Rediscussed

Just to clear things up.

Do you remember completing Crysis then wanting to fight some more alien entities, as the last words were something along the lines as, we are going back to the island.

Well we have good news, Crysis 2 or Crysis Warhead has been announced. So it looks like our wishes to eliminate some more alien have come true.

“Maximum freedom, maximum explosions and maximum Psycho!”

The Crysis Warhead Tag-line.

Crysis Warhead

In Crysis Warhead you will follow the role of SGT. Psycho Sykes on the other side of the island, from where ‘Crysis one’ began. So it doesn’t look like you’ll be going on to the next part of the story just yet, but instead reenacting what happened to Psycho whilst Nomad wasn’t there.

Most probably the last, Crysis 3, will be both Nomad and Psycho which means…. Co-operative play?! Co-op is a great feature and should be introduced! Even if its in the last game.

Crysis Warhead is said to bring more weapons, vehicles, and multiplayer content. Whilst this is all great news and Crysis Warhead is coming up in September 2008!

We were looking forward to Patch v1.3 for Crysis, but as we found out they had to cancel the patch. This is the message that we had from the Crysis Team, explaining why they had to cancel patch 1.3.

As you know, it was a very hard decision for us to cancel Patch 1.3, but in the end it was important we shift our focus to some of the new and exciting things we are doing with Crysis Warhead. We have a lot of great content planned for the community and as we get closer to launch, we’ll be sharing a lot of details of what we are working on behind the scenes. This was the main reason behind the cancellation of the patch and while piracy was and continues to be an issue with Crysis, it did not have any role in our decision to cancel this patch.

We also want to make sure you all know that we are not ending our support of Crysis. We still have www.crymod.com, our official modding portal, up and running - a great meeting place not only for modders, but also for all who are interested in playing new, custom content. In addition we have plans to continue updating the CryENGINE2 documentation and video tutorials frequently.

And of course, your dedicated community management teams are still here and active in our official forums and fansite forums.

The important point is that we are not giving up on our current community and we hope that the announcement today pleased you. Stay tuned for more information on Crysis Warhead… there is a lot more to come!

Anyway Crysis Warhead will be ran on the well known CryEngine 2 with modifications and improvements. So we know what we’re in for when we ask what graphical capabilities and requirements the game has.

If you do not know how to change the colour of your crysis nickname already, read the short guide i wrote before click here .

Once you know how to change the colour of your crysis nickname / username then you are ready to permanently change the colour of your nickname.

  1. Firstly you need to find your profile folder which will be located at such a directory like:DRIVE:\Documents and Settings\[ XP USERNAME]\My Documents\My Games\Crysis\ProfilesSo in your “My Documents” folder under “My Games” -> “Crysis” -> “Profiles”

    (Before you question it what i mean by ‘permanent’, it does not mean you cant repeat these steps and change your game name ever again, it just means when entering the game you will not have to keep changing your name the manual way, your name will be changed automatically.)

  2. Right click the folder of that profile name you wish to change the name of, Rename it to a colour name e.g
  3. Rename the folder “Username” to “$8User$4Name”. In Crysis that would look something like UserName , see the crysis colour chart for a list of colour codes.
    crysis name change
  4. Then OPEN the folder and you should see profile.xml
  5. OPEN profile.XML in a text editor such as notepad.
  6. Replace:
    <Profile Name=”Username”/>With the profile name you chose to rename the folder in our case:
    <Profile Name=”$4User$8Name”/>
  7. Save The File!
  8. Launch Crysis and enter a multiplayer game you will see your name is already set as coloured! Smile

If you need anymore help comments are welcome.

Zombies in Assault Mod Crysis CO-OP

sandy dunes crysis mod co-op crysis co-op zombies

A while ago now an article was written about the Crysis coop mod not long ago an update with a video had been released containing ZOMBIES!

these zombies are WIP. this is just displaying the zombie behavior or character in game. the map and zombies will be in Assault Coop Crysis.

Here are a few image’s captured from the implementation of Korean zombies, running across the Sandy Dunes which i think actually looks like a great area to be placed in with a hundred zombies, not sure if this is just a test area for flameknight7 the developer. Assault Crysis COOP Mod looks to be coming together quite well.

I’m glad there re a lot of users looking forward to it.

Today i noticed that crysiseu.com one of the many big crysis community sites had created a section in their forums for far cry 2 and also advertising talk about crysis 2!?!.. already!

I wonder if this is because people(crysis fans) are bored of crysis already? So the communities will have to keep alive by introducing sub categories in their websites, fighting for survival.

Did you know?

I forgot to mention this but if you didn’t know already you can change your Crysis Online name to different colours for your allies and maybe enemies to see (not sure to much about enemies).

Here is an image of the crysis font colours that you can use for online. Right click it save as if you want to keep it as a reference.

See below how to use them.

Crysis colour codes

To use the colour codes in your Crysis name

An example to change the colour of your name to Orange and Red would be. “name $8Your$4NameHere”

In game it would appear something like this “YourNameHere” Which will obviously make your online name stand out among the others.

Clans etc.. find this very useful when having matches. If you want to view your own name don’t forget get into a vehicle and go third person and hit f3!

Colour codes list

Here a list of possible colors within the font…

  • $0 Black
  • $1 White
  • $2 Blue
  • $3 Green
  • $4 Red
  • $5 Cyan
  • $6 Yellow
  • $7 Magenta
  • $8 Orange

Hope this helps!

Quick Jump: Why wasn’t there Co-op? / The Co-op Mod / The Co-op Mod Trailer

crysis co-op play mod

Where is Crysis Coop mode?!

The 1 thing we all might liked to have seen in crysis is an option to be able to play in co-op mode with at least one friend, a few of games do offer coop play like e.g gears of war, halo and lots of new genre games. Apparently we didn’t get to see this in crysis because of when the group testing was over they found that most people like to play the power struggle mode, which obviously they hoped would hold people’s attention because they didn’t include any other play modes. Although power struggle is quite nice, i and many other people would like to have seen crysis co-op.

Assault Crysis co-op mod ” Fight as One “

“Assault coop” and “Modders in Kombat” Crysis co-op mod ” Fight as One ” have joined forces and are proud to bring you the sequel to the old mod from far cry.

I was reading over at the mod database about this thrilling mod for crysis and how it will change the way we play crysis. Although the author was creating his own levels and maps for us to fight through playing together. It seems like a big step for a coop mod for crysis. Here is the crysis mod for coop updates page:

http://www.moddb.com/mods/7189/assault-coop-crysis

The Author quoted:

I definitely want to make the zombies like “I Am Legend”. Since there is a night and day cycle system in crysis, why not make the players fear the darkness? XD Another gamemode I was planning was “survival roleplay”. The goal is that you get to roam around in a huge map(city, village, forest, etc.) and do objectives like taking over a base, saving people, assassinations. I just want to see how to the flowgraph can make this happen :D

The mod sounds good it can also be integrated with the current crysis campaign missions so we can play through the whole game together, i wonder how many people you could have in a co-op multiplayer!

Just two people would be fine for most, a squad would be even cooler.

I think people will be looking forward to helping each other complete parts of the game, it does also say that once you have died you will stay dead but their will be tools to help revive a team mate.

Fight as One co-op Trailer


Glad to spot this co-op mod, keep your eyes peeled on this one!
