Johnz876543210 Oh yeah, it's the other best game in the world :D. It's a real masterpiece, really, no words can describe how good how The Last Of Us is and how it makes me feel...
“But when you’ve sacrificed everything you’ve had to become a perfect, cold, hard, logical machine.... and that machine fails....... what happens then?.....” best line ever
@@schismpeople8336 yea dude, there’s a nanosuit log in 3 giving an update on the personality file from Alcatraz. It’s too damaged to bring back out and the final part of the note is “remember me” In essence, prophet from 3, is a weapon made of alien dna and weave nano muscles, wrapped around the stolen corpse of a marine, dreaming that it was a man named Laurence Barnes. One of the many reasons I love this series.
@@Legion849 To me Crysis is good as Halo! Despite the Crysis series is shorter than the Halo series, they have one thing in common - the main character has a special relationship with the suit!
Seeing how well done this ending is made me realize that Crysis was actually a really decent trilogy that ended on a satisfying note. I mean, the first game was despite its issues ahead of its time, the second game took a different approach but it still worked out and the third game managed to get back on track. I mean, we had a bossfight that was not a QTE in a Shooter series from the late 2000s/early 2010s. I really respect this series.
joe kickass They just streamlined a gameplay mechanic. Some mechanics in games are better off with a bit of streamlining, and the nanosuit of C1 was one of them. Combining armor and strength into one, mapping speed to sprint and having stealth, well, be stealth, is the perfect solution in my opinion. It trims off all the fat and leaves a fast, responsive, intuitive control scheme.
Ye it was cool the way the suit really did become "the greatest tactical combat machine the world has ever known" once it had all those upgrades combined. I just missed the voice tbh lol. I'd love a PS4 Crysis game though.
Reading the books made this ending so much better especially after you find out what happens to Alcatraz. Prophet visits Alcatraz mother and she instantly recognizes him as not his son even tho he’s invisible that he’s not his and then at the end when they have a conversation in their mind where Alcatraz finds out that he could’ve taken his body back at any time if he really wanted it. Decides his part in the war is over snd his final line is “they called me Alcatraz. Remember me.” Prophet then wakes up in front of Alcatraz dads grave.
@@sayanth_t_myep. The book I summarized is my favorite bc it gives closure for Alcatraz and it's a sad book. He even visits his sister and saves her from abuse but she doesn't know it bc he was invisible. His final line is the saddest tho
Thank you so much for clarifying this and making it so I don’t have to read the book. I’m happy to know that Alcatraz had control of the situation if he needed it.
The suit can become anything it wants too, says that lady. So when Prophet fell from space, the outer layer of the suit was destroyed(watch it burn up). Upon impact and contact with the water on the surface, the suit began to rebuild itself. The suit has a relationship with one person, Barnes, so it naturally reforms it's outer layers to look like him. So even though the suit looks like him, get this, Alcatraz is still inside there. Alcatraz is just a host. Practically dead. The suit needs real muscles, real tissue, a real human body to work properly. That's all Alcatraz is. A body. His mind is gone and has been replaced with the suits mind- I mean Barnes' mind. So basically, Alcatraz is dead inside of a suit that thinks its Prophet so much so that it literally took his physical form and uses his mind to make decisions. The real Laurence Barnes is dead in New York. Only a replica remains. A super human replica, of course.
+DIABLO258 Really I thought the suit combined with the alcatraz's body and changed his appearance to that of james barnes, a true hybrid of human and nanite.
Although I cannot guarantee that I am right and you are wrong, I firmly think that the Barnes we see is the suit. Alcatraz died, and the suit thinks its Barnes.
The first minute is where you’ll find the greatest meaning of Crysis. Since the beginning of the monologue, Prophet insist on defining himself as a machine, the result of the sacrifices of a man who chose to ascend in order to protect Earth, losing his humanity in the process. However, when everything seems over, when the chips are down, a part of his memory shakes him, inspires him and wakes him up. Those voices are not calling the machine, never once is “Prophet” called. The voices all speak to Laurence Barnes. And when Earth seems doomed, they ask him to “Hold on”. When he thinks that the “machine has failed”, then you need to go beyond, because “It was never just about the suit”. In fact, as he realizes later on, it wasn’t the machine who saved the world all those times. It wasn’t the technology that moved the suit. It was “something that the Cephs will never have or understand”. It was the strong and powerful heart of a human being. And that’s our greatest strength. Beautiful.
The ending really speaks to me. Laurence Barnes lost everything. He lost a lot of important years, his mental state, his mates, Raptor Team, the opportunity to experience good things in life, like love, family, adventure, his body, and his life. He sacrificed everything to protect the people of the world. And what did he get in the end? An endless, meaningless life at the coast of Ling Shan. I'm sorry to say, but the world didn't do him justice. The world sucks. He deserved so much better.
Although raptor team mostly dead, he still has Psycho and the ingame files say Nomad is still alive being hunted down. But also all of Eagle Team died from Crysis Warhead with Psycho, RIP to eagle team.
@@Nihghtbot The in-game file says "we found Nomad". Never does it mention whether he's alive or dead. Odds are that they recovered his dead body, and what matters is the nanosuit on that body, since Rasch deleted all Nanosuit data before leaving CELL, and that's why CELL was looking for nanosuits and skinning them off of soldiers in the first place.
Always loved how much more character-driven Crysis 3's story was Even the music reflects this. Compared to the superhero-like theme of C2, the music in C3 has a noticeably sadder tone
So if i understand correctly, the skin of Prophet its the suit, the bones and muscles are from Alcatraz and Prophet's memories are from the files which the suit saved, now thats an awesome plot.
Except when you realise Alcatraz has died between Crysis 2 and 3 and became a carcass for the suit to carry over, essentially becoming a Ceph and just using Prophet's memory thinking that its actually Prophet which is quite dark and twisted in itself and the irony is it is a Ceph who has destroyed the Ceph invasion and saved the world.
Now, Laurence Barnes is a superhuman. Undefeatable by any normal human. Of super strength. One who can swim with the water forever and still breathe on the surface, without looking like a monstrous machine. His humanity restored. His skills retained and ever more increasing.
Good luck finding real food on the coast of Ling Shan. He probably made some Chipotle out of his butt cheeks. It's new food, it's called "nanoshit". :P
It was about a man who was just following orders. A man who lost his comrades, his humanity, his life and never got to see the world like a normal human.
One of my favorite franchises, really restores my faith in FPSs and prophet is a kick ass character. This was a criminally underrated game and just feel sorry for Crytek and their company issues, hope they manage to sort it out.
Honestly, video game movies have been getting a lot better recently. I think with the right studio that appreciates and wants to preserve the Crysis theme, it can be made into a great movie.
The profundity of this whole cinematic is that for all that Lawrence Barnes sacrificed, his name, his life, everything - the nanites in the suit seemed to recognize this, and his reward, his "upgrade" if you like, was the restoration of his humanity. Synthesis. Apotheosis. Crysis.
First week of boot camp... they taught us a lesson, a good soldiers knows there is only one thing he can rely on when the chips are down.... not his cutting edge intel.. not his... state of the art equipment, not his top of the line weapon, just himself, took me a long time to remember that..... For now the war is over, i made mistakes along the way but... after all... iam only human, my name is Laurence Barnes ... they called me... Prophet. REMEMBER ME!.
My whole body was trembling all-throughout that dialogue and what killed me was when Mr Barnes said, Remember me, because we all would one day and it sadly came true, because no other game has been made since then and guess what? WE ALL Forgot about him!
Only the third one. The fact that Alcatraz was in prophets suit means that it shouldn't be Lawrence Barnes inside the suit, because he shot himself in the head on the opening of crysis 2 after Alcatraz is wearing his nanosuit. So how did Alcatraz transform into Lawrence Barnes?
The memories of Lawrence took over Alcatraz's conscience. So in Crysis 3, the transformation was complete. And man, that single-player was great but there are many problems: (1 It's hard to run. Most gamers use consoles (I wouldn't though) and not many people like to build their own computer. On top of that, to ruin this maxed out at 1080p requires quite the budget (although a GPU under $200 would do fine at high) (2 The story is not that long. Once you finish it (in a few hours), that's it. (3 Multiplayer isn't spectacular, unlike Halo where it's HUGE.
i didnt like how the series story went at all. Each game on it's own tells a great story, minus a chunk of Crysis 2, but all together doesnt flow well or make sense. i liked the war of the worlds feel that was Crysis, which you fougt ht ALONGSIDE the military and it was aliens through most of the game. You deal with aliens very little in Crysis 2 and basically has 1-2 bosses, though 3 half-assed attempts at making decent boss fights. 3 once again ignored the buildup of what was to be a major global war between ceph and humanity, but instead stayed in New York and once again got stuck hunting down more easy C.E.L.L. human prey.
@@gameid4646 imagine wearing a nano suit as an Evolved... then later have it bond with you. You're basically a bio-nano killing machine that can adapt to anything instantly.
Hold X to enter game. its stuff like that, just ruins all immersion into the scene thats playing out. Who thought it was a good idea to put that there. really lol ?:
Yeah, honestly I would have put a short "Press X any time during Cut Scenes to Skip" option in the beginning, or do what other games do: No messages, but when you hit Esc/Pause, a menu pops up that gives you the option to continue or skip.
Still remember the first time i saw this ending with the most memorable scene from crysis 1, had shivers all over me dammmn, fucking perfect end for a game with a fucked up messy plot like this, remember me ( and nomad )
These guys knew what they were doing. “Remember me” all these years later, Crysis 4 is in the making. Expect the teaser trailer to have prophets “remember me” in there 😉
I feel, like there was no better way to end original Crysis trilogy. The best was to end it how it begun. With rough landing on lingsham islands. Maybe even, if Crysis 3 wasn't as good as 2007 or 2, it had a perfect ending. And yes. Alcatraz' body is still in the nanosuit.
Wrong Alcatraz was already dead by the time Prophet found him. The suit was the only thing keeping him alive at the end of Crysis 2 he dies it's complicated stuff.
@mahirshahriar1586 according to the novelization, Crysis Legion, Alcatraz is still 'there',but his and Prophet's memories have merged, and either personality can be at the fore in charge. Alcatraz remained in charge for debrief during the book's main plot,, but eventually let Prophet run the body mostly full time by the time he gets recaptured by CELL in the time following his release from the CIA facility that debriefed him. (And after they shut down at least two other Ceph sites on Earth.)
@@SCComegaAlcatraz died while Lawrence was given a second chance on living in a dead man body and becoming the suit some players seem to think the suit thinks it's prophet but their wrong prophet is the suit his mind became one with the suit hence why he says he sacrificed his humanity to ascend in order to save the world but in the end he was still thankfully human till the end and realizes that solider is just himself.
To clear it up for everyone, bluntly, Alcatraz in Crysis 3 really is by all means dead, as Prophet's persona has control over the suit and by extension, the body it covers. Also a note for those who just joined the series, this scene loops back to the original Crysis during "First Light" with Nomad. It's mainly fan service here.
When they came to me with DirectX 10, I sacrificed my wallet, my monetary income, to run Crysis. When my own graphics card set me back, I sacrificed that too. Replaced it, to run Crysis 2. 60 frames per second costs. Every time, you pay a little more. I saw a glimpse of Crysis 3 and there was nothing left of me to stop it. When the greatest gaming machine fails... what do we do then? What do I do?!
I think it kinda makes sense that Alcatraz is gone, the series theme clearly is sacrifice and he was just a grunt to begin with. He did what he had to do, severely injured, he had countless near death moments and actually died two times in the suit, only to be saved twice by it. There's only so much damage on can endure before there's consequences.
WTF i still don't get if Nomad is really dead or not... the picture shows 6 members of Prophet team, the dog tags are 3 and counting in even Prophet and Psycho, we arrive to 5, so there's one missing... the hidden dog tag shows the letters "CAKE", meaning that it belongs to Cupcake not to Nomad... but it's also true that in the Crysis comic, nomad sacrifice himself in order to save Prophet and Psycho... also during the game there's the UKNOWN log file that shows that Nomad is still alive. Is he dead or not? What do you think about it guys?
When you collect all the intel in Crysis 3 you can see that Nomad is still alive, he's being chased by a Nano-operator called "Lockhart". Whether this is the Lockhart (from the second game, miraculously revived, or his Nephew mentioned in Crysis 2, who isn't really dead after all), is left unclear.
Maybe, one day before I die, as I wake up on my last day, I'd want to imagine this song playing in my head. After decades of living, going through pain and happiness, meeting my goals and people, it's a perfect music to think about.
Same dude. This game links with me in a way no other game can. I actually sorta feel like O have Nanosuit symbiosis in a way. As when I stay away from this game for too long it sorta feels like the suit is calling out to me. Drawing me back in. Pretty interesting even if it is all in my headm
Crysis 4 is officially announced and will be released in the coming year or two 2024 or 2025. The minimum requires are unspecified but they did say that a 3060 should be able to run it comfortably on medium graphics.
2:40 That thing is absolutely massive and it just keeps coming out with no end. The design is fascinating, the interior mechanism spinning and flashing gets faster over time, like it's charging, is the entire vessel one massive weapon? Why mechanical tentacles hundreds of miles long? Wasn't the Ceph's original purpose is to terraform Earth? I NEED ALL THE LORE!
The amazing part of this story was that while Laurence Barnes as we know him - the man - is most certainly dead, the Nanosuit, a digital lifeform, stored his personality within itself and adopted his identity after bonding to Alcatraz in Crysis 2. The person you play as is effectively a braindead man wearing a suit that identifies itself as its last owner. At the very end, it adopts his identity completely because it believes itself to be Laurence Barnes, and alters its nanites to replicate the memories it has of his appearance in life. So while you're playing as a character named Prophet, whose actual name is Laurence Barnes, it's effectively a synthetic lifeform which has completely taken his place without realising. And also what of Alcatraz? The books did touch on this topic, but he effectively gave away control of his own body to the suit named Laurence Barnes. Truly an amazing piece of fiction. After seeing the Crysis 4 teaser, I can't wait to melt my GPU in ten years! I can only hope the story is as thought-provoking as the original trilogy. While I hope it is a continuation of this story, a new original plotline would be nice.
+Killer-Toni Maybe but crytek left EA and EA owns rights for crysis series so no more "real" crysis games are coming :( EA might continue crysis series but without crytek it would be shit. maybe DICE could do something nice and fresh about it but really. Leave it like this it's better for all of us :)
For the love of god I hope they end the series with this. Crysis is such a respectable series and is phenomenal in all aspects. HD remake the series for next ten I don't care but please don't make anymore sequels the series is perfect as it is.
+Killer-Toni yea but story won't be around prophet they said that they are done with prophet story maybe he makes a cameo in game but he won't be focus anymore
One of the best and most beautiful endings to a game ever! Although it mind be confusing as to what actually happened with the Nanosuit/Prophet it was an epic ending nonetheless.Also,I'm not sure it will ever be a direct sequel to Crysis 3,they wrap things up quite nicely,the universe of Crysis has a lot of potential so I'm confident enough we will see the Ceph again.
In that picture, all were Raptor team. Sean ONiel, Jester, Prophet, Psycho, Aztecs and Nomad. Still wondering what happening to Sean Oniel despite being removed from Raptor team before they being outfits with Nanosuit. ONiel supposed to appreciate that he wasn't part of the human experiment that Cell took Raptor team with.
I wish I never saw this ending but it makes me want to play the crisis trilogy so bad even more and after learning a bit of prophet story this ending is very sad and emotional and the best most beautiful ending I've ever seen😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
A suit that changes the rules. Had Hargreave inherited the suit, he would not have made the hard choices in the end, too paranoid and/or power hungry Theoretically, if the suit can change it's integrity to take on any form, then it likely has the power to influence time. By studying the chemistry of the human genome, it would have opted into a parity checks and balances system on the same level of Superman reversing the rotation of the Earth! It would have accessed Hargreave's DNA and probably would have missed the valor gene What intrigues me the most about this conceptually, is that that through Barnes' mind, it opted to retain the human form. You would think that the nanites would respond to it's native origin and return to the Ceph for decommission. It rejected its masters and found their mechanism for survival lacking also The human mind is exceptionally strong willed
*sheds tear of joy* im so glad i grew up in a generation with the og 3 gears of war and crysis series instead of fortnite and just everything that resembles it
@@Legion849 ive honestly never played prince of persia wasnt into that kinda game all platform based i was more into platformers that was based around a lotta action such as assassins creed
i feel like prophet came to a realization in space "when you sacrifice everything you have to become a cold, hard, logical machine....and that machine fails...what happens then?" "when prophet fails....whats left?" prophet fails...so lawrens barnes steps up he sacrificed barnes to become prohpet, but prophet fails, so now barnes steps in, the human the machine failed, the human will not "you have somthing prophet, somthing the ceph will never have or understand" i belive that somthing is the human spirit, human will
A soldier cant rely on His state of the arc equipment Next generation weapons Cutting edge knowledge Only his music player for doom eternal It took me a while to realize that But the war is over now "Proceeds to throw away music player"
Basically Prophet aka Barnes stored his mind in the suit that was given to Alcatraz the protagonist of Crysis 2. Barnes original body died and this allow his mind aka spirit to take over Alcatraz body overtime.
*As a people, as a world, we've been given a second chance. Let's never forget what we've learned, for the cost of that knowledge has been very high indeed*

"it was never about the suit! "
It was about a man who was just following orders. A man who lost his comrades, his humanity, his life and never got to see the world like a normal human.
One of my favorite franchises, really restores my faith in FPSs and prophet is a kick ass character. This was a criminally underrated game and just feel sorry for Crytek and their company issues, hope they manage to sort it out.
"I made mistakes along the way. But after all I'm only human"
this is the moral of the entire story.
My graphics card will definitely "remember you"
Underrated
They should make a movie
Honestly, video game movies have been getting a lot better recently. I think with the right studio that appreciates and wants to preserve the Crysis theme, it can be made into a great movie.
i agree :D
that would be awesome !!
Alberto Negrete don't make any movies out of them, videogame movies are terrible. They can never be as good as the actual games
That would be awesome. In fact they should make a trilogy!
I think it would be more popular than the game
The profundity of this whole cinematic is that for all that Lawrence Barnes sacrificed, his name, his life, everything - the nanites in the suit seemed to recognize this, and his reward, his "upgrade" if you like, was the restoration of his humanity. Synthesis. Apotheosis. Crysis.
In my honest opinion this was undoubtedly one of the finest endings in a video game to a game that to my surprise exceeded my expectations!
First week of boot camp... they taught us a lesson, a good soldiers knows there is only one thing he can rely on when the chips are down.... not his cutting edge intel.. not his... state of the art equipment, not his top of the line weapon, just himself, took me a long time to remember that..... For now the war is over, i made mistakes along the way but... after all... iam only human, my name is Laurence Barnes ... they called me... Prophet.
REMEMBER ME!.
Best ending ever
"They called me Alcatraz, remember me" **Disappears forever**
My whole body was trembling all-throughout that dialogue and what killed me was when Mr Barnes said, Remember me, because we all would one day and it sadly came true, because no other game has been made since then and guess what? WE ALL Forgot about him!
It was such a perfect, good, and happy ending for the series
Please let Crysis 4 continue the story. WE DO NOT WANT A REBOOT !!!
there is nothing to continue. It's over. and personally, I think that this is the perfect end to it.

Only the third one. The fact that Alcatraz was in prophets suit means that it shouldn't be Lawrence Barnes inside the suit, because he shot himself in the head on the opening of crysis 2 after Alcatraz is wearing his nanosuit. So how did Alcatraz transform into Lawrence Barnes?
Crysis 3 was too short. Other than that, good game compared to Battle Field and Cod fish.
The memories of Lawrence took over Alcatraz's conscience. So in Crysis 3, the transformation was complete. And man, that single-player was great but there are many problems:
(1 It's hard to run. Most gamers use consoles (I wouldn't though) and not many people like to build their own computer. On top of that, to ruin this maxed out at 1080p requires quite the budget (although a GPU under $200 would do fine at high)
(2 The story is not that long. Once you finish it (in a few hours), that's it.
(3 Multiplayer isn't spectacular, unlike Halo where it's HUGE.
i didnt like how the series story went at all. Each game on it's own tells a great story, minus a chunk of Crysis 2, but all together doesnt flow well or make sense. i liked the war of the worlds feel that was Crysis, which you fougt
ht ALONGSIDE the military and it was aliens through most of the game. You deal with aliens very little in Crysis 2 and basically has 1-2 bosses, though 3 half-assed attempts at making decent boss fights. 3 once again ignored the buildup of what was to be a major global war between ceph and humanity, but instead stayed in New York and once again got stuck hunting down more easy C.E.L.L. human prey.
Jeremy K Crysis 2 dealt very little with aliens? At least half or more of it was dealing with aliens
That speech was........just wow............with the music........
the ending was epic !! .... right where the story started !!
i will never forget this game......
Underrated Saga. R.I.P Crysis
As much as I miss the Crysis series.... I don't want it back. I want it to die a *legend*

"I sacrificed everything to become Prophet"
Tell that to Alcatraz, buddy.
Still remember the first time i saw this ending with the most memorable scene from crysis 1, had shivers all over me dammmn, fucking perfect end for a game with a fucked up messy plot like this, remember me ( and nomad )
These guys knew what they were doing. “Remember me” all these years later, Crysis 4 is in the making. Expect the teaser trailer to have prophets “remember me” in there 😉
It's all first person and it's like you're reading a book, or having Prophet sit next to you, talking about his story of what he all went through.
I feel, like there was no better way to end original Crysis trilogy. The best was to end it how it begun. With rough landing on lingsham islands. Maybe even, if Crysis 3 wasn't as good as 2007 or 2, it had a perfect ending. And yes. Alcatraz' body is still in the nanosuit.
Wrong Alcatraz was already dead by the time Prophet found him. The suit was the only thing keeping him alive at the end of Crysis 2 he dies it's complicated stuff.
@@Legion849 I see your point, but I think Alcatraz is still alive, but nanosuit simply replaced his memory with prophet's
@Darkness Believer it's still hard to believe we are finally getting another Crysis...
@mahirshahriar1586 according to the novelization, Crysis Legion, Alcatraz is still 'there',but his and Prophet's memories have merged, and either personality can be at the fore in charge. Alcatraz remained in charge for debrief during the book's main plot,, but eventually let Prophet run the body mostly full time by the time he gets recaptured by CELL in the time following his release from the CIA facility that debriefed him. (And after they shut down at least two other Ceph sites on Earth.)
@@SCComegaAlcatraz died while Lawrence was given a second chance on living in a dead man body and becoming the suit some players seem to think the suit thinks it's prophet but their wrong prophet is the suit his mind became one with the suit hence why he says he sacrificed his humanity to ascend in order to save the world but in the end he was still thankfully human till the end and realizes that solider is just himself.
had anyone else wished actual movie of Crysis when we were kids? And honestly i still do wish it to happen sometimes lather in future.
"Remember Me"
No.
@@broaderriver idiot
To clear it up for everyone, bluntly, Alcatraz in Crysis 3 really is by all means dead, as Prophet's persona has control over the suit and by extension, the body it covers. Also a note for those who just joined the series, this scene loops back to the original Crysis during "First Light" with Nomad. It's mainly fan service here.
I want my life's ending to be like him.
To become a nano-powered big black dude? I want that too!
When they came to me with DirectX 10, I sacrificed my wallet, my monetary income, to run Crysis. When my own graphics card set me back, I sacrificed that too. Replaced it, to run Crysis 2.
60 frames per second costs. Every time, you pay a little more. I saw a glimpse of Crysis 3 and there was nothing left of me to stop it. When the greatest gaming machine fails... what do we do then? What do I do?!
Right,tell them,but i sacrificate my PS3
😂😂😂😂
Anyone else rewatching this after the announcement?
5:54 I swear he threw it further than the splash LOL
I want my life to end like that. Just alone, accepting of what happened with my life, satisfied that I have closure.
Same sort of
I doubt it. Being truly alone is quite different from just wanting to be alone.
who else got chills at 6:11 XD
Yeah, that part is epic
johnnathan tempest fuck yea
The bit where Barnes officially becomes Predator Guardian Savior of humanity.
This is the Predator movie we deserved.
Chills? I almost teared up!
I think it kinda makes sense that Alcatraz is gone, the series theme clearly is sacrifice and he was just a grunt to begin with. He did what he had to do, severely injured, he had countless near death moments and actually died two times in the suit, only to be saved twice by it. There's only so much damage on can endure before there's consequences.
WTF i still don't get if Nomad is really dead or not... the picture shows 6 members of Prophet team, the dog tags are 3 and counting in even Prophet and Psycho, we arrive to 5, so there's one missing... the hidden dog tag shows the letters "CAKE", meaning that it belongs to Cupcake not to Nomad... but it's also true that in the Crysis comic, nomad sacrifice himself in order to save Prophet and Psycho... also during the game there's the UKNOWN log file that shows that Nomad is still alive.
Is he dead or not? What do you think about it guys?
I've heard the comic is not following the game of Crysis. I feel Nomad is still alive
it makes headache.. u r a genius
As u can see in the picture only 3 people are highlighted so other 3 has nothing in common
Nomad died in a rocket attack between 1 and 2. It was released in some kind of comic/story thing, not sure what it was, but basically, Nomad died.
When you collect all the intel in Crysis 3 you can see that Nomad is still alive, he's being chased by a Nano-operator called "Lockhart". Whether this is the Lockhart (from the second game, miraculously revived, or his Nephew mentioned in Crysis 2, who isn't really dead after all), is left unclear.
I am not ashamed to tell I cry everytime I watch the ending. This is no game, this is an emotional bond with Prophet.
everytime i watch the cutsene i get goosebumbs
Maybe, one day before I die, as I wake up on my last day, I'd want to imagine this song playing in my head. After decades of living, going through pain and happiness, meeting my goals and people, it's a perfect music to think about.
Everytime I see that ending I get chills down my spine like no other game has ever given me before, truly the most memorable ending I've ever seen.
Same dude.
This game links with me in a way no other game can.
I actually sorta feel like O have Nanosuit symbiosis in a way. As when I stay away from this game for too long it sorta feels like the suit is calling out to me.
Drawing me back in.
Pretty interesting even if it is all in my headm
Crytek should bring back the CRYSIS Trilogy Remastered for PS4 and XB1. Agree? Thumbs up 👍😎

6 years later... Aw man...
6 years later ..... shit Crysis Remastered
Crysis 4 is officially announced and will be released in the coming year or two 2024 or 2025.
The minimum requires are unspecified but they did say that a 3060 should be able to run it comfortably on medium graphics.
One of the greatest game series of all time no doubt.
2:40 That thing is absolutely massive and it just keeps coming out with no end. The design is fascinating, the interior mechanism spinning and flashing gets faster over time, like it's charging, is the entire vessel one massive weapon? Why mechanical tentacles hundreds of miles long? Wasn't the Ceph's original purpose is to terraform Earth? I NEED ALL THE LORE!
Prophet has got to be one of the most underrated protagonist
One of my favourite trilogies of all time! Really miss Crysis! 😢❤️
The amazing part of this story was that while Laurence Barnes as we know him - the man - is most certainly dead, the Nanosuit, a digital lifeform, stored his personality within itself and adopted his identity after bonding to Alcatraz in Crysis 2. The person you play as is effectively a braindead man wearing a suit that identifies itself as its last owner. At the very end, it adopts his identity completely because it believes itself to be Laurence Barnes, and alters its nanites to replicate the memories it has of his appearance in life. So while you're playing as a character named Prophet, whose actual name is Laurence Barnes, it's effectively a synthetic lifeform which has completely taken his place without realising. And also what of Alcatraz? The books did touch on this topic, but he effectively gave away control of his own body to the suit named Laurence Barnes.
Truly an amazing piece of fiction. After seeing the Crysis 4 teaser, I can't wait to melt my GPU in ten years! I can only hope the story is as thought-provoking as the original trilogy. While I hope it is a continuation of this story, a new original plotline would be nice.
I wonder is that post-credit scene was a cliffhanger for another sequel.
Propably
+Killer-Toni Maybe but crytek left EA and EA owns rights for crysis series so no more "real" crysis games are coming :(
EA might continue crysis series but without crytek it would be shit. maybe DICE could do something nice and fresh about it but really. Leave it like this it's better for all of us :)
Crytek actually owns the rights to Crysis. They've put Crysis DLC and cameos in all of their current games.
irou95 are you dumb???? EA only earns money from publishing games. They don't own any of them
Not true. Pretty sure they own the majority of their IPs. Crysis was an exception.
For the love of god I hope they end the series with this. Crysis is such a respectable series and is phenomenal in all aspects. HD remake the series for next ten I don't care but please don't make anymore sequels the series is perfect as it is.
Did you know that Crysis 4 should come out in 2016 :D
+Killer-Toni proof

+Killer-Toni yea but story won't be around prophet they said that they are done with prophet story maybe he makes a cameo in game but he won't be focus anymore

I expect to see a lot of people here today after Crysis 4 was announced
One of the best and most beautiful endings to a game ever! Although it mind be confusing as to what actually happened with the Nanosuit/Prophet it was an epic ending nonetheless.Also,I'm not sure it will ever be a direct sequel to Crysis 3,they wrap things up quite nicely,the universe of Crysis has a lot of potential so I'm confident enough we will see the Ceph again.
Not for awhile tho.
Oh damm just realized how old this comment is.
Crysis 4 is on it's way!
In that picture, all were Raptor team.
Sean ONiel, Jester, Prophet, Psycho, Aztecs and Nomad.
Still wondering what happening to Sean Oniel despite being removed from Raptor team before they being outfits with Nanosuit. ONiel supposed to appreciate that he wasn't part of the human experiment that Cell took Raptor team with.
This game is simply a masterpiece from every angle!
His house looks very familiar, like when you need to sabotage the Korean jammer on the beach in crysis
its the exact same one
I'm in love with the repeat button.
the most underrated game of the past generation
And the game that tanked the most PCs
Do you know how much it hurts to be able to play Crysis 1 & 2 but not 3?
I wish I never saw this ending but it makes me want to play the crisis trilogy so bad even more and after learning a bit of prophet story this ending is very sad and emotional and the best most beautiful ending I've ever seen😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Who's here after Crysis 4 announcement trailer
Remember the first game was placed in 2020
A suit that changes the rules. Had Hargreave inherited the suit, he would not have made the hard choices in the end, too paranoid and/or power hungry
Theoretically, if the suit can change it's integrity to take on any form, then it likely has the power to influence time. By studying the chemistry of the human genome, it would have opted into a parity checks and balances system on the same level of Superman reversing the rotation of the Earth! It would have accessed Hargreave's DNA and probably would have missed the valor gene
What intrigues me the most about this conceptually, is that that through Barnes' mind, it opted to retain the human form. You would think that the nanites would respond to it's native origin and return to the Ceph for decommission. It rejected its masters and found their mechanism for survival lacking also
The human mind is exceptionally strong willed
10 years ago ...., man time flies.

"when prophet fails....whats left?"

he sacrificed barnes to become prohpet, but prophet fails, so now barnes steps in, the human
the machine failed, the human will not

Basically Prophet aka Barnes stored his mind in the suit that was given to Alcatraz the protagonist of Crysis 2. Barnes original body died and this allow his mind aka spirit to take over Alcatraz body overtime.
