Er, yes. It looks spectacular at times and there are few games that come with a similar sense of scale. Actually, Arma is the only other one I can think of right now.
I hope this is good, but it sounds to me like the dev's went to Montana, talked to some local's, got put off by their customs and made a video game exaggerating and vilifying them.
What makes a Far Cry game anyway? The developer in the video (roughly) says "Its something in a story you hear at a bar, that can be realistic." That is so vague, are you telling me your team goes out for drinks and BS's about work? Shocking!
Didn't this franchise used to have a cool map editor, super-powers, hang-gliders and jet skis? Wasn't Far Cry the name of the Project for human mutation? Why do any of these newer games have the Far Cry title if they aren't related?
A couple black people in the group of cultists apparently from the trailer, so I guess they aren't going with a white supremacist angle, more so Christian cult.

So the gameplay is not going through a major shakeup? That's a bummer but expected. Unfortunately the game doesn't play even a little bit to my desire for virtual tourism like the previous games did and the setting looks as balls to the wall boring as I feared. Actually gave me GTA5 vibes. God I wish they'd gone with one of their more "out there" settings. Also the "create your character" thing isn't a plus for me. I'm not a huge fan of cipher protagonists. I like a bit of personality and drive in my character. Gotta say 'pass' for now.
And any fantasies about gunning down white supremacists have been put to bed. No way racism was going to be explored in FarCry.
Ubisoft Montreal is leading development, with support from Ubisoft Toronto, Ubisoft Kiev, Ubisoft Shanghai, and Ubisoft Reflections.
If Montreal is leading development here, who's working on AssCreed then?

Ubisoft Montreal. They've got over 1000 people working on multiple titles there.If Montreal is leading development here, who's working on AssCreed then?
They have their own holy book and symbols. Christianity won't be mentioned. Ubi isn't going to mess with that.
Yep. This is going to be a goofy, sanitized, Canadian safari that doesn't do anything remotely contentious, and treats live, dangerous politics and culture as a prop for cartoon violence. It's amazing how they make it toothless and tasteless at the same time.And any fantasies about gunning down white supremacists have been put to bed. No way racism was going to be explored in FarCry.
People expecting this in 2017 make me laugh. As if it would come out in the fall when that is Assassins Creed territory. Come on people, seriously?

here is what makes a Far Cry game: you shoot bad guys in a rural setting. it is always ok to shoot these bad guys because you are an outsider and they are all crazy militants of some sort. swap out patronizing ethic tatoos for patronizing American evanglism and you have this. you will still be spending most of the time climbing radio towers and infiltrating shanty towns. only now it means something maaaan (it means bloggers have an angle for additional coverage (cos "political")
Sucks it will not be out till next year. Sucks even more that I won't buy it till a sale a few months after release. $79.99 plus tax comes to $91.99 here in Canada. Maybe a full year from now it will be in the $40-$50 range. Maybe amazon.ca will have some good E3 pre-order deals...

I cranked the graphics as tall as I could during the Open Beta on PC just before launch, unless they magically introduced more graphic settings than they decided to include with the beta in the release, it's doesn't look much better than that there.I think you need to watch
