A future that's still away? That's the definition of future. Thanks for the stupid thread.

I suppose you're a game developer who's looked at the code. Good luck incriminating every marketing agency on the planet.
 
Many of us have been there before... with Oblivion... so we know better than to have all of the visual settings at max, or to even attempt trying it out on low-end hardware.

But a scam? Come on.
 
Though I would like to play it at max settings with my 8800GT, I'm at least thankful that I can play it at all. (Believe it or not, it does look pretty good at medium settings.) I'm sure next year, when better cards are out, we'll see Crysis in all of its intended glory, but you're making it seem like this game was Battlefield 2 (when it had all of those issues with bugs).
 
The more distant the better. Why is it bad for a game to cripple current hardware? If game developers made games for current hardware, the games would be released already outdated.

Your opinions are unfounded and immature. Judging by your demeanor and writing skills, it's safe to assume you aren't a game developer or programmer. You have absolutely no idea how good or bad the game is coded.

Congratulations on your five minutes of fame. Now go take your Ritalin.
 
You're acting like the game can't be played at all. It can, though not as well as you'd (obviously) like.

The same situation happened when TES IV: Oblivion was released, and when Doom3 was released before that. No one here is screwed out of playing Crysis.

Look at it this way: Crysis wouldn't be selling as well as it has now if you couldn't play it right out of the box.
 
Not just because you have no idea what you're saying, but that you started a thread to do it. We don't tolerate bullshit here. No running your mouth like a 13-year-old whose mom just denied him Crysis when they were at Target last night.

You still haven't even put forth a well formed argument regarding how you think designing a graphically intensive game is a scam.

Your now just raving about, calling people idiots, and throwing an all out temper tantrum deleting all your previous posts. You need an afternoon nap.
 
i think you guys need to take a chill pill and stup being so attacking... jeez

Doom 3 ran fine for me on high (not ultra high) settings on decent (read not uber late$t) hardware.

Even with the latest high end hardware (except perhaps the *very top* highest level) Crysis runs like shit.

You're right... but the OP made it seem like it was a scam, and that it's totally unplayable.

I'm just saying that it's not the first time this has happened, and that it won't be the last time.

Just like you couldn't run Ultra High and max resolution in Doom3 when it came out, you had to make some graphical compromises. The same has to be done with Crysis now.

We are in a stagnant Video Card market, and Crytek has no control over that. nVidia released the G80 core back in 2006 and there has been no significant development since then. If during 2007 or this first part of 2008 nVidia or ATI had pushed out a truely next gen part offering a 80-100% leap ahead like the 8series was over the 7 series, you probably could run Crysis at very high settings.

My computer is over a year old and I'm very happy with how Crysis performs and the image quality, and the game play!. Granted I can't run it at native resolutions, but it's certainly not a "scam", there are no fraudulent business tactics being put to use by Crytek. That's insanity.

You attacked Crysis. Think it's fair that Crytek can't come in here and attack back? Get a clue. Everyone here agrees that you're spouting off baseless claims coupled with uninformed opinions. You only "tried" the game (demo?), and you create a thread saying it's the worst coded game ever made? That Crytek should go to jail because it's a huge marketing scam/crime?
 
yup, it is my opinion ...

everyone has their opinions .. and no one can take other's opinions away
 
We know it's your opinion. We're saying your opinion wasn't formed properly. My guess is you played the demo for ten minutes, read numerous threads about what people didn't like about Crysis, convinced yourself you were an expert on the game and developer, and decided to condemn the two (as well as their marketing team).

What did you expect us to do? If your opinion seemed informed and valid, we'd be glad to share our opinions. That is, our opinions about the game, not about your opinion.

No it's not your opinion.

An opinion would be if you said you didn't like the game, if you said it wasn't fun, if you said you didn't enjoy it, if you didn't think it was worth the money.

Accusing Crytek of engaging in fraudulent business practices, scamming customers; borders on being classified as libel. But... IANAL.

The issue is for Doom3 my comprise was to run in High instead of Ultra High.
In Crysis, an overclocked quad processor with an 8800GT couldn't run medium settings and get out of the teens when it came to FPS. Its a matter of degrees. BIG degrees in this case.

Maybe their mistake was shooting for hardware 5 years down the road instead of 1.

With my old 8800GTS 640, I run with most everything on high, but at a lower resoultion of 1680x whatever. I know several people with smaller 19" 5:4 and 16:10 displays with 9600GT's and 8800GT's that run native resolution with high settings getting 20+ and hitting 30FPS average. The [H} reviews reflect my observations as well.
