hello everyone

i was watching the xbox 360 crysis version on youtube, and i was wondering:
why didnt crytek made this crysis port to cryengine 3 for PC too? it would be great, with better performance, new visual effects, better otimization because of the new engine
i would really apreciate it and would buy the game again
Pc gamers suported crytek a lot, the modding comunity is awesome, crytek born in the PC gaming market
they should give us some attention

Yeah it'd be awesome! Crysis remastered on PC DRM free! :)
Could sell it on GoG.com too, would kickass.

With all the custom TOD's, textures and system.cfgs, I don't see much need for it

Better optimization and the fact that it'd be using all the features of CE3 is all I need.

The console version doesn't look as good as the original, and any mid-range PC can max the original easily; not to mention the PC version has a whole load of mods for both visuals and performance.. why would you want it?

CE3 features such as tessellation?

as i said in my first post

1- The Pc version of te game runs on the cryengine 2
the game has a worse performance otimization, and lacks lots of techniques that cryengine 3 have

sure there are lots of mods for the PC version, but most of them are just texture packs, unrealistic tod's (impossible to find a good one today)
there is a guy on crydev that made a whole new shader for crysis, but it have lots of bugs, unrealistic parameters and terrible performance

The remastered version, could make use of the amazing ce3 redering techniques, such as anamorphic lens flare, Gi, bokeh dof, all things that crysis Pc version lacks and cant be done with mods

and the performance otimization would be another important thing, sure a GTX 680 can max the game, but with inconsistent game performance, due to ce2 limitations.


@ESFER25, i think that tesselation can't be aplied in the original crysis assets, and tesselation is one of the dx11 features that is in it great part, pure marketing.
sure its a nice tech, but with the awesome crysis models and maps, tesselation is the technique that has the lowest impact in the game visuals
tesselation should only be implemented in a game, after that all the Tod's, models,textures,shader quality and light efects are already in its limits, cause any of them have much bigger visual impact
crysis 2 DX11 patch is an good example. they aplied tesselation in a lot of things, causing a massive performance hit for a litlle visual gain. if they have made a better tod for the levels, a proper texture patch, and real time reflections, the game would look better than the original dx11 patch, and with much better performance
the DX11 OMG TESSSELATION viral effect made lots of people put hype on it, and upgrade their systems for basically no visual gain


PS: sorry for my english, i really tried my best
if you didnt undertand something, please ask me and i will try to rewrite it

Console version does look slightly worse but a PC version of the remastered version of Crysis would offer even more opportunities to be explored due to the features of CryEngine 3 and saying that any midrange PC can max out Crysis these days is completely false.

I'm running a 3.2ghz Intel Quad-Core CPU, a GTX570 and 4gb of ram and my PC can bearly run it on highest settings (runs but with lag)

Then you have other issues affecting your performance.

And no, the console version looks more than slightly worse. Looking at screenshots doesn't cut it, go and actually play the game.

No, I don't have other issues affecting my performance. Everything else runs absolutely maxed out. Battlefield 3, Crysis 2, GTA IV, Episodes from Liberty City. Crysis is just poorly optimized.

Yes, the console version looks worse because it's on a console, if the remastered version were to be put on PC it wouldn't look worse because CryEngine 3 is more powerful then CryEngine 2.
