Today, Ubisoft® announced that gamers will experience the chaos, unpredictability and ferociousness of the Far Cry franchise with Far Cry® 5 on PlayStation®4 Pro computer entertainment system, PlayStation®4, the Xbox One family of devices, including Project Scorpio, and Windows PC. Set in America for the first time, in Montana, players will have total freedom to navigate this serene-looking yet deeply twisted world solo or entirely in two-player co-op as they fight for survival and freedom, when the game releases on February 27, 2018. Development for Far Cry 5 is being led by Ubisoft Montreal*.
As the new junior deputy of fictional Hope County, Montana, players will find that their arrival accelerates a years-long silent coup by a fanatical doomsday cult, the Project at Eden's Gate, igniting a violent takeover of the county. Caught off guard and drawn into a power struggle, players must disrupt the carefully laid plans of the Project at Eden’s Gate and fan the fires of resistance to help liberate the Hope County community and themselves.
Under siege and cut off from the rest of the world, players will join forces with residents of Hope County and form the Resistance. The fight against the cult will take players to unique locations throughout Hope County that provide different gameplay experiences. During their journey, players can fly planes to engage cult forces in aerial dogfights across Big Sky Country. While tracking down cult members and gathering resources for survival across farmland, forests, mountains and rivers, players can get behind the wheel of iconic American muscle cars, big rigs, ATVs and boats. Vehicles also provide refuge when under attack by animals or as a way to quickly escape when things don’t go as planned.
To take down the cult, players will need to utilize any and all weapons at their disposal, including ranged weapons such as guns and grenades and melee weapons like a sledgehammer or baseball bat. Additionally, players can recruit Guns for Hire from a large cast of characters, or even Fangs for Hire, specialized animals like bears and cougars to complement players’ playstyles whether they’re going in stealthily or forcefully. How players approach each situation and the chaos they create in Far Cry 5 is up to them. Far Cry 5 will also see the return of the map editor, giving players the opportunity to create and play an infinite amount of new playgrounds. The map editor will include new features that add a new dimension to the content created by fans, with more details coming soon.
Additionally, players on PlayStation®4 system will get free content with purchase of the game at launch. Players on Xbox and PC systems will have the same content available through the Ubisoft Club.

Really? Pretty sure the race to create the first atomic bomb between United States and Germany during World War 2 wasn't based on religious reasons. And I'm pretty sure most weapons of war have been thought up and created by scientists for non-religious reasons. Archimedes used his prowess in mathematics, physics, engineering, and invention to create weapons of war. For example, the Claw of Archimedes decimated the Roman Republic during the Siege of Syracuse between 214-212 BC. In other words, don't act like science is innocent of bloodshed and races to created scientific inventions did not result in the death of billions.

"Christians are supposed to NOT defend themselves, but to turn the other cheek when being slapped in the face."
That is probably the dumbest thing I've read all morning. Luke 22:36-38 for one. Why have a sword if you aren't going to use it to defend yourself? Turning the other cheek is a deescalation response. It is NOT to allow someone to kill your child in front of you and to do nothing to prevent it. Only an idiot would believe Jesus would accept that.

Christians not violent? What fucking bizarro world is this taking place in?
USA is the most Christian country in the world, and also has the most gun violence/deaths.
Hey and guess what, I've told dead baby jokes before! I guess that makes me as bad as a christian who has bombed a clinic somehow?
If the USA was "the most Christian country in the world", then there would not be no murder at all. Christians are supposed to NOT defend themselves, but to turn the other cheek when being slapped in the face. I know, I know, not very healthy and not typical human behavior. But love and peace are the very center of Christian religion. Therefore, just like socialism, the Christian religion has many great ideas and ideals but is far, far away from the real world and the typcal ape behavior of homo sapiens.
Ah, whatever. As a very lovely and intelligent girl tells me very often: "Enjoy the sunshine, adore every flower - this makes life worth living." Good approach - concentrate on the small things and forget about our world being driven by greed and the lust for power. It works until shit hits the fan right infront of you.

I'm Christian, and I'm not violent. I don't even own a gun.
You shouldn't stereotype. That's very intolerant.

Anyway, hate is not a bad thing when it is directed towards bad. Hate also doesn't automatically mean violence. It just means an intense or passionate dislike.

Actually, Noah lived for 950 years (2870 BCE - 2020 BCE).

There were two recorded occasions when he cleared the temple of peddlers and money changers. He was pretty upset, and rightfully so. By the time he arrived, the temple had turned into a mall of commerce. The religious leaders didn't like what Jesus had done. He interrupted their thriving business ventures.

That's the form of Christianity many hate. It is also the form of Christianity that I hate.
So much hate! Did Jesus hate a lot or something?
Beamer wrote on May 26, 2017, 18:35:
Seriously, though, Montana just elected a Congressman that believes Noah lived to be 600. Not only does he believe this, he uses it as proof that Americans shouldn't retire. We should work till we die.
I know I said it already, but upon learning this yesterday my mind literally broke.

I don't see how that supports your argument.

That's the church, not the religion -- you were talking about the religion. In the Sermon on the Mount Jesus tells everyone not to call other people names, to love your enemies and to turn the other cheek.
I was talking about both - first you disagree and say it doesnt matter.. now you reverse that and basically repeat what I said in the first place, as if you have some new argument..

christianity was certainly co-opted by Rome and quickly became a tool of the state - but the original religion itself was not founded by a Warlord, and it wasnt originally designed as a philosophy of conquest - that only appeared via the political manipulations of its numerous revisionists
again, give me a break.. i know you desperately, so desperately want to be "right" and "win" this "debate" ... but just give up already, your game is so weak and so transparent... its a fucking joke
