Maximum strength. Maximum armor. Maximum speed. To PC gamers in the late 2000s, these words were the credo of a futuristic first-person shooter unlike anything else around it - Crysis. Developed by Frankfurt-based developer Crytek, Crysis dazzled the industry with its gorgeous graphics and open-ended gameplay, which encouraged players to make the most of both their own, innate abilities, and the environment around them. It was an uneven experience, one whose final third betrayed its strongest ideas - yet it was one that found its way into the heart of many a player. And within a year following its release, it would be complimented by Crysis Warhead, an expansion in some ways even stronger than the base game itself.
But as the years passed, Crytek would gradually migrate the franchise to home consoles, reinventing the series to better suit its new platforms for Crysis 2. All the same time and effort that had gone into making the first game was there, and then some - but it lacked much of what made its predecessor special. A third entry, Crysis 3, would make an earnest effort to address players’ complaints, and bridge the two disparate directions the series had driven in - but the moment had passed, and players had moved on.
This is the rise and fall of Crysis.

"They used to call me Prophet"
Now EA just call me Profit
way to little upvotes
😭😭😭😭😭crysis 2 and 3 give me so much nostalgia i miss gould i miss psycho but most importnant i miss... prophet
There's only one Prophet and that's me.
@@prophetmuhammad4949 😂😂
Nailed it.
I remember when "Can it run Crysis?" was the most important question when buying or building your gaming PC. Crysis was a benchmark for the almost a decade after its release.
desedez88 still is
I think you should be able to try medium settings with two RTX Titan now.
some pc benchmarks still use cryengine to check video and 3d
@Bryan Yorke not so far buddy, maybe in illumination but not in texture and graphics
@Főfasírozó Well, my 8th generation Intel I5 and GTX 1050 is struggling a bit during intensive firefights.
Crysis will always have a special place in my heart :')
@Everything LOL
I loved Cysis 3 online for PS3, that was the shit !
so true pal,the first and only game that make my to build new powerfull PC,only to play that game ,i love it to pieces,my story start in Crysis2 pirate version,but one i realize how good it is i bought maximum version of Crysis and full Crysis 2,still have it on my PC,its a shame multiplayer on Wars is not available anymore
@@moby752211 I did the same thing as well. Got the pirate version and finished it only to realize how extremely good the game is and then bought the full version. Crysis 2 was an FPS game way over its league compared to all the other FPS shooters at that time. From gameplay to story all the way to graphics and detail, just so perfect.
I love Crysis
Did you know that in Independence Day, the virus that Jeff Goldblum uploads to disable the alien ships was actually Crysis.exe with max settings.
Stupid move, ain't it?
According to this video, the company haven't even worked on that one yet. It was more like DOOM.exe
Made my day.
@@peposo7
More like Windows.exe
Crysis 1 heavily modded with Max settings.
GVMERS: "...and gamers had moved on"
Me in 2020: *still waiting for Crysis 4
Might be teasing us in by the end of the year
It's not in EA hands and it never was. EA was publisher. Far Cry and Crysis were developed by Crytek (German Studio, thus why engine is called CryEngine). The studio is not dead. They last game is Hunt: Showdown.

2:24 , Just an amazing series of games.. It was an awesome awesome game.
One of the best lines, I will remember it.
Crysis 1 still holds up to even today's best games in terms of graphics. It was the last game to really push the envelope.
yeah, and when it was released, i remember playing it, it was mind-blowing at that time
always bothered me some to find out Nomad died is some nameless mission......I liked him a LOT more than Prophet and even Alcatraz....
Crysis pushed the entire genre forward by 10 years and forced Sony/Microsoft and multiple graphics card developers to keep up. It had MASSIVE effects on the industry.
@@PaulRizzo504 yup. Also, game that developed for PC system and released on PC platform as well.
@@PaulRizzo504 I agree with you, , ,When CRYSIS was released, even the Top-On-Line-Systems with high-end graphic are struggling when Crysis is played on them with maximum graphic settings during its days. ..
For years to come, people will remember the one game no one could run
Except anyone could run it. It amazes me that this lie persists to this day.
The first time I played the Crysis demo was on my brother's 8500 GT. The 8500 GT was not even a mid-range card, it was a _low-end_ card. A _very_ weak card in 2007. And yet I played all the through the demo without any problem and loved every second. That PC had a dual-core CPU, but Crysis would have run just as well on a Pentium @ 2.8GHz.
Did I play maxed out at high resolution and 60 fps? _Of course not._ But I played it, without any problems at all. And when I finally built my first gaming PC in 2008, I played Crysis _maxed out_ on a GTX 260 less than a year after release.
@@bricaaron3978 one thing about the crysis games is that it is extremely friendly to low end pc, even the low settings look stunning but still maintain enough fps
@@tuocbui *"one thing about the crysis games is that it is extremely friendly to low end pc"*
Right. And that's one major difference between the true PC games that were released pre-2008 and the PC ports/versions released since: Settings actually made a huge _difference._ Over the past decade, games have often had many settings which have little benefit and little effect on performance, or a big effect on performance but little benefit.
And my favorite innovation of all: the Fake Setting. Yes, this is a real thing. Anyone can test this for himself, but there have been many games with settings--sometimes it's Textures, sometimes Shadows, or AF, etc.--that literally have NO effect no matter what the setting is. These are tossed in to fool PC players into thinking they're getting a proper PC release, instead of the usual toss-port with only Resolution and one or two other options.
Talk about dishonest, lol!
ironically quake 1 was much more demanding for its time than crysis was. the best computers ran the demo01 benchmark at 15fps average in fullscreen 320x200. my last-year-high-end 486 dx4 100 ran it at 7.5fps. half as fast as its pentium counterpart. i had to run the game in a tiny window to get a barely playable 20fps average.
quake only ran actually well when i got my pentium 233 mmx in 1997 then and my voodoo2 in 1998. and it was STILL more demanding than its sequel.
@@GraveUypo quake is ugly af and unoptimized, crysis's graphics compensated for it's demand.

SOS New York by Borislav Slavov 👌👌💯💯👌👌
Hans Zimmer - Epilogue
For sure. Epilogue just gives me chills. That guy did a great job.
Tamas yessss, that's the one. Amazing theme.
Crysis just recently becamse 10 years old. And after many people revisited it, pretty much everyone agreed and came into the conclution that the graphics still looks *MUCH* better compared to many recent games.
Not just the graphics, especially the physics are what made Crysis 1 special.
Yes, however as far back as the GTX580 - Crysis 1 was showing its age fairly reasonably. But it's still gorgeous, without a doubt and despite it finally showing its age... it is still worth the experience.
fine german engineering it is.
Fortnite has proven what 10 years of graphic processing technology is capable of! lol
Except for the baked shadows on things that don't dynamically react to light source. The aircraft carrier levels are kinda ugly now xD
I love this channel! People don’t realize that we need to document and save the history of game development. Thanks for all of your hard work.
Crysis did everything right - Atmosphere, gameplay, story and the aliens were fascinating.
My favortie game series so far xD
No, it did not.
1) Anything but armor or stealth is unviable
2) AI is quite bad
3) Balance is also sometimes a flop, with late game heavy gear koreans tougher than Nanosuit koreans
4) The alien fights were quite bad

Remember kids, say no to EA.
And Ubisoft. They need to learn their lesson.
@@oneinazillion - No. No one should ever buy their games again. They deserve bankruptcy for their years of lazy, buggy releases.
@@JonasRosenven Wrong methodology. It's like with real life - if someone does something good, you praise them, if not, your make sure it is known. If they made a good game, you praise them and buy it, to show them they have done something worthy and good. If not, do not buy it, it will show them that it's a bad one. etc. Crysis is a great game without problems, and they must be rewarded with it. Crysis is not really under EA, it's just Crysis was distributed/released through EA. Crytek is private, unlike DICE, which is fully under EA.
@@BIOSHOCKFOXX As far as the Crysis series goes I think they were great too. I still think gamers would be better off without EA/Ubisoft though. If we were talking about companies that tried to take a game in a new direction that just didn't resonate well with the players I wouldn't have this extreme opinion. EA and Ubisoft seems like they deliberately and constantly are testing the limit of just how much they can get away with in terms of buggy, lazy titles instead of actually making a product that is genuinely good. I'm not going to support a lazy, greedy company just because it once released a great title for someone else.
@@BIOSHOCKFOXX Your method would be sound, but at this point it's part of the so-called "utopia"(which is just a cool way of saying "please stay put and don't do anything about being abused, thank you"). Corporations don't see context, they see numbers. Big publishers are corporations like any other, if not worse due to lack of regulation. And Crysis games are _published_ by EA, meaning that all profits go to them first and then Crytek gets their cut.
this guy just sounds like he was meant to make informational videos.
I know right
Sounds like he could voice Modern Marvels from the History Channel
Or this video.
He very attractive.
I'm the only one who liked Crysis 2, I'm okay with that.
I loved it...
Same. :)
Yes me tooo
Crysis 2 (and 3) is still good. But too narrow compared with Crysis 1 because the level design was optimized to run on consoles. Blame consoles for making Crysis 2 and 3 level become smaller
@@faradiaulia5560 blame crytek for releasing it on console. or EA for wanting more money
Having played Crysis 2 and 3 SP this week, I have to say: They are even better than I remember. Crysis 2 has a great story, awesome music, and Crysis 3 looks awesome with great gameplay. They will be remembered.
and I hate multiplayers, crysis was one of the ultimate great single player experiences
Well, Crysis has single player + Multiplayer. Perfect
@Ajit kumar don't care about the online Multiplayer though. At least, me and my friend are still enjoy the LAN party in Crysis multiplayer
Laureano Alfaro I have to disagree with you on that, I never played multiplayer (I’m not a big fan of multiplayer (competitive at least) games) but I played all the games single player. While it offered some new concepts, I never felt like it was a great game worthy of high praise. To me, the reason it got talked about so much, was how great the graphics are, and those graphics still stand up even today. 2 & 3 did better for the story compared to 1, but they just never felt like great games the way uncharted or last of us felt
Same
Crysis was a superb technological demo but not a great game.
Maximum depression
no hope engaged

I was a great BF4 player, specially as sniper... in crysis i was getting destroied every game, guys used the suit alot better than me, but i still had some fun.

*Amazing! The amount of work is just shocking! My only question is how did you find all that super-rare footages from 2000s and tech-demos now? I'm a huge fan of Crysis series and many pieces of this were new for me. Liked and subbed!*
I'll answer this bec. I used to haunt main crysis forums in the years before two came out (forgot the name), and thought the same thing about these kinds of clips at one point. All the hard to find, old clips were constantly shared within the forum, so I imagine the same is true today, you need to lurk communities to find them.
Why did you make everything bold?
If you are a huge fan, check out my other comment, let me quote
"And because Crysis 1 is such a great game, we from germancrysis.com are hosting new online servers with our mod again since YEARS now. Our mod and servers are free to play and download, and work with both Steam and CD versions on 64 and 32 bit. The official online servers were shut down on May 31 2014, due to Crytek have huge financial problems.
Do your tribute and buy Crysis 1 from Steam, get our mod, play the game and enjoy what everyone was talking about back than. At the moment, you need a PC that can run CS:GO on Max Graphics on 100 fps, in order to play Crysis on Mid-High settings on 60 fps, so this SHOULD work for most of you.

We should all sign a petition and submit to EA for a Crysis 4 game!
man you would be a fan of crysis but i am the biggest fan here
Can't spell "Death" without "EA"
Ouch... 😉
"Fall of Crysis"
Crytek: Yes, but actually no.
Please do a "The Rise and Fall of Mafia". Similarly to the other game series you usually talk about in these videos, the Mafia series also had amazing potential and while flawed delivered a unique first game with a well written story and realistic game mechanics. Then it fell hard and after a period of "development hell" for Mafia 2 and then Mafia 3 it turned to an awkward and buggy gta clone. I think it would make a great case study.
Btw great video as always, keep up the good work
None shall pass I don’t know how the third game was, but 2 was great and the first was meh.
The third game is very bad (bug and glitch, graphic worse than 2, repetitive and story isn't good)
It was a worst game is 2016
You must have very limited knowledge of videogames if that's your opinion. It wasn't a catastrophic failure, it was buggy and sometimes ugly, but it was still fun and had some of the best cutscenes of that year.
But in general, still the worst game in 2016 and somebody said that Mafia 2 better than 3
You want to know why, then check Crowbcat channel and see his video about Mafia 3
All 3 games were complete jaw dropping masterpieces. I'm glad they we're all done differently, and I wish they would have sold better.
Crysis Warhead Underated for sure.
There's 4,. Play war head. It's crysis 1 on steroids. There's a part where's there's a full on war, it's nuts!
Crysis 1 and Crysis Warhead are still amazing than 2 and 3
@Chucky z Crysis Warhead is just an expansion pack of Crysis 1
I was a kid when this came out. I bought my first ever gaming PC this week. It's been 13 years but I'm really excited to play this.
This game hits me personally, to the near point of crying. I remember how much I loved crysis 2 as a kid.
Let's not make Crysis 3 available on Steam, that will help sales.
It's an EA publisher intend. They don't want to pay % for having their games on steam, so they do it origin exclusive.
The reason I haven't bought it, since it's not available on steam.
EXACTLY! EA is so stubborn and myopic.
I've come to accept that Steam cant be my sole distribution platform for PC games anymore. I use Origin and Microsoft store/xbox a lot as well though not anywhere near as much as steam. and Uplay just for some reason have to be there even though all their games are on steam. lmao.
MS store /XBOX is doing great things, but they need work. the store itself isnt very good, and the XBOX app is a bit of a mess and even more so is the UI on the xbox hardware itself. its mindboggingly stupid and messy. But Play anywhere is nice, Microsoft releasing all their games to both PC and XBox is nice, and I am quite tempted to give gamepass a shot as it seems to be a great value to me. its a double edge sword. its great for PC gamers, but for xbox itself I find that the only noteworthy redeeming factors of the current Xbox'es is 4K blu-ray playback, gamepass and Backwards compatibility with older xbox'es. And ofc Xbox one exclusive games before play anywhere really became a thing, like all 4 of those games lmao.
As for Crysis 3, I remember at the time I was let down that it wasnt on steam. As annoying as that is origin isnt to much of a hassle to launch and just find the game you want to play so I am not all that bothered anymore, but I feel like all their games could easily just have been on steam as they once were. Microsoft I understand because they have the xbox brand and play anywhere along with gamepass that makes a good cohesive entity that is not really compatible with steam as a seperate service, but they got to fix their mess of a store and the xbox app. And the XBOX UI itself on the console is the worst. I loathe the ui on my Xbox One S, it used to be decent at least back in the 360 days and now its just a nonsensical incomplete mess.
Steam have just stayed solid. if it aint broke, dont fix it.
he is origin available
Thanks for the video, I was hoping you guys would cover this one.
I have a humble suggestion for a future installation of Rise and Fall: The Prince of Persia series. Please? :D
Achillez YES
Achillez yes. I totally forgot about that series. I loved it, the puzzles were so much fun. It just seems like the games disappeared.
That would be awesome ^^
the first assassins creed began life as a prince of persia game then when AC blew up, I guess it fell by the wayside
Sands of Time is still one of my favorite games. Fantastic pacing
2022, Crisis 4 has been announced.. And damn how could anyone not be thrilled ?
Crysis 3 was and still is one of my top 5 favourite games, I had such a good experience with both the single and multiplayer when the game released, I still go back and play it every year
DUDE! I’ve just finished 3, and hell yeah it’s awesome!
Notice how most of these game companies with franchise's once great, were started out of passion. What happened?
EA doesn't own Crytek I believe. I'm not sure what went south of Crytek. Maybe the leaders just worked their crew too hard and made dumb decisions.
Main issue is EA kind of sued them ,got them near bankrupt after crysis 3
Yeah cause im sure crysis 1 was very cheap and easy to make compared to its consolised sequel. Piracy is nothing new and it doesnt even affect sales. I know you have a hate boner against PC for some reason but its not the PC's fault the sequels became watered down compared to the first game.

Used to absolutely love Crysis. Now after watching this makes me wanna install and play again. Who is with me ?
U bee youu boo boo
Install it? It never left my PC. And I just played this game 8 hrs ago. Cleaned up the 1st 3 stages only using the pistol as a primary weapon.
I only play the first 6 stages of the game, were you fight human enemies. The many ways you can approach/move each stage(non-linear), gives an extraordinary chance of replay.
Have you tried killing the 4 armored soldiers in the cemetery, in complete stealth? Without alerting others to your presence, and not having them fire a single shot?
@@peposo7 I consider it a failure to not kill everything in stealth and get shot at.. I remember the 'valley scene' where NK troops starts advancing from other end towards you. Man that was some mental gymnastics to pull off. Camo off, fire headshot, camo on, spare energy to into hiding to charge energy and repeat.. It helped that they were so spread out. I don't think they ever got to shoot at me if i remember correctly. Played all 3 games last year one after another. Hate the parts where it's impossible to clear everything when aliens spawn continuously more and more... Stealth is the only way to go :D
Game that shaped generation, Sad it's gone and we got older :(
Crysis was my childhood :(
stop it, i can't take this anymore
Yep, we failed for allowing "today" to happen.
These are just games but reminds me of how old I am now :(

Thank you for the video, I grew up playing the crysis series, and I miss it
What is so sad about Crysis is how it never had to die. We see that Far Cry has survived by staying unique in its open world approach to first person shooters. Crysis could still be relevant, but they kept trying to simplify it for consoles. Instead of keeping it open world, they contracted the level design. Instead of embracing the strategy brought by each of the different armor modes, they combined them together. It didn't help that the story was a little out there and harder to follow than it should have been.
It's true though that the open world feel does kinda grind to a halt somewhat once one ends up inside the alien vessel, and later in the frozen landscape. Still, it's better than Crysis 2.
Consoles weren't the reason. -_-
Yes it was
No, it wasn't. If graphics weren't the main focus of Crysis 2, the game would have been like Crysis 1.
I didn't get it what are you trying to saying? if Crysis 2 would have been like Crysis 1 then it's a bad thing? besides in the 2011 xbox 360 and and PS3 were showing their technical limitations and PC hardware were evolving. but Crytek wanted quick cash instead of innovation. Console is the platform where the cash came from. so they have to make the game which is compatible with aging console hardware. that's why we got a corridor shooter instead open world sandbox. we never got a true sequel of crysis 1. instead we got a call of duty rip-off.
So many fond memories from Crysis, still have the disk laying around somewhere :D
Got mine right on top of my shelf. Only wish that those that pirated the game also bought it. That goes for all the entries, no just the first one. Who knows maybe then we would've had a 4th game.
And because Crysis 1 is such a great game, we from germancrysis.com are hosting new online servers with our mod again since YEARS now.

I just want to say thank you Gvmer’s for these documentaries if it weren’t for these I would still be in the dark about what happened to my favourite old time classics and what actually goes on behind the scenes in game development. I don’t know much still but before when a game sucks I thought it was cuz of the developers being cheesy or had lack of vision but know am like "hmmm something must had go on behind the scenes". I hope you carry on making these ^^.
The most depressing thing about this era of gaming is hearing about all of these amazing studios being procured by huge publishers and then forced to work on data mining, customer deceiving free-to-play mobile-esque games.

Let me know when u've solved this major problem.
I loved all the crysis games, they will always have a special place in my heart. Crysis 2 is my favorite game in the series. I'll never forget seeing the massive ships and building all around making you feel tiny, but the nanosuit giving you enough power that you felt like a god. Thank you crytek for all the memories
Couldn't agree more.. yes Crysis 1 and Warhead were technologically more impressive for their time, but as for sheer enjoyment, Crysis 2 takes the cake. The suit is actually fun to use and doesn't run out of energy after you so much as fart too loudly, the verticality and setting lends itself to far more interesting combat scenarios unlike 300 moronic soldiers walking and crouching towards you in a straight line every 25 meters shouting classics like "Kiiii Hiiiim", "Mouu aut" and "Hekky Shekkky" which 'til this day make roughly zero sense. Let's not forget Crysis 2 also had an amazing main theme thanks to none other than Hans Zimmer. It just felt more polished, more grand and way more fun.
Great VIDEO! :)
year 2019. My laptop still can't run Crysis.
Mine too...
Mine is just BARELY capable of running first 3 games. And i fucking doubt that Crysis 3 will even turn on lmao.
I played Crysis 1 on an Intel HD 3000 with everything set to medium except for shadows (low) and motion blur turned all the way to max(slider)
It was averaging 41FPS
Mine runs it at 55-60 fps full graphics ( ryzen 7 2.2 ghz and rx560x 4gb ddr5)
man this is so true. mY lappy cannot run crysis 3 or 2 either.the games are just not optimized well enough
another game destroyed by EA
Not for this case. Crytek killed themselve
@@chakkrapongrattanavong1678 EA did idiot
@@TheColdBloodedGamerS What they did? name what they did exactly... Crytek is not part of EA, they were only distributing the game, because Crytek is private, unlike DICE. EA didn't had a forceful hand on Crytek like they have on DICE.
@@BIOSHOCKFOXX for one they didnt let the game go on steam (where more then half of pc gammers get games)
@@ferretking137 That's it? It's not "game destroyed by EA"... because game wasn't destroyed by EA, pirates did, as it was mentioned here. Main thing was piracy, even director of Crytek said it as a reason why he wont focus on PC first like they did with Crysis 1.
P.S. (it's "than" and just "gamers"*).
Great video man!
Crysis 4 coming baby !! Nice video btw
And maximum power
And maximum erection! :P
Cloak engaged
thats because of EA. they only think oke more things that can run it more money. sadly you wil break GOOD games with this tectic
and my axe
@@mrknockknock1 Do a lot of people still play Crisis 1 and 2 did both of those games have multiplayer. I never played Crisis I never played Far Cry either. I'm sure there are game made by the companies that made those I never even heard of.
I don't care what anyone says I loved each release of Crysis. Warhead was awesome too. I wish Crysis 4 comes out someday and we'll get to see some sick graphics. I can only imagine how it'll look.
Warhead was really good. I think I liked warhead more than 1.
Imagine crysis 4 built using unreal engine 5 and 4k 60fps
game developers came to the conclusion: if we creating a perfect game
then we are going to starve. now they creating shitstorm con-games which they can develop indefinitely. WoT, Dota etc..
Great video and great graphics quality 👍 even in low resolution.
Just finished Crysis 3 yesterday and loved every second of it, still hoping we'll see Crysis 4 one day. :(
Side note: Crysis 2 and 3 soundtracks are absolutely amazing.
I liked the story of each one. Crysis 2 is my favorite, but it's not challenging, especially after finishing the game once you practically become Godlike even at the hardest mode. Enjoyable, but too easy.
Crysis 1 was amazing with Inon Zur.
But can it run crisis 4
Crysis 3 soundtrack is a mastapeece for the ages
WHAT ARE YOU PREPARED TO SACRIFICE?
They sure love the word "cry" don't they
Now with Crysis Remastered will the series rise again!
Yeah, i hope
If they don't melt graphic cards doing so
Because even tho this video doesn't tell anything about it, I feel like Crisis 3 also sold less because it was just to ressources demanding for its time. Look at the rain effects, and the size of the levels. Most pc users didn't have a machine capable of rendering that.
@@Sir_Bucket I really feel this is overstated, I played all three (not warhead) and even though I would consider graphics when buying machines through years as someone who liked playing and had a young son that was crazy about video games, I really never had the luxury of splashing on top notch equipment and would always purchase/build machines that were just above average both in terms of price and capability...
Its a shame that its just an desperate atempt to make money. I love crysis and the cryengine i hope they dont ruin it.
@@ChrisBa303 How is it a desperate attempt to make money?
I love this show. Keep these vids coming
"They called me... Prophet. Remember me."
They use to
Crysis 2 end
i will. forever.
This is it, Marine. Finish what I started.
Great line.
What a legend this game was. Still missing you Crysis
great video
very informative. thanks.
Crysis 1 looks better than 80% of todays games
It even looks better than its follow ups.
@@Gnarrkhaz That part is not true... Crysis 3 is the best looking one graphically. Just compare them, if you can't admit that, you are blind. They used a newer engine for last one.
That was a pretty funny joke.
Normal since todays game are made by young wannabe developers that have no experience and think that all games should be about killing zombies!
And Crysis 3 about 95%
I have a really strong bond to the original Far Cry. It wasn't really a great game, but the engine was pretty incredible - and the really amazing part was that it sort of appeared out of nowhere, at a time when gamers were really drooling over the "next gen" games that had already been on the horizon for years - Half Life 2 and Doom 3, among others. But there it was - out of nowhere, Far Cry looked like it was half a generation ahead of THOSE next gen titles... And to top it all off, it actually released before any of them (Far Cry released in March, Doom 3 in August, and HL2 in November). 2004 was one heck of a year for PC gaming.
But that's not really why I have such a strong bond with Far Cry. I used one of the early Far Cry demos, which by mistake or otherwise, included the full CryEDIT editor - as part of a presentation I did at school. The presentation was about game physics - and I fondly remember building a physics sandbox in the demo. Stacking barrels and boxes, spawning all sorts of objects and such, so that I could show off how advanced game physics had become, using a live demo. Brought my gaming PC to school and everything (because of course, no machine at school stood a chance at even loading the game). I remember even learning about some of the scripting tools in the game, to create AI groups and paths and so on.
So, in short - it's a really weird feeling watching this video, and remembering how this CryEngine piece of gaming history got started. And to think I used the engine as a class demo, before the game was even out. I'm feeling old....
Edit: OH AND ALSO, the Fry Cry multiplayer was *the bomb* at LAN parties. We had a local annual LAN party, and we would play Far Cry (original, no mods) Assault maps. We even had a tournament each year. Something about the Assault game mode, and that freaking beeping sound when the flag was about to be captured... It stirred people into a frenzy. So much yelling and so much panic and so much fun during those tournaments. The multiplayer was broken in a lot of ways, but we didn't care - we kept playing that game until like 2010, becase nothing else managed to pull people in quite the same way. And as an added bonus, the game's multiplayer was always quite obscure, so nobody was amazing at it - unlike CoD or CS, where there was always a handful of people at the party that would just be so much better at the game than everyone else, that it wasn't really fun to play. Far Cry was the great equalizer.
I didn't know anything about Far Cry before Far Cry 3, finding out just now that the original had to do with mutants more than it did terrorist groups or extremists. Didn't know that it started out with the plot of a 90's Sci-Fi movie. I said out loud to myself "THIS is what the original Far Cry was about!?" Having experienced the opposite just now, what were your reactions to Far Cry as the series progressed, as it became more grounded in reality and lost the original idea?
Agreed.
That hans Zimmer score in Crysis 2 pumps me up every time!!
What a fantastic game loved every second and played through more times than I can remember
I feel like I'm watching a well made PBS documentary.
Keep up the great work with the videos guys it's always great to see your videos in my inbox
Im not lying when I say I cried when the crysis remastered was announced... Crysis 3 introduced me to the game and I fell in love with it. I would come home, turn on my ps3 and play it all day. A year later I would receive a pc and play crysis and crysis 2 which I both loved. I love everything about this game series. The suit, the guns, *THE MUSIC* , and the lore. IM READY FOR THIS REMASTER!!!
I'm so happy you love it!!
Me too. 😍
Did you ever enjoy crysis remastered?
Came back here after seeing their first tweet after 3+ years
RECEIVING DATA
Came back here again for the announcement of Crysis 4. Hope Prophet, Psycho, and Nomad are back
Crysis 1 had the wow factor, the graphics, the atmosphere, the AI. It was a nice, immense experience, especially on delta (hardest) difficulty it was tactical, it was so exciting, so delicate. You weren't a superhero, you were just a special force guy with an enhanced suit, but not immortal. You had to be very cautious, plan every move, had to use the environment, the suits abilities. It was a very decent game. After that i tried crysis 2... compared to its predecessor, it was shallow, CoD-ish, EA/hollywood crap, it was a major disappointment...
The thing is, even the first game went shallow and linear after you enter the mines all the way to the aircraft carrier. The immenseness and open world style was only in the jungle.
That is what console players did demand in that era. Blame CoD and Halo for that.
I never saw a "CoD-ish" in C2. The CoD games are normally "Rail- Shooters".
Comparing any FPS you don't like with CoD is the most trash argument ever exists
Even 2 was good for realz just think 1 ouwowed everyone and made a lasting impression im a cod guy and in no way was it codish but its own thing and better
Blame extremely low PC sales and piracy.
I played Crysis 1 graphically modded on PC a few years ago and it blew me away. Crysis 2 was really solid. But Crysis 3 just really did it for me, I thought it was PERFECT. Relentless, violent as hell, and such a good story, excellent really. But the best thing of all, the voice acting and the writing was just AMAZING! "They USED to call me Prophet, REMEMBER ME". DAMN. I know the story tied itself together and ended beautifully but man I would really love for them to make a fourth Crysis where you go to the Alien world as the new Prophet.
Do you think they are working on it. If so I want it with an open world like GTA 5, FAR CRY 5, OR just like the first Crysis 1.
The new crysis needs tropical islands, but it needs something else new too... We could have artic/antartic levels and even space ones...
☢Thя4wN ╳ Yep with some new technologies
NEMRCOMEDY They're all great games. It's such a shame that PC elites had to ruin everything just because they coukdnt stomach the idea of console "casuals" getting Crysis games. I've only ever played any Crysis game on my PC, but just because 2 and 3 came out on consoles as well does absolutely nothing to diminish the games on PC.
I completely agree with you. I LOVED Crysis 3!
6:56 Anybody remember how Call of Duty: Ghosts actually made a big thing out of what was pretty much shown in this old ass Crysis Demo? Like a pile of trees that move if you shoot it or fishes that swim out of your way. Mindblowing how quality depends on each studio.
I really like crysis 2 and 3s multiplayer way more the crysis 1 and warheads, I also liked the story for crysis 2 and 3 more , but the game play and level design of the single player campaign for crysis 1 and warhead were very much superior
i agree
But Can crysis run Crysis?
Masterhitman935 Skyrim can’t.
CRYCEPTION
you killed the joke.
Apparently, not anymore
Can Crysis 2 run Crysis 1?
Crysis 1 was pretty awesome. Crysis 2 looked too blurry for my taste and the gameplay was too "CoD" like. Crysis 3 is pretty fun.
Crysis 1 was pretty fun. Crysis 2 was a really compelling exam of the separation of a human into mind, body and conscience. Crysis 3 was beautiful, pointless, corny cheese.
the ALPHA CEPH!!!!!!!salkkjdth;
+Cynical Joker
Alcatraz is killed in the beginning. His mind and conscience are eliminated, leaving only his body. A body alone is useless. No direction, no purpose. But it does have form.
Prophet finds him as he's dying, carries him away and puts him in the nano suit. At that point, Alcatraz the body gains the suit's intelligence. At this point, Alcatraz regains the mind. The suit's AI tells him where to go and what to do. With a mind, his body now has direction.
Over the course of the story, it's revealed that Prophet's consciousness was left behind in the suit when he took it off. Something to do with the mind/body symbiosis that characterizes the relationship between suit and wearer. Certain events allow that residual consciousness to awaken inside the suit's AI. Prophet is now in the player's ear, telling them why they need to complete the mission (and when they need to go off-mission). Prophet is conscience, and he gives Alcatraz purpose.
Body/mind/conscience. Form/direction/purpose. That's a complete human, right there. We lack form, we're an empty exosuit with an AI fruitlessly buzzing at nothing. We lack direction, we're a form in which no consciousness can awaken in the first place (Prophet existed in the "deep layers" of the suit's AI). We lack purpose, we're just a physical form running at mission objectives unquestioningly.
I thought that was pretty profound. The first game, by comparison, is just regular alien sci fi with some light political thriller mixed in. Meanwhile, the third one is a saturday morning cartoon about hunting bows and the alpha ceph.
Loved the first half of Crysis, didn't care for the second half.
Crysis was never meant to be open world nor should it ever be. We already have enough game companies jumping onto that bandwagon already.
While Crysis 2 was the weakest game out of the three, it was still much better than most trash we got back then and are getting now.
Graphics will only take you so far. Crysis 1 was incredible and way ahead of its time, but with all the console peasants around it was inevitable that the next games be held back in that regard.
The most important thing will always be gameplay.
I think the fun came from the open-ended gameplay of Crysis 1. Yeah it was "open world" but even if it was a bit less open the gameplay would have shined through. It was truly revolutionary in terms of gameplay and visuals. Even today when I play the game I'm honestly surprised how well the game looks. Sometimes it's downright beautiful when the moon is shining down upon you or when the sun is coming down.
You know those types of games that look so good you just stop and look around? That happens a lot to me in Crysis. The story and characters weren't amazing (I think Crysis 3 was the best in that regard) but it was still extremely fun.
Still one my favorite games ❤️
Lived the nano technology
Just replayed the series on maximum. Loved it.
I'm watching this in 360p for that nostalgic feel
I wanted to say "We need CRYSIS: REMASTERED"... but then I realized that RTX 2080 Tis wouldn't run it at 60fps 720p.
just search craptube for crysis rtx aaand we dont need a shitty money grab by "remastering", we already have Mods on PC
i'm working on a remake of the first Crysis but need some peoples for fix some AI and vehicles/weapons !
Hey soooo about that Crysis Remastered...
@@JackCooper243 haha was about to say that...
I would buy it to see how good the new graphics is. The mods are to complicated to instal and finally lt looks noot realy good with this over-blooming Effekt
Jordan... Man what an epic voice you have!
Crysis was my favorite game growing up, so many memories I used to search if crysis 4 was gonna come out every year
Crisis 2 intro song still gives me goosebumps!!!!! Classic!
Crysis 1 multiplayer was pretty fun to play.
And it was much more dynamic than the one showed in this video. The problem was it was very difficult since you had to struggle a bit to be completely able to control the Nanosuit abilities in the multiplayer, you could combine the abilities and “create” new ones.
It was a hardcore multiplayer.
But it really was fun. It was the best multiplayer I ever played. And I played many: Medal of Honor, Battlefield 2 & 3, COD, etc..

"They used to call me Prophet, remember me".
Always ❤️
I can remember how my mouth was opened when I first saw Crysis 2 gameplay, it was far ahead of its time back then; digital hud, and graphics were so breath-taking.
Crysis 1 still looks excellent even to this day.
But... Can your computer run it?
To me the original Crysis wowed me out of my mind when the Onslaught mission started.
I mean, the game felt already huge, but that colossal battle between tanks was hands on
*the best and most ominous FPS sequence I've ever experienced.*
And chopper-killer grenades!
Crysis is a must play to every person gaming on PC, CVarGroups and all.
It's that extraordinary.
CRYSIS MY BABE!!! I miss you soo much T.T I still got the game CD!! damn the nostalgia.. Even my dad was addicted to watching me play this.. once even played it at a electronics store and everyone was staring at me, good old times... Anyways I'll keep hoping that someday they'll decide to make a remake of this, perhaps who knows..
And now it´s back!
