Forums - Gaming Discussion - The First in-game shots of Crysis 2 are no where near KZ2

Mummelmann on 10 April 2010

If that is seriously an ingame screenshot from the main build, it is truly sad. There are several other games that look just as good if that's the case.
Crytek are full of hot air anyway so I won't be surprised.
The textures in Crysis were actually quite poor when you got close (trees, rocks, shrubbery, walls, vehicles etc) and this looks to have the same type of mesh, looks horrible up close.
The weapon detail is nice though and it is impossible to speak of the character models with the enemies that far off in the distance so it might not be all bad.

Again; if those are true ingame shots, its sad indeed.

Meh, I'm more eager to see how much the PC version has been improved over Crysis/Warhead. I'd at least hope the gameplay and story is better though.

Even if you are just looking at multiplatform open world games, I think Red Dead Redemption looks far better

It is very disappointing, but there is plenty of time until release

Wow! That was a real let down, but a bit expected actually. The PC version will look awesome no doubt, but judgeing from those pics the console version is a big dissapointment, not even close to the best PS3 exclusives.

lol never in hell it's looking that bad.

Excluding PS3 exclusives should have been said.

Nope including PS3 exclusives. Go read the article's headline.

no,,,there are few surfaces that have flat textures but not most of them,,,,ground texture is high res 3D in KZ2 but In MW2 is a flat texture

 

and here is MW2: see how flat the surface of ground texture is

Crytek is working that way, that when they build their games, they are ment for PCs in couple of years, basicaly there isn't a piece of hardware able to run their games at 100% details. They have never bothered with that, since upgrading PCs is just a matter of time. This might very well be a problem when they have to deal with set hw requirements, might be hard to optimalize.

But I seriously doubt those screenshots represent actual game, it looks worse than Xbox launch titles.
