If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :) -

Sadly, there will be no lions.
Sunlight permeates the leaves as you stand beneath the trees, and wildlife such as zebras roam the area, oblivious to the civil war going on around them. There won't be any deadly animals in the game; the developers decided it was more annoying than fun to have lions in addition to enemy militia to worry about.

Re: Far Cry 2
Multi-Player Hands On
Where the multiplayer gameplay stands out is in its reflection of the single-player component. Veteran level designer Hardy LeBel (Halo) has taken a slow-paced approach to Far Cry 2 multiplayer, and this approach is primarily driven by nametag displaying mechanics. Players that stand still are much harder to spot on the battlefield, whereas running reveals your icon almost immediately to other players.
There are still moments of sprinting and pitched face-to-face firefights, but they are rare. It's much more deliberately paced--creeping from bush to bush, sneaking up behind players with a flamethrower, sniping from tall towers.
While this is an interesting twist on standard multiplayer shooting, I question not only whether the game will be dominated by unseen campers frustrating players from afar, but also if this hook is enough to spice up the relative blandness of the modes. Creeping around in bushes was fun for the first few minutes, but after three hours, endlessly playing stale game types outweighed any cleverness of the design. Uprising, while certainly a welcome sign of invention, didn't feel fresh enough to warrant much of an endorsement.
Despite its interesting quirks, experienced FPS players may initially find little to get very excited about with Far Cry 2's multiplayer. Much hinges on the map editor, and the extent to which players can spice up the game with their own creativity.Member of The OS Baseball Rocket Scientists AssociationComment

Re: Far Cry 2
I'll probably still try it out at least to play the single player and check out the map editor, but it sucks they won't be releasing a demo for the game.Member of The OS Baseball Rocket Scientists AssociationComment

Re: Far Cry 2
Have the game in front of me right now. My friend got it early and is playing it at my house.
I can try to answer questions, but I really won't have it here long nor will I really know much about the game. I'll do my best though.
My quick impressions would be it seems OK. The graphics are top notch and so is the sound. Voice acting is pretty good, but the first dude you work for seems to be kind of annoying. My friend said the shooting controls are a little tight.
Ask away.I don't like the Yankees, I like the Red Sox, I don't like the Lakers, I like the Celtics, I hate the Canadiens and I love the Bruins. Soccer is the best sport on Earth, but most Americans are too ignorant to realize it. I am American.
