Why does ubisoft make farcry & not crytek?

OpenGL5214d ago

Crytek made the first Far Cry but when they left Ubisoft still owned the franchise which is why they made Crysis.

Shackdaddy8365214d ago

I wish Crytek made farcry still. They would definitely do the game more justice than Ubi.

Farcry 2 would have looked something like this...

Loved the first farcry. Hated Ubisoft Montreal's farcry 2.

I really want to see a Crysis 4 with all the ray-tracing & path-tracing effects. It would be a shame if they canceled the project. Maybe they could do a kickstarter?

DF
" Crysis is something of a tentpole game series for us at Digital Foundry, with a reputation for being an early adopter of graphics technologies that would later define entire generations of PC and console video games. That includes the likes of screen-space ambient occlusion, sub-surface scattering and ray-marched volumetric lighting, but you could write volumes about just how ground-breaking that first game was "

I really hope they come out and push the industry forward like they used to. I miss old crytek

They all look disappointed by this news especially Alex

JEECE118d ago

Pretty sad that the studio that gave us a monumental game like Crysis is now subsisting on microtransactions from a live service PVPVE game.

Crysis developer Crytek is the next studio hit by layoffs, as it announces it's set to lose an estimated 15 percent of its 400 employees.

RaidenBlack126d ago

Why'd the day start with such sad gaming news?
Absolutely disheartening.

Jingsing126d ago

Maybe putting The Power Rangers in Hunt Showdown will get you some money back. (sarcasm)

Kassanova07126d ago

I'm always rooting for Crytek.

P_Bomb126d ago

I’m rooting for Crysis. Hope they work it out.

Playing it right now looks amazing! :D
so much fun, i hope they make a vr mod for crysis 2 / 3 too!

DivineHand125144d ago

This is amazing. This is the direction VR should go in to boost adoption. Since I have beaten every Crysis except 1, this is now a good excuse to correct that problem.
