    I hope we'll see FFT based (CryENGINE2 Method for rendering water waves, also supported by CryENGINE3), or tessellated water (CryENGINE3 DirectX 11 PC) this time around, not as flat as the E3 trailer's water. (Not saying the E3 trailer water is bad, it had pretty amazing reflections, and the quality. It just looked a bit too flat.) And there's a high chance for a graphics demo, as they've announced they have GI implemented in Far Cry 3.

    I am sure that if you purchase Edge Magazine on the 15th of February (the day before the demo goes live)
    That will possibly give you the info a day early, My guess is that they will have viewed the video and broken it down into a mini preview with info and pictures for their magazine.

    Booooom there goes sales of edge through the roof

    I'm looking forward to just seeing something new

    I would be happy with just a slow sweeping flyby, like the menu intro on FC1 - showing off some area of he map and the detail in it

    They don't show me anything, since they know I can't help myself

    haha! I know if I was developing something, I would let everyone know all the details, even when it is unfinished. A perfect example of that is in Far Cry 2.
    So Shade, do you think you are going to be play Far Cry 3?

    I think it's ok to know something, but I prefer that there are a few surprises in the run up to release..

    I hate knowing almost everything, since then it's almost like I have already played the game..


    I loved FC1 so I think I will really enjoy FC3 - from what I have seen...


    Normally, I get a chance to play titles a few months before release, so I know what to expect etc, so this is one title I'm looking forward to previewing, when or if the chance arises

    Just ask the development team for official mod tools, man. It'd be awesome to have official, properly working tools this time around.
    EDIT: Like in Far Cry 1.
