New trailer just came out showing the map making capabilities. This is the best part of the game so far that I have seen. Lots of endless possibilites. Hopefully we can bring these maps online. Bringing maps online in Timesplitters 3 didnt work well at all.
Far Cry: Instints map making trailer
 
I still reckon Far Cry on PC is better. Plus I can run Far Cry in HDR on my PC while playing it online.
 
Far Cry Instincts came out today and should be available in stores tomorrow. I prepaid and I am picking it up right after work tomorrow from EB games. Mabey I will see some of you on tomorrow. I will probably spend a lot of time building my own maps. :sly:

Anything on PC is better, if you're willing to pay the $$$ for a PC that can run all the latest games.

I do remember seeing it when it was released for PC, Ive been waiting for it on Xbox ever since, the graphics look amazing.
 
I forgot that if you pre-ordered Far Cry Instincts you get Rainbow Six 3 for free. :)
This offer is still available.
 
DRIFT GOD
what time will you be on ???

lol im making a HUMMER test track 👍

Bad ass bro! Im jealous. I still have to wait about 2 or 3 more hours depending on when I leave. I am going to make GTP island. :lol:
Later I might even make "Franks and beans island" :lol: Put a bunch of trees on the beans. "How did you get the beans above the frank??!! :lol:
I can see this game comsuming a lot of my time with the design options.
 
the graphix are absolutly beutiful, you can swim under water and there are fish in the water, you can sneek up on people and stab them in the neck. the map editor is just overwhelming, you will be shocked at how huge this is !!!
 
here is a map i started to show you guys how huge this is, that thing in the circle is a full size HUMMER !!!



this is the HUMMER in that circle !!!



this is the HUMMER after i jumped it off the cliff into the water :D


 
i have only played single player sofar and there are some cool features, you can set traps with tree branches, you can hold 2 weapons (i had 2 pistols) and you can crawl under huts and roll on your back so you can shoot people from cracks in the floor :D
 
Looking good DG. After you progress thru the game you can set proxitimy mines and other explosive traps. :)
Here is a quick 2 minute version of GTP island. yes you are right the maps can be huge! You can even set the elevation so high in the air you will get a nose bleed!
Imagine the air you could get if you set up the right hills. :dopey:
The map maker is unbelievable so far. You can truly do anything you want with it!!
225m is the highest point which is just insane! Fun with the hand glider though.
 
Be right there. Just having soo much fun with the map editor. I found a way to get alll the way to the top of that hill!! LADDERS!
 
This is pretty much the final version. I am just amazed with the map maker abilities!!! Time to bring this map online and try it out!!
 
Some awful quality pics of my map in progress. Hopefully it doesnt lag bad on Live, I was experiencing that with some of CB's maps last night, but the ones that are in the game seemed to work fine.



The map is very sniper friendly, and you have to watch your ass too because at any given "sniper point" you can see or be seen from at least 3 other ideal sniper points. There are still alot of trees to be added to the bald areas so there is plenty of cover, as well as places to set traps or some close range combat.

This game is worth every penny even if you don't have Live, you can still make your own maps for offline.
 
Looks like fun. I will be on tonight again to try out your map and probbly a few that DG has made by now. The first map I made didnt lag but the Spike mOuntain did once we had 16 people in there. That was a huge map so mabe I can tone it down a bit. I still had a great time last night.
Actually I will be on this game a lot and my GF might be joining us after I show her this game tonight and tomorrow.
 
I got a question for ya...when you initially publish your map, when you make changes to it does it automatically update or do you have to re-publish it with the same name? Mine should be fun now as it, it would be nice to try and see if it lags bad now or not, I dont want to add too much to it you know? No name for it yet, currently its GVAN1
