    Does anyone know how co-op will operate in this?

    Just added this to my preorder list. Had a £10 promo voucher for Amazon, so at just short of £33 it seemed rude not to.

    I believe it's basically drop in / drop out across the whole play area, but you can't do main story missions (side missions are fine).

    Please note that using C4 to weaponise Honey Badgers is not recommended.

    Do you know if that includes taking over outposts? Could be good fun.

    I just don't want it to be a carbon copy of far cry 3. I loved 3 just don't want this to be same game with just a different setting

    The Games Cabin, whoever the hell they are, gave it an 8.4, may, may not have actually played, it, sound about 14 and are totally down with the gay folk.
    Some stutters this gen, quite a lot last ten supposedly.

    You know they've pretty much said that that's what it is, yeah?

    I'm more than happy with more of the same. It's going to look sex on my PS4.

    Yep I've heard it is far cry 3.5 as well. I played the buggy version at euro gamer expo and so im assuming it will be. Not a major problem with that but hopefully something a bit different. Esp as it out the same day as GTA 5 remake

    While I agree, I think the addition of co-op is going to shake up the gameplay loop significantly. Admittedly no consolation if you're going SP only.

    Even so, I think it'll be FC3 refined. Trim the fat, and then staple on all new Ubi-flavoured fat to replace it. Get ready for ICONGASM!

    I'm just worried about how it'll run on the PS4. Ubisoft aren't exactly reliable in that department, and I'm definitely not in the mood for another "30fps, with drops below 25 when the action gets intense" shooter.

    So, waiting until both the reviews and the DF articles before buying.

    The 360 version of FC3 wasn't exactly smooth, but it was easily playable enough. Admittedly the PC version pissed all over it in a hundred ways.

    The visual gap should be closer this time, even if the framerate is ropey, so I've made my peace with the PS4 version for co-op shenanigans. Might double-dip on the PC version (like I did with FC3) if it warrants it.

    Picked this up from my local games store last night and should be starting it once I'm home in an hour or so, so will post my impressions.

    I'm quite happy with a lovely looking re-skin in all honesty. It looks to be a little bit more than that though.

    It's just a question of when ShopTo dispatch.

    They must have forgotten to put the map icons in.

    Just you Mr Duff.

    6/10 at best. It looks like an add-on for FC3.
