    would you say the engine is more optimised or is that just marketing crytek used?

    Some results...

    Crysis Warhead
    1. I add the 4870 profile to the amd.txt file as I saw none (0x1002, 0x9440, 4 // AMD Radeon HD 4870)
    2. I changed the FSAAPrifiles.txt to incorporate ATI's CFAA
    3. Installed Cat 8.9
    4. Start Crysis then go to the options screen and click on the optimize button.

    marketing. it performs virtually the same as crysis for me on equal settings. And no crossfire scaling whatsoever.

    That's what happens when you use a profile based multi-GPU approach like NV and ATI use now. Try 8.9 but don't expect any scaling till 8.10 or an intermediate hotfix.

    sounds like a waste of money like the original crysis, I wonder what the pirated numbers will be on this one compared to the original crysis

    It's worse. I paused the game to go to the bathroom, and when I came back, my PC was at the welcome screen. When I logged in, it had a message saying the system has recovered from a serious error.

    That your system isn't able to draw a hundred trillion shaded texels with 60 Hz is not the fault of the game!
    Maybe because many reviews state that they can run the same settings with somewhat acceptable frame rates (30-45) with a single GTX 260 while I have a significantly larger amount of GPU power?

    Running well for me so far. DX9 Gamer (high) settings with the CVARs tweaked for some of the Enthusiast (very high) features, 1680x1050.

    25-30 FPS and I'm about 2 hours in. Certainly not bad considering my old G80 card still being in use! I would like 60 FPS, but 25-30 has been perfectly playable so far, so I'll take the eye candy.

    The game isn't drastically better optimized than the first IMO, but it is nevertheless noticeable. For $30 I'm satisfied, the multiplayer is said to be good too.

    Crysis 1 is an awesome game. I've been playing it every day with new maps (sp) since it came out. Oh yea PIRATES SUCK !

    Can someone use Fraps or whatever to measure FPS instead of saying 'hey it feels better than Crysis 1' so we can compare?

    No need for Fraps.

    r_displayinfo 1

    Put it in console, gives you FPS and some other information.

    Not a bad price on Newegg's Crysis Warhead special's 9800gt for $109.00.

    NewEgg
    Particle's First Rule of Online Technical Discussion:
    As a thread about any computer related subject has its length approach infinity, the likelihood and inevitability of a poorly constructed AMD vs. Intel fight also exponentially increases.

    Rule 1A:
    Likewise, the frequency of a car pseudoanalogy to explain a technical concept increases with thread length. This will make many people chuckle, as computer people are rarely knowledgeable about vehicular mechanics.

    Rule 2:
    When confronted with a post that is contrary to what a poster likes, believes, or most often wants to be correct, the poster will pick out only minor details that are largely irrelevant in an attempt to shut out the conflicting idea. The core of the post will be left alone since it isn't easy to contradict what the person is actually saying.

    Rule 2A:
    When a poster cannot properly refute a post they do not like (as described above), the poster will most likely invent fictitious counter-points and/or begin to attack the other's credibility in feeble ways that are dramatic but irrelevant. Do not underestimate this tactic, as in the online world this will sway many observers. Do not forget: Correctness is decided only by what is said last, the most loudly, or with greatest repetition.

    Remember: When debating online, everyone else is ALWAYS wrong if they do not agree with you!

    I know, but that's not what I'm saying.

    Compare Crysis vs Crysis Warhead in terms of perfomance and IQ (of course you need the same map/timedemo with both).

    not really, I enjoyed the beginning of it a lot, gfx especially, the part where there's zero gravity was cool, but after that it just got boring, kinda like a movie that you control the movement. The gameplay is too linear, that's why games like WoW are so successful, the user can control the entire game
