Crysis 2 Gameplay!

[wolvers]

There's certainly a possibility that they switched to a city so that the consoles could cope better with the environment, and it's a bit of a shame. Having said that, there should be more destructible environments in the city.

 

[matt_fsr]

Looks nice - yeah, more destructible environments would have been a bonus!

and will allow players to use a streamlined nanosuit in Stealth or Armor mode

Console nubs unable to handle 4 suit modes? This makes me sad.

The loss of the strength mode is annoying - I used to use that to steady my aim - turns almost any gun into a rapid fire sniper rifle...

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

I wouldn't be surprised after the bitchy backlash from the PC community over Crysis 1 they never develop a game to truely stress hardware for a good while.

I wouldn't be surprised either.

How dare my PC not run it max detail! It's badly coded, the developers are rubbish, moan moan moan!!!
*repeat*

You have to release graphically inferior games on PC these days to stop people crying.

 

[Relentless81]

I'm getting more and more concerned about this game, as details come through its starting to look more and more like a console game, I just hope they're trying to keep the PC version quiet so as not to upset console owners

some of the stuff in this thread is a major fail

1) Crytek have explicitly stated on a number of occasions that the PC version will have things the console versions don't, one of these is better graphics

2) there are more than 2 suit modes seeing as you can customize the suit on the fly to have certain characteristics, also they combined the modes because it got annoying having to go into speed mode then quickly in to strength mode to get the best jump, it's not because of the console noobs.

1.As said "better graphics" can mean little since even if it is full proper 1080p on the console, being able to run 1920 x 1200 with 2xaa will fulfill the "better graphics" claim. That and perhaps a biggest draw distance or nicer shadows. hope I am wrong it has full havok physx, full dx 11 features, etc that will bring a 5890 or gtx480 to its knees on max graphics at 1920 x 1200.

2. ANd probably still is because of the console noobs as they couldn;t have handled having to select between a choice of more than 2 modes.

hmm doesnt look too impressive and gameplay looks like gears of war rather than crysis 1, also AI looks just horrible!

 

[mame]

I don't think there will be much difference between the 3 versions.

 

[Phil2008]

One thing is for certain though, rendering a box of building fascia is NOTHING compared to having a whole jungle with plants and trees. Unless they -really- up the ante when it comes to effects, post-processing and models this one will be less demanding then the first game for sure.



- Ordokai

Thats cos all games now are console priority so games cant be that demanding anymore

 

[Strepsils]

If it worked that way, PC gaming would be amazing. It doesn't work like that.



I think thats a console version as well. Remind me of this for some reason , more than it reminds me of Crysis 1

It looks a good game and no doubt I will get it at some point but from what I have seen it doesnt make me think Crysis at all.

My prediction is that all 3 versions are very similar, the PC version having the edge but with high hardware requirements.

That video just made me fire up Killzone 2, those graphics :O

 

[mart280]

sorry delete, wrong thread

 

[EpicCarnage]

it all really comes down to gameplay

 

[Lightnix]

**** guys, they're not shamelessly rehashing the first game! Wait it's on consoles?! ****ing travesty!

 

[p0rks0da]

Watching console gameplay with analog sticks makes me feel dizzy for some reason.

It's because of the FOV settings, on consoles developers zoom the view somewhat because it feels better when you play on a TV 5-10 feet away. When you play it on a monitor up close though it makes everything just feel totally wrong, as if your face is floating in front of the body.

 

[MrMoses]

Hm, I liked Crysis and Crysis warhead but I was't impressed with the video. Maybe it was just that level.

me too, the video looked like a crysis mod not impressed at all

 

[Swifty123]

On that video the graphics looked kinda similar

 

[phill1978]

To be fair though, "graphically superior" means nothing. All games are graphically superior on a PC, due to the increased resolutions, framerates and driver-forced settings we use. So it may still be the same as the console version anyway. If so, I won't be pleased. Let's hope I'm wrong, and that it'll actually push development like the last one did...

not just that,

running on a monitor (or 3 ) via DVI presents a better picture than a TV via HDMi

 

[phill1978]

Not all console games are 720p (See Gran Turismo, Tekken 6, Ridge Racer - All 1080p and 60fps).

which all feature very average / below average graphics

only wipeoutHD is coded nice on PS3 and runs High Resolution... BUT, its scaled to 1080p the real render resolution is actually some oddball slightly lower resolution!

the next gen consoles will really push high resolution and good graphics.

i dont see any of this being a problem for real gamers though

 

[rancid_elf]

Looks good.
