It uses the CryEngine. Therefore it won't work. And until I get confirmation that I don't have to buy ammo or make medicines from plants, I'll be leaving alone. FC3 was crap. |

Bar Blood Dragon, I've found the series to be incredibly over-hyped. It does nothing well. |

Agreed. I got Far Cry 3 through PS+ and it was supposed to be this big amazing thing, but I was bored out of my mind within a couple of hours. |

Oh hush the two of you, the FC series has been superb - not faultless - but IMVHO far better than 95% of the FPS offerings. I for one am very excited. Not buy a new console and the game on day of release excited. But excited nonetheless. (he says, still with a barely started Borderlands 2, and the Bioshock trilogy to get through) |

Oh I loved Borderlands 2, but you really do need to be playing it with friends. |

No it hasn't. FC1 - was good right until the trigens ruined it in level 5 FC2 - pretty but dull FC3 - dull, very silly and only pretty at short draw distances. One of the worst games I've ever bought |

That's a pretty accurate assessment. |

FC1 was awesome. Best looking game of its time. The Trigens were odd but didn't ruin it IMHO. I didn't play FC2 or 3 so I can't comment. However, I traded in a few games on Friday for FC4. One of the best FPS games I've played. The graphics are just mind blowingly ridiculous. You can stand at the top of a bell tower and look out of thousands of acres of landscape and see all the details. It's crazy. But then you look at the ground and it's equally detailed. And that's from a console. I actually really love the crafting stuff. TBH I've spent most of my time just wandering around hunting animals and collecting plants. Not because I didn't know what to do just because I like exploring  Yes you can buy ammo but you can also collect it from people who drop it when they are killed. ATM I can carry 180 rounds of assault rifle ammo and it usually takes about three well aimed shots to kill an enemy. There are some heavy troops that are harder to take down but I've only seen a couple so far.Also, you can heal yourself without healing syringes but it takes longer and you can't heal as much in one go. You can buy syringes fairly cheaply though and they're scattered around houses and huts and stuff. The crafted syringes also give you extra bonuses which I first thought would be useless but actually they're awesome. There is a "Hunting Syringe" which will automatically mark enemies and animals that are nearby. At a higher level they also improve your stealth walking etc... And that's one out of the four different crafted syringes. TBH though, I just love flying around. I grabbed a hang glider and jumped off the side of a mountain. Then bailed out and descended with my wing suit and parachuted into the camp I was aiming for Another thing. It's huge. So far I've been playing 8 hours. I've captured 2 outposts and 3 bell towers (these remove Fog of War from the map). And I can see another 20+ bell towers on the map. I've maybe uncovered 5-10% of the total map. In a car it currently takes about 10+ minutes to drive from between my two furthest safe houses. |
