I SERIOUSLY hope it doesn't take a clip and a half to drop someone like it did in Farcry 2. That one was okay, but having to spray people with lead was really stupid.

Might consider looking into this one.

Spent hours trying to get it to work in SLI and failed.. tried everything you see posted on the forums, nothing works

From what I did get to play, it's a pretty good game! If you know the Far Cry series, you know what to expect.

I been playing it since release, I been really taking my time with it, want to enjoy a game other than a sports title thoroughly, this is my warmup for GTA V, it's definitely got me feelin like I been missing out not gaming these last few years

so far I really like it, I do wish the firearms combat was more simulation based like Battlefield 3, it feels too arcadey like Call of Duty.... sure you have to have somewhat of a strategy when you go into battle, but there's not much satisfaction shooting guys once you get to that.
When I play Battlefield Multiplayer, I feel extreme satisfaction knowing I've worked hard to set up the perfect parameters for my attacks and shots, especially with snipers since nothing is really a simple "point and shoot long as it's in your crosshairs it'll catch a bullet type of arcade shit"

Well I'm no expert on FPS games, but from my short time playing both Battlefield 3 and Call of Duty series, the difference is clear, one simulates real life more realistically than the other.
COD is like let me say it in a way that makes sense to me since I rarely play FPS games, I like racing simulations and sports titles.
So COD is like Need for Speed and Battlefield 3 is more like Forza, not quite Gran Turismo yet that Battlefield 4 is supposed to be...

From all the things I've read on the blogs and forums about these two games, that seems to be the general opinion of the gaming community as well.
For a bunch of obvious reasons for example the weapons in Battlefield actually feel like they would in real life, they have weight to them there is bullet drop over longer distances, destructible environments, vehicles etc.....


Anyway, guys about FarCry I gotta ask since I've never played 1 nor 2, were these games mod friendly ? like did the first 2 games in the series get mods from the community or no ? and if yes, how long until we start seeing mods for FarCry 3 ?
I'm really needing that Auto Loot mod for frigs sake, I spend way too much time trying to hover over the dead enemy precisely enough so that I don't swap his weapon for mine accidentally while trying to loot.... just one of those things makes you wonder if game testers were anything more than 14 year old kids

On that note, does it still take half a magazine to kill an enemy like in FC2? I hated wasting an entire LMG mag to kill just 3 people.

^based more on stealth vs FC2 rambo style

3 shots can kill regular soldiers, takes 30 ak-47 rounds to kill fat dude in armor

guns need more recoil; fuck I just finished the first island stupid knife part took forever

How out of date is your PC? It would have to be really out of date to be worse than PS3 or 360.
