That's no mark against it, and I guess some of those might be development assets, but still, I guess I was expecting something a little more different.

I'm gonna be using that grenade launcher and double barrel shotgun a lot but yeah pretty much. Also the crossbow looks kinda silly and I hope someone mods in the original bow  E: Oh, there's a regular bow.

pengun101 posted:New gameplay of farcry 4 So it actually does pretty much do the same "Got high, had a vision quest" thing that Far Cry 3 does. I won't hold hitting the same beats as FC3 against FC4 unless you wake up boning the chick from the arena or something, though. At that point it's a bit too egregious with being the same game, different place.

FC3 had a totally retarded story but was pretty and had a great gameplay "feel" and is fun as hell to play, with hilarious gator ambushes and cassowaries taking over outposts. FC4 looks kind of like a prettier updated clone of FC3, the concept art of the villain even looks kind of Vas-like to me, but eh. As long as it's got the fun gameplay.

Far Cry 3 became immensely more enjoyable once I found a mod that ups the amount of pirates that you encounter on the island. Then it became a game of trying to sneaky on your way to the next outpost instead of just driving to each of them unhindered like you can in vanilla.

This Gamespot article I'm trying to find the thing, but apparently when you take an outpost over, enemies can take it back and you'll get called asking to defend it. I think I saw being able to tick the option to repopulate outposts is in by default, and there are also larger outposts/fortresses now? So that's cool

CSM posted:It had some fun elements, but it was also incredibly repetitive with endless amounts of boring sidequests, radiotowers, collectibles... Most of the collectibles weren't required though. I remember the requirements to get the signature weapons were really low, so the only reason to plow through them entirely was to 100% it. The hunting missions were awesome, hunting on your own for poo poo to craft in hostile territory when every gunshot anywhere was met with "What dee gently caress?" was awesome, outposts were awesome. If that kind of stuff didn't seem fun to you, you probably aren't going to like this game. Re: outpost overhaul, gently caress YES. After my first play through in 3, I had to double back and do another one without taking any outposts outside of the ones absolutely necessary because driving around in poo poo you own gets old. If the AI really could launch attacks back, and you could respond to those, it would be incredible.

Wow, the weapons are literally exactly the same as in FC3. That's a bit lame and lazy. FC4 looks pretty much like a huge dlc for FC3, but that's not a problem because FC3 is one of my favourite games of the last few years.

Control Volume posted:This is pretty much word for word the same criticism leveled at FC3 with regards to FC2. You're probably not going to like this game, guy. I don't know, my biggest criticisms for Far Cry 3 had little to do with Far Cry 2, and some of the most common complaints I saw (back when FC3 first came out) were generally along the lines of, "why did they get rid of [some sort of FC2 mechanic] instead of figuring out how to improve it?" For example, the absence of the sleep to pass time mechanic, jamming/degrading weapons, or tools like IEDs and mortar tubes that encouraged different strategies, etc. In fact, I really feel like the two were pretty different games. My main problem with FC3 was that it was incredibly broad but shallow--it offered a lot of things to do, but nothing could really provide more than 10 or 15 minutes of activity. The game constantly wanted to remind you to GO HERE and DO THAT, and to rope you into things with one of the most obnoxious mission prompts I've seen in years, but there was strikingly little depth to virtually any aspect of the game. Then you had the super unsubtle RED versus BLUE TEAM base-hopping struggle that really could have benefited from feeling a little less like you were playing a multiplayer game. And the animals were a very welcome addition that helped break up the monotony of fighting the same soldiers over and over again (FC2 really sucked in this regard), but then they went completely gonzo with it and it seemed like entire island was crawling with an endless zoo of creatures that all wanted to kill each other. I can't count the number of times a sneaky ambush was waylaid by komodo dragons or a tiger or some rear end in a top hat animal that singlehandedly dispatched 2-4 enemy NPCs. Again, it was cool in concept, but it's like the developers wanted to make sure that you were stumbling across somebody being killed by an animal every five minutes, because otherwise people might find the game too boring. After seeing an emu maul somebody for the tenth time in a couple of hours, it's like, "I loving get it. It'd be cooler if it wasn't happening all the time." For me, though, the worst thing was that the game was piss-easy, even on the hardest difficulty. I'll periodically reinstall the game and fart around with it (it seems like the real point of the game is to abandon the storyline and just run around, being a jackass--despite the prompts constantly shouting at you to GO HERE AND TALK TO NPC SO YOU CAN DO SOMETHING) but, even though I play a lot of similar sandbox games, I get bored with this one after 20 or 30 minutes. EDIT: That is all to say that if FC4 expands enough on FC3 by adding new weapons and strategies (which is seems to) and provides some sort of challenge so that I'm not death incarnate after 15 minutes of playing the game, I'll still pick it up at some point. Not for $60, but definitely discounted during a future Steam Sale. Cream-of-Plenty fucked around with this message at 06:36 on Nov 5, 2014 |

Take Fallout 3 -> New Vegas, for example. A ton of recycled assets, but a pretty different experience, with the latter expanding and generally improving upon the former's formula.
