I watched those videos yesterday and though the dx10 improvements were good I came away thinking the video's action favoured dx10.

In the hunter video they show a longer clip where the hunter sends more debris flying when it steps on it. In the dx9 video that event doesn't take place making it hard to compare.

In the jungle video I don't know if it is a result of dx10 but the character seems to shoot down more trees for effect.

again and again
dx10 is god and dx9 is a dinosaur ,,bla bla bla
and they choose crysis to make the difference...how convenient
ok evolution will go on it's way but one question arise
do the dx9 code programmers reached the final wall in dx9 and dx10 will make them happy again....?or it is a intermediary stage until dx10.a release?

possibly. isnt there some talk about a dx10.1 (or DX11) which will need another hardware upgrade??

and what happened to all that pixel shader 3 hype??? Only a few games use it

Reply to blade85

Sm3 will begin to get used more and more as hardware get newer and newer. of course now Sm4 is around, it will be the new SM3.

well it seems to me that game producers know how to milk our pockets
besides new hardware and new software to create almost realistic landscapes and games...well at first glance is awesome but...boring.
seriously the new games are totaly cool and so on but ..don't have what old games had.
my humble opinion

if not mistaken i heard that they already are looking to implement sm..5

Also, i have yet to see a video of crysis that shows of the great A.I they've been touting. In all the videos they just stand there and get blown to bits. Maybe i've been looking at them the wrong way or great A.I means they just stand there frozen in fear as most people would when a big guy with a gun attacks you, but in that regard i'm not impressed.

I do like the pretty pictures though

yes you have a point great A.I. to me is like that you have the gun and fire power, enemies use camouflage ...one distracts you and the rest of the pack...well there are a gazilion of scenarios but....a real life scenario and dx1o textures and we have a winner but ..until that we have to wait :wink:

Is nice!.............DX9 not so much. DX10 nice!

Reply to enforcerfx

The game looks awesome on both fronts.

It obviously looks better on DX10, but I think that's a big case of Benchmarketing.

Does anyone here honestly thing DX9 is incapable of portraying rain drops? Or Flamey debris? Or even motion blur? I can think of a dozen games right now that have motion blur.

Doesn't really matter. I imagine by the time this game finally hits the shelves 80% of us will be using a DX10 solution in some form. Mid-range or High-end.

It's a shame that none of the effects that are shown require Direct X10.

Reply to prozac26

You know what, I have had farcry since it came out and STILL havent finished it :lol:

I always end up formatting and forgetting to backup my saves and then I'm back at the start again, so i start playing something else.

Reply to randomizer

Farcry was great game imo.

Reply to Spikke

the videos are biased to advertise dx10.

Reply to desidude006

Of course, M$ probably paid them to make it like that.

Reply to randomizer

Although DX10 still does look significantly better than DX9.... im going to buy a 8800gts 320mb and i hope it runs dx10 games well.... if you look at the computer i currently have in my sig you can kind of tell that i am getting excited about playing dx10 games.....

Reply to jtm33

I dont think M$ has to pay anyone to do that. they probably did it to get more sales and show how nice their graphics are.

The game isn't that long & i don't expect that some pro guys like you said something like that!(unless you guys are so busy and don't have any time left for FarCry :wink: )
Maybe you guys wanna check this out!
Piece a cake! :tongue:
I disagree with SS that said he doesn't trust Crytek after FarCry cause that was an awesome game. :twisted:

some people like to finish games without cheating

Yes, i know i know, just in case of need...you know...sometimes...Poawww...Whatever! :mrgreen:

Cheating makes the game crappy.

Reply to bullaRh

Well let's hope this game lives up to its hype....DX10 or not.

I still enjoy playing MaxPayne and Return to Castle Wolfenstein some times and those graphics are a bit dated.

Why does dx10 even matter when you have to own a retarded drm OS like vista? I want to hear news about development for os' like ubuntu (currently using). I mean, c'mon, who wants to pay for somthing that eats your systems resources and screws up all the time, AND tells you that you can't back up crysis after you pay 60 bones for it? might as well just dump your dvd and cd burners in the trash if you wannna hit up vista and dx10... at least that's how I feel about the whole retarded microsoft thing.... I'm not even going to go into the x64 support issue in depth... but lets just say that i booted an x64 ubuntu, with no problems and use it fine every day... the only problems I run into is when dumb companies only support x86 based machines (dumb). Honestly... i've tried fot he past six months to get a well organized smooth running machine on win xp x64... and to no avail. I'm new to any form of linux and I had everything up on an x64 Ubuntu within less than 20 minutes! Yeah, eat your heart out M$ lovers... or rather, eat your wallet out, cuz they want more and more money! hense DX10 on Shista (vista) and only on shista! Do all of us pc gamers a favor and support OS OS' "open source operating systems". cuz when you have the customer working on the product... it's going to outscope ANY troubleshooting team that even the biggest company can buy! (hense why charity brings in more money each year than any company ever will) alright, i'll stop complaining now... but yeah, pretty picture on dx10...

I'll be the first to admit that Vista isn't perfect but I remember people having the same complaints about XP when it came out. I have Vista, it works great for me and will only get better with time.

As far as Crysis, the game looks amazing. Currently the most system taxing game I believe is still Oblivion with FEAR as a close second. From the way Crysis looks they don't make components yet that will be able to run it at high res with everything turned up.

FarCry was a great game and I hope Crysis will be at least equally as good. Hopefully Crytek will put the same effort into making the game interesting as it's doing in making it look good.

It's nice to know that I wasn't the only one looking at something besides the trees in that video.
Although it does look very good, in both DX9 and 10.

Dam Direct 10 looks so cool, but directx9 is not too far behind, is still good too.

Hopefully Ill get an 8800GTS soon

Well sounds like your linux system sucks cause my older xp ... os runs smooth and lockup free with intel guts . Yea xp had problems too but if it's setup correctly and updated it should never keep locking or crashing unless ya overdrive every component and fry your electronics . As far as VISTA ... sorry ya gotta have the newer board and cpu and mine is smooth as silk right now .... games run alot better with it .... hummmm maybe i'm doin something right and don't know it ..... :lol: Man ... i'm still running an older DX9 video card too ....

Reply to trooper1947

did you actually read what i wrote? Ubuntu runs fine... it was xp x64 that had no support for anything... oh yeah, and I acutally use my computer for more than looking at pr0n. You know, like running my wireless xbox controller through the usb (just one eg.) and xp x64 (a microsoft product) wouldn't even recognize it, not to mention a huge bundle of other random hardware I have laying around... ubuntu x64 on the other hand recognizes all of it... including the controller, right off the bat... hense the 20 minute set up... it'd be nice if you actually read and understood the post before you reply to it. So shista's working fine for you then? wow, good for you... x86 or x64? well, either way, have fun buying 2x the ram just to run the same programs I run.

Well, you won't be able to play Crysis. And a bunch of other games.

true.. tho i wont buy vista either unless there is a way of removing the DRM. i think its fair enough microsoft charges money for the OS but with all that DRM it just gets 2 much.

Reply to bullaRh

why the hell was there a quik time link, just messing, none the less its not a supreme improvement but improvement none the less, i will be looking forward to seeing some DX10 only games

Reply to dobby

yeah, i know I won't be able to play them... and that's gonna suck, unless somehow M$ sees that ubuntu is going to be their biggest competitor in the next few years and decides NOT to sue them into the ground (I still don't understand how you can sue a company that doesn't really exist, in conventional terms anyway) and instead either lets Ubuntu run some direct x stuff... or makes direct x stuff for ubuntu themselves (i'd prefer to see the former). I doubt it though, knowing most company policies in the US and major trends involving tech, M$ will just sue everyone they can to futilely try to keep the #1 os maker spot.

What? Far Cry was pretty good.

Certainly a better game than the competition i.e Doom3 and Hl2, two pretty but utterly generic fps.

In the Hunter video they were doing exactly the same thing.

Thats a level from Crysis single player and so as such is scripted. The Hunter will do the same thing every time.

All the additional debris, the stepping on the object, the weather effects - lightening and rain, the larger explosion and particle effects were all down to DX10. Play in DX9 and what you get is whats in the first video ie the scene minus the above.

Its an intermediary stage.

DX10.1 is just around the corner which offers hugely improved cinematic graphic capabillity and also performance gains through increased efficiency.

DX9 isn't graphically that different from DX10 at the moment. The disadvantage of DX9 is it can't render objects as efficiently and so this means that you can't have as many objects on screen or effects without bogging the system down.

Reply to Alsone

I think a DX10 game without a good gameplay is nothing... I don't care so much about all those effects when I get bored after 30 min of playing a game

that's my opinion...

So DX9-DX10 the same for me...

Reply to Paul_gren

i agree completley... well, almost... Good graphics are awesome but will only take a game so far... but i also think this is the reason we're seeing fewer and fewer playable demo's... cuz they just want you to buy the whole game... no confidence in the replay value... They eye candy gets you sucked in... that's pretty much all it is... that and geeks want the latest and best ALL THE TIME! haha... Personally I just want a pc that'll play games that look decent and runs all my crap without problems....(that's like asking for my crap to turn to gold but hey anything can happen)
