This thread is now pretty much redundant --> http://www.mycrysis.com/forums/viewt...p?f=40&t=15962 - read the bottom post.

Huh?
He just denounced the rumor that the patch would be released on the 28th.

"No patch was ever confirmed"

Has also been removed out of the DX11 sections of both the Wikipedia and NVIDIA websites.

Bot reviewers used catalyst 11.4 Early Preview and Cap4, so I don't know what goes wrong in those bench

No theyre not.Theres stock sandy and OC`ed sandy.It would not kill them to do the same for AMD`s top of the line,especially it really needs it ;-).

thoses drivers don't get CFX support for Crysis 2 . untill you use RadeonPro and push AFR compatibility mode ( but who give strange result on HDR flickering )

I think 11.3 get it ( released this last night ), but i don't have C2 for test

The fud article got its info from the same forum post, about the 28th patch rumor. And nvidia removing that info is hardly anything to worry about, there are no dx11 atm, so obviously they cant have that written on their site. Does this mean it will never come? no

I'm not saying it will or will not be released, but taking stuff out of contex wont do any good.

Sorry I couldn't get a video, but here's the damage.

Card was EVGA Classified:

You have any OC/Voltage or was everything stock?

**initialised** · 03-30-2011, 06:49 AM

No overclocking, no overvoltage.

I'm surprised you bought one in the first place. I take it you are in the process of demanding refund/replacement?

Yea ok, makes perfect sense.

Or just paste the Imageshack link. Christ, it's not that difficult a concept.

don't worry about thumbnails!

**~~XRL8~~** · 03-30-2011, 01:34 PM

Have anyone benchmarked after 1.1 patch ? BAT`s ive downloaded from somewhere doesnt work anymore (after the 1.1 upd).
And benchmark.bat didnt work from the start.Or maybe someone knows exact command ? Because in 1.1 console is back.

**crossg** · 03-30-2011, 01:35 PM

This is what I'm getting with my 2600k and Sli'd 580 GTX SC stock speeds. 1920 X1080, Extreme settings, Average is around 120 Fps. If I enable MSAA I get the flickering. If I enable Vsync it runs about 60 fps. Sorry had to shrink the screenies.

I haven't bought NVIDIA since 8800 GTS 512MB. Burning out video cards and tuning up Crysis is all in a days work. Here's my boss' reaction: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFqxn804Vmk

@CrossG: If those are your Tweaker settings then you are running High not Extreme (what you set in game is overridden). My brief testing on GTX590 had it running ~85fps so with your higher clocks I'd expect ~100.

EVGA have done a SLi patch that should fix flickering.

Hey! I had to scroll on my 1280x800 screen!

"high" represents the hightest setting in the advanced options tool. you can choose between low, medium and high. so high is indeed extreme. i have absolutely no idea why the creator of that tool used different profile names than the game.

maybe because he thought having the 3 options as high, amazingly high and incredibly extremely high was an idiotic idea? just a guess

**RaZz!** · 03-30-2011, 02:44 PM

ye, i agree that these profile names are ridiculous, but i'd have kept them - just for consistency. as you can see, it confuses people

**orangekiwii** · 03-30-2011, 03:23 PM

It's too bad the AA in this game is so screwed up. If you enable AA it just blurs everything. You can't force it through drivers and if you use a flag in Nvidia Inspector you get about 0 FPS with a 580. I really hope they fix the AA blurring everything or Nvidia finds a way to allow forcing AA through their drivers as it is noticeably better looking without AA, but the amount of Aliasing is ridiculous

**Hawk-NGO** · 03-30-2011, 04:15 PM

So they plan on bringing DX11 support AFTER we beat the game and be bored with it? STUPID, STUPID, STUPID.

Uh oh.... there is definitely a conspiracy going on here!

It can mean one of two things:

One, Nvidia simply removed the mention of Crysis 2 until Crytek comes up with the corresponding DX11 update to avoid having "false" claims prior to its availability.
Or two, Nvidia knows there will be no update and changed their page accordingly.

Also, thumbnails should be used not only to save bandwidth, but specially to avoid breaking the layout of a site.
