Fell sorry for the employees, but Crytek need to look back at how their previous games were supported, and at the end of the day not fixing issues, abandoning multiplayer, releasing a fancy tech demo, people eventually see through this and dont bother anymore.

Crysis is one of the worst series i've seen, with the only special thing is graphic. those game are a big fail(except warhead which was short but good). Still shame for all those people that lost their job.

Says COD fanboy... Crysis 2-3 is pretty much COD like and dumbed down version for consoles.

i am not COD fan, thought COD4 is way better than any crysis minus the graphic. To my opinion, crysis was one of the worst or maybe that a strong word... less enjoyable games i ever played, suits for you?

Thats what happens when you betray your core audiance, and when you think that graphics make 70% of the game (according to crytek).

I feel that this can largely be blamed on a few things: 1) Ryse 2) Consolification of Crysis 2 3) The absolutely appaling storylines of Crysis 2 and 3 (Crysis and Crysis Warhead, though by no means masterpieces, were at least functional).

Crysis is a snorefest known only for its graphics.

I kind of liked Crysis, the story was a huge mess, especially in the 3.rd, but the gameplay was nice and you could be quite creative, there was something very satisfying with using stealth, armor and strength to take down a bunch of baddies, and modifying the weapons, I wouldn't exactly call it a generic shooter, it was definitely tweaked more than your average Call of Duty game where you just run in guns blazing. Would be a shame to lose them as they seem to know what they are doing on the graphics front.

so the moral of the story is that Don't fk with PC gamers and the hands that feeds you. I guess NEXT Gen piece of **** consoles couldn't save them. **** went down hill soon as they partner with with AMD. "Crytek have struck up a partnership with technology pioneers AMD to add native support for their Mantle graphics API to CRYENGINE"
So they are going down, because they have partnered with AMD? I don't get the logic...

Ehhhh....I can't agree. Crysis 1 and Crysis Warhead I liked a lot. After than it just became a console fest. Same with Farcry 1......after that...no ty. All this hype into FarCry3 and FarCry4.....I just didn't like 2 and 3 at all. FarCry4 just looks like 3 in a mountain...so no ty again.

The first Crysis was amazing. Sadly it went downhill from there on. I feel sorry for the employees, poor management YET AGAIN.

Mike Read, as I mentioned in other threads on this is the main culprit. He is/was the lead on Crysis3 and was/is the main guy on Ryse. He also is partly responsible for the death of CCP Games and massive lay-offs over the last 5 years. He had no experience in the industry, yet was given huge responsibilities in areas of critical company business. He is the one to point fingers at, everybody. He is the one, and not The One, as his ego has led his brain to believe.

If Microsoft and Sony didn't partner with AMD the hardware would have been even less capable. Unlike the last gen (360 and ps3) they want to make money on them straight away. This is not possible with more powerful hardware and the prices of the new consoles. It has been mentioned (subficially) this gen console won't be around as long, and best guess if they stick with AMD is a new one in 2016. This is when AMD replaces the Bulldozer derived Excavator with a completely new architecture. In terms of Crysis 3 being DirectX 11 only, that is fair enough. Supporting DirectX 10 and 9 means considerably more work, I'm surprised developers haven't done that sooner. If DirectX 12 is as different as Microsoft claims future games may be DirectX 12 only, since adding support fir DirectX 11 would require much more work. It would be very much easier to support DirectX 12 and Mantle than multiple DirectX versions. Keep in mind Xbox One will get a quasi DirectX 12 equivalent, which will help speed up DirectX 12 uptake on Windows PC. Since DirectX 12 will be Windows 9 or later only, it will 'force' people to update to it. It may be the case older hardware will be supported with DirectX 12 using a type of emulation (it's been mentioned before regarding DirectX 11), but nevertheless require Windows 9. It wouldn't surprise me if Microsoft insists PC versions of games be DirectX 12 only because of the Windows 9 requirement. I was looking forward to Homefront 2, I wonder if anyone else will take it up? Let's hope! I'm still waiting for Half-Life 3, which you can almost guarantee will have a console version and suffer from it
Direct3D 11 is a strict superset of Direct3D 10.1 — all hardware and API features of version 10.1 are retained, and new features are added only when necessary for exposing new functionality. This helps to keep backwards compatibility with previous versions of DirectX. So supporting older DXs at least 10 wont take that much time+they can maximize their sale.Its a dirty trick to force people to buy new hardwares.HD 5000 the first ever DX 11 capable GPUs series cames in the 2009.So its a pain in the backdoor for both AMD and nvidia if by the year of 2014 people still use DX 10 cards.Just like the windows xp and now windows 7 are for microsoft.

This is what happens when you take a decent game and go in a direction that makes no sense for the 'sequel', and then do it again.

I also enjoyed Farcry3, even had a nostalgic moment after I had it finished.

Crysis1+Warhead was very good and unique imo, nothing could rival it's graphics at it's time, I still consider both a masterpiece. Here's a little fact. Crysis1 was/is responsible for a lot of today's enthusiasts. Just ask around, plenty of today's gamers will openly admit that it was/is this specific PC game title that sparked their interest in building custom PC's. Also, because of it's graphical demand noobs and enthusiasts had to be on the edge of their seats practising their OC'ing skills in order to squeeze every drop of FPS/performance out of it. ...and lastly, that famous phrase 'But Will it Run Crysis?!'' that had been spread all over the web like a virus also marks my point that Crysis1 was indeed legendary and without it the PC scene and the experience would not had been as fun nor as interesting.
