Yeah, the C4 is apparently a problem with the rendering. Same with the black handles. It's a new program (vray i think) so Hush is just getting used to using it and well, making it work properly :P

It's good, but rather a low res picture and you can't see the full detail.

Yeah, it's being re-written atm. Not majorly though, just tweaked so that it's more realistic and flows as a game better.

Ignorance is indeed, bliss. However, may I ask you - if current affairs are a no-go area, why are games such as CoD4 and Counterstrike, and mods like Insugency so popular, yet tackle modern day issues - more modern than this? There are innocent and military lives being lost daily in the middle east - yet people still continue to play them without such a thought or a whim.
Anything anyone does will always offend someone. Deal with it. What is not correct is blantant ignorance, which is something that I am yet to see from this team. It has been carefully planned, delicately handled, and maturely developed, meaning that it has take the best route possible.

And as for attacking him for making high brow remarks? Really isn't a constructive thing to do. If you have a problem with it, then fine, but don't attack someone who is creating a intelligent and constructive rebuttal.

Ok, sounds cool :) Feel free to pop across to our forums if you want and give direct WIP advice. Sounds like a fun dissertation!

2300 polys for the whole thing.

Thanks for the comments on all of the weapons, Passed on to the modellers so will see what comes back :) I know that some aren't entirely happy with their work, and your guideance may give way to small tinkering :P
Again, thanks for the feedback!

Heh - not just cos of that ;) It was the one that clinched it though. The extra support and modders out there really. Before in the HL2 engine we had nothing but concept. Now we have models and progress being made :D
The storyline fits the CE2 better aswell.

Haha, True - I have thought about it but other people seem to do it better :D Might do one after Orbis - not sure though :P
It was partly drawn from SG aswell as the Egypt underworld - it's fun being god of the dead - and handy (Seen in the Mummy 3 :P)

Excellent, will be getting it if it has multiplayer! One thing that stopped me from getting it :)

heh :D Why did you get rid of crysis in the first place? tsk! :P

Thanks! Pretty much exactly why we chose it. I'm certainly very interested to see how some of the maps turn out - a combination of the amazing art work, detailed storyline (inhouse) and possibilities of the cry engine should provide some interesting results.

For the Lisbon map, there's been the suggestion of making it all breakable and hiding a nuke somewhere. While it can be done, I thin people's computers might complain!

And how exactly, would you classify failure? They have extensive primary research, accurate and detailed weapon models, drive and team to complete further work.

If anyone has failed dear, it is you.

Please comment people!

Arguably, yes, and this is 1 thing that was taken into consideration. However, crysis does not demand an uber PC on low/medium settings. One thing that compensated the CE2 requirements, was that it will be a while before we release, by which time, the general hardware standards of people will have improved, and may have upgraded to better systems.

If I had it my way, we would be developing on both engines, however people weren't willing to help dev on the Source engine, so unfortunately, it had to be axed.

Anyone interested in making maps for a mod? Will this style of landscapes:
European forest
Artic
Lisbon - historic/modern city mix
Indonesia - Crysis Jungle basically

See my profile for more info.

The story should be alot better with the CryEngine, allowing for more detailed cut scenes :D

If it doesn't have a giant, walking, firebreathing robot of margret thatcher, I'm not playing it.

:D

It looks good, looking forward to it. Makes a change with a nice change of setting.

Thanks :)

Recent reform gone round, see the news for more details.

Currently it's just sleeping. There's been alot of people jump ship, so we haven't had the commitment we needed. Soon I'll be making another push for more mappers and moddelers, as this is what we really need.

Does this mod affect the normal files, or can it be installed without any side effects?

Over the next few weeks the storyline will be under review, and we will probably either cut or tweak parts of it. Thank you for your feedback, we will hopefully be releasing a full storyline, which is less confusing and with more detail on how it will link into maps etc.

I can understand where you are coming from. Certainly it will be taken into consideration. I guess we were just trying to show how desperate things had come, and how old rules were out the window.

In light of this, the storyline will probably be tweaked and polished towards the end, however atm we are concentrating on the weapons and maps, as this is more important as to actually playing the mod. Things will be cut and edited along the way.

If you do want to help more, and get your comments aired, you're more than welcome on the forum :)

Thanks for the feedback.

Haha, thanks :D Have you looked at the full sized version on the website? Would be better for a Wallpaper.

Please keep commenting, It's nice to get feedback!

Because the EU isn't the same as the UE, there are different countries and they are for war, rather than just trading/peace time.

I understand that we have not included every country in the world, we wanted base the storyline around the major players in the political spectrum. As much as Canada and South Korea my have an influence, they don't in this scenario.

For practical reasons we haven't included every country with its own storyline.

There is more than just concept art, it's just that it's not fully polished yet. Hopefull over the next few days it will come together and I'll be able to put it up - I just don't see the point in showing you something that is half finished.

The idea behind the storyline was to keep it politically viable and within the realms of reality, but with some embelishment to make it more interesting. I never said it was 100% accurate. Besides, people's actions can't be predicted - people always said hitler wouldn't invade poland due to appeasment, and well....look where that got them.

Russia are keeping quiet so that they can keep the oil for when they need it, and let the US keep using their supplies and wasting it thinking it's all that is left.

I wanted to have a interesting yet relavent storyline - intertwinning fiction and reality to create a balanced mod.
