Crysis: Custom Map Introduces The City Life

GameXtract writes "Crysis, and Warhead is all about an island with jungle terrain, and with the new conflict of aliens we now have ice too. With an engine as sexy as the Cry Engine surely someone can put the system to good use to create a more urban setting. Jlim is the team leader of a custom singleplayer map known as City Assault. The map takes an urban approach with lots of buildings, and city like objects making this map one kickass project. No longer are you strained to trees, bushes, grass, and mountains. It's time to got all out in the streets of a large city. Don't get too excited yet as the map is still in development, but the team leader has revealed some great screenshots.

I need to further mention that nano suites were made for free running. The perfect combo of speed, armor, and jump puts this game in a genre it was never intended for. The second video after the jump shows off the creator of the map taking the nano suite out for some roof jumping. This will convince me to download this custom map once released. Take a look at the screenshots, and free running videos after the jump."

Videos, and screenshots after the jump.

No one cares. The whole can it run Crysis is old, dead and stupid. It's also irrelevant, considering only less than one percent of pc owners, own a high-end PC. Second, I believe Crysis wasn't even optimized properly.

TheColbertinator390d ago

Crysis blew my mind back then and still kinda does.

Let's hope the modders can get the other Crysis games working in VR as they use the same Cryengine.

Bioshock still looks fantastic, one of my all time favorites.

Yui_Suzumiya462d ago

Beyond: Two Souls on PS3 can compete with modern day graphics.

SonyStyled462d ago (Edited 462d ago )

Same as Killzone 2 and 3, uncharted 2 and 3, Infamous 2, Heavy Rain, Resistance 3

jasonismoney462d ago

I wish this was entirely true, but you might want to load up Killzone 2 and Resistance 3 again.

SonyStyled462d ago

@jason I watched some gameplay videos of KZ2 and R3 on my full screen. They are on par or succeed graphically to the first person shooters mentioned in the article that also launched on the seventh generation of consoles. Try the same and see what you think

cthulhucultist461d ago

Killzone 3 was super impressive! I could not believe the graphics back then as I was regularly pausing the game to stand in awe looking at the surroundings! Resistance however did not impress me that much. Heavy rain is also another amazing graphically speaking game. It almost felt next gen

Fist4achin462d ago

I always thought the first 3 Gears of War games looked great and still hold up for today.

SonyStyled462d ago

They did for their day. I recently played gears judgement with on the 360 and the draw distance was so blurry. The characters up close look great though

JEECE462d ago

Far Cry 2 was awesome. In addition to having demonstrably better physics and AI than later games in the series, it had a lot of design decisions that, criticized at the time, have since been praised in games like BOTW and Dark Souls.

iNcRiMiNaTi462d ago

It might not be super amazing by today's standard but I thought Mgs3 looked really good

JEECE462d ago

In terms of art style it still holds up.

Can It Run Crysis? The Only Steam Deck Question That Matters

Digital Foundry: "When Alex Battaglia got his hands on a Steam Deck, this was inevitable, right? So can the Steam Deck really run Crysis? And if so, what type of optimised settings produce the best performance? What's the best balance of features and battery life... and what about 60fps?"
