I dont know what everyone else thinks, but i have been absolutely blown away by the sheer gaming fun i have experienced while playing this amazing game. I dont think a demo has ever been so good...
This game has it all, the landscapes, traditional but fun storyline, amazing graphics, realistic A.I., good selection of guns to blow away the merc's.
I know this is only a demo of whats to come but i think this game has a lot of potential, and if a few things are polished here and there then look out half life 2 because theres competition...especially seeing as far cry is apparently going to come out on schedule!!! (according to pc gamer..the best magazine!!) unlike half life 2 and halo 2's delays. I am not sure if you ubisoft programmers give a toss about what i think, because i am only one person. but if there is any chance of anything being done, the following list of things i found could be better (i could say this about any game but i think this game is closer to perfection than ever before, so it is worth mentioning)
- Either more realistic knifing effects or you can see the blade cuts on the bodies.
- Choppers can be shot down (because if everything else is so realistic why shouldnt it be when u fire a rocket at a chopper it doesnt destroy it)
- When moving through the bushes/grass the character uses his hand to move grass or small leafs/branches out of the way (it has to be done, because if they programmed the game so he can swim, then why not be able to move the environment as well).
Last but not least is the VPU error that most people with high spec grahics cards like myself/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-very-happy.gif will have found,
DO NOT STRESS! it will sorted in the final version i am sure. Just play the demo for now on default video settings, although i have noticed you change the advanced settings and it will NOT crash.
Thanks a lot for reading this, and i hope you take my opinions into consideration...
Anyone feel free to post ideas and suggestions, because i am sure there are things i have forgot to mention.

I am also Blown away with the Graphics and everything.

In the full version i would hope that all the bugs will be fixed. And also hope that the game will run alot smoother with ATI cards.

-- Either more realistic knifing effects or you can see the blade cuts on the bodies.

You must be running with low detail or something coz stabbing causes long wounds.. Also when knifing wood it leaves a cut on the surface.

-- Choppers can be shot down (because if everything else is so realistic why shouldnt it be when u fire a rocket at a chopper it doesnt destroy it)

You can shoot choppers down! In the demo you can't shot them so that you wouldn't be able to explore the whole island (the rest of the island is quite barren coz it's not detailed at all).

-- When moving through the bushes/grass the character uses his hand to move grass or small leafs/branches out of the way (it has to be done, because if they programmed the game so he can swim, then why not be able to move the environment as well).

I think in some preview they said that when driven over with a vehicle, the grass would cut down. But in the demo it doesn't so.. time will tell..

- I want more freedom. Demo was quite linear. Only about 3 ways to get on the island from the water.

- More life feeling to underwater. Underwater quests would be cool. More animals, birds and other things. I know it requires more from hardware but those would be good reason to buy faster hardware.

- Maybe dynamic wind effects and other natural things mentioned in other threads.

- Water interaction. Like in Morrowind. Waves, we need waves. Not 2D-waves but 3D

- More other graphics effects. You can't put all to demo so I hope that they are in full version.

- Player controlling needs tweaking.

- Maybe climbing on the mountain would be good. This would be much slower of course. And maybe risky in some places.

- More detailed textures.

- Lots of different vehicles.

-In multiplayer, it would be good if player can't carry 999 rockets in backpack and other that kind of stuff. So ammo amounts should be more reasonable =)

And all that stuff I have seen in official screenshots 8)

i'd like to see the flash bangs make an actual flash

right now if they explode and you are close you will be blinded, however if youstand a distance back and try to see them explode, they don't, no light source at all. very strange

i'd also like to see a bit less scope wobble for the snipe

-Mountain climbing would sure be cool. Maybe not steep climbing, but at least some hillsides with narrow trails, and make it so you have to maybe jump or crawl under obstacles. Anything that's exiting and risky.

-More controllable vehicles, and bigger plains to drive them on. Maybe some jumping over rivers or an enemy convoy.

-More sneaking and eaves-dropping. If you manage to do this successfully, you would get to know of secret routes or weaknesses in the enemies' defenses. This would provide a cool new way to get to places for more sneaky players.

-Carchases. Scenes where you have to escape from an enemy camp or get through enemy lines in a hurry.

-Dangerous animals like sharks or gorillas. /i/smilies/16x16_smiley-happy.gif

-Realistic methods of surviving like making campfires, etc.

-Anything else that's cool. /i/smilies/16x16_smiley-tongue.gif

--dynamic lighting that you can turn off and on or shoot out

--land mines

--be able to climb ropes, like throw a grappling hook and climb up the steep cliff

--more city environments

--traps that are controlled by physics like large boulders or logs rolling down the hill or pits

--to be able to pickup small objects like throw crates and barrels

-- change crosshairs and color, also change the binoc green player hightlight to like red or cyan something brighter

-- more environment interaction

let's bring out some real physics

I think this game is in need of another demo. I'm still not convinced that this is the game. In fact, if it were between BF1942 and this game, I'd go BF1942 because BF1942 featued vehicles and 30 - 45min of gameplay while this featured boats that were almost useless unless you wanted to go to another beach :| and about 5 - 10min of gameplay if you played on easy and I don't know, 7 - 12 min if you played on hard?

Seems like most people want climbable mountain cliffs, realistic physics and vehicles. /i/smilies/16x16_smiley-happy.gif

Hey! We have Isla Sorna here for Christ's sakes, let's add some dinosaurs running around! lol

While driving the jeep through the jungle I couldn't help not thinking about a T-Rex running after me. Muaaahaaarrr!

Maybe I'll make an Isla Sorna map when I get the editor!
