Far Cry 2 Trailers: A Day in the Life

by Blake Ellison, Sep 23, 2008 11:47am PDT

Ubisoft has released a series of trailers from Far Cry 2, the shooter sequel for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Five videos come together to show one day and one night of in-game time while dispatching roughly 30 bad guys and handing out at least 25 explosions.

The demo-less open-world game, in the works at Ubisoft's Montreal studio, will hit North America on October 21 and Europe on October 24.

For sunset, night and sunrise videos, follow through.

I wish they'd make a game like that, where you could actually play a sniper or use a sniper rifle, and not be spotted by the AI 5 miles away the second you put your head above a stone. Not even when you freaking shoot that rife of yours, I doubt many of us are trained in sniper spotting and dynamics to locate a hidden sniper after he shoots from a big distance (especially in lush environaments), if you're not lucky enough to see a muzzle flash, the time he pulls the trigger.

Probably can't be done in games anyway, but making the AI a bit less GPS like could be done.

But then again, I'm a fan of the old Rainbow Six and Ghost Recon series, so I'm probably too hardcore for the major crowd.

When he shot the "house" with the rocket launcher, there wasn't stuff flying around like in crysis. So every cardboard thing is persistent?

I wonder how the game will run compared to Crysis. Hopefully can get 60fps on my 4870.

I wish the player's health didn't automatically recharge. I hate that mechanic. I'm really beginning to think that almost all games are easier today then they were, say, 5 years ago even. The concept of 'dying' in a game seems to be fading out of fashion with game designers. I guess in the sense that you can just save and load your game at any point, this design change makes sense...but I hope the game has a hard mode without recharging health.

am i the only who's not excited for this game !!! i mean seriously, every time they release a video, i try to hype and convince myself that this is going to be a great game but looking at the videos just always get me yawning. However, the only cool thing i found was the shot enemies and crawling on the grounds and their teammates trying to help them

I wonder what graphics card and settings they were using here. Was this a 'High' or 'Medium' setting?

One thing I noticed is that the boats do not seem to make any engine sounds, or very very low ones unless you turn around and face the engine.

This game's graphics just don't look any good to me. Maybe it's the dull coloring, because the game engine seems like it's doing all the sfx that other engines do.
