Farcry 4 coming to Xbox One, PS4, Xbox 360, PS3 & PC November 18!

I liked everything about FarCry 3 except the save system. The save system kind of ruined the game for me.

In open world games, at the end of the night when I'm done playing, I'll usually take my character to the area of the next quest I plan to do, save then log out of the game.This way the next time I play I can get right into the action. Unfortunately the way saves work in this game I'd end up back at a sanctuary and have to make that trip all over again. It's not game breaking by any means and if I were reviewing the game I'd dock it maybe .2-.5 points but it still irritated me enough to stop playing at the time.

I'll definitely get back to it at some point tho as I really LOVED sneaking up and putting arrows in the back of the heads of bad guys.
 
WOW. Game looks amazing. Looks huge. I just hope that new crossbow has not replaced the Bow. I loved the old school style bow.
 
Gameplay looks great! I hope you can use classic bow. Although I'm really curious how this will look on 360, I'm just happy it's on the 360 at all.
 
Really, who needs exclusives when a game like this is coming out. Fall is going to be jam packed with quality AAA games.
 
Color me impressed,It's been awhile since I got goosebumps watching a videogame, I just hope it dosent change like watchdogs between now and release. I can't wait to build my pc now!

Maybe it's been awhile, but I don't recall any save issues with the game. I thought I unlocked multiple areas through out the map that allowed me to save my progress near my lastest mission.

Pretty much there were enough outposts around the map that you'd never be to far from your next mission,assuming you'd captured a fair share of outposts... I certainly never felt any kind of annoyance about the save system either...

I wasn't planning on getting the game but BB had a price error so I managed to get the Kyrat Limited Edition (MSRP of $150) for $48.99 with the E3 preorder promo.
 
I am going to get this but you can sure tell its a cross gen game. Doesn't look a whole lot different than FarCry 3.
 
As I said before, I LOVE that it's coming to 360. Still, the only bad thing about it is that I know there will not be any footage or news on the last gen versions until after they are released. That's the annoying thing about cross-gen games, I can't buy a game day 1 unless I want the first time I play the game to be the first time I ever see how it runs on that system. Quite a gamble.

Good, Far Cry 3 was awesome.

Yeah, even if it was next-gen only I don't think they'd change much about it design-wise, FC3 was a big success for them, obviously they don't wanna fix what isn't broken...
 
This will be the first Far Cry I've ever purchased, that demo was awesome.

Might be a bit outdated by now but you missed out on FC3 man, it was really good. FC4 looks like they're taking everything 3 did right, crankin' it up a notch and adding some other cool elements to it, looks very cool, can't wait...

So I reinstalled FC3 to give it another shot because sometimes I'm not in the mood for certain games but play them later and LOVE them (Fallout 3, Batman Arkham Asylum are just two).

And now I remember why I stopped playing it. It wasn't the save system, although that doesn't help (still want the same type of save system fallout 3/nv have for open world games).

It was the mission I'm on. I take my ass way the hell out to the Medusa (IIRC) and kill like 9 dudes, including the two important ones for a key and some other quest object. I then carefully move around behind cover using the camera to spot enemies. I see nothing so I proceed with the quest.

MISSION FAILED! YOU HAVE BEEN SPOTTED! The enemies did something with some thing you need.

Basically game over, try again.

And I hate that in ANY game, instant mission failure for anything other than death or killing certain NPC's is not fun for me.

pretty game tho.

I remember that mission, took some time to get it right and I agree not the highlight of the game.

One thing for FC4 I want is to not hand hold for all the loot. As soon as you open up an area you see everything on the map. I want treasure to feel like you actually found treasure or relics. The game made it way too easy to find the stuff.
