Its a bs reason. And it gets old because PC game makers lately have been getting lazy and rushing games out with promises of patching the problems.
Every play GoW on pc? BF2? Or Rune SP? I can go on and on with games that were or still are buggy as hell since release.
All crytek is doing is pushing another game out the door without fixing current problems hoping that it will completely overshadow the previous one. Its kinda sad, I was starting to enjoy my tech demo and now they do this

how about more patch for crysis? maps etc...EA is a joke

Bloody YES.
Finally PC is fighting back ?
I used to be a schizophrenic; but we're okay now.
TBH there really isn't much to spoil...
- i7 920 D0 // eVGA X58 SLI // 12GB G.Skill Ripjaws // HD6950 (6970 BIOS)
- Apogee XT // MCP655 // Thermochill PA120.3 // CM HAF 932
- OCZ Vertex 3 MI edition // ASUS Xonar DX // Corsair TX850
- HTC Incredible - Uber Kingdom Revolution ROM
well a console could sure as hell not play it in its full glory
ps: i have to say, CoD4 was dissapointing in terms of implementation. the game ran better because of its lackluster engine. it was all a light show without any real physics.
crysis does indeed require some optimizing/bug fixing, but to call that engine garbage is.. garbage
PC GAMING WAS NEVER DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!! to come back!

there yo go bringing intel into a amd thread again lol, if that was someone droping a dig at amd you would be crying like a girl.
So what ever happened with Crytek not making anymore PC exclusives? I know they can't port Crysis/Warhead to the Consoles (In their current condition anyways), so did they just change their minds or what? Any news on this I may have missed out on? Either way, I'm glad we didn't lose them. Farcry and Crysis have been my favorite games for the PC in the past years. In my opinion they surpassed (specially Farcry at the time) even valves offerings.

no need for that language. crysis is multi-threaded..
I believe he was being sarcastic. Ironic, if you will. Since Nehalem's main selling point is "octocore" on a single CPU but games probably won't take advantage of more than two cores for the time being, Nehalem will have to depend on its single-threaded performance to make it worth it to gamers. 4 cores + HT at a slower speed that won't be utilized, or an E8400 at an easy 3.8GHz on air? I'd be willing to bet we'll be seeing "Nehalem 2.66GHz or E8400?? HALP PL0X!!!!" threads for some time after Nehalems coming-out party.

A few people on XS simply don't get it that insults and ad hominem never helps your argument. It actually hinders your ability to make your point clear.
Personally, I take pride in my opinions and observations and would prefer to avoid nullifying my posts with petty insults.
*On topic posting ahoy!*
I personally enjoyed Crysis a good deal, even though I couldn't run it 'maxed' out. I ran it on high at 1680/1050 in DX9 and found that it looked great and ran smooth enough to not hinder gameplay.
Not the best game, certainly no Half-Life or System Shock 2. However, I did find it to be a thoroughly fun experience with lots of eye candy included.
I think a lot of the Crysis hate simply stems from the fact that a lot of hardware enthusiasts (AKA us ) were disappointed that even with pimped out SLI rigs they couldn't 'max' it smoothly.
Erm, NO. You're dead wrong. If the game is not multithreaded the maximum utilization you'll EVER see with a quad is 25% (asuming 0 background utilization).
The game IS multithreaded, but maybe:
1. It's a bad implementation.
2. The game doesn't need any more CPU. And at the resolutions we play here at XS the game is 100% GPU limited, so are you expecting a fully loaded quad?
And watch out that language, specially if you're wrong.

Friends shouldn't let friends use Windows 7 until Microsoft fixes Windows Explorer (link)
I am soooo tired of people complaining about the performance of Crysis!
It is simply estonishing that so many people are too stupid to realize that there is zero reason to complain if you can't run highest settings, because playable settings still result into better graphics than literally every other game!
