Multiplat Far Cry 5

[palmomagpie]

Anyone excited for this?

What are your hopes for the setting? Rumours are that it's going to be Western themed, which is pretty silly with Red Dead coming out this year. But who knows! Loved Primal but hope it returns to guns/blowing stuff up Far Cry

Bypassed the last one, did nothing for me, hopefully a good theme and game.

 

[palmomagpie]

Hope so! I swear Ubisoft said at some stage that they were taking a break on Assassins Creed and Far Cry so they could refresh and not redo the same thing over again, so hopefully this one is a new concept. The differences between 1,2 and 3 were pretty huge, so hope they do it again

 

[Soups]

Yes please. Hopefully back to number 3 level.

 

[dwwaino]

I'm definitely in but I hope they shake up the formula a bit. Not a great deal because it works but Ubisoft do exactly the same thing every game.

 

[The Big Sauce]

A lot of press have been talking down the western rumour.

 

[Dancing Potato]

Far Cry 3 was great. Far Cry 4 is objectively even better but when played in succession after the others it's familiarity makes it a bit of a bore.

Hoping for a real shake up and that they do something totally left field. Open world horror shooter sounds good to me.

First person western adventure would be fun though

Agree it would but with Red Dead 2 coming out it's not really a market for FC to bother with.

 

[Mancey]

I don't think its out till 2018 anyway so probably not a big rdr clash

Also heard rumours of a possible war setting

 

[Soft Downhill Skier]

It would want to be different.

It will be released 2 years since the last one, the shortest gap in the series.

Hardly a series lay off.

Was FC having a lay-off? Thought that was just AC.

Would be ballsy to go western with Red Dead coming out.

I thought farcry 3 was good, couldn't get into 4, but absolutely loved Primal, best one IMO.

 

[Quivorir]

Weren't primal and 4 exactly the same game play wise?

Same map.

 

[dwwaino]

Besides the outline of the map 4 was closer to 3 than Primal ever was to 4.

 

[G Mus]

Hopefully it carries the online co op from 4 that wasn't in Primal at least

 

[sante]

The game doesn't seem to change enough for mine. Played one, played them all.

 

[ioppolo]

Not generally Ubisofts go to but post apocalyptic would please a lot I'd say. Me included.

 

[palmomagpie]

Few people online badgering up that they want Far Cry Australia haha I don't think it would work here unless they went with a Tomorrow When The War Began scenario, Australia invaded by an enemy force or something like that

 

[pantskyle]

Will be interesting to see when and where it is set, western will get compared to Red Dead, post apocalyptic will get the Fallout comparisons.

 

[Jatz]

Only played FC4 but absolutely loved that! Looking forward to seeing more of this one.

ZzzzzZZzzz

Far Cry : Armadale

Loved 3 and 4, couldn't play Primal for more than a few hours. Depends on the setting for this game. Horizon has also raised the bar for this type of game so I'll keep my expectations low.
