I wasn't bothered about this game until I saw that video. Very impressive opening, like a film. Kinda reminds me of the film 'The Beach', what could have happened I mean.

just wondering, does this have full 360 controller support? just play more on my TV and this would look fantastic on a big screen

Thanks

is it possible to buy a steam code from a site and then use vpn to redeem code?

caz32 · 25 Nov 2012 at 22:35

Is this ubisoft client like steam / origin?

Kohaashi · 26 Nov 2012 at 19:44

I hope we will be able to get this on Steam on release day. I can just see me buying this on release then a week later it coming out on Steam.

Just used my AMD never settle code off a new 7950 for this at Ubishop and got a £10 voucher for pre ordering.. Nice.. it works with the Lost expeditions version not the Deluxe version..

Cards turning into a right bargain with the other game discounts as well.

I would say almost certainly yes, since Farcry 2 did.

You'll have to install uplay whatever you do.

who cares, it's one extra button to click

Rexton · 26 Nov 2012 at 22:50

does anybody know if you'll be able to activate a preorder copy from the ubishop on steam when it's released?

That shouldn't have to be there. I know it sounds petty but things like this really grind my gears and it's the same story with GFWL wich feels like i'm giving my PC HIV+ when I have to install it.

Doubtful unless there's another key we get when it goes live. The original then that small one you put into the Ubishop won't work on steam.

In a perfect world there would be only one platform, but it's just one of those things. Installing Origin to activate my copy of Battlefield 3 really ground my gears.

Yes, of course.

I'm just pointing out that it can't be a bad thing that the game is receiving a decent reception so far.

You really can't be that naive, i mean things like DA2 got rave reviews and ended up being horrific.

How many times do people have to keep falling for the gaming review website trickery for a indication of quality?

Time and time again they review crap games, give them great scores, then people complain how they've been fooled. I mean honestly ....

Both Eurogamer and Polygon have very trustworthy review methodologies, and they've given it lots of praise. I dont' think there's any reason to be as suspicious as you're being here.

Lets see who will be eating there words when the public start reviewing it

NZB · 27 Nov 2012 at 01:01

Who cares, i'd imagine that a large percentage of us here got it free anyway

Who cares to be honest...

I have just started playing Far Cry 2 for the second time after completing it years ago. Now this game is so far ahead of its time in terms of detail, graphics, the whole way you have to look after yourself with meds, vaccine, pulling bullets out etc is just amazing. :cool:

When I first played (when it was released) I found it buggy, laggy, and so on. Now that could have just been my PC which I've now upgraded but playing on it today, everything set as high as possible and its truely breath taking. Can only imagine a island that looks like something out of LOST will be even more awesome.
