What ended up happening to CryTek?
A few years ago Eurogamer and others ran all these stories about how they were missing paychecks, sometimes for months at a time. That they had a business model based on founding studios for tax cuts. Expanding at a rapid rate, and having to sell off studios. There was some talk about how one of the brothers was a terrible manager. Projects getting cancelled. They were apparently getting sued by the guys behind Star Citizen. I remember they licensed off a build of CryEngine to Amazon. There was talk of them being investigated by the German government... then nothing.
I know they put out a VR game since then, and they had some PvPvE game... and there was the first FarCry remaster...
But, how are they doing financially?.. are their staff getting paid yet?.. did they end up getting investigated?.. are the Yerlies still in charge?
Crysis 2 & 3 already look good, like if you think Crysis 3 especially needs a remaster what is wrong with you? but i guess if Crytek wants to cash in & people keep buying remasters, it can't be helped.
Crysis 2 is not only the best Crysis game, it's also the most technically impressive one.
I recently replayed it and it's an incredible FPS. The only thing that holds it back is the AI which is very bad, but other than that it's all around superb.
You're sure about that? I had both on Xbox 360 and they were hardly "impressive" considering the years they were released in. PC versions should be a tad better than console versions but these two were made with consoles in mind, I don't think neither were better than Crysis 1 PC.
We really gonna encourage remasters this generation just for better reflections? I just wish Crytek could make something new instead.Given how much of Crysis 3 takes place in knee-deep water or around foliage it would be a great game to implement ray-tracing features in.

They scaled down, Cevat left company and his brother took over, they released Hunt Showdown that was success so it looks like that they are doing ok these days.
This is all I care about to be honest.Are all these remasters leading up to an announcement of Crysis 4?
Crysis 2 will also be much more raytracing friendly with all those glass buildings. :)
As a PC owner I agree with this. But to be fair the console only people missed out on the maxed out Crysis experience for far too long and these remasters are good for them.We really gonna encourage remasters this generation just for better reflections?

their GI solution is really gonna stand out as wellCrysis 2 will also be much more raytracing friendly with all those glass buildings. :)
Seems like these are being made with consoles in mind, where the versions of any crysis game are not ideal.Crysis 2 & 3 already look good, like if you think Crysis 3 especially needs a remaster what is wrong with you? but i guess if Crytek wants to cash in & people keep buying remasters, it can't be helped.
eh, just remaster the trilogy and then make Crysis 4 the technical tour-de-force. building off old code will always hold back these games and doing all three wouldn't be feasibleThese Crysis games should have been remakes with cutting edge tech, that would have been more suited to the brand's legacy
That's a shame. Warhead is great.I don't think Warhead got a console release and I assume all of these will be based on the old console versions. So yes, it will be ignored.
Remastering is done by Saber Interactive, Crytek themselves are doing new games.instead of remastering all the previous Crysis games I wish they would start development on Crysis 4...
Switch Pro exclusive :D2 and 3.
Lawd. Ok Crytek, if it means Crysis 4 then yeah I'll get them both on PC and Switch. You know if there is a Switch version.
