Title: Were there every any mods/fan patches for farcry2?
Post by: GilloD on February 07, 2010, 07:44:08 PM
If I could change like 2 things bout this game it'd be one of my Top 5 of ever. But the infinitely respawning enemies at checkpoints and the Malaria make this such a contemptable exercise. Did anyone ever patch/mod the thing?

For whatever reason - unlike with Far Cry 1 and Crysis - Crytek chose to not release an SDK, so the modding scene is basically nonexistent except for what people can do with the map editor. Shame, because the engine would lend to some pretty amazing mods

What makes even less sense is that they released a patch for the infinite respawning enemies on 360, but not on PC  :(

lul.

Anyway. If they could fix the enemies, maybe do some minor damage adjustments and swing out the Malaria, this game would be so good :(

Oh shit, for reals? About time to get this out of my backlog then, as it looks like it's finally playable.

Wait, what?!  Are you serious?  They patched the 360 version?  Damn, that almost makes me want to try that version despite the superior PC visuals.  That was my number one complaint with the game and it ruined the experience for me.

How does it work on 360?

Also, I always thought this game would have been fantastic for CO-OP play.

How does it even look on the 360 in comparison to PC? I've never actually seen it in person

A friend of mine brought it over once and it holds up reasonably well, actually.  They basically dialed down some of the LOD stuff and lowered the quality of the shadows.

That must have been very recent, as it was still the same shit when I played it (a few months ago).
