His speech was entitled The Making of Crysis and dives into many interesting tidbits. So go give the wrap-up a look over...
The interface was the most difficult part of the nano suit, Yerli continued, taking the team some 30 iterations across 16 to 18 months. The point Im trying to make here is: you have to keep on iterating in order to realize your dream, he stressed.

Eurogamer Video Feature[ Comment ] 15:15 PST | -1313-Evil_Homer | Print News | Category: CrysisEurogamer has a great feature for us this week as they highlight our beloved game Crysis in a video piece that is a must see. They go behind the scenes and give us a great insight on what goes on over at Crytek. Go give it a watch...
The good guys at Crytek have released a killer video tutorial for all you multiplayer out there doing battle in the Power Struggle mode. This is well worth the check out...
Now that many of you have familiarized themselves with the basic mission criteria of our PowerStruggle mode, it is about time to learn how to control the battlefield in order to lead your team to victory and glory.
Thus we would like to introduce you to our official PowerStruggle Advanced Tutorial Video. Visualized by our intense ingame graphic this video offers a whole bandwidth of advanced combat tactics and also features different aspects of how you successfully accomplish your mission together with your team.
Explaining the most suitable weaponry for each combat situation and talking about team work and communication amongst each other are just a few of the topics this tutorial offers to you.
I'm sure many of you have been waiting for us to release our first bit of media so you can see what we're all about. We now have a bit of content to reveal and more will come in the future. The way these media updates will work is every month almost at the beginning of the month we'll make our update with screenshots, ideas etc. that we have come up with over the previous 4 weeks. So without any further adeu here is the December Media Update.
All these models are by one of our modelers, Trix3. These models are not skinned, and therefore labeled WIP (work in progress).
Today I have for you the Chicken Gun and Buster, a crash test dummy, the silent star of the show! Additionally I've cut a WIP-Trailer for MythCrysis which shows the models and a little bit from the show, for those who don't know much about the show.
Also check out a little preview trailer video by clicking here.
