The Crysis Series Is Not Finished Yet. Interview With Michael Read Producer at Crytek

www.Bone-idle.ie "BI: So is this the end of the Crysis series or just this segment?

MR: No it’s not the end, when we first started out we wanted to make a trilogy so this will be the end of this section. We have the nanosuit and sometimes that is a bigger character than who is in it. Prophet is a really strong character more so than Nomad or Alcatraz so people are going to really enjoy the closing up of this series."

Yes Crytek ... milk that fu*ker /s

decrypt4504d ago

The series was done with WarHead.

Crysis 2 and 3 were designed to attract the Cod crowd lol.

ATi_Elite4504d ago

The Crysis Series was OVER after Crysis Warhead! The second Crysis went to New York I knew the series was headed for SUCKSville!

Crysis = CLASSIC
Crysis Warhead = CLASSIC
Crysis 2 = Meh
Crysis 3 = Meh
Crysis 4 = YAWN (Unless Crytek takes us back to Crysis Island and the wonderful Crysis 1 gameplay)

chukamachine4504d ago

Not sure about classic.

Did not enjoy warhead.

Crysis 1 was decent.

Crysis 2 was ok for a close encounter, but crysis games have no soul.

That is the problem.

Series should be done with 3 and move on to something else.

hennessey864504d ago

I have enjoyed the crysis series so far, yes it's nothing new interms on the FPS but its god at what it does.

Irishguy954504d ago (Edited 4504d ago )

Bah...move onto something else please. 3 Crysis games are enough

NicSage4504d ago

Yeah Crysis sells so well make more!

Wesley854504d ago

Crysis and it's expansion pack Warhead were poorly coded agreed but Crysis 2 and 3? I think they were coded well and optimised rather good too. I think you shouldn't say a whole development house are poor at gaming based on one game release and it's expansion pack.

DF Direct: Crysis 4's uncertain future is a grim portend for the industry

Crysis 4 is "on hold" and Crytek is facing layoffs - so what does that mean for the company that was once Germany's biggest games dev + the industry as a whole?

I really want to see a Crysis 4 with all the ray-tracing & path-tracing effects. It would be a shame if they canceled the project. Maybe they could do a kickstarter?

DF
" Crysis is something of a tentpole game series for us at Digital Foundry, with a reputation for being an early adopter of graphics technologies that would later define entire generations of PC and console video games. That includes the likes of screen-space ambient occlusion, sub-surface scattering and ray-marched volumetric lighting, but you could write volumes about just how ground-breaking that first game was "

isarai119d ago

I really hope they come out and push the industry forward like they used to. I miss old crytek

PrinceOfAnger118d ago

They all look disappointed by this news especially Alex

JEECE117d ago

Pretty sad that the studio that gave us a monumental game like Crysis is now subsisting on microtransactions from a live service PVPVE game.

Crysis 4 put "on hold" as developer Crytek is next studio hit by layoffs

Crysis developer Crytek is the next studio hit by layoffs, as it announces it's set to lose an estimated 15 percent of its 400 employees.

RaidenBlack126d ago

Why'd the day start with such sad gaming news?
Absolutely disheartening.

Jingsing126d ago

Maybe putting The Power Rangers in Hunt Showdown will get you some money back. (sarcasm)

Kassanova07125d ago

I'm always rooting for Crytek.

P_Bomb125d ago

I’m rooting for Crysis. Hope they work it out.

Crytek Wanted Crysis To Be "Future-Proof"

According to Crytek CEO Cervat Yerli, "I want[ed] to make sure Crysis does not age, that [it] is future proofed, meaning that if I played it three years from now, it should look better than today." Yerli and the team designed Crysis' highest graphical settings for the PC hardware of 2010 and beyond.

While Crytek has officially announced Crysis 4 is in development, nothing new has surfaced. For now, gamers' only way to scratch that itch is to play the Crysis Remastered Trilogy available on PC and consoles.

OG 2007 Crysis (not the remastered weirdo), is & will forever be a legend amongst the PC community.

PrinceOfAnger148d ago

This video will always be impressive to me, even for years to come. Some things here are better than games we have today, OG crysis is the best version!

RaidenBlack148d ago

OG Crysis physics, man ... amazing! Thanks for the reminder!

PrinceOfAnger147d ago (Edited 147d ago )

Looks really nice with VR mod too

FinalFantasyFanatic148d ago

I'm still shocked that it looks as good as it does today, puts some modern games to shame.

Profchaos147d ago

I thought the remaster was fine tbh some rough edges at launch but after some patches it's decent

I mean the lighting and physics still hold up extremely well. I still revisit it from time to time.

RedDeadLB148d ago

That CPU performance thing is preventing it.

isarai147d ago

Yeah unfortunately Crystek's decision to bet on the linear progression of clock speed in CPUs was derailed by the unforseen shift towards multicore CPUs. It just wasn't built with that in mind because that wasn't even in the conversation at the moment

DivineHand125147d ago

I remember when I tried to play Crysis with my Intel Pentium Dual core E2200 @2.2GHz , 4GB ram and GeForce 9400gt. I was a kid back then and that was the best I could do. I would get about 15 to 20 fps. When I over clocked the CPU to 2.8GHz I would get about 40fps. The experience wasn't good at all and it was the only PC game I could not run back then unless and put the settings on low. At that point the game went from cutting edge graphics to PS2 graphics. To this day I haven't completed the OG Crysis. I was able to complete Crysis 2 and 3 after building a new PC when I got my first job.

HyperMoused147d ago

Never played it, worth a try you think?

Profchaos147d ago (Edited 147d ago )

Worth a try just because it's the only game that lets you pick up a turtle on the beach and throw it at enemy soldiers that should have been a back of the box feature.

But nah seriously unless you're nostalgic for it I'm not sure if it will hold up
