Write some reason why this engine is good. LET'S DO IT.

I think cry engine 3 is good you can include 32 players on huge map. Even OS and this engine can't do it.



So ha beat that!

It allows me to watch Baywatch in HD full episode.

Because I already own Halo: Custom Edition. I know how to mod it. I don't own any Cry Engine games, and I don't know how to mod them, so not only would I have to shell out money for something I have no interest in, I would have to acquire a new skillset as well.

Halo: Custom Edition is not the pinnacle of game engines, but it performs acceptably in a variety of areas.

Halo CE: Much memories, such nostalgia, amaze, so Halo, wow.
Cry Engine: Has no significance to me.

All my friends have Halo CE, so I can play with them online.
One of my friends has Crysis. I do not.

We already have Halo assets in CE, so we don't have to import anything.

Etc.

Change does not equate to good. Do you like Crysis? Hey, change that. Play something on an even newer engine instead. That would be change. If you want to keep playing Crysis instead of an even newer engine, that means you don't want changes. That's sad.

In CE, you can walk under the ocean, and you don't have to worry about drowning.

Increasing the player count for a halo game doesn't make it better. Halo's weapon set is very delicate, where some weapons are build for 1v1 combat, others are made to take down vehicles or clusters of enemy players, etc. When you add a ton of players the whole thing just becomes a mess. For example, playing tf2 with 24 players is very competitive, but with 32 players on dustbowl it ends up in a frustrating spam of rockets and grenades which eliminates all the fun for scouts and spies.

Cry engine 3 is a terrible platform for a game like halo.

We should like toats use like Source SDK, like totallies!

the reason nobody here wants anything to do with cry engine 3 is that we do not want to spend our time writing code to do stuff that we can easily do in the hek. the hek is made to allow people to quickly create assets. cry engine 3 is meant to create whole games, which requires a lot of coding experience. which almost no one here has. not to mention the amount of time it takes to do this, it takes teams of over 100 people years to make high quality games. and you idiots expect a handful of modders on a small website to make you a AAA quality port of halo ce. hell no it would be simple if the code was even compatible. but you cannot just port over the code as this is a completely different game engine so get you head out of your @$$es and do some damn research before flooding the forums with this crap.end of discussion

You shouldn't because this engine already has its player base and community. If you don't like it, you can simply leave.

I am guessing you have absolutely no idea how hurtful and insensitive this meme is to the family of the person pictured much less the idea as a whole. Shame on you.

Of course Cry Engine or Unreal are engines way stronger than BLAM! But you´re comparing a engine from 2001 with another one released the last year (2012-2013)

The Pipeline and workflow of the BLAM! Engine is excellent, I have used Cry and Unreal, and definetly I like more BLAM!

Material workflow (Or shaders) is fun and excelent, I like it more than UNREAL and Cry, Blam! only needs a better rendering engine and support more objects and polies, and well... the lightning and lightmaps of BLAM! Definetly sucks! But If you´re a genius you can get awesome results with 3ds max and blam!

The engine isn´t bad, it only needs few improvements! There´s no reason to move to CryEngine.

P.S. Sorry about my english

Hahahahah, you guys can keep arguing which engines are better while I sit here creating in the Unity engine.

I'm pretty sure CryEngine is superior to Unity in plenty of ways...

What was I gonna say?

Oh, yeah.

Here we go again. Another wave of threads about the glorious CryEngine.
Edited by Dumb AI on Dec 16, 2013 at 10:10 PM

True but people are all talk and no show. Unlike me.....

But seriously, this has to end guys. If you have nothing to show about Halo in the CryEngine, then stop talking about how superior it is.
Edited by TheChunkierBean on Dec 16, 2013 at 10:12 PM

That's a pretty arrogant statement there.

It's partially true, for the most part.

To be fair, he did do some showing.. So he's all talk and a little show.. Not like a cam show.. Or a broadway show.. Just.. Just a show..

A show's still better than a no-show... :3

-if he can get it to work in parallel with Halo Custom Edition, then maybe he's onto something?
(since we can have more control of the source code like CryEngine, but we can still keep Halo's community and assets -of course, if everything goes right)

so much circlejerk from people who never actually used cryengine. those that claim they had probably only got as far as the stock map, which is intentionally watered down, but I guess none of you could ever figure that out on your own.


are you really that dense to only be able to think of one (objectively wrong) reason for a poorly written argument
343 can't use cryengine because of licensing, and because they have their own engine already. besides, what makes halo unique in terms of gameplay? you run, you jump, you shoot, you die.

so explain why CMT is still only on their 3rd iteration after a few years for something that's "easy to do".

*ripping CMT models and moving them into unity

you can port just as you can port other things into halo, you're just not allowed to commercialize or sell the content.

didn't stop the star wars/mass effect guys.

honestly, you all post like you never went outside halomaps or actually did some research. half of what you spew is unintelligible garbage and the other half is halo fanaticism.

for those of you too shut-in to actually look up some simple facts,

cryengine 3 is free
it is not a modding tool for cryengine-based games
the stock map is intentionally watered down
everything is in a single editor and syncs with 3ds max's material editor in real-time
cryengine 3 has no gameplay because, big suprise, it isn't a game

quit making up emotionally-biased garbage against cryengine 3 since you all clearly have no idea what it even is
quit making these threads

We understand it's free. We already understood all the things that you listed.
It's just that things were perfectly fine and no one cared for CryEngine3 until these guys showed up trying to start some revolution or whatnot.
The point is that they're trying to move us, persuade this entire community to move over when we were happy left well enough alone.
There already has been so much development for this game that there is almost no reason why we should do as they say.

I am not ripping from CMT. I asked permission, and I was granted it. No "ripping" involved.

Sad face.

I think I speak for us all when I say...



We're not going to import this to Cry Engine.

Me?

You?

I?

Yourself?

True...

Indeed...

I think someone needs to make a script so when 'CryEngine' is in the title, it can't be posted as I've seen many other posts saying the same thing.

1. Some CryEngine version of Halo.

2. Community thinks poorly of the idea/mixed emotions of the idea.

Repeats.

All those requests are boring. Why are you complaining? Do you want Halo on Cryengine 3? Make it yourself.
This is Halo CE "CUSTOM EDITION" forum, no the complain/request forum.

here a cheaper improvement, get a standard 680, 770, or 780 card, or do what im doing, save up for 780m. lol of course im in college, so its not an option for desk

real men get a 790 at least
