This download link from EA has been posted on many forum and a few have said it is the real demo:

http://na.llnet.cdn.ea.com/u/demos/Crysis_SP_Demo.exe

I'm still downloading myself so I can't confirm but if anybody wants to try thats the link ^

(edit) The demo is confirmed working :)

I take it they fixed the 64 bit issue?

I hope they did, that'd suck if you guys ran into that problem after scrambling to the corner store for beer and chips while it d/led :/


You know, if I download this, I've got two problems.

1. I'm breaking my own rule, and Solaris should slap me for mouthing off to him (in a concerned way of course)
2. I cannot reboot to up my chip to 3.8. Lord of the rings online just got DX10 and softshadows and my God they brought my GTX to it's knees.


Are we planning on making a list of what features, whether visual or not, are not in the demo, say like with the texture issue on rocks?

The demo is okay. Yeah flame me for not being a Crysis fanboy.
I loved it in the first place, but the demo doesn't live up to its hype. Don't get my wrong, it doesn't suck a**, but I like COD 4 a lot more - saying this as a guy who didn't like COD 1-3.

Sometimes I think 3/4 of my magazine is filled with blank bullets, the enemies are made of steel or the Forces dropped training at the shooting range for their super-soldiers due to money shortage... I don't know, but the weapons feel like a clown on crack is handling them...
The AI is... decent. Sometimes they are acting like soldiers, but most of the time you shoot at them, they look around wondering who might be shooting at them instead of finding some goddamn cover. Finding out what is shooting at you is second priority! But I guess they know about the clown and the crack, tho... it's comprehensible...

"Tactics" mostly contain "Crash car/truck/hummer/boat into *insert enemy packed zone here* and kill everyone around - mix it up with some funny object-to-the-face kills". Sneaking up and giving them a shaft to the neck gets you into some serious trouble like 100% of the time.

I still think this game will sale like the shit-to-gold-machine released recently.

Bioshock or COD 4 still will be the best game of the year IMO.

No, you are correct Toil. The game definatly doesn't live up to the hype, but rarely anything does.


The bread and butter (at least visually) is the shaders yet because of the way it seems coded, many other graphics related features are tied to those shaders. That one setting alone is the maker or breaker.

I don't know if this is a DX10 dependant thing or.....because some of the games getting DX10 support recently are all reacting the same in that dynamic shadows and overlay/filtering is the big cheese concerning the DX10.


Gameplay was alright. I suspect there will obviously be neater things to encounter in the retail relase. It just seems like a souped up FarCry, which is fine in itself as I really like FC, yet as I told Wile, I find it to be evolutionary, not revolutionary.


But I hope everyone who ran out and bought SLI and Quads just for Crysis don't feel toooooooo bad now :)

Maybe Shamino should run it on his 5ghz.

You should never base your entire opinion of a game solely on the demo. At least wait until youve played the full retail version ;)

I too noticed that I was plugging away at an enemy yet he wasnt dying! But I put it down to the fact that they have body armour on...which then prompted me to shoot them in the face for an instant kill ;) Also the guns have a hefty recoil to them, so you need to fire in short bursts, not spray n pray :)

OK one guy took a whole magazine in the torso to take down at close range. I've tried headshots to but they seem to work only about 75% of the time. Other times it just seems they are unaffected by my bullets at all. So a magazine of bullets can just take some of them down, but more importantly one thump with your gun can also do the same....:wtf:

It's like those James Bond movies, you basically flick someone round the nose or the back of the head with a gun and they get knocked out.

Yes definitely. I'm talking close range here. On the plus side, the graphics are superb and it is a pre-release. I am also very critical ;)

1680x1050 w/ 8xQ AA and all Med Settings. 20-30fps on movies and 40-60fps on game play.

Perfmon shows that my CPU is doing OK while the demo is going. (This is not on my RAID-0 config that is for Vista)
http://img.techpowerup.org/071027/crysisdemoperf.jpg

But that is at Med settings. I want to go w/ high settings. So a Quad for Core 2 duo w/ DDR2-800 or 1066 may be needed. I hope I don't have to buy a second 8800GTS because I don't think there is an Intel board that supports both Quad and SLI (well).

============
Also in the game play it is hard to aim w/ the reflex sight. Guns not very acurate. MP Beta was better on that.
============
Hope others are having better luck.

Buy a new pc;)

You apparently didn't see that my problem has been fixed, and it runs maxed now @ 10 FOS, lol..

Besides, I'm building a new one in a month or 2 anyway.

seems like i'm not the only one complaining about the lousy aiming.
Played the Demo again and it's still the same. I aim at their head from like 6ft/1m away, crouching + reflex/ironsight and cloaked so they don't move too much. Neither with the semiautomatic nor with fullautomatic 3shot burst I do kill them at rate of like 50%. The rest of the time I either hit them somewhere else (???) or i hit the beach, a tree, a wall or a polarbear.

And the melee attack is so useless I changed to just grabbing them with max strength and toss them in the air. Believe it or not, this draws less attention.

And @ hoopiesweet - I don't think the weaponssystem will change that much. And thats the mainpoint in a first person SHOOTER. If shooting sucks in a FPS it's like flying would suck in a Flight Simulator. I don't really feel like an elite-soldier sent to safe the world when I fail to take down an enemy with a full 40-bullets mag from a distance a little girl could throw a stone to kill him.

Well i took a few more screenies for people wanting to download this:

I had some fun with the physics of the game but noticed a few shortfalls..The barrels are fun to shoot... being filled with oil... also the bob nicely in the waves:

Only problem I found with the barrels, is that although they act pretty real floating around in the water, when you swim up to them in the water and try and push them its like hitting a brick wall.

Explosions are pretty wicked, thoujgh i noticed that when you blow up a car, the fire for the explosion will remain in the place the car first exploded, and burn for a while, whereas the blown up charred wreck will have the fire sound effect but be a black wreck in the distance.

The houses smash up pretty well.. put maximum strength on and mangle them is fun ;)

Its no way as good as i expected, but then again im on DX9, the highest setting i can use is HIGH and my monitor only supports native 1440X900 max..
I think perhaps this will shine one these few issues have been resolved and i have another graphics card in crossfire to take me to 1920res :)

It must be the difficulty setting, or I have elite precision aiming because I am taking them out in half a clip or less on normal.

Only thing I will rant about aside from some banding issues is the control system, its a bit clunky and when firing a weapon the bullets feel to take forever to leave the barrel, even with the machinegun.

twicksisted
10-27-2007, 09:48 PM
i never had issues with that... only thing i had issues with were the shooting people :P

I have been an avid /fps player since 1998 so im sure its not my aim ;)

I also noticed that i can hit someone miles away with the sleeper dart... but if i take the same shot with a single shot rifle, then itll miss...
I dont really have to be square on for the sleeper dart to work!

Why the hell is it just me, but if I put on maximum strength and try and take down a building, I can't actually do it. It doesn't budge.

Maybe I need to turn up physics?
