What Score Do You Give Crysis?

[ASUSEN7900GTX]

i gave it a 7 simple as that

since it is made for nex gen hardware who the heck wants to play crysis in a year or so probably alot better games out by then

The graphics engine definately gets a 10 from me. as for a total rating I would give it a 9 based on the first couple levels, but the quality seems to be dropping the further I get into it. I haven't finished yet so I'll hold final judgement until then but I'm leaning 8.5 or so right now.

Farcry was the graphics benchmarks for a very very long time. And I'm definitely going to play it again with faster hardware.

Well, no game is perfect or without some flaws, but judging the game on what it is (and not what it could be), and based on the total experience, the graphics and gameplay, this game is a 10.

Other games that deserve a 10 this year: Bioshock, COD4 and Portal.

[ASUSEN7900GTX]

i mean say 1 year or 1 1/2 years from now on a new Quad Core 9800 series i doubt i would dust off Crysis since so many new DX10 games have emerged

ok this is my opinion i think ASSASIN´s Creed will subdue Crysis i mean a bunch of people are haling(spelling) COD4 and somewhat Bioshock over Crysis due to it being a game for future hardware and thus making today´s hardware somewhat aged and outdated.

so we have Alan Wake, Assassin´s Creed HL2 ep3 (?), brothers in arms hell´s highway or something like that, Far Cry 2 Fear 2 i mena Crysis is going to be in somewhat hard position of being the best game damn i doubt it will get the GOTY it´s more likely COD 4 or Bio get´s it and this is why Crytek thought wrong they did a boomer nad now they have to rethink and redo Crysis parts II and III

8.5 ,
I just finished it 2 minutes ago (albeit without the nice graphics) and I think theres room for improvement

Apart from the annoying bugs (floating no AI aliens)

Theres not enough actual story apart from the usual B-Movie-esque stuff we are used to, Theres no answers to any questions or explanation

The balance on the nanosuit timing is quite frustrating

Most of the carrier seemed to be cut scenes and go there press that button...
The suit is pretty pointless on the carrier also.

its just too short,What is it with games these days??? ,

I still haven't finished FarCry, FarCry2 had better not be the same as this.
While im talking about FC, hiding behind bushes and sneaking is more fun than being invisible
Having only rocks to hide behind to do the sneaking forcing you to use the suit is annoying.

I am looking forward to playing with an actual graphics card though instead of this speak-n-spell, The ending looks pretty.

Is there any way we can create an NVnews game rating system?

That would be awesome!

don't forget my 6.5 since you forced me to give a 7.0 :lol:

[MowTin]

6.5 but the lowest your poll will go is 7.

Look at the score distribution. Notice how it peaks at 9.5 and then tapers off all nice and gaussian-like to 1 at 7.5? Now notice that spike at 7.0. That spike is the curve-breaking spiteful scorers :p

I think the 1 to 10 scale is more like the school grading system. A 9.5 is an A+ or 95% and a 7.0 is a 70% or C-.

Your 6.5 is a D and is quite unreasonable. If you're a professor you would give Crysis a D? Even if you hate it you should give it a B- or C for technical innovation. ;)

Good idea!

What did it innovate? Sure it had pretty graphics, so did Doom 3 when it came out but that doesn't mean that it was a great game. Doubtless that there will be games with better graphics that will have an even worse story and more bugs than Crysis in the future.

Compare Crysis to the early build videos that we were shown before, doesn't even look the same. Its just like Oblivion's bait and switch :lol:

the game was overhyped and was nothing more than ordinary. For its mediocre story, terrible ending, and horrific performance I would give it a D.

For bra sizes "D" is actually good :captnkill:

[Absolution]

the fact that while the story is linear, the way you go about finishing objectives is almost 100% dynamic, thats whats innovative

[LORD-eX-Bu]

whats so innovative about that? Games have been doing that for years.

[JasonPC]

Overhyped... yes of course. But I think they did deliver what they said they would, no bait and switch. It really makes me wonder why they decided to make the game a trilogy though since it is on the short side. Considering how advanced the game engine is though, I guess you have to cut them some slack. It is longer than quite a few other games and the multiplay is very solid, unlike Far Cry.

[Logical]

I'd give the graphics a 8.5 (would be higher if it ran smooth at full)

The gameplay I would give a 3

and the multiplayer i would give a 2

Based on the game itself and not just the graphics i give this game a generous 4/10.

[hordaktheman]

I'd give it about 8.5. The first half was excellent but it tapered off quite a bit after the mines.

[technoid]

I just got through with Crysis and gave it a 7.0.

I would give it a 10.0 if it didn't have any of the alien levels in it. Not that I'm against aliens in a game, alien vs predator 2 was a 10 to me. But the alien stuff in Crysis was done poorly and didn't work for me at all.

So I'll give it a 10.0 for the levels up to where you go in the alien ship and a 4.0 for everything after that, which is my 7.0 for the entire game.

Now I'm going to start it again so I can play the good part. Then I'll stop when I have to go in the alien ship.

[$n][pErMan]

Just beat the game... loved it! :D I can't wait till nVidia comes out with a new line of better GPU's. I'll come back and play this game all over again with everything on Very High :) Perhaps that was part of the reason they broke the game up into a Trilogy.... for now it pushes all hardware to the max and then some, but by the time they release the next part of the game most of us will have hardware capable of running very high at super high resolutions :) GG! Plan to play this again untill then just for fun :)

[spirited1]

Next gen graphics, no doubt.

The gameplay is not innovative, however. Once you look past the graphics you're left with a feeling of deja-vu.. from Far Cry to Project IGI and loooooads of titles inbetween, I've done all of this before, many many times. Crysis does have a few neat features such as the suit, but not enough to make it stand out.

10 for the awesome graphics. 6 for the average gameplay.

Crysis gets a fair 8.

[SH0DAN]

I rated Bioshock a 9.5/10,many years ago with Planescape a 10,HL2 a 8/10,Half Life a 9,Halo a 5/10,Halo 2 a 4/10,COD4 a 8/10.

I hope Ubisoft Montreal use the Crysis engine for the next Dues Ex game.I just a lot of devs use this engine in the future.

I would kill to see some AAA RPG pc single player titles usee this engine.

Fantasy or Sci Fi mind you.

[MowTin]

Well, I finally beat the game on Hard. So, I can finally rate this game.

It's really a tale of two games.

The first half is like FarCry's first half. You get a nice taste of freedom along gorgeous visual splendor. The first half of Crysis blows away any other FPS.

The second half has flying the vtol, zero g, escorting you know who, and some nice final battles. In the second half you totally lose any sense of freedom and exploration. The second half is a more linear affair like COD4.

Unfortunately Crysis does not do linear as well as COD4. COD4's linear gameplay is always fun and never boring like the vtol, zero g, and escort missions in Crysis. I must also point out that the ship in COD4 looks better than the Crysis aircraft carrier but runs much more smoothly.

I must aslo complain that the female supporting NPC looks terrible. Couldn't they find a cuter girl?

The escort mission was certainly a low point. It's completely out of place in this game.

However, the final boss battle and ending helped to bring life to what was a really unchallenging and dull second half.

If the second half were a separate game I would give it a 7.5.
I would give the first half a solid 10--totally outstanding.

I would rate Crysis a 9.0 if it weren't for the outstanding Sandbox Editor. The editor is very promising and I suspect we're going to see some amazing mods.

Crysis gets my vote for PC GOTY.

I score Crysis: 9.5

[nutcrackr]

9.3

As mentioned the last parts of the game were rather on the poor side, had the game been like the first 3 levels to the end with a bit less but more intense aliens battles I would score it higher. When it was good, crysis was very very good.

Its my goty so far, Stalker and orange box aren't too far behind
