PC demo had issues too so it's more on EA/Crytek's behalf than on PSN/Sony.JB1981 said:my nat type is 2 and the demo says my nat is moderate. fucking bullshit.

So here's my thought about visual quality in Crysis 2 PS3 demo (played it for about 15 minutes):
- resolution is well below 720P
- The sound is buggy (at the beginning i didn't hear any gunshot and in a couple of minutes everything goes in complete silence
- Framerate is below 30FPS. You can feel the lag even if you in increase sensitivity.
- Texture quality, for the most part, is terrible
- Lighting is flat. Just from videos i think ѝбоь 360 version is a miles better.
- Water quality is good.
- Pop-up is not that bad, but the LOD is awful (just look that the big boat)
- Overall image quality is very bad
Killzone 3 this is not. Very disappointed with the demo from visual standpoint (can't judge on gameplay yet) :/ I expected more - it's just don't look good on PS3...

Screens without them

I've played 3 rounds of PS3 demo. Looks a lot worse than Gamer settings from PC, IQ is horrible [no visible AA and subHD], framerate is unstable, but controller is quite responsive till You wont activate Nano Vision. On Nano Vision framerate goes down further and controller is no longer responsive.
Textures are bad, much worse than on PC, that same with shadows, LOD is aggresive [trees on Skyline change details 5 metres from You], reflections on water also has LOD, shadows has massive pop-up and water looks worse than on Gamer settings.
Definitely not a good showcase of CryEngine 3.
you want the ping to be above 100.plasmasd said:Cant get into a game. Wanted to test how it looked vs PC, tried to connect 5 times. I give up.
Not much, maybe 2-5 fps, but I was running it on Gamer in 45+ [mostly above 50] fps on C2D 2.5ghz, 2gb ram, Radeon 4850 so framerate wasnt really an issue, IQ was ;priceandbeans said:Screens look great without all the extra tacked on shit. Did you gain a decent performance boost by disabling them? I don't care for the AA or motion blur and could use the extra frames instead.
Considering the PC version doesn't look exponentially better, I wouldn't place 360 on a pedestal. Both look about the same to me. If there's a reason to not DL, it's that the MP isn't all that fun. That's just my opinion though (the gameplay part).MMaRsu said:Ugh.. I won't even download the demo..
Can I still download the 360 demo? Is it better?
Should be unsurprising by this point.purple cobra said:Not a good first impression, Crytek. Haven't been able to join one match yet. I've already tried at least ten times. I have a strict NAT but that's never kept me from joining a match in a COD game, Battlefield game, Killzone 3 demo/beta.
And reading all the impressions here are bumming me the fuck out.![]()

Same here, pretty smooth too.lowrider007 said:UK based here and finding/joining sessions almost straight away.
