I personally liked it as an Xbox launch title. Kinda reminded me of playing something like Double Dragon, or a beat-em-up, which can be good simple fun.Ryse isn't a quality edition to anyones portfolio.
We need a single player game in the Hunt Universe.
They might come cheap. Insomniac was bought out for just $220 million. Crytek should be half that.There'd be no reason for this. Crytek is a dying company that hasn't been very profitable lately and has abandoned the only IP anyone ever liked from them. What would be the net benefit of this transaction? More bodies? Microsoft is stacked with talent after their acquisitions, acquiring a mediocre and dying studio makes no sense.

Man, idk who was cutting that deal at Insomniac but they undersold themselves so damn much. Absolutely insane. I would think insomniac would be worth like 700M minimum after SM sales.They might come cheap. Insomniac was bought out for just $220 million. Crytek should be half that.

Their engine technology is some of the best in the business. When you see how much 343 has struggled in that regard an acquisition like this definitely makes sense.
But then they already have iD tech (but I'm not sure that engine scales well to open world games?) so who knows.
Imagine ID tech mixed with the Cryengine... remixed into Forza tech and that merged into Halo Slipspace...
MS was impressed by Crysis Reboot??? Game looks worse than original almost 15 years ago
MS was impressed by Crysis Reboot??? Game looks worse than original almost 15 years ago. Also, and it runs like crap, even with VRR
again, i don't see it... show me a Cryengine game (outside of maybe Ryse) on any console that looks amazing and runs decently well. and older versions can't even run properly on PC
The idea that games that are made with their engine don't run well on PC is an outdated one. Hunt Showdown runs very well as do the recent Sniper Ghost Warrior games.
The original Crysis was a pig to run for a very long time because it was a game made with future hardware in mind but the earliest versions of the engine had fatal issues with memory leaks and multi-threading (both of which have since been fixed since Cryengine 2).
i dont see a waste in crysis. so, far, xbox has limited shooter games (gears isnt full shooter game). Crysis is a good pc shooter game, outside of halo (doom is doom). Having that game as single player shooter is great. You can use is to counter horizon games, since both games are graphic demanding games.What a waste of money for MS IMO - if true.

their own games are the ones that do well on console, but even there it is hit and miss. Ryse and Hunt are the only 2. Crysis remaster ran like ass on any console with a multitute of issues to boot, any older crysis version ran like ass on any console. Sniper Ghost Warrior (any one) runs like ass on console... Prey runs like ass on console (except One X and Series X, although One X was just about ok)
every time I see a Cryengine splash screen I am automatically thinking "oh, this for sure will not run without a pile of issues"
one of the Sniper Ghost Warriors games was such a mess that you couldn't even really snipe in it because the draw distance didn't allow it and your targets would be invisible xD all while having literally 4 to 5 minute long loading times and a terrible framerate
even if the engine is amazing, we at least can say that third party devs who license it almost always deliver a mess of a game that has shitloads of issues. (I mean it took 2 patches for Prey in order to be somewhat playable on PS4/Pro)
Buy all those devs who shit-talked your platform, that will teach them.
its more of a cover shooter game. while that is nice, i dont get the feeling of battlefield, battle front 2, cod, or any shooter in that regard. I like to go rambo, get killed like a noob (happens alot).
