I will be baffled if what that one fellow said is true and this is based off CryEngine2 because, honestly, it doesn't look anywhere near as good as Crysis (or Warhead for that matter). It doesn't look bad by any means and I know it's gonna be episodic and downloadable so size is a factor but.. If you're gonna have UE3.5 or CryEngine2 then you might as well show us all that power under the hood is being put to good use.
I want dynamic damage... ripped clothing, blood and bruises and from where you actually punched them. Like the upcoming Dead Island, Splatterhouse and Wolverine:Origins. Dynamic damage is something that screams next-gen and detail... I love it and would love to see more of it implemented now that we have the power... and it seems all the Devs out there feel the same way..
