"If it felt any more real, you'd bleed" Obsidian Edge II: "Theatre of War" (working title) is the groundbreaking sequel to Obsidian Edge being created for Crytek's up coming first person shooter Crysis. With intense realism as well as new game features never before seen in a first person shooter - it will forever change the way you think a first person shooter should be played. Get ready for edge-of-your-seat action - You will be required to lead assaults on enemy held positions, seek out and eliminate hostiles, perform coordinated missions, and fight for your own survival.

woo purty
Very cool, love the concept art there. And the engine will no doubt look amazing, now i need to save for a decent system.
how the heck did you guys get it into crysis when its not even out?
yeh i have to ask the same question as c4 here...or is this pure concept?
If I'm not mistaken they've got the pre-SDK.
Yep. Crytek allowed a few select mod teams to try out the SDK, and they were one of them. Lucky devils. ;)
Those naughty boys ;) Looks Really nice! The Crysis engine isn't something you should mess with. I hope you guys will make everything just as interactive as they say the real Crysis will be, with trees crumbling on any place you shoot...
Yes, we are currently using the pre-Alpha SDK for these screen captures. Bottom of each image says if it is a concept or an in-engine screen capture. As far as I know, these are the first in-engine shots seen publicly besides Crysis itself. Remember that these are just five of the eleven that we posted as part of our update on our site.
you crazy man..you crazy...
