Crysis Demo from Crytek
I know, little late, we do not really post demoversions, but this is something you can’t just miss. Probably the best game of this year, sci-fi first person shooter Crysis is here and you can try the first level of the game in this singleplayer demoversion, together with Sandbox level editor. The full game will hit stores on November 16. The installation file is super huge, 1.8 GB will probably take you some time to download.

People should check to see can they run this before downloading – the spec requirements are crazy
another fricken 1.8GB demo, and another overrated game. for the love of….

OMFG!!!! this game is so awesome and i can run this with full settings woho
Unmetered rocks
I’ve got about 20fps usually on medium details, but I’ve expected 25 like it was written in the beta test. Nevertheless it rocks.
Transformers HD-DVD encryption has been cracked & the Iso released so expect a 720p & 1080p 264 version in the next coming hours.
Downloading…
Lots of mirrors… Nice.
Looks gud!
http://www.gameupdates.org have a tracker so you can download the demo via bittorrent/utorrent
Hardly overrated. This is a good download and probably the best demo for a game probably ever. Hopefully the game follows closely. A few minor annoyances, but the game allows you to play a lengthy part of what appears to be the beginning of the game with full use of your suit and on any of the 4 difficulty settings.
Good stuff.
gah, I knew I should of stretched to an 8800gts 640, hopefully the 320 version can handle it ok, will see in a few minutes …
40 min download, no problem.
is Work on My GeForce 6600 128 MB : Porcesor AMD Athlon XP 2600+ (1.92 GHz): is under minimum and is work OK at Low settings and 800/600 rezolution ..with Fraps look 20-25 frames per second
Hard Drive – 12GB!!!!!!!!!!!!!
next year i want to upgrade my PC….to newest hardware from Intel and Nvidia..
PS try to instal latest Nvidia and AMD-ATI drivers beta is work OK with this Demo at least at my ..from 13-15 frame/sec to 20-25 frame/sec
Damn my 8800 gtx is broke and I took it to the shop.
But I will try it with my old computer… hopefully this 9700pro won’t explode
I actually liked farcry, I was waiting for this game when I heard it was being made with the new engine. It looked good last year, but I think the hype will make the game kill itself. The suit is ugly as hell. I also read that crytek shouldn’t of released details and screenshots of the aliens. Ialso think the game requirements are too high. I will not update just for one game. I know I will have to sooner or later but I can wait til motherboard prices and memory and videocards are low, once I see a highend card around 180 bucks i will upgrade. I also think 1.8 gigs for 1 level is way to much for a demo. I remember when demo’s were 40 megs :/.
Should have not probs playing this on either of my setups
Dual Core AMD x2 5000+, 4gb and 8800 Ultra
Intel Q6800 Quad core, 4gb and 2x 8800GTS in SLI
If these can’t handle it, then I will bloody well give up
Guys, you don’t have to DL this to see if it works! Just go to system requirements lab and test your computer. I am saving about 3 days and 1.8GB by testing it. I failed in everything needed
Looks good on XP, but looks even better on Vista, with a DX10 card that is. Still has some balancing issues, like I would empty a clip in a Koreans head and the he’d still wouldn’t go down
.

Amazing! I played through on hard and it’s fooking awesome. I think this demo will go down as one of the best ever, when you consider the editor and all the mods that will come out, files are all openable and modable
http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/bonus/a/register/t/analysis.tmpl#
Looks like my cpu and vid card failed. Everything else seemed to pass.
the game is unplayable maxed in dx10 even on sli’d 8800ultra’s
i with a 8800gts must play in dx9 all maxed or in dx10 on medium
hope they optimize it better, nvidia drivers need some tweaking too
google is down
hmm im probably gonna need a new processor to play this.
It ran on my 3000+, 1GB ram, radeon 9550 256mb
800×600, low details, decent frame-rate
pitu ur a stupid or ignorant person, this game is not overrated because its friggin incredible, if u were lucky enough to play the beta like me you would know how amazing the game is, and its 2gb because this game looks so amazing and detailed. pitu goto school before dissing something that about 40million people want!
Awwww sh!t I was hoping that DX10 would have it running even better (Release it will for sure) even on the demo.
I have a dual boot for nothing as it seems. Hope Hellgate: London gives me some DX10 goodness when the preorder arrives.
WooOoO
That dude looks hot.
LOL SRL rates my x1950 pro as a 64mb chip…wtf?
amdx2 dual core 64 4600 8800 gts card
Crap
I got the pentium 6000+, and 8800 GTX “XXX” overclocked version
Gonna be sweet
I don’t get it. BioShock gfx similar to Crysis, still it won’t work by any means. And Crysis will work. And H-L2 Episode Two works totally perfectly. And looks kinda similar to Crysis.
Does it mean that Unreal Tech. (BioShock) guys are n00bs when compared to Valve (H-L2)? :>
1.6GB Demo. Damn, this is serious. Got to try this. Thanks for the heads up.
What is so unusal with a 1.6 gig demo, there is one of those released quite often nowadays, and I dont think 1gig memory and a 256k videocard with directx 9.0 is “ridicilous” specs for anyone who bought a (rather cheap) computer in the last three years.
i can smell fanbois
this game is nice yes but its not THE BEST GAME ive ever seen.
graphics are really good but gfx is not everything
just another totally overhyped game with crap balancing and bad overall performance, sp might be good but the mp is horrible
and yes i played the beta over 6 months
and yes i also own a high end quad core with 6 gigs ram and a 1 gig vram gfx card and the performance still sux for nowadays.
good potential but failed terribly
my2cents
^^ Agreed
finished it….meh…nothing to write home about…same old gameplay, corny dialog, beaten-to-death plot…sure its pretty, but if i want pretty i’ll go play DOA Volleyball or something…will not bother with the whole game…
On 1,20gb now, only 600mb left.. But I guess my comp wont be able to run it.

What the hell is a pentium 6000+?
i put everything on high at 1024×768 and it puts the hurt on my pc i get a below 30 fps with my pc and its barly playable it might be my cpu holding it back or maybe its that that demo don’t support sli? wut do you guys think , i put the latest beta drivers in
athlon 64 3800+ x2 @ 2.0
2 gigz DDR2 667
2 x 7900gs 256mb (sli)
Abit Kn9-SLi (nforce 570 sli)
200 gb MAxtor SATA/3 7200rpm
nobody mentioned that one of the requirements is winrar.
what the hell is winrar?
OMFG woooooot? i cant run it on my windows ME

feels like a far cry mod, looks pretty in places though.
And since when has 1.8gig taken awhile to download?

e6600
2 gig ram
got around 25 fps with medium settings except characters and env on hight without fsaa.
that´s really bad in my opinion. looks not that cool either…
game´s ok, but the new features like the suit possibilities get lost i but imo.
1280*1024 i forgot
This demo/game is over-hyped and its the suckage!
Appart from the graphics I dont think this is anything special. It doesn’t have anything new that I now of that we haven’t seen in other FPS.
Impressive game.
I would give it 8.5/10
My head hurts after playing it tho – seemed a bit laggy at 1600-something x 1000-something, all high effects.
The grafics were awesome with directx 10.0 btw.

@josh
wut do you mean ?
Love this demo….This is far cry with bells on it
got an AGP sys with x9500 and a bit slow but stil playable ….Reasons to upgrade …..just got one …..phone…..HI can I up my overdraft PLEASE …..:) THANKS ….enjoy people this is cool
The pre release warned you this will eat your system so either pay the reaper and upgrade or go suck a PS3 and enjoy the static world of it dont get any better!!!!!? If you wanna game then spend some bucks and enjoy

Best game of the year LOL come on. not even close.
LST 29 thanks for the only useful info in here:) Wankstar34,51 we don’t give a damn about the machine your daddy bought you for Halloween so that u can play crysis grow up and by the way Pentium 6000+?0hha0h0ah0ah0ah0ah0ahaha what Intel made only for u a brand new processor?
james 49 u might want to search it a bit more the game has nothing to do with all others FPS games
YO wankstar your new Pentium 6000+ is it a multicore nanoprocessor ?
ahahahah0hah00ah0a00hha0ha0haaaa:P
C2D E66900 + 2GB RAM + Geforce 7900GS = playable only on medium details… Think is time for a videocard upgrade.
@ ballllls
During the press releases the makers of crysis said that they had to disable parts of the game because todays hardware could not possible handle it. these additional pieces of the game will be enabled 2 or 3 years from now when there is hardware out that will be able to handle it.
With that said can you really think that a 2 year old computer will be able to play it at a decent framerate with the eyecandy turned on?
Its your whole computer holding you back your proscessor, ram, hard drive and to some extent even your video cards.
AMD64 X2 4200, with 2gb ram, and a brand new 8800 geforce card, I can play the demo at 1600×1200 on high settings. But in some places it does get a bit shocky, so for a bit better constant framerate I’d probably have to use a couple medium settings.
Awesome demo btw.. also install the sandbox editor and open the multiplayer map. You can also place helicopters, tanks and hoovercrafts etc, although some don’t have any sound effects yet. The singularity tank with the huge nuclear-ish blast effect is pretty cool. Too bad you don’t see the blast itself in the demo, only the destruction it does.
next year on xbox360 XD
hahaha xbox360 keep dreaming noob, 360 would burn in like 2 seconds lol
On anything less than top hardware specs it looks like your average console conversion and runs like crap.
I’m sure any game would look amazing on their recommended specs, so I’m really not impressed.
It was running slow on my rig, but then I updated to the latest Forceware drivers, and she runs like a dream now.
http://laptopvideo2go.com/
3500+ 64, Ati radeon 9800pro and it still runs very nice. Even looks like Farcry too.
If this game looks this amazing on my old rig, im definetly putting a big money on a new rig just see this game at its full glory.
Well the game set everything on the lowest spec for playable framte, but I had other ideal’s.. I set everything on high except for shadows effects cause shadows effects are useless to me. I was getting 5 fps but it was somewhat playable
. The game does look good at the higher settings, like water effects and explsions and the moon and the stars.. etc.. it is a fun game and the weapons rock. I really like the HUD GUI.. I guess I like everything about it. Except the storyline. We just happen to fighting north koreans? Not likely.. Of all the countries north korea is not one I think we would be fighting in 2020.
Cry sys requirements
Yeah, I didn’t like it. Formulaic in every way with no features that define it from the rest of the genre. I’ll pass on the full version.
What overclocking tool (software) did you use to share system memory with the videocard?
To post 73@
Gainward ExpertTool, but i think the motherboard bios did this by itself when i installed the new System Ram some time ago.
The motherboard is a MSI with MSI Bios.
don’t ask why, it just did that.
The first time i saw this was in the Display properties>Advanced
here i can clearly see this:
512MB Dedicated Video memory
546MB Shared Video memory
Yes i’m sure..
“Total Available Graphics memory: 1058 MB”
so what would happen if you buy a 8800GTS 640 MB? maybe 640MB + 512 Mb .. i don’t know
But i’m gonna find next year.
People, HELP please…..I´ve downloaded the file “Crysis_SP_Demo.exe” from torrent, and when I tried to extract it, it gave me an ERROR in file “Genera~1.cab”….tried using latest Winrar version or executing the .exe itself with the same results….and of course cannot install the demo
Could someone upload this file only (Genera~1.cab) to rapidshare or another free site?…..my dsl speed sucks (512/128) and i cannot download the whole file again…..it took me 2 1/2 days to download it
Please, if someone could upload this file, test before opening with winrar to know its OK. I downloaded it from another place and its corrupt too
Thanks a lot.
This is one of the games which I would love to buy rather than downloading through torrents.
yeah @77, me too, but i want to play the demo first
Why would you guys rather buy it? Is the multiplayer alot of fun? (I didn’t get in on the multiplayer beta).
I may buy it as well if only to utilize the Sandbox editor to hopefully take some team deathmatch maps and put a.i. in them which could force co-op to work… I hope.
very low fps on my C2D clocked at 2.5ghz w/ 1gb of RAM (1680×1050 w/ medium settings)
My 7900gt is probably the bottleneck… get at least a 8800gts for eye-candy gameplay =p
the textures still look okay on low settings though!

to post 81.
dah you get low Fps becouse you run the game in a horrible high resolution.
try using much lower resolution, higher resolutions are difficult to use becouse of the small Text and that you see no diffrence in qality.
I got
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+ CPU 2.21 GHz Performance Rated at 3.50 GHz
1,5 gig ram
NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT
Direckt x 9.0c
I run Bioshock no problems, but I cannot seem to run properly this demo. I can play but it’ got lots of ‘invisible mountains, people are just eyeballs, invisible guns yet the in-game hud is perfect. Might it be the version I downloaded or maybe something harware malfunction?
Kinda clueless here
I know this is stupid, but what programs u guys use to test the fps in-game?
@exorcist. use Fraps 2.9.2
In the game lower the console and type r_displayinfo 1. This will show FPS. There is a console in game for a reason you know….
If you have a graphics card within the 8600gt/ 8800gtx range. Than this is a good game. It’s standout points? Presentation, and thats about it.
pros:
1. Amazing graphics,
2. Amazing Physics,
3.good special Abilities
Cons:
1. Concept/story RIPPED from predator 1.
2. Generic Gameplay with special abilities thrown in..(how original..)
3. Plays piss poor on even a “just above average” computer rig.
4. Goals/aims: Recieve generic orders from your commander, complete them, and recieve more generic orders. fun.
Bottom line…
If you are a graphics junkie, than this game is for you. Used to love FPS, but there is only soo much you can do with one. The biggest benefit any fps should recieve is an amazing storyline. There is none in Crysis. Just a generic scenerio, another thing… It plays nearly identical like Far Cry…
I fell for the hype, and ended up dissapointed. piss poor.
Baraka, I had the same problem (eyeballs, invisible mountains…),
upgrade your nvidia Driver, will fix the problem. =)
nifty
This will look great on my projector
, they have come down in price so far since I last looked.
I must Said that this game its look just as I was expected”Great”…..
Finaly you can see the direct x10 in action and maybe if you a lacky some of the very high details in vista64/32…
For Xp the maximum of each of details is High but still run nice and smooth…

FPS in xp everithing high around 33-48
Vista random details very high shader 20-25fps
After downloading and extracting the demo, it says the installation file is corrupt and asked me to download a fresh copy….did anyone face a similar problem, i m using win xp
