It's still a good multiplayer game. I used to play with my students on special occations in 2016 (teacher in an academic highschool) because FC runs on any hardware evenwithout dedicated GPUs.
I always told them I'd let them go 15 mins earlier if someone has more kills than me in deathmatch. Only got beaten once
- headmelted 3y ago> because FC runs on any hardware evenwithout dedicated GPUs Twenty years of memes disagrees wholeheartedly
- rightbyte 3y agoYou are mixing it up with Crysis?
- headmelted 3y agoI absolutely am! Doh!
- bravetraveler 3y agoIt's fair, though - it was the original Crysis There was a time when it took fairly impressive hardware. I think this was one of the first popular 64bit games, upgrading into it
- lelanthran 3y ago> I think this was one of the first popular 64bit games, upgrading into it I don't think so. I remember struggles and patches necessary to get it run when I moved to a 64 bit machine a few years after it came out and I wanted to replay it.
- bravetraveler 3y agoA trip down memory lane :) The patch for Far Cry to become 64bit: https://www.anandtech.com/show/1677 https://www.anandtech.com/show/1677 They were technically beat by Chronicles of Riddick who shipped something on disk Looking back, this did little for performance. I suspect the memory limitations and introduction of SMP around that time to be a lot of warts we recall
- Tsiklon 3y agoI think I remember seeing someone run Crysis in software on a 128core AMD Epyc and get a decent frame rate.
