Best levels in Crysis?

I'm curious as to what you guys found were the best level(s) in Crysis single player. Here, in game order, are the levels.Why you enjoyed them, or why you didn't enjoy the others. Level spoiler images below naturally, just in case some of you aren't quite sure which level is which.

My opinion about the Crysis Levels:
Contact 10/10
Recover 10/10
Relic 10/10
Assault 10/10
Onslaught 8/10
Awakening 10/10
Core 0/10
Paradise Lost 9/10
Exodus 10/10
Ascension 5/10
Reckoning 5/10

I wasn't a fan of most, but I do like tanks so even though Awakening was the level where the game went from slightly non-linear to tunnel vision I still rate it fairly well.

The final level was so poorly made that it doesn't deserve a rating. It is possible to get out on the flight deck and face the mothership without having the TAC Cannon to beat it with. It is possible to fall through the flight deck into the hanger or even right into the ocean. The performance is horribly bad and there's barely anything but water around outside.

played it twice.. I think I enjoyed Awekening & Paradise lost too..now starting to play Warhead - 2nd time..

I liked the tank battle a lot. IMO it should have been much grander. Tough call on rest of game because there was a lot of good "little" battles.

all of them except acension that was the only map i hated. crysis is the best game on pc.

The one where a chopper stalked you at night was Relic. It ends in a graveyard. Other chopper levels were Assault and Onslaught. Assault is a harbor where you're dropped off by VTOL, and onslaught is a huge tank battle.

Yeah I am fighting my way thru Ascension. I agree that the game takes a MASSIVE drop in quality after core. Very well done, but I think it could have been much better if the alien interactions were handled in an abstract way, with the Koreans still fighting you most of the game. Would make more sense and be more enjoyable.

REEEALY enjoy the crazy aliens with insane physics. Good stuff.

best,
