Skillers wrote: 98%.... Interesting. I somehow doubt it's that good, though, the story doesn't seem to have much to it. I would say 90s, but 98% is probably going to be a bit much. PC Gamer US: 98% PC Games (Germany): 94/100 PC Action (Germany): 92/100 Middle East Gamers: 10/10 IGN: 9.4/10 Gametap: 10/10 Gamestar (Germany): 94/100 Gamespot: 9.5/10 GameReactor (Norway): 10/10 GamePro: 4.75/5 GameDaily: 9/10 EuroGamer UK: 9/10 CVG (PCZone): 9.2/10 1UP: 8/10 That's a list compiled by http://www.incrysis.com |

Any score that is given out of 10 without decimal I never like. And PCZone do percentages. But yeah, 90-95% seems about right. Must read the 1UP review though. |

EA have lied to us. The promise that people who preordered officially will be able to play 2 days before the official release date is a complete lie. Typical EA. People have gone out to their local stores and bought the game before the 'priority' people who spent more money and preordered officially. |

Must read the 1UP review though. 1UP seemed to mince it quite a bit, but did not give it less than 8. It was interesting to read though. EDIT: According to people on the InCrysis forums, it is a bit innacurate and one of the poorer reviews (not as in a poor review of the game, but as in the review itself is poor). http://www.incrysis.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=12957&p=2 |

What could you expect, Aaron? Anyway, Met, while the review wasn't the best, saying that people on a fansite think it's a bad review doesn't really justify it, after all, they are fans. |

I was pointing out apparant factual inaccuracies according to people who have played the game. |

Nice, you played it yet? Also, you bought a BF2 booster pack? |

I played it for about 1 minute before I went to work, haha! I'm going to be playing it as soon as I get home. As for the booster pack... yes I bought that for my brother when Euro Force first came out. I think we played it for about 30 minutes before I felt physically sick and raped that I just paid £5 for a god awful excuse for a booster pack. It does very, very little to enhance the game in any way, and the weapons/vehicles are inaccessible in the rest of the BF2 games. |

Well... It's bloody good!! Apart from the fact that my system grinds to a standstill when I get to a very foresty section. I am running the game at 1280x800 in DX10 mode with no antialiasing and no anisotropic filtering. At a guess, it runs close to 10FPS, but probably less than that. Had to switch to low detail mode at this stage (where it went up to, at a guess.. 40FPS?) |

Use the ingame monitor to check your FPS. Personally I think they could have made it run slightly better. It doesn't appear well optimised. |

And now I'm experiencing the infamous cave system bug. I can't access the caves network because of a bug where the rocks have fallen inside the cave. Gotta wait for a patch I guess. |

So the destructible environment means you actually can't continue? Would it be possible to go back a few saves and hope? (And wow, that bug sucks, would probs confuse people too) |

I tried for ages to work around it but there's no fix at all. I even tried restarting the level, bear in mind that I am on the Delta difficulty mode, so that's no easy feat! ... But the cave was still blocked. I think it's a scripted, procedural event. The rocks are meant to fall in to the cave after you enter. I made a joke thread about it on http://www.incrysis.com, claiming that I have completed the game! |

I just hate it when people cant be bothered to read a someones whole post. It's pretty clear most of the people who replied to you hadn't read your whole post. What a waste of your joke.

Clicky Post made of win. Replies made of fail. LOL, nice one. It's also another proof that too many people just read a title and reply. Those people are made of fail. |

Or that he had speedrun it, lol. Anyway, Crysis is now available in shops, though I notice a lack of collectors edition over here. |

Well, what can I say... have been playing Crysis for about 10 hours now. I started the game in Delta mode as soon as I got it (don't wanna be a noob and run through the easy modes). What a buggy game!! Not as buggy as BF2, but buggy enough to annoy me considerably. Started up a thread on the http://www.incrysis.com website here: http://www.incrysis.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=14066 |
