I don't know much about this game other than the demo is awsome! Since my video card isn't supported it took me more than an hour to get the best picture w/o any corruption, but it was more than worth it! Big maps, beautiful scenery, the best graphics I've ever seen, rag-doll physics... everything you could wish for (except jetpacks and disk shooters). Best of all is the game runs on a scripting lanuage, so you can even modify the demo! (I tweaked the damage values to make them more realistic but that's about all I've done.)<br><br>Too bad I can't max out the graphics and get all of the water reflections and everything. (oh, and there's a console command to cel shade everything if you'd rather play in a cartoon environment. :P)<br><br>*edit* here's some awe inspiring screenshots <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://forums.ubi.com/messages/message_ ... l&id=zyssf" target="top">CLICK</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>www.farcry-thegame.com <p><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-size:large;">C</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:orange;font-size:large;">O</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:green;font-size:large;">L</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-size:large;">O</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:indigo;font-size:large;">R</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:violet;font-size:large;">S</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:pink;font-size:xx-large;">!</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub141.ezboard.com/bxmenclan.sho ... ckRider</A> at: 1/28/04 7:11 pm<br></i>

I downloaded it the other day and it truly is a beautiful game. I played for maybe 15-20 minutes (due to CoD addiction). But i plan to go back and play it here real soon <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.limalan.org/images/Sigs/Mega ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>"Come Get Some Dirty Old Men, If ya can hang !"</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

Bought FarCry today, more updates as follows, but I wanted to pass on info, for AMD64 owners, there is and will be, for all FarCry owners, a FarCry64 Beta going on, yup to fully utilize the capabilities of the AMD64, pretty sweet, huh?<br> <p></p><i></i>

I've heard almost nothing but praise for this game. I've not played the demo yet.<br><br>But the game has shipped. (and the obligatory release patch...) Lots of good stuff coming out lately. <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub141.ezboard.com/bxmenclan.sho ... ambit>XMEN Gambit</A>&nbsp; <IMG HEIGHT=10 WIDTH=10 SRC="http://www.xmenclan.org/images/x.gif" BORDER=0> at: 3/26/04 1:43 pm<br></i>

arrr! she's a mighty good game!<br>first life, had quite an adventure <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>and barely scratched the paint, well except for the paint of the buggy I got to drive before they finally caught up to me enmass, driving takes a bit of getting used to, especially if your spoiled from 3rd person driving(like me, who now makes a mental note to look for that setting) I think this might be a better sneak game than splinter cell(though no split jumps, which are for girls anyways :P) binoculars are great fun though. can't wait to try this on a team multi-player game, but alas, I must rest <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>(btw pay attention to the install instructions of turning off all other programs while installing, dunno which one that I was running did it, but my first install was bad, and gave me the impression that the game consisted of watching a splash screen until the end of time)<br>also, make sure to run the configuration program, before starting, orthe first time you load the game will take a loooong time(hey, I set it the first time, it was after the 2nd installation, I was just a tad impatient, and HAD TO KNOW IF IT WORKED OR NOT) also, with 2.2ghz on a 400mhz fsb, it was brutal, ran smooth enough once I turned antistropic filtering down from 4o to 2, still kept fsaa maxed out, with no much more than a hiccup, BUT all my other settings(details etc, were on medium) might try to bump up everything to high or very high, just as a sort of "burn-in"<br>If you like FPS games,(though I admit, on ly 3 game types DM, TDM, and assault, makes multi-player look a little slim) with open mapping and modding(they call it the sandbox, and if I get into it I"ll letcha know) pick this one up asap!<br>must sleep now, laters all!<br>Nilk <p></p><i></i>
