It ticked so many potential boxes, but just ended up being boring for me. It didn't have the depth or 'RPGness' to it like the Fallout series, but was quite bland as an FPS as well. Online co-op seemed riddled with issues as well for the PC version. Probably better on the consoles though.

Hmmm - not sure about that. Even simple things like the ground textures are much better and sharper defined than the likes of Battlefield BC2. The latest Medal of Honour has some decent scenery too - but with Crysis, we're talking 2007 and it still outshines a lot of current stuff.
The...
I'm probably about 51/49% in favour of rush mode, I reckon - lol. I do prefer it, but the map choice makes a massive difference to the way the round is played. Some maps just don't work properly imo in rush mode, whereas the likes of Port Valdez and Arica Harbour to name but two, are just pure...
The lack of a decent save facility is beginning to grate on my nerves now. Pisses me off slightly when you get nailed and have to traverse 8kms or so of hostile road, just to get back to where you were. Surely there's a better way than that? :S

I know I sound like a broken record with this, but if anyone is remotely interested in a decent RTS and have the hardware to make it look fluffy - then buy Company of Heroes. Perfection, in World War II form....

Thread revamp!
Just about got a machine spec worthy of Crysis with all the bells and whistles on. Strangely, there's no default resolution choice for 1920x1200, so I'll have to look into that. Instead, I'm currently rolling slightly lower on 1680x1050 - but fcuk me! Maxed with everything set to...
Now, now sailor-boy! ;)
Probably down to habit more than anything. The first game I got for the PC was Aces of the Pacific back in '92 and the flying controls defaulted to the arrow keys. Then less than a year later when the Doom demo came out, they were either the same or lads and I at uni...
You map a key to the grenade choice - mine's set to Page Dn as I'm an old skool arrow keys player - none of this AWSD key malarky! ;) When you throw a pack of C4 it sticks to whatever it hits and you can throw multiple ones onto a target. Walk away and hold down the same key (again, Page Dn for...
Anyone know the script with collapsible buildings? Being the recent UAV wh0re that I am, does the target building have a set number of hit points before collapse? Or do you have to remove sections of the building for it to structurally collapse?

For that money - I'd definitely get the Brothers in Arms pack instead. I played and completed all three games in the series and throught they were brilliant. :)

Same here. According to the stats, I'm 5% through it with about 7 hours of game time. They really have cherry-picked good features from many games. Like you mention with Farcry 2 - especially with that little warning 'radar' in the top left corner that tells you when you're near a pickup...
That King Arthur is a good Total War Medieval/Rome clone. Loads of 'backroom' options to it like providing 'ladies in waiting' for your Knights of the Round Table - lol.

Lol - just had a bit of a UAV killing fest on vanilla BC2. Managed a 20/3 final score with 16 of those kills being down to my UAV. Don't those guys ever look up? :S ;)
