I think they did let people play the FC3 MP at some event.Originally Posted by Insistor Go to original post
...But obviously all of that buggy stuff never came up there since it was running on a local network (Thumbs up for LAN-only internal testing, Massive! Anybody ever heard of using reliable internet protocols in addition to UDP for important messages?).
I was one of 4 people that got invited over to Malmo in Sweden to test Far Cry 3's Multiplayer and editor.Originally Posted by Insistor Go to original post
Unfortunately I had never used a mouse and keyboard before so was useless with the editor, instead I played around with the menus and chatted with the editor guys.
As for the MP we played with up to 6 people, to be honest we did not even think about the lobbies for hosting our maps, I just assumed it would be the same as FC2's although the Playlists were mentioned none of us finished a map and got to try it so we didn't see that setup or how it worked.
It was a good 3 days and we were all treated very well, the game went Gold while we were over there - we also got to play some single player (I have to say from a console gamer FC3 looked excellent on PC)
As for FC2 they also had an event in Montreal where I know Sugarm0mma went along with others - They were asked to make a race map and later tried each others out in MP.
Mr Shade is correct both times it happened approx a month before the game launched.
With Far Cry Evolution they had JayFlipz go out there and he met up with Sean Le Blanc (not sure if I got the name correct) he was the editor guy for the Far Cry Instincts games.
I am sure it is the same with Far Cry 4 (wink wink)
So once these journalists or gaming people are allowed to put vids and reviews / images up we should get a whole load of info filtering through. (thats my guess anyhow)
According to this tweet the event is over and they couldn't checkout multiplayer. https://twitter.com/docm77/status/519515354662719488
Well WTF?!Originally Posted by AW LOST SOLDIER Go to original post
With one of the attendees tweeting that it was unrestricted COOP and MP it could be that he was just not clued up and thinking that MP / COOP was the same thing, or badly advised maybe.Originally Posted by akilyoung Go to original post
Others were tweeting that they were recording vids but maybe something has prevented them from releasing info straight away, Shame about not finding anything out about MP.
I am sure Ubisoft will release a MP Video showing the modes and stuff but we want to simply know about the Hosting Options and Lobby so the sooner the better really.
