Crysis®

The Game doesnt start at all. Nothing I do brings it to work. Saw that a lot of people have trouble with crashes. This needs to bne fixed.

FINALLY! Gog Bin 32 folder contains now the C1-launcher exe - launch the crysis.exe of that folder and everything is smooth and DX10. To change "toggle/hold aim" and disable the usual stuff at 4k :) visit pcgamingwiki There´s also a link to a file to use parallax occlusion mapping together with AF. Game runs smooth with good visuals.

The game won't launch. Searching the web I found loads of people having this problem. Please fix! Right now I can't recommend buying it as it won't be playable.

For many years, including at the time of this review or retrospective, ‘Crysis’ is the benchmark by which players judge the power of their PCs. Such is the legacy of the game, and it’s easy to forget to talk about what a wonderful game ‘Crysis’ is. Needless to say, the graphics are wonderfully detailed, sound effects are booming, and sound design is top notch because you’ll need to pay attention to the sights and sounds of your in-games surroundings to succeed. Enemies are smart, but you can outwit them by using the power of your nanosuit and the geography of your predominantly jungle surroundings. Later levels of ‘Crysis’ are less open and play more linearly, but you’ll still need to make good use of the terrain and sounds you hear to stay alive, especially when the plentiful firefights get frantic and tough. ‘Crysis’ is not an easy game, but rewards you for playing smart and for your perseverance. Because of that, it is extremely rewarding, especially after a frantic firefight or boss battle. It’s a game I was more than happy to purchase again in DRM-free form so I can enjoy it again and again.

It was very harsh in the beginning - low ammo, frequent deaths, very poor fps on High settings. Then I discovered that going down from 8x to 4x anti-aliasing has a tremendous effect - fps doubled! Game changer, plus I got a hang of it and started dying less. This is the moment it got really fun! Overall I really enjoyed and got totally blown away by the graphics, physics and AI for a game from 2007! It aged really well and still worth to play it. A note here - I played on Linux through Wine. Basically no complaints except the hiccups with videos, that was indeed annoying! Other than that - butter smooth on my oldie GTX960 (well, most of the time, sometimes the amount of particles and fires were daunting for my config, causing ugly fps drops several times). Final words - highly recommended! P.S. Not a single crash, amazing considering that I played not under Windows!
