Far Cry 2 Editor sets a new standard for console created content......(56k..no)

not LBP.....while LBP does allow you to create your own objects and items, the FC2 editor allows endless possibilities as long as you're mildly creative. The FC2 team took the original editor from Far Cry Instincts and gave it one massive kick to give us (the gamers) something incredible to take full advantage of.

Thus far, I've yet to see one single level done with the LBP editor that evens compares to these maps created with the FC2 editor.

The nice thing is that both PS3 and 360 owners will be able to have this amazing editor at their disposal.

say what you will, but this is one VERY impressive editor for not requiring ANY programming knowledge one bit. Easy to use and offers endless options for online play as long as your imagination doesn't run dry.

To tell you the truth...I think the fact that the LBP editor can do basic scripting puts it way above the Far Cry 2 editor....

not that it matters to...im mostly a PC gamer, and neither of these editors is really anything special to me.

Both editors are better then Crysis imo.

I am still playing TimeSplitters and making great maps. That and Neverwinter Knights.

LBP's other thing, is sharing those maps, something XBLive won't allow. Has this changed with FarCry 2?

We are talking 360 here, Live is a different beast since then. So, you are confirming that FarCry 2 will allow that? That's great!

Nedemis thanks, I was merely asking question.

FarCry 2 Allows Map Sharing on 360.

I agree with this.

Side note, Far Cry 2 is looking pretty dang good.

edit: the space given to the user in FC2 could easily be used to create massive single player levels so it's in the rhelm of possibility. Look at the first couple pics and look for any automobile. Now, picture a single character standing next to that and you can see just how huge the area is. Easily this is 4x as much space to build a level compared to FC: Instincts Preditor.

Far Cry 2 looks amazing

LBP looks way to childish! and going by the gameplay BORING!

oh yes it is....scripting has done insane things for certain PC games in the past...just look at all of valve's games.

and no, the Farcry 2 editor is multiplayer only...at least on the consoles.

Scripting online can be used to create new gameplay modes, as was frequently done in all Valve's games....and seeing as how gameplay wise Far cry 2's multiplayer is completly generic...thats something a lot of people are gonna be wishing for.

[QUOTE="Nedemis"]

what has scripting done for ONLINE portions of FPS's though. I didn't say it wasn't used in single player aspects, now did I?cobrax75

pretty much every...take the popular zombie mods for CSS...those are all scripted...or the Puzzle maps for HL2: Deathmatch....

actually the best example is probably garry's mod...where the entire multiplayer bassiclly consists of different scripts.

They dont even have to be new modes, a lot of Multiplayer scripts are for competative games....or alterations to the original game...like in a lot of Blizzard's titles.

Forge What? I will probably spend as much or more time in theis thanI do LBP! Amazing Ubisoft, thank you :).

Forge is a joke and even was when Halo3 came out seeing how Far Cry Instincts Preditor's editor is equally impressive considering it's only slightly improved over the Xbox Far Cry Instincts.

This has become my most anticipated game now. It better get good reviews or else i'll be broken :(.

Nedemis

Forge isn't a joke. They've created some damn good maps with the limited capability the system has. Sure, create the Eiffel tower and two pyramid islands. Some guy, with a dash of ingenuity, created a map that seemed to defy the laws of gravity with Halo 3.

This editor does look good though. Will probably get this for the PC.

That level looks just like a online map for CRYSIS WARS (Crysis Warheads online portion)

Neither would I, but the TC thinks they can be compared.

So wait are you saying that i will be able to use the Editor on the ps3?

or just download user generated content like UT3?

cobrax75

that's only the console version, PC has scripting, AI, paths, etc.

It's too bad only a small portion of the maps sent for approval will go through. That means if there's 50,000 maps sent for approval, only about 10 will go through.stappy

maps don't need to go through an approval process. You create, finalize, upload and it's all done.

Yes it is indeed the most amazing and time saving map editor ever made.Beats Crysis sandbox 2 and Little Big planet.You can actually create any type of enviroment you like forests,savana plains,deserts with pyramids,cities...etc...etclesner87

Umm.. You can create all of those in the Cryengine 2 editor...

so how are console players going to get this user content? Maybe on PS3, but probably no chance of ever seeing it on 360MikeE21286

by simply joining a room with a user created map in the play list. Maps auto download and then you enter the lobby or match (whichever one the rest of the room is in atm).

Farcy Instincts was on the 360 also and it allowed you to make/share maps

agreed..not so sure about the lem part though....

Wow, after seeing that, I may want to cancel my GeOW2 preorder and go for Far Cry 2

Has it been reviewed on 360 or PS3 yet?

I was under the impression that LBPs editor was awesome because of its ease of use, yet is still a powerful toolset?
