I already explained how it was an issue in detail. So I will not waste my time elaborating.Originally Posted by googlebright Go to original post

THAT was my POINT, it appeared in the post I quoted of his he obfuscated this "fact", in order to promote his negative opinion - I was trying to be polite. You'll notice he saddled up a different horse to CYA so to speak.Originally Posted by googlebright Go to original post
You do realize takedowns were only added into the series in Far Cry 3? that's 7 titles without the mechanic (including spin-offs) where as there's only 5 titles with the mechanic. So calling takedowns a staple mechanic of the series is the furthest from correct you could be.Originally Posted by St.Million Go to original post
But anyway, there's got to be a sense of progression, however I do agree slightly with you that the inability to have takedowns on basic enemies at the start is a little strange, because you'd expect the closest outpost to have no Heavy's so the game starts off easier but gets more difficult as you explore more. Although I sense the developers made it that way so you could go around and explore a bit first before jumping into the outposts, so you can level up a little and gain a bit of gear.
Is it really fair to count all the various incarnations of the instincts games as separate titles? FC instincts predator was just a remaster of instincts/ evolution from the OG xbox gen to the 360 gen, and FC Vengence was the same as well, just made for the Wii with a new level or 2. Paradise lost is just an on rails arcade shooter of instincts as well. To me, it doesn't seem like a legit claim to say those are all separate titles without the takedown mechanic when they're all practically the same game just made for a variety of platforms.... Even being generous about it I think you can only say there are 4 titles prior to FC3. Also, since they were introduced, yes,I think it's safe to say takedowns have been a staple of the series, however they sadly seem to have taken a back seat and been de-emphasized rather than expanded upon of late....Originally Posted by DapperHayden007 Go to original post
