Holy shit guys, I'm nearly crying now It's been 11 YEARS, and Crysis STILL haven't been topped
>one solid blob of polygons Minecraft has better physics
Jose Williams
>random poorfag appears everytime
Luke Roberts
what does it matter how it looks if the game is fucking terrible?
Cameron Lee
>those textures >same car used everywhere >the completely flat snow
i mean its probably not much behind crisis but cmon mate
division has good lighting/shaders and thats it.
Joshua Green
this shit looks like the god damn movies
David Sanders
never played battlefront
does the foliage move and stuff like in crisis?
Michael Ward
have 40+ hours in the game and confirm its shit
Oliver Morgan
>shitting on textures lmao
Christopher Edwards
Funny saying it in a Crysis thread
>inb4 but Crysis was good XDD
John Jackson
>those jaggies AAAAAAAAAAAHHH
Justin Powell
I feel like people have forgotten what unmodded Crysis looks like
Elijah Cooper
again, nice lighting
everything else looks crappy
Hudson Martinez
It just doesn't look that good user
Eli Jackson
-no mod tools -no single player -tps bullshit -shitty, genuinely unnecessary RPG aspect -extensive repetitive gameplay -paywall after paywall -not the same level of interactivity
Isaac Cook
I'm sorry to have to break this to you, but those textures are tiny. Like 16x16p tiny. They're just looped.
Look at the knuckle of the glove. That's a texture they couldn't loop.
Alexander Bennett
it does
too bad the game is literally shit
Owen Torres
Crysis Was good you underage memefag
Landon Price
oh right Fallout 4 is the Crysis of this genreation lmao
yeah buddy im sure you are right thats why this is the only game with such detailed textures this up close outside a cutscene and in actual gameplay ;^)
Tyler Miller
Why would you play it unmodded?
Ethan Martinez
I'm just looking at your picture, m8. It's very obvious.
t. 3D fag
Zachary Brooks
Because it's incredibly poorly optimized as is
Mason Morgan
crysis was a generic and shitty fps but it was ahead of its time with its visuals. how you don't realize this is beyond me.
the division, on the other hand, is a generic and shitty ubisoft game with visuals that are par for the course for its time. quite the difference.
Isaiah Gomez
more like getting btfod hard by Ubisoft kek
Evan Ward
>button has the same texture as the leather Tom Clancy is rolling in his grave. How could they do this to him?
Matthew Kelly
I like Crysis 2
Tyler Taylor
Because we are comparing it to other unmodded games you fucking retard
Luke Peterson
this, crysis is the pinnacle of "looks good but runs like shit"-trend we have.
Alexander Jones
the button has the same material as the leather
t. actual 3dfag
Tyler Richardson
What did he mean by this
Blake Cooper
u wot
Are you playing on 7 year old laptops??
Camden Powell
>muh division
Robert Young
Your mind becomes blown when Snowdrop is just a heavily modified CryEngine.
Anthony Young
>Snowdrop is a modified CryEngien nah, then The Division wouls look amazing and run like shit instead of looking amazing and running amazing
>muh static garbage
Angel Murphy
>messy picture with lots of visual noise and nothing to guide the eye visual design >>> graphics
Gavin Wood
>implying crysis wasn't
Connor Cook
>visual design >>> graphics topkek no
Charles Miller
It's not actually destruction, it's dynamic parallax mapping. Which is really unfortunate since it would've made the game marginally less awful.
Noah Morris
>CryEngien user, do you seriously type out what other posters say when quoting them?
Jose Martinez
and it looks like ASS lol
Adam Flores
i type faster than selecting it and clicking
Leo Jenkins
actually yes
even tho just avoids the subject of the discussion
Jonathan Watson
>he was too stupid to play with the engine
Connor Robinson
>What the fuck went so wrong with gaming??????
It went wrong when they made Crysis a dumb sci-fi game with a jumpy suit instead of a a Vietnam War game.
Levi Lee
nope pure graphics will always win and look better visual design only looks good at certain moments at certain angles at a certain set-up and it will only get close a tiny bit to actual graphics
Evan White
God damn it man i loved TD got the season pass an everything played at 1440p in max detail but god damn it just like any multiplayer PC game it got infested with cheaers day fucking 1 so god damn hard it killed it. I kept playing regardless but watching that game die was the final straw after almost 2 decades of PC gaming just turning into a fucking pussy cheat fest. literally made me buy a PS4. Shits my single player station now.
Chase Richardson
>AT-AT in Endor why
Jacob Nelson
>I've never actually seen Star Wars
Jason Ramirez
Crysis was the opposite of generic.
It had some improvements over 1 but they shit the bed badly in many respects.
Crysis 2 and 3 looked amazing and run really well, Crysis 3 still looks great.
Dominic Parker
That's literally the worst shot I've ever seen of crysis, bar none. Picking awfully hard there.
Owen Evans
I'm not ya boy,
But there needs to be a balance. Visual design is a huge part of making a game appealing, stylization is a huge factor in graphical design. I think this is what he's talking about, the art style and not necessarily it's portrayal. With that said you are correct, it's extraordinarily complicated to design non-linear segments to showcase certain graphical elements, and in many cases to do so is a detriment to the actual gameplay value.
What I believe, and especially now is that striking a balance between the two will become increasingly necessary as things like AR and VR hit the market, whether it be commercial or consumer the resources, in most cases, aren't there right now. With increasing resolution there is also a lot of resource draw. In order to prevent a schism it's necessary to compromise on the photorealism for better lighting, which is the most important component of all graphics.
Jayden Garcia
shut up poorfag.
Owen Bennett
>Crysis 2 and 3 looked amazing and run really well, No Crysis 3 runs like shit. Even a gtx1060/rx480 still struggle. Also it fucks i5 CPU.
Chase Sanders
It runs at over 60 FPS on 1060 at 1080p. 1060 is a midrange card, so this seems fine.
>No Crysis 3 runs like shit. First time I hear of this. Crysis 3 runs great. I could run it on high settings on my fucking GTX 750 and first generation i7.
Henry Morales
I'm posting from the first page, only having read the OP and not the content of the thread. But I agree with you, although textures and other graphic settings have been topped to nearly ten fold, the physics placed on
Gabriel Reyes
it wasn't in any of the war scenes tho
Matthew Rivera
I'm posting from the first page, only having read the OP and not the content of the thread. But I agree with you, although textures and other graphic settings have been topped to nearly ten fold, the physics placed on nearly everything in that game is amazing! Is Warhead worth playing? I'm keen even if it's just more of the same!
Nathaniel Kelly
>I'm keen even if it's just more of the same! Yeah that's basically exactly what it is
Elijah Bennett
>Is Warhead worth playing? I'm keen even if it's just more of the same! Warhead is a more action oriented than the sandbox-y do-it-entirely-your-own-way Crysis, but really it's pretty much more of the same yeah I would argue that it even surpasses the original at some points, though it shits the bed after the midway point just like every Crytek game ever
Jackson Clark
Maybe it's still the best for environmental graphism but it aged poorly on the facial animation and 3D characters modeling department side.
Nicholas Lopez
Pure graphics without and art direction gets you bland or messy visuals. You can't just throw tesselation and an object, bump map and shader the fuck out of it and call it a day. Someone needs to work out a uniformity to all objects in the game within the constraints of the rendering engine.
Ideally, you have some measure of visual design to massage your technological limitations. Also, a weak game graphically can look pretty, but an ugly game is always ugly no matter the resolution, poly count, and underlying tech.
Easton Howard
Warhead nerfs Koreans but makes aliens fun to fight. It's good.
The only Crytek game that really shits the bed in the middle is Crysis. Warhead quality is pretty consistent, and the last level is the best one.
Carter Long
In a different manner. Crysis does it better but BF is still impressive.
I love retards who think maxing the game out = mods.
Jeremiah Robinson
Good thing I own R5 :^)
Grayson Jackson
And yet a game with Genisis tier graphics will prove to be far more entertaining in the end.
Why do people argue about graphic power again?
Levi White
=Crysis is one of the most fun FPS games.
Tyler Adams
Play the game and enjoy it. How many of you actually played Crysis 1? It was a pretty fun shooter- it doesn't deserve to be remembered only as a tech demo. The first was a superior Far Cry. Gameplay is more important than graphical fidelity, and even disregarding graphics Crysis is solid.
