Far cry 2 map editor...on a console

link:gametrailers

On the 360 in this video actually. So do u think it will match up on both consoles? Do u think the editor will rival halo 3's? What do u think?

I think its going to be awesome, but harder to share maps, halo 3 has it down to a science.

The pc verison will obviously be light years better with allowing mods, in-depth scripting and all that good jazz like making your own textures :D

i doubt it will rival halo 3s :DSaintsRowSam

the graphics as decent on consoles too. I think i'm going to get the game on pc and rent it on 360, or ps3 depending on the reviews.

I was addicted to the Far Cry Instincts map editor for a while. This pratically had me drooling.

i doubt it will rival halo 3s :DSaintsRowSam

In Halo 3 you can't make your own maps you just move items around, in Far Cry 2 you create your own mapspidadragon1

It seems to have limits to amounts of stuff but is simple. Many PC editors (Cryteks Sandbox 1 and 2) are far more deep. Consoles has good map editors, like Far Cry instincts (um... same series). That is a freaking nice editor though, sure beats Halo's forge mode. Hope the PC version is this good.Angry_Bosmer

Oh yes, if u want 360 gameplay as well, like from the singelplayer here is a video:

I want to get the pc verison but i don't know if i should get the 360 verison with it or not... my hp blackbird certainly can run the game with ease...

[QUOTE="Angry_Bosmer"] Of coarse the pc verison will be king...lol

Yeah but it might be one of those imposible to use Crytek editors.

The future, is it now?

But your still just moving items around right? :?

I swear, console users deny PC from claiming advantage from having a feature until it hits consoles, then all the sudden it's ground breaking stuff...AnnoyedDragon

It's marketing.

It doesn't make it any less irritating, especially after Sony boasted they 'invented' user content communities in E3.

Proof that PC gaming is dead. :roll:EuroMafia

Hey mentioning terrain whats the comment so far on the halo 3's map editor where u can actually make the ground and such thats hinted at in the latest halo 3 dev diary? BTW spida, u'r sorta right, then i guess i'll say u can design levels, not make maps...

Narrators got my accent :)

and hows this going to work on 360 with MS's stance on user created content?

Well sue them :lol:

What do you want to do? PCs outmatch consoles in everyway, so consoles need more pluses, they invent things.

Far Cry on the Xbox had the same thing.Jamex1987

[QUOTE="Jamex1987"]Far Cry on the Xbox had the same thing.LibertySaint

Bigger? Far Cry on Xbox was 2 player deathmatch size when Far Cry 2 is 2 hour mission size.

When Forge gets the September update I won't have any reason to buy this game. Halo 3's file share system is absolutely brilliant, and with a real map editor and custom bots to go with it, it's going to own my life.

And it won't cost me a dime.

I'm gonna make a plateau-jumping map where the only way to move between the bases or whatever is to jump the huge gaps with a car. There will be no weapons. The only way to kill people is to get them to fall off. So it'll turn into this weird destruction derby Dukes of Hazzard platforming thing.

At least it sounds cool in my head.

Well sue them :lol:

I know there is nothing that can be done about it, it is just so irritating how two faced console users are.

Remember when consoles were too good for patches? How console users would make fun of PC for 'needing' post release support? Funny how making fun of that went away right around the time they got them.

My next bet is on MMOs, MMOs have been on PC for years and is occasionally poked fun at by consoles. Both Sony and Microsoft announced MMOs at E3, let's see how long it takes for console users to suddenly become friendly to subscription gaming.

What's that all about then? Details seem to be very vague. Dude in wireframe level.

Was the video not fairly obvious with the map editor and the bots? As for the September date, I don't know where that came from. Everyone else seems pretty confident in it though.

I suppose it is all rumor, but I don't see how that thing at the end wasn't a map editor.

As a big Forge fan myself, I could die happy with a Halo 3 map editor, and I'm pretty sure they'll deliver. Bungie listens to their community, and a real map editor has always been in high demand. If it's true, I can finally make quality maps without spending days interlocking boxes.

So this confirms the game to have multiplayer?

amazing stuff btw

i doubt it will rival halo 3s :DSaintsRowSam

Yeah... so you must believe Halo 3 is also the most influential FPS ever developed as well?

Speaking of Halo 3s Forge. Did any of you see Bungies Edge acceptance speech? They strongly hinted at a fully fuctional Map editor for Halo 3 :)

Edit: Beat me to it.

Halo 3's forge is complete garbage compared to this. I'm sorry, but it is.Cedmln

''In your opinion'' :P
