Anyone else play crysis yet?

game is sick.. even on my sub-par system I can play it on all high settings flawlessly and it is so realistic..

I just got it a little while ago and can run things on Medium with everything still looking pretty good once you get used to the pop-up. And if you run on low settings it looks worse than Far Cry, which runs silky smooth on my computer

But OH GOD the bugs. There was one part where it was pure plot - no combat and I killed myself three times. Once by picking something up, throwing it at a wall and having it hit me, once by a friendly NPC moving a tank when I was right next to it, once by activating speed and running into a tank.

Meh, i haven't been bothered by glitches(although they sound more like accidents then glitches) My system runs it at stock settings well enough. Lots of fun, I was initially concerned that since the most expensive game setup money could buy at the release couldn't max out settings, it stil might be too much for my computer at what i call playable graphics levels. (Minimum settings are never playable graphics levels) It really is a beautiful game. Lots of fun to, im replaying on delta force mode so i can listen to the koreans speak korean.

I haven't been bothered too much by the glitches although they have cause a few issues... other than that the game is outstanding although I can't get it to work with alcohol 120% which I prefer to do...

i'm waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too addicted to Sins of a Solar empire and Call of duty 4, but I did play it a bit at a lan party and I wasn't really impressed. I mean it looks very pretty, but honestly I've played games with worse graphics that have held my attention longer.

I've been playing it since it came out, and it never seems to get old somehow...

I've managed to get the patches sent to me here in Iraq, so the glitches and bugs that afflicted me in the early going have been dealt with...

Usually play at 1440x900, everything on medium, and it looks spectacular IMO.

I'm excited about coming home sometime in the next two weeks, so I can build my new system and let the frag-fest begin...

(COD4 and COH/COH:OF also look outstanding at 1440x900)

Love da Crysis! First off, I got it for $5.00 (ya FIVE bucks) because WalMart here screwed up!

But I love the game. I didn't have any bug problems until I beat it 3 times and then loaded some cheats on it... but nothing outrageous. My AMD X2 2.4Ghz and 8800GT @ 740/1805/1050Mhz run it beautifully on all Very High settings... and one of the few perks of playing on Vista is the DX10 effects. Definitely one of my favs.

Got right up to the last boss and.... they're telling me to use a gun I never got. And sometimes I fall through the ship if I stand in the wrong spot.

I don't know how you guys are avoiding these bugs

As far as falling through the ship, hasn't happened to me. But i did run into the problem of missing the weapon thats needed for the last boss. Had to start at a save before i got to the boss arena, and go look for it(pissed me the hell off). Soon as i got out there i was aww crap(but a little more colorful on the language) The game likes to make you rush right there, but isn't at all linear, letting you skip important crap(well, sometimes anyways).

Im waiting till i get my new system built i doubt my radeon x600se can handel it at the lowest settings lol! but ill be rocking it once i get my 9850 phenom and a 3870x2 im waiting though till the 4850 series cards come out because i figure the 3870's will drop in price then.
