    How long is a piece of string ?



    Any specific improvements - will be announced I'm assuming closer to release..


    However - the sheer power of the newer consoles, should make it look and perform better than the old ones - that's common sense

    Lol, well that depends. but not as close as interesting as the question why does Holland never win the World cup ? Again so close this time yet again so far.

    Since it's not in the framerate I thought it would be something else that I missed when you said it performs better on next gen.

    I hope ubisoft really exploited all the power of new gen consoles....


    Ubisoft has announced its plans for San Diego Comic-Con, confirming panels for two of its most highly anticipated games: Far Cry 4 and Assassin's Creed Unity.

    The Far Cry 4 panel will be held on Thursday, July 24 and take attendees behind the scenes "to learn about what went into building Far Cry 4's open-world Kyrat for the next generation." Ubisoft briefly explained that the team traveled to Nepal with VICE to draw inspiration and create authentic Kyrati characters and environments to the region. The hour-long panel will begin at 3:15pm

    Thanks Shade. It's only 4 months untill release so can't be that long of a wait.

    Really hope that the focus is not just on single player this time, Far Cry deserves a killer MP as well.

    Can you tell if it will be available for direct download from the Marketplace ?

    Ubisoft promises Far Cry 4 on PS4, Xbox One is equal to high-end PC

    Far Cry 4 Will look better on next gen consoles than GTA 5....

    Checkout the destiny ps3 vs ps4 video, it may give you some idea of the kind of Differences you will see on fc4. there are Differences, but they are not ground breaking.

    I actually like the look of the PS3 screen better - just had a quick look at different stages and it appears to have a lot more colour, the PS4 one is mostly fog ' haze.
    Unsure what they have done but they certainly don't appear to have pushed the PS4 version at all, looks like a sloppy conversion - they should really push the new machines IMO because then it would make me want to upgrade if the PS3 / 360 versions looked a lot worse visually.

    The PS4 / XB1 should handle lots more on screen, should look a lot better and should have a better frame rate.
    I would think the best route would be to create on PC at max they can do then downgrade to PS4 and XB1 with the best they can give then downgrade further to PS3 / 360 and give that platform the best they can do.

    If many more games are like this then these new consoles will not last long, already there are very few exclusives and from the ones available I do not know of any worth bragging about - too many remade games - I am hoping to upgrade later this year and was hoping Far Cry 4 would look a million times better and allow for more items in the editor and much more stuff on screen, if it's a half arsed conversion then I will stick with the console I have and maybe wait out another year.

    Destiny PS4 from that vid does nothing for me whatsoever, I hope I am wrong - what do others think ?

    Edit
    Looking at the FC4 E3 Vid I can't believe that PS3 and 360 will throw graphics like that out so it will be interesting to see how they differ - still FC3 looked good on PS3 / 360 although the water was very different compared to the PC Version.

    That is exactly how I feel - the same as what he says in that article linked above.

    My brother in law has a PS4 and I have seen a few games on it, mainly Killzone / Battlefield & Watch Dogs - all look to be good games but none blew me away on the graphical side & 2 of those games are available on the older consoles.

    I could go out and pick up an XB1 or PS4 tomorrow if needed (the wife would be ok with that) but I honestly don't know what I would play on it, so I will just sit back and wait - Far Cry 4 could be the game that moves me into the newer console crowd but it we are capped stupidly when placing items in the editor as with FC3 and seeing the PC version have no limitations now that would hurt so I might possibly wait for some confirmation on next gen goodies where FC4 is concerned.
