The Crysis Beta on FilePlanet Page announces the release of the fifth batch of beta keys for the multiplayer beta test for Crysis, Crytek's upcoming first-person shooter. Unlike previous rounds of distribution, this batch of keys does not require a paid subscription, but is open to all registered FilePlanet users. Better hurry, word is: "Act now or miss out!"

Well multiplayer is almost exactly like BF2142. I hope the single player is better.

Hmmm...
I've been tempted but the graphics look like they may be above and beyond my computer. How well does it perform?

Its quite buggy. Flashing textures all over the place, floating weapons following around vehicles, massive menu lag.

Also while I agree that the new visual effects such as motion blur,HDR and depth of field look realistic. The constant blurs and focus loss seem to make me feel a little queasy if moving too fast.

Ah. Definitely no good for me then.
