>This game is 17 years old

Crazy

if this was made today it would need a 4090 DLSS performance with frame gen

Tanks?

Why are 35 year old men playing 17 year old games?
It’s a little creepy

Ok, now post unmodded Crysis 1.

>>716022980 (OP)
looks gay

>>716023373
i cant run it LOL thats just a little classic gamer humor for you :o)

Yeah, and we had supersonic airliners half a century ago. What's your point?

more time has passed between the release of crysis and now than hovertank 3d to crysis

>>716022980 (OP)
it shows

I have never once heard anyone say a single word about this game's actual gameplay, just the graphics.

>>716022980 (OP)

ENTER ENTER MISSIOOOOOOOON

>>716022980 (OP)
damn that looks sick

>this cant be replicated ever chuddy you'll need an rtx 5090 plus goytax to run the latest fotm friendslop game

>>716024395
The first half of Crysis is actually kino. It's ar the midpoint and end where the maps become more linear and you get less freedom gameplay wise. The beginning fighting the norks though, pure ludokino

reminder that ultra settings isn't really ultra settings

>>716022980 (OP)
Battlefield 3? Looks pretty good.

>>716022980 (OP)
out of ten!

>>716024395
people always say the nanosuit is a cool concept and the beginning is fun, but i disagree, only arena shooters are good

when's the last time PC had an original high end exclusive

Are pajeets really the reason that games run and look like shit? Where did all the talent go, management?

>>716025502
women then SJWs then browns then pajeets and chinese sweatshops

>>716025454
Nobody knows

>>716025454
baldurs gate? yeah it's on console but it's PC first really

Why does a game from when I was born 2007 look better than games released in 2025?

>>716025574
>original high end

>>716022980 (OP)
Utter shit. One of the most dissapointing downgrades in the history of games. Spam saying it's impressive has downgraded everywhere it was upon.

Worthless piece of shit. Should have been banned for being inspid and insufficient. Bad design. And not even hold sights.

Better looking games are overlooked because cowards spewing this shit are satisfied. Call it their section. Something. It degraded games. I think the degenerates even tried to force 800x600 as a minimum resolution.

At least in a way we got Far Cry 2 out of this cancer. Could have been better too, but was good enough.

looks like shit

>>716024841
BTW this looks even better with the anniversary update Valve released last year because now the lightmaps use bicubic filtering when shaders are set to Very High, so you don't see jaggies on those shadows anymore

>>716022980 (OP)
gaem? looks fun, reminds me of battlefield bad company 2

>>716025698
>reminds me of battlefield bad company 2
gee, i wonder why
retard

>>716022980 (OP)
you sick fuck

>>716027647
look at those GRAPHICS, they look great for 17...

>>716023467
The game mostly consists of open arenas with entrenched enemies that you have to fight or sneak past to get into their base to press a button, where you almost always have the element of surprise. Those open sections are tied together with linear encounters.
Your gimmick is that you have enhanced strength, mobility, armor, and stealth, but you can only pick one at a time. It's actually really fun, very immersive, and well paced.
The game peaked for me when, after you broke into a base and a big plot point happens, you have to break out of the base and sneak past a ton of patrols and checkpoints all looking for you, at dusk and transitioning to night. They really nailed the "you are deep behind enemy lines, but the cavalry is coming" vibe. The cavalry actually arriving is a huge payoff, for me anyway. The last 1/3 or 1/4 of the game basically throws all that out and turns into Halo 2, but it's still cool.
My biggest gripe is the cloak ability. It makes the game too easy. Vehicles were clearly an afterthought and half baked, but also totally optional. You can walk through the whole game if you want (except toward the end). The writing is overall pretty good, the story is pretty generic though.
Worth pirating the original PC version and not the dogshit remaster.

>>716028847
The forced VTOL section is boring with annoying controls but the tank part is fine

>>716022980 (OP)
>17 years old
>no drones in sight that would nuke the shit out of that tank

>>716024395

>>716029058
Agreed, but I wasn't that impressed with the tank section. I usually just saw the tank as a liability to get shot at, and your NPC companions are useless. It's much easier to just get out and fight with the rocket launcher so that's what I did.

>>716024395
It's terrible. It's fun larping as the predator for like 10 minutes. Everyone says the game goes to shit as soon as the aliens show up and they're not exaggerating. It becomes linear garbage with nothing that made the first half interesting.

>>716023203
Well unironically when it came out around this part of the game no CPU could run it at 60 fps, for years after as well

>>716023343
same reason 35 year old men fuck 17 year old... wait...

8800 GTX was a great card and not too expensive too.

>>716022980 (OP)
yeah, it shows

I had noticed.

>>716022980 (OP)
Casual reminder this fucking thing ran on sub-1GB VRAM and a couple gigs of RAM.
Meanwhile you can't even have working mirrors in modern games that are running on 20 times that much memory.

>>716037252
Its bullshit that msaa used to be cheap and now it "magically" is a performance killer

>>716031909
i remember running it comfortably on HD4870 512mb

>>716037731
luv me 30fps

>>716037896
i had lower resolution monitor and dropped some settings, now find me a game now which can run on 512mb vram GPU and show how it looks and runs.

>>716038126
>games run better when set to potato
:O

>>716038208
>native resolution and some settings set to medium to get 60fps
>potato
you are a full blown retard, 35fps in that graph is still more than consolfags get playing modern ue5 slop

>>716037896
Crysis was designed for hypothetical CPU's that never actually got made (endless increases in Ghz instead of multicore)
Hence it is one of the few games that legit just runs like shit.

>>716038421
Yes you already admitted to running low resolution even for the day. 1024x768 was potato for 2008.

>>716023343
I don't know, but you just made me horny.

>>716038620
>1024x768 was potato for 2008
that was a perfectly average resolution at the time though?

>>716023445
It is still so fucking crazy to me how everything has advanced so much since then yet planes were just... the same as today.

>>716038620
there are quite a few resolutions between 1680x1050 and 1024x768 you inbred mongoloid, meanwhile there pixel art indie games require better gpu to run nowadays.

>>716038672
No, 1280x1024 was more common.

>>716038672
If you had a 5 year old LCD maybe

>>716025454
star citizen

>>716038827
He asked for a video game not a virtual ponzi scheme that has no payouts.

>>716025601

>>716023445
innovation has stagnated ever since

>>716022980 (OP)
>games haven't improved in 17 years
Shocker

>>716038923
all videogames have no payouts they're just pixels

>>716039202
>Video games
Which Star Citizen isn't. That's the point. There's no game. PNG's of spaceships is not a game.

>>716031909
When it came out, it was during the earliest stages of applications moving towards multi-threading. Crysis ran like shit at the time because it only used one core. After updates, Crysis could be run fairly well by things that once struggled with it.

>>716038672
Nah. 2008 is quite late for 1024x768, 1280x1024 was the typical resolution of the day, used on a lot of common 5:4 LCD monitors which you could find all over the place before the widescreen transition. If anything I'm pretty sure I remember that around that time there was a lot of buzz and excitement around affordable 1680x1050 16:10 monitors, 1024x768 was definitely in the rearview mirror.

>>716022980 (OP)

>>716029378
i can't belive it's been 12 years and that only 10 years after release did I manage to afford a PC that can run it in 80+FPS on high settings

>higher difficulty changes enemies language
What else game does this?

ignore this thread goyboy
keep buying my """"graphics""" cards, you gonna need them to process all the slop we've been adding

>>716039558
>1680x1050 16:10 monitors
I was the first in my friendgroup to have one of those, and the hardware to back it up.
Loved that thing.

>>716022980 (OP)
never made any sense to put your super suit equipped special forces soldier in a fucking regular ass tank, what a retarded sequence

>>716024395
It's very fun to fuck around in it at first. Throwing Koreans into destructible environments didn't get tiring. The aliens sucked though.

>>716023343

Anime website.

>>716022980 (OP)
And it looks like that as graphics haven't improved in 17 years.

>>716022980 (OP)
Why did we need graphics better than this again?

>>716042919
Non meme answer, but the gist of IT is that 2 years later, Cod:MW2 happened, achieved record sales for Its time, suits took notice that videogames can make money, especially movie-like video games.
And movie-games ride on visuals. Which is what suits believe to this day. Which is why the studios put graphics at the forefront. Because that's what shareholders like and can "theoretically" woo the average consumer

>>716043343
but MW2 did not look better than Crysis

>>716043964
No, but It kickstarted the idea that games have to LOOK first and play second

>>716043964
MW2 was already in development

>>716042919
so part manufacturers can get paid

>>716025454
Star Citizen counts as the technology game currently, also happens to be running on some modified cryengine. How people feel about the state of said game is a different matter and there's reason to doubt it may not reach it's goals for what the game is supposedly going to be.

>>716025454
A new Zachtronics game literally just came out a couple days ago.

>>716041417
Vehicle sections were considered a good way to change up the gameplay, you don't even need to use the tank however, you can just go solo with the suit and scavenge anti-tank weaponry by killing Korean mooks stationed around

>>716039324
It is a videogame, even if it plays like shit. It's playable right now.

>>716023343
lol

Is GUP worth emulating?
