Far Cry leaked
 

This kinda bothers me.... even though the game itself is probably awesomeness in the flesh (or DVD-ROM)

Another game gets released well before its scheduled release date.

comments?

Do you think this will have a huge hit on the sales?

on sales? not really. if people are gonna pirate, people are gonna pirate.........whether the game is released or not.

the game was quite fun when I played the demo through three times.

it does piss me off that games are getting leaked early, however. give the guys a chance, come on.

It's been out for over a week illegally but this isn't new, happens ALL the time. Heck, Splinter Cell 2 for X-box has been on the net for 2 1/2 weeks now and it gets officially released a week from now.

Has there been a game that hasn't been leaked in the last 2 or 3 years?

People who are going to buy it, will still buy it.

People who never were going to buy it, still wont buy it.

In the end, they get the same sales with or without warez.

my thoughts exactly.

so my roommate got the leak, its impressive

these taken on medium settings

AMD Athlon 1200+
ATI Radeon 9600 Pro
512 PC-133

runs silky smooth

Pretty impressive, considering it's medium settings and that it runs what can only be assumed as 30+ frames per second. Not too bad, looks pretty good. I've heard that highest settings on Far Cry requires some majorly new shit.

yeah thats why im recommending it to people who dont have top notch systems

it is still a solid play even without top settings

The impression that I got from playing the demo is that it is yet another cookie-cutter FPS. It seemed like I was playing SoF2 again.

I enjoyed it because it was different! How many FPS have you seen that allow you to see the end of the level from the first point you start at? How many FPS have you seen with that much foliage? Prior to Vietnam's release, no game (as far as I'm concerned) had that much trees and plants everywhere. You practically ran right up onto enemies. They didn't see you and you didn't see them. And then there was a FIRE FIGHT! (willem defoe impression)

I thought it was pretty fresh for the genre

this is not cookie cutter.... the AI is so damn sexy it blows my mind

the levels are diverse enough to keep you interested

there is NOTHING that sucks about this game

it is the ONLY FPS you will ever need.... till HL2

Great game... I love it.

a must buy ! ... i get it next week

I bought it. Awesome game, huge too. Damn thing took up 4GB to install on 5 install CDs.

Actually, my only complaint is about the AI. How many times did you hear "where'd he go?" Plus, I didn't see anyone running for cover much, just some running around and shooting. OTherwise, it's a great game.

i hope i get it today :)

Ugh... I hope someday soon that more devs decide to make games on DVD's....

*sigh*

This game "looks" promising but how is the game play. Looks as every bit as deep as HL2. The depth to this game "looks" incredible. I need to check this out.

From what I've heard, they actually did release this in Europe on DVD. It's only us poor North American saps who get it on a grand total of 81 CD's. :)

Really? While it's not perfect, I love the AI. I love when they start running away from me, shooting while on the run, duck for cover behind something and stay there to fight.

This is definitely one of the most immersive FPS's I've ever played. The environment really feels like an actual "character", and is really a part of the game. It's not just background like most games.

Gameplay is excellent as well, and it's far more difficult than most FPS's. I highly recommend this if you're looking for a good single player FPS. I haven't played multiplayer though, and have heard mixed reactions on that aspect.

AI seems mostly good to me. Rarely will the enemy stand in place to fire. Often they are shooting and scooting, especially the elite guys later in the game.

i have the same feeling like when i played halflife a long time ago .. for all shooter fans , A MUST BUY they really deserve it !

the AI is outstanding , the gfx is awesome, the sound is realistic ... and the atmosphaere is just scary

I take it there is a CDROM and a DVD version?

Here in the UK we have both versions don't know about the USA.

On high settings you need a gig of ram no matter what graphics card or processer you run - I was using XP3200+ and a Radeon 9800XT but until I changed 512MB to 1GB the game stuttered.

The game runs fine for me with 768 MB. 1 GB would be nice but it doesn't stutter at ALL with 768 :)

2GB enough? Troll.

Just finished this one, Jesus Christ that was some amazing shit. I remember feeling bad for spending so much money on my GFX5900 mid last year but this has made it well worth the price. Shit, the game is incredible, the graphics, the nostalgic 80's action movie style and amazing soundtrack (effects and music) just make this a must have game. Gonna go back in and use those Hang-gliders, fuck!! This game rules!!

I agree. This game is awesome. Very impressed.

Just got the demo in Maximum PC. I can hardly wait to try this badboy out!

got teh full version it kicks ass till you get to the creatures, then it gets kinda lame. but still fun.

If you love the game, play around with the editor... you can make huge mountains to hang glide from, or watch the mutants battle it out with the mercs

its awesome!

Deflok, the 1.1 patch to Far Cry will now also let you use Pixel Shaders 2.0 with the GeForce FX cards, which makes for some great texture effects.

nice

haha, i just made the coolest shit happen in the sandbox

I had a boat drop out of the air and hit a lever that launches a merc up into the air, and then i try to shoot him with a mounted rocket launcher


PULL!

Definetely not a cookie cutter game.

If you played the demo, the AI is a major selling point.

Also unlike other FPS, this game is very hard.

this is the best game ive played in a long while.

i was lucky cause i placed a preorder for the dvd but the store ran out of copies before they even filled the preorders. :/ i got mine tho. the ability to hide in the grass and watch as mercs walk 2 feet in front of you as amasing. and i think the creatures are cool apart from the huge ones. its a change of pace. you have to change tactics completely.
