Crysis
Crysis is a game developed by Crytek, published by Electronic Arts for Microsoft Windows, and released in November 2007. It is the first game of a trilogy. A standalone expansion pack entitled Crysis Warhead was released on September 12, 2008, and follows the events of Crysis but from a different narrative perspective. Crysis, Crysis Warhead and a multiplayer expansion called Crysis Wars were re-released as a compilation pack titled Crysis Maximum Edition on May 5, 2009. At the time Crysis was released, and years thereafter, it has been praised for its milestones in graphical design (commensurate with high hardware requirements). The sequel Crysis 2 was released in March of 2011, and Crysis 3 is currently in development.

Issues
If you are experiencing crashes while changing graphical of controller options, try disabling your Anti-Virus software, if you have AVG or Norton 360, this is most likely the cause of the crashing.
Error 5024
Game will not launch at all and ends up with security error 5024. You are probably running Process Explorer so turn it off and game will launch OK.
If you're running Windows Vista/7 and cannot get a decent framerate playing the game in fullscreen at your monitor's native resolution, it is recommended that you play it in DirectX9 mode. For the Steam version, right-click the game -> Properties -> Set Launch Options, and type in "-dx9". On the retail version, create a shortcut on the desktop. Right click it and select Properties. Scroll the way to the end of the Target box, and add "-dx9". Then select OK.
