Far Cry Primal

Im interested if there is multiplayer, and not follow the standard Ubisoft formula of climbing a tall tree to unlock map, collecting mammoth bone 1/200 :v

wait so you're not a student with a quiff in this one? wat

Kind of interesting twist actually! I loved Far Cry 3 and 4 so I'll probably give this a shot.

Farcry is all about killing animals these days - on the list to be or already extinct.

You level up while doing it.

Far Cry is Ubisoft's COD now, shame.

Well I'm curious.
Currently this first video shows me a lot of brown things / colors with a unknow setting for a game.
So yeah I need to see what they will make and how they will use this period for a game...I need to see more / gameplay footage and not only a prehistoric hunt.

Oh, and I hope they won't respect the historic setting because I want to see a kind of a lost world place where some dinosaurs are still living

It is, but is not… at least they do more original things with it, not just copies every year

Well, 4 was basically a copy of 3?

4 Already felt quite rushed to be honest (fetch quests, incoherent storyline etc), I'm just worried it will happen again.

As much as I loved both FC3 and 4 (and 1 and 2 tbh), I think it's safe to say 4 was just 3 in Tibetan clothing. Yes it brought some new things to the table, but then so does COD with each iteration.

I'm not sure I like the look of this, it's like they've taken the Shangri La part of FC4 and expanded it into a game. But the video looks uber scripted so I shall reserve judgement until gameplay.

My paws have been collaborating on this one

As much as I would love to hate on FC4 being the reskinned FC3, the soundtrack was frigging awesome. One of the best in my opinion.

This better have a melee system as good as in Dying Light. I don't know if this will keep me playing the usual Far Cry lenght of 40+ hours if it didn't.

Well, I don't know what to tell you about that "the same over and over" thing. I'll maybe pass my comment on this topic but when BO3 will be out, please, play it and let me know if it's again the same game.

It was more referencing Buddy's comment of "Far Cry is Ubisoft's COD now, shame."

I bought every cod up to mw2 and no longer felt I could justify spending that sort of money annually to keep up with the latest considering the changes. I tried again with advanced warfare and was disappointed with how little it had changed still considering the period of time passed.

I would be lying if I said I was following or knew anything about BO3, or even looking forward to it. However, I'm always willing to be swayed so I'll watch out for it on your request

I just don't like seeing good titles smeared because a publisher wants to capitalise on their earning potential.

I was hoping for dinosaurs, but I guess this is ok too I was a big fan of the first Far Cry. I remember these times when you always asked your buddies "but does your PC even run Far Cry?" If your PC could run Far Cry, you were the man basically. I've tried out all of games in the franchise, but I havn't really been stuck in them for too long. The mushroom trip in Far Cry 3 is so damn cool though

I bet on moroes thought : there will be dinosaurs and hidden "world"

I had FC3 and didn't like the early game, played like 1h before it bored me, i dunno maybe wait how this game is when they release gameplay vids

ofc I don't expect each game to be completely different, I didn't say it was a bad thing for FC either, and I definitely didn't intend to imply that it was a quick job to make FC4. I loved both 3 and 4 without reservation.

What I'm saying is that I didn't notice that 4 did anything new compared to 3 (edit: maybe coop is only thing?). To me a game is more than it's setting, and I do appreciate the importance of it, but if the game play becomes stale then what?

Some games just don't need to be released year after year after year. I'm not a game developer, I don't know the ins and outs of development and I sure as hell don't know what management think when they try and pedal these games, but as predominantly a gamer it pisses me right off when a good game is bled dry. Luckily primal looks like a... far cry... from the current mix, and as I said, I will reserve judgement until I see actual gameplay and not a scripted sequence.

As I said to seir before, my mention of CoD was more in reply to Buddy's statement.

Meh, I wish they went with the vampire/werewolf theme. Doesn't look like there will be a wingsuit/parachute/almost everything that made Far Cry 3 fun. The technological prowess of this period include spear-thrower and the invention of the wheel, what a blast this will be.
