Two new crysis vids (running on g80)

I've recieved some exclusive videos (who knows how long they'll stay exclsuive for though) and information from what you could call "an inside man". Besides these being the first public videos of the G80 actually running a game ( as far as I know ) - These are also the first real-time DX10 Crysis videos. You read it here first :-)

This journalist who shall remain anonymous was not allowed to say too much, but he may have already breached his NDA by telling me about the G80. The NDA is lifted on the 8th of November, yet you are hearing and seeing this all now :-)
The videos were taken at a G80 presentation in Paris. When I asked for more information from mr.anonymous, he said the only thing else he could say was that the G80 will definately be worth buying. The same person also said he had a chat with the lead designer of Crysis who I believe is Bernd Diemer. Apparently, everyone there was drunk, so I'm sure there was some wild information flying around :-).

awesome! thanks guy

Are the vids cutting out for anyone else about 20-30 seconds into them? The game looks awesome especially the fly through and come up from the water and it's silky smooth to boot.

Somebody ban this man for 10 second long videos that cut off before anything happens.

I would realy suggest you hold off and wait for the refresh, in about 6 months you will get a better performing card with whatever problems that are sure to surface with the 1st gen dx10 cards ironed out.

I wonder how much the GTS version will cost because the chance of me finding a PS3 right before christmas is higher than me being able to afford the GTX version.

TheGreatDave · (10-30-2006, 04:01 AM)

...meh. Nothing really exciting there. I'm sure it's very impressive technically, but it's not putting out something that grabs my interest.

link no worggy :(

these videos look the like ones that we saw a month or two ago. maybe the same demo but in dx10 but it's impossible to tell the difference with cam footage.

kevm3 · (10-30-2006, 04:45 AM)

Technically, this game is amazing. But stylewise, it doesn't appeal to me very much. I hope they allow this engine to be licensed to other developers.

They'll shop the engine around I'm sure (just as they did the original CryEngine). But I wouldn't be surprised if few hop on board. Chances are Crytek will be the only ones that can push their own tech to this degree. For an engine to catch on it has to have quality tools, pipeline, support etc. UE3 is nice technically, but the reason Epic is running circles around other engine providers is because they have excellent tools and support.

why does every fps look like you're floating?????????? you may as well be speedy gonzalez the amount of ground that guy was covering.

The better the graphics become, the more jarring that kind of stuff becomes.

At one point he was swimming... there were arms coming out and pushing him forward in a breast stroke, but the shadow was just of a guy standing around.

That made me laugh.

dx10 (shader model 4) is more about big performance increases, much like the jump from shader model 2 to 3. That might sound disappointing, but it will take one dx10 card to do what 2 or more (didn't they have crysis running on quad sli systems at e3?) high end dx9 cards performed like in crysis.

Wow, now that you've mentioned it, it kind of sticks out.

The framerate is definitely smoother though, running on the G80 and all.

While I agree that most fps games do have that floaty feel, part of it could be that he might be using the speed enhancement that makes the player extra fast. At least I HOPE he's using it.

The more I see of this game, I less I care.

Kabouter · (10-30-2006, 06:14 AM)

Jesus christ, this looks amazing.
And finally, for the first time, silky smooth.
Still not getting it at release though, it's the kind of game that ships with a graphics card, so I'm sure it'll come with that when I buy a new graphics card in '08 or '09.

Me too. When you see other games with better framerates like Gears of War, I tend to say to myself "wow that's very reachable now".

Ehm...this was silky smooth.
What more do you want frameratewise?

Something alot better than that. I mean it was good for unfinished software, but the finished thing better be a lot smoother.

LOL.

I am sure Gears will allow you to roam a 100 KM square islands with everything including houses, terrain and palm trees destructible. Oh wait...

Get a grip and don't post non-sense. Crysis is on a quite another technical level.

I am sure had you seen this movie running @ 60 fps you wouldn't have said that what you said.

If the game was 60 fps of course I wouldn't have said what I said. That was half the point.

True that. Although Gears does have more detailed normal going by Crysis screenshots. However taken in account the scope of crysis it is a negligible.

Warm Machine · (10-30-2006, 08:25 AM)

From what I can tell a game like Gears, Metal Gear, etc is doing everything in a far more brute force method than Crysis. The Cryengines rely on height fields and instancing technology for the majority of their environmental graphics. These methods of rendering are quite a bit faster and much more efficient in the memory department. They also LOD quite nicely so visual quality can remain quite high. Not to say the other games don't have their own tricks, the same or otherwise, but we haven't seen Crysis knock out a big city type environment, only landscapes.

At the end of the day Crysis looks stunning and I look forward to it.
