The game needs more or less the same procedure as the original Crysis. See here for more info
The Installer is currently broken. Either use the Steam version or install in a Virtual Machine.
- HAARP
What do you need ?
- A fast CPU. We suggest minimally quad cores.
- A fast graphic card. Something like nVidia GTX2xx/4xx/5xx. The game will probably not work with AMD card
- A fast Linux distro. Something like Gentoo or Arch Linux. You can run it on some slower user friendly distro like Ubuntu, Fedora... but you will have low fps and it will be hard to play it.
- Some free time
