Crysis remastered is looking good

I do play Crysis on PC time and again with mods.

Well, one mod really: it's the HD vegetation mod which removes the grainy artefacting on vegetation the base game has going on.

But yeah, that's basically all I use, the game still looks pretty good :)

I've added a video showcasing the ray tracing tech on current gen consoles to the OP.

I have to say: seeing current gen consoles (and non RT cards on PC) do raytracing is might impressive and a look into the future.

Pretty much

Crytek with Cryengine still seems to have good engineers and the best renderer out there but their management/product teams sucks and have no vision.

Is EA still publishing Crysis? Publishing the remaster? I would assume so, but the PC version being EGS exclusive, and not even on Origin, makes me wonder. If EA is no longer involved, I'll definitely be buying it as soon as it's on Steam. If EA is still getting the money for it, I'll be getting it earlier, on the high seas.

Crytek is publishing this. With the different versions being made in cooperation with Saber.

EA no longer seems to have anything to do with this remaster.

Most likely it'll hit steam in one year so: Sept 18th 2021

Metro actually never surpassed crysis as graphics king. When crysis released, the highest graphics settings were nerfed because they were not usable for years to come anyway. But you can still increase them through the ini settings to these ultra settings.

and this is not like over the top increasing. I mean it's basically what a lot of remasters, and cross gen/ next gen games do anyway. Well next gen games do a lot more, but that was certainly a part from going to last gen to this gen, it's also the reason why we see so many remasters.

Still, those remasters look last gen either way, but with a lot of stuff in crysis (like trees, foliage, ground textures) that is not the case.

I remember just making some slight changes back in 2013 and my 7950 barely got 30 fps at 1080p, and that card is way faster than the ps4. So at 4k this will still be a very demanding game for todays cards, and that's just the original version.

If cryengine 5 has everything better (not like the previous one where it was more targeted to weaker consoles), then this might actually be a very interesting release.

and that's not even considering ray tracing lol

What is the point?

Graphics.

And consoles finally getting a consoles a version of Crysis that works and runs well.

@R4gn4r0k:

It will never match pc

Stop trying to impress us with gfx

We want new games

We quit making new games.

Now it's all sequels in big franchises and remakes.

Metro 2033 was also held back by the 360. As for Crysis there was no limitations or compromises that had to be made it was built from the ground up for high end PC's.

Maybe , but metro is the kind of game that could be more easily ported to the x360 anyway, it was not an open world game, and it was also not a polygonal fest like crysis was. Metro was specificially demanding because of dx 11, lighting and shadowing, those things could more easily be nerfed for a console release.

and it's not like metro didn't go open world because of the x360, there were plenty of 360 games that went open world, far cry 2 and 3 for instance.

LOL if thats the case Metro 2033 would looks worse.

Its toe to toe with Crysis as best looking game of its time. and INDOOR segments destroy Crysis in every way.

and from a game that doesnot even use 50% of budget Crysis did. was little indie game that is now cult classic.

As for Crysis there was no limitations or compromises that had to be made it was built from the ground up for high end PC's.

Sure theres no limitation but draw distance were awful, the indoor parts were nowhear near as strong as Metro. besides some years later in 2013 Metro last light did surpassed Crysis in every way and then Redux version too.

Metro is more detailed and more atmospheric. if it use even 50% of budget then it would completely own Crysis in every way.

But then again last light actually did surpassed Crysis in every way.

Crysis was only graphics king for 3 years (2007, 8 , 9).

Please find me rain like this in Crysis

heres Crysis rain plus outdated character model.

And it shows. The game still holds up with its unique blend of sandbox levels and linear narrative.

It's one of the last big PC games on such a scale that wasn't built with consoles in mind.

Metro Exodus is Crysis of today on bigger scale. forgotten because not mainstream enough.

lolwut?

Metro 2033 already had a remaster. It's called Metro Redux and it makes the outside parts look a million times better:

Whereas before they looked like dog vomit.

of course it has remastered which looks undoubtly better. what im saying that Exodus is semi open world like Crysis, push graphics to limit, having weapon customization etc.

@ghosts4ever: Yes, I hope that Metro 4 will be like Exodus.

In fact I want to get an RTX card next year and play though Exodus all over again with Ray Tracing enabled.

The second Exodus Expansion: Sam's Story also adds a brand new open world area, have you played it?

will play it soon.

It gives you a new Assault Rifle and M1911 pistol for you to customize and really builds on everything that made Exodus great.

It's fantastic!

lol crysis was never known for characters or weather effects.

It's da foliage , and nature in general. This mod is basically just done through the ini settings, by increasing lighting, shadowing , blur and bloom. Might as well be the same as ultra settings.

Imagine what you can do when you start increasing texture size and actually remastering like they did with metro.

Don't forget to put the video to hd

Im talking about vanilla Crysis which looks drastically worse than Metro 2033.

The blackfire mod is amazing especially when you see it in game also it looks great combined with Rygel's high texture mod.

Exactly people here are comparing remasters with original crysis but crysis has never been remastered and the original engine goes a long way when you start modding.

and the blackfire mod isn't much of a mod to be honest , it's basically just settings in the ini files that could as well have been in the menu's. It's just lighting and shadowing, this is what you get when you start going a bit crazy on the hdr.

It shows how powerfull that engine really is, it's a720 p video tho because the hd 5870 was good, it wasn't good enough to run crysis in 1080p lol.

LOL once again warmblur friend ignore my post and just post "i love this mod".
