Man, I hope its less military. More taking down sex rings, drugs and hate groups.

Yeah, let's just stick with cult/radical hate groups. Something different for a change. I'm not interested if it's another fucking militia/paramilitary group. We just got Wildlands for that.

Even with those groups they're likely to have their own militia. The pen might be mightier than the sword but it's easier to teach impressionable young men how to wield swords.
I didn't realize that 2017 was the year where open world games were invented

I guess he ment how the world works and is made more like that wich would be pretty cool real gameplay freedom and exploration would be pretty nice imo.

Shitposting deserves a shitposting treatment.
I never get the reason of people spewing the same song in every open world topics.
I get it that some people don't like open world games, but do they have to shout it out in an open world game announcement?
This would be so dope. Any rumors on the release date?

This is probably what the Easy Allies Jones slip up was about. So probably end of August, early September.

Damn, this definitely has my interest. I enjoyed Far Cry 3 and 4 quite a bit, but I do hope they change up the formula gameplay wise a bit.
I can't wait to be shocked. Last main(not counting Blood Dragon) FC game I played was 2.

I wonder who your allies will be in this one considering in Far Cry you tend to align yourself with some very morally ambiguous characters and with you being apparently a police officer in this one it could go a number of ways by the end of it.

Well yeah BOTW literally invented the open-world genre

Actually really digging the premise of this if it's about a doomsday prepper cult in Montana, assuming what I've heard is true. Would love to see a Blood Dragon like DLC where the cult is right about whatever they think will end the world, and you have to survive the end of days.

Yep. Anyone who trusts them that what they show is representative of the final game is just beyond reason.
Whatever they show will be downgraded.
I don't understand. What is this in reference to? I remember them talking about the game potentially coming out in September based on a rumor they'd heard; is there more to this?

If we are getting True Detective/Justified/Hell or High Water the video game, I will kiss Yves Guillemot. There will be tongue.

I'm expecting this
But I feel Ubi will give me this:

Same here. Hope they have some fresh ideas. But then again, why should they? Wildlands is the top seller of 2017.

So this is going to center around some sort of cult maybe? All the people in those teasers are wearing white. Anyway, those teasers have me interested. I skipped Primal and never got around to finishing 4.
Isn't that every far cry game?

Ubi has like one or two dozens of open world games that sold like the double amount of copies that the best selling Zelda games, and some of the are Far Cry games. All of them released before BOTW. This is why most of the new features BOTW added compared to other Zeldas are copied from Ubi games and other open world games like Skyrim (the others were basically from Monster Hunter).
And they aren't the only ones, there are multiple other examples way more relevant in the market (sales) than Zelda BOTW, like Horizon, Skyrim or GTA just to name a few.
Many Nintendo fans may have discovered open world games in 2017, but they were already super popular since GTA III or the first Assassin's Creed.

Hopefully they got much better writers at least.
And more interesting quests.
And better game play ;_;
It's annoying that the setting is so interesting because Primal and 4 burned me hard and I don't expect much improvement here.

Lol those trailers were real life??

Like I expect Ubi to nail the world and setting, but I don't have high hopes for the story, especially not going to expect anything akin to True Detective.

Will be more like Pet Detective knowing this lot. The way they write their characters and story its as though primary school students were consultants on most of them.

Loved every single farcry game i have played (skipped primal though ), but i am unsure about this new cult / horror direction.
I guess its now as good time as any to shake up the formula, god knows i was sick of climbing towers by the end of 4 , but at its core thats what farcry is , towers, outposts and a variety of vehicles/guns.
Not sure how this fits into the new narrative, maybe taking out clan outposts e.t.c, still i dont see the player having alot of fun vehicles/animals at your disposal.

LOL sums it up perfectly. VERY interesting teasers, hope the full reveal is interesting. Only Far Cry game I've played is FC4 so the series isn' super stale for me yet.

Im still struggling to imagine how traditional far cry gameplay would fit into this setting

I'm struggling to think how, considering this is continental United States of America, they avoid the fact that (presumably) a whole region in Montana has been over taken by gangs of murderous cultists (or whatever). Like, wouldn't that be quickly discovered and the military would be called in? Or something? lol

The cultists have diep ties with the local government and law enforcement.
There - done.

Really hope they expand on the co-op that 4 had. Let it be the entire game, including missions. I loved the helicopter and messing around with a friend in the previous game.

Maybe it's set pre-mobile phones/internet and telephone lines have been cut or something. Rural town no one cares about, no one is allowed to leave, no information gets out.

We would be lucky to get a Banshee tier narrative from action devs.
