I just thought I would get everyone's opinion here at forgehub about FarCry 2. This game was extremely hyped up with a great map editor, Immersed gameplay, and HUGE open world single player. I, for one, think this game has so far delivered everything I hoped for and more. I spent about 30 mins in the map editor last night and came up with something better than anything I had made in forge. So, comments and complaints?
I only played it for a brief 30 minutes today, and it was predomenantly the Map Editor, but i have to say i was quite astounded, even after observing almost every minor detail up until release. Those who are dissatisfied are probably because they over-hyped the game, which is a reason why all the releases of the last year or so have appeared to under achieve. Only look forward to what you know is going to be good, which in my case was the Map Editor, and it delivered.
I haven't gotten it, and I'm unsure if I will yet. Is the multiplayer fun? The first one wasn't anything special on the multiplayer side besides the editor.
Haven't played the multiplayer at all yet. I will have to try that out if I can manage to steer away from the map editor. Single player is also really addicting, and alot of times I will see something in the single player and think of things I could tweak to make it better in the map editor lol.
I did story first. So far it's everything I've hoped for and heard about. The map is immense, but restricted by natural obstacles like cliffs and mountains, which I expected, the effects textures and shadows are georgeous, and gameplay isn't too shabby. It does draw you in, much more than I thought. My only complaints so far are the ever respawning guard posts and the Spoiler malaria . I've spent all of 45 minutes yesterday looking at objects in the editor, and I'm now attempting a map I drew up in study. I'll get back to you on that one.. It's got a pretty steep learning curve at first, but if you're smart you can figure it out within a day or two. I'd give it a solid 9/10
it looks spectacular to me and im sure u did something great in 30 min... if u can forge well then that would be a breeze i cant wait to get it my bro has my xbox for 2 weeks or so so i have to wait or i would be on it right now... but looks great to me im going to go see if i can find any maps or vids or nething in a min....
ya so far i love it. I already started a map, but i haven't played that much campaign or multiplayer so i cant really give it a rating
