Funny, I thought the same thing until I expanded it and saw the detail on that Korean guy's face.

That's not it. It's just that it was shrunken down to about 800x600 before I expanded it. So all the textures were condensed and it looked Middle-Grade-XP-ish. :-/

Some of them look ridiculously real regardless of scale, however.

Holy shito. That is frickin' big. The scenery could pass off a photos. o_O

I bet my friend's dad's computer could do that. He's rich and His computer moniter is like... a 52" Plasma TV, no doubt it will be a powerhouse too.

Crysis on PCs: What the PS3 wishes it could do

I've been wondering about that, and now I've confirmed it; Crysis with all of it's fan dangles would make a PS3 explode. AoTS experimented with running Crysis on Very High including all extra features with FRAPS running in the background. They were able to squeeze out 25-30 frames, but that was it.

They did the experiment with the new HP BlackBird 002.

Of course I've also seen comments on GT about this, where members were getting pissed because they couldn't run the game on high and get above 10 frames with their thousand dollar computers.

Well, thats part of the problem. Thats really not that good of a system to be running the game on max.

But also, you need to remember the style of Crytec games, in which they make the games so that they can run well on low-end systems, but at the same time, as computers improve, their games can continue to push the systems to the max.
Farcry was used as a benchmarking game for years, where as most games will see, at the most, a year as being used to test the power of systems.

That alone creates a problem, because $1K systems SHOULD be able to run this game on max settings, or any game for that matter, why do you have to spend so much money on a system so powerful the only thing you'll be using it is for crysis.

Its not the gaming industry's fault that mankind has become unstable in these past 10 year.

And then, does that mean a pre-built system, or a self-made system? Because for pre-built systems, to run current games on good settings, you are looking at shelling out around $5k.

Second, I'll explain why what you are demanding is very much pointless.

First, you can only optimize graphics and code so much before you start to lose quality.
So then, given that Crysis has already been optimized, all they can do is really lower the quality.
So, to do what you are asking, to have the max settings be runable on a $1000 PC, there is ONLY one option. That is to lower the over-all graphics of the game(ie: low becomes medium, medium becomes high, etc).
It doesn't change what can run on your PC and what you see. It just cuts off the max settings of the game and give the lower settings "higher" names.
But by what Crytec is doing, when people upgrade their rigs three years from now, they will be able to enjoy Crysis yet again with the amazing updated graphics, instead of it simply becoming "that old game with out-dated graphics".

So, with this in mind, do you want to maybe retract what you said?
Really, what you are suggesting is bad for the consumer, the Producer/programmers of the game, and computer engineers.
I was going to say it does more bad than good, but the only real "good" that your suggestion does is that a person's verbal name for his graphics settings would be max, instead of high. He wouldn't get any graphical improvements. It would just have a more important name... Real good that does somebody...

Actually I didn't mean that at all,
the problem im describing consists of two things, and neither have to do with game devs, first of all, the overpricing of 'high-end' hardware that creates this problem in the first place because it costs so much to be a serious gamer.

secondly, its the ideology of people, that says "1k computers shouldn't be able to do this", if we changed this, we could cut the prices of computer hardware to the point where someone doesn't need that much money to enjoy high graphics.

What you are suggesting would not only destroy the electronic market, but also the economy.

Using the same argument, I could argue that a Lamborghini should not cost half a million dollars, but should instead cost what most other cards cost.
Some hardware is slightly over-priced, but not by much. Mostly it's the graphics cards, by about $50. taking off $50 is not going to save you a lot.

Yea, it would be nice if everything was affordable. But thats not how things work. It's part of supply and demand, economy.
