Sandbox?Really?Invisible Walls Everywhere!

User Rating: 3 | Crysis 3 PC

GRAPHICS: Huge disappointment to the PC gamer. Why? Because of the lack of stability in FPS. On the 'high' preset, in standard environments, I would be getting FPS of 50-60, but then, look into the distance or through a window and BOOM. FPS drops 75%. This was awful. I've never encountered such irritating instability in FPS. And it's not because of superior graphics, it's because of poor optimization from the developers, and maybe intentionally to enforce their 'Can it Play?' gimmick. At the end of it all, in order to keep my sanity while playing I had to do a massive tweak of the settings, where putting a couple advanced settings on low seemed to help a lot.

Here's a tip for the first part with the rain: Turn water to low, because all that cruddy-looking rain is burning your FPS.

Here's the other thing about the graphics, nothing ground-breaking, nothing new, and not much of a step up from Crysis 2, which was a very stable game comparatively. The graphics are not the best I've seen, and objects seem jagged despite high settings and high Anti-Aliasing.

GAME IMPROVEMENT? To call this Crysis 2.5 would be an overstatement. There is very little innovation and improvement from the gameplay mechanisms of Crysis 2.

THE BOW: You obtain the bow weapon in the first 10 minutes of the game. For the remainder of the game, you feel inclined to remain cloaked, use the bow for insta-kills, and then pick up your arrows after. Infinite ammo unbalanced weapon that breaks the game.

THE STORY: Feels forced, unrealistic. Dialogue doesn't feel human. It feels like watching a bad movie.


Invisible Walls Everywhere!! NO FREEDOM AT ALL!!!!

FAR CRY IS 1000000000 TIMES BETTER THAN THIS CRAP!

GIVE ME BACK MY MONEY!
