It seems like it's just one of those games you need a beefy machine for. The carrot that dangles to convince you to upgrade (amongst other things).

I upgraded my machine to be able to play Crysis maxed out...this game still plays like doo doo most the time...FAIL!

What rig do you have?

Mine is:

Core i7 920 @ stock
EVGA GTX 295
Asus P6T Deluxe
6GB Corsair DDR3 1866MHz
Coolermaster RPPro 1000W
Cooermaster V8

I can get Crysis at 1080p AA 16xQ for average 45fps. there's no need for 16xQ at all, though, so I normally play at 4x or 8x depending on my mood lol.

I bought polish (PL - Poland) version of Cryostasis and I can't install any patch - tried us, uk and every other and it says "There is no supported version of Cryostasis installed on your computer".

Is there somebody who managed to install patch on this version of retail copy [on the box it says ENG (English), HU (Hungarian), PL (Polish)]?

Maybe someone export their registry entry of Cryo and post it? maybe game thinks language doesn't match...

original isn't patched version for sure, i don't have water gun and other effects (more sparkles, ice from hitting enemies etc. ) which i saw in demo

and the funniest thing is that this 1gb demo with advanced physx effects runs better when fighting than this non patched full version, it have more sparkles and ice shards but fps drops only to 20, where on my retail copy fps drops to about 12 :/

For those with the legacy PhysX hardware, make sure you have an older version of the drivers installed (and that the newer ones aren't) or the hardware acceleration doesn't work. This game uses physx engine version 2.7.3. The newer (9 series) drivers break the legacy cards for seemingly everything.
