Instant Mix of Hostile Gamer ponders whether or not Crysis 3 should be released as earlier as is being planned.
Battlefield Bad Company 2, Dead Space 2, Crysis 3, and a handful other EA games have finally had their online services shut down.
I had no idea that Bad Company 2 was still running, and only now that I know, I want to jump on! 😥
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.
Dead Space 2...... I wasn't even aware that had multiplayer. Nevermind that it was apparently one of their best multiplayers!
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!
Electronic Arts has released a new update for the PC version of Crysis 3 that removes its SecuROM protection system.
Bang4BuckPC Gamer tested Crysis 3, The Witcher 3, Horizon Zero Dawn and Final Fantasy XV, with all of them running with 30fps in 8K.
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.
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
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.
Crysis 2 was too soon but id rather them press on with an upgrade rather than leave me with crysis 2 as the most recent memory. I wouldn't have minded a big gap with crysis because mods and spec requirements made the game age very well. Crysis 2 however was corked - time for the waiter to bring a new bottle.
hell naw I need more.loved every min and I need some more 3d
I like it cause you can play stealth or guns blazing.
I'm looking forward to seeing what Crytek can do next gen but I'm glad they're releasing Crysis 3 this gen. That way they can take their time getting to grips with next gen hardware so that the inevitable Crysis 4 will be a big jump for the series.
Looking forward to more freedom this time around though, my main gripe with Crysis 2 was the relatively poor AI and smaller locations, compared to Crysis 1 at least.
Probably wouldn't be coming out as soon as it is, but since new hardware is coming, these developers need to get their games out before the new hardware hype pushes current gen games under the rug.
not to soon, to predictable... thats our generation... selling the names and not the games... just like movies, cars, and so on... sad, because no1 has any bright ideas.
