Screenshot Thread 2009

Okay, that's a great screenshot, but wtf was the point of posting it 20+ times?
Screens from DOWII opening movie, not great quality because it's going so fast, but still good.

Very immature of him. He has since then started to brand me a 'cod4 fanboy' hence the reason he brought the argument of another game into it...i have never compared the graphics of cod4 to crysis that would be just stupidity but when he continued to make comparisons i thought it wise to show him facts and figures. He obviously didnt like that. His attitude and behaviour on the forum is not to most peoples taste and sure enough after this post i make i will be shoving him back onto my ignore list before i stoop as low as the little cretin and say something i shouldnt.

Glad you liked you pic soet, maybe you should actually pick it up one day and give it a try.... you might like it.

Its so refreshing when other people post games such as GTA IV, Burnout, FSX which looks awesome i might add and anything new. Page after page of screenshots that have have been messed with one way or another gets boring.

Of course, I do agree with you about spamming of SSs, by SJ and can see how you could get aggravated by it, as I said earlier - he can sure be an "a-hole" but I don't know what exactly he is trying to do... troll or being sincere... whatever. The thing about "not my argument" - I'm just intervening to point out things that you might have said while being "pissed off"/involved in the argument.

These game vs game things can surely start due to more or less nothing and escalate quickly for no "real" reasons...

That is good dawg!

In bold - for sure, though SJ appears to have taken the "feedback" on board and reduced the spamming at least to some extent. Still can be an a-hole for sure though...

Trix you're a pathetic figure, stop harassing and whining. I don't spam crysis shots anymore if you havn't noticed. You're a pure good example of an ignorant selfgood idiot. Just leave it man. There's nothing more to discuss. The ppl here likes the few high quality crysis shots i post. And if you didn't hate crysis u wouldn't mind at all that i post some screens. Your age is a mistery to me but you act childish and try to convince us otherwise. Stop with what you're doing, it doesn't make the atmosphere here good. If i was the owner of this board, hell even a moderator i'd not hesitate to ban you for a week or 3 to make you figure out not to bring trouble and dumb pointless discussion in a SCREENSHOT THREAD where it's purpose is to post screenshots of games. I post a few screens, a few more and you start open your dumb mouth. Just Quit It Please!

The story actually seems pretty good so far, and the gameplay and graphics are great.

You don't get to control all the units on the filed, only certain ones, but this way the games feels more relaxing and less stressful. I like it :')

I just...kinda... Remembered! It's that game where you start off choosing your character out of a bunch of random people / monsters, and you can be good or evil or whatever, but the starting area is really well covered in thick purple fog. Sound right? I've actually got the bloody game at home but never played it... I gave it to a friend of mine and he really enjoyed it, but I only ever saw him play it just a little bit.

Also, admins who may be reading this Crysis debate. I urge you, don't do what Guru3d (read; Fail3d) did and instate a 'zero tolerance' policy on the screenshot thread. That is just about the most downright stupid thing anyone could do, and it'd bite you in the ass. These arguments are great, and regardless of how personal they get (as personal as can be sitting in front of your computer typing harsh words to someone thousands of miles away), it's actually quite enlightening. I've learnt more about Crysis and CoD4 in these last 5 pages than I ever would had the arguments not been there.

No one can get along perfectly forever, that's a given. Just don't punish anyone else over it, and most certainly, do not destroy these great threads because of it.

Didn't know what the hell I was doing but it looked pretty.

Love that Cryscape, in all regards. The border really brings it out.

@ Koko56, thanks for all the comments on the FSX shots!

Here's more FSXscapes of NSW Australia, west of Coffs Harbour. The elevation mesh comes from the Shuttle Radar Topology Mission(SRTM) data, so every hill that you see is there in real life, and the landclass data is all placed by hand, which tells FSX which terrain textures to use for a given area.
