Machinima: "All other things being equal, whenever a game’s early concept art and its eventual, you-are-(playing) their implementation are close to being practically the same thing… well, prospects can genuinely be said to be looking up. Good thing too—since practically everything else about Crysis 3‘s post-alien-invasion apocalypse is looking pretty grim at the outset, at least for us humans. On the plus side of the conflict, we’ve of course got one-man avenging army, Prophet—and brother, the other guys are going to have Losses, that much I can guaran-damn-tee you."
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.
The increased emphasis on stealth and variety sound promising. I'm curious to know just how open or controlled the game world will be. I remember Crytek indicating that it will be less open than 1 but more open than 2. This preview seems to suggest that it's closer to 2, but it's hard to make an accurate assessment of that unless you've played through a substantial portion of the game.
