Crysis, is it still the hardest game on your system?

Conflict0s · Apr 15, 2009

Thanks Mussels, I never knew that "i" ment Interlaced and "p" ment Progressive.

Oh gods I know what you mean, whole game ran at 25 fps with everything at medium ( fair and fine enough for me) I get to that level at it was running at 10! had to set everything to low and it was still only 15-20!

Yeah, fighting the huge (I can't remember what it was, my memory has gone) but fighting that huge blue and black boss was a lag fest. I get always 30+ FPS in Crysis on max settings (average I scored was 40 FPS very with 8xAA

) but on the last mission it was an atleast 10-15 FPS drop. I got like 15-20 FPS on the last mission with max settings. I didn't turn down no settings cause I like max settings :laugh:

I got through it and beat the game.

I find it's the same thing in warhead at the last level when you see all the aliens flying across the sky it's nearly unplayable even on low settings. I think it's the ai that slows crysis down it seems everything runs fine until you get a bunch of ai on screen.

largon · Apr 15, 2009

Those flying aliens in the last level are just texture decals, not 3d objects with ai like the normal aliens that persistently keep annoying the player. SMOKE is what kills performance in Crysis, no matter the level.

1080 = 1920x1080.
i means interlaced (30Hz)
P means progressive (60Hz)

its how HDTV's name it, as CRT TV's are all interlaced.

I cant stand gaming if my FPS ever drops below 30 FPS. crysis is a rare exception where i'll accept below 60 FPS. Games like left 4 dead - with 24xAA i go between 60 and 200 FPS.

well 30-60 is great , you have the game at such high levels and a high resolution, so 30-60 seems about right, or maybe 40-60. Shadows kills performance, so if you have shadows on very high, put it on high and sound on low and see what happens.

I thought this look funny. I was aiming for his head, but oh well.

Nope, that's Crysis...I'm in the process of beating it then moving onto Warhead.

Melvis · Apr 16, 2009

Well i ran Crysis again with the new ATI 9.4 Drivers and this is what i get.....Fraps in the top left hand corner.

Is this good for a 3850? in a oldish comp ?

O and i get 45+ FPS in FEAR 2 at 1600*1200 everything set to MAX

ste2425 · Apr 16, 2009

is there any way to turn your hud off an gun n stuff just so u can talescreenys pf the actual world?

MRCL · Apr 16, 2009

Hm I can play it with everything on very high (except motion blur, if I turn that up, lags like shit) in 1680x1050. Dunno the exact fps tho, but at least I can't identify any lags or microstuttering.

Funny thing is, I downloaded it first to look if I can play it, it was horrible. Bought it anyway and runs smooth.

ste2425 · Apr 16, 2009

yez when i played the downloaded version set everything high an got white lines comeing up every now an again but the retail version workd beautifully

To be Honest, i don't understand why motion blur is in so many FPS, how many of you guys get blurry vision from turning in real life?

Poor Nomad must have bad eyesight

Heh, thats why I don't mind the low setting on motion blur. I always turn it down on other games. Whats the point of crystal clear graphics if everything is blurry.

smoke kills performance in every game ever made ever

Mussels · Apr 16, 2009

motion blur is there to hide the low FPS. Its a trick movies use to make 24 FPS look fluid, and the console games started using it to make up for the fact the hardware just couldnt keep up.

its bled over into some PC games, but mostly it just looks like arse. (exception: Fallout 3. I think it looks great in that game)

pantherx12 · Apr 16, 2009

Could someone post a screen shot of Crysis at 1080p All settings to maximum, including AA? ( x16)

Would love to see how it looks at truly max settings.

As for motion blur, I turned it on in Necrovision last night, made it impossible to aim whilst strafing ( Fighting a room full of people)

Fallout 3 is beautiful when it works. It is the only game on my computer that crashes no matter what I do, OS install, different drivers, patches, updates, whatever. The stupid expansion pack thing made it even worse.
