Far Cry 2 - New Tech Demo Videos + Pics.

It does look amazing, the burning of shrubs is really well done, whereas there isn't any fire out in the open in Crysis.

One other thing is the fully destructible trees - Crysis ones weren't all able to be destroyed!

Seeing a big wide open savana style arena on fire with trees all able to be destroyed sounds fun :D
 
The fire pictures at the end don't look in-game to me, they look more like an artists impression to me. Hope I'm wrong though.
 
The screenshot of the van with the different lighting shaders looks a bit crap. And why are all the shots jaggy as anything? Doesn't look good at all really.

We'll see how this looks at release. I can't see it making my jaw drop like Crysis did, bar has been raised.
 
Except Ubisoft had nothing to do with Crysis. Its not even the same engine.

your right! ubisoft are so much better! Vagas is an incredible game!

First i couldn't type a message just as the game started or i got stuck in the menu for ever.

Then i couldn't fire as i died or id get stuck with the reload bug and not be able to reload my gun for about 5 minutes.

Then the game desides it randomly crashs for no reason! Im going to **** you off bug.

O and thers the punkbuster which kicks people randomly for no reason at all consanstantly.

not to menchen a patch which ment that a lot of peoples mice no longer worked and we had to wait for a new patch. yeah real smart! people dont need mice in shooting games at all!

O and dont get me started on the stupid sound loop bugs where you have the god damn sound of a machine gun or someone sliding down a rope playing over and over again till you restart the game.


yeah damn they are real good at making games. I mean... who would ever think someone might actually want to fire their gun just before they die!
 
so is the fact that he gets shot in the hand and pulls a bullet out and keeps on firing like normal! come to think about it, so is the fact he can get shot at all and continue! lol.
 
Actually I do recall seeing that removing the bullet when shot and carrying on in a video a while back, gotta say it is a bit stupid, as if the bullet is always going to be in his hand - ninja bullet catching trickery failing him ?

they said there will be more animations. But still 5 or 6 animations of him pullign bullets out his body is going to get really tedious and as far as im conserned a gun jamming is just irritating.
 
yeah i can see pulling out bullets all the time is going to get quite annoying. maybe the first time it wont be a problem, but second play it will get to you.

Unless they do it similar to GoW where it only jams if you mess up trying to do a rapid reload. If its just random though then yeh, i could see that getting annoying.

Hope they dont end up taking the 'realism' thing too far.
 
Stalker engine has the best lighting EVER.

true with the lighting i often found my self not noticing the textures and finding it much more real than most games.


If they'd released a sdk soon after release i could have seen it being excellent with hi ress tex mods :(

the textures are below par so i just turn the gamma down so it's even more moody and you don't notice the textures as much but yeah would have been nice for a 3rd party to release high res textures :)
