Crysis 2 PS3 Will Hit Graphical Ceiling

Salacious Crumb said:
People are really talking about which will look better, PS3 or 360?
It's like arguing over who the tallest midget is. Who ever wins, they both lose to the PC.
By an enormous margin.:lol

It must suck not getting those graphical showcasing PC exclusives anymore. This post is the result.

So you don't thing ND are skilled could create an engine that scales? Hell if I spent the whole day I could create an engine today that scales depending on which hardware you have.

I think ND almost certainly could create a very impressive multiplatform engine; I think they are an exceptionally skilled developer. Crytek have already proven that they can make extremely scaleable games that push multiple hardware configurations; but now they are goign to show if they can do this on the PS3 and 360 as well

Fair enough but I just find it laughable that some people are so misinformed to think that just because crysis tech on pc does alot more better than uc2 tech on ps3 that it automatically makes crytek better than ND.

Nah, I think DennisK4 was referring to the awesome gameplay in Crytek games.

Indeed.

While the last 1/3 of the game was somewhat disappointing for me, the first 2/3 of the game, particularily the Onslaught and Assault levels, was the finest, most exhilarating, FPS experience ever.

Made linear corridor shooters forever obsolete, as far as I am concerned
(actually, I still enjoyed the linear Metro 2033)

Thats highly highly debatable. Maybe in the FPS genre because its pretty weak and has been for a while but definitely not in the overall scheme of things.
 
I dont know about that. Half Life 2 is linear and even with the sometimes underwhelming gunplay I still find it to have the best gameplay around.

It's certainly far more impressive than anything on consoles, but that's a discussion for the witcher 2 thread.

As for there being no more PC exclusives, well of course there aren't outside of genres/mechanics that don't work on console. There's no one to offer moneyhats and there's no first party. You'd be dumb not to put your game out on console if your game's not too complex mechanically.

*Edit*

Sadly this has resulted in the extreme dumbing down of PC games for them to work on console.

Whats the bet that you will no longer be able to modify your weapons, change ammo type, or change firing mode in Crysis 2. It's already extremely obvious that the levels have been 'streamlined'. Placing the game in a city essentially turns it into a corridor shooter with a very high, sky coloured ceiling.

Well, you could debate it.

You'd be wrong, but you could still debate it as some kind of funky devil's advocate sort of thing.

I actually ran out of ammo during that part, so I had to cloak and ambush them with choke-holds and strength punches as they "swam" around. It was annoying, yet oddly satisfying. :lol
 
I really don't get why people love the gameplay of Crysis so much, I only played the singleplayer on the lowest difficulty. Sneaking doesn't work good to me, shooting isn't anything special. And while the game tries to make you feel really bad-assed you just aren't since your suit drains energy very fast. I liked the singleplayer, but not much more then that.

It's one of the best games of this generation, not sure why it needs to be the best for "Crysis has awesome gameplay" to be a true statement.

Thats not what I'm arguing at all. Hell I wouldn't even argue if you said crysis was the best fps of this generation. Im was simply debating the completely ludicrous statement that Crytek are "much much better" devs than ND and SSm like dennisK4 kindly pointed out. Crysis is a great game but it is not better than gow3 or UC2.
 
They need to give direct feed shots of the console versions. As it stands now it looks no better than BFBC2 imo. What will their AA solution be for consoles?

Well, obviously this is where we disagree. While I think that UC2 is a very good game and GoW 3 quite enjoyable and certainly visually impressive for a PS3 game, Crysis is simply a better game than those two, IMO.
 
Crysis was a buggy, unoptimized game with boring, generic gameplay and terrible, terrible, terrible AI.

In what alternate universe do people think Crysis is a good game?

The one where you're a bad person (this universe, where the vast majority of the people who played Crysis thought it had great gameplay)

Also Crysis having "generic" gameplay. :lol

How can gameplay be "generic"? oO


And the game was definitely not boring, had lots of fun with it. Wasn't a GREAT game but it was good.

Definitely not as boring as say... any Pokemon game :P
 
Crysis 2 PS3 have hit the graphical ceiling, but Crysis Wii can't even get a erection.

PC will go into space and never stop.
 
You people are all crazy, arguing like that over immeasurable things. :lol

They're all good games - and all good developers - the rest is subjective and pretty irrelevant.

The majority of people who played Crysis didn't play through all of it because they either got fed up with the crappy performance and bugs or they got bored and uninstalled it.

What was special about Crysis' gameplay? Seemed to me like a typical FPS.

I didn't find a single bug through my playthrough btw... as for performance... well... you can have crappy performance on any game if you don't have the hardware for it.

Open environment, combined with suit powers make it the most dynamic FPS ever. It really is indisputable. No other FPS offers as wide an array of tactical solutions for every human encounter as Crysis.

"Typical FPS's" aren't games where you can jump 30 feet in the air, shoot things from several kilometers away, and break apart buildings part by part with your bare hands, with a variety of multiple approaches to clear an area.
 
Crysis 1 was a shitty game. What are people talking about having the best gameplay. From what I played you use armor shoot enemies until your health depletes, and then use speed to run away from the fight and the ai was to retarded to follow me.

I agree

Also hitler was right, the beatles suck and sex is for losers.
 
Are we sure this isn't a bad translation of "Hitting a graphical Sea lion"?

There was wildlife in Crysis so it's not a huge stretch.

That just tells me that you're a shitty player, not that Crysis is a shitty game.

Actually I thought the performance of Crysis was 'ok', the problem was everyone wanted to run it at max settings on release and complained than it ran slow even though Crytek said that they designed the engine to stress gpu's for years to come @ enthusiast/max settings.

With regards to the gameplay I didn't think it was amazing, my respect for Crytek come from how much I loved Farcry, I think it has much better gameplay than Crysis and it also felt alot more open due to the design of the game (good use of islands), when I'm in Farcry I feel like in a truly open world able to approach my enemies from practically any angle, I rarely had that feeling in Crysis.

"This one is better."
"No, this one is better."
"Sorry, but it is not. Like I said, this one is better."
"Nonono, it most definitely isn't."

Well, that's certainly an interesting and insightful... What did you call it? Debate?

You could reduce every debate ever had to that if you tried.While it may have been kind of boring its definitely better than some of the shit i've seen on here.

Except none of that was needed. All you had to do 75% of the game is lure the enemy and funnel them into an area you wanted and wipe them out with ease. Worse case scenerio was needing ammo. You could also jump in jeep ride up to a bunch of enemies hop into the turret and mass murder with ease. Good FPS far from some game changing evolutionary gameplay except for the graphics.
