Is it just me, or is he sounding less British and more Australian.Delsage
Yeah I caught that too. Well he sounded different at least.
[QUOTE="Lto_thaG"][QUOTE="Delsage"]Is it just me, or is he sounding less British and more Australian.DelsageI noticed it too :P Glad it wasn't just me then. :) it's south african he's doing, i think because of the setting of the game. australian is distinctly different.
He is right about most the stuff but I actually liked FC2. It gave me 40 hrs or SP and for a shooter that is hard to come by. Some of the missions became boring after a while but there is something satisfying about sneaking into the fortress past enemy snipers, assassinating the target w/o alerting anyone and then planting an IED near some ammo or explosives and sneaking away only to blow everything up.
Big time pacing issues and the MP suite is hot dooky but I actually really enjoyed it. Think I might play some more tonight.
agreed. it's not fantastic but it did provide some entertainment. the mp editor is really sweet too. problem with the mp right now is too many maps friendly to snipers, so it just ends up being a sniper camp-fest. if people created more maps that were balanced im sure it would be better.. im working on one, heh. but it takes a lot of time to make a good map.He is right about most the stuff but I actually liked FC2.

What the **** is wrong with his voice? :|
If he was trying to emulate an African accent, he's failed miserably.
I really hope you guys are joking about him sounding different lol
I've only played a few hours of far cry 2 but so far I really like it. To be fair though, i didn't read any of the hype about the game, so I had no expectations before hand.
I completely agree with him there.
I personally am trading in the game soon for killzone 2, I cant stand it... you drive around for 10 mins in what seems to be the same piece of land copied and pasted 1000 times to a short mission, the same as all the other missions youve done before, only to have to drive for another 10 mins to save the game, all while everyone alive wants you dead, meaning every 30 seconds you must stop and watch the same animation of your man fising the car.
how does ubisoft manage to make the ssame mistake again and again??? Assassins creed had mission problems but farcry 2 takes it to a whole new level...
Im not even going to try and complete it, its not fun, the online is horrible, downloading other peoples shoddy maps takes longer than the average game lasts, it sucks...

I agree with everything you say, except I thought the online was average, not horrible. I still play the game even with all these problems, I kinda like it for reasons I can't put my finger on.
[QUOTE="Delsage"]Is it just me, or is he sounding less British and more Australian.jg4xchampi know what you mean after watching the video...he did sound a bit different :P I watched it and closed the thread and when i got done watching I reopened to see if anyone else thought he sounded different :lol: mission accomplished!
[QUOTE="Verge_6"]Currently in a class, so can anyone tell me how badly he so rightfully tears this game a new one?Lto_thaGHe likes the visuals..and it goes downhill from there.I agree with him.
The graphics were pretty bad also... well on the 360 version anyway

He was doing a sort of crappy impersonation of somebody from that region to demonstrate how bad the accents are in the game.
farcry 2 was a bigger disappointment than spore. SPORE!!!
at least spore kept me hooked for about 20ish hours before it turned downhill. I couldn't even bring myself to finish farcry 2.
Its a game thats all about genocide..
All you do is shoot people cause someone tells you too, its not fun, it doesn't seem too serve any purpose..
Why do game devs think everyone wants too perform genocide on black people? It doesnt make sence..
Worst game of this generation.
Wow, every time a thread is made about FC2 I cant do anything but critize it.. I just hate it, gave it 6 hours and it didnt progress at all..
Wow am I glad I didn't listen to you people and Yahtzee on this game. Sure, it is repetitive and some missions just feel pointless, but I love the immersion and slight realism there is. Maybe I like it so much because I was never hyped for it until a month after it released. But still, this is another case, like Assassin's Creed, where the reviews were mostly accurate but the feedback here was overwhelmingly negative. I suggest that anyone interested in this game rent or buy it before reading feedback.Jack_Bauer07that's not true. There were many people who felt the need to tear into assassin's creed, but reviewers loved it, including Yahtzee. Plus, if you read between the lines, you would notice that there were many regular people who loved the game. It's just that there's enough wrong with it that I doubt there are many fans of the game that are as passionate in their love of the game as there are fans who passionately hated it. btw, for anyone who is curious, assassin's creed requires you to be a forgiving player, but it offers a unique experience. Assassin's Creed 2 could possibly be one of the best games of the gen if they smooth over the issues in the game and develop the great points.
He sounds so much ****ing different than just week, actually. What the hell happened? The way he pronounces things... I thought at first he was just making fun of someone, but the way he said some things... like "LittleBigPlanet" and "immersion..." I like his old voice better. It seems so strange now...DeathScape666that's a joke: he said the game was using a cheesy version of a real south african accent, and then he started using a cheesy version of his own accent to ridicule the game. I'm glad he didn't water the joke down by making it obvious, but a lot of people aren't getting it.

That was the point of him doing the accent. He was mocking how bad the South African accents were in FarCry 2. I'm surprised how this flew over so many people heads.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking at first, but it threw my off when he used it during the whole thing. It wouldn't make sense for his voice to change that much in the course of a week. :P Glad to know.

It amazes me that people didn't get it and they thought that his actual accent had started to change to be more....australian?
and these are the same people that are bashing far cry 2 for being rubbish.
Currently in a class, so can anyone tell me how badly he so rightfully tears this game a new one?Verge_6Apparently south Africans are mutants because they have strange accents...
