Subject: Far Cry 3: A Model for Successful Games

I'm tempted to try it out because of the good reviews, but...

The story is fantastic. A fresh faced kid essentially turning into what he sets out to destroy.

...from what I've seen, it seems too similar to Spec Ops: The Line. If any of you have played Spec Ops, and can confirm that the stories are very different from each other, I would me much more interested.
It has similarities, but it's very different at the core. It does not criticize the genre nor does it try to teach you that killing is bad.

CTF is god. Praise his name. For the flag is his holy messiah.

My third montage!

I want to get it just for the map editor, that alone sales the game for me. It's everything thing forge should be.

Thank you. Now I'm interested.

Completely agree with you OP, it is definitely GOTY for me, everything about it is a step up from FC2. The weapons, fighting, exploring, environment, and most of all the character development have been drastically improved.

Fantastic game, and I love the story.

  • 12.06.2012 1:08 PM PDT

FC3 is fantastic! Honestly my GOTY above Halo 4 and Pokémon Black/White 2.

Halo 2 was the best Halo game

Multiplayer and map editor were major letdowns...

This basically summarizes what all the reviewers think.

Do everyone a favor, get some intelligence, grow a set, bust a nut, and shut the fu­ck up.

WHATS THE MP LIKE?

Level editor still?

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

I've heard it's pretty awesome. With recent games becoming increasingly (and to me, disappointingly) rigid and linear like AC3 and Hitman: Absolution, it's going to be fantastic to play something with true choice. Seems like it's the Skyrim of this year, and I'm still making new Skyrim characters.

The Map Editor is 11/10.
I reconstructed the American Revolution and played it with my friends.

Multiplayer is mostly dead and when you find a game it's basically enhanced CoD gameplay. Map editor is awesome, but you can't make AI or vehicle maps for multiplayer.

  • 12.06.2012 1:25 PM PDT

agreed. loving it so far.

  • 12.06.2012 1:28 PM PDT

Hey, how's it going?

I haven't played it but from the playthroughs I've seen it looks like an incredible game.

EDIT: Probably my favorite video for FC3

Its absolutely incredible. I have been playing around with the map editor as well. Everything just feels awesome.

If I ever get AIDS, I'm going to sleep with another AIDS person so my AIDS cancel each other out, or I'm going to make the AIDS I already have worse.

Has anyone been able to play multiplayer.

7even is Darker

I finished it on the weekend.

Haven't enjoyed a game as much in YEARS.

I put it on par with red dead redemption.

"You are the last of your kind: bred for combat, built for war. You're the master of any weapon, pilot of any vehicle, and fear no enemy"

It's fantastic. I agree. The graphics aren't all that, and it's all as fun. The age of breakthrough games are not yet over.

yes, and all i will say is, it's a real shame there is only about 600 people playing it, because it's really nice, very balanced, and just overall quite laid back.

I think only that many people play it is because the server is bad currently:P

I haven't heard anything about it, but maybe that is the case.
I hope so, I don't want it to get to like CoD, but it needs to have at least some population.

I know, if this game held a steady population with the map editor it would be amazing.

I agree 110%, the map editor has a LOT of potential, and the fact that you can search for games on custom maps is really going to help the game stay new.
