I'd scan a big article I have on it, but I'm using the PS3 browser.

 

Looks great though, I'll be getting it ASAP!!!

 

 

 

Oh, nice, you've found some links!

Official Far Cry 2 Thread

 

 

The game will be entirely open-ended and non-linear. Instead of using individual maps, the game will take place in a sprawling nondescript land in Africa, with terrain ranging from Savannah to jungle[1], similar to those seen in Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction, Just Cause and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl. The gameplay area will be around 50 km2. Some members of the Ubisoft Montreal team spent 2 weeks in several locations in Africa filming and photographing native wildlife. The team will use the animal footage and environment photos to create an extremely realistic environment.

I was a little dubious at first, given that Crytek has nothing to do with this, but it's definitely shaping up to be an awesome game.

 

 

 

Actually, after watching the tech demo, it almost reminds me of Oblivion. icon14.gif

I like the tech demo where they showed off the fire effects, the way the dry grass will catch and depending on the wind will spread correctly and how you could use it to your advantage.

That really freaked me out bored.gif , it proves how ahead of the current time the game's gonna be, another thing i loved was the compass and the map, no one and absolutely nothing will tell you where to go, you actually have to guide yourself through 50 kilometers of terrain with those two items wow.gif

Map editor looks sick. I hope you'll be able to place enemies and stuff so that you can create new challenges and stuff.

 

EDIT: Nevermind saw the other thread about the Map Editor

New map editor video:

http://uk.gamespot.com/pc/action/farcry2/video/6199377/far-cry-2-official-movie-361?hd=1

 

 

This video really offers a new perspective of the map editor. Sculptures, pyramids, and more are just a taste of whats in this video. Clearly the map editor won't just be used to make multilayer levels, but works of art as well.

 

 

I've pre-ordered this game two days ago, seeing this video has officially gotten me hyped for the game.

I got to play it last night, and other than some issues with shadows looking pixelated and jerky controls, it's gorgeous. The beginning is a bit long, but the action sets in after about 5 minutes.

 

The fire propagation alone is stunning. I could set sh*t on fire all day long.

Lucky bastard, your not the only one who get it early either. I most likely won't even get it until the 25th, my postal service is usually slow anyway.

The "tutorial" section was too drawn out and I lost interest. I'll go back to it on Sunday I guess. Lovely graphics though.

That drive in the beginning took forever.

 

Word of caution, don't take a chaingun to the only vehicle provided to you. The mission will not automatically fail, and you will be forced to hoof it across the f*cking Serengeti.

Does anyone by anychance have a beta code they are willing to give to me?

I don't believe there was a beta. And considering the game is only 5 days away any betas would have been closed by now.

 

I am almost 100% there was no public beta in any case.

Wasn't the game suppose to be out today in the U.S.?

Aye, but apparently some stores won't get it for a few days. I pre-ordered it so I should have it before weeks end.

 

Does anyone have this game yet?

I canceled my preorder, as I just found out it didn't even ship yet. I guess I will have to take the 60 mile Journey to Walmart to buy the game, otherwise I wouldn't get the game until November. suicidal.gif

I just got it and it's amazing. I haven't played anything so realistic in my life. Africa is gorgeous.

Are you sure you meet the requirements for the game?

Another hour of playing. I can't belive I started to stare at the sunset in the middle of a gunfight.
