Crysis 3 beta keys, and new Nvidia drivers

I didn't think the key trick would work, so thanks TC. However, I can't download it. I know you aren't supposed to be able to, so did you guys do anything to get it to start or did it do it on it's own?

And of course, today is the first day in at least a month where I didn't have any homework:P

More screens from the other map..

That's all for tonight.

I can't find the latest drivers anywhere, even under beta drivers.

The latest it shows is 310.90.

The new beta drivers fixed my stuttering issues in BF3. Thank god, I was starting to get really angry as every 310.xx release was garbage for me.lockjaw333

[QUOTE="Elann2008"] Origin is fastest for me. I get about 3-4 mb/s. While with steam, I'll get around 2mb/s. Amazon.com roughly the same as Steam.seanmcloughlin

Highest I have ever hit with steam was 1.0mb/s :(

I hit 11mb/s on steam....at my college D:

[QUOTE="Elann2008"][QUOTE="seanmcloughlin"]

Usually origin is pretty speedy, like much more so than steam most times

Downloading Crysis 3 beta now.=O

GTX 460 1GB of VRAM, Core i7 920 at 3.8GHz

35-40 FPS at 1920x1080 very high settings (AA off)

60-100+ FPS at 1280x720.

But then again it's only multiplayer. I doubt the singleplayer will run half as well judging by the difference in graphics.

[QUOTE="-Unreal-"]

That's MB not mb.

Whatever, we all knew what it meant

Kind of looks like gears of war.

Played the beta for about 30 minutes... Nothing interesting enough to keep me playing any longer.

Performance on my setup:

• i5 2500K 4.4GHz
• 8GB DDR3 1600MHz RAM
• GTX 680 2GB

1920x1080 with SMAA X4

• Game effects: High
• Object: High
• Particles: High
• Post Processing: High
• Shading: High
• Shadows: High
• Water: high
• Antistropic filtering: 16x
• Texture resolution: high
• Motion Blur: None
• Lens flare: Yes

60-70FPS.. Never dips below 30FPS, Very playable.

If I set everything to Very High I get around 40-50FPS and dips lower than 20FPS, playable but not good enough for a FPS game.

If the optimize it more a GTX 680 should be able to max out the game and get 60FPS average.

My system: 680 GTX, i7 3930k @ 4 GHz, 16 GB Ram, latest Nvidia beta drivers.

Tried out the different AA methods and TXAA + SMAA seem to be bugged.

TXAA:

SMAA:

MSAA 8x:

FXAA:

Visually it looks good for sure, but I expected more. Maybe the SP will change that impression... Performance wise very high seems to be intended for the 690 GTX as selecting that + high TXAA or SMAA runs with 30-40 fps on my system. TXAA seems to be bugged and blur the crap out of the whole picture. SMAAx4 is bugged on my system as well, but it looks the best image quality wise. Performance hit using SMAA X4 is pretty big. FXAA isn't very effective in getting rid of jaggies but was the only selectable AA method that worked properly.

After telling everyone else about it my computer messed up and I had to reinstall windows, it's gonna take forever to regain everything I had.

The drivers screwed up your computer that badly?

I was only able to play one match. It's alright. Feels a lot like Crysis 2. It does look a lot better though. And I'm able to max it and my framerate never went below 40.

Something is fishy about these new Nvidia drivers, because they removed them from their website. Hope you get your PC reinstalled fast ^^

Btw. I found a setting now that works pretty well. Everything set to very high + SMAA x 2 gets me about 50-60 fps. It seems that the MSAA is bugged in this game, causing the white lines indoors. TXAA and SMAA high both use additional MSAA

Well for me I just had to go to Origin, and download Crysis MP Open Beta. Maybe it's gone from closed to open recently.

Yes, very high is the highest setting. I play with adaptive Vsync and my 680 is at stock speeds^^ I tweaked the settings a bit since then and got a good mix of very high and high + SMAAx2 and am getting stable 60 fps now.

I just played a couple rounds and this is what I found out. I got an i7 2600k stock with hd6970 and sure it cant max the game, i had to play on lowest settings no AA, until I found out that VSYNC was eating them FPS. I turned that off and then i could play on high., but I dont recall if i had AA off or on FXAA.

I think there's no AMD beta driver realease that i know of so we kinda screwed, and im sorry i didnt have the counter on for fps.

[QUOTE="seanmcloughlin"]vsync should always be off for a competitive mp fps game anyway. Dat input lag is horrible

[QUOTE="Elann2008"][QUOTE="mitu123"] I use triple buffering to solve that and I can play even games like BF3 perfect with it.

[QUOTE="Elann2008"] vsync and triple buffering are the devil in online FPS's. Its very noticeable in BF3.Elann2008
