Already Discussed.
(Q) Will there be an official gametype, maybe similar to Predator mode?
(A) Predator was a great mode and we all enjoyed playing it, but ultimately it didn't fit within the gritty realism of Far cry 3.
As for The Predator Pack – Four exclusive rare predators and a multiplayer bow.
I think the 4 predators are actually animals in the single player game - you get extra animals.

[note that this mode was on far cry instincts predator]
"In addition to the classic multiplayer modes, Ubisoft has introduced a completely unique Predator gametype, that pits several co-op Mercenary players against a single Feral player. The predator will have the chance to take on multiple enemies. Also, for this special mode, the Feral Speed leap manoeuvre has been enhanced for multiplayer and some additional ambience has been added to the mode to put the Mercenary players in the position of feeling stalked for the whole duration of play."

As dapper said the Predator character was a mutated person from experiments in Dr Krieger's (http://farcry.wikia.com/wiki/Dr._Krieger) lab.
The Predator had feral vision and smell which allowed you to see them like a modern day heat source source / detector.

You could do huge jumps and your speed was greatly increased, plus you had the feral attack which is demonstrated above.
Players would have this appearance to a predator when moving which made them super easy to find on dark and really foggy maps.

The idea of the game was for the Mercs to power up a generator and for the Predator's to stop them.
When powering up the generator the time ticks down and stops when you either move away from the area or are killed while powering up - There are also 2 generator lights that work when the generator is in action - this also alerts the predators.
Once a player is killed he / she waits out the remainder of the game and can scroll through other players view points in 3rd person perspective - However if a predator is killed it will re-spawn players and there is also a reinforcement station that takes a short length of time to activate - this will also re-spawn one player back to life.
A predator will instantly re-spawn once killed - there is also a weapon called the blow dart which will only work in predator mode for multiplayer - one direct hit will take the predator out.
The match ends if either all mercenaries are killed, the mercs power up the generator or the time runs out.

I think one of the most challenging things to do for many mappers, was create a map that worked well in this mode.
Considering that the Predator could jump higher, and run faster than the Mercs at all times...:)
The only one of my maps I ever felt worked well/balanced in this mode was 'Nocturnal Beast' which is why I called it that.
It seemed to compliment the map, and gameplay...as well as being a night map.
The Predators would be outside of the mountains, and jump into the map...this scared the heck out of you when one would drop down through the trees, as you heard the heartbeat increase...lol
Good times

I always thought you made that map in a tribute to the Nocturnal Beast himself - SickSix6

Ohh yeah, good times indeed! loved that mode! it was something apart from VS multiplayer to co-op that you can hang out with your freands and kill or be killed. Really missed those days for that they were the GOLDEN days for Far Cry Instincts players. RIP FCI :(.

Has anyone cared to notice that Ubisoft has used the "Far Cry" Title and fan base as a jumping board to drive its newly revised "Far Cry 2" and "Far Cry 3" games down its fans throat's? As a huge fan of "Far Cry Predator" I bought "Far Cry 2" expecting a better improved "Far Cry Predator" game, with better map making features and a crisper game play, but instead i got a completely different game. Ubisoft had a very awesome original game unlike any other FPS game i have ever played and they turned it into CoD on an island, stripping it of its intensity, creativity, and flexibility. The original "Far Cry predator" games delivered joy and excitement on a level I have never received from any other game. They removed almost everything that made the game unique and I'm heart broken cause of it. Now I'm not saying "FC3" is going to be a pile of ****, cause i do appreciate their hard work, but what i don't appreciate is the fact that they decided to be sneaky and sell a completely different game with the "Far Cry" name. This simply tells me that Ubisoft has no respect for its fan base and is only interested in its fans money. If they would have named the game something else and not try to target Far Cry fans with a game that is NOT "Far Cry" then i would not be upset at all... but that's not the case.

In Ubisoft's defense, the first Far Cry (pc game- made by Crytek) was less arcade-y than FCIP. I understand where you're coming from, but FC3 seems to look the most similar to where the series originated from. Mind you, the mutants are gone and there's no crazy scientists, but as far as a 'beautiful hell', this is probably as close as it will get.

I am hoping that the 4th Game Mode is something special and crazy at the same time when they announce what it is.
As Viragoxv535 said there is that Crazy Dr Earnhardt with his potions and mushrooms, The whole Insanity Theme and then those Black Demons and the Psyche Gas.
I know they said no Predator mode which is fine but with no DM or CTF mode I am hoping we get something crazy addictive and fun.
http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac6/MrTibarata/Far%20Cry%203%20Images/barreldrop4.jpg
Those Demons only come into play when a Barrel of Psyche Gas is dropped using Team Support, I wonder if this 4th Game Mode will be objective based or something special where the player's could have been exposed to radioactive barrels and view the opposition as Demons - maybe a 4 man team against 12 others (I am just speculating now)
Less then 3 months until release - What is the 4th game mode about dammit:eek:

I hope it's more advanced then a CTF mode. Would also mean a lot if they increased the number of players and time for the fourth game mode, even with a small increment.
