!!! Map editors unite !!! | Forums

[theBreadSultan]

I simply never played those types of maps again because there were plenty of maps with vehicles that were 'Freak'in Fun' and never felt boring or overly large. Heck, look at ALL the non-vehicle maps that were boring and did not promote Teamplay, what about those, lol. More Options = Better !

If the devs feel that vehicles disrupt 'Teamplay', why not have a category for Custom Maps with Vehicles? Then anyone that agrees with Thier OPPINION can simply avoid that category! If multiplay on custom maps aren't 'Ranked' matches, then why restrict or omit any items in the first place? They have Bronze, Silver, & Gold Map Archives... well heck then; an OPEN FORMAT can be Platinum then (lol, just an example) ! Then let the players decide what they wanna play on! Ubi... choose Creative Options over Censorship! Please
This game has already been shelved by my 50+ member clan that were HUGE fans and Long-time players of FarCry 2 (how sad is that?). We had Such GOOD Times with the custom maps too! I hope my 60$ ultimately goes towards what I thought I was purchasing. Your ticking off your best most loyal FarCry Fans Ubi !!!

Yea there were some pretty cool maps with vehicles in them, especially boats. boats were cool, as they were a platform that someone else could fight from, So that really encourages teamplay - as a 1 man boat is nothing but a slow moving target, boat with 2 gunners on it on the other hand :-)

I just try to look on the positives of situations you know.
And for better or worse, the pony gigantor maps will be gone - and not missed,
unfortunately the good maps also will be gone.

and yea. no escape maps, no infinite time arena TDM matches (you just know that when you join a random match and the kill count is already 200+ to each team that you're gonna have a good time)

I've not really played on the user created maps yet, as I have not really had too much time for MP (too busy mapping)
I would say that the auto occlusion thing can really add an extra dimension of thought required tho.

EVERYTHING HAS DIFFERENT DRAW DISTANCES!!!

and the only way to know is to plonk it down, then move away from it, count the grids. and then remember lol. Fine if your a savant, but for us mortals it can get a little fiddly

having said that, there is no excuse for having assets pop into the screen, because you should be aware of draw distances when you make your map.
(you're placing more than 3 trees and a couple of empty huts rite?)
Must admit that i was a bit surprised to catch the official Ubi maps with scotty-beam-in moments.

Apart from the vehicles, I will miss the grenade launcher turret the most.
I felt that added the most to the immersion factor - when someone would be randomly bombing the battle ground artillery style, you would rarely get hit by it - if ever - but it made it all a bit more exciting, and on the odd occasion when you would get a kill lobbing artillery, it was very satisfying, mostly because absolutely no skill was involved

I dunno - I'm hoping to finish my map before the end of the year so i can enter it in that competition - I have no idea how i get people to play it though.

what about getting a poll started to add in vehicles, weapons and AI to unranked multiplayer games? im sure alot of people who use the map editor want these features back in

How is the xbox community going now days? I may be reconsidering returning to FC2... FC3 "map sharing" just really killed it for me.
P.S I was on FC2 heaps over the passed few years, your name seems very familiar... 0_o
