european download. But the DR patch is only for Game Agent downloads. Which sucks for me.

This patch works only with US version of the game, published by Aspyr. You won't be able to use it with any other versions!!!

And please note, this patch is essential only for High End NVIDIA cards!!! On other systems it can cause slowdowns and other technical issues.

Patch for other versions is comming.

The Game can't go any worser. I got a dual core @ 3.8 , 2x ATi radeon 4870 und 4 gig of ram and i got awsome 12-25 fps on 1280x1024 and everything on set on high.

So can you confirm this is not the patch that was rumored to be increasing performance on ATi cards?

So let me get this straight...

First you release a patch for American versions only.

Then the patch adds Physx that is for HIGH END Nvidia cards ONLY?!

I have a quad core rig at 3.6ghz per core overclocked, 2 x 4870 video cards, AND A AGEIA PPU! Game runs at about 10 FPS. Ive got Crossfire for graphics, and 4870's at that! And a seperate Physx processor and the game runs like it does????

I can run Crysis at 40+ FPS at MAX settings...this game at 10 FPS? COMPLETE JOKE!

I upgraded my system from a single Nvidia 9600GT 512MB WITHOUT THE AGEIA PPU that could run the tech demo at max settings WITH Physx enable and I got 20 FPS...

Explain to me how a Crossfire ATi 4870 rig with a Ageia PPU - WHICH BY THE WAY - has been proven to be FASTER in processing Physx than a 9600GT being used as a stand alone Physx processor CAN'T RUN THE GAME FASTER THAN USING A SINGLE 9600GT THAT WAS BEING USED FOR GRAPHICS AND PHYSX PROCESSING?!

I mean, is this for real? I feel like this is some big internal joke by 1C! IT HAS TO BE! THATS THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK OF THAT MAKES EVEN REMOTE SENSE!

AndroidVageta, your performance is that bad because you have an ATI-based system and this game is "sponsored" by Nvidia. This game is basically a tool for Nvidia to get new costumers by making the game run like s*** on ATI cards and making it look like it'll only run well on Nvidia ones (what's funny is that even on Nvidia cards the game runs like crap). Hell, even that EVGA exclusivity agreement for the patch gives it away, EVGA is one of Nvidia's biggest partners. 1C deciced to screw it's costumers as long as Nvidia fills their pockets.
So basically, this game is a scam and we were all fooled.

Oh I understand that...but you see I also have a Ageia PPU which was made to process just Physx...so unless it truly is made to run like crap with ATi cards and Ageia PPU's then there is no reason the game should run like it does...its truly sad...pathetic...

You might have an Ageia PPU but ever since Nvidia bought Ageia, those initial cards stopped working because Nvidia began developing the drivers to work with their graphic cards, so your original Ageia card is pretty much useless now. Like I said, it's all part of the scam to get Nvidia more costumers

Incorrect...drivers still work for the Ageia card...even the new drivers...I play every other Physx enabled game fine...GRAW2, Mirrors Edge, Crazy Machines 2...the Ageia PPU isn't the problem with Cryostasis.

1C is the problem with Cryostasis...

so are we acturally gonna get a patch to acturally work? ... or is what is released is all were gonna get?

or is there a way to manually extract the files from the patch executable into where they need to go?
