Crysis 2 DX11 and High Res Textures Update

Crysis 2 DX11 and High Res Textures Update

As a number of users were able to download the DX11 and High res texture packages from our test environment we would like to take this opportunity to explain how these files will work and our future plans via a short FAQ;

Where can I download these files?

We have removed the files from our websites until the full release date.

How do I install these packs?

Both the DX11 and High Res texture packages require Crysis 2 PC Patch 1.9 to work.  Without this patch they cannot be installed.

When will patch 1.9 be available?

Crysis 2 PC patch 1.9 AND the DX11 and High Res Texture packages will be made available on MyCrysis.com on Monday June 27th! 

Please note that the files will not work without the PC patch scheduled for release on Monday, more information about this including all download links will be made available to you via MyCrysis.com and our social network pages.  If you would like to see a list of changes made in patch 1.9 you can view them HERE.

    WTF? High Res Textures can be enabled only on 64-bit?
    What about us with 32-bit?

    Alright i know i have been ecstatic about this poatch but now i am experiencing a major problem on my SLi system. The fps is great and extremely smooth and the gpu utilization is never over 75% but the game has now started crashing to the desktop while the sound keeps playing in the background. This happens in single player as well as multiplayer and also in various levels not just the same level. Anyone else have this problem??

    It will make Crysis 2 look better (along with the hi-res pack), is that simple enough for you to understand?



    Really? How much better,like 2% better? DX11 isn't going to make it look that much better i hate to tell you people that, and the hi-res texture pack wont be noticed unless your weird asses are walking around hard aiming at leaves,When you should be playing the game! Is that simple enough for you to understand? lol



    Lol, Console troll.

    On my 'machine', that's an Icore7 930@2.80,X-58 MOBO ,6 gigs 1333 ddr3,2X5850 CF ,Audigy 2 ZS, WIN 7 x64 Crysis 2 with hi-res textures & DX11 patch it's runnig on Extreme and medium blur at 1080P perfectly around 60 FPS with Vsync on, still have to test this without Vsync ,with the Icore 7 with OC to @3.69 and @3.99,got a good cooler but it's 30ºC in my room right now, too hot to OC the CPU's at 3.99, and still have to look for tweaking on the Catalyst CC but the game looks pretty good and it runs as i expected to my system +- .Good job Crytek, i was awaiting for the patches , did not want to play it on DX9, so had not even seen the intro.......No additional problems , i'll still be testing for a while but i think it's been worth the wait.OK , bye........

    If you have the hardware to max Crysis 2 out (with DX11 and the hi-res pack) I think you'll be eating your words right about now.

    Now this is what Crysis 2 should have been from the beginning.

    And wtf do you think this patch is gonna do? You people are ridiculous you act like its gonna be a whole different game! Maybe you should check out the before and after photos of key features of directX11 on and off..You people are pathetic..Just wait it out and stop bitching and whining like little babys..You whine more then my 8 month old son! Go to work or something do something else!


    Well said Deathbringerrr..Some of these people are worse than babies! Probably spoiled brats who are used to getting their own way by swearing & insulting. They really should grow up and get a life.
