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

00:00:06.200 --> 00:00:13.440
actually firing up crisis right now I just installed it just installed the

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

00:00:15.759 --> 00:00:24.039
MSI Cyclone GTX 460 1 gig I've got a 4

00:00:21.080 --> 00:00:30.080
GHz core i7 875k so that's an overclocked processor and then I've got

00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:32.239
4 gigs of uh Kingston blue series hyperx

00:00:30.080 --> 00:00:38.960
RAM with tightened up timings and then obviously I have the eight ocz Onyx

00:00:35.760 --> 00:00:42.360
series ssds running off in LSI RAID

00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:44.680
controller so oh shoot I think crisis is

00:00:42.360 --> 00:00:49.199
one of those games that takes like 300 years to launch the first time so um

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

00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:57.320
runs great On Core 2 Duo I bet it does

00:00:54.920 --> 00:01:00.519
but it runs even greater on better stuff here's a Core 2

00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:06.520
Duo right there check it out yo okay anyway

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

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

00:01:11.960 --> 00:01:17.720
we turn up the details uh click apply oh I better not

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

00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:25.079
this resolution Advanced H whatever gamer settings is fine no I don't want

00:01:23.360 --> 00:01:30.439
to change anything okay single player new game Delta start game okay so let's

00:01:29.119 --> 00:01:35.280
see how long it takes this is a cut screen we don't care about

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

00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:41.840
scene

00:01:42.520 --> 00:01:51.719
unbelievable If someone knows what button to press leave it in the comments

00:01:47.520 --> 00:01:54.920
there's psycho oh hi

00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:58.200
there now he's probably invisible or

00:01:54.920 --> 00:01:59.439
something no he's very visible now he

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

00:02:02.399 --> 00:02:05.079
running really

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

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

00:02:14.959 --> 00:02:19.920
and then you scroll to whatever maximum

00:02:18.160 --> 00:02:24.120
ability you want to do like I've I've actually tried like maximum speed and

00:02:22.200 --> 00:02:27.680
running and then switching to maximum strength in jumping but it doesn't

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

00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:39.519
is just end the cut scene and then we could actually show the level loading

00:02:36.040 --> 00:02:41.040
time okay he stomped some guy see he did

00:02:39.519 --> 00:02:45.239
his magical thing where he can run really fast and jump really far and then

00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:50.599
use maximum strength again see when are we going to actually

00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:52.640
get a game that comes with like uh like

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

00:02:54.560 --> 00:03:00.519
were just actually like a tank like the

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

00:03:03.200 --> 00:03:06.560
you can't actually take that much

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

00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:19.840
and apparently I should enable suit short cuts but I don't really care

00:03:17.799 --> 00:03:23.560
because the game was pretty easy I I didn't end up needing to do

00:03:21.440 --> 00:03:28.760
it I only played through the first one though I haven't actually played through

00:03:25.440 --> 00:03:31.439
Warhead so

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

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

00:03:38.040 --> 00:03:44.760
in fact my video card isn't working very hard right now either because this is

00:03:41.640 --> 00:03:47.760
running at like 640x 480 or whatever

00:03:44.760 --> 00:03:50.120
resolution cut scenes have been uh been

00:03:47.760 --> 00:03:55.920
displayed at for the last 20 years yay it's finally over Chopper went

00:03:53.640 --> 00:04:00.239
down I've never been that happy to see a chopper go

00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:05.560
down okay level loading there we go it's finally doing it the loading is in

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

00:04:08.200 --> 00:04:14.560
second sequential reads on uh this is substantially faster than what I've seen

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

00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:25.759
crisis level loading time on an 8 SSD

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

00:04:28.080 --> 00:04:34.199
the performance of it overall I would have like to use some higher end ssds

00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:37.919
but I don't have enough of them handy to really make that a

00:04:35.520 --> 00:04:41.479
reality so that was it thank you for checking out my video on how long it

00:04:39.400 --> 00:04:46.960
takes to launch crisis for the first time it's like too long and then how

00:04:45.280 --> 00:04:51.320
long it takes to load the first level can you shoot this guy what

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
