When you guys hear the word ”Crytek” you could easily remember Crysis series one of the best game series in sci-fi genre and in terms or graphics too. Now Crytek after sci-fi and future technology is after the old era where you will be using the swords and face your enemy like the true sons of Rome and yeah not to forget Ryse: Sons of Rome is also great in graphics like Crysis too. When Crytek showed us Far cry and Crysis long ago, we are so impressed, but now Crytek is saying it is not easy to impress the player with graphics as it is used to be.
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?

" 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 "
I really hope they come out and push the industry forward like they used to. I miss old crytek
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 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.
Maybe putting The Power Rangers in Hunt Showdown will get you some money back. (sarcasm)
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.
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!

I'm still shocked that it looks as good as it does today, puts some modern games to shame.
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.
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
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.
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
The law of diminishing returns strikes again.
Doesnt help when there sucking of microsoft dont they realise that multiplatform is the way to go
order1886 already smokes ryse graphically anyways, uc4 will blow it out of the water because it will not only have better graphics and such but a better gameplay and story campaign
Has anyone told Crytek that you don't play graphics? No? Well, guess they'll keep splurging money over boring pieces of eye-candy then.
