Far Cry Primal

Loved all the Farcry's so far, will be getting this liking the colour palette from what I've seen as well.
Re-skin or not the last one was good, holding out for much of the same for this one. Hopefully making a bow and knife from finding things will make you feel god like, yes this could be very good indeed.

Yeah, far cry with no guns, thats all we know.

Do you honestly enjoy this kind of rinse and repeat gaming?

as for saying 'it looks good', well whats the point at this stage, Ubisoft have a habit of ruining games.

What rinse and repeat gaming? We haven't seen anything of this game yet other than the general premise and some nice graphics.

And even if it does follow a similar formula, YES, I actually do like Far Cry. I thought FC2 was brilliant. FC3 made a lot of improvements, but lost much of what was special about FC2. Then FC4 was a great mix and used the improvements of FC3 while also providing the great sandbox nature of FC2 along with an interesting new setting.

These are games I like. And no matter how much you wish it wasn't true, a *lot* of other people like them as well, even if you couldn't tell because the most vocal people are always those who feel compelled to go and complain about things they aren't even interested in.

So yea, this game mixing things up with melee, spears and bows and whatnot in an Ice Age setting sounds brilliant to me.
 
Couldn't bring myself to play much of the last far cry due to the rinse and repeat gaming as some have put it. The whole Ubisoft climb towers to reveal map formula that's been in so many of there games has gotten quite old now. Its the same reason I couldn't do the last Assassins Creed too.
I really hope this new one isn't like that but time will tell.

Yeah Far Cry 2 was good, because it was different to the first.

then Far Cry 3 came dumbed down with flashing objects and hints and quicktime events for the console kiddies.

Then Far Cry 4 reskinned it with a new map and did exactly the same.

I expect more from multi million pound developers tbh, but it'll never change because the un-vocal crowd are happy playing the same games over and over and over and over (ala CoD).

I would love to be interested in it, but not when their track history says it wont be good.

There's lot of developers/publishers I'm not interested in. But I dont go and **** up discussions about them, either. I just ignore them, because it's not my thing. Some people just plain *enjoy* disliking things. I'm not that sort of person. I'd rather spend my time talking about things I *am* interested in.

Like I said, these games *are* liked. If you went by how forum postings felt, you'd think Ubisoft would be bankrupt yesterday from how awful their games are and how nobody likes them, but guess what? Many people enjoy these games. It's just vocal minorities that have nothing better to do than to talk bad about stuff they dont like that make it seem otherwise.

Bottom line - Ubisoft is not to blame for the poor posting standards on forums. If you dont like these games, cool. No problem with that. They aren't for everybody and no game is. I could have a lot of harsh words about other games/devs/publishers, but why? It's much easier to spend that effort on things I do like. Gaming has enough variety and scope right now that there's almost always something to be excited about, whoever you are and what your tastes are. Stop wasting your breath with dull, generic negativity that contributes actually nothing to any conversation or discussion and go find something to be enthusiastic about. Shouldn't be hard.

It's a public forum, people are entitled to their own opinion. Ubi have made it easy to have a low opinion of them through their despicable actions. This is a computer forum that aggregates likeminded opinions. See where I'm going with this...?
 
it looks utter rubbish, who wants to chuck spears and stones...how boring.

it should have been Far Cry 3 with Dinosaurs or a return to the 1st game, because a Far Cry game without great guns is useless, this new game still has enemy camps to liberate............yawn yawn, but at least it has no Radio Towers i suppose.
 
I think this could be good. I haven't played FC4 but the hunting bits in FC3 were good - certainly better than the shooty-base-takeover bits.

There will now be rocks and cliffs to climb in button mashing minigame. :p
 
Last game i played that was fun and involved spears was the king kong partner on ps2 (one of the few examples of film based games being good outside star wars).

Far cry 2 had to be the best, gun jamming is a mechanic far too many games overlook (even arma overlooks is) and apart from the usual issues that most big open map games that arent gta suffer it was a great game to play. They killed the gun jamming and gimped the fire mechanics in 3 for basically the same thing, but with more nsfw cutscenes than is really nessecary for a good game.
