The damn age verification thing ain’t working for me either. Maybe it’s because i’m not a gamespot member… anyway, Far Cry 2 looks great! I’m so getting it! (October 21st in america)>(October 24 in europe).

Crysis most definitely had a different sort of movement from the standard FPS. Crytek attempted to make player movement fit an FBA model. Much the same way as Arma does, but not taking it quite as far.

The embedded version works for me. Maybe it’s buggy if you’re not a Gamespot member?

Anyways, I’m not surprised to see that kind of gameplay (stealth), since Clint was game designer and scriptwriter on Splinter Cell and was the creative force behind SC:CT after all.

All in All, I’m pretty excited for this game. Clint is really interested in having both fun gameplay and engaging story, which is what I value in a game so, it should be a winner for me.

@AbyssUK, there’s just a short delay on the front page version of your comment.

Finally, in-game napping action. Now I can catch up on all those naps I miss while I’m at work!

Far Cry 1 was heavy and awesome. This looks like it has the lightness of Crysis/ Far Cry: Instincts. No meat, no heftiness; i.e. what made FarCry for me.

@Ghiest: Given that Far Cry and Crysis were developed by Crytek and not Ubisoft and that the game has a new engine, it’d be quite a feat if they managed to make it feel exactly the same.

I personally didn’t play Far Cry and I didn’t notice anything off about the movement in Crysis. Still, your concerns should be remedied…. if only to be replaced by others.

Clearly I need a new PC… just to play the dammed video let alone the game

EDIT : Also please RPS make it when I edit my posts because of my terrible spelling it also edits the post summary thing in the respond opinion away bar on the front page..

Unless they have fixed how the game feels to play then I still won’t be buying it. Both crysis and far cry had this weird feel to how things move and feel within the game itself, it just feels off to me. Yer sure the graphics are nice but when you drop everything else for graphics something has to suffer.

I meant to mention earlier that I was hoping the video would feature stuff from wherever that screenshot at the top was taken. That place looks like it’ll be a lot of fun to attack. :)

Is that the console version? As it doesn’t look half as good as the previous videos they’ve shown of this game.
