1
00:00:00,359 --> 00:00:08,360
one viewer had asked for uh crisis level loading times on the 8 SSD array so I'm

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:13,440
actually firing up crisis right now I just installed it just installed the

3
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:21,080
patch so this is a first boot for the game on this machine so I'm running the

4
00:00:15,759 --> 00:00:24,039
MSI Cyclone GTX 460 1 gig I've got a 4

5
00:00:21,080 --> 00:00:30,080
GHz core i7 875k so that's an overclocked processor and then I've got

6
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:32,239
4 gigs of uh Kingston blue series hyperx

7
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:38,960
RAM with tightened up timings and then obviously I have the eight ocz Onyx

8
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:42,360
series ssds running off in LSI RAID

9
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:44,680
controller so oh shoot I think crisis is

10
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:49,199
one of those games that takes like 300 years to launch the first time so um

11
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:54,920
well that'll be my evidence that this is indeed the first time I'm launching it o

12
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:57,320
runs great On Core 2 Duo I bet it does

13
00:00:54,920 --> 00:01:00,519
but it runs even greater on better stuff here's a Core 2

14
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:06,520
Duo right there check it out yo okay anyway

15
00:01:04,439 --> 00:01:10,640
so let's go ahead and go into options configure the game a little bit cuz you

16
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:13,400
know what's the point of playing crisis if you're not going to play it right so

17
00:01:11,960 --> 00:01:17,720
we turn up the details uh click apply oh I better not

18
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:21,560
have to reboot the game or anything for any of this okay yeah I want to keep

19
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:25,079
this resolution Advanced H whatever gamer settings is fine no I don't want

20
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:30,439
to change anything okay single player new game Delta start game okay so let's

21
00:01:29,119 --> 00:01:35,280
see how long it takes this is a cut screen we don't care about

22
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:41,840
this oh you got to be kid you got to be kidding me I can't skip the cut SC cut

23
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,840
scene

24
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:51,719
unbelievable If someone knows what button to press leave it in the comments

25
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:54,920
there's psycho oh hi

26
00:01:51,719 --> 00:01:58,200
there now he's probably invisible or

27
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:59,439
something no he's very visible now he

28
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:05,079
has a mask though I don't know how the mask got on his face okay now he's

29
00:02:02,399 --> 00:02:05,079
running really

30
00:02:05,479 --> 00:02:12,640
fast here's what I can't figure out how do they run fast and jump high cuz uh I

31
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:18,160
I've tried to do it several times like you know how you do the the middle click

32
00:02:14,959 --> 00:02:19,920
and then you scroll to whatever maximum

33
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:24,120
ability you want to do like I've I've actually tried like maximum speed and

34
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:27,680
running and then switching to maximum strength in jumping but it doesn't

35
00:02:25,640 --> 00:02:32,760
actually work or maybe I can't get the timing down but I really wish I could do

36
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:39,519
is just end the cut scene and then we could actually show the level loading

37
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:41,040
time okay he stomped some guy see he did

38
00:02:39,519 --> 00:02:45,239
his magical thing where he can run really fast and jump really far and then

39
00:02:42,599 --> 00:02:50,599
use maximum strength again see when are we going to actually

40
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:52,640
get a game that comes with like uh like

41
00:02:50,599 --> 00:02:58,120
realistic gameplay footage like I it'd be kind of fun to play this game if you

42
00:02:54,560 --> 00:03:00,519
were just actually like a tank like the

43
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:06,560
way he is where he's just riding on top of a truck and he's getting pummeled but

44
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,560
you can't actually take that much

45
00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:15,519
abuse one of my co-workers is giving me a hard time about how I can't do that

46
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:19,840
and apparently I should enable suit short cuts but I don't really care

47
00:03:17,799 --> 00:03:23,560
because the game was pretty easy I I didn't end up needing to do

48
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:28,760
it I only played through the first one though I haven't actually played through

49
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:31,439
Warhead so

50
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:36,239
um yeah I have no idea maybe Warhead is more difficult see my ssds aren't work

51
00:03:34,640 --> 00:03:39,799
very working very hard right now because there's not a whole lot of loading to do

52
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:44,760
in fact my video card isn't working very hard right now either because this is

53
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:47,760
running at like 640x 480 or whatever

54
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:50,120
resolution cut scenes have been uh been

55
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:55,920
displayed at for the last 20 years yay it's finally over Chopper went

56
00:03:53,640 --> 00:04:00,239
down I've never been that happy to see a chopper go

57
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:05,560
down okay level loading there we go it's finally doing it the loading is in

58
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:10,439
progress so this is that that raid array that I can see about H 700 megabytes per

59
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:14,560
second sequential reads on uh this is substantially faster than what I've seen

60
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:23,199
in the past although I'm not sure how impressive it is but there you have it

61
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:25,759
crisis level loading time on an 8 SSD

62
00:04:23,199 --> 00:04:29,520
array uh like I said in the video about the array I wasn't all that happy with

63
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:34,199
the performance of it overall I would have like to use some higher end ssds

64
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:37,919
but I don't have enough of them handy to really make that a

65
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:41,479
reality so that was it thank you for checking out my video on how long it

66
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:46,960
takes to launch crisis for the first time it's like too long and then how

67
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:51,320
long it takes to load the first level can you shoot this guy what

68
00:04:49,039 --> 00:04:59,680
happens oh you can't shoot him that's too bad okay don't forget to subscribe
