In comparison to MP, the singleplayer is pretty much working. So maybe the importance they speak of is related to fixing the most broken part of the game and not necessarily the main attraction of the game. If you include a MP portion to your game, then regardless of whether its the main focus or not, all parts of the game advertised should work.Originally Posted by Staticks Go to original post
I totally agree, the patch is useless. They're not listening to gamers at all. I don't thing the are able to change the lobbys system but they are too scared to admit that.
Tried to play FC3 yesterday... 1st try - starting-up game, go to multiplayer, gold maps, lobby, game starts FREEZE.... Ok **** happends, second try, made it to the lobby, game starts, freezes in loading screen. ok can happen, 3rd try, same as 2nd try... 20 minutus of frustratiob. Now I had it, put in my FCIP disc. multiplayer/playermatch/quick match/launch. within 1 minute in a game.
With the new info about the patch I am sure I leave FC3 what a let down......
Well I have spent most of my time playing Single Player and COOP, so the outpost resetting thing is great for SP.
I have not been in the editor for maybe 6 or 7 weeks, my opinion is that the multiplayer for me is finished - done.
I was in hope that we would get some big fix but we got a few rough edges smoothed instead.
So I guess I am a one map wonder in Far Cry 3 - made only one map and never got a proper game on it, what a waste and let down.
The map testing / spectator mode IMO is just boll0cks, I don't want to watch how my map plays (as some might like to do) And hosting a map in some Beta Test thing is like saying the map is in an incomplete stage - This just does not feel right - you are referring to other players who might want to test the maps, this is where it breaks down.
WE DON'T WANT TO TEST MAPS WE WANT TO PLAY THEM.
People wanted their own individual playlist where they can set the maps and have players enter the lobby, the players should be able to switch teams if they would like to - as this isn't happening I would say its a dead game for multiplayer - Dead On Arrival.
Could have been an amazing package but the basics that should be in every MP FPS Game were missed.
See you all around in FC4 or FCIP but for me this game is all about Single Player![]()
so what if you have finished game, and dont want to replay, wow i can clear the outposts again, big woop, id rather test my skills against humans, well ones that arnt invisible or jumpin round like bugs bunny, if this patch dont fix it, especialy the stupid f*****g load screen, im out of here, they have had enough time to sort what should be simple bugs, how many years they been doing this, you would think they would know what there doing......
and i see it affects x box to, didnt know that, im pretty sure i got told it was a ps3 only problem in the begining,, specificly my ps3
Im similar..SP games bore the hell out of me, well normally..but did enjoy the campaign in this! even if it felt a bit like a chore in places.Originally Posted by bonkersfoxhound Go to original post
I so much prefer an evolving enviroment, where rarely its never the same. Playing fellow humans with better intelligence (most the time) than programmed AI, is much more rewarding to me. But i guess ive always had that "competitive" nature about me
Your right about Xbox, well sort of in my case. Lastnite i died multiple times by invisible slayers, an "suicide" contributed to around 50% of my deaths! Im sure this is down to lag, but have never experienced these before lastnite...strange?? My mate, who was in party with me, died right next to me..an on my screen said we both suicided, but on his said we were both killed by player.
Also noticed a few times lastnite, i didnt gain xp/stats from a few games..one match was my best ever!!! I really feel for the guys who have this almost repeatedly....
Champ is right, here's your last chance to save Farcry 3...Originally Posted by FALLEN CHAMP Go to original post
Read up Ubi, this is important.
It won't take much effort, but I'm sure it's still more than you're willing to put forth...
Rename the "Beta Testing" playlist to "Player Hosted", and enable map rotation/switching in these lobbies. Even if we can't have a lobby list and choose which ones to join, this would be a huge improvement and we could all add our favourite lobby hosters anyway and join their lobby that way or request invites when they're on.
No map rotation is still the most pathetic thing I've seen in a game to date, like I've said before every other MP game in the last 20 years has allowed people to switch maps without having to kick all of the players out of the lobby and just HOPE they'll rejoin when you switch a map. Insanely stupid.
