Indeed.

It's about the drivers really, i hope nVidia are conjuring a kick ass driver release along with Crysis.
 
Just check the spec for this game



Minimum system requirements

from Crytek and EA

OS - Windows XP or Windows Vista
Processor - 2.8 GHz or faster (XP) or 3.2 GHz or faster* (Vista)
Memory - 1.0 GB RAM (XP) or 1.5 GB RAM (Vista)
Video Card -256 MB**
Hard Drive - 12GB
Sound Card - DirectX 9.0c compatible

Recommended System Requirements
OS - Windows XP / Vista
Processor - Intel Core 2 DUO @ 2.2GHz or AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+
Memory - 2.0 GB RAM
GPU - NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS/640 or similar


These are mad spec i think ,the game does really look good.

Can you get this for the x-box 360 or ps3?
 
.... hmm, i dont feel the usual giddyness that i expect when a new big game is coming out...
suppose I wasnt much of a Farcry fan - and seeing how Crysis reminds me of it, i could care less. Dont let me spoil ya though :D

Hurray :D

I hope the SP missions are good :) I've still not even tried the SP demo, but loved the MP!
 
Oh, this is good, this is very good :)

Got it at my local GAME shop for £30.00.

Haven't tried multiplayer yet.

The settings defaulted to 1024 x 768, everything on high and no anti-aliasing on the system listed in my sig.
 
I'm going to post this here as well as Belloni's tweaking thread because you guys need to try this. :)

The below is in XP so Vista maybe slightly different. ;)

My config i am using atm is as follows...

con_restricted=0
r_displayinfo=1

r_VSync=0
d3d9_TripleBuffering=0
r_ssao_quality=1
r_ssao_amount=0.2
r_SSAO_darkening=3.6
r_TerrainAO_FadeDist=1
r_HDRlevel=0.5
r_TexturesStreaming=0
r_sunshafts=1
r_ColorGradingDOF=0
r_ShadowJittering=1
r_ShadowBlur=0
r_GetScreenshot=1
r_GeomInstancing=1
r_UsePOM=1
r_MotionBlur=0

e_hw_occlusion_culling_object=1
e_gsm_lods_num=4
e_shadows_from_terrain_in_all_lods=0
r_UseEdgeAA=2
e_shadows_max_texture_size=512
e_view_dist_ratio=45
e_water_ocean_fft=1
e_particles_lod=0.7
e_vegetation_min_size=1.5
e_view_dist_ratio_vegetation=50

q_ShaderShadow=1
r_EyeAdaptationBase=0.2

That gives me around 30-35 and upto 45 in places. All at 1680x1050

This is what i did.....

1. create a new text file on desktop.
2. copied the above text to the file, and rename the file to system.cfg
3. Start Crysis and set all to high and save settings.
4. go to 'C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis'
5. drag or cut and paste the file above to that location.
6. play the game and admire the graphics!! :D
7. If for some reason you dont like it, then just delete the system.cfg file and all is back to normal. ;)

A full list of the configs and what they do can be found at Tweakguides.

Here are some screen shots.

That seems odd. Have they released the game either bugged or not at it's full potential graphics-wise?

I'm wondering whether they will release a patch addressing this?

I've actually had the game seize on me twice so far, it just locked completely, at the settings shown in above post.

Anybody else playing this not using a GTX? Would be interesting to hear from you.

I am enjoying the game though, I just love the way you can take any route you like to reach a target.

The more I play though the more it seems just like a big old upgraded version of Far Cry. Which is no bad thing at all :)

So far I've just rescued the Hostage in the village and there's some big nasty tanks coming :eek:
 
Floppy, there is a patch coming out in two weeks, that will fix alot of issues apparently.

I'm still trying to flippin' tweak mine to no avail.
 
The config is just to 'fine tune' the graphics, Crytek did this so people could have the freedom of playing with the set up. :)

Flops try the 169.04's, (not the 169.09's ;)) been very good for me and have not read any probs regarding them. :thumb:

I am on the 'end of game boss'!!! :cool:

Man the game is awesome! I loved every minute of it, the jungle missions are my fav so far. The alien ship level looks amazing! ;)

I wanna talk more about it but dont wanna spoil it for ya!! :)
 
OK so I've just completed it.

".....We're going back"

Bring on Crysis 2! ;)
 
Yay! Got my configs to work, my god it looks so much better!

How do i take a screen shot btw? Print screen isn't working.
