Crysis 3 Graphics Will 'Melt Down PCs' - Crytek

Crysis 3 will push PC gamers' rigs in much the same way as the first game in the series, Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli has revealed.

Crysis is infamous for being one of the most demanding PC games ever at launch, with PC spec requirements becoming a barrier to entry for many - so much so that it became something of a running joke in comunity circles.

“That joke will be resurrected again with Crysis 3, I’m quite sure about that,” Yerli said during an EA livestream. “There are brutal expectations around the PC version of Crysis 3. So this time we promise to melt down PCs.

Part of the brutality of the original Crysis was due to poor optimization. Sure everything looked great, but it was sloppy.

It wasn't badly optimised! :laugh:

It looked as good as other games on high on it's medium and low settings.

People complained they couldn't run the game on very high, but that's because very high has about 4 x the amount of everything compared to high! :laugh:


I played Crysis on a 4650 for goodness sake :laugh:
