Post by: Darkage on May 20, 2004, 04:01:59 pm
FarCry kicks allot of ass!

Great guns/graphics/sound etc

It was wel worth the 40 eruo's:D

I played the demo...I was entertained by the graphics but that was about it.  Its moderately cool and the AI is nice but eh...just doesn't seem to be captivating.

The game itself is way better than the demo's they released. Best game for me since Halo really.

when i went it was a choice between far cry and UT 2004, cuz I didn't have enough money for both. So it shouldn't be too hard to think what i picked (I got UT)

I'd like to try, but alas, although my vid card is on steroids, my PC is < Arnold Schwarznegger voice > still a puny-man. < / >

Indeed, one of the first games to REALLY need a full DX9 capable card. I tried it using my old GF4 and it was disturbingly slow - then after upgrading to a Radeon 9800 and it just came to life.. smooth and stunning.

Can't wait to get the money for the full game.

A two-grand upgrade? That's gonna be one hell of a PC when it comes out the other end. :p

only a new mobo, cpu, a gig of ram, and this (http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/index.php?redir=http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_product_info.php?code=VI-SAX800PRO256)

hopefully, by the time i get the money to buy it, i'll have gone down in price by then ;)
i like setting my purchasing goals a little higher, it gives me plenty of overhead for those "emergency" purchases, that and well.. around that time, a few good games will be released.:p

:wtf:

Try it on a

Duron 600 (600Mhz)
128Mb DDR ram (one stick) (266Mhz)
and a r9600xt (256M) (formerly a GF2MX PCI)

If it weren't for the new vid card, I wouldn't even be able to play stock FS.

your vidcard is a better model than my own, that's what's prolly lending much to your ability to play it.. also.. 128mb?.. i'm surprised it ran at all.

Bleh... hated Far Cry. Gameplay was kind of repetitive and the story was pathetic.
