Yes please

In Far Cry® 4, players find themselves in Kyrat, a breathtaking, perilous and wild region of the Himalayas struggling under the regime of a despotic self-appointed king. Using a vast array of weapons, vehicles, and animals, players will write their own story across an exotic open-world landscape.

“Following the success of Far Cry 3, we wanted to take the franchise to the next level and create a game that will surprise players and exceed fans’ expectations,” said Dan Hay, Executive Producer. “Given the unique setting, we feel Far Cry® 4 will stand out as a top first-person shooter and we’re eager to reveal more about the game in the coming months.”

Customers who pre-order Far Cry® 4 will receive the Limited Edition which includes Hurk’s Redemption, a series of three action-packed single-player missions featuring the popular character Hurk from Far Cry 3’s DLC. The Limited Edition also includes Hurk’s signature harpoon gun called “The Impaler”. The pre-order is now available at all major retailers.

 Fans can tune into Ubisoft’s Media Briefing at E3 for an exclusive first look at Far Cry® 4.

Oh shit this game is gonna be bananas

I'm in when they confirm the bow is back

Far Cry 3 is one of my favorite games of the last console generation. I'm really excited by this news.

[Himu]

Still haven't played FC3. Have Blood Dragon but don't like it. Don't like FC2, either.

[brob]

A tacky swedish house dj subjugating swarthy natives in the himalayas is fairly unique I suppose. Hoping for a early twist that drags the game into blood dragon territory.

[Great Rumbler]

Blood Dragon 2, please.

they could always make drugs a bigger part of the game.  watch dogs is doing that to explain the kooky side missions where you're a robot spider or playing carmageddon.

far cry 3 should've gone off the rails.  the total recall idea the giantbomb guys talked about would've been awesome.

Far Cry 4 is designed, developed and produced by a multicultural team of various religious faiths and beliefs.

lol at this boxart edit:



I would play that game.

[Himu]

Should be Weapons Factory.

[Rufus]

Himalayas sounds cool. I bet there'll be Yetis.

Not sure I like the wacky villain angle this series is taking, but if that's what sells and they continue to travel the globe I'm all for it.

[Himu]

Someone tell me what the cover even means.

[demi]

It means the gays are evil. I'm not spelling it out for you.

[Eel O'Brian]

Purple = royalty

[Himu]

What is the meaning behind the haircut?

[demi]

That evil gays have good haircuts.

[benjipwns]

(Image removed from quote.)

Did I ever tell you the definition of flamboyancy?

[Himu]

That evil gays have good haircuts.

That haircut is shit though.

[Eel O'Brian]

That dude might not even be white. There are plenty of ethnic people with naturally blond hair, and it takes about ten seconds of googling to suss that out. Purple is the color of royalty, and all that says to me is the villain dude has set himself up as some sort of dictator king. Who's doing evil shit like making people hold grenades. And sometimes a shitty haircut is just a shitty haircut.

I mean, I could be wrong, but I doubt they're dense enough to make a gay white racist their big bad and risk the backlash of organized boycotts and chain stores refusing to carry it.

Don't let me stop any reflexive hackle-raising, though!

[Himu]

The thing about the royalty and him being rich is obvious. But why is he petting a guy with a grenade in his hand? The whole thing is stupidly hilarious and it's telling how they went from the great character designs of Farcry 3 (especially the villain with the mohawk) and main character of Blood Dragon to....rich guy surrounded by guns and a slave soldier. Complete downgrade, artistically, in every single way.

[Eel O'Brian]

He's just a dumb cartoon villain, like the 1980s Marvel Comic mohawk dude from FC3 x10

[Himu]

But mohawk dude at least had a compelling design behind him.

[Rufus]

And he was compellingly creepy. His boss was really boring by comparison.

Based on a Far Cry 4 preorder screen that popped up on Uplay before being quickly taken offline, that guy is the bad guy, and it's your job to take him down. "Hidden in the majestic Himalayas lies Kyrat, a country steeped in tradition and violence," the game description stated. "You are Ajay Ghale. Traveling to Kyrat to fulfill your mother's dying wish, you find yourself caught up in a civil war to overthrow the oppressive regime of dictator Pagan Min."

[Great Rumbler]

Gaje Ghale (Nepali: गजे घले) VC ( 1 August 1918 – 28 March 2000) was a Nepalese Gurkha recipient of the Victoria Cross, the highest and most prestigious award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces.

[Himu]

If you can run Farcry 3 Blood Dragon really well, will you get similar results with Farcry 3?

[Human Snorenado]

Blood Dragon 2, please.

Yeah, wake me up when that happens.

[Joe Molotov]

AJ Gale fightan some Pagan Men up in herr. Is that a Kryptonite-tipped RPG?

[a slime appears]

Hey, guys. The game is racist.

[Great Rumbler]

Pagan Min (21 June 1811 – 14 March 1880), was the ninth king of the Konbaung dynasty of Burma.

[a slime appears]

That's pretty racist too.

[Cerveza mas fina]

Look up history to justify some shit in a game brehs

[Purple Filth]

And he was compellingly creepy.

and based on a the actor himself (who can be as creepy).

[Himu]

[Great Rumbler]

It's the exact same engine and most of the same assets, just with some crazy colors and glowing neon in Blood Dragon.

Yes. Why wouldn't you? Far Cry 3 came out earlier than Blood Dragon.

[Rufus]

OK, I'm in.

[Rufus]

Sigh, Ubisoft.

[Eel O'Brian]

I'm excited to play Far Cry 3ish!

[Bebpo]

Haven't played a FC since FC1, but I got this for free in the Nvidia 970/980 deal.  Looks like Uncharted 2 FPS but Ubisoft so dunno. 

Embargo'd reviews aren't a great sign after AC:U

Don't waste your time on this garbage, play Blood Dragon instead.

It's more like Assassin's Creed x Crysis.

Yup. Far Cry 3 was good fun outside of the side activity cruft common to all Ubisoft games. FC4 looks much the same.

[demi]

Both FC3 and Blood Dragon were good, damn haters

[Eel O'Brian]

I would always just run over the sharks with wave runners until they died

To be perfectly honest; i liked the side activities. The island is beautiful and there are lots of vistas to drink in, the hunting was fun (cassowaries, punching sharks in the face).

Capturing outposts is fun too, I love the options of approach you were given.

I'll take the freedom of play FC3 gives you over some 80s nostalgia dickmilking anyday.

Outposts were the meat of the game, to me. I meant stuff like the several types of collectibles and score 'challenges'. The races were OK though.

looking forward to some elephondling with my bros

[Yo! Shinobi]

Anyone knows when Uplay games unlock? I got this for free with my 970...

[Sho Nuff]

Unlocked, and I am playing it right now on the PS4. I really wanted to play in co-op mode, but apparently you need to use uplay, and even though I signed in, it claims my accounts haven't been linked, so it's impossible to see any of my friends playing the game. Wow, great user experience here guys

[Eel O'Brian]

The alternate ending easter egg is great!

[Yo! Shinobi]

Got back from work, and this shit still hasn't unlocked for me on Uplay.

[Eel O'Brian]

Autodrive is such an awesome option when you're having a rolling shootout

[Yo! Shinobi]

Fuck you Ubisoft!!! I'm one of the Nvidia Promo Code via new GPU who cannot launch the game still. Been with customer support and nothing. Huge thread over at Ubisoft forums.
