"Crysis Remastered in this scene looks a bit cartoonish, to be honest." so true ... never seen a remaster worst than original

This is a mixed bag, however, most of the changes are actually positive, it's just the negative changes really stand out.

Negatives:

It looks drastically oversaturated in comparison to the original. It lost the subdued look and gone full Far Cry.
There's way less foliage on the beach scene
The colors are more accurate, but somehow look as they said cartoony (could be time of day)

Positives:

There's more detail in models (sharper)
There more foliage in the 3rd scene
Drastically better shadows
Better Antialisiaing
Again even though it looks cartoony at time, the color are more accurate for an island

We still need to see particle effects, more character models, physics improvements, and performance to know the full story.

LordoftheCritics1763d ago

The remaster lost the tone of the original. Tone is critical.

Vegamyster1763d ago

I don't see more foliage in any of these scenes, especially the first one which has less than half the amount of trees. That said these might be base console screenshots with the PC and upgraded consoles looking better, hopefully that's the case.

bouzebbal1763d ago

to answer your last sentence with particle effects, physics improvements and performance, this is a remaster not a remake so forget about that..
i have no idea they chose to remaster this..

Obelisk921762d ago

This remaster looks really, really bad but I think those pictures are not a fair comparison.

The remaster screenshot look like they are rendered at a way lower resolution. Everything in the original looks sharper and more detailed.
Also the textures. How the hell are they going to make them worse? It looks like the game settings were not the same at all.

I hope to be right, but even if I am, it's very hard to justify a day one buy...

Yeah when your remaster, needs a remaster I think your done, this is trash... do do on a stick...

-Forget Remaster go Remake the game from the ground up, this just looks bad, mafia 3 has better graphics then this thing, maybe you can ask to use their engine.. LoL This is suppose to be Crysis for crying out loud... PC modders made the game look better then this...

Crytek you can't be serious...

masterfox1763d ago (Edited 1763d ago )

Man I thought Crytek would it put some love into this one cause of the game classic/legend status, this just looks like a mere cash grab now.

Minute Man 7211763d ago

Man I thought "EA" would it put some love into this one cause of the game classic/legend status, this just looks like a mere cash grab now.

Fixed it for you

fixed it for both of you 😊 (sorry)

WeedyOne1763d ago

I knew it would not be better. All the crisis games after the 1st one were huge downgrades in almost every way except they had slightly better character models. In the sequels super speed was way slower, they had much worse ai, more linear maps, and crappier physics in large part due to the fact they were made for consoles whereas the original was made for high end pc's and it shows.

lelo2play1763d ago (Edited 1763d ago )

WOW! A remaster that looks much worse then the original. This must be a first.

Poor Crytek! They had the potential to be one of the best developers out there... but all went down the drain.

tontontam01763d ago (Edited 1763d ago )

Why the hell am I seeing downvotes, console fanboys really are patethic, I am 100% sure that every pc gamer who have played this game will agree with you.

Sophisticated_Chap1763d ago

Based on this, I would rather play the original PC version again.

FanboySpotter1763d ago

It finally has some color the original looks dead color-wise. Plants and lighting look better on remaster too.. definitely gonna try it. Some people need to take their nostalgic goggles off for a sec

Can you run Crysis in VR? Crysis VR Mod Available for Download

Playing it right now looks amazing! :D
so much fun, i hope they make a vr mod for crysis 2 / 3 too!

DivineHand12593d ago

This is amazing. This is the direction VR should go in to boost adoption. Since I have beaten every Crysis except 1, this is now a good excuse to correct that problem.

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.

PrinceOfAnger98d 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!

https://youtu.be/SVg63_aNr-...

RaidenBlack98d ago

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

PrinceOfAnger97d ago (Edited 97d ago )

Looks really nice with VR mod too

FinalFantasyFanatic97d ago

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

Profchaos96d ago

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

isarai98d ago

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

RedDeadLB97d ago

That CPU performance thing is preventing it.

isarai96d 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

DivineHand12597d 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.

HyperMoused97d ago

Never played it, worth a try you think?

Profchaos96d ago (Edited 96d 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

Crytek went so overboard on the Crysis tech and sent devs to photograph leaves in Haiti

"The shader work that came out of this was mind-blowing at times."

RaidenBlack110d ago

Amazing, often misunderstood
The dumb AI was deliberate, so that the players can explore and experiment with the world and all the features.

vTuro24109d ago

It really is. Most people only remember it for its graphics but the gameplay was equally amazing.

RaidenBlack110d ago

Hope they try to pour nearly same amount of dedication to the new Crysis 4

DefenderOfDoom2110d ago

Well worth the extra work ! I enjoyed all 3 Crisis games and would also love a new one .

JunonZanon110d ago (Edited 110d ago )

Still wish game development was overall this passionate and minutious about their projects. Obviously, there are still some great studios as exceptions.

LikAChicken109d ago

I’ll never forget Far Cry 2 and the amount of details they packed in.

Yea there were some issues with the gameplay loop and the sickness aspect but you could tell they really tried to nail details.

DivineHand125109d ago

I haven't beaten the first Crysis but I did play Crysis 2 and Crysis 3. I know some PC players were annoyed by the last 2 games being developed with consoles in mind but I believe it was an improvement. I had a great time with Crysis 3 to the point where I believe it was too short.
