Hmmm. Alot of aliens in that trailer, really didn't enjoy fighting the aliens in the first two games. I want to kill people dammit
Yes, the aliens in Crysis fucking suck. You'd think Crytek would actually play the game and realize how fucking much it sucks fighting them. Not fun.
Like I said before, they sucked in 1 (to the point of making Act 3 insufferable) but were good in 2.
Did anyone else hear the motherbrain scream from super metroid in that trailer near the end ?
time stap of 1:30.
1:30 is motherbrains ACTUAL scream
Odd thing for me to notice I know.

That's an odd thing for there to be in there. Where was it in the Crysis 3 trailer. I feel like I should have noticed that.

I wish I knew why Crysis 2 looked like one of the best games running un my 360 yet at the same time I hated the look. Can't explain it but this has that same look. My eyes, I don't understand them.
Good graphics, mediocre art direction. You're normal.

Wow, the graphics look great in motion (even if a lot of things are going on and the trailer is over-edited); it still reminds of Crysis 2 but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Hopefully it isn't more than just Crysis 2.5 and we see a proper gameplay trailer later.

This just looks like someone used the editor to insert random trees into Crysis 2. It's sad that they've taken Crysis in completely the wrong direction from a level design perspective, but I guess it's got to be able to run on consoles.
Cool, how is the bow? How do swamp and desert dome look in comparison?

I know wtf.
I was expecting something like Viva Pinata or Virtua Tennis. Not something that looks like fucking Crysis of all games!
I still don't see what is mediocre about the art direction. It looks fantastic and features a lot of interesting designs.
Both Crysis and Crysis 2 have excellent art direction.

Then you've probably played very few fps games.
Some people say art direction for IQ... I know I know it's shameful.

Yeah, I hate these super quick cuts in trailers. :/ What was there looked great though. I'm guessing that was PC footage?
I fear for the console framerates though. Sounds like they're squeezing in new features but I hope not at the expense of how the game runs. I loved Crysis 1 and 2 regardless. Loved the more open areas that let you take on enemies how you wished instead of following a rigid set piece with no options to tackle the situation how you like.

The more and more I post on neogaf, the more I think other gaffers think it makes them look cool and smart to convince themselves they hate awesome stuff.
Play Crysis 1. You'll see how bad the aliens can be.

Now compare that gameplay in that trailer with this

I was hoping C3 would be a step up but I see they're continuing the trend of going backwards

You mean their marketing has to step it up? Sure, the trailer was choppy as hell and I would've loved to see more gameplay, but they've clearly stepped up their visuals. It pains me that people don't see this.

Some of these guns take up over 1/3 of the screen which already has a FoV of like 70.
Tomorrow? I am sure you can do it faster than the dev.

Hail, peons, for I have come as ambassador from the great and bountiful Blueberry Butt Explosion
What is there to get? Compound bows are awesome.
Technically you can mod pretty much anything in a game. So why not just stop buying games all together and make your own Crysis game.
The Scarab takes up a lot less than it did in 2 so hopefully the other guns follow suit.
Or Far Cry which is much MUCH worse than any Crysis game.
Now THIS is bad art direction

Atleast make a trailer where you can see something, to much flickering.
To really see how this compares in terms of gameplay to the other ones we really need a gameplay walkthrough. Things like multiple approaches, versatility of suit powers, and weapon customization don't fit well into a trailer. This trailer may not have been as good as it could have been but we should probably wait until E3 or Gamescom to see how it compares with the rest of the series.

Can't see shit. Who cuts trailers like this?

I said gameplay not visuals. The gameplay is much more dynamic in Crysis1/Warhead, more freedom and a bigger playground.
Nanotech (or at least the suit) was retconned to be of alien origin in Crysis 2.
Now how in the fuck do the koreans have suits in Crysis 1? Cheap knockoffs or otherwise?
I know, taking crysis lore seriously is silly

The same type of people that make commercials. POW, in your face, everything we got in 30 seconds!!! I'm surprised we're getting any gameplay this early, to be honest.

Seriously, what were you expecting it to look like? Honest question.
It looks like a sequel should. Like its previous game.

Throw me in team "This looks like a C2 expansion pack". I'm sure the full game will have an enjoyable, lengthy campaign and new additions to MP and shit, but it has that yearly-sequel feel where it doesn't seem like its own game. I would expect a gameplay reveal trailer not to bother wasting any of its incredibly short run-time showing off weapons and animations we already saw in C2.
Why is this line of thinking being applied here? I don't get it.
If this were the case wouldn't that make nearly every game an expansion these days?
What makes this look like an expansion pack versus any other shooter?
To be fair, everything was retconned simply because the writer of Crysis 2 had nothing to do with the original. He took elements of the first game and forced them into a completely different, unrelated story.

I think it's the bit about how keeping the game in NYC allows them to reuse a ton of assets (even with the vegetation overgrowth), and that the enemies are the same from Crysis 2 (despite the time skip). I think most were hoping they'd abandon the urban backdrop as it was seen as a big departure from the first game. They've promised quite a bit of variety, but their PR is only showing areas that look strikingly similar to Crysis 2.
