Crysis 2

[JojoTheDragon]

Its MP.

Try out a MP game once and i'm sure you will have a different verdict.

 

[vamsi_krishna]

You of all people all ready have.

nah.. bro. It has glitches, bugs and is highly unpolished. I grabbed it just to see how it looks.

 

[Piyush]

is nanosuit any different than than its predecessor?
i mean in features not as graphical entity

 

[asingh]

^^
It is slightly different. Power and speed are combined, I guess.

 

[vamsi_krishna]

yeah. And we can upgrade nano suit now for crazy new abilities. A sleek menu shows up if we hit Select button. IIRC, There are nearly 20 abilities to unlock.

 

[Piyush]

Oh man oh man.....!!!!
this is gonna be epic

PC demo on March 1
Crysis 2 PC demo coming March 1 | Crytek

Goddamm! March 1st is a holy day for me. Crysis 2 demo and BF3 news blowout! Hell! I'm fill'd with excitement.

And for all, Crysis 2 PC's MP is 8v8! Not them console beaches having 4 people less.

@vickybat: We never know what FB2.0 holds but one thing's for sure, it'll have life-like destruction ever in a game. BC2 had great destruction, here's hoping BF3 will have even-awesome destruction (it'll have). And.... errr...... yeah, I'm not comparing Crysis 2's MP with BF3's, I'm just saying FB2.0 is an overall bettah engine.

 

[vickybat]

^^ Imo cryengine 3 will be better overall. As far as damage is concerned, nothing beats cryengine3 and everything is dynamic. It even has an in house physics engine and its much better than previous crysis.

So i stand with cryengine 3 as the superior game engine. Lets wait to see the verdict when both games come out.

 

[cyborg47]

Interms of destructibility, frostBite 2.0 FTW! (im a crysis fanboy btw)
but both of 'em are must buy for me

Seriously? Multicore support, Deferred Lightning, Soft shadows, Natural lightning, SSAO, HDR, Motion blur, depth in field, Dynamic Path finding, Integrated Physics engine, Destructible environment, High speed texture rendering, Environment Sounds...

most of the features, tools in that list are there in every video game engine.. next time.. mention AA support, MSAA support, Foliage support, Ambient Occlusion support, etc... jesus.

 

[skeletor]

We need real-time simulation of Brownian movements in games too!

Are you sure the previous Crysis used Havok. Doubt that..?b Always thought their physics system was designed from the ground up and more fitted to CryEngine, and not as generic as Havok.

well, the list did mention 'realtime global illumination', which saves a hell lot of time for the developers, and not many game engines do that...

That's correct. Both, Crysis and Crysis: Warhead used Crytek's own physics integrated in the CryEngine.

 

[axes2t2]

Saw the story trailer.....just WOW

 

[NVIDIAGeek]

And... err... oh, FB1.5 has the best animations, you'll know this if you've played the BC2's MP part (ask Jojo). And FB2.0 is using ANT tech. or somethin' which provide awesome animations. Hell, I'm a Crysis fanboi like nobody but FB2.0 seems to be a wee bit better than CE3. CE3 doesn't haz full real-time destruction (though it has minor destruction which I saw in the leak'd gameplay). After playin' BC2, I can't stand launchin' a rocket and the wall not breakin', I can't imagine how ossum BF3's destruction will be. Oh yeah, JETS!!

EDIT: Just watched the story trailer, and my Gggod! CRYSIS FOREVER!

Yes, you are right buddy. Cryengine 2 did not use havok and had its own physics engine. Thanks for correcting. Post edited.

Crysis 2 takes multicore support to a whole new level. Way more optised than any other previous titles for multi cores.

I have played batlefield BC2 and i am well aware of frostbite engine. Even tried medal of honour multiplayer which has FB 1.5 i guess. Haven't tried vietnam yet.

And i can gurantee that FB 2.0 cannot match realtime damage of cryengine 3. I have seen the FB2.0 demo and although its very good, cannot match cryengine 3.

Have you tried the original crysis? Try shooting the trees and see what happens. Have you tried the same in battlefield bc2? What happened there?

Thats the difference.
