Crysis 3′s Bow Looks Like A Nice Change From The Usual Guns

New to Crysis 3 is the bow, which wasn’t present in the previous two Crysis games. Given that this is Crysis, though, we’re looking a high-tech bow that takes enemies apart in a rather satisfying way when you hit them, especially up close. EA demonstrated the weapon in a new promo video for the game, which you can watch below:

Sweet. I wouldn't mind a more tactical stealthy weapon. It was fun in Far Cry 3.

Gamer19824133d ago

Meh they are trying to take a leaf out of Far crys book. They have ran out of ideas so though hell lets throw in a bow!

torchic4133d ago

how so? we saw this bow from the moment Crysis 3 was leaked. or unless Crytek went into the future and ripped ideas from Far Cry, yeah that's it.

-MD-4133d ago

Far Cry isn't the first game with a bow.

shutUpAndTakeMyMoney4133d ago (Edited 4133d ago )

Meh Farcry 3's entire setting is just taking a leaf out of crytek's farcry 1. They must have run out of ideas?

So farcry 3 invented bows? hmm did turok use a butter knife to hunt?

Seem some people say crytek sucks no matter what.

I personally enjoy the look of the game and also I think being the only game with a nano suit with changeable powers that adds strategy and cause you to think in a shooter with different ways of approaching it is still rare.

Yet since it has a bow some think it's completely generic?

I am pretty sure your 12 and think Cod is the first shooter.

Also I hope this level will be in multiplayer. That high grass!!

DwightOwen4133d ago

Turok could've been something really great with a few more months of polish.

ab5olut10n4133d ago

Will there be any reasoning for why you never had a bow before? Like maybe this is homemade?

cannon88004133d ago

My computer is ready to dominate this game! Can't wait!

AKS4133d ago

Yeah, that's what you think. Your PC is no match for Toad Tech!

cannon88004133d ago

haha I totally forgot about that toad. Now I'm having second thoughts about my pc being able to handle the toad. http://www.enizr.com/media/...

iistuii4133d ago

Hope your right. All that grass swaying with AA turned on, Gulp.

iistuii4133d ago

This game looks awesome. My pc is also ready to max this out.... Hopefully.

I had no idea that Bad Company 2 was still running, and only now that I know, I want to jump on! 😥

SonyStyled130d ago

I was able to find games in the Vietnam dlc on ps3 the last week. There were articles on here about the server closure when it was announced in April

DaReapa131d ago

BF1943 is the only online MP game that I was genuinely interested in. Been playing since launch 14 years ago. Hate that I couldn't put in as much time to play as I'd hoped for during the final week.

Inverno130d ago

I got really into 43 when I bought Bf3, and preferred it. Everything that I disliked or found annoying about Bf3, wasn't an issue in 43. Too bad they never bothered releasing it on PS4 or PC.

1nsomniac130d ago (Edited 130d ago )

Dead Space 2...... I wasn't even aware that had multiplayer. Nevermind that it was apparently one of their best multiplayers!

anast130d ago

Once people stop buying micros, these companies close the doors.

Xenial130d ago

Dead Space 2 multiplayer had been hanging on for years - I'd boot my PS3 up to see some familiar names in lobbies. This will definitely be missed!

Yep. Wait a couple of years and get this level of performance on a RTX 4070 or 4080 at a much lower price.

Killer73nova1278d ago

And wait a couple more years for rtx 5070 or 5080 at a much much lower price

Yung-T1278d ago (Edited 1278d ago )

That headline is a tad misleading.
The rig stated in that YouTube video is extremely high-end (ryzen 3950x oc, 32gb etc) and utilizing special water-cooling solutions, loops with pumps etc.

This rig easily costs 5k+ and a normal pc with a RTX 3090 wouldn't get close to these framerates or sustainable temperatures.

Aggesan1278d ago

Who has a "normal" pc with a RTX 3090?

Yung-T1278d ago (Edited 1278d ago )

There's still a difference between a high-end GPU+CPU and a custom-made water cooling system including a Waterloop&pumps etc though, it allows for much higher performance due to the better temperature management that would fry the GPU&CPU with normal builds.

lonewolf101278d ago

That's why people need to read the articles, most headlines are just to get you to click.

Rainbowcookie1278d ago

You would think yes, but honestly does it happen often 🤣 enough

I_am_Batman1278d ago (Edited 1278d ago )

Most of the threads of the 3950x were barely utilized and none of the games that were tested allocated more than ~12.5GB of system memory. Gaming at 8k is pretty much as GPU bound as you can get so you won't need a water cooled high-end CPU or 32GB of memory.

Psychotica1278d ago (Edited 1278d ago )

How does the cost of the PC make the headline misleading?

Mega powerful video card but the games you can play on that card are all available elsewhere. I want to see compelling pc only goty material titles ASAP

Psychotica1278d ago

And where else can you run them in 8K or even in 4K with the same level of performance?

averagejoe261278d ago

Who cares? Nobody has 8k screens and the majority don't even have 4k screens.

This push for pointless high resolution is ruining progress. Give us better framerates, lighting, physics, etc. Stop wasting power on needles 8k.

lonewolf101278d ago

@averagejoe26

There are people with 8k monitors though.

Bender65021278d ago

And still we can't escape 30fps.

JCOLE131951278d ago

I mean given the fact the games are running at 8K it doesn’t surprise me...

MrDead1278d ago

DLSS 2.0 no doubt has a big part in this too, The Witcher 3, Horizon Zero Dawn and Death Stranding run like a dream on my 3080, 4k ultra set to 60fps no drops or stutters and the system runs very quiet. Playing Borderlands 3 on badass settings, Red Dead or Division 2 on 4k ultra all run great (Red Dead has a few drops below 60fps) but my PC is working a lot harder on games that don't utilise DLSS, my room warms up nicely when playing those games.
