[Deftech]

QUOTE

Here is a very interesting video comparing the water in Far Cry PC version (maximum detail) versus the Xbox 360 Far Cry Instincts Predator version. I have no idea where this video comes from, so take it with a grain of salt.
Update : I've just been told that this video was released by one of the FCI predator developers, originally only for internal usage at Ubisoft.

Download the video.

When is this due out? This is right up there with the other 5 I want badly. Its due in a month or 2 correct?

The pictures dont do it justice

Deftech is right. The water in this game makes your jaw drop waaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy down.

So fucking cool!

[Master X]

Your right man, the video is nuts. The water looks so realistic in the Xbox 360 version.

[notsodiseased]

Yup. Its going to be a rapetastic game. But i swear to god if it doesnt have adjustable difficulty I wont even bother. That almost killed the xbox version for me. I like a challenge and having the only campaign setting on what seems like "Ultra Easy" just doesnt cut it.


So as long as it has that It will definently be a must have.



:::Edit::: and WOW that water IS amazing. This could be a big thing for the 360.

They need to do some work on the SMG though, it does looks horrible.

[notsodiseased]

and you can bet the character models wont look all that hot either.



But it is still building up to be almost as good as its PC predecessor.

[Master X]

The hand and the knife looks very nice but I just think that they should add more detail to the weapons, Perfect Dark Zero's SMG looks way better then that one.

far cry pc is OLD as HELL, dont act like for one minute that this isnt possible on pc

yes it is good looking though

[notsodiseased]

Okay?



I dont think anyone here is disputing that its not possible on a PC, I mean thats kind of obvious. I think most people are stoked that a console is finally getting the level of detail that weve been wanting since the Amiga days.


Also wasnt it stated somewhere that FarCry 2 wasnt in development (PC of course) anymore or something similiar? If so tis a sad day filled with sad sauce. FarCry (despite its age) is easily my 2nd favorite PC game both single and multiplayer. Just rock solid in so many aspects.



Also Do what deftech says and watch the video. Watching the waves lap the boat is almost hypnotic.

that comparing the crytech 1 engine(pc) to the just annonced crytech 2 engine(360)

duh it going to look better

woot for DirectX 10 though

I'd like to know where those waves are coming from.  The trees aren't moving so there shouldn't be any wind.  The waves are coming from the direction of a small cove it would appear.  I don't get it.  Sure they look great, but it's not very realistic if there shouldn't be waves in the first place.

paranoia  

how did this become a "a pc can't do FarCry Predator like the 360 can" thread? lol

and I know we heard about the crytech 2 engine(or whatever its called), but I'd like to see it in writing that this 360 version of far cry uses it(I doubt it is). Last I heard that engine was being used on a undisclosed title.

  @ the complaining about the waves. Good lord ya just cant please some people.

[Stravos]

Don't get me wrong, I think those waves look beautiful.  Small details bug me, however.  I'm sure that was just a demo to show off how good the waves look.  I can't imagine them releasing a game with white-caps on a calm sunny day.
