Do other games or developers use the crytech engine? I think its better than Far Cry2's Dunia engine by far and its already 3-4years old!!

You kidding? The engine is horrible. Too slow, horrific coding, and offers no advantages to other engines.

CryEngine 2 is very powerful engine capable of far more than any other DX9/DX10 engine in existence. The "horrific coding" argument is a pretty poor one considering you have probably never looked at the code. Compare the CryEngine 2 shaders to something from GameBryo (Oblivion) and you will see just how much cleaner they are. The key to this engine is getting the TOD settings right, and making the maps themselves good. The default Crysis maps, including singleplayer, do not do the engine justice at all.

Aion: The Tower of Eternity, an asian mmorpg, uses cryengine 2.

ed: according to the wiki page, it uses cryengine 1; but if its a "modified" cryengine 1, its hellllla modified.

Upon looking at the screens for that game it looks like its just a modified Crytech 1 engine. The small details such as plants and characters look dated and "flat" As you stated.... I should have put Crytech 2 engine in my title.... are there any games out using that engine. I think with more time and resources new developers could use that engine and creat a great game as well.......
