Here is a game that is praised for having the best graphics in the history of gaming, and yet the screen shot for the plot is of a black void with a glowing green thing in the middle. What happened to the lucious forests, with the dust gently settling on the ground? What happened to the cystal clear waters with the light bouncing of the coral reefs? -- Simpsons fan 66 04:18, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
The graphics aren't as good as they were hyped to be; there were complaints that the pre-release screen shots had much, much better graphics that the final game. I have to agree.

You agree because you're ignorant. The game actually looks better than any of the promotion screenshots, if you crank up the settings (choosing very high is not enough - with manual config editing you can make the game look lightyears better). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.72.233.152 ( talk) 20:47, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
The system requirements section lists the minimum requirements as 2.8GHz for XP or 3.2GHz for Vista. But the recommended sys reqs show 2.2GHz. Is there a reason the recommended is lower than the minimum? Or is this an error?
recommended is a 2.2ghz DUAL core processor, min is for SINGLE core processors.
As of this posting, Crysis is completely overrun with hackers in the online multiplayer. The development team acknowledged it in their announcement of adding punkbuster, and the chat channels are full of players complaining about the issue. I think that justifies being added to the multiplayer section of the article, unless anyone has any objections....? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.171.61.223 ( talk) 06:43, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Should we list the Xbox 360 Controller & the Xbox 360 Controller for Windows even though there is absolutely nothing different about them? I wouldn't want someone to read this and think they have to get the one sold specifically for Windows and pay more than they should have to. If they have Vista it will recognize the controller automatically but if they have XP or lower they would need to download drivers for free from Microsoft's website. -- The Virginian ( talk) 12:36, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
My freind (he may be lying) says that Crysis could be comming Xbox 360, I mean if tiberium is coming to Xbox 360 and its based on the CryENGING2 than, technically crysis could come to Xbox 360, but untill its confirmed ignore my comment. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gears, Gears, Gears ( talk • contribs) 02:51, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
Crysis is not coming on Xbox 360. The rumour is for ps3 because Crytek games have started employment of ps3 programmers. Although it could be any other game but rumour is that it would be Crysis.
Crysis IS NOT coming for the Xbox360, however it is most likely in development for the PS3. I wrote about it, and guess what - deleted! —Preceding unsigned comment added by SchumiChamp ( talk • contribs) 19:38, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
Crytek is not working on Crysis or anything Cry Engine 2 for PS3 or Xbox 360. They are working on Cry Engine 3 - that's THREE - for the upcoming consoles. Upcoming, as in PS4 and the next Xbox, if there will be one. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.72.233.152 ( talk) 20:39, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
It has been confirmed some time ago, Crysis 2 will be released for PC, Xbox 360 and the PS3 [1]. It will be running on the Cryengine 3 as that engine has been optimized for console playability. Still no word with Crysis running on the next-gen set of consoles (if there is a next-gen) but I guess the CE3 would more than handle it.

Am I the only one who thinks that it is unlikely he dies? There's something strange about him after the aliens drag him off initially, and the fact that he grabs a gun and flies straight back to the island (without you seeing his fate) suggests he's gone off to do some sort of personal mission.
In addition, he seems too.. mystical.. in the aircraft carrier to just go and get himself killed by a nuke. His codename Prophet implies he knows what to do, although that is of course speculation.
However, to remain encyclopedic I don't think we can state that he's probably killed, all we know is that we don't know what happens to him. ( 217.43.255.179 ( talk) 19:02, 21 February 2008 (UTC))
Anyone else install Crysis only to find that the ONLY way to launch the game is to insert the DVD-ROM, activate autoplay, and then click on 'Play' on the launcher window?

He might -mean- 'downgrade', but that doesn't mean he's using it right. In English, 'downgrade' means 'to make worse'; he must be mixing it up with 'upgrade'. ;) 208.53.123.204 ( talk) 08:02, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, it is literally impossible to "downgrade" from Vista to XP. It's upgrade. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.72.253.164 ( talk) 20:32, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
I suggest adding a reference to the review of crysis by Ben Croshaw, views Crysis as a pretty but "somewhat above average" fps shooter (see the review at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_Punctuation#Zero_Punctuation. It's another example to give a more balanced "reception" section, because the other reviews (Gamespot, PC Gamer) are so skewed to the maximum score. Zero Punctuation praises the graphics and nano suit, but critisises the vehicles controlling, the overall lineairity of the game, the game has too many controls and that you need a high end pc. Markus. 130.89.165.44 ( talk) 09:22, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
That said, parts read like a Microsoft marketing promotion.
-- UnicornTapestry ( talk) 17:45, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
Zero Punctuation is stupid. He's way too critical, it gets annoying after the second review IMO. He isnt even that funny, and it seems he hates so many video games so much, why does he even have a review segment? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 168.169.28.104 ( talk) 18:31, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
Zero Punctuation isn't a serious reviewer. He is just bashing on popular games because they are just that - popular. It's quite childish, and hardly something to be taken seriously. Also, the hardware requirements are COMPLETELY irrelevant to the game itself. Crysis is software, and hardware cannot change how "good" or "bad" it is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.72.253.164 ( talk) 20:35, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
There has been some controversy around this game. Some say that the developers withheld certain features from the game in DirectX 9 that are supposedly only possible with DirectX 10. This was reported here: http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,2222414,00.asp
There is also considerable talk of hackers within the multiplayer gaming community, as mentioned previously. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Somnolence ( talk • contribs) 00:15, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
It's also worth noting that it seems more than a few users on blogs and net reviews seem to be commenting that the game seems "short." (I'm reading a lot of people citing 6-10 hour gameplay. I'm a pretty thorough completist-style gamer, but I too thought that the game seemed brief. 70.109.55.138 ( talk) 00:12, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
Crysis supports English, Turkish and German languages. -- 144.122.250.137 ( talk) 11:23, 16 March 2008 (UTC) log -- Ilhanli ( talk) 11:24, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
As far as i know the company belongs to three turkish brothers.. so it can not be said its a German Company.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.253.4.120 ( talk) 00:56, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
ATI was founded by three Cantonese-speaking Chinese engineers (none of them was born in Canada), does that make ATI a "Chinese" company? No. And Turkish names don't sound strange, they just sound Turkish.
Why do you keep erasing the section? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.206.139.28 ( talk) 13:00, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
There should be some mention about these, i myself can play the game only when my DVD drive decides that today it's gonna work. This is because of the Securom protection, if you do a search you'll find lots of people with similar problems where the DVD drive can't recognize the disc It is important to point out these things so game publishers will stop using Securom and other systems like it Jaagi ( talk) 17:02, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
Someone had set the minimum RAM for Crysis on Vista to 8GB. It is infact 1.5GB for Vista. Also you only need 12GB on HDD space, not the 120GB someone had edited it to be. I have made these changes, just thought I'd say so. Spartan123209 ( talk) 17:56, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
Someone messed with it again and forgot to mention the Vista Requirements. I will fix it. Spartan123209 ( talk) 20:29, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
Who wrote this article? A fifth grader? It is atrocious, and needs a major rewrite. And this is not even considering the abnormal length of the plot summary. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.194.118.10 ( talk) 10:35, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
The first screenshot of Crysis, [ [2]], is a non-free 800x600 sized image. According to Wikipedia's strict copyright policy shouldn't it, you know, be resized to 300 pixels wide so you practically need a magnifying glass to see it? Since there's been no image left unturned in that regard you better do it, fast. Like everyone else. You're falling behind. You don't want to be the laughing stock because you left this photo ridiculously high resolution do you? Cody-7 ( talk) 05:27, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
You do not buy weapons in Crysis as it says several times in the article. Who wrote this thing?!?!?! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.161.59.58 ( talk) 23:46, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
Should there been an article describing the "high piracy rate" I remember the makers saying it was 20 pirated copies to 1 bought copy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.218.191.65 ( talk) 09:41, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
What the makers say is of no importance. They have no way of knowing the ratio of illegitimate players to real customers. It is pure speculation. If you insist on mentionning it, you can add something like "Crysis producers (?) have speculated that the ratio of pirated to bought copies of the game is 20:1." if you have a source for that. But I think it would not add value to the article in any way.

There's been a lot of info released on Crysis 2 already. We're not sure as to the story, but the original Crysis page needs to be updated on release info and it won't fit into the "sequels" category. Looks like it's time to start a new page for Crysis 2. Devs have hinted at a 2010 release date and that's coming up pretty soon.
Arafitos ( talk) 23:06, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
While the plot is still probably unnecessarily long, are any of the sections that list the separate factions in the game even remotely necessary? They seem to me just to restate what is in the plot section. I'm a little leery of simply going ahead and deleting it all. Maybe a Setting section could be added before the plot that briefly summarizes the different factions? It could probably also siphon a bit off of the plot section so it isn't so large. N Segick ( talk) 22:34, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
I'd suggest a 'followed by' (crysis 2) entry in the main description bar on the right for ease of use. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.89.165.44 ( talk) 11:34, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
Even if the ESRB and the equivalent Korean ratings board have rated the original Crysis for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, as Crysis isn't yet available on these consoles, isn't it a bit premature to include these consoles in the platforms field of the infobox? Best Regards. DynamoDegsy ( talk) 14:01, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
Hi, I was just wondering why this page isn't a disambiguation page. I don't think that the first game of the series is more important than the series as a whole, in this case that is. And if I had to choose which one would be more important, I would go for the series. I think this is a strange move. What do you guys think of this?
With kind regards, Kippenvlees1 ( talk) 18:58, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
Is the team actually a part of Delta Force?
Reason I ask is because I just edited Supersoldier to change the text there. I admit I don't recall when or where, but at some point in the game Psycho is said to have originated from the SAS, and yet he is serving in the same group as Nomad - that would imply that the group recruits from all walks of life, and that Nomad came from Delta Force, but is not now serving with them Chaheel Riens ( talk) 13:06, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Zero Punctuation is stupid. He's way too critical, it gets annoying after the second review IMO. He isnt even that funny, and it seems he hates so many video games so much, why does he even have a review segment? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 168.169.28.104 ( talk) 18:31, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
Zero Punctuation isn't a serious reviewer. He is just bashing on popular games because they are just that - popular. It's quite childish, and hardly something to be taken seriously. Also, the hardware requirements are COMPLETELY irrelevant to the game itself. Crysis is software, and hardware cannot change how "good" or "bad" it is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.72.253.164 ( talk) 20:35, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
There has been some controversy around this game. Some say that the developers withheld certain features from the game in DirectX 9 that are supposedly only possible with DirectX 10. This was reported here: http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,2222414,00.asp
There is also considerable talk of hackers within the multiplayer gaming community, as mentioned previously. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Somnolence ( talk • contribs) 00:15, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
It's also worth noting that it seems more than a few users on blogs and net reviews seem to be commenting that the game seems "short." (I'm reading a lot of people citing 6-10 hour gameplay. I'm a pretty thorough completist-style gamer, but I too thought that the game seemed brief. 70.109.55.138 ( talk) 00:12, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

As far as i know the company belongs to three turkish brothers.. so it can not be said its a German Company.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.253.4.120 ( talk) 00:56, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
ATI was founded by three Cantonese-speaking Chinese engineers (none of them was born in Canada), does that make ATI a "Chinese" company? No. And Turkish names don't sound strange, they just sound Turkish.
Why do you keep erasing the section? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.206.139.28 ( talk) 13:00, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
There should be some mention about these, i myself can play the game only when my DVD drive decides that today it's gonna work. This is because of the Securom protection, if you do a search you'll find lots of people with similar problems where the DVD drive can't recognize the disc It is important to point out these things so game publishers will stop using Securom and other systems like it Jaagi ( talk) 17:02, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
Someone had set the minimum RAM for Crysis on Vista to 8GB. It is infact 1.5GB for Vista. Also you only need 12GB on HDD space, not the 120GB someone had edited it to be. I have made these changes, just thought I'd say so. Spartan123209 ( talk) 17:56, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
Someone messed with it again and forgot to mention the Vista Requirements. I will fix it. Spartan123209 ( talk) 20:29, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
Who wrote this article? A fifth grader? It is atrocious, and needs a major rewrite. And this is not even considering the abnormal length of the plot summary. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.194.118.10 ( talk) 10:35, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
The first screenshot of Crysis, [ [2]], is a non-free 800x600 sized image. According to Wikipedia's strict copyright policy shouldn't it, you know, be resized to 300 pixels wide so you practically need a magnifying glass to see it? Since there's been no image left unturned in that regard you better do it, fast. Like everyone else. You're falling behind. You don't want to be the laughing stock because you left this photo ridiculously high resolution do you? Cody-7 ( talk) 05:27, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
You do not buy weapons in Crysis as it says several times in the article. Who wrote this thing?!?!?! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.161.59.58 ( talk) 23:46, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
Should there been an article describing the "high piracy rate" I remember the makers saying it was 20 pirated copies to 1 bought copy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.218.191.65 ( talk) 09:41, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
What the makers say is of no importance. They have no way of knowing the ratio of illegitimate players to real customers. It is pure speculation. If you insist on mentionning it, you can add something like "Crysis producers (?) have speculated that the ratio of pirated to bought copies of the game is 20:1." if you have a source for that. But I think it would not add value to the article in any way.

There's been a lot of info released on Crysis 2 already. We're not sure as to the story, but the original Crysis page needs to be updated on release info and it won't fit into the "sequels" category. Looks like it's time to start a new page for Crysis 2. Devs have hinted at a 2010 release date and that's coming up pretty soon.

While the plot is still probably unnecessarily long, are any of the sections that list the separate factions in the game even remotely necessary? They seem to me just to restate what is in the plot section. I'm a little leery of simply going ahead and deleting it all. Maybe a Setting section could be added before the plot that briefly summarizes the different factions? It could probably also siphon a bit off of the plot section so it isn't so large.

I'd suggest a 'followed by' (crysis 2) entry in the main description bar on the right for ease of use. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.89.165.44 ( talk) 11:34, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
Even if the ESRB and the equivalent Korean ratings board have rated the original Crysis for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, as Crysis isn't yet available on these consoles, isn't it a bit premature to include these consoles in the platforms field of the infobox?

Hi, I was just wondering why this page isn't a disambiguation page. I don't think that the first game of the series is more important than the series as a whole, in this case that is. And if I had to choose which one would be more important, I would go for the series. I think this is a strange move. What do you guys think of this?

Is the team actually a part of Delta Force?
Reason I ask is because I just edited Supersoldier to change the text there. I admit I don't recall when or where, but at some point in the game Psycho is said to have originated from the SAS, and yet he is serving in the same group as Nomad - that would imply that the group recruits from all walks of life, and that Nomad came from Delta Force, but is not now serving with them Chaheel Riens ( talk) 13:06, 28 June 2013 (UTC)
