TheMcSame Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 So you're not aware of the fact that people were able to actually pre-order these games on Steam? And the idiots that actually pre ordered them will likely get a refund or have their purchase moved over to UPlay. As I said earlier, Ubisoft has their own steam-like service, they have no reason to have their games sold on Steam because they can make more selling it on their own service rather than selling it on Steam and giving Valve a slice of the pie.

MythAlex Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 What the f*ck? Why was Far Cry 4 removed from Steam store??? I don't live in UK. Ubisoft said that only in UK Steam store their newest games won't be available, NOT IN ALL REGIONS.... OMFG.... I really hope they made a mistake by removing the game from all regions on Steam :-\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you completely clueless? People despise Uplay for a reason. This isn't about what is best for Ubisoft. You're not on their board of directors. You're a consumer. And this is about what is best for the f*ckin' consumers. Ubisoft is again dropping all pretense of giving a sh*t. Uplay is terrible. And if Ubisoft is making a move again to try to force Uplay as something mandatory (and they are judging by their latest Uplay update) then the only ones that are going to suffer again are the paying customers. So get your head out of your ass and start thinking like a consumer. Start thinking about what's best for you not what's best for them.

People despise a lot of things but that doesn't stop those things. Even if I think about this as a consumer it isn't going to change the fact that Ubisoft's games new games (including FC4) have been taken off of steam because they are going to be released on Uplay. I'd also like to point out these pages to you which further strengthens my point: http://shop.ubi.com/store/ubiemea/en_GB/pd/ThemeID.8605700/productID.299467100/The_Crew_-_Limited_Edition.html http://shop.ubi.com/store/ubiemea/en_GB/pd/ThemeID.8605700/productID.299140700/Assassins_Creed%C2%AE_Unity.html http://shop.ubi.com/store/ubiemea/en_GB/pd/ThemeID.8605700/productID.304136400/Far_Cry%C2%AE_4_%E2%80%93_Limited_Edition.html Notice how they are on the Uplay store with an option for PC Download? Explains itself really. Evidently they've been taken off of steam to be sold on Uplay. Again, they have no reason to sell their games on a competing platform if they have their own platform.

Creed Bratton Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) Evidently they've been taken off of steam to be sold on Uplay. That's never been in question. You're just spouting the obvious. I'm talking about the implications of this. People pre-ordered these games on Steam because they prefer Steam over Uplay. A company that cares about its customers is supposed to give them a choice, not tie them down to a service that they can't even stand. They have a very good reason to sell their games on Steam. Not everyone is going to get these games now when they don't have the option of buying them on Steam. Then there are people who buy games on Steam sales. People do still vote with their wallets you know? Just because Ubisoft decided to do this doesn't mean that it's a good choice. It doesn't mean that everyone will simply bow down and accept it. How many people are just gonna pirate those games now? And it's not true that people can't stop things they don't like. Of the top of my head, Ubisoft had to remove the always online requirement for AC2 and Microsoft had to completely reverse their Xbox One policy.

Companies don't have to give people a choice, if companies cared about the consumer then they would listen to the stupid, terrible ideas that people spurt out. Out of those things that were changed by input from the community just think how many things weren't changed. People don't like Uplay, it's still here, people don't like Origin, it's still here, a lot of people don't like certain companies, they're still here. /argument Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creed Bratton Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) Those things are still there because of clueless gamers like you that don't have an ounce of self-respect and willpower. Gamers that are willing to put up with every sh*t these companies throw at them on a regular basis. Gamers that for some inexplicable reason go out of their way to defend the companies who's sole goal is to milk as much money from them as humanly possible. You are a part of the problem. None of these things would be a problem if people simply had some f*ckin' willpower to say that enough is enough. Every time that has happened, the companies had to listen. Because they don't have a choice. They need to sell. And if people don't buy, they're forced to listen.

I know man, I know GTA is by all counts totally different but the confirmation of FP totally killed Far Cry for me. Basically the game has gone into the pick up second hand however many months after release bin. Im pretty sure I will still enjoy getting my teeth in, so much like the last one and the last one was basically Bear Grylls: The Game for me.

Alpha Demigod Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Very new to Far Cry games. Only played halfway through FC3 and lost interest. But this game is looking good. Serious question: how does Far Cry handle the killing of antagonists? I hate Vaas's quicktime cutscene. But that was just the tip of the iceberg with issues I had with Vaas. I wont bother to detail them here but the gist is that he wasn't an interesting villain at all, and his placement in the story was idiotic. In FC3 trailers we've been introduced to 3 main antags so far: Pagan Min, the chick that runs the arena, and that Triad daughter who is a prison warden Do you think we'll get to kill them all, in hopefully non-quicktime custscenes but instead interesting boss fights?

Its a tough one really isn't it because for the sake of authenticity you can't exactly swap lead for half an hour with one big bad boss in this game. Did you get to the part sort of midway in FC3 where Jason trips out and has to use his bow and arrow to fight that giant demon in the clouds? Man, I smoked a J for the first time in forever one night, it just so happened to be the night that I had that fight, it was freaking awesome. So maybe they will use the 'spirit journey' bits in a more interesting, fantastical way to have a boss fight. Apart from that, pretty sure we will get QTE's but as long as they are implemented with originality or with just downright awesomeness then that will be ok with me.

RoadRunner71 Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Hiring mercenaries is a nice addition and something I really missed in FC3. I wonder how will they work or if you'll be able to select their weapons and task. The mortar is interesting as well, it could work pretty well combined with the allied mercenarie in a support role if it was properly developed, which I doubt considering that we are talking about Ubisoft. About almost everything else, at least at first sight is meh so I rather to save my opinion and not start all over again with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARC8_1982 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 FC4 looks beautiful and promising in terms of visual quality as well as fun to play, but after AC:U which flopped miserably, im going to be cautious, i wanna see reviews and players reactions first, and maybe then i'll buy FC4 not earlier.

Turan Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I'm thinking of getting this on the PC and not on the PS4. I'd much rather play first person shooters in 60 fps. ARC8_1982 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My biggest concern isn't optimization. All of the Far Cry games have been optimized wonderfully, and the game is made for PC and then ported to the consoles. My concern is Ubisoft locking away content behind apps and Uplay after I've already payed the full price for the game. They did that in AC:U. Then there's the season pass, pre-order DLC and other forms of DLC. Ubisoft's got every trick in the book that makes their products increasingly less and less convenient and appealing to me. They've reached the point where $60 is simply too much for all the sh*t that I would have to put up with as a consumer. And that probably won't change anytime soon, because they're going in the opposite direction. They think $60 is not enough, which is why they've come up with multiple versions of the game, each cut in different places and with a different price tag. Standard Edition, Gold Edition, Uber Ubisoft's Cock Edition, GOTY edition, season pass, pre-order DLC, companion apps, microtransactions etc. It's all too much for a simple game. I want to just pay once for it and play it without feeling like I've just been ripped off. They even have a day-one mission DLC for those who pre-order the season pass. And there is no doubt that this mission has been cut from the main game. It's beyond ridiculous at this point.

Spider-Vice Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Reviewers haven't even got the codes yet while Ubisoft promised them they [editors] would have reviews ready by the game's release date. A big day one patch was also announced, and because of AC:U their shares have fallen 13%. I'm honestly not optimistic about FC4, and if it also fails, Ubisoft either has to make an actual effort, or bye-bye to them because they'll just... die.

esmittystud101 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 (edited) I hope they don't have issues like AC: Unity either, I feel bad for all the players that looked forward to that one, I'm sure they will fix it eventually but launch issues are never a good thing especially when the issues are framrates and pixels. That should have been taken care of on day one.I think really when it boils down to it, I just wana explore a decent size map. I think thats why I'm looking forward to this and GTA V so much. Sunset Overdrive is keeping me pretty busy when it comes to exploring and collectables. There is a ton of collectables in Sunset Overdrive too, but I have to keep in motion constantly, which I'm not complaining, but its different. Being able to explore an African map I think will be great.I also seen this article http://www.gamerheadlines.com/2014/11/far-cry-4-alternate-ending-15-min/ I didn't read the whole article, just didn't want to spoil anything, but what a waist for a game if you did that.
