Title: Farcry 3
Post by: Breeze on December 04, 2012, 09:23 AM
So far I like it, only played the multiplayer with my mates. 
Haven't touched single player yet.

Sprint + crouch sliding is heaps of fun! :)

Pre-ordered last night, need to w8 4 more hours till I can download it from Steam(Ahhh man MAX graphics will be sexy!).
Looks good, how big is the world for who has played it?  It is open world is it not?
Is there a lot of stuff to do?  Many ways to kill people?  Whats your fav's?
I will probably be installing and playing in 2 days.... SHIT fest internet at this house I am at... Lol...

I played it today a little, it reminded me of Skyrim with guns lol, collectining plants and making potions wtf? :D I liked the variety of guns, but it's hard to do silent kills (maybe I need more perks for guns; ye, there are perks too!). Graphics, effects and the world are amazing, but there are so many animals and human enemies, fights can be endless (unless you have enough ammo), that's strange too... But anyway, I think I'll run this game one more time :D

Best game of 2012, the only other real contender for the title could be borderlands 2 imo. It's a combination of Crysis 1 with Far Cry 1 with a slight hint of Gta.
Loved the story, loved the graphics, loved the mechanics (guns and driving). I also enjoyed those few bits in which you're high out of your mind, heh.

Nice I love Skyrim, you can make potions huh?  How is the melee? Are there different brutality kills like a Death Cam ? Can you combine different weapons to make different weapons?

Best game of 2012? really? I never played Crysis 1 or FC 1.. :(
I played a little bit of Crysis 2 though.  What system did you play on?  haha I love getting high in video games, is it weed or something?

Played on PC with ultra settings, well crysis 1 was open world and sandbox game that was set on a tropical island and it was made by the same studio that produced far cry 1. Fc2 (horrible, horrible game) was made by ubisoft, that's why I was extremely surprised to see how good fc3 turned out to be. It's like the first time ever they listened to the players and eliminated all the flaws found in their previous games.

Crafting potions and makings your inventory storage bigger seems unnecessary at times, but it's not really annoying or anything and you can skip it all together anyway (you can heal without potions)
There's lots of kill animations, melee kills are my favourite since I'm a stealthy type in games, you can finish almost every mission without even being seen, but nothing holds you back from just jumping into a village and burning it all to the ground with a flamethrower. :D

I think van is comparing it to crysis 1 because it takes place in the jungle like the first crysis did.  The environments are basically the same.  I've been looking forward to this game, but im more looking forward to crysis 3 and the debut of cryengine3 as well.  Crytek is a great game developer, I cant wait to pick this up, ive heard nothing but good things. 

The one game im really waiting for is Bioshock Infinite though.....

and with the best soundtrack in the game probably xD

really? I kill 3-4 enemies in "stealth" mode, but have to finish others with AK or RPG (powa :D).

And it's boring to kill animals to get better stuff, it would be better to be able to buy everything. Now I have to kill 10 dogs to get more pockets for nades ;D

I'm super hyped for crysis 3, Crysis 1 must be my favourite fps from the past decade, and I still sometimes play crysis 2 on multiplayer (although it's full of die-hards and assholes and there's not much place for casual players... just like... in worms lol) Not a big fan of the linear campaign that was presented in cry2 but the multiplayer used to be really enjoyable. I really wish cry3 took place in an open world and didn't feel as limited as the 2nd one (here's where far cry 3 comes in and knocks my boots off), but I'll probably get it purely for the multiplayer experience.

Bioshock looks awesome as well, I'm an avid fan of the series.

BTW van when did crytek stop developing the far cry series? I went to the crytek website to get more information on far cry 3 and realized ubisoft is developing it now.  At least now I know why Far Cry 2 sucked when compared to Far Cry and Far Cry Instincts Predator.

Yes sir I'm rather excited for this too. 
Still haven't had time to play single player :(

Also think that the introduction video thing is quite possibly the best I've seen ever.

Random sidenote: Bones, an ex sCa.worms member, is actually a texture designer for Crytek. 8) And yes they've been doing an amazing job, loved the looks of their games.

Yeah, FarCry 1 and Crysis 1. We had a chat about his work there a couple years ago, before the release of Crysis. He kinda gave me insider information. :D

Havent finished it yet but after these 10 hours of gameplay only 1 thing comes to my mind - Assassins Creed in contemporary edition of FPP with some additions like burning whole villages down with flamethrower, bad guys driving around the jungle randomly, reinforcements after you pick a fight, boats, perks and annoying crafting. Fun and beautiful game indeed but no hype after playing AC3, imo. Hard to say objectively if this or other is better. Farcry 3 feels more "open and sandbox-like" where second one has fast paced parkour and awesome meele combat. Personally i prefer Assassins with no doubt for its period setting, gameplay and character design. Cant vouch for story line, for the time being its nothing new and feels empty.

I would like them equally.  Reminds me, I need to buy AC3 next week.  I just wish there was more to do with combat in FCIII and have a SILENT sniper ><
