Far Cry 2 TOMORROW. :)

I am getting Far Cry 2 tomorrow morning. It came out today but my Gamestop wont have it til tomorrow morning as it has to ship out to the west coast.

I'll post some info and some screenshots ASAP tomorrow morning after I go get it and get going.

I've been exited to get this game. I can't wait!

Re: Far Cry 2 TOMORROW. :)

I have it already and already completed it.....no not really, I do have it although, I am a bit surprised that you would not have gotten it first considering you live in the U.S. I thought we had to wait until last for everything over here.

It's a great game from what I've played so far and there is a new nvidia Beta driver made for the game 180.42, from what I can gather the main reason for the release was to give full SLI support for the game.

Re: Far Cry 2 TOMORROW. :)

Yea It's great so far. It was released yesterday. and most of country had it. but I had to wait til today to get it cuz shipping to east cost. When was it released for you?

I have some Great screenshots.
I will say that FC2 BLOWS crysis away in terms of Graphics. this game is simply stunning. The best looking game I've ever played.

It's pretty fun. things aren't destroyable like Crysis. but thats ok. the guns are great. My only complains so far is the game is sorta slow. and you don't have a Radar showing you where people are like most games do. the map is "OK"
My only other complaint is the walking.. he walks a little slow. and running holding shift only lasts about 6 seconds and then his vision goes weird and you stop running. it's like he gets tired.. (You'd think my character, a USMC King, and special Ops Guy could run farther than that.. Right??)

Here's some screen shots. Most pictures were taken at night.
I then went to sleep (In Game) for 4 hours until daytime.. there's a full time clock cycle. it's sweet!

Pics.
Near the beginning. It's getting dark.


Water looks great.


Dead guy looks soo real.


Last one.

I was hoping that things were destroyable like in crysis. I used to blow things up just for a laugh in crysis. Looks like I will wait a bit before buying it.

Ya.. the surrounding are not as destroyable.. you can't shoot tree's down or anything. the bullet marks disappear. but you can't have everything. I mean thegraphics are simply amazing. It looks great. the fire looks great.. Acts real. Moves with the wind and destroys other things around it.

I'm very much enjoying it so far. It was slow at first. but now I own some safe houses. and I have a few Arms dealers. I'e got a strong Sniper rifle thats really making the game interesting. It's good.

I recommend getting it!
