[hemo memo]

Turn based fps.

Survival horror open world FPS

 

[Dr. Suchong]

It will be a good game then?

My first (cynical) thought

 

[GymWolf]

They better go back to their roots

Far cry was never about slavery.

 

[Dav-Kripler]

 

[j0hnnix]

Far Cry 9 will be going a completely different direction.

 

[junguler]

mfgtow, far_cry going their own way.

 

[Shubh_C63]

Of course.

FC6 would be the last franchise entry as a singleplayer game. Ubi is working a model to turn FC7 into GaaS.

 

[Zimmy68]

Jason also says, there are a few developers that had to work 41 hours one week. The grind is too much!

 

[base]

It will take place in Europe and the main character will be a terrorist ;-)

 

[SLB1904]

free to play. anyway rip far cry had fun with 3,4 and 5

 

[Birdo]

Hopefully that direction is down the toilet.

 

[CaptainofIndustry]

What about Far Cry 8? Do we have any info on that one?

 

[Rheon]

It needs to go in a direction that doesn't involve another game.

For at least a couple of years.

 

[Castef]

Full fantasy I say.

 

[TheThreadsThatBindUs]

It'll be a massively multiplayer online battle royale, filled to the brim with MTXs.

 

[Dream-Knife]

So FC7 which comes out in?.....2024?

 

[cormack12]

Magic pls.

 

[Toots]

He says that.
And i say he's a uninteresting dwarf full of crap who craves attention, and Ubisoft is going to do the same shit they always do with FC7...

So are you gonna trust your affable neogaf friend or that lame excuse of a human being?

Spoiler: you know what to do

 

[Shut0wen]

I hope so, far cry 3 was a very good game but fucking hell ubi has been riding that since it released, i havent played 5 but played 4 afew months ago, didnt find it as enjoyable as 3 but its a decebt game but like most ubisoft games they throw some much repetitive shit that after afew hours it gets incredibly stale

 

[Codes 208]

Maybe finish your current game before discussing your next.

 

[N0S]

Third person stealth action

 

[Firestartah]

Ubisoft is such a boring company and maybe the games industry in general lately actually. You have this IP thats a huge seller , its open world and shooter, why not go nuts like to another planet..fight dinos or strange creatures. The only semi-wild thing they ever did with this francize was Blood Dragon which yes was really good although super short..

Like come on...out of those 1k devs nobody has a good idea to back it up and push for it? how many times we gonna go open world in green plains/jungles/forests killing generic enemies...

They went post-apoc but lets be real it was bs, a rehash of their old map with some ruined stuff in it...go nuts if you wanna change, go Mad Max, distant planet, future ice age...

 

[Alebrije]

"From what I have heard, if I remember correctly......" lol

 

[TheMan]

a big fat nothing here, but yeah in theory i think it would be great if they could shake things up a bit. The gameplay has been pretty similar since FC3.

 

[Portugeezer]

We'll see if he is right in 3-4 years, the anticipation of him being wrong killing me...

 

[TheGodfather07]

i mean its ubisoft. how different will it really be? i wish they would stop with the massive worlds and millons of collectibles and give us meaty quests and actual good characters.

 

[Alebrije]

a big fat nothing here, but yeah in theory i think it would be great if they could shake things up a bit. The gameplay has been pretty similar since FC3.

Its been the same game with different skins , same happens to AC series since Origins.

 

[PleaseDontBanMe]

its called marketing

dont take it so seriously OP

 

[TrueLegend]

WTF is this thread

 

[EverydayBeast]

I respect Fry Cry’s efforts but to many it’s just another shooter.

 

[GMAK2442]

I don't think killing The Gards is a good idea. So good news.

 

[mitch1971]

Farcry 7 will be followed by farcry 8. See, I can do it too, Jason.

 

[Umbasaborne]

Probably a multiplayer only service shit game

 

[MMaRsu]

Woopti fucking doo

 

[Dav-Kripler]

We're not political...

 

[Negotiator101]

Third person?

 

[mhirano]

Assuming any if this were true, I'd guess they're talking about setting, not mechanics. No longer will the game satirize the CIA's interferance in developing nations. Now a first world nation, probably the US, will be the target for some heavy-handed satire. Like a darker Watch Dogs or maybe a wackier Tom Clancy game.

US satire...
Did you mean Far Cry 5?

 

[zeorhymer]

Back to climbing up towers to open the map?

 

[Zannegan]

US satire...
Did you mean Far Cry 5?

I was thinking major city setting rather than the ozarks and totes not Antifa rather than the redneck resistance as your allies, but yeah.

 

[zcaa0g]

Back to Far Cry 1?

 

[abcdrstuv]

Still dying to make my Far Cry: Sherwood Forest pitch

 

[MaDBrute]

lol we all know its gonna be a triple A f2p game. the new ubishit model to take money from mtx.

Just like AC:Valhalla

 

[Elbow Identity Shallow]

 

[Spukc]

I am impressed people still play ubisoft games

 

[Camreezie]

"Sequel not the same as last" - Jason Schreier
Well I'm fucking shocked

 

[Freeman76]

Jokes aside, I feel like Far Cry biggest distinguishing features is their villain performance, which is hampered by being a open world game where narrative takes a backseat.

I can see Ubi trying to make a more linear experience ala TLOU, where the cinematics take focus

These clowns couldnt write a bedtime story though!

 

[G Boaty]

Try as I might, I have no faith in Ubisoft to put out any AAA game even remotely original or interesting these days. Even if it's a new direction for Far Cry, it'll be as dull and lifeless as everything else they've put out in the last decade.

 

[Prof. Tivor Tontomo]

Far Cry has been bad for awhile so this is a good thing. It tried to have this image of an open FPS Adventure but the last several games had bland uninteresting works, worsening gunplay, and terrible or generic plots.

 

[A Rifter in Space]

Oh look, Schreier the liar plopping out another useless piece of gossip that people lap up because he says things they like.

 

[IbizaPocholo]

Far Cry 7 could be more online-oriented, it’s claimed | VGC

It was previously suggested Ubisoft may take the series in a “radically different direction”…

www.videogameschronicle.com

An Axios source said Ubisoft has been exploring a more online-oriented approach for a new entry in the long-running franchise.

Earlier this week, it emerged that Ubisoft may have included a teaser in Far Cry 6 hinting at a potential multiplayer game set in the Far Cry universe.
