Ubidays, la care din motive oculte nu am fost invitaÅ£i (sigur din cauza iminentului meci România – FranÅ£a de la CE), a dat ocazia Ubisoft să-ÅŸi scoată la iveală artileria grea, Far Cry 2. Avem la dispoziÅ£ie două filme. Primul este un trailer oficial în care auzim vocea blajină a unui jurnalist, a la mister Eko din Lost, care ne mărturiseÅŸte dragostea lui pentru Africa, cu luminile ÅŸi umbrele ei cu tot, după care toată scena idilică se transformă într-un teatru de luptă.
Cel de-al doilea conÅ£ine 13 minute de gameplay, filmate perfid în timpul prezentării de niÅŸte… heh, da, cehi pe nume N-Joy. Versiunea prezentată pare să fie cea pentru consolă, Xbox360, mai exact. Grafica este reuÅŸită, personajul nostru pare să fi fost premiant la cursurile de prim ajutor pentru felceri, locaÅ£iile sunt imense, vehiculele se comportă bine, dar AI-ul este idiot de-a dreptul ÅŸi gradul de dificultate pe care a jucat prezentatorul pare să fie la nivelul kindergarten: wtf, defilezi metri întregi prin faÅ£a tipilor, ei te îndoapă cu cartuÅŸe ÅŸi tu îÅ£i permiÅ£i luxul să-i iei la cuÅ£it! AÅŸa ceva… Din câte ÅŸtim, Ubisoft a anunÅ£at că versiunea pentru PC este cea principală, aÅŸa că aÅŸteptăm un altfel de Far Cry 2.
Far Cry® 2, the next-generation first-person shooter from Ubisoft, will take you deep into the most beautiful but also most hostile environments in the world: Africa! More than just a visual and technological achievement, Far Cry® 2, the true sequel to the award-winning PC game, will provide you with an unprecedented gaming experience.
Caught between two rival factions in war-torn Africa, you are sent to take out "The Jackal", a mysterious character who has rekindled the conflict between the warlords, jeopardizing thousands of lives. In order to fulfil your mission you will have to play the factions against each other, identify and exploit their weaknesses, and neutralise their superior numbers and firepower with surprise, subversion, cunning and, of course, brute force.
OPEN WORLD
The extensive artistic research combined with the next-gen engine will allow you to explore over 50Km2 of seamlessly rendered African landscape. No game has ever provided such freedom of movement!
DUNIA ENGINE
The Dunia Engine was built specifically for Far Cry® 2 by the award-winning Ubisoft Montréal development team. It delivers the most realistic destructible environments, amazing special effects such as dynamic fire propagation and storm effects, real-time night-and-day cycle, dynamic music system, non-scripted enemy A.I. and so much more…
REAL-TIME IMMERSION
Real-time story telling, systemic auto-healing, minimal in-game interface are just few of the features that will make you feel the tension of being alone against barbarous warlords that threaten thousands of innocent lives.
WEAPONS OF CHOICE
Choose from a wide range of weapons to make your way to your primary target. Meet the fight head-on with your machine-gun, go berserk with your machete or make stealth kills as a Sniper. If you feel that the atmosphere is not warm enough, light up your flamethrower and let your enemies and everything around them feel the heat.
VEHICLES
Fly, Drive, Run, slide and hover over the huge open world with your glider, trucks, cars, boats and much more.
