    Already the pessimist's are spamming away.

    To me the game looks terrific. I loved the Cry engine 2 in Crysis,
    I can't wait to play in an african style environment rather than
    the tropical style in farcry and Crysis that I am used to.
    Grass fires, animals, and some of that scenery look spectacular.

    Plus I like the open type environments, and not so scripted,
    always get the feeling when I play CoD games that im playing
    in small areas with invisible walls, love the vastness of Farcry
    and Crysis.

    All that grass though, might need another GTX lol.

    Yeah looks good, although it doesn't look as good as i initially expected.. dunno why. Perhaps it all looks a little bit too cartoony.

    Maybe you should stop assuming that anyone who complains about ports is a pirate? Most of us here have a job, so I don't know where you're getting ideas. The recent announcement of Spore calling home every 10 days isn't going to help things either.

    This particular issue seems to be rendered at 30fps. I do hope PC version won't be capped at 30fps like most consoles ports are

    You do know that FC2 isn't using the Cryengine 2, right?

    Anway, really looking forward to this game and love the Beyond Good & Evil music in the beginning of this "trailer".

    What games are capped at 30fps?
    Friends shouldn't let friends use Windows 7 until Microsoft fixes Windows Explorer (link)

    the video I first seen about it linked from dev forums a while ago was far more impressive though. a long preview explaining all the capabilities of the engines of the game with quite a lot of explanations. I never found it back, only a few of the sort but shorter and in low quality

    this one is pretty bad and don't show you many things about the game which is actually looking pretty good

    Go replay the game and see what im talkin about.
    if theres a wall or a floor for it to splatter on, yes, if not, then no. you shoot someone in the middle of a grass or dirt field, and nothing.
    What I am trying to say is its just as cheap as Crysis's blood splat.

    I'm tired of the generic blood splat. If someone were to make a game where they would actually bleed and leave a blood trail, that'd be realistic.

    That would take actual dynamic fluid physics. Since most people do not understand how important PhysX cards where, it will take some time before you see it in games.

    I also find it funny that people miss the DUNIA Engine shoots that are found on most FC2 trailers. Can you make it more obvious to people what engine is being used without actually spelling it out for them?

    Oh and from the mouths of the developers "...engine was built from ground up...". Ubisoft own the FarCry licence, they have nothing to do with CryEngine.
