Wow I really dislike this game/demo. Always less than 25FPS on all HIGH with Post-processing set to low. Doesn't even seem to use more than one core? Running my sig with Vista 32bit ult.

I took some pictures running DX9 and DX10 to compare... not huge differences, but they are noticeable.

Just downloaded and started playing and the game looks incredible :shocked:
I am running at 1920x1200, with all settings at "High" except objects quality which is set to "Very High", but no AA at all.
I am using 32-bit Vista and the rig components in my sig.
With these settings I am only getting 21-26 FPS as measured by fraps in the jungle. You can see that I have top end gear in my computer too.
If I put the settings any higher the game becomes unplayable!!
no wonder its pc only! i wanna try it just to see how low i need to set the settings
Game effects quality, Post processing quality, and Water quality have very little influence on the performance.(on my second rig i have a 7600gs and i see no difference in FPS when i set these to low or high). i found that Object quality has a huge influence on the performance.
I got physics quality on high on this rig (7600gs, E6300, 2gb) and texture quality too.
It's only running 800×600 tho :rofl: but still, it looks very good.
I didn't expect it to run any better on a 7600gs.
I think it's strange that the high end cards don't perform that much better than most mid-range cards.. i mean, i haven't run this on my 7900gt yet, but the beta ran pretty well on it with most settings maxed out @ 1280×1024. (avg about 25fps i'd say, i haven't seen a 8800gtsdoing MUCH better than this)
Agreed. I am a bit dissapointed that with an 8800 Ultra and Core2Quad @ 3.66 I am not getting better performance.Quote:

When I set objects quality down to just "high" I get like +5-6 to all of the framerates listed above.
Turning AA on seems to kill already low framerates...
And if anyone with an 'ultra high-end' (SLI 8800GTX/Ultra, Quad Core etc) rig feels up to the task, could you set the settings to minimum (800x600, low, DX9 etc) and report back with framerates and any interesting information
Cheers.
What about this.......maybe CRYSIS when on max details is too much for any single card setup?
I run CRYSIS at 1600x1200 with mostly medium-high settings and see no lower than 25-26fps....climbing to almost 70fps in some areas.
I have a 6000+ at 3500mhz and a single 8800GTS with 2GB DDR2-1000mhz.
I like heavy games since they encourage me to upgrade my pc, I don't want 130-246fps in CRYSIS like you get with BF2/SF/FEAR maxed.
Anyone tested the game with an 8600? :D
No but my a buddy of mine has an 8500GT 256MB DDR2 and he plays fine at 1024x768 with all settings at low. Ingame he see's between 25-40fps with no AA.Quote:

merci bootup
I guess I won't be able to play this one at 1280x1024 with medium settings. :(Quote:

what do very high settings do ?
is that for sli/cross ?
i hate how even on medium settings i dont get good FPS
cant get crossfire to work on 2900's
Just replayed the demo and had a lil fun with the cloaking.
Walking up while cloaked to a 2 man patrol. i grabbed one of them and threw him at the other both dead :).
then did the same to another 2 man patrol and grabbed the first and the second started shooting and he made a headshot on the guy i grabbed.
Stil am dissapointed by the physix.
Throwing a small wooden box at a hut and then the hut exploding is a bit much.
On a positive side you do save alot of handgrenades that way.
Apparently the demo is single threaded, or at least that's what I'm hearing. That'd explain a lot.
To maintain a playable framerate (over 30) I have to run Medium settings @ my native res of 1900x1200.
C2D E6850 @ 3.6 / 2GB DDR2 @ 1000 5-5-5-15 / 8800GTS 640
It's a slideshow on high. Looks like we'll need next year's hardware for this one.
that could explain tons! like the reason that the high end card guys are getting crappy FPS. being a cpu bottle neck not a GPU one. i have a G15 so i will report back once the demo is done downloading on how much of my second core it uses.Quote:

I'm running Vista Ultimate 32-bit and with a 7900GT, 3GHz X2, and ~3GB RAM I get 50-80FPS with everything on low and 1152x864 res. I think it still looks pretty good.
What's frustrating to me is that it takes a lot of shots to down the enemies, and when you shoot them it doesn't seem to affect them and they still shoot really accurately. Also, when in armor mode it only takes like 3 shots then it's gone so I usually just leave strength mode on since it eliminates recoil for your gun. The AI is good with lots of flanking and coordinated attacks.
Gure3D has a fast and easy download.
Additional Comments: This thing takes forever to install!!!!
At what reso?? I have a GTX, but I found that running everything medium, no AA @ 1680x1050 Im getting 30-60fps but mainly around 40-50 which Im pretty happy with. I def. wasnt expecting this game to run maxed out at high res with high levels of AA\AF with current hardware no matter how optimized people said it was.Quote:
