Hi-res Crysis DirectX 10 screenshots


Recommended Posts

I take it someone never played Far Cry. To say it was all graphics is silly if you ask me, but to each his own... I have no reason to see Crysis as anything different.

Because it was. It had crappy AI imo and a terrible and almost non existent storyline. Crytek even admitted as such and claim Crysis will be different.

Well the story sucked but the AI wasnt too bad really, especially since it was probably the first FPS to really tackle these sort of environments.

I guess I just found it to be extremly fun which in the end is what matters. Hopefully they work on the play balamncing too, those monsters were incredibly tough to take down and in packs your only option was to retreat while shooting more often than not. That level where you lost all your guns and went down the waterfall was absolutly crazy, took me so long to get past the first half of the map.

AFAIK, the reference rasterizer would not be able to run DX10 in realtime. These screenshots came from a realtime gameplay video. I also don't see any DX10 effects in these shots, if you do, can you point them out?

Crytek has said that minimum specs will be DX9 and shader model 2.0 and shader model 3.0 being mid-range. That means NV 6x and 7x series cards will be able to run it.

ummw ell tell crytek you see no DX10 effects at all . i bet they would really laugh at ya cause the whole point of crysis and the videos and the screenshots is showinf off what Directx 10 can do . volomic clouds / motion blur / and many otehr effects are Directx 10 based effects so Say agian ya dont see any directx 10 effects.

those are definitely off da chain! I wish i had something good to play games with but i hardly play games on the PC anymore... not since UT2004 came out.. lol... I just work on the PC and game on the xbox.

HDR and antialias cannot run side by side...those calculations are run at the some point in the render pipe and so cannot run at the same time...

I'm sure it would be implementation dependant. Source engine supports anti aliasing and HDR. I thought the real issue with both at once was the overhead involved since both HDR and AntiAliasing are pretty intensive.

Everything you see in that video can be done with DX9, DX10 isn't completed yet nor is there any hardware in working order for it outside of ATI's and Nvidia's labs.

perhaps you should check the video then. The effects look great in motion, especially the tree leaves moving.

Edit: I hope this is the right video. http://www.fileplanet.com/161952/160000/fi...%5BQuicktime%5D Theres a shaky cam one and a HD direct feed one. I appologise if this is the shaky cam version as it wont look so nice.

thanks, I lost the link and was trying to find it to post above. It is amazing and definetly a step above HL2. Hell, Hl2 wasnt remarkably superior to Farcry 1 which had the upper hand in several areas. No games matched HL2 yet IMHO in regards to facial animations but.

Why exactly are you all arguing over this being in dx9, you realise of course that pretty much everything dx10 can do can be done in dx9 its all about speed.

alot of dx9 stuff was possible in dx8.

Its all a matter of it being able to run speedily though.

That's actually pretty disappointing. HL2 looked better than that.

Considering DX10 is not even out and HL? was being made for a few years on DX 9 that had been out for years as well clearly shows your understanding of the situation. These are what you can call, "preview" shots of something in development that won't even be done for another 7 months, and that's pushing it.

If there was just a game with that first picture, sneaking round a jungle that dense and cool looking i could play it forever.

Farcry...those pics dont show off anything that wonderful....

:whistle:

downloading video...get back to you on if I think graphics are severly better...not that my opinion matters to yall lol.

    • I have a older F4-210 NAS, it is pretty basic, the CPU is not the fastest by a long way and only 1GB of ram, but it works fine. I don't understand the need for A.I in a NAS. It seems like A.i is being shoved into everything, if we like it or not. i will stick to my old Terramsater NAS, thankfully the OS is not being updated. Also, got myself a small NAs built using a Raspberry Pi 5. iy usesd less energy, so stays on all the time. As for the unit above, if it is as reliable as my old Terramaster Nas, then it will be a good unit.
    • Gemini in Google Sheets can now help you debug and fix formula errors by David Uzondu Google has started rolling out an update to Gemini in Google Sheets that allows the AI to diagnose and fix formula errors in one click, as long as your Workspace admin has Gemini for Workspace in Sheets turned on. According to Google, the new feature can handle pretty much everything from basic arithmetic to very complex calculations. This ability to debug formula errors comes about two years after Google introduced basic formula generation with Gemini in Sheets. To create a formula with Gemini in Sheets, you open a spreadsheet on your computer and click Ask Gemini in the top right corner. You can also enter an equals sign in any cell and use a shortcut like Ctrl + Alt + G on Windows and Chrome OS, or Command + Ctrl + G on macOS. Once you open the side panel, you write a natural language prompt using your sheet references. For example, you can ask Gemini to divide goals by games, or to find cell C1 in range D:G. If for some reason, the formula Gemini generated doesn't work, or maybe you wrote the formula yourself, you can troubleshoot the issue directly inside the grid. When a cell shows an error message, you hover over it and click "Fix". This action opens the side panel where Gemini analyzes the data structure and automatically applies the fixes when they are ready. You can cancel the process at any time by clicking stop in the side panel. Image via Google Google has been pushing its Gemini integration in Google Sheets for a while now, steadily moving AI features from side panels directly into user spreadsheets. Last year, the Mountain View giant shipped an =AI() Function in Sheets that allowed users to run translation and text generation directly inside cells instead of using the side panel interface. Earlier this year, the company announced that Gemini in Sheets had reached near-human expert performance, achieving a 70.48% success rate on the SpreadsheetBench dataset.
    • I get what you are saying, If i go onto the Instagram site, it says log in with Facebook, but they are not allowed to link my account with Instagram until I do that. Maybe in the U.S, they can link them, but Privacy is not a thing in the U.S. the way things are going,l won;t be any better in the U.K.

    • Exactly, this is just the beginning. I hope that by that time, our inept politicians devise something like a Universal Basic Income, because unemployment and poverty rates will skyrocket otherwise. And believe me, robots that perform physical work aren't a matter of IF, but WHEN. No career is truly safe from AI/robots, it's just a matter of time.
