[Solved] ......But can it play Crysis?

Very, very, very, very poor coding. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjymm3ihxd8

Video card memory has a lot to do with being able to turn up AA from the games settings panel. I ran Crysis with a GTX260 OC'ed and had some problems with AA even at 2x here and there. I ran an MSI GTX260 with 1792 v-ram and would play with 8x and not have any stumbles...anywhere... at 1680x1050. He's running a 5870 and having problems. I didn't know ATI cards could enable AA. Wasn't there some kind of problem with that somewhere? I did run Crysis on a 4870 w/512 memory and it wasn't very good at that res. Ati supposed to come out with a 2gig version of that card. Can't wait. My personal opinion is that Crysis, like a few other games, needs more than the 1gig that the card has. Don't care how fast it is.

pointless.

really why are you following my posts and threads if they are so stupid?

they will be very expensive for awhile though

that is pretty interesting

is that another game?

never heard of it

if you wanna make a game that everyone will buy, and that endless advertisments will be done without your knowledge or even trying, make a game that only the best and latest equipment can play, then, everyone who reviews a gcard will post results it made with your game, every new piece of equipment released will have peoiple asking "can it play this game, and you make tonnes of money for doing less work than everyone else, but even though its poorly optimised, the in game graphics r pretty sweet

Poor coding? You can play with 20fps and have it feel like 40...name me one engine that can do that...???
also whats impressive is that just because an application is a little bit more advanced or ahead of its time people start all the fuss about how poor coding it is and all that stuff, Crysis isn't poorly coded, you can't expect a game to look that good without taking a severe toll on resources, get real people, crysis is about as close as it gets to photorealism and just because your weak old computers can't run it like they can run mario karts doesn't mean its poorly coded. Crysis is very advanced peice of software that is ahead of its time and gives outstanding quality and realism...aswell as good performance for the ridiculous graphics it offers.

Well it isn't really ahead of its time now, but making crysis was a really good busniss move, i really wouldn't be suprised if major GPU or chip manufactures like nvidia,ati, and intel actually made deals to make a game like crysis because people buy it and then when they see they cant run it, they go out and buy a better gpu, I can almost garentee that a massive amount of people baught a more powerful PC or GPU just for crysis. So it isn't stupid its a really smart busniss move and consumers really did fall for it. And crysis isn't an expiriement, its a great game and nothing comes close to its graphics for its time and even years after it. ITs better then games like Call of Duty who look like a damn cartoon show.

is Crysis patched to DX10?

if it is it will take another few years to be fully mastered

Hmm, so 'pure' DX10 that it plays on XP and DX9.

so why is there no difference between no AA and 8x AA on crysis? with the 5870
