GC 2008: Far Cry 2 Gameplay

GC 2008: Far Cry 2 Gameplay
Written Monday, September 08, 2008 by Dan Webb

Far Cry 2 is already pulling in praise from around the industry and its still a few months away from release. Whether you want to focus on the innovation, the visuals or that crazy as hell map editor, it has the makings of a great game... One of many this fall period.

To whet your appetite, check out some of the show floor footage from the Games Convention. Not enough? Well, then read our preview on the title from the very same event.

What's up with the gun jamming? I don't remember hearing/seeing anything about that.

Guns have a limited shelf life, so you can't go through the game with the same gun. You need to adapt and change it up.

I will most definitely purchase this title. Hopefully the achievements are solid and fair.

How come the people that always say "first" never actually say anything useful? You guys think you'll go down in the hall of fame and be remembered for ages to come if you make the first post or something? Little kids man...

First is one of those dumb internet things they seem to like to do... here it just gets you an infraction.

fair enough to complain about 'first', but if we just ignore them, they might start to stop.

Anyway, Game sure looks ace

This game looks like it has performance issues. Seems laggy.

i'm gonna be honest and say that this game looks horribly boring. I'n the first half of the video you hardly shoot at anything.

@ #11 - It's out October 21st/24th = a good 6/7 weeks away which in my eyes is a couple of months :P

kinda disappointing that they are going with bad company style (i know they didn't invent it its just an easy ref) shooting, with no reticle until u look down the sight. I miss having a reticle


still though i'm excited

uk release is 31st i think. looking forward to it anyway. an yeah i think with a game being so big in terms of map size they didnt really wanna have loads of things to shoot at, but there was a hint at some type of predatory animals as you can see in scenery afew zebra`s an whatnot in the fields etc

Poll

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.
Who the hell cares!?
No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
