Crytek community manager Alex has sent out a news letter today talking about the upcoming patch for Crysis. Take a look:


Greetings beloved Community!

Today we have got a little update on our upcoming patch #1 for Crysis for you. Even though there is no final change log available at the moment since the patch is still work in progress we would like to give you a rough overview what kind of issues are being addressed.


Crysis Patch #1 – General Content
First of all we don’t have set a release date for the patch yet. We are still working on it, but we are very confident that the patch will be out right after it has been verified and checked for stability. We will let you know immediately once we have more specific information on this for you.

As for the content it self, the patch is going to address following categories:
• Overall Performance
• Adjustments to LAW and Grenade balance in multiplayer

Please keep in mind this is not a major patch to the game, but more an update on performance and some Multiplayer tweaks that have been requested by the community.


Pre-Order/Special Edition Exclusive Vehicle (Amphibious APC) – Online Issues
A few of the people who got access to the Amphibious APC wonder why they are not able to purchase that vehicle in one of the factories. This is related to the fact that the dedicated server need to be logged into Gamespy to allow people who purchased the pre-order/SE version of Crysis to buy the vehicle ingame.

We already informed most of the server hosting companies about that and we recommend everyone who is setting up a dedicated server to read the Crysis Server Documentation.


Weapon Sound loop – Workaround!
Some committed community members found out a temporary workaround for the sound looping bug that occurs in some multiplayer sessions. In the case you experience this bug please follow this instructions:

1. Open console and type in “con_restricted 0” (without “”).
2. Type in “s_soundenable 0” (without “”) to disable sound completely.
3. Type in “s_soundenable 1” (without “”) to enable sound again.

So whenever this bug occurs just follow the steps above and the bug should be gone. Crytek is also trying to solve that problem once we are able to reproduce it in-house.

Thanks to these members for finding this workaround!

also word on Crysis 2


Few days ago Crytek joint founder Cevat Yerli surprised the fan municipality with the announcement of two further Crysisof parts (see news). Steven Bender, boss of the animation department, has now in Berlin on the Lichtblick4D Meet & Greet meeting for the first time further details for planned continuation admits given. Crysis bench mark Tool publishes (23.11.2007)Crysis

Therefore the second part is to resume not only history around Koreans and Aliens, but also offer graphically numerous innovations. Special attention is thereby to the courses of motion as well as the face textures and animations. Thus a still more realistic play feeling is to be achieved. A avowed goal is to be approximated it an experience on film level.Crysis

Besides Bender still suggested that the Crysiscontinuations was not the only current projects with Crytek. It did not want to call further details however yet.

I hope it hits sooner rather than later...

I'm stuck with this bug

if you click anywhere on the screen while the game is loading. (Ie. hasn't shown the intro yet, but you've double clicked) this will happen. at least for me ;)

Hope that helps

Crytek = techdemo.

The main strength of these titles is a Doom3-esque massive portability. Notice that this game came with an integrated editor? No? Oh well.

I really need to block this website from my pc.
