Guys, it's clearly "Skyrim without guns".

 

[Shakka]

Love the setting. I don't think there has been a high profile game with this setting since BC for XBOX 1, and that one obvisouly never came out.

 

[Shauni]

Where is this said that it'll be a full $60 release? I read the OP, but I don't see where that's clarified at.

 

[The Janitor]

A Far Cry game without vehicles? Walking simulator confirmed.

Amazon and Ubishop list it as as full priced game.

mammoths and sabertooths are good enough.

[AtomicShroom]

Well this is maybe because we have little or no info on the aspects you raise ?

Well they should make a trailer that makes me excited, then. Because all this trailer does for me is scream "snooooooore".

 

[nortonff]

Guys, it's clearly "Skyrim without guns".

Nop, it's clearly Turok without dinosaurs.

 

[AndrewDean84xX]

Very interested.

 

[Omega]

Just because this game doesn't have guns doesn't mean it doesn't come from a cynical place. Seems like an obvious attempt to cash in on the popularity of survival games to me.

well at least we get a finished survival game

 

[Sojgat]

The reactions to this game not having guns is why AAA games don't change:


"I want games to change, too many guns in AAA."

"What no guns!? What am I supposed to do all game with nothing to shoot!? BORING!"

I didn't ask for this.

I wanted dinosaurs. I wanted Blood Dragon 2.

This seems to be just a cheap coat of paint on last years game. I doubt there will be any meaningful survival mechanics.

Completely different then?

Yeah, so different. Looks like they just bolted on a Dying Light style melee system. Get ready to capture those tribal camps and climb some prehistoric towers.

 

[xuiton]

I knew asscreed was on a conveyor belt but now far cry?

 

[farisr]

Man, it's sad that I saw a 59.99 pricetag and went "not a bad price" like it was some kind of a discount. Damn Canadian dollar.

 

[0racle]

So will we get Troy Baker grunting?

LOL

 

[EventHorizon]

I'm not as hyped as I am for Horizon: Zero Dawn, but this has potential. Now show me some gameplay to rope me in.

2016 is starting to look like an epic year for gaming.

 

[vypek]

I knew asscreed was on a conveyor belt but now far cry?

I wonder if this is what they are going for or if they want to test the water of spin off titles being interspersed with the numbered entries. Maybe they'd get those into the regular rotation of the games while spacing them out the same way after this...who knows. Could be that we'll see a new Far Cry every 18 months or something.

 

[Cat Party]

This is quite interesting. Hunting predators is not an element of recent Far Cry games that I like, but I want to see more.

I find it baffling you are complaining about same old far cry shit while crying for same old far cry shit

And you are posting it without realizing how silly you sound.

 

[Harlequin]

Doesn't look half-bad. Certainly more interesting than any of the other Far Cry games IMO. Then again, it is Ubisoft. That's enough reason to be wary. Also, it's ridiculous that they're apparently covering up female breasts in a game set in the stone age. Prude much?

 

[Kathanan]

So how do you get from A to B? Run for hours.. or can you craft a flintstone looking car? =)

 

[Bloodrage]

Sign me up. Looks hot.

 

[robotrock]

Whoa that's really soon. Put dinosaurs in it and I may consider

 

[Gnome Scat]

I knew they were going to be going this direction after Shangri La from Far Cry 4. Quick development cycle, though, hopefully it will turn out ok.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

I can see you having a tiger as a companion, like in certain FC4 missions.

You could give commands to a tiger companion in Far Cry 4 Shangri-La missions.
Imagine if they use that mechanic in Primal and let us have Saber Tooth Tigers as companions!

Ohhhh, sweet. I haven't played FC4 so I didn't know, but that's nice.

 

[N° 2048]

Day 1 buy, amazing!

 

[inm8num2]

This is a great concept for FC-style gameplay.

 

[Gravemind IV]

Man, they probably went with the Ice Age route because Sabertooths/Mammoths is pretty much the same as Tigers/Elephants. Kind of a shame though, because dinosaurs would have been a lot more novel.

 

[TheKeyPit]

I'm interested, but $59.99? I still have to get FarCry4 and I'll probably buy that one for cheap before considering to get Primal.

Dinosaurs novel? lol

 

[Kacho]

Sounds interesting but no guns worry's me a bit. I'm hoping the other elements can make up for the lack of guns.

 

[nortonff]

Maybe you can mount the tiger? Would be cool.

 

[Screaming Meat]

Interesting.

MP/Co-op announced? I'd be interested in seeing how they handle the former. With the latter, taking down Mammoths as part of a 3 man squad would be pretty fucking cool.

Shame it's Ubisoft.

 

[Angel_DvA]

Looks too good to be true, Downgrade incoming.

gameplay reveal at PSXexperience or else ?

 

[True Fire]

I'm not convinced. It's cool that AAA games are moving away from guns and explosions though. I can't wait for Call of Duty: Ancient Warfare

 

[RoboPlato]

Upgrade unlocked: Feces tipped spear

 

[ROUGE_BLOCK]

A Far Cry game without vehicles? Walking simulator confirmed.

You can literally say this about any open world game

 

[Sou Da]

well at least we get a finished survival game

What's survival about it?

Horses?

 

[Tcab96]

Hope there's magic. I loved the magic during the Far Cry 4 Shangri-La missions.

That sabertooth also looks like an ally to the player character. Hopefully it's similar to the white Tiger in the Shangri-la missions as well. Loved that tiger.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

PGW, at the end of october on Sony's conference is my bet.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Really surprised at that 59.99 price. This seems like a hard sell.

 

[SentryDown]

Watch the development video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEaS0U_CCLU

 

[Wind's Howling]

I'm interested, but $59.99? I still have to get FarCry4 and I'll probably buy that one for cheap before considering to get Primal.

That is exactly what I did with Far Cry 4. Bought the Gold Edition for 35 euros packed with every single DLC.

Never do these games warrant the full price in my opinion. This one might be different, but I am definitely going to take this one with a pinch of salt because it is always going to be Ubisoft.

 

[Gravemind IV]

Dinosaurs novel? lol

More novel when it pertains to a bunch of animal classes and animation rather than the foreseeable rehash of tigers and elephants.

 

[Randam]

setting is really off putting for me.

Horses?

afaik we didn't ride horses back then.

 

[Omega]

What's survival about it?

nothing.

the guy i quoted said they're trying to capitalize on them. i meant it more that if they actually were, then at least we get one that isn't in eternal alpha

 

[Screaming Meat]

Creative license?

 

[Nokagi]

Could be interesting. It's something a little different at least.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Creative license?

Fuck horses, taming mammoths and saberthoots to ride them.

 

[Krappadizzle]

That trailer was lame as shit. I like the idea though. I had to Watch with the sound muted. Is coop confirmed?
