The engine upgrade means better performance (but CryEngine is still notoriously heavy, far from the most optimized engine) and Crytek’s shiny new renderer, which should either be DX12 or Vulkan or perhaps both. Expect to see the original 2007 models/assets for the most part.

Usually only full fledged remakes do, but Crytek calls this a remaster so this is presumably more of a port. You all probably know this already, but it is important to note since the majority of remasters don’t use a newer engine. If the remaster were to resurrect Crysis Wars multiplayer in its full glory, that would be a dream come true.

But typical gamers don’t know of CryServ and wouldn’t want to install a 3rd party application to play a 12 year old multiplayer game (although they should!). Thankfully CryServ exists to resurrect Crysis Wars, the multiplayer component of Crysis Warhead which is the sequel to Crysis, and Crysis Wars is just a slightly better, more content rich version of Crysis multiplayer. Multiplayer: Crysis multiplayer died with GameSpy.

Windowed mode avoids this and Borderless Gaming works with Crysis, but fullscreen gaming has some very obvious benefits like making the game harder to interrupt, reducing input lag, etc. It also has no refresh rate selector or console command (cvar), so all of you with high refresh rate displays, especially at 2560 x 1440 and above, will probably be stuck at 24 Hz/24 FPS in Crysis if you try to run it in fullscreen mode. It works under 32-bit, but then you’ll get out of memory crashes at large resolutions such as UHD.

As a result, nobody is really going to maintain more than 60-80 FPS in Crysis at max settings, with occasional dips below that even. But okay, neither can any other 2007 game really, so what’s the big deal? Well, no other game from that era is as CPU bottlenecked as Crysis. Little did they know silicon doesn’t really allow for such clock speeds, so processors became more parallel instead which is the much more efficient way to improve CPU power, and Crysis fails to utilize all this modern day CPU parallelism. And what did Crytek in 2006-2007 think was the future of hardware? They thought CPUs would evolve to mostly prioritize clock speeds, so they were expecting > 6 GHz Intel Pentium processors or maybe Core 2 DUOs. Performance: Crysis is one of few games in history that was released with graphics settings meant for future hardware.Stability: It is unstable at large resolutions such as UHD or 4k and beyond, at least on some configurations.However, a remaster, if done properly, would be very helpful for various reasons, stated below.
