Does Crysis 3 Even Have Ultra Settings?

[Justice2K]

Hey all,

Just downloaded Crysis 3 on my first-ever gaming PC rig, and the highest option I get is "Very High" for graphics, etc. I see Ultra settings for Far Cry 4 and Shadow of Mordor.

Does it not go to Ultra, or is it my setup that doesn't even allow the option?

Thoughts?

... Why not actually change the settings?

Those presets are normally full of it anyways - just go in and change the settings manually to what your computer gives you good performance at.

Very high is the max setting in crysis 3

The label on max settings can be different from game to game. It is just a relative term used to describe the different level of settings. Just because it is labeled "very high" does not mean it is not every bit as good looking or demanding as another game with the label "Ultra". That is just what the dev's of that particular game labeled, them.
