Crysis Remastered Reviews

good overall, but wtf is wrong with the controls in the alien core level? floating cam was nauseating. still, compared to most fps campaigns, crysis delivers, at least gameplay-wise. it remains top-notch for me.

I've read many reviews before buying this game (or rather, this trilogy), but I wanted to leave my own review with a relatively good opinion, along with a few specific points. Compared to the 2007 original, this remaster is a small step forward in some areas. The overall graphics and presentation are noticeably improved, especially the colors. While they might not have the same nostalgic feel as the OG version, I personally really liked the color palette here and don't regret the purchase in this regard. Yes, there are some bugs, but so far they haven't ruined my experience—at least not during my time on normal difficulty. I'll list my specific observations below. Here are a few things that have been fixed or now give this remaster a better score: 1. Draw distance issues are gone. 2. The game runs smoothly on new systems, even if you don't have a top-tier PC. 3. The colors are more natural, and the palette looks great for the tropical setting (this is my subjective opinion). 4. Weapon animations are now much more fluid. 5. There are no longer processing balance issues; resources are used properly. 6. This version doesn't suffer from the refresh rate problem that the 2007 game had (one of the most annoying issues). 7. RT support adds a bit of realism and, from my perspective, is a real plus. 8. There is good support for achievements now. 9. You no longer need other launchers like the "beloved" Origin/EA App, and that's definitely not missed. And now, for the things that are a bit clunky and will likely remain unresolved. You just have to play it as it is: 1. Sound sometimes glitches out, cutting off too quickly or one track playing over another. This happened a few times during more intense moments. 2. It's still a console port, and you can feel this in some textures that haven't been improved. 3. Minor visual bugs. 4. Sometimes RT acts up, with some shadows not being rendered correctly. 5. The enemies or AI aren't very well-polished or balanced; you are much easier to detect. 6. No matter how much you try to play stealthy, it's difficult due to the AI. 7. HDR is better left off, as it's not very well-balanced either. Playing on Very High settings with RT on High, the experience was decent. It's far from perfect, but overall, I was able to play it almost out-of-the-box without much hassle. I would recommend this bundle only to those who couldn't play the trilogy when it first came out and now have good systems. It offers a good enough experience for a newcomer. That's precisely why I decided to try these games. I can't wait to review parts 2 and 3 because I've heard they are much better optimized. I know this review might be frustrating for veterans, as there are other issues they've pointed out. However, what I've observed in my initial hours were exactly the pros and cons I listed above. For those who are truly nostalgic, the original PC version with its launcher is still recommended if you absolutely want an authentic experience, even with the limitations of its launch era.

Missing textures, bad performance, AI gets bugged frequently and you cant rebind 'f' for exiting vehicle.

The first crysis is pretty meh, its a faux open world that lures you into believing you have stealth options when in reality your only stealth option is using the suit. The AI is immediately aware of your presence even from a mile away the moment you step out uncloaked. Sometimes behind bushes, other times behind hills. I've given up on approaching the game as stealth as waiting for the suits energy level to move anywhere is just annoying. Running and gunning it. The AI in this game overall is just bad, not in a challenging way, just in a braindead but with eagle vision way. They are a bit of a bullet sponge as well. Cannot recommend the first Crysis, nothing about it feels good. I will finish it but only because I want to see where the plot goes. I was wondering why I never finished it the first go around and it became really obvious real quick why I got bored of it.

the feature for fleksible suit gone, manual save gone, even this game didn't have cloud save? wth dont recomend to nomad people who always switch from pc to handheld/laptop when not home

[b] All trilogy of Crysis Remastered is worth the price, this game is pure legend! a great nostalgia from past Seriously if you never play Crysis in your life then i can't call you Gamer, you must play it. though first Crysis Remaster has few werid bugs, but nothing so problematic and the difficulty level is insane but still great. 9/10

Crysis... can it run Crysis?!? LOL This remastered version with raytracing at 4K is realy another game... Even today this game is better than some new released titles. The fisics and graphics that this game have, are amazing! I recommend this game, or if you can, get the trilogy collection. TOP!!!

Pure nostalgia! As an old Crysis veteran, it's still fun to slip into the Nanosuit and dash through the jungle at high speed to take out Koreans and aliens in complete freedom. This time even as a remastered version with improved graphics and even more beautiful landscapes. Unfortunately, Crysis Warhead is not included and nothing has been changed in terms of gameplay, which is why you still have to deal with the old problems. However, this also contributes to the nostalgia if you want to see something positive in it. In terms of performance, it ran 90% well for me and I had a few bugs. A classic that I can recommend.

Remaster my ass... This is a poor console port that manages to look worse than the original. -Broken HDR -Clunky movement -Janky interactivity with items and weapons -AI with eyes in the back of their heads from miles away. -NO MANUAL SAVES in a game that asks you to spend hours sneaking around being tactical. -Damage sponge enemies Was bored in an hour. I waited for this Epic Game Store exclusive to eventually come to Steam and it was not worth the wait.
