So if I play this stoned what will be the interaction between the real drugs and the virtual ones?

Every single trailer so far seems to have the bad guy saying the F word. I understand that the guys crazy, and I don't mind swearing, but jeeze. Game's looking good.

I really liked certain parts of Far cry 2, but hope they can round it out a bit more this time around.

Wow. I really love the angle they're going for. The "unreal" scenes are intriguing, I can't wait to see what they do with it!

Also, the color palette is amazing!

If a rabbid doesn't make an appearance during a hallucination I'll be disappointed.

 Crytek's heritage in the wrong hands while Crytek is too busy being not-Crytek. What a fucking shame.

Is there going to be dubstep in-game? This is a serious fucking deal breaker for me. No better way to throw the atmosphere out of the window by tossing in some WUB WUB WUB.

I'm one of the few that loves most of FC2. Another iteration, fixing the issues and setting it back in paradise, can't wait!

The hallucinogenic aspect is interesting, mainly cause I like the fact we can have a game nowadays that straight up has the line "This is some craaaazyyy shit" whilst dude is fucked on some weird mushrooms.

This looks weird. Hopefully it ends up being a bit more directed than Farcry 2. I want to blow things up with explosive and shoot someone's face off, not hunt for diamonds and try to plot routes that go around those checkpoints filled with enemies that respawn every 20 minutes.

FUCK. It looks so fun! If warxsnake was the dude who modeled the guns--good job, friend, they look so good!

I do hope it's still a bit sand-box-y, but a bit more linearity compared to Far Cry 2 wouldn't hurt at all.

I really enjoy moments in first person shooters where you see your hands grab onto ledges and objects rather than the usual camera floating in a void.

Liberal use of the inception button!

I think this game is going to be badass, but the frame rate looks kinda low, and some effects still need some polishing. Maybe they're still working on it or something.

Can't wait though!

Looks great. Hopefully it's as interesting as Far Cry 2, despite the change of setting.

Man these trailers for Far Cry 3 have me real interested. It seems like they are finding a good middle ground for crazy weird stuff in the first Far Cry and the attempt at emotional conflict in Far Cry 2.

I was skeptical but interested when I first saw the demo last year. Now that I see how dark and twisted the story is though, I know I'll be picking this one up.

I'm getting a lot more of a Far Cry 2 vibe from this trailer, especially since I'm in the middle of a second playthrough right now...getting into the vehicle turret, the melee kills, the hang glider, etc. The voice acting already sounds a lot better than FC2. The accents were good, but every single character sounded like they were in a competition to see who could spit their lines out the fastest. Fucking aggravating.

God damn it, now I just know that whatever their bullshit take on hallucinogens is will piss me off. Even if it shouldn't.

But otherwise this game looks really good. I hadn't noticed how far they'd gone towards that hard-edged look, but either way the game is pretty as hell. If they give the player a little more direction than they did in Farcry 2, and give the narrative a little more impact (it all felt a bit muted in 2), I think this could actually make good on the promise the Farcry games have always had.

To be fair, that's what I thought in the run-up to two.
