Despite everything, I kind of enjoyed previous games and didn’t mind getting lost in their worlds, but I had enough by the time 6 came out and dropped it 4-5 hours into the game. Will check this one out if it does anything new which it will probably won’t.

 

[Certinty]

Loved 3 and 5.

2 and 4 were decent.

6 was crap.

Can’t say i’m hyped.

Snowdrop engine and They Will have my atention....

6 was crap.

Can’t say i’m hyped.

I enjoyed 4 the most. 3 never clicked with me for some reason, barely played it. Loved Blood Dragon tho. Primal and New Dawn were alright too. 5 was a letdown and I just cant get into 6...

 

[TheKratos]

Graphic wise always superb. If it has co-op, day one.

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

But what they’re describing sounds vastly different. I’d rather wait and see what they show before deciding.

Ubisoft has the capacity for creativity as long as they go all-in with their risks. Half-in is where they encounter heavy criticism, like Watch Dogs Legion.

I'm sure we're all for heavy change, as long as it doesn't go back to something awful like FC2's roughness.

does anyone actually get hyped for farcry games anymore?

The concept for this one sounds very fresh and should make for a nice departure from the usual Far Cry formula that was established by the third game.

So, at least on paper, Ubisoft can count me in.

 

[SteadyEvo]

Yawn

Perfect game before bed

 

[Camreezie]

Surely there is no way they're getting Cillian Murphy for far cry

 

[poppabk]

I believe the 72 hours thingie was tied to rumors about Far Cry 7. I remember reading something that you are given 72 hours to finish your main goal

They may be also teasing that Cillian Murphy would be playing next villain. No idea what crab thing is referring towards

Think the giant enemy crab indicates that this is going to have a serious historical setting

Far Cry 7 should be set in Vietnam were you essentially play John Rambo.

I... I can't find anything wrong with this idea...

 

[El Muerto]

I keep playing the games in this series hoping it would be better than FC2 and they just keep getting worse and worse.

Make it "Far cry 7 : The woke has fallen" then I'll buy it.

Have to take out a cult led by Juanita Faleesian.

They've touched on it with the FC5 dlc. And a couple of missions in FC6.

 

[SJRB]

 

[MikeM]

No Steam achievements, no buy Ubisoft.

 

[Robochobo]

More money spent on big name movie actors, less money spent on the actual game. Yaaaaaaaay...

 

[Don Carlo]

Inbf4 Far Cry 7 stars God knows who this time as the main villain. Imagine it's Adrien Brody ffs

 

[Denton]

Meh

You can only repeat the formula so many times before it becomes too stale.

 

[dorkimoe]

I really hope the gameplay loop is changed. The missions were repetitive, id prefer a unique loot system

 

[Deerock71]

 

[Buggy Loop]

does anyone actually get hyped for farcry Ubisoft games anymore?

Small tweak but still the same answer: NO

 

[VanCityGamer]

Who actually plays these??

This is an incredibly dumb question.

 

[Perrott]

Think the giant enemy crab indicates that this is going to have a serious historical setting

That'd be sick, especially if in our character's skill tree we can unlock the ability to hit enemies in their weak points for massive damage.

Meh

You can only repeat the formula so many times before it becomes too stale.

They're literally shaking up the entire Far Cry formula with this game:

It’s understood that the next entry to the series will be a non-linear story centered around rescuing the player’s kidnapped family. It's said that the game’s plot revolves around a wealthy family that has been kidnapped by a conspiracy group currently called the ‘Sons of Truth’. The premise of the campaign is for the player to rescue their entire family within a specific time frame. Currently, the current in-game timer stands at 72 hours, or 24 hours in real-time.
Far Cry 7’s non-linear story means that family members do not need to be rescued in order, and some family members can be killed, which has an impact on the story. To find your family members, it was said that Far Cry 7 introduces a new interrogation mechanic to the game, which doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll get the information you need from the enemy. Sometimes the enemy will give up the information, sometimes they’ll lie, stay quiet, or even sometimes escape, it was said.

Those changes should make for a much more open-ended and systems-driven experience, reminiscent of the creative and bold game design that characterized Far Cry 2 in comparison to its several successors.

 

[Hudo]

They've touched on it with the FC5 dlc. And a couple of missions in FC6.

Should be a whole game. I haven't played FC5 or FC6, so I cannot say how these missions were done there.

 

[Paperboy]

Am I the only one who enjoyed the sixth installment? You should know what to expect when you start a new Far Cry game by now.

 

[sigmaZ]

The series is still a far cry from what it used to be, but I still find the gameplay good enough to warrant playthroughs. It's a nice throwaway game with tight controls for the most part.

 

[lh032]

wow cant wait

 

[Bulletbrain]

Inbf4 Far Cry 7 stars God knows who this time as the main villain. Imagine it's Adrien Brody ffs

Rumors are it's going to be none other than Academy Award Winning Cillian Murphy!!

 

[JayK47]

After what they did to 6, I am out. Pretty much seems like Ubisoft is a solid developer to avoid these days.

 

[simpatico]

If it's another reskin I've got no interest. Complete reboot or bust. Considering how fast it seems to be coming, probably another FC3 clone.

 

[Trunim]

Make far cry interesting again....which they won't. What a bore to be a developer at ubisoft.

 

[RickSanchez]

Releasing 2025 ? So i'll buy it in 2028, at a 75% discount and all DLCs included and all bugs patched.

 

[Pimpbaa]

Loved 5, but the insane wokeness of 6 made me never want to touch the series again.

 

[TheThreadsThatBindUs]

I'll play it...

But I really want a new Division game. One that does next-gen visuals and goes back to what made The Division 1 great.

 

[Lions Gate]

does anyone actually get hyped for farcry games anymore?

 

[baphomet]

They were saying even before 6 launched that 7 was going to be the big step forward with Far Cry.

Hopefully it's true. They can't do the exact same thing again. 6 sucked and wasn't even as good as 5.

 

[Esppiral]

I lost interest in this series after Farcry 2, fra cry 4 onwards IS gross

 

[RJMacready73]

The only way I'd buy another Farcry is if they remade the first one again, I absolutely loved it back in the day, real Island of Dr Moreau feel about it

 

[TVexperto]

Fucking hate this vague leaker shit. bit of an inflated ego on display here. Either leak stuff or don't, but stop trying to turn it into a pseudo marketing campaign.

 

[Don Carlo]

Hype.

Rumors are it's going to be none other than Academy Award Winning Cillian Murphy!!

 

[Kurotri]

"Mind you, I NEVER said Cillian Murphy was going to be in the game. The image means something else."​

Embarrassing how multiple news sites like Eurogamer just ran with it like the rest of the internet.

 

[lmimmfn]

As this is a Ubisoft thread I read that first as "Yawn of The First Day"
Those Ubisoft expectations eh?

 

[T.v]

A giant enemy crab might be just what the series needs.

 

[Kiya's Guard]

I recently finished 4, and on my way to play 5. I have to keep finishing ubi's catalogue damn
