Crysis 3 debut gameplay trailer uncloaks
A mere 15 seconds of bow-shooting, robot-smashing action were shown off in the teaser trailer for Crysis 3, but now EA has returned with a more respectable "gameplay trailer."
A mere 15 seconds of bow-shooting, robot-smashing action were shown off in the teaser trailer for Crysis 3, but EA has now returned with a more respectable offering. The new trailer gives about 90 seconds of urban jungle adventuring, showing more shiny things coming in Crytek's FPS.
Sure, it's all cut up into tiny little segments, and there are distorted soundtrack hits blasting over the top so you can't really hear anything, but hey--at least it's not a live-action trailer.
Crysis 3 is coming to PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in spring 2013. Pre-ordering gets you an XP headstart and early unlocks in multiplayer, plus some other trifling gubbins.

far cry 2 was ubisoft not crytek. crytek are great but there monsters and aliens are boring as hell to fight.
-
-
They should have kept this franchise PC only...the original was amazing, the 2nd one was garbage. Sad face.

what now?!

Pretty much this

Agreed. I enjoyed fighting Koreans more than aliens in Crysis 1.

I got my fun out of Crysis 2, and I'm a huge fan of the first game, but I'm not quite sure I'm ready to pay full price for more of the same. I wish they'd bring back the open maps in a jungle setting. It just isn't as much fun when it's just a well disguised corridor. One could argue it was that in Crysis 1 as well, but at least it was wide.

cover systems can DIAF. Plus you can go invisible.

Which can still DIAF.

Psycho is in this so I might give this a shot.

Who the fuck is Nomad? Oh, you mean that guy who went back to the island... wait, what happened there? Who cares... because Alcatraz! Who the fuck is Alcratraz? I don't know. Oh, he's the guy Prophet gave the suit too. But I thought Prophet went back to the island too? Oh, but yeah... no. Alcatraz is now Prophet! Fuck Alcatraz, it's Prophet again. But Psycho is in this one, so cool. But what about Nomad? The one who fought the ice Aliens that were a cool and scary threat. No, fuck that story. Let's do Prophet fighting the insect monsters because yeah.
That's a small excerpt from Crytek's writing discussions about Crysis 2 and Crysis 3.

But the big question is, will it be Origin exclusive. Cause if it is, I'm out.

generic aliens too. i am tired of bipedal aliens, give me something more like the striders from hl2
-
It was pretty clear after playing HL1 that aliens are not as interesting. Fighting humans always seems more interesting than aliens. With aliens it is just not as satisfying to win and sometimes it is hard to predict alien behavior because you have no reference point.
-
That's always easy to say but the fact is I need this kind of crazy stuff going on to really be interested. I don't want to just be shooting dudes all the time. Sorry. Aliens, trigens, vortigaunts, whatever. I want that variety and I don't give a shit if they don't all act the same and provide exactly the same amount of fun. That's to be expected.
If they need aliens to make Jungle New York make sense then I want aliens because I want that jungle city.
FEAR kind of did it both ways, it was crazy stuff but you still only really fought humans. So I guess it's possible but one can hardly replicate that every time.-
It's not about what YOU want. It is about what the pool of potential customers want, and aliens don't seem to be it. Robots don't seem to be it. It's pretty much dudes, and zombies.
-
I'm fine with aliens. But I'm also fine with shooting dudes. Maybe we can shoot some alien dudes, even.
-
The problem is the people who want Modern Warfare, Battlefield, and their ilk over and over already have, well, Modern Warfare and Battlefield for that. That market may be the largest but it's already full. It's like how every MMO tried to be World of Warcraft for the longest time until they finally figured out if people wanted WoW, they'd play WoW.
Believe it or not there is a segment of the gamer populace that actually has an appetite for games that aren't the same brown-and-grey modern warfare bullshit that has dominated the genre for the better part of a decade now.
God forbid some people actually appreciates variety in their games. Sorry it so offends you that Crytek has catered to that.
-
And for what it's worth I doubt many Half-Life fans would share your sentiment about the series being better with only human soldier enemies.
Battlefield fans might agree but guess what? Battlefield fans buy Battlefield games. Half-Life fans buy Half-Life games.
And Crysis fans buy Crysis games. It's the way it works. Every time developers try to appeal to those who aren't fans of their game in the first place, it's a mistake.

This trailer might as well be for a Michael Bay Transformers movie. I've taken shits that are more artistic and meaningful than this.
-
-
Agreed. It's a fucking game, who gives a shit about its merit as art, and especially about how meaningful it is? Enjoy the thing, just like you'd enjoy a flashy CG movie.
People act like they're afraid to just enjoy some brainless entertainment.-
-
Which is a completely understandable position, no doubt.

-
I would like that 2:15 of my time back, please.
-
I enjoyed Crysis a bunch but don't really feel this is a must buy by any means.

Given that they managed to fit Crysis 1 on both the X360 and the PS3, I wouldn't worry all that much. I don't like the idea of consoles holding games back either, but we have games like Skyrim that play just fine despite being multiplatform.
I don't buy the "consoles ruined Crysis thing". Crysis 2 isn't as good as 1 but it's not half as bad as people make it out to be.
And again - Crysis 1 is on consoles. Does that fact retroactively ruin that game too? Not for me.
-
-
Oh look, reused main enemies in a sequel. Definitely buying.
-
looks like a sequel to crysis 2 unfortunately *yawn*
-
might feel more like the first one though. http://www.abload.de/img/c3x8kjv.jpg

I was expecting Paulie Shore to pop up and yell "Viva los biodome."
-
-
pretty much... i believe selling out to the causal consoles netted them less sales from crysis 2 on all platforms then crysis 1 made just on pc. Never mind the cost of multiplatform development.
-
-
This looks pretty good to me, don't know what people are smoking in this thread??
-
It's just an in-thing to hate on Crytek now. They "betrayed" PC gamers and shattered their fragile little Aspertard egos by making games for consoles, and their second game wasn't exactly the same as their first one. Oh noes. Plus they said something once that acknowledged that piracy is a thing that exists. Another big no-no for PC gamers.
Also no one like shooting aliens or monsters! We just want brown and grey Modern Warfare/Battlefield shoved up our asses till it leaks out our nose!-
-
aww I hurt your feelings?
-
Look if you don't like a certain company's games, don't buy them. It's a simple as that. No one's forcing you.
Some of us just get tired of all the whining.-
-
Point taken. It's certainly taking up more of my recent posting than it has any right to.
I think I'll stay away from this topic for a while.

lol, fair enough. Yeah, I've said my peace so I'm done with the topic for a while.
I admit sometimes I get a little carried away. :/-
-
Not quite, but as most disappointing sequel it ranks up there.
