Speaking about the New York setting in Crysis 2, Crytek has revealed why it's symbolically important and why "nobody cared about the island" in the first game.
Featuring the complete nanosuit experience, The Crysis Trilogy has now joined the EA Access vault as a title that's free for those that subscribe to the EA service on Xbox One consoles.
YouTube’s members ‘Digital Dreams’ and ‘Jose cangrejo’ have shared some videos, showcasing Pascal Gilcher’s Reshade mod – which adds Ray Tracing/Path Tracing effects – in some really old games such as Star Wars The Force Unleashed, Crysis 2, RAGE and Resident Evil 6.
I'm still learning how to look for the differences. At first I was focusing on shadows for some reason but I don't think that changes much, is it reflections that change?
It supposed to add more realistic light Not actually more light effects and explosions
I hate to say it but I’m fine with fake lights, shadows, reflections. I just kind of like the effect, it’s also great it saves resources for other things.
I’ve been checking out some original Xbox games on x360/x1x and the engine has fake light streaming in through a stained glass window, and I love it even though I know it’s not real time lighting. Heck it even shifts as I move about.
I’ve about convinced my self rt and hdr just doesn’t work for me. Before hdr I would even complain damn why are the headlights killing me they are so bright.
I notice most frame rate, then jaggies, then resolution; with the last two interchangeable depending.
Other day watched an enthusiast rave over 4k and the poor guy was in 1080p. I played the same game the night before and thought wow this is clean, I wonder if it’s 4k, but knew differently and I thought wow even resolution is not always important. The next day he apologized and was surprised he could be fooled.
How come the lightsabers don't give off any light? Even in the EA star wars game the guy uses it to light up a dark cave. I guess if it is using frostbite it will support rtx cards.

Hehe... Random island is hard to care for.
Quite right. I'm just worried about how it's going to impact the freedom you had in Crysis. It was far from open world, but... I think it's going to be more difficult with a real city.
I agree with Djorgo, but still, I can't imagine myself caring for New York, London should've been the place!
Since the Jungle looked like shit on consoles; worse rendering distances i've seen.

I guess a more city based setup would allow them to shrink the scope and make it possible for consoles. Consoles have always done this to games that come from PC's; When haven't they?
<512MB Ram you'd be kidding yourself to see the PC version of crysis run and look decently on a console. Which is why they made a completely new engine/game to give them.
Not much looks better than a Topical Jungle; thats why they keep the same setting to display their graphical powerhouse in the best possible way; intill now..
