Far Cry Instincts Predator

[Matt KB]

Bah I was hoping I was just having an off day, seems other people are finding it dissapointing too. Just fired it up again, yep still a bit rubbishy.

[Jusatsushi]

Anyone tried it online yet as that is the main reason I'll be getting it?

The map editor is worth the admission price alone. If it had AI bots then it'll be perfect!

I disagree, the crud aiming is still present in the multiplayer maps therefore this feature is ruined too.

[Wools]

Not at all, the aiming is not perfect but the setting, enjoyable weapons, ok AI and stunning map maker make this a really good game!

Granted this is no Halo, GoldenEye or Half Life 2. But it's great fun, good looking and the map maker makes it for me, a simply brillant game. It's the most versitile and easy to use console map maker ever made.

Ok AI? Are you playing a different game :P the AI sucks beyond belief. The map editor is pretty good to be fair, although the amount of time you spend making it is only comparable to the amount of time you spend downloading the bastard for online games when you join a room. Only to find out you've got some Yank kids piece of **** creation which is basically a big puddle and a tower in the middle.

I can't believe the aiming though, they've pissed it right up Fortunately the AI is so crap you can get point blank to them and just pop em in the face

Then again people told me tha aiming was off in PD0, I must just broke.

[nonny]

Can someone please expand on what is broken in the aiming?

I really enjoyed FCI on Xbox mainly for the multiplayer and map editor. I had no issues hosting 10-12 player games as I have an ADSL2+ connection so really as I am not interested in the singleplayer as long as the aiming is as its was on Xbox its fine by me.

So when you say its broke, whats broke? Is it possibly because the 360 controllers have a slightly looser feel to the controller S and thats causing it or is it actually implemented wrong in the game?

Cheers, even if I do buy it I'll pick up the region free Asian version cheap.

Picked this up yesterday and it really is borked. How ubi-wank took an xbox game and managed to break it for 360 is beyond me, but online it is a stittery laggy mess.

SP is a minor graphical enhancement but not really worth ?50.

[Wools]

How ubi-wank

Very witty.

Jesus

[MJ]

I'm glad I didn't preorder this now. I might check it out when it drops to ?20 or less.

[Jusatsushi]

Very witty.

yeah, probably not my most mature post ever, but hey, I was hung-over and pissed off that Ubi's recent 360 titles (Recon and this) struggle with Live. Broadband connection can't handle teamspeak? Umm, ok.

[Wools]

Ah I'm just being a nagging git. Don't worry about it

[Plisken]

i take it all back! turn off the aim-assist which is set default to on (grr) in the options and it doesn't force chest shots, making head capping so much easier. also the evolution story is really, really good, and incredbily open just like PC Far Cry

enter the cheat code GiveMeItAll to unlock it from the start, if you don't want to play through Instincts again.

The aiming is still totally screwed though, making it nigh on impossible to make accurate, slight adjustments. I wanted to like this, i really did, but the aiming (let alone the Artificial 'intelligence') just totally ruins it for me.
