If you liked OG Crysis, give Crysis Warhead a shot. It takes place on the other side of the island and you play as Psycho.
Yeah I played that too! Didn't draw me in quite as much, but enjoyed it still.

I actually think I liked Crysis 2 and 3 better. Just more action and less BS.
I think 1 was showing off engine. 2 n 3 were about the game instead.
I dug out my old Crysis disk the other day. Seems after all these years it still has issues reverting back to 24Hz. After a lot of tinkering (and crashing) I finally got it up and running at 4K with no FPS limit.
It still looks pretty nice, but not even in the ballpark of #3. It might check some boxes the later ones didn't, but it doesn't look anywhere as nice 95% of the time.
As far as the game goes, Crysis 1 is terrific for about 50% of the game. Once the aliens show up, I don't like it much at all. The sequels do a much better job with that experience. While they're very linear, quite a bit of Crysis 1 was, too. The whole second half especially. There are only a couple levels where Crysis truly opens up like Far Cry did.
I love linear storylines. Titanfall 2 albeit short was probably one of the best linear games ever produced possibly in ever haha
Game devs opt for this openworld bullshit now that gets old really damn fast. Time to go back to hard hitting and linear storyline games.
Why would we have hardware capable of so much more than consoles...and go numb and limit games to what consoles can do?
You want your hand held and be spoon feed...booooooooooooooring.
My machine could handle Crysis better, than it did Crysis 3. The latter was literally unplayable, so I put off playing it, then ended up never going back to it.Crytek, even if it could will never do that again. Crysis 2 and 3 proved that. They scaled them back compared to the first one to make them have a broader appeal and to work on consoles. The first game didn't sell well enough because many people avoided it simply because they didn't think their machines could handle it.
the devs in TF2 were amazing...but i cant make it past 1 hour in Linear COD games. My money is ready for the next Star Wars since i trust Respawn!I love linear storylines. Titanfall 2 albeit short was probably one of the best linear games ever produced possibly in ever haha

Because you have a different taste in games? The first crysis and warhead are my 2 all time favorites ever made! Something with the story really peaked my interest and of course the graphics took years just to matchGood video.
Garbage game is still garbage, I'm not surprised. I remember when this game came out and everyone had boners for it on this forum, always confused me.
i agree crysis 3 i totally lost interest in...it really felt like it was on rails with zero storyCrysis 3 was a perfect example of "consolittis"...shooter on rails ,no open sandbox....boring as hell.
Good video.

Just watch: their "award-winning" AI never gives up, after you've been seen by them only once. Even if you remain unseen for twenty minutes, they will be there and keep shooting the ,moment you stick your head back up.
I mean, that beats the average game where you go on a killing spree, hide in a bush for a minute, and the AI completely forgets about you.
So your man in the army has no other duties to attend to, and has all day to go after JUST YOU?
Sounds realistic to me.
Far Cry 1 owns Crysis 1.
I remember the game looking far better than this. I think I remember the feeling of wow this looks amazing. But looking back now its doesn't look amazing anymore compared to the contemporary. We have come a long way.

The first few maps were good, but it quickly devolves from there. When the mutants show up it's worse than when the aliens show up in Crysis. Crysis overall is a much better game than Far Cry is. Seems like Crytek learned a lot from a gameplay perspective between the two.
I'd certainly pay for a remake / remaster. Crysis 1 was amazing and I'd love to see a game destroy computers like it did every few years. Too bad kids start crying when not every setting in a game is ultra/max.
this is exactly waht happened to me. Always trying to get a better system then so much time passed I was like eh...My machine could handle Crysis better, than it did Crysis 3. The latter was literally unplayable, so I put off playing it, then ended up never going back to it.
Want to sell that poster?I your ever seen the pre - order box that came with the poster as bought new by me like every thing you see ,

Did you not even look at the video? Your cpu would not even be able to hold 50 fps in spots. Your cpu would be even worse than my 4770k at 4.3 in this game as you have nearly identical IPC and you are clocked lower.Yeah crysis is still hard on the CPU, i loaded it up the other day to try on my new GPU and could only pull about 110FPS on my 144Hz display, one CPU core was maxed other 7 were sitting there doing nothing, GPU only loaded around 60%.
Guess a 3.9Ghz Ryzen 1700 still not enough to max crysis at 144fps.
Old wives's tale that is false.Regarding Crysis, it will never play well because the game is not well optimized.
Old wives's tale that is false.
Exactly.The game is very well optimized for the time it was crafted. Dual Cores was the norm and even then people were like .... nahh well never need two cores.
I disagree when over 10 years later the fastest cpus on the planet from an IPC standpoint cant even maintain 60 fps.Exactly.
It was ahead of its time for tech. That doesn't mean that it's unoptomized.I disagree when over 10 years later the fastest cpus on the planet from an IPC standpoint cant even maintain 60 fps.
Lol that makes no sense. The fucking game does NOT even keep 60 fps on hardware that is orders of magnitude faster than what was available back then. If it was optimized worth a damn then it would have scaled with faster cpu IPC. A modern Intel cpu at 5.0 ghz dropping into the 50s is a goddamn joke for a game made when Pentium cpus were the norm and Core 2 was cutting edge. And even from a gpu standpoint it is insanely demanding for how outdated it looks. At 4k and 2x MSAA it cant even keep 60 fps with an oced 1080 ti when there are modern games that run as good or better and make this look like pure shit from a graphics standpoint. IMO anyone saying this game is well optimized is foolish. There is a reason this game is a popular meme you know. Anyway I will stop there as no way in hell we are going to agree with each other.It was ahead of its time for tech. That doesn't mean that it's unoptomized.
