Lots of Far Cry 3 details have emerged from EDGE: find out about open-ended combat and design, some of the game's missions (including a setpiece comparable to an Uncharted 3 mission), removal of weapon degradation, and more.
(Far Cry 3, PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
Personally I didn't like weapon degeneration, there was no bigger piss off then having enemies with seemly 100% perfect fully functional weapons, while yours were continually jamming.
Far Cry 2 was a good game and it had the potential to be amazing. They just needed to fix the constant enemy spawn at checkpoints and add more varied sidequests with better weapon modding system. That's it. The graphics, sound, environmental design... Everything was perfect.
Far Drive 2 lmfao! it was kind of like that, I'm looking forward to the new Far Cry 3 I'm glad they going back to the jungle this time that's where Far Cry belongs
Very true... More games need editors... They add infinite amounts of playability! Plus it's fun to just let your imagination go wild when making maps and things of that sort.
All game designers, companies should start following this trend of releasing Map editors, or having a creation Kit system like TES:3,4 and 5. Just like Halo's Forge...but with more freedom to create!!!
Yikes, this list could use some serious editing. I find it amusing that a lot of these details were even included at all. You even see a lizard in the cave!!!
"- Mando’s audition was completely opposite of what the team was looking for, and didn’t land the job - Even so, Mando’s agent called him three weeks later and told him that Ubisoft was willing to make a character based on the audition he did because they liked it so much"
Brutal. Hes audition should be something really brutal. Wish was there
Hmm I thought far cry 2 was awesome. The MP needed some work and some minor tweeks to the single player but overall a great game. The sound and detail to the secenery was great.
Ive been hearing & reading that they could quite possibly bring malaria pills in Far Cry 3. I hope that doesnt happen to be quite honest. That pissed me off as well.
I hope far cry 3 multiplayer is better than its predicessor because that was pretty bad all round it felt like a afterthought which is was hope they put abit more love and attention in this one.
Far cry 2 was a very good game but the infinite enemies respawn at the militia's checkpoints was really irritating this was the worst aspect of the game..and the MP was useless and boring.I really hope that this time in Far cry 3 they fix these problems.
Far Cry 2 was good but this looks better, as long as they get rid of the annoyances of the last one, namely the far too frequent weapon jamming, infinitely respawning enemies at checkpoints (and how come if you drove through the checkpoint without fighting them they would sumhow use some super boost in their cars to catch up with you instantly?!) and a better storyline (the last game seemed as if you were just doing irrelevant tasks for the factions for hours, then every so often the 'jackal' who you were sent there to kill wud show up, save your life, and advance the story a bit). If they improve these things then this cud easily be one of the better games of 2012 (assuming it releases this year)
Cant wait for this game. I have to admit that all the things that most people disliked about Farcry 2, I actually had no problem with. Living with malaria/needing to locate pills, as well as weapon degradation added to the gritty survivalist nature of the game and added to the immersion you feel with the character and environment.
Also, alot of people hated the travel distances between mission checkpoints, but I personally loved taking those drives just to marvel at the beautifully stunning scenery of the African setting... and if you didn't want to drive/boat that far, the bus stations for fast fravel were always a closer drive than the next mission location. Even the re-spawning enemy checkpoints didn't annoy me that much because I didn't mind the combat, or the chase.
You might call me a FC2 fanboy! I can live with that
Far Cry 2 was not only a boring game, but an insult to Africa. These developers actually went to Africa to capture the look and feel of Africa for the game, but it was too generic with boring driving missions and repetitive respawning enemies A.I. and the animals were harmless!!! The only thing good about that game was the level creator.
Far Cry 3 looks promising maybe I will give it a rental to make sure it a good buy.

I desire mod tools.

Also, bring back the map editor! (with bot's we can waypoint for custom missions)
