Crytek CryENGINE 3 to be On Display at This Year's GDC Expo

[TheMailMan78]

Mine runs ok on mainstream but sucks if I go any higher.

 

[AsRock]

This is gonna suck. Cry2 is already one of the best looking engines and almost nothing can run it very well so how is Cry3 going to be any better? My guess is it's just going to be developed for the consoles because they are butthurt about their games getting pirated.

Maybe a better story and plot possibility's HAHAHA. Sorry but Crysis had the graphics but thats all it had IMO. The whole reason i did not get it as i am truly sick of games that are just graphics.

 

[ShadowFold]

I like Crysis. I just don't like how it's nearly impossible to get a solid 50-60FPS.

Wierd I play on very high and it gets choppy on mod levels with trillions of shit going on but thats it. Maybe there is something wrong with the xfire profile

Your not the only one buddy.

As you can see Shadowfold has the same issue as me.

I'm not saying you don't have issues but its odd because you both have more powerful systems than me and are having trouble running crysis.

Maybe because you have Intel Core2Quad q6600 @ 3.00 gigabastards lol...

Your running a faster CPU and RAID 0. I bet thats it.

I haven't changed my specs in a while I'm not on raid anymore too much data loses and running at 2.4ghz to save power.

Also my gpu is on a 4x pci-e slot because the other two slots are broken.

I was wondering when someone would notice I wrote gigabastards

Isn't Crysis more CPU bound?

 

[DrPepper]

Hell no its more gpu. I did a benchmark ages ago between the difference of 2.4ghz and 3.8 and it was 5fps. Wheres as oc'ing my gpu a little was alot more beneficial and a second gpu should boost it up at least 50%

Hell if I know what the issue is then. I just did a clean install.

my system at 1440x900 runs crysis at ~35-60 FPS but depending on scene crysis lol's at my system i think i get a steady 250FPS at the loading screen.

 

[CheetoLover]

crysis dosnt scale for shit, there was a screenshot that showed fps at 2 diffrent res's one very high and one low, same quility settings, the diffrance was like 5fps.......

its just a playable demo of the engine..........horribly un-optimized at that.

i agree if makes any diffirence i run 16 AA 16AF so i suppose 35-60FPS isnt bad. Considering

 

[ShadowFold]

You have quad 9800's, ofcourse it's gonna run good for you

So true. Companies that develop for PC ONLY (unless they are MMORPG's) lose a shitload of money because of piracy. It is the entire reason Epic won't bring GOW2 to the PC. They don't even properly support GOW on the PC.

I actually bought both Crysis and Crysis Warhead. Worth the money IMO.

 

[ShadowFold]

I do buy all my games too. I bought Crysis a few months after it came out and Warhead at launch. I just could never play them all that well.. I thought warhead was suppose to be optimized but they lied..

lol

 

[CDdude55]

I really hope it does not! Consoles can hardly reproduce anything close to CryEngine2 and me, as a PC gamer, wants CE3 to be a huge improvement over CE2, not a dumbed down version of it. Unless by consoles they mean PS4/Xbox720, of course.

I actually agree.

They are talking about the PS3 and 360 tho, But i dont think the new engine will be a huge improvment over Cry Engine 2. Crysis already looks really nice, just needs to be alot more optimized, which i hope they acvheve with this new engine.

 

[Raptor_i]

I think the real money is in the Dunia engine which FarCry 2 was built on, i mean it looks amazing and runs incredibly well on a variety of systems.

Now if we can only get a good game built on it, GOTY material right there.

yes that's right Farcry2 was lacking the game play but it was very good looking .... i hope they're not gonna leave Dunia to die.

and CryENGINE3 will make every body cry "on their PCs" then upgrade it.

FarCry 2 maxed out, actually played much worse than Crysis maxed out in my PC, except the last boss in Crysis that would run at 15 fps at times (restarting tha game used to solve the issue for a period of time, a memory leak probably). Average frames were higher in FC2, but low frames were lower and MUCH more noticeable than in Crysis. Much less playable is a good summary.

 

[ShadowFold]

I think Dunia is geared more towards ATi since I can run FC2 very well[1920x1080 4x AA 50-60fps all maxed](too bad I don't like the game all that much lol) but I only get 20-23fps in Crysis with 2x AA all maxed 1920x1080.

 

[D007]

So is this going to make games look better and run on consoles

I'm actually worried that they will sacrifice pc graphics, to make the same format work on sub par console systems.
I bought a pc because consoles couldn't compete.
otherwise I'd have a ps3..lol..
or xbox.. or both..

if they start dumbing down things, so they work cross platforms.
I won't be gaming on pc much longer.
I hope that's not the case..

 

[Sc1mitar]

Warhead ran half as good as FC2 for me at lower settings

Warhead-Mix of High/Med, 2xAA,4xAniso, 1280x1024-avg 22-25 fps
FC2-Mix of Ultra/High, 4xAA,8xAniso,1440x900-avg 45-50fps



oh and btw, im pretty sure your eyes can tell the difference between framerates, atleast i can tell the difference between 250fps and 125 in COD4. Could just be the q3 engine though, as it gets alot smoother at very high fps.
