I have yet to get any FNV DLC.

It will be interesting to see what mod creators do with the engine. From machinima to creating custom games and simulations.

Crytek failed at using their own engine with crysis 2. Cryengine 3 org looks gorgeous and has raytracing features within it :D

Tachyon_Nova5385d ago

The 'raytracing features' are in Crysis 2 since DX11 update...

ddkshah5385d ago

After the dx11 patch I didn't see much of a difference but a very few chosen places had realtime reflections and those areas were very very minuscule. Plus there is ZERO destruction in game which is very disappointing :(

Orpheus5385d ago (Edited 5385d ago )

Crytek did not improve the lighting model wth the dx11 update

as far as those realtime reflections go they don use raytracing .....

Tachyon_Nova5385d ago

Lighting is heaps better with DX11, what is wrong with your eyes if you can't tell the difference?

And I know it isn't actually raytracing, it is real time reflections which are simulating ray tracing. That is why I wrote 'raytracing features' like so.

The DirectX11 tech demos look great. Really looking nice on high end PCs

Yeah crytek is tryin hard to make money thru this engine aftr failing wth crysis 2 .....now that they dont hav ne game like crysis to show their ability these screens are their last hope ....

Jpinter5385d ago

A lot of companies, including MMO developers are using the CryEngine 3. Even being marketed to PS Vita devs

rattletop5385d ago

lolwut? though crysis 2 was mediocre, crytek would have already made money thru sales. in fact they decided to release the sdk before launch. they want to compete with unreal engine 3. nothing to do with how crysis 2 fared in the market

rickyjb235385d ago

Anyone know where to doynload .cry files , that is the format of maps the editor opens , I just wanted to see if anyone has made anything yet.

My best efforts lead to a large bumpy landscape with no texture.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing15d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit16d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing15d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9215d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
