Re: Ice Age Begins: Cryostasis Tech Demo

Am already on the 7th Level. The game is brilliant. It's a mash between Condemned Criminal Origins & Bioshock. The game is badly optimised for now. The spook factor is pretty good. The sound is amazing with rich detail given to every aspect. Can't wait for the NA version to come out & this game to be properly optimised.

Review:- Source: IGN: Cryostasis: Sleep of Reason Review
There's a fine balance required of the in media res approach to story telling and Cryostasis misses the mark by holding on to the ambiguity far too long. We played the game for several hours and still can't really tell you what it's all about. We do know that the player starts on a massive Russian icebreaker that has struck a glacier and has been stranded for a long time. There are flashbacks of a dogsled accident right at the start, and eventually you'll even start to relive events from the ship's past. There's friction in the chain of command, flooding disaster, a spreading sickness and an assault by some type of ice mutants. The opening even throws in a little Russian fairytale about a tribe that vanished into the forest and were transformed into, well, into something.
At first, the quirky nature of the story, and even of the story-telling, are captivating and encourage the player to dig deeper into the mystery and start putting the pieces together. The trouble is that things don't really come together soon enough to keep the mystery interesting. Even after playing for several hours, we're no closer to figuring out what's going on. We've heard that the ultimate resolution manages to tie most of the elements together in a neat little package, but since we hit a massive no-clip bug about two-thirds of the way in, whether the ending is great or not is kind of a moot point. In any case, the game needed to have solved at least a few of the mysteries before we gave up on it.

The one thing that does manage to keep you going is that many of the flashbacks are interactive and serve to provide a background to the disaster and even give you a chance to save members of the crew from their horrible fate, or at least postpone it. Scattered throughout the ship are dead crewmen whose red, pulsing hearts indicate an opportunity to intervene in the past and save their lives. Simply activate these corpses to be taken back in time to stop flooding, repair the ships systems, or kill mutants. In all the cases, you'll have to succeed at these past life moments in order to progress to the next area of the ship. The puzzles aren't at all hard but if you fail you'll have to retry them until you get it right. ........

Re: Cryostatis: The Sleep of Reason

this is a good game but u need a god rig to play it in max settings
 
Re: Cryostatis: The Sleep of Reason

I completed this game when it was initially released in the Russian version. Awesome game. Butchered my rig but was playable enough to get through the game. The final level lagged like hell.
 
Re: Cryostatis: The Sleep of Reason

what is the minimum cpu and gpu requirements to play at max resolution and settings without AA.

Is my rig okay?
 
Re: Cryostatis: The Sleep of Reason

Frankly, after playing Dead Space, this became a big turnoff for me mainly because of the storyline and the graphics.

They could have made this game really nice, but somewhere it has just not lived up to the hype.

It wasn't hyped in the first place. It was merely a game released from a not so popular game developer. So it was a pretty commendable effort on their part.

@Rite: It would work on your system. Disable PhysX if you have to & also what resolution are you planning to play on?
 
Re: Cryostatis: The Sleep of Reason

i would prefer 1920x1080 tho can scale down as low aw 1440x900 if required
 
Re: Cryostatis: The Sleep of Reason

Can't say in that case. I used to play @1280x1024 & it still gave lagged in several areas. But you have a better processor, so I suppose it should pull through. Scale it down to 1680x1050 if you can.
 
Download Cryostasis PC Game for free ... Legit

Taken from this thread on [H]: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1533627

I got no more keys left on evga site but on the second page of the above thread on H, there are a lot of keys ... try any of those keys on the nvidia site and if it works, you will see 0 $ and then have to download a small download manager and then the full game ( 3 gb ).

regarding registration on nvidia website, use a US pincode.

Worked for me :ohyeah:
