well you can run it in a lower specs na pc pero of course don't expect it to look as good katulad ng sa high or ultra high settings... so probably even with a pentium 4 and an nvidia 7600GS you can play it in 800x600 and all minimum settings tapos more or less mga 22-28fps na siya... you can play it alright pero don't expect na super ganda siya ng todo...
the requirements is still daunting if you wanna see the game in its full form... kasi yung problem sa unang crysis you can't totally play it or install the game kapag sa unang scan ng crysis sa pc mo eh hindi na kaya... this time they changed that mas pinababa nila yung specs para mas marami makalaro... but yung drawback is nag suffer yung details...
pero the max settings which is the Enthusiasts settings looks great... smoother pero mas maganda parin yung details nung first Crysis... yung sa 1st Crysis naka all high ako and ultra high settings pero no anti-aliasing tapos 28-43 fps ako... sa warhead naka Enthusiasts ako lahat tapos kaya ng naka 2x or 4x anti-aliasing tapos my screen resolution is 1680x1050 tapos ang average ko is 28-40fps... so same as the first pero higher settings... but this game still eats up a lot of memory tulad nung una... hindi ako makapag multi-task like open yung ym, icq, torrent while playing kasi bumabagal siya...
and to answer you question kingthomas... i finished it in normal mode tapos ngayon i'm playing it in the next difficulty level... you can finish this game in like 5-6 hours if you're really good or if you're on easy mode... the AI ng aliens is better ngayon nakaka irita na sila mas magaling umilag lalo na kapag naka plasma rifle ka... (or maybe i'm poor at aiming... lol) the humans na AI however is still the same i guess pero paminsan kahit long range shots nakakatira sila... pero that's where you're maximum armor or cloak mode comes in... hehe! and you'll have more enemies na naka nano suit din... but all in all they're still pretty easy to kill kasi you have a great arsenal of weapons to choose from and you have your nano suit naman to help you... ay nakalimutan ko pala din banggitin meron automatic grenade launcher which is really really sweet... meron siyang i think 36 na grenades tapos may 6 or 8 na naka load bawat set...
