Far Cry 2

Indeed.

OR...enemies could just stay dead for a reasonable length of time. I found the respawn rates very annoying, and also how enemies could just eat bullets...

But I did just love the look, feel and sound of this game.
 
Yeah, the graphics is some of the best I've seen in a while and Crysis doesn't count, because of the system requirements.

I did however notice a tree branch with some leafs in the sky with no tree attached at one stage. :eek:
 
I actually preferred the look of FarCry2. Ther ewas just something very rich that held my attention more than Crysis. + they scored big points for delivering it on relatively good specs.

That Dunia Engine is amazing. The lighting especially:eek:
 
Not the kind of game I can sit back and devote a few hours too. Just short run and gun spells from time to time to relive stress lol. Graphics are great and immersive but the story line stinks and the lack of mission variety makes it rather repetitive

I totally agree..i was so looking forward to this game and then i started playing it...Really didn't enjoy it and every mission felt repetitive:(

This game should have been the best game of 2008..but it just wasn't!!
 
i don't know it looks pretty, but thats how far it went from my side. in general what one might call tech demo to see how uber your computer is without begin something more...
 
Damit relieve not relive *facepalm*

Although on a few occasions I found myself stressing out. Nothing the trusty flamethrower ultimately couldn't sort out. :D
 
Definately one of the best looking games of 2008, but playing it through once was testing my patience. Gameplay was too repetitive and the storyline needs some work. The flow of the story was lost when completing all the buddy missions.
 
I played the demo but I just can't stand the "blurred" graphics, anyone know what I'm talking about? Sort of like an overexposed image.!
 
They've put amazing amounts of detail into this game - not just the gfx. It plays freely and I've enjoyed doing 2 or so missions a day... as a breather from everything else.

There's one cheat in this game though... "KILL IT! KILL IT WITH FIRE!" ... I love how molitov cocktails/flame thrower etc. can light up the grass and take out just about everything in its wake. Often, I find myself running around aimlessly setting everything alight just to see it burn. Amazing.
 
Yeah, the fire was awsome. Just watch out when kneeling down and firing your bazooka in long grass :D:D.
 
In a developer interview they talk about some of the games shortcomings and why it ended up being so. I don't have the link but it was on gameinformer's website. My biggest gripes were the stupid checkpoint system and poor enemy animations (which is strange coming from ubisoft ala assassins creed).
