StingingVelvet says he might write a Detailed Report for this one... I don't know if it's worth the trouble mate, I've given up and even finished it in 4:3 :oops: (hurray for nvidia's 'fixed aspect ratio' thingy). Anyway, here's some general stuff I posted on the official forum a while back : http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=6521

And here's a 5:4-to-'classic TH' comparison to go with the rest, I didn't bother posting these over there :




Feel free to use or ignore all this crap. I'm just sharing unused material in case it may save you some trouble... not trying to scare you, honest :lol:

That's pretty lame. It looks like a neat game... but try as i may, I just cun't stand 4:3 (or 5:4) gaming anymore.. :(

HOlding out some hope that someone can come up with a fix.. but it does;t seem too popular a game, so I don't expect one.

But thanks for the info.

I don't remember the tech demo looking that horrible... I'll have to boot it again and see.

Sucks though... still looks like a great game to me though.

The tech demo may seem ok thanks to the "spectator" point of view. It's definitely Vert- too, though, and then again you have to manually force the aspect ratio or everything stretches. Cryostasis is totally worth playing even in 4:3 anyway - clunky shooting but great atmosphere, unique story-telling, and such an insane amount of shaders with none of the usual next-gen bling-bling ! (By the way, there are absolutely no PhysX fluids in the full game... despite the tech demo being choke-full of 'em.) :?

This is a horrible game.


Nothing of value was lost.

An awful shooter, maybe - but a truly awesome survival horror/adventure game... and graphics stress test :lol:
The ending levels are just pure :shock: :shock:

In case anyone wondered, the retail US version is Vert- as well. Haven't got a weapon yet, but I am sure that is the same as well.

It's not so Vert- I am bothered by it though... FOV seems ok... but again, no weapon yet.

This is unfortunate, I have been waiting for this game for about 3 years now. :(
