By the way, the game can play such a theme as kneeling.
As an irony or banter.
Rather fashionable today!
Fashionable and silly, for me.
To stand up to racism, to oppose police brutality and so on.....
It's like to oppose predators to eat meat.
Police - is apparatus of violence of the ruling class for surpression. That is how it always has been and always will be. It's its function.
Coloured people, from the beginning, were doomed to be a lower class in capitalist society. In the majority.
Initially, after slavery, they were in lower starting positions, in that pyramidal system.
To get education, to make a name, to get into the top class was very difficult for them.
Police is just have "to deal" with them, more often.
But all these problems are not in Racism!
All these problems is in modern system called - capitalism.
People are not racists.
But police have to deal with these guys again and again.
And, as it usually happens, one day a white cop is killing a black guy. And riots begin.
Again and again. From year to year. The same thing is repeated. And people hope for changing.
Insanity!
People are suffering. They're rioting. But they don't see the heart of the problem.
And there is no one to explain it to them.
They are like blind wounded bull rushing and crushing everything in its way.
Riot - is always negative. Revolution - is positive.
System changing is positive.
But system doesn't want to be changed. It has kept and will keep people blind.
There are billions spent on films about science, history, art.....
And there are no films about how modern political system works.
Because people won't like it.
Their power is based on people's ignorance.
System devides people and incite them against each other. Very cunningly - from within.
Outside - unity, inside - division.
Blacks against whites, homo against hetero, feminists against conservatives.....and so on. "Go F. with each other. Only don't touch us!"
It's not about racism!
Capitalism and racism are brothers.
Just look at that .....
That little Cuba is finished with racism once and for all.
It was the most racist country. (If its possible to say like this). With its slavery history.
When Che was fighting in the jungles as a partisan..... his future wife, being a cuban, was writing to him - "What?! You've got black soldiers in your squad?!!!"
She couldn't believe that black people could be a good guerillas. So racist her mentallity was.
She was raised that way.
And today....
It is finished with racism in Cuba.
Finished only becuase of revolution and system changing.
But if one day Cuba starts moving backward to capitalism......racism will return as a shaddow.

I have spoken with Ubisoft Support. One rep said to me that he will forward it to the securities team while another told me to bring it up with the moderators. I have already sent PMs to UbiArcane and Ubi-Swaguchi. So far no responseOriginally Posted by modmcsupersport Go to original post

In your place I would feel deep remorse.......At least, I didn't offer to fight against Castro forces.
I would feel guilty concience and start thinking more from now.
As for the situation in general.....
Ubisoft shouldn't hide itself in apolitism. Not now! Not in 2020!
Pacifism is the worst cowardice.
Pacifism and trying to stay away - is to side yourself with injustice. To be sided with the dark side.
Ubisoft should be in the forefront! In the vanguard!
And who if not Far Cry?!
Assassin's Creed is historic game. It would love to.....but, after all, it's history.
Far Cry is about present days. Far Cry should raise that banner!
Among big, present days, games.....as usual GTA is trying to do that.
But GTA 6 will not come soon, something about 2023.
In these important days....important years to the whole world, Ubisoft should show solidarity with the oppressed!
Games will be twice interesting to play, and better in sales!
Think about it, developers!

For upcoming Far Cry games in generall (so: main titles, spin-offs and maybe also DLCs) the aspect how the enemies react the the player could be pushed.
There are a few parts (e. g. in Far Cry 2 and Far Cry 3 - especially the flamethrower mission in Far Cry 3) where the enemies react in "special ways" to the player's character - e. g. "He has a flamethrowert!" (Far Cry 3). This aspect exists, also in later titles, but it is realy ... small.
In Far Cry 5 are a lot of Skins for the player's character, but they have no effect. This could be changed (and it would be rather new). For Example: If the player uses a crazed mask (like a horse-mask), the enemies could call the player's character 'insane - e. g. "What the hell? Look the mask! He is insane!" If the player uses some harmless looking clothes the character of the player could be called "sunnyboy/-girl", if he uses evil looking clothes, the enemies could call the figure "evil", "dark" or even "satanistic" ... or something like that
Also different playing styles could effect the reactions. If a player 'collects' more stealth kills, the enemies will call the player's character "ghost" or similar; ... and be more scared of snipers. This also could mean, they place more own snipers to defend their base. If the player uses more missile launchers, they will install anti-missilie systems (if aviable in the game // depends on topic and location) or use more armor. (And so on ...)
These are maybe two similar ideas: 1st - skins could have an effect to the comments from the enemies and NPCs (there could be a few general ones - not for each skin of course; e. g. all Cowboy-Style clothes could create the same reaction, all crazed ones, too ... and so on ...). The 2nd - the enemies in generall try to (comment and) counter the players playstile.
(P. S. this isn't a froum or topic about politics and 'saving the world', it is about thinking (/brainstorming), sharing and discussing ideas for new Far Cry games - at least I understood it that way. For Far Cry 6; but with looking on the level of it's develpoement, - maybe other following titles, too. GameGuru2018 has a lot of good (raw-)ideas, I just wonder why you react to a post, that isn't useful from your point of view.It only creates much more posts that are not useful from even more different points of view.
Check off and move on ...

Just got a new idea, it could be more useful for a Spin-Off; but ... see it as a module:
I was just thinking about Far Cry Primal and the Far Cry Instincts series (which I never liked nor I fully played). I realy like the fact in Primal that you can tame the "beasts". It realy makes the (military) balance in the valley (Oros) tipping.
Also the wild/animalic aspect is in this act - simultaneously it has something to do with civilisation.
The first part of it could be pushed and used into modern times (or similar), too; mostly by using the fact, that Far Cry was always very near to: visions ,/ drug trips ,/ surreal worlds ... and so on.
Specific it could be like this:
The protagonist in the possible Far Cry game has nightmares. This could be triggered by using a bed - similar to Far Cry 2 or Far Cry 4. These nightmares are a seperate open world map. Maybe some kind of wilderness; dark, maybe mixed with ... well nightmare-like things.
A very dangerous place, if the player get's killed on this map, the protagonist wakes up screaming in the bed. It was a dream after all.
Hunted by nightmares (shown as 'real "bests"' on this seperate nightmare-map) the player stays weak "in both worlds".
But during the main story of the game, the protagnonist learns how to handle his situation, his fears and nightmares. Maybe he got help by a shaman ... or whatever fits into the story/region of the game.
This gives the protagonist new abilities to "tame" his nightmares on the separate nightmare-map; plus the ability to explore it more ... without dying there to fast ... and waking up screaming again.
Each "tamed" "nightmare" (beast) in the dreams of the protagonist gives the player the possiblity to evolve some special skills/abilities with special skill points. ... you know ... more animalic abilities. ... ... some members of the christian Church would call an exorcist
There could be things like: Camo, takedowns from distance, climbing skills, ... whatever.
--> Tame a nightmare snake to become expert of poisons; Tame a nightmare wolf and the protagonist becomes a master hunter, a bear gives strength, a gigant bat the possibility to "see" in absolute dark places or in the night ... and so on and so on ...
I don't have to specific ideas here for this details.
The idea is to mix the "dream world" of the protagonist with his evolution in the "real" world. Could be very cool, ... also it could be balanced in how much the player needs to unlock in the dream/nightmare world: Could be totally optional, but also used as part of the main story of a game.
Plus the fact, that the devs have the possibility to create a map that could ... and should be: very creative is given here.
(I realy like Ubisoft's creative work esp. the "creative-"maps/landscapes, like Shangri La [Far Cry 4], the 4 maps in the different parts of the Egyptian afterlife [Assassin's Creed Origins (Curse of the pharaoh DLC)] or the Atlantis DLC maps of Assassin's Creed Odyssey. To bad there was no "Bliss-Map" in Far Cry 5. In this idea could be a chance for Ubisoft to prove their talent again.
If someone would ask me personally: Which is your favorite map? I would says "well, thats hard, the mix makes the cake". But also ... I think, I would say: Aten of Assassin's Creed Origins. (... I am realy happy, that the artificial sun doesn't dies out after completing the objectives.) But Elysion and the Underworld and of course Atlantis from Assassin's Creed Odyssey are very, very close behind in my personal ranking. ... ... well, Far Cry still lags a bit in this category ... time to change it?!)
