Farcry (360)

[~Latency~]

Did any of you guys get this?

It ran POOP on my pc and kept crashing so thinking of buying it, only 2-12 in multiplayers I think though which is a bit few ; [

Went into GAME and got a new live subscription today but thinking of buying something tomorrow, payday ftw xd

I'm thinking of getting it.. but i'm on 2 sides atm.

Read around on the gamespot forums for the game and xbox.com alot of people aren't too pleased with it.

I will probably pick it up and if its crap i will take it back simple as

The IGN review is up 8.3 their words on the AI ''The AI is boardering on stupid''.

Also the visuals are exactly the same as the xbox version except they now support HIdef and the water is the only thing improved.

They said overall its the multiplayer which will keep you coming back.

I don't know what to get.. Revenge/Farcry then again i might just resist the urge and not buy either its just the lush looking jungle on farcry that draws me too it.. want an out door shooter.

you should probably go for BF if it's the online you're going for or BR

I played BF2:MC demo last night.. well lets just say the PC version is lightyears ahead of this game.

If the multiplayer is anything like the original Farcry on Xbox it is going to be a game well worth buying. I have logged 100's of hours playing it on my Xbox since it came out, I can't see the X360 being any worse so it will probably be my next purchase.

The MC version which is for consoles is defo not upto par with the PC version that is for sure, it is by no means a bad game though and the visuals are pretty good.

Yep the visuals are nice but its just the overall gameplay that sucks ass.. its shite really shite.

Apprently the multiplayer on farcry is extremely laggy.. but im going to pick it up tomorrow.

I hope you are wrong about the lag, I have been really looking forward to this game as it is my ideal kind of FPS, fast and frantic with no silly weapon managment systems or overly intrusive HUD.

The graphics etc are really nice, played single player a bit - it seems decent, npcs are a bit retarded though on normal mode!

Tried online mode for 5min, the graphics seemed pooper than offline for some reason and it was laggy : [ didn't read manual and couldn't understand which mode was pure deathmatch, will try it a bit later

Fun multiplayer ;]

Some players seem to be a bit jerky, doesn't feel like I have lag though - the players are easy pickings

I'm not wrong.. i got the game today.

I'm enjoying the singleplayer story but the multiplayer is fucked beyond imagination.. the lag is god awful and the graphics are even more dumbed down then the singleplayer which i might add is not next gen. The animations suck arse big time.

But like i said i'm enjoying the singleplayer portion of the game so i'm happy with it i guess.

Sad to hear that Guess I will just wait for them to add the Xbox version to the backwards compatabilty list so I can play that version online.

im taking this for a refund found it too be too similar to the pc ver, yes the water looks stunning but pap fps in all

 

[Aada]

I knew what to expect before i bought the game but i enjoyed Farcry on the PC and never played the xbox version.

Also 2 games in 1 sort of sealed the buy for me.. i've had a few multiplayer matches tonight with no lag so i guess its to do with the host.

Predator mode is great fun

 

[Aada]

well i was up till 4am last night playing multiplayer.. it was a blast.. no lag or anything.

I thought this was really fun, setting traps etc good LIVE game imo.

 

[Yaka]

didnt bother playing it on live, ah well

Ahh sweet, just like the Xbox version then, the multiplayer is what made it.
