I was watching a few of these. This game is fucking gorgeous, but it looks generic to me..maybe I have to play it.
I'm not allowed to talk about this game. Shame cos there's so much to tell. Ho hum. You'll have to guess if the stuff is good or bad.
I don't like the looks of it. I mean with the high system requirements, how many people are going to be playing this game anyway?
Look at the original Far Cry. That game's multiplayer is pretty dead.
Same with the recently released Medal of Honor Airborne from EA.
The only way I can Crysis having a diverse and long-lasting online community is if it comes to the consoles.

lubczyk , its not really fair to compare this with FarCry....Crytek stated that the multiplayer was tacked on as almost an afterthought plus there was some fundamental issue with the network code.
The MP for Crysis is quite involved as it uses some ideas from RTS games along with tons of customization and plenty of vehicles. ATM its still quite rough but theres a ton of potential that should come out once its been polished.

Ditto. Visually it looks really impressive, but the gameplay looks rather run of the mill. I think UT3 will have better, long-term multiplayer. Going to have to wait until we get closer to release and more substantive reviews start coming out before I decide to get this or not.

If I can play it on my PC I will. It looks like just a regular shooter in multiplayer, but a well done shooter nonetheless and with some nice touches. I like the idea of being able to switch between your powers. Single player, as expected, looks lush.
We'll see how it all plays I guess but multiplayer looks like a lot of gun-fun!

yes but still how many people will have the rigs to play it?
I mean some supercomputer guy might play with his supercomputer friends at LAN parties, but how about open online sessions?
I just don't think that there will be enough people playing to make clans feasible, et cetera.
It's great to go back and play a couple of games of CounterStrike 1.6 because there's a whole bunch of people playing, all the time.
It's like the MMO Game Vanguard - Saga of Heroes - there's just not enough people playing because the system requirements are such a barrier to entry.

I'm just not at all impressed with the competitive aspects of the weapons. From the multiplayer videos it seems far more efficient to spam your enemy to death (due to the low recoil and high firerate) than it is to sight and aim shots. I'm also not at all a fan of the nano-suit, making oneself incredibly fast only leads to frantic spray and pray in my experience. The engine is fantastic but I just don't think I'm going to enjoy the gameplay.
You would think Crytek with their amazing new engine would include gibs in the game. Guys just falling over when you shoot them is no fun. Also wouldn't be awesome to tear enemies apart with yor nano-suit? It's going to be another boring FPS.
