Far Cry 2

i'm sure it would be able to compete. with the same engine it should be a close second :D
 
Can't wait for either of them, now I just hope my current PC doesnt lag as much as my old one did when the first farcry came out :P
 
Hmmm . . .

I wonder if this is the "other" project they meant, which they'll port to consoles as well.

I think you're right, definitely looks like Africa.
 
I was expecting a video trailer, bastards!

Set in Africa? Hmmm, this is going to have the Crytek 2 engine, yeah? Does that mean I can drive through shacks with a VW taxi? :D

I'm evil - I know.
 
No ways! Already that time...
Man, I need to take long leave or something for all the games I wanna play!
 
Strange, don't see why they are making Far Cry 2 with Crysis in the works. Same developer, same engine, same theme..

Surely pretty much the same game?
 
no, as far as i know, Crytek isnt making the game, ubisoft is, and they wont be using cryengine2 either. Ubisoft has all the rights to farcry but EA now publishes for crytek. I hope im right in saying all that ;p
 
I always throught crysis was mainly about showing off what the engine can do, whereas far cry2 was just a game that used it. *shrug*
 
More info.

Quite a bit of information has been released about the upcoming PC game Far Cry 2. It will run on a custom made engine called Dunia. Which will able to run in DirectX9 or DirextX10. Dunia is also designed with Multicore CPUs as a focus point. Which will give it the ability to handle the whole game for over fifty square kilometer with no loading screens. Everything in the game will also be totally destructible to the the point of wind blowing a leaf off of a tree.

What has been released so far.

Engine: Dunia

Over 50 square kilometers

Full free roaming, with non-linear missions

Destructible Environs

There is a day and night system.

There is a dynamic weather system that adapts to how well you are currently doing. If you're shooting everything in site, and well too, the skies will be clear and sunny, but if you start getting owned, the sky will darken and become overcast.

Weapons can take damage and begin to malfunction and wear out. It's up to the player to take care of his weapons and keep them in top condition for the journey.

Running into a tree can cause it to break and fall down, just shake, or the player to crash to the floor, all depending on the size of the tree.

Advanced and adaptive AI wear color co-ordinates from GAP with +55 heads and infinate skin shading possibilities.

AI has morale settings, insult their clothing and their moral will suffer... Okay that and the bit above about GAP isn't true, but the moral of the NPCs is a function of what is happening around them, shoot their commander and their moral gets worse, shot the man next to them and it becomes even lower.
