please could u all let me know what drivers u 64bit os uses use as im having preformence loss problems
I've tried 163.69 and 163.71 I get crap performance on both and on low/med/high settings so whatever. I tried different config files, all diff resolutions, I'll give the demo a chance but if they don't improve it they are not getting my money and I swear by that. We'll see if CoD4 gets my money. If CoD4 is a let down, theres no other games that really interest me, so I will switch to a PS3 for gaming.
I think I'll stick to HalfLife 2 SMOD or RedOrchestra. Sounds like this game is going to need a lot of optimisation before I'll touch it. Problem they have with the introduction of a new engine but I'm sure after a couple patches it will run well. Having a blast with those other 2 and they are built on "old" 3D engines which shows that you don't need flash gang graphics to make a solid game. They both play very well on Vista. Wouldn't touch a PS3 with a 10' barge pole. If I had to resort to console gaming I would go a Wii.
I agree, but beta3 does have better than beta2 performance. And just one thing gabe, you wont get dissapointed in COD4!! The 360 beta i played very much, is the most fun MP game I have played for a long time. Actually after the cod4 beta im more waiting on cod4 than crysis. Crysis is a beautiful game, but not near as much fun as Cod4, I guarantee it! Ps. And more importantly about the cod4, the Game LOOKS great and RUNS great! And didnt even notice any bad bugs!
i run the beta at 1280x1024 all high settings and dont drop below 30fps and avrg in the high 40's ,crysis runs very smooth,and are you kiddin me your tryin to run crysis on a 7900 at 1680x1050 ,THATS YOUR PROBLEM PRETTY SIMPLE .
I just don't understand how people with such similar computers get so different results with this game, it boggles my mind!
Well the devs said over and over and over again during the demostration videos that the engine was fully optimized for nvidia cards but it runs like crap! eeleft:
Game works pretty well on my setup. No real slowdown but th actual gameplay sucks. Its just too confusing and lacks direction/polish. I'm only interested in crysis for sp anyway to be honest. I prefere the look of quakewars ET and COD4. A more simplistic approach to teamplay but still very well executed. The money system, the lack of weapons, the crappy handling vehicles, not my cuppa tea really. I do know its only beta though so I can only really judge it once the final game comes out. Quake 4 ET may not have the graphical prowess of crysis, but the gameplay is where its at. Also wolfenstein ET was classic!
You guys need to download the new beta client, which is version 3. It vastly improved on my system. Im using 163.69, no complaints here.
