[ozz ex machina]

As I expected the teases provided false hope.

Tonally this trailer is what I feared/expected.

Not interested in this at all.

One day I will get my true detective season 1 game.

 

[Alebrije]

Guess the game is not about racism but religion control. And this happenes everywhere when different churchs/religions collide.

 

[ShutterMunster]

Someone may have asked this already but is the actor doing the VO the same guy who played Rafe in UC4?

 

[wesleyshark]

Kind of reminds me of Justified crossed with Far Cry.

I'm so in for this game

 

[Riposte]

My overactive imagination made me think we would be playing a former/escaped member of the cult and the type of story that would entail. That doesn't seem to be the case and I find character creator to be a little disappointing.

 

[Warnen]

Like how they didn't say holiday 2017 and delay it, best games seem to come out now 1st 3 months of the new year.

Yeah, the first four teasers basically had nothing to do with the reveal except for the environments. Sad.

 

[CrayToes]

Looks like Far Cry alright. In for co op, regardless.

 

[Creaking]

Is that a black guy in this dude's congregation? I mean, I know video games aren't usually very realistic, but come on.

 

[RoboPlato]

Those character trailers are excellent. Best character writing and voice acting I've seen out of Ubi in a very long time. Definitely on board with this.

 

[Alucrid]

feels like the game won't have any teeth

Clayton bigsby? Preorder confirmed!!!!

 

[qtamir1]

i actually really liked the short character trailers more than the actual reveal trailer...
looks interesting but i need to see a gameplay to fully invest myself in the game...

It's a doomsday cult in Montana. I could see it.

There's always one black guy in a group like this who just goes along with what's happening even if he gets treated bad.

 

[Alienous]

It looks nice, but it also looks like a ton of flat terrain.

 

[RedFury]

Have you seen Ben Carson? Looks realistic to me.

 

[rhandino]

Trailers look fantastic and I am pleasently surprised that they added a character creator and co-op.

2018 is going to slay!~

How so?

 

[TVexperto]

I see Ubi is back to doing Bullshots:

 

[DrForester]

Wonder how long it takes for someone to mod in Trump and replace their logos with "Make America Great Again" signs.


10 seconds after launch? 20?

It looks nice, but it also looks like a ton of flat terrain.

I noticed that too. I imagine some of the mountainous areas will be exploitable.

 

[Toa TAK]

Those character trailers are excellent. Best character writing and voice acting I've seen out of Ubi in a very long time. Definitely on board with this.

Yeah, those are pretty well done. Hopefully the writing is up to snuff.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

I'm in day one. My wife will be too since you have character customization.

I wonder how many times the n word will be used

You don't watch horror movies do you?

He may be the one in the trailer dragging that prisoner. There is another one in the full cover art too:

[bud23]

I like the setting, but so far it feels like Far Cry 3 reskinned again.

I'll need to see some gameplay before I'll be able to have any interest.

I'm not sure what you're talking about, it´s a Far Cry game?

I´m not able to see any similarity between FC3 and this game, other than the typical and asinine Ubisoft´s representation of a lunatic, super villain, antagonist

 

[mcrommert]

Looks like ubisoft has forgotten who is their audience for this game

Mistake

 

[molnizzle]

I wonder how many times the n word will be used

0

A lot of people jumped to conclusions based on the white enemies from the key art.

This game isn't gonna be anything controversial. Ubisoft games are as mass market as it gets.

 

[jacobeid]

Looks like ubisoft has forgotten who is their audience for this game

Mistake

Please elaborate.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

Looks like ubisoft has forgotten who is their audience for this game

Mistake

People who like crazy open world RPG-lite shooters?

 

[AfterTheFall]

This is looking rather good. Wasn't too fussed about another Far Cry but after watching the trailer my hype levels have increased.

 

[RedFury]

Looks like ubisoft has forgotten who is their audience for this game

Mistake

Pretty much this too. If they were going to go this route I'd rather they had gone all the way rather then beat about the bush.

 

[Raptor]

This game needs to add a little something extra like some good ol gore and blood spraying bodies, if it aint is just another FC game in a diff setting and thats sounds boring.

 

[spannicus]

Far Cry 5 |OT| its a Clayton Bigsby world.

 

[CambriaRising]

I see Ubi is back to doing Bullshots:

Back to? When did they stop?

It's a religious cult

 

[pr0cs]

Looks great, I dig the more familiar setting. Hopefully it's not just fc4 reskinned and they put more effort in AI, pathfinding, etc

 

[iceblade997]

This looks pretty interesting. I'll wait to see what the reviews are like before jumping in but there is quite a bit of promise here thus far. I just hope it doesn't feel as similar to 3 and 4 as those two did to each other.

As has been said before though a February release seems a bit tough coming up (as things stand right now) near RDR2 but hopefully it can carve a niche for itself.

 

[Comrade Crunch]

Is that a black guy in this dude's congregation? I mean, I know video games aren't usually very realistic, but come on.

I mean, it's a cult, they're generally accepting of anyone who wants to join, and in this games case, even those who don't.

 

[RedlineRonin]

Just saw a tweet from Totillo that you can pick your skin color and man or woman player char. That's pretty cool.

But I'm really just gonna be there for the pet dog.

 

[Jack The Nipper]

So these guys still doing trailers that don't resemble the game well.

Playing the last far cry felt very difficult for me. Gameplay, ai and vehicles just aren't fun for me. Doubt this one is any different

 

[Asriel]

Day One for me.

 

[doemaaan]

I like the "backyard" vibe. Series needed it.

 

[SatoAilDarko]

It's a religious cult

Yeah. The description in the OP specifically calls them a Doomsday cult.

 

[SomTervo]

This... this has potential

But that's also a painfully long wait.

6 months release windows are king these days


PS there's a flash of two protagonists riding a quad bike together. Is full-game co-op confirmed?

Love that they're going RPG with the character. It's literally what I've asked of Ubisoft games for about six years. Their game systems and designs are designed perfectly for RPGs rather than character-based action/adventure games.

 

[captainpat]

I'm sure the game will play well but holy hell does it sound like the wussed out on the story.

 

[Graphics Horse]

Certainly the most interested I've been in a Far Cry game since Far Cry 3.

Good to see the cretins hoping for Race War: The Game have been disappointed as well. Hopefully it can be extracted from the steaming pile of political proxy war bullshit and discussed on its own merits now.

You think people would have learned their lesson after the FC4 art reveal

 

[Zolo]

I'm sure the game will play well but holy hell does it sound like the wussed out on the story.

We'll have to wait for dev diaries, but it sounds like people mostly just made assumptions and are disappointed based off speculation.
