Far Cry Isn't Far Cry without a map editor for multiplayer. Without the editor there will be no point in using the Far Cry name. Ubisoft managed to screw up in Far Cry 3 with a shotty multiplayer and a almost useless map editor with features that can't be used in multiplayer. I don't even look forward to a new Far Cry title because it is most likely going to be another disappointment.Originally Posted by classicgmr Go to original post
I've attempted to look high and low for another thread pertaining to this, but i have no had SEVERAL very nice weapon mods get lost.
a decoder will finish and ill go to retrieve it and will just sit there with the little loading icon. and no matter what i dont i cant retrieve it. when i exit to my ps3 dashboard and come back its just completely gone! and now i just had another issue where i opened up my decoders and choose decoder 1, it said i had a cd. i choose the cd for decoding, for a split second it began to decode it, but then it went right back to saying "ready to start decoding" and when i went to see if i had the cd still it was gone as well. im starting to get really tired of ubisoft (not that im not already)

I have enjoyed playing the game but I have to admit that somethings are frustrating.
There is nothing more aggravating then being in a tense situation and have the whole game
crash at that moment ( just about to clean the enemy camp out with one last guy and
Your back to the towers miles away ). This has happened to me more then 25 times.
I am now in the area of the deserted high tower and there is a camp near by that has taken me out like
15 times in trying. I have tried to use stealth or just going in blasting ( which does not work BtW ).
It has Dogs , a Tiger in a cage, several Armor Iron men walking around and no way to shut down the security alarm because it's in the middle of everything ( Can you knock it out with a rocket ? ). I was down to no guys left in the camp and a helicopter comes from no where and takes me out ???,
Any hints would help here.
Well it seems when I ask a question I solve the problem. It turns out this time I attacked at night
and took everyone out without a hitch. I have cleaned up the whole north Island.
One thing that is not happening is that at most of the captured camps has a Bulletin board with
quests. I need to do some "path of the hunter" Quests but the Bulletin boards are blank. How do
I do these???>
Hello gentlemen, I read some messages here and I must say I disagree. Needless to say Far Cry 3 was a great success for Ubisoft.
Although I played every single Far Cry, I must say I do not really feel that the game is dependent on its map editor and I don't think it should be. Map editors are side activities that should not replace a good solo experience, just like in the terrible Far Cry 2 single player mode. This license, which was not originally developed by Ubisoft (it was edited by the French company, but developed by CryTek), is now conquering a much broader audience.
The identity of this license is defined by the heavenly landscapes and the RPG-like mechanics applied to a FPS. The multiplayer mode is definitely more marginal than other famous FPS. For instance, developing the campaign in a CoD game only takes 30% of the resources, whilst multiplayer is worth 70% of the total budget for the game! Far Cry 3 may be known for its map editor, but it is definitely not the strategic point early fans think it is.
However, I understand you may consider the very limited investment in the map editor as a betrayal if you are an early fan. Yet, to me, Far Cry 3 multiplayer is a great experience.
I can report a few bugs, though, such as random suicides, breaking my kill streaks, and a weak matchmaking
I love Far cry 3... i found the single player really interesting and fun to play but was slightly disappointed at its length (or maybe it was more me playing it too fast?!) anyway i love it and have started to play it again.
The multiplayer is also a part of the game i love. I know some people hate that its like a COD game, but personally i think having COD in a jungle sounds like a great idea, i found the online part great to get into and have enjoyed playing it.
However, i agree with many players opinions about the bugs running in the servers. Often i end up committing suicide for no apparent reason, it often lags and i hate that the match i'll play loses a host and simply puts me back on the main menu.
I love the multiplayer but realise the bugs running through the servers are making it unpopular with other players. While i realise with the announcement of far cry 4 there'll be less attention give to FC3, i hope that Ubisoft make the multiplayer in FC4 like FC3, just like a COD game, but without those annoying bugs.
Weak matchmaking, is not a bug. Its the bread and butter of a multiplayer experience. Did you even finish an entire match without the game crashing?Originally Posted by D.Skywalker Go to original post
Far Cry without an editor would almost be as bad as StarCraft without one. And FC3s editor/MP was torture.
