FarCry 2 or Crysis?

Farcry 2 is made by ubisoft not crytek.

So what does that mean for graphics or hardware requirements? Better or worse?

Crytek are the ones that pushed the beauty limit in farcry and in crysis. I suspect farcry 2 will not push hardware quite as much, but I hope I am wrong. I actually like having games that go beyond what current hardware can do. People complain about crysis, but Farcry and Oblivion did the same to some degree. I say bring it on Ubi; make our jaws drop.

Mehehehe... possibility? More like a reality... As much as I liked Far Cry, I am already prepared for the worst, so I won't be disappointed when it comes out.

dude have u not seen the videos yet? check youtube for some gameplay footage from the developer. Looks sweet I say, pitty we have to wait 8 more months for it.

It's not going to be a system killer if it's coming from ubisoft subdivision who made 007 series.

far cry use different engine called "dunia" engine which means world.
don't know whether this engine is better than crytek or not

So it'll run badly on PC because of console optimization? Bad graphics + bad requirements, got it.

I've bought a few games in the past from Ubisoft. Great visuals, but buggy, slow, unrealistic. I mean, in Silent Hunter 3, it could take 4 torpedoes to sink a PT boat, and up to 7 to sink a small freighter. I've read enough accounts from real u-boat action to know that one torpedo was usually enough to sink a freighter, never mind a flimsy PT boat. And then there were the times when you got sunk the moment a mission started, before leaving port or anything. Like you say, its Ubisoft, so expect the worst. I've learned my lessons and won't repeat the mistake.

That's pretty harsh

Haha, I didn't mean it to be bad. It is just that Ubisoft will probably kick out a game that everyone can play rather than having Crysis-like system requirements. Halo2 just came to mind as a good example. <- actually, it is Friday and that is what I will be doing in a few short hours! Happy Friday!!!

Any game that takes place in the bush is a winner in my book!

MMM, Ive "been" everywhere else, sounds enteresting

Here are some trailers:

The second one is really cool!!!!

The teaser videos are really impressive, but I didn't know about Ubisoft's crummy rep. I'd love to see a game with a more efficient use of the Crysis engine from someone someday.

This is like having to select between eating feces or drinking urine.

I'll take "none of the above" for 1000 alex!

NO! The Dunia engine is made in-house by Ubisoft's Montreal team. It is not at all related to CryEngine or CryEngine2, and was made specifically for this game.

The most important factor concerning performance and visuals: Is this game being ported to consoles, or ported to the PC?

I think they should stop building lounge/living rooms. That way there won't be a spot for consoles to go.

EDIT: Typo

I think the trees growing back are just a Tech demo. I doubt they grow back in 10, and if they do, its probably to keep the scenario the same so the player doesn't change the zone too much...I dunno some bs like that.

I am excited to see how the interactivity works out with this game. The graphics may not be anything to write home about but if the game play is good then hazzah to them.

Are they? Haha, I was thinking the trees grow back after you shoot them up.
