So the villain is Saul Goodman from Breaking Bad, only a different haircut? Please tell me I'm not the only one seeing it.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

Yeah, we're still gonna be seeing cross-gen for a while. Very unfortunate.

Sigh.

 

[Taker34]

Cross gen isn't really bad if it's Far Cry... FC3 didn't look bad on PC at all. Just like Battlefield or Crysis titles.

 

[Dead]

There's the witcher 3

Assassin's Creed Unity is not cross gen

 

[hydruxo]

Lol that art is ridiculous.

Pumped for this though! FarCry is always tons of fun.

 

[Dennis]

I really hope the environments won't be too repetitive.

That seems harder to ensure with a Himalayan-type place.

 

[Team Klimt]

Wat

I certainly hope that's the case.

It's a waste of time to create PS360 versions, though. FC3 was one of the worst performing console games we've seen in the last decade. Just an awful frame-rate.

Such bullshit. I played through on 360 and it looked and ran amazingly well. Gaf gonna Gaf...

Going in on PS4 for round 4

 

[Parakeetman]

hoping for a crossbow

No real satisfaction from killing someone with a crossbow though.

I really hope the environments won't be too repetitive.

You mean radio towers right?... dear god i hated that shit.

 

[jond76]

I loved Far Cry 3, will grab this day 1!

Same here.

Watching animals randomly attack bad guys during a post raid was always a rush.

Hoping for a yeti appearance.

 

[Blastoise]

I hope they call the bad guy Dieter.

 

[LiK]

No real satisfaction from killing someone with a crossbow though.

I'm satisfied

 

[Krusenstern]

Bwahahaha! I absolutely love the art!

 

[Rad-]

Villain looks fabulous. I guess the guy holding the nade is his sex slave.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Looks like they go for another psycho type of character like Vaas.

 

[TalonJH]

...We're talking about November 2014? Really? Well, looks legit to me.

 

[BeforeU]

Looks interesting. Will there be skiing?

 

[Scum]

Antagonist will be an eccentric millionaire with a quirky campy personality laden with unprovoked violent cray cray streaks hunting for a mythological lost treasure based on ancient cartography and engraved runestones handed down through the family / came to him in a drug induced fever that nobody believes is real but in the end is VERY real and VERY cursed and then you play you fight Uncharted zombie nazis and wonder what the fuck happened.

Eat, pls. Spoilers. :<

 

[Dennis]

Bwahahaha! I absolutely love the art!

But look at how he is tormenting poor Johnny Depp.

 

[Chinpoko_Master]

I still find it odd that people get confused at why they'd (or any dev would) do cross-gen. There's so much money to be had and so many more consoles out there from last gen, it'd almost be dumb not to do cross gen for big titles.

I think everyone understands why they're doing cross gen. It's just annoying to see games held back by platforms that are almost a decade old.

 

[lefantome]

Cross gen isn't really bad if it's Far Cry... FC3 didn't look bad on PC at all. Just like Battlefield or Crysis titles.

Not even close. It was downgraded and ran like crap.

 

[kevcampbell]

Will wait for price drop, would have bought day one if was next gen only

 

[Shads]

Looking forward to this, enjoyed the heck out of FarCry 3. Will this new villain top Vaas?

 

[antitrop]

Villain looks fabulous. I guess the guy holding the nade is his sex slave.

When I see someone putting their hand on someone else's head like that, all I can think of is the gimp scene from Pulp Fiction.

 

[Triggerhappytel]

I loved FC3, but this is too soon. This is blatantly going to be the same game in a different location, isn't it?

 

[AlphaDump]

The one thing I have loved about every FarCry is the setting and atmosphere. They are always so sunny, bright and tropical. It's a major reason why I play them.

Not sure what to expect from the Himalayas

 

[DeviantBoi]

That guy looks like Sir Patrick Stewart with some hair.

 

[sjay1994]

I really hope the environments won't be too repetitive.

That seems harder to ensure with a Himalayan-type place.

Snow+ Villages+Jungles.

Seems more varied than the tropical island and african land.

Yeah I thought the same.

 

[GamingIsDead]

Not even close. It was downgraded and ran like crap.

Nah it ran great 60-70 fps and looked awesome. Just turn the shadows down to med or high.
The downgrade crap was massively over hyped.

 

[wrog]

Hell yeah! Far Cry 3 was awesome game so I'm very curious what they're going to do with this one.

 

[Splash Wave]

i see they're getting the weird racist overtones out there right from the start now

My thoughts exactly--what the fuck are they thinking?

 

[notoccupanther]

Coming 2015 - Far Cry 4 Remastered for Next-Gen

 

[SpookyFries]

Really hope this guy is as good as Vaas...

Spoiler

and hopefully they don't kill him off half way

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Wow, I did not expect this to be out this year at all. I would ahve put any money on this being a 2015 title.

 

[legacyzero]

GIMME GIMME GIMME

Fucking cross-gen, though

As long as the Map Editor makes a return, and the multiplayer lobby system doesn't cripple it, consider two copies bought

 

[Theecliff]

What a weird way to announce a game. Had mixed thoughts about Far Cry 3 but I'm definitely interested in the setting for this.

However, another cross-gen game? C'mon Ubi. Cut it out.

Such bullshit. I played through on 360 and it looked and ran amazingly well. Gaf gonna Gaf...

Going in on PS4 for round 4

Ran amazingly well, really? Played through the PS3 version here and I can't recall it even hitting 30fps. Had loads of framerate drops as well as audio problems, too. I wouldn't be quite as hyperbolic as the other poster, but yeah, Far Cry 3 sticks out in my mind as a particularly poor running game on the PS3.

 

[TalonJH]

Sorry but I have to agree at lest partially with the other guys. FC3 made me realize that I couldn't wait for a new generation of consoles. One of those games that looked and played like it was bumping up against technical limitation walls. I sadly never finished it. May look for it on PC. Going PS4 for FC4.

 

[Neuromancer]

i can't wait for the part where you get magical himalayan rune magic and then you have to qte fight a yeti and you mash some buttons on the yeti and if you fail then it keeps awkwardly transitioning into a death animation where the yeti kills you but if you win then the yeti gives you a yeti heart that lets you use Third World Magicks and you can do sick triple kills and also fill a bar

Antagonist will be an eccentric millionaire with a quirky campy personality laden with unprovoked violent cray cray streaks hunting for a mythological lost treasure based on ancient cartography and engraved runestones handed down through the family / came to him in a drug induced fever that nobody believes is real but in the end is VERY real and VERY cursed and then you play you fight Uncharted zombie nazis and wonder what the fuck happened.

I know you guys are trying to be funny but none of this sounds bad to me. =P

 

[Sn4ke_911]

I loved FC3, but this is too soon. This is blatantly going to be the same game in a different location, isn't it?

Yeah, i can totally see this being Far Cry 3.5

Let's see what they show at the Ubi press conference, my guess is a trailer followed by gameplay demonstration.

 

[Duxxy3]

UBIsoft still latching onto PS3/360.

Didn't they say they wanted to cut the cost of development? Here's an idea, stop developing for past gen... especially when the games will play like crap.

 

[LilWayneSuckz]

Yess! I need this now

Spoiler

I still haven't finished Far Cry 3

 

[RalliArtEvo]

very eager to see gameplay vids, most likely E3 is when we'll see more.

 

[Tacitus_]

Can't wait for Blood Dragon 2000.

 

[Parakeetman]

When I see someone putting their hand on someone else's head like that, all I can think of is the gimp scene from Pulp Fiction.

 

[Murder. She Wrote]

Is that the cover? On one hand I like the bad guys look, on the other hand it's a picture of a white guy exerting power and control over a dirty brown guy. There better be a damn good reason for that.

 

[hohoXD123]

 

[Bedameister]

Looking at those fiscal slides I see that Watch_Dogs is being released on Playstation 1 ;D

 

[GamingIsDead]

People will make controversy out of anything.

 

[Danneee]

Another jungle, another evil warlord.

 

[CaptainTiptop]

Cross-gen? Eeeehhhhh, I'll see how it turns out I guess.
