Oh damn, now I got to go dig this game out n play it

I still have the hopes of a Crysis Remastered with Vulkan/DX12 for PC in back of my mind, I think about it at least once every 2 months.

But I do want a really big overhaul, like more AI's, not spam, but just more challenging, without changing the stealth and sneak aspect of the game, the player can choose to go sneaky from the start, or barge in, or transition in the middle, that should be preserved, obviously it's the gameplay and the whole console-style rendering defaults made it so dizzy to play crysis 2 and 3, stupid HDTV console fov settings piss me off big time, nothing else pisses me off more than that. And ofcourse the FOV is locked on the singleplayer mode for COD4MW remastered, making the whole thing totally useless, I can't believe how stupid these "so smart" analysts at the big publishers are to not understand how it can be a lost sale because of just one tiny setting.

You are right about that! It seems the games that license the Cryengine are missing something. Look at Homefront: The Revolution, and Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 faces. They just don't come close to Crysis 3, which was done way back on Cryengine 3. We're on 5 now. Prey looks worse graphics wise than Dishonored 2, and it's on Cryengine 5, whereas DH 2 is not on any Cryengine.

One exception is Everybody's Gone to The Rapture, on Cryengine 4. It looks gorgeous and will absolutely choke most computers with its detail level.

Rant over.

That's just it - there is a reason we are still coming back to original, full-on CryEngine games in 2017, its because the engine is way too resource heavy for smooth gameplay if you enable all the bells and whistles even with very fast GPUs. Its a returning theme surrounding CryEngine. With all its beauty it is not so very efficient, and if you do add lots of LoD and other stuff to make it bearable, it loses its unique feel and looks. Its the engine that is at fault here, you just can't have both.

Let's face it, beyond the extremely high level of detail (which is nothing more than a high texture res and barely using any LoD, it ain't rocket science..) the biggest perk of CryEngine in Crysis 1 was the implementation of physics *alongside* all of its beauty. The world feels organic. Most other CryEngine games don't have this organic feel to it, quite the opposite: its because the physics are only half- or not at all implemented. End result: it doesn't feel like CryEngine, but runs smoother.

The importance of good physics engines is very much underestimated among devs. Its an afterthought, but if you look historically at the greatest games, the ones we all view as the next benchmark for graphics you end up with: Half Life 2, Crysis 1, Far Cry 1... all of them heavily physics-driven games/engines. Even back when AGEIA still existed, it was PhysX that made Unreal Engine shine.

They still also make money licensing their Cryengine, which gets updated periodically into new version numbers.

You mean, the version number is updated periodically to make it "new and improved!", but nothing else?

For a moment there i thought there is new Bioshock game in town, developed on Cryengine. High Hopes were shattered in an instant!

Anyway does anyone notice that this mod makes you literally a wolverine? What are those spikes?

Everything works install wise But It looks like someone smeared Vaseline all over the screen, and the gun sounds are pretty bad. Other than that it looks amazing the water & textures are gorgeous for a 8-10 year old game.

Thanks for the mod package.

Well here are
50 On The FLy Reshades for any game,use Apex for clear non Vaseline look lol.

For the sounds if you want some help deleting the crappy sounds,just reply which gun.

I should update this with new textures and cut back on the mods ,they all can not load at once.

Yea I'd love that, been trying to find textures that work ok with the tactical mod I have feel in love with recently. Almost every time CTD.. I think I found some 4.9 GB textures from a Old YT video that shows the mods working together ok but who knows.. if you do update I'll try it out for sure.

I'll definitely be trying this as I never thought Crysis could look any better than stock, tbh.
