British WWII Revolver (Dont know the name.)
Ah you mean Webley MkIV .38 revolver.

Well i hope there are only real weapons in the game and that can be found in real life in that area. Like AK 47, uzi, Mosin-Nagant, M16-a1, RPD, RPG-7v, mabe some chineese Chicon weapons,
and some high caliber hunting rifles.

And yes a flamethrower finnaly it is a weapon
that you can find in real life in that area.
Mostly farmers use em these days for burning forrests and bushes to create farmland

Not as in GTA on the strees in a city thats fake.

Not that i hate GTA, i like GTA i played em all.

what i think would be cool to have in far cry 2 are more traps, like pitfalls and falling logs and wild animals like tigers or lions or whatever that spawn in certain types of forest or objects, cus i think that'd be cool. I'd also like to see more tribal wepons, the blowpipe in the last 1 was cool but things like spears and venom spitting snake wrapped round your arm would really be awsome.
viechles i'd like to see would be safari buggies and elephants or summit like that, also there should be gadgets for the mercs like nightvision goggles and high tech traps like tripwires and electric cages or taser guns etc, also custom wepons would be good kinda like a character setup but with guns.
but what i would really like to see is more predator powers so that they are even more awsome and the mercs would have a good excuse to use those gadgets i mentioned earlier, powers i would suggest are things like temporary invisiblity and being able to cling to ceilings or walls, to make the predators look more like horror movie creatures.
also i suggest adding more abilities to the game to improve stealth and cinematics, such as clinging from cliffs before you fall to your death and getting caught in trees if u bail out of a glider and terrain dammage like blowing up walls with C4 and digging through the dirt with your bear hands to try and crawl under a fence, i think that would make the game cooler and more fun because lets face it shooting someone jumpin up boxes isn't as fun as sniping them off cliffs as they are hanging by their fingertips.

Real weapons, i would like that too. With burst mode and single-shot mode. And the gunsounds have to be

in farcry 2 it would be cool if we had new wepons like whips silenced deagles bow and arrows. i would like it if there was vehicles such as helecoptersyou can drive and moterbikes and airoplanes like a hydra

Bombardier ATV (best 4 wheel ATV made), Honda CRF450X (winner Baja 1000 motorcycle class), base jumping chute, and elephants for travel in dense jungles.

Barrett M82A1 sniper rifle with optional silencer and all available rounds. Browning M2HB with optional scope for sniping and all available rounds including the "SLAP" (sabot light armor penetrator) cartridge.

All of the above would of course be special use equipment. The M82A1 would be driven near location and carried short distances and the M2HB mounted.

BTW, I agree that more primitive and silent weapons would add a nice change of pace and dynamic range of playing styles. It would be cool if you could hire guides in impoverished rural areas that use their own hand made blowguns, spears, bows and knives.

With the typical heavy fire power of Far Cry, air assaults, and the rather intimidating wildlife of Africa, you would no doubt need the big stuff though.

"and elephants for travelling through the jungle"

That's a great idea, or even just camels. The only thing is, it takes really good programming and animation to make 'driveable' animals look good and behave well in a game.

Well as far as I know they use camels more in very sandy desert areas like the Sahara, Afghanistan, etc, due to their well equiped huge feet rather than in the savanna, which is grassy.

I have been on a forum site that has a detailed interview with the developer and screenshots to go with. He spoke of mostly the savanna and jungle as the settings.

Funny how I was thinking the motorcycle would be the hard one to animate, but I suppose you're right about the elephant too.

I started out liking the M82A1 the most out of the above suggestions, but after reading lots more about the Honda CFR450X and watching some videos of it in action, I fell in love with it and now want to ride one. It's THE ultimate offroad bike.

Then again, it would be quite a diversion to sit atop a huge elephant riding through the dense jungle, machete in hand, occaisionally having to slice the head off an attacking Python hanging from the trees.

I think they'll probably have a bit of Saharaesque sandy desert in the game too. I read that article too, where he says there'll be rivers surrounded by jungle, light forest, savannah, grasslands, etc then eventually desert.

Oh yeah, riding a dirtbike across the savannah with a bunch of African militants in the back of an old ute/pickup chasing after you with AKs would be awesome.

The potential for riding pretty much anywhere you want with a dirt bike would lend well to the sandbox gameplay too. It would also make possible all sorts of trick jumps.

I got the impression sandy areas would be less common than the other types of terrain, but it would round out the variety nicely. I'm sure there will be at least some stretches of dunes in between the faction camps. Personally I would welcome dunes, an occaisional oasis, dry lake beds, crocks sneak attacking wildebests at the water holes, etc.

Come to think of it camel travel in some situations would be faster than walking without being noisy and kicking up visable dust like the vehicles do. There would have to be a considerable amount of dunes to utilize it for stealth though. Playing on dunes with a buggy and/or dirt bike would be fun too.

AA12 - Maybe

M4 - Already in.

spaz - I don't know of a gun called "spaz" are you talking about the SPAS series of shotguns?

mark 23 - Military weapon, not suitable for an African enviornment.

AUG - Military weapon, not suitable for an African enviornment.

Barret 50. BMG - Military weapon, not suitable for an African enviornment.

There absolutely has to be a motorbike in this game, and by the looks of the concept art there may be. That and a good ol' rugged Kalash and I'm set.

I've yet to read about or see any screenshots of such news. Do you have any links of the concept art that can verify this?

TW, sure he got many of those weapon designations wrong but since when should a gun be excluded from a game like Far Cry just because it's seen military action?

Jack is not only ex special forces, he is now in an environment with not just mercs but rival factions. Of course they're going to have military weapons.

Africa is the ideal place for this sequel because it DOES fit a character with a military background. There have been feuding tribes at war with one another there for years using military surplus weapons bought on the black market by drug lords and corrupt leaders.

Personally I think the location and storyline have great potential for offering both a safari type feel and all out war. That includes access to plenty of military grade weapons.

Here's one concept pic showing the bike.
http://kotaku.com/photogallery/farcry2/2223088

There are other images (more than the 16 that most sites know about), but I can't find them at the moment.

PS. Why aren't military weapons allowed in Africa? I'm sure there will be British or American or German forces in the game, if by military you mean Western military. Africa has a military too.

Motorcycles would rock...and speaking of rocks, can't they make the rocks cause damage. That would be awsome.
In multi-player: How would you like to have a scrim with rocks only, hehehehe. THAT would be funny! Provided we get Assault, TDM or FFA.

Veg

Thanks for that pic bongo. The comments about military weapons was a response to the above poster whom implied they would be out of place in the game. Of course there will be mil weaps.

Hows about a good gun like a Bullpup (from CS) with that i go so trigger happy like OOOOOOHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

they have to nring back the 50 cal sniper rifle for sure. they also have to introduces the ak 47 because it goes with the african eviroment. they should also bring in the 36k and give it a sand camo skin. they need to bring in a sand buggy too.

Genius.

Anyway, I just hope all the weapon models are high-poly and the skins are top-notch, high res and unique. No stock-looking, bland skins that've been shoved in FPS'es for years. (Even Far Cry easily falls into that category.)

be real... africa is all about AK and its modifications (for eg: http://www.zastava-arms.co.yu/images/vojni/sniper/m91_2.jpg) because its cheap and very available in that area for millions of reasons... they said that crysis is going to be high tech and fc2 is going to be 100% different game so it is obvious that not much imaginary or expensive weapons are going to be seen in fc2.
