You still have the most overly tesselated concrete walls I have ever seen in a video game. The point still stands.
That was already debunked by Crytek themselves. In wireframe mode, there was no culling which meant you could see everything that was tessellated, including the ocean. Only uninformed people perpetuate the idea that Crysis 2 was "over tessellated."
Crysis 2 tessellation implementation is actually one of the best in any game..

I have no assertion but the written words by you, I make no assumptions at what you may *really* mean or anything in between, so assertion is on you cowboy.
As it may be you have asserted yourself into trolldom.
That, frankly, was the only objective, cause I'd just hate for new readerships to come read your gospel and take it as truth.
You're kind of the bibel guy that just wont go away. Later.
Overly tessellated according to who? AMD, who's anemic tessellation units couldn't handle it at the time? The whole point of tessellation as I recall was to increase detail with thousands of tiny triangles rather than having to use different textures for LOD.
In Crysis 2, the concrete barriers became more tessellated the closer to you were to them, and less the further you were away. It worked exactly as it should have.
Anyway, this has been covered ad nauseam on these forums and many others. Stop trying to derail this thread and do your own research if you want to know the truth..
That's not true. I played it on Ultra when the patch came out, and stayed near 60 FPS. That video was shown on an AMD card, Nvidia cards at the time could. AMD cards, not long after, could play the game fine as well, but they had to adjust how much tessellation was used with in the CCC.even with highend cards. c2 wasnt playable on ultra because of overtesslation.

you are basically saying its ok to take a performancehit as long as amd takes the worse performance hit. pure ignorance

I'm just going to ignore your posts from now one unless you have some relevant input.
