So anyone played it yet?

Thoroughly enjoyed it myself, fantastic game. For me, it completely buried HL2. This is seriously tempting me towards getting a quad CPU, I really wanna go through it again in Delta!

Something handy for you guys with uber PC's.

Woz'nt from play.com was it? my cod4 is still AWOL

I'll be picking this up from town on Saturday, I have lost all faith in on-line ordering

Think its a bit pants imo, an hour in to it and im bored Reminds so much of FarCry and that game bored me aswell. Looks pretty an all but doesnt float my boat.

I'd definitely say give it more of a chance. The gameplay completely changes from Farcry to Crysis about halfway through.

Aye after a hour or so I thought it was pretty rubbish, but really enjoying it now.

Still much prefer hl2 and episode 2, but crysis gets allot better after a couple of hours.

Pisses all over HL2, much like FarCry did

Other than the god awful bits with monsters which sadly was more than half the game [Farcry]

I prefered HL2 to Farcry, but this definitely pisses over both Farcry and HL2 for me. The aliens in Crysis are complete ****ing awesome btw. Awesome sound, awesome animation and graphics all worked together so well to make them pretty much the best ever alien enemy in any FPS I've ever played.

BTW, WTF at this review: IGN AU

6.5 Sound
Hang on, the game has sound? At least it wasn't offensive... and a couple of the guns were kind of meaty.

8.5 Graphics
Raise this to a 10 if you've got SLI. For the rest of us, there are games out there that look better while remaining playable.

Biggest pile of bullshit I've ever read.

I rate IGN's reviews about the same as PC Gamers, a badly written piece of shite by some one who clearly knows nothing about games and reviews a game based on the hype and the game makers. Not on the quality of the game, they also have no idea what it takes to make a good game, and why games like Hellgate London or Just Cause are shit and fail in nearly every way possible.

So basically they hire any idiot off the street who clearly aint a gamer or if he is, then he is 12 years old.

End of rant...

Im using that cfg you posted russ, omfg how nice does it look and run. 35-40 fps and running not too bad.


Anyone running it in DX9 and XP?

Anyone know how to fix the keyboard/mouse in crysis?

If i have windows at 2560x1600 i can move the mouse in a 3" squareand if i lower the res it is so unresponsive and off mark its a joke

i have to use the bottom of the arrow to point at stuff coz the arrow/ where the game thinks the arrow is is so out

and in game i press W and 20 seconds later he gos nuts and runns all over the place!!!

EDIT:

OMG the keyboard is so unresponsive, and i am not talking a little 2/3 of the time it does not even regester my presses! how the fook can they release a game like this?

lol - so ur enjoyin the game re0?

It performs fine on mine till I get to the ICY bits and then it's like a slide show

Re0, try holing down left-alt and hitting enter. that should drop it into a window, do it 1-2 more times till it's ful screen again and it should be fine from then on.

Great game tbh, nice and long too. Allegedly part of a trilogy too, so two more coming, well happy.

eye very good, the jelly aliens made my chuckle, but apart from that excellent, best game of the year so far from me.

maybe when i install cod4 it will change, but you cant beat stealthing into a base and getting out with out been noticed

Stealth?? I just shoot everything!

rofl thats so unsophisticated

I have had my gun on signal-shot up until now, and its just two to the head of anybody that gets in my way

Until i lost all my sweet guns, i had muchomucho amo, but i guess thats the fun in sandbox games, you can play it the way you like it... like burger king.
