    So it's official:


    Quote

    Ubisoft's blog provided further information on Far Cry 4, which is being developed by Ubisoft Montreal in collaboration with Red Storm Entertainment, Ubisoft Toronto, Ubisoft Shanghai and Ubisoft Kiev, and "takes a sharp turn away from the lush island jungles of the top-rated Far Cry 3".


    "Far Cry 4 is set in Kyrat, an untamed region currently ruled by a despotic self-appointed king," reads the site, "but don't be lulled into a false sense of security by the achingly beautiful views; Kyrat is a wild land full of perils.


    "Once again, players will be able to craft their own stories as they travel through this exotic open world teeming with wildlife - using their wits along with an assortment of powerful weapons and diverse vehicles."

    "Following the success of Far Cry 3, we wanted to take the franchise to the next level and create a game that will surprise players and exceed fans' expectations," said Dan Hay, Executive Producer.


    "Given the unique setting, we feel Far Cry 4 will stand out as a top first-person shooter and we're eager to reveal more about the game in the coming months."

    I hope PS4 and Xbone versions will not suffer due to it coming out on the 360 and PS3 as well.

    Not a single piece of information about the actual game in the official website, only links to major retailers where you can purchase your exclusive pre-order edition. Way to go Ubi!

    Do they? I didn't play Far Cry 3 (I know the game takes place in a tropical island and you shoot many things), but I have no idea what the new one is about because all the website has is an image, information about DLCs and pre-order links. How can you sell DLCs/pre-orders without even showing the game lol


    I'm not hating on the game, don't get me wrong (FC3 looks amazing, will probably skip it and play this one instead), but these stupid marketing ploys ubi pulls off all the time really get on my nerve. They are basically treating their costumers like sheep that will buy anything they cherish without even knowing anything about it.


    Anyways, I don't want to derail the thread anymore, show us the game now!

    Yeah I did, its the nic I've been using in games/twitch for the last 5 years, just not on mapcore, so I figured it was time to change it. Sorry for the confusion.


    Also this is hilarious!

    I will definitely not be buying this on release like i did with FC3. Was a little disappointed in FC3, very lacking in gameplay for an open world game.


    Some of the missions were quite cool though.

    Horrid cover. Is this a Saints Row-Far Cry crossover?

    Also: useless until demo at E3.

    I think you played a different game then I did. I wasn't a fan of Farcry 3 by any means, but it wasn't lacking in gameplay lol. It was praised/criticized for having to much content.

    I pumped 40 hours into Far cry 3 and enjoyed every second of it. Sure, the story was a bit silly (oh look I'm a sissy and a noob, then goes on a fucking rampage) but boy did it have cool missions and characters. Gameplay was awesome too. Let's go kill a shark with my bare hands or burn down a weed plant with a flamethrower and get high.


    Vaas his sister was also the first game character that was so well made and sensual that I had to go and bother my wife after playing.

    I don't consider hundreds of repetitions of a few activities, content. I should also point out I said GAMEPLAY, content does not equate to gameplay. I could have the same thing a thousand times, I would have plenty of content, that wouldn't make the gameplay good.


    Races (in various forms, still all races, they were actually some of the better parts of the game)

    Hunting (hunting the same animals dozens of times to get skins to craft things)

    Capturing bases (all which were pretty much clones of each other, always a lion in a cage, some metal fences around some huts, was fun the first few times, not the 15)


    That is literally all I remember of that game aside from burning down that weed farm and an incredibly unlikable player character (much like Connor in asscreed 3). It was far from a memorable experience. Its the same story with assassins creed, they have become very stale. I'm desperately hoping The division and Watch dogs break that pattern.
