No I hadn't spotted that. Good catch. That's.... weird.Originally Posted by Titangilas Go to original post
So maybe there will be some cool pseudo-fantasy type weapons in the game. *Maybe* it has prehistoric dressing, but still Far Cry gonzo crazy action adventure via some "stonepunk" weaponry and gadgets (at least to a limited degree). That would be pretty cool. Pots filled with fire eh? Interesting.
Maybe we'll see things like blowguns with sleep darts, beehive bombs (or whatever the frightening equivalent of prehistoric swarming insects would be? O.o), sharpened bone caltrops, clay jars of flammable sticky resin and so forth (yes Ubi I *am* available for hire - really you should check out my mods some time)
Hopefully the player will be able to construct traps as well - deadfalls, snares, punji pits, etc. to lead predators into.
Be fantastic if it was a giant sloth, but the scale for that image is all wrong (if it is actually to scale - baby sloth?). I'm leaning more towards Oros being based off ancient North America so some kind of prehistoric otter wouldn't be out of the question. If so we may have majestic rivers and huge wood log dams to explore and traverse.Originally Posted by Titangilas Go to original post
10 Gold Stars for that find!! Nice work!Originally Posted by Titangilas Go to original post
But also poop... that looks a little too gimmicky for my liking. I mean come-on.. you can't exactly train an owl to carry a flaming basket!
I don't want to say for definite, but my man, that is a honey-badger if I ever saw one!Originally Posted by Titangilas Go to original post
( P.S.A. : Honey badgers are terrifying creatures, and really should just be left alone at all costs! )
Yes, that is a honey badger fighting a lion. I told you they are terrifying!

*Derp and of course I meant BEAVER not otter. Prehistoric beaver <giggles>. From wikipedia (yeah I know the worst source of reliable information on the internet):
"Castoroides, or giant beaver, is an extinct genus of enormous beavers that lived in North America during the Pleistocene. C. leiseyorum and its northern sister species Castoroides ohioensis, were the largest beavers to ever exist."
"That's one big beaver Takkar"
"Mmm yes. Giant beaver. Zug Zug"
Hey Titangilas - I posted your find on my Far Cry FB page here (along with credit to you for spotting and pointing it out from the game's cover): https://www.facebook.com/FarCryMods
Great catch bro. Now what other hidden gems are there??
