Far Cry 3

Anyone picking this up?  I'm hoping that it's multiplayer focusing on team rewards will keep most kids away, plus I'm hoping that they'll be too preoccupied with BF3, BLOPS2, and Halo 4.  I should have Far Cry 3 for xmas.

It's reviewing very well.  I've never played FarCry but it does seem like a pretty crowded time to launch another shooter.

Cause the last one was so good. And you just know any time a game decides to abandon it's beta nothing could possibly go wrong.

I'm looking forward to playing it. The single player campaign sounds awesome, and am looking forward to messing around with the map editor too.

I got it yesterday, it is EPIC.  HUGE sandbox to play in.   Co-op was also quite fun, was a little mummied by end of night and what i remember was SUPER!  Hurry and trade-in blops while its still worth $30.

I picked it up release day but haven't played anything but some limited co-op. BF3 map drops have been eating up my time.

I picked it up on launch day and have been having a blast.
Between single player, Co-Op, multiplayer and the map editor this is one hell of a package.
They need to work on the multiplayer match system. Sometimes it can take awhile to get into a match.
Games I have played are allot more team oriented than other FPS. People actually play together and revive downed players.

I will definitely be picking it up at some point. Looks huge. I enjoyed Just Cause 2 long after I'd finished just recreating.

It's outstanding. Put right so much of what was wrong with FC2. Have only been playing single player but hopeful for MP.

 

And the map is massive. My one criticism so far is the poor viewing distance resolution. Kind of spoils the massiveness of the environment.

Cool.  Looking forward to playing this in just a couple weeks.  If anyone is interested in MP, add me  and just put 2o2p FC3 in a message.

hey FC3 people,

is there a 2 player story mode on this game? If not what does the Co-op contain? Just maps or individual missions or a modified campaign?

The co-op is a completely seperate story. It takes place 6 months before the SP story. It's 2-4 players

Are there any map creators here?

I have been working on a few.

If anyone else gets this game and wants to try out maps, send me a friend request on Xbox Live.

I have a map published called "Bridge Crossing"
Would appreciate it if some people would check it out and give some feedback.
A rating would be nice too!

Hopefully they have their server issues straightened out.  I can't find a comfortable look sensitivity in MP.  Arghh!

Items to be decoded are found in multiplayer. They are awarded at the end of the match. The better you do the better data you get.

The better data takes longer to decode, Hard drive takes 8 hours i think

You unlock Mods and experience boosts

The game is fucking awesome so far on the SP front. So much to do, so many ways to approach every situation. The co-op is ok, very linear and buggy. Its cool to play but I don't think it will get multiple playthroughs, once in every chapter will be enough. An as far as MP goes, I have yet to get into a match. I got into one once and 15 seconds later the other team all quit. It looks like it could be fun but the servers are borked and it looks like there are maybe only 2000 people total playing it online.

 

If anyone wants to do co-op or MP send me a message. Il Bunny lI is my gamertag. It goes il li in front and after the Bunny.
