So... has Met kept a copy of what was written, cos I want to read it.

I'm guessing no, and Azrael has forgotten it, I think.

He did say something in MSN about it being a bit like BF2 with the style of play (IE control points) mixed a bit with CSS (buying equipment). Sounds like quite a good idea to me, though there may be problems with people getting the better weapons first and completely owning.

I also think the main aim of the game is to get the "nuke tank" which you use to destroy the other base.

I really enjoyed playing this again last night. I was repeatedly killing a guy called Stryder, though not purposely!! He just happened to be everywhere I was, and by the time I had captured the weapons facility, well, he didn't stick a chance really, and neither did anyone else.

I can't really tell you much more about it because I think it violates the NDA, and I don't want to put myself at risk!

The nuke tank was amazing. Seeing the explosion was just immense. Looked insanely realistic and didn't cause the slightest bit of lag =]

Just wait til we get DX10 servers!
Edit: Because the environments will be destructible. I'd also like to see what a nuke-at-night looks like.

Lol, it's gonna be an awesome game for sure. Will be good to see it when its complete though.

Just for a laugh...

MAXIMUM STRENGTH!

Lol Maximum strength... More like death at the sight of you xP

ROFL, WTF!

Yeah, you told me about that Stryder dude, sounded awesome.

I want to know why dx9 servers can't be fully destructible, and weather it's just the server or every player on it.

I can't imagine they were even thinking of destructible enviroments with dx9. So my guess would be it just wouldn't run it properly.

Hmm, I didn't know DX10 changed any of the physicy stuff, I thought it was all graphics stuff...

I have no idea... Thtat was just my guess really I don't really know much about the dx stuff..

Yeah, DX10 is just graphics. But for some reason, multiplayer physics is DX10 only. I guess it's a reason to buy Vista.

Well that's interesting, maybe it needs some fancy graphics do do the destructing.

Didn't you say all the physics was processor based Aaron? That could be a possible reason..

It might need the extra in the DX10 to make it work properly. Or maybe its another lame ass ploy to make peple buy vista...

DX doesn't really control the processor, it more runs the plug ins, like sound and graphics. Anyway, we've had processor based physics for ages, as in any game with physics has had that (just to please Aaron, except the one game that is PhysX only).

Like I said. I have no idea about DX.. So as I previously said it was just a random guess...

What it does I have no idea but it runs the game and the game supposedly needs it so there is nothing left to say about it :/

DX is a graphics API; it's just a way of showing things on the screen. The physics are managed by the CPU as SSE instructions - the more cores you have, the better it will perform!

So therefore it makes no sense to be DX10 only :/

Yeah I don't get it either.
But it means that once again, I can achieve some bragging points.

For owning Vista? I could do that, but I really don't want to...

Yes, and all its nonsensical niceties.

Heh, the thing is I don't want Vista, not enough incentive, even with all the Crysis stuff...

I think that if I were an XP user and I were playing the Crysis Beta, the thought that it would look even better on a Vista machine would make me produce cream.

LOL, well tbh I don't really care if it it'll look better on an OS that I don't want to use, if it looks good in DX9, that's fine by me.
