    I agree with Steve64, there has been more interaction with the ComMans/Devs this go around. Genuine interest in our opinions and actual interactions and discussions.

    I have high hopes we will all be pleased with whatever they are doing for us! (fingers crossed of course)

    I would honestly rather they take their time to make sure the finished product works well than to rush it through and have it not fully complete at launch. I wouldn't worry too much about a lack of info. They seem to like to wait for a while and then release a lot of info all at once.

    FC5 Map editor

    I just pray to god that people aren't able to download and then just re-upload someone elses map like we can do in FC4.

    Downloading and editing other maps are fine (imo), but uploading them as your own, is really absurd.

    I'm not sure about you guys, but I'm tired of seeing 500 copies of 1 map in the map browser on FC4, I don't want the same thing to happen on FC5, I believe some people stay away from sharing their maps too because of this reason.

    It might have helped a tiny bit if the original map creators name was on the map when the name showed up just before starting, that data was hidden in More Info and if you didn't check you wouldn't know someone else had made it.

    At least then if some kid said I made this map they would look an idiot because it would say the original creators name.

    I see a a lot of skeptacism in this thread and it is not without good reason. I too think that if FC5 was going to be the package that will deliver us even greater heights that what was experienced in FC2 then it would be announced by now, and a great deal would go into illustrating it's capability. It would be advertised a great deal and fleshed out in a way that we don't only know what we are getting but are getting proof how great it's going to be.

    Perhaps I am just jumping the gun here but the more time moves along and the closer we get to release date the more skeptical I am that there is going to be pivatol failures in the delivery of the map editor. I am glag we got a ubisoft reply but as times go by and no solid word is given, I don't think that FC5 will be able to deliver the list we all want in FC5.

    -8v8 symetrical multiplayer
    -Vehicles
    -Custom lobbies with map playlists and voting mechanics

    If the map is good enough then the original should be the one that becomes the most downloaded/highest rated and shouldn't be taken off its pedastal and shouldn't be toppled/buried by endless re-uploads and re-edits.

    Guys, the commdevs were clear, we will get info soon, but itll be scheduled on EVENT days....they said to wait until the next even for more info...theres a PS Experience event coming up they said, and info would be released then, so I stop asking for it right now, they essentially gave us a schedule of the release of more info!

    (Im not trying to sound like a jerk but they were pretty clear about that)

    They have not told us when we'll get ME or MP info, they've only given general information about when something might get shown off. They have a history of misleading us and so far history has been repeating itself with this game as well.

    I don't understand this at all. Ubisoft have literally shown us 1 area of the game (not even the full world, just 1 small area) and you guys are saying it's just the MP and editor being held back?

    Most people complained with all the Trailers for FC3 as it gave too much away, so Ubisoft are quite simply, holding back on every part of the game until closer to release.

    If they didn't care for the editor, why would they start up Map Jams and even announce the editor at the beginning (Something they have never done before)


    They've even confirmed some news already (which people complained about!)
    For me, I honestly don't care if they don't spend too much marketing the IGE, I care more if they spend a lot CREATING the new IGE, you know, so it's much more improved from it's predecessors.

    I never said implicitly that they will give THAT info out, just that MORE info was coming at the PS Experience, which is a little over a week away.

    They did however imply that they might give info about the IGE and/or MP due to the thread that that comment was made in...so ya, I wouldnt be surprised if SOME info regarding either of those topics was released.

    History hasnt really been repeating itself imo, they have taken,, what, twice the time to build this game? That means there is likely significant improvements made to EVERY aspect of the game, from the graphics, to the SP, MP, COOP, IGE, etc...

    Bear in mind this game is still a WIP, things are likely subject to change STILL, and they cant release info if that system isnt gold.

    Lets just wait and see what the 9th and 10th of Dec brings???
