Even against the people saying it's awesome in general and hinting at stuff?

azcn2503 · Mon Oct 08, 2007 9:33 pm

It's awesome in general. Awesomely beta'ish that is.

Skillers · Mon Oct 08, 2007 9:57 pm

I take it that it's not particularly polished, then?

It will be interesting to see how Met runs this games, as his PC is pretty much benchmark spec for a lot of gamers.

Lord Metritutus · Tue Oct 09, 2007 2:10 pm

Yea, well when I get home I only have to wait around 2 hours.

And hinting at stuff would break the NDA. I don't think there's anything wrong with saying it's awesome.

Skillers · Tue Oct 09, 2007 3:36 pm

I don't really see the point of the NDA, it won't achieve anything fro them really, being a public BETA.

It's not an open beta. It has been opened for brief moments yes, but in general it is closed. Not everyone can use it.

Skillers · Tue Oct 09, 2007 5:26 pm

It's quite open, and a lot of people do have it. I think a lack of NDA would let more people talk about it, building up more hype.

Crytek would still like to keep things under wraps until release. There are going to be several things in the full game that won't be shown in any of the beta's or demo's. They want to surprise the fans and the whole gaming community really.

Skillers · Tue Oct 09, 2007 6:10 pm

Erm, so how does a NDA on a BETA affect the surprise of something that isn't even in the BETA?

azcn2503 · Tue Oct 09, 2007 6:53 pm

Because.

Azraeleus · Tue Oct 09, 2007 7:04 pm

Lol I would get it but I fear the death of my computer...

I pwn recommended specs. I sense Crysis glory on this machine. They've obviously got things a bit more stable now. I can't wait to see the demo.

Skillers · Tue Oct 09, 2007 7:59 pm

That's incredible.... My computer is pretty much exactly the recommended specs, except I have 3GB, not 2.

Hmm, it's a big-un, I'm running out of space. :/

azcn2503 · Tue Oct 09, 2007 8:03 pm

Crysis will use a 77th of my hard drive space!

Skillers · Tue Oct 09, 2007 9:04 pm

bout 1/30th here, or 3/4 of my remaining programs drive...

Lord Metritutus · Wed Oct 10, 2007 8:47 am

Well, I come in at the minimum specs. :cry:

And Aaron, if you post a Crysis server IP I'll join you there at around 9-ish till 10:20-ish.

Azraeleus · Wed Oct 10, 2007 2:46 pm

Wow I might just be able to handle it bar the fact my RAM is lower than what I need..

Skillers · Wed Oct 10, 2007 8:14 pm

Haven't got 1GB?

azcn2503 · Wed Oct 10, 2007 9:00 pm

He has 512MB of Corsair Value Select DDR PC3200.

Skillers · Wed Oct 10, 2007 9:52 pm

Ah, I see, should upgrade it then, it's not like it's an expensive upgrade.

Lord Metritutus · Wed Oct 10, 2007 10:38 pm

The beta is so friggen awesome!!!

Skillers · Thu Oct 11, 2007 7:06 am

Why don't you tell us a bit about it? Is the gameplay fast? Do the vehicles drive well? How much pressure does it put on your system?

azcn2503 · Thu Oct 11, 2007 7:20 am

That really would be breaking the NDA!

It's the greatest game I've ever played. I'm so glad that my system will be able to run it. Especially after getting my second 8800 Ultra in a month or so.

Lord Metritutus · Thu Oct 11, 2007 10:33 am

I am thinking about making vids and taking screenies that I can show when they eventually lift the NDA (or if

).
