	Protip it's FarCry, a game about a Hawaiian shirt wearing dude fighting mutants, not opfor/americas army/rb6-before-consoles. I'm all for realistic games but that has never really been what the series has been about, sometimes you just want each red barrel to cause a fuckoffbig explosion and ignoring everything else because a weapon model is mirrored is just silly.

	I haven't been impressed by what I've seen. Sure it looks good, but they keep talking about realistic weapons and physics, yet the videos show just the opposite. You can't shoot a tree and cut it in half (unless you have a gatling gun and several thousand rounds of ammo), and if you look at the videos, the weapons are backwards (shells ejecting from wrong side of gun), which I personally can't stand. And there's no way shooting a crate full of ammo is going to set it off like a box of fireworks catching fire. All good points, not to mention that the explosions are far from real, and way too over the top. Those grenade explosions are WAY off. I've thrown many grenades and they don't look like a fucking fireball, like in this video. A real grenade produces almost no flash.

	The trailer is looking really good, I'm stoked. I wonder how the MP will play out?

	The Dunia engine is using only 2-3% of the original CryEngine code. Cool, I didn't know that. It's really good to see what other developers can do when they have little to go on. Lookin Good!

	Why is this game called Far Cry 2, when in fact its developed by a completely different company and has no relation to the story of Far Cry?? Cuz it'll sell more copies due to name recognition. Anyway I have to say that the Crytek2 engine is underoptimized, runs like a hog on top end systems and in general is a piece of shit. .. and it has no relation to FC2 either. The Dunia engine is using only 2-3% of the original CryEngine code.

	I don't get why they're showcasing the game on the 360 if PC is the lead SKU.

	Hmmm in this vid this game is looking pretty sweet, going to keep an eye on this one. http://uk.gamespot.com/video/944401/6194167/far-cry-2-e3-2008-stage-show-demo PS remember this video is from the 360 and this game was designed for the PC and ported to console.

	I was iffy on this game, but since you have taken that stance on such an important matter, I think I will buy it. This message was edited at Jul 15, 21:44.

	Unfortunately I have to boycott this game. It looks brilliant but Ubisoft refuse to release this game on Steam in the UK (despite it being available in the US). It's the same with Assassin's Creed, the Tom Clancy games and the Prince of Persia trilogy. When Ubisoft can act like a proper business I can act like a proper customer. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Founder of the "I Hate Smiley Fitz" society Remember: Riley has autism.
