I think they should roll out Cryengine2 before any new VU's, as so much time and effort is being devoted to it.
There may be a VU before CE2, but why bother -
EU has been running pretty stably for past few months - and thats the main thing for me.
I hope it can run as well as the Gamebryo engine does on my aging Radeon 9800 Pro though and not require me to buy a whole new pc.
