Here's how Far Cry 4 co-op works if you don't have the game

Eurogamer :

"Far Cry 4's co-op is available to people who don't own Far Cry 4. How is this possible, you ask? It starts with a client.

Like the 3DS's download play, PS4 users without Far Cry 4 will be able to download a separate app that allows them to be invited into their friends' Far Cry 4 games.

It's going to be a colossal app, since it will contain all of the game's content sans its story-based missions - which are the only content available exclusively in single-player."

Great idea, especially if you have 2 ps4s for couch coop :)

Rainbowcookie4008d ago

Wonder if cross platform will work one day since some people own a Pc Ps4 , Xboxone , WiiU combo. Would be awesome> I love couch cop-op and the online co-op features nowadays really worry me since where I live the internet is quite slow. Love gaming with the wife.

Deadpoolio4008d ago

Not as long as Microsoft has anything to say about it....Microsoft is the entire reason the Xbox didn't get FFXIV, they refused to let their "special" Xbox players play with those dirty PC/PS4/PS3 peasants....

We'll see PS and PC cross platform since Sony has been very open and willing, but unless someone at Microsoft pulls their head out of their anus Xbox will never be included

MysticStrummer4008d ago

This is a pretty big feature for PS4. One of the most shocking things I've heard at E3 in awhile. If other games follow suit, sales of other consoles would definitely be negatively impacted.

Dudebro904008d ago

How is this a big feature? Neither player earns progress for their time being played. Why bother?

kingPoS4008d ago

Whelp! I'm going to enjoy it anyway, ten invites & progress be damned!

for , gasp, fun?

i know.
crazy, right?

akaFullMetal4008d ago

Neat feature, I wonder if xbox one is getting the same thing? I think I heard they weren't, not sure why?

MasterCornholio4008d ago

My guess is that it's either one of these two things.

1. An exclusive deal made with Ubisoft.
2. Xbox Lives policy's prevent a feature like this from existing.

I'm leaning towards the policy though since PSN appears to be a lot more flexible than Xbox live.

ghostface94008d ago

no but good try its a deal they made with sony

MasterCornholio4008d ago

I was completely shocked when i heard this. This reminds me of the rumored family plan.

Minute Man 7214008d ago

It was just a fake rumor to save face by M$

late but still a good move, oobi

InUrFoxHole34d ago

Seriously, it's great to see devs add things to older games.

OhReginald34d ago

Sony....you're really letting ubisoft out of all all companies to out class you??? Give us the bloondborne 60 fps patch....ffs

dantesparda34d ago

I second this (Bloodborne 60fps) plus damn, Ubisoft, you're doing great but now the last thing I want youi to do is mae Far Cry Primal 60fps and AC Unity

Profchaos34d ago

Everytime someone asks for a bloodborne patch it gets delayed 1 day.

ETA next century

I_am_Batman33d ago

They know it's gonna cost them sales of the inevitable Remake that'll probably come around the PS6 launch.

raWfodog34d ago

Good news for when, or If, I ever play it. It’s waaay down on my backlog list lol.

P_Bomb34d ago

I like these 60fps patches. Hoping they’ll do Ghost Recon Wildlands someday.

Yi-Long34d ago

Kudos to Ubisoft for once again going back to older titles and then offering a nice upgrade for free. I know the company gets a lot of criticism, in quite a few cases understandable and justified, but in this area of contintued post-launch support for their SP games, they deserve some credit.

Ubisoft Removes Nudity in Silent Far Cry 4 Update (New Info: Changes Reverted)

Update: Ubisoft has acknowledged that the Japanese version of the game, which includes regional censorship, was mistakenly released globally. The company says it has reverted these changes in the game's worldwide branch.

Ubisoft has quietly removed nudity from Far Cry 4 in a recent update, sparking speculation about Tencent’s growing influence on the publisher.

You can murder, mame, and viciously attack people, but anything that deals with showing a body in a natural state whether for titillation or narrative, is some truly terrible thing. We are so weird with our puritan thought process. Feed our bloodlust and fuel our enjoyment for entertainment of simulating acts of harm and murder, but god forbid you see digitized TnA. It will never make sense to me.

Rebel_Scum58d ago

tbh even if they did remove it, it doesnt matter. I dont even remember when there was nudity in the game. If it was there it was so inconsequential.

B5R58d ago

Agreed. It absolutely makes no sense

Also, even though Ubisoft reverted the changes that removed nudity, there's the bigger issue of developers being able to make large changes to the game you paid for whenever they want.

Stellar Blade comes to mind. This is why buying physical is the way to go.

Played and enjoyed Far Cry, Far Cry 3 and 4 campaigns .

-Foxtrot445d ago

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor445d ago

Yeah, 4 was good, was hard choosing which Golden Dawn member to side with, when they were both pieces of sh!t.
I've beaten all the main entries except 2 and 6, ended up uninstalling 6 to download something else instead.

Profchaos445d ago

I'd love a far cry pack with the original PC game (not the half assed port on ps360) instincts, predator even a port of far cry 2 to modern consoles back when these games had their own identity and weren't far cry 3 cut and pastel

Demetrius445d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger88445d ago (Edited 445d ago )

Same here, I don't know why these games get so much hate. I've thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them, with only a couple of exceptions. I wish they'd hurry up and announce Far Cry 7. The only thing I'm concerned about is the rumoured time limit.
