings around a bit and there seems to be a persistent stutter to it i ran dx9 mode maxed without a hitch and it looked about the same.
