why is it that every time i watch a game journalist gameplay video, they are always frustratingly terrible? You'd think, since they devoted their lives and careers to this field, theyd atleast be pretty good, borderline excellent. How can you love video games so much as to devote your career to it, and look like you've never actually finished a game before?


Like these videos arent just bad, as i said earlier, its FRUSTRATINGLY bad, jesus christ just standing on one roof in the same spot using a grenade launcher the whole time saying "this is extremely hard, as you can see"...try, i dunno, using some stealth and actually moving around the map taking out the NPCs one by one with an actual gun? I seriously wanted to punch my monitor until the screen cracked, this was so bad.

@sam80jr In the wise words of my father when I raged quit when I played Dark Souls. "Calm down it's just a game".

i dunno if its just the quality of the video giving it that cartoonish look, but this reminds me of the Opening missions in Borderlands 2 so bad...

This looks like a good stand-alone expansion for the Farcry Series. Oh, its "4"? They thought "Hey. SRIV did it, we should too!" This shit is retarded, animations are exactly the same, they probably drew textures and slapped the 4 logo.

Jeez, am I the only one stoked for this game? Sure the mechanics look very similar to FC3 but that doesn't seem like a bad thing to me. It's a great foundation to build on, IMO. New locale, new animals, new story, a few new mechanics here and there (co-op free roam!)--that's all I need to be sold on it.

@jfmorris I'm lookin' forward to it, though I'm getting sick of FPS games in general. The only thing that really worries me is the PC version though... seeing as it's Ubisoft. The game itself seems like it should be quite fun though!

Is it so darn difficult to make an improvement for AI? This game feels like Far Cry 3.1

One real gripe I have with so many games in recent times are the illogical "tracking" systems that essentially take away gamer creativity, ingenuity and quick-thinking required to play various styles. I know in the 3rd Far Cry you can turn it off for weapons but even just to scope out a base you had these ridiculous highlights over AI characters so you can track them. What, in the world the game is set in, enables your character the uncanny ability to view people through walls? I hope in FC4 you can turn off the feature so that the challenge to capture a base is ramped up from FC3 and you actually have to anticipate where guys are or find a really good vantage point to decide your course of action.

@Sjalasvalten Agreed. I don't so much mind them being marked on the map, but being able to see their silhouettes through walls and the like is a feature I always remove if I'm able... and it's not always an option to remove such things, especially in Ubisoft games... they seem to enjoy excessive HUD implementation!

Ubisoft has game development down to a science. Unfortunately, a good game requires a soul, and that got lost along the way.

Did the player sucked so bad or was it intentional? And I hope they correct the "immortality"

@macaque12 clearly they always use some form of "god mode" for these videos. Even with, as i stated above, how terrible ALL game journalists seem to be at actually playing video games, have u ever seen one of them die during a gameplay video? They must enable a form of god mode for these videos otherwise it wud be even more frustrating to watch than it already is...instead of watching someone who looks likes theyve never held a controller before, it would just be a montage of death-cam scenes and respawns. Seriously, do game journalists even actually play video games? or do they just get hired based on looks and personality? I've yet to see a gameplay demo on ANY of the major sites like gamespot, IGN, PC gamer, etc.. where the journalist/presenter wasnt absolutely TERRIBLE.

@sam80jr @macaque12 Now that you mentioned it, I think I've never seen a game journalist die in a playthrough. I'm not sure they hire people by the looks, but it would explain why big boob ladys and girly looking guys are a fenomena in the gaming industry right now. (this is what got me out of youtube let's players)

mmm nice AI. I like the guy who wasn't alerted to an elephant crashing through the front gates, then when he saw it, immediately threw himself in front of it. It's what you get for hiring deaf guards with depression problems.

Surely the protagonist is more bullet than man at this point...

Oh and thanks for riding an elephant! Next time try and surf one after you've dismounted. :D
