DX10 Ver is very pretty

That it is, very much like a new version of far cry, pity its so buggy and runs like shit at 1920 by 1200 with everything at max and dx10. To me it feels like a beta.
Still very much looking forward to the full game.

I cant believe you expect to play it at 1920 by 1200 with everything at high...

That's Stan for ya :-)

Maybe because thats what the Devs said a 8800gtx and a nice duo would do ?
And of course the fact I can play every other dx10 game so far at those res's.
Still as I said before in many ways this still feels like a beta so I am sure there will be improved performance in the full release or at the least after a patch.

hope it will work on my pc :S !
dowloaded allready gonna try soon

Just finished the demo, one of the biggest demos I have played in a while, great fun as well. Very much like far cry.

Do you notice that the Devs give system specs with no ref to resolution ... an 8800 GTX may do but only at 1280x1024

Just found this they where using a Quad Q6600 @ 3GHz . Looks like Crytek have pulled of another GFX crushing achievement ... FarCry Dejavu Stan

I never did like FarCry, this game looks like it could be decent though. Need that other stick of ram asap!

As is always the case there is very little performance difference between res's on the 8800gtx, must be some bug with my system for it to perform so badly. Maybe like the quake wars one where if you use dual screen and 8800gtx you get 8 fps.

"Maybe because thats what the Devs said a 8800gtx and a nice duo would do?"

Yeah I know, but they NEVER said at resolutions like that. Read their forums, there's been a lot of devs answering peoples spec questions.

"And of course the fact I can play every other dx10 game so far at those res's. "

What do the other games have to do with it? Crysis is leagues above any other DX10 games out there. Crysis has definitely raised the bar in GFX. I know you spent a lot of money on your PC, but they still don't last for long. That's the nature of the beast and all that.

Look even that link that spit posted shows there is little drop in fps for the change in res, its the settings that do it.

I heard/read somewhere where they said on a nice duo 8800gtx rig you should be able to play at 1920 or so res, but of course you have read everything they have ever said, silly me I should know better by now.

I didn't exspect 100 fps, I ain't some idiot, but at the same time me and MANY others didn't exspect the piss poor performance on highest settings REGARDLESS of res you run it at. I have been a hardcore pc gamer for over 10 years now, I think I know how it works don't you ?

As I said I am sure its a bug or it will be optimised more once released.

Sorry if that was a tad snapish but to say I am in pain is to say that Hitler had a bit of a temper.

O_o

Dunno about you but even with everything on very high and 1600 x 1200 on a 8800gtx on dx10 and vista it doesn't look as nice as what i've seen in the screenshots. The trees and grass look like something out of HL1.

What ????

LOL

I was thinking the same but didnt reply.

Either you must have the eyesight of a blind man, or you are playing another game.
Because even on medium settings there is NOTHING in crysis that looks like half life one.

The prettiest game I have ever seen.

It looks amazing with everything maxed, but runs like cack.

Trying maxing both AA and post processing. It's gorgeous but dog slow.

Just not optimized, from what I have read sometimes it only uses up to 30 percent of the quad cores power, and the devs themselves say cpu is more important to this game than GPU.

Here is hoping they have time to finish tweaking it before its released.

The first time I punched a tree and had it land on me and kill me, is a moment I will remember for a long time to come.

I'll try and get a screenshot to show you, mine must be running in directx cack or something, looks horrible.

I just had to upload this:

As expected, ridiculously polished and oozing class - just utterly brings my system to it's knees. I would say that there won't be PC's to run this properly until early next year

I ran this on low at a ridiculously low resolution and it still made my PC cry like a little girl. Sound was out of sync by about 10 seconds as well which I found amusing!

Aye I cant say I would agree that its ridiculously polished when its so clearly unfinished.
For those of you who want a extra few fps or just a smoother time, when the game is running press control alt delete and select the exe and set it to high priority or realtime [I am using high].
I found I got a extra few fps out of this and it was allot smoother, still doesnt come close to using all my cores though

Seems you can play in dx10 mode under XP too.

Stan was the 1920 bit you were looking for, 2048x1536?

Just call me super sluth

Why are you calling it unfinished? The gfx in this game are beyond what PCs can handle at the moment, you're trying to get too much out of your PC imo.

No the fact it doesn't even use half of the duo's power is what makes me call it unfinished, the game itself feels finished just not optimized.

Its not even close to the performance they said we would get on a duo and a 8800gtx, but as I said many times its a pre release demo so lets hope they have enough time to tweak it before its released or that its just a old demo they had lying about the place.

YaY 5 stars I am a winner !

nah just a 2000 post spammer

Wtf that cuts me deep

AHHHH, to be in club 2000

Well with it going gold unless from the time they compiled the demo till now theyve done some work what youve seen is what youll get.

I think people are just underestimating it. I'm sorry, but running a game like that at such a high resolution with everything on high is just unrealistic.

I hope the performance is improved of course... but I just don't see a big boost happening.

Some demo unlockes have been found - more weps and some vehicles
