Sadly, I think many of the geniuses aldready left after the payment scandal a while back. For example, I randomly saw on twitter, that 2 of the engine devs are now at ID software. Not surprising, seeing how good the new ID tech engine is... There are rumours about a remaster and/or a new Crysis floating around though. And as a huge fan I'm getting my hopes up! Last year in a german interview they said they own the rights to both Ryse and Crysis and are free to do with them whatever they want. Then there was that EA Buisiness shareholder thing, where they said that they have a lot of remasters of old fan favorites coming: www.tweaktown.com/news/68512/crysis-remaster-teased-again-perfect-playstation-5-xbox-scarlett/index.html Crytek themselves teased us 3 times. First with 2 videos, one for their Cryengine 5.6 and another for the company itself, both of which showed us references at the end: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJvXeGp8oMl3rq8 kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJiYgH-dqMt6h80 and lastly the official Crysis website, which ever since April 1st looks like this: www.crysis.com/ Could just be an April fools, but how come it still lokks like this after a week? ;D

The problem is that Crysis left the wrong kind of impression to the most casual gamers. What i mean by that, is that it's remembered for it's graphics and how revolutionary they were for 2007. On the other side, the gameplay prespective of it isn't remembered for that exact reason. The graphics. They overshadowed the actual gameplay and only people like Jarek(people who actually immersed themselves with the game) remember the gameplay aspect of it.

I think a big part of that problem is how few people actually played the game, I have no stats only intuition but I played this through family and the nanosuit/sandbox combo was a bench mark I compared every game after to. However very few of my friends or people in the wider social circle did play it, kinda like demon souls everyone talks about it but it's just a soundbyte they borrowed rather than an actual opinion because they've never been able to form their own opinion. Graphics are easy to interpret from someone else's video or watching over the shoulder, they are immediately striking, but gameplay? You had to climb over a mountain sneak into a camp and decimate the KPA to appreciate that.

I played singleplayer a lot of times and 7 years of multiplayer. Crysis had a great movement on characters and bullet physics too. I think Crysis 1 had best gameplay because a lot of action and choses like in battlefield 3 and later. Big maps with capture mode, thats what needed Crysis 2 and 3. I think Crysis 2 and 3 is not real Crysis. Crysis 1 is another game than 2 and 3. Another enviroment, another movement, another game mods.. That is not Original Crysis... Bow? .. shit. :D Need jungle and islands. Need free gun modify and capture mod with big maps where all can use a lot of vehicles like cars, helicopters, vtols, tanks, etc.. I played Crysis 2 and Crysis 3 but It is just about better graphics, not about real gameplay. Just start servers at Crysis 1 with new patch and do advertisement. No need more, just take money for that step forward. Do not know how I could play 7 years the same game, I think it was great gameplay for me. Thats what Crysis 2 and 3 did not give me. :) If developers start Crysis 1 servers again, I send them money and build a new gaming pc, till this I shit on new cheap gameplay games.

Physics sandbox shooters really were something else. FEAR's slow-mo, Halo's ballistic and explosive physics (with Skulls to modify them!), Far Cry 2's wildfire physics, etc. Your weapons weren't just DPS hoses, they were _physics tools_ that interacted with the environment in rarely-predictable ways, always throwing a new situation at you like improv. Rather than turning shootouts into perfectly-balanced, 'no items, Fox only, Final Destination' competitive grid matches, these mechanics created _absolute emergent chaos._ I used to spend so much time reloading the same quicksave, and seeing how much the mayhem changed when I poked with a sword or grenade or punch, left or right, high or low. I think a lot of modern games feel kinda sterile, because they want to measure pure competitive viability rather than giving you and your friends a sandbox to go, _"Holy shit did you see that?!"_

When you argue that graphics make gameplay better I think you're including graphical power and aesthetics. A strong aesthetic is far more important than graphical power. The Wind Waker is nowhere near the best looking game of its time if you look at the graphics alone, but the art design makes it hold up far better than those other games. If graphical fidelity were the most important thing then Shovel Knight would be considered an ugly game, but its aesthetics are what make that game look great.

Crysis wasn't so much open world as it was open *ended*. Every time I play the game, I discover new outposts, new clusters of enemies, new places with detail or goodies I never would've found before - it's genuinely incredible that for the roughly 6 or so times I played the game to completion, I still find new things about the islands, game mechanics, enemy behaviours and so on. I play on Delta, and the deadly enemy AI combined with the somewhat nerfed suit makes the tactical approach much more worthwhile - but the flow of stringing together suit modes at just the right time, dancing with death against all odds, is a feeling few games captured back then, and few games still capture today. The graphics are still great today, but some things to note about them. Playing the game on anything below High would compromise the visuals so much that you'd go straight back to possibly the graphical quality of FAR CRY 1. It's ridiculous how potato the game looked at the lowest. The levels have tons of detail with tessellation, physical pebbles, grass and assorted vegetation, but even on the ingame Ultra settings, their draw distance is rather low, so you'll need to look into config file commands to increase those. I didn't mind the vehicle sections too much, I actually enjoyed the tank and VTOL stuff, but that's just me. They were functional, and the controls on the VTOL especially were still better than, say, GTA San Andreas. The freeze ray is pretty bullshit, to get out of it you have to frantically mash WASD until you break free. Sometimes you get stunlocked repeatedly by a single ray, but at least I avoided getting shattered instantly. Warhead got on my nerves more often than Crysis 1, through a combination of playing through it only once vs Crysis, thus being unfamiliar with the challenges ahead; the story that left a weird taste in my mouth even if I thought little of it while playing; the downright laughable third person cutscenes, with no real pacing or reason for them; and what felt to me as cheap enemy placement just to get on your nerves. god that FUCKING TRAIN SECTION was the worst part of it, why do I remember it now

Crysis was completely ahead of its time with parallax occlusion, shadows, lighting, physics and textures. Still comparable to console graphics today. Ps4 typical graphics don't look a lot better. And yeah the ai was bad and compared to today, there is low resolution, anti aliasing and anisotropic filtering. Basically just get better filtering and resolution (1080p was max) and it looks pretty much like a modern title.

I have replayed Crysis many times and I still think that that first level is the best first level in any fps game ever made. It's amazing how many ways you can play through it but most people are just "shoot enemy move to objective marker" and they look at the person who recommended them the game like "is that it?" It's crazy how playing the old games now highlights how much we have grown as gamers and how much more we appreciate the medium as a way of expressing ourselves instead of blindly following a skript. If you like Crysis over Crysis Warhead it means you are a more mature gamer.

Crysis could be considered something like a futuristic tactical shooter. On Delta difficulty, good planning was needed before going guns blazing; on top of that, proper use the 4 "separated" nanosuit abilities was also a must. Taking all that into account, it's kind of easy to see why Crysis 2 and 3 felt more consolized or dumbed down.

Fantastic video yet again. A lot of people thought Crysis was just about the graphics. I think the whole "open-world linear" gameplay was what I truly enjoyed about the game. I played this game only a few years ago and I was still very surprised how terribly it ran (my spec was 6700K + 980Ti back then), but also by how cool it let me beat the objectives in a way I wanted in Nano Suit. The game actually became less enjoyable as later stages were linear and the last boss battle was "ugh, I would have quit if it weren't the last level" kind of terrible, but overall I felt that the pretty graphics completely overshadowed its "beat it in your own way" gameplay. I never got around playing the sequels because they became Origin exclusives, but I do wish more FPS shooters incorporated its freedom the earlier levels presented without turning into an empty open-world game.

Crysis is one of the last pc singleplayer fps with modding support. But Crytek opted out of patching it pretty early on while making threadbare excuses why. As a consequence it had never proper 64bit support for example and the physics and ai bugs were never completly patched out. Still what prolonged the life of the game was a very active modding scene that produced many good maps and mods for the singleplayer part of the game. In fact so much so that Crytek themselves effectivly killed the scene with "community management".

The game is a masterpiece and shows what games were really capable of without being held back by consoles. Graphics still hold up to current games incredibly well.

I would really love to see a world where we got more "crysis" games to see where we could be now technologically without constantly being held back by consoles.

Not in this day and age. If a game doesn't look good fuck gameplay because kids don't give a damn. A better way to say it is CoD comes out every year still kids complain 'gameplay not innovative, gunplay is boring'campaign ever since Ghosts has been bare bones . So unfortunately no and it goes for most mordern games graphics come first gameplay second.

I suggest you guys take a look at Crytek's latest engine showcases and notice how much it's implied that a remaster is on the way. I think it's needed to be honest as it's frustrating to see how poorly it runs on much better hardware than what was available in 2007-2008. The game still looks good and indirect lighting (SVOGI) should give it a neat facelift.

Thanks Crysis lol.

Nice video. I also want to add that if you want to speak about PC or console markets, you should take geographical region in consideration as well. From what I heard, consoles used to be (or they may as well be now) more popular in US, however if you take Europe and move East, PC gets more share and fame. I can definitely say that in Russia PC is much more popular platform.

It wasn't just graphics that I loved about this game. It was the way the visuals, physics, and gameplay all created an immersive experience. It did tail off towards the end though. They should definitely remake it and optimize it for multi CPU hardware and add stuff like better bullet physics (bullet drop), and maybe add some extra levels.
