Where'd YOU set the NEXT Far Cry?

[Migel]

So after FC Primal came out, I speculated That the next Far Cry was gonna be an Old Western adventure. I feel like I got that somewhat right... Rural America. Another guess I had was a Vietnam Themed Far Cry, but it seems like they really just had that as an afterthought.

What do you think, and what would you like the next Far Cry game to be like?

I'd still want to see a 1850s - 1910s Western theme, but I can't help but feel it's unlikely for them to pump out two FCs of similar setting back-to-back.

If I had to bet, I'd say they'll go back to Africa. Far Cry 2 has been brought up a lot when talking about FC5, and they might want to use that inspiration to do a modern take on a currently trending idea.

I would still love to see a full-fledged Vietnam experience, but I don't think they will do that after already haven scratched off the idea off their ist with Hours of Darkness. Besides, Far Cry has been pretty goofy for quite some time now, and I doubt they'd be able to combine that with such an infamous conflict.

Still, I would be on-board for a Far Cry set in Southeast-Asia. There's some amazing scenery to explore there, pictures I've seen of Vietnam, Burma, and especially Thailand and Indonesia displayed amazing and highly interesting Landscape. Going the "Far Cry 4" Route and just making up a whole new country could make for a relatively unpolitical and new experience.


Please let me know about your ideas!

I blame Hurk for some of Far Cry's writing and atmosphere issues. Sometimes he just kills it outright. Ubisoft needs to return to the series roots with Far Cry 2 and 3.

With you all the way on that, my friend !

1. Medieval times. Game of Thrones setting would be perfect.
2. Matrix: some action inside Matrix, some action in the real world.
3. The Sprawl, set in Gibson world. Mostly urban, mega-corporations, cyberspace, etc. Potentially with some Blade Runner and Ghost in a Shell elements mixed in.
4. Silmarillion - as Edain caught up in First Age struggle between Elves and Morgoth.

China during a 2nd civil war. After playing Far Cry 4, I felt wanting to see more of a Chinese set Far Cry.

LoL Comrade, why not just poke the bear and suggest Hong Kong !

End game could be nuking China !
US almost dropped 40 plus nukes on China around teh time of teh Korean war, maybe they
should have !
Kim waaank poonse oong would not be a problem now had they just done the job right ! LOL !

Though some chinese reading this may disagree, expected from nations that have never fought for there freedoms.....
When are the chinese people going to rise up and fight for there freedom, or are they going to blindly follow a murderous government whos record is worse than Hitlers into a third world war with the west for freedom again.......one has to wonder....

FREE HONG KONG - The new FarCry 6 !

Oh am I getting to political !
I digress...

It might actually be likely that the next Far Cry will go beyond Ubisoft's current political spectrum. If so, it wouldn't surprise me.

Too politically hot. FC games are always multinational and multiracial. Ubi is right to
avoid anything that is involved in heated contention among masses. - Singling out any
race as the primary target is just dangerous. Things always get very ugly very quickly.

Nam left a dark imprint and is still causing conflict - especially in american culture.

They could never accurately depict what happened there.

They could stop all of the complainers and sell much more merchandise if they just made
'features' like cut-scenes, screen clutter, crafting, XP, 'collecting' difficulty - even 'story' etc.
optional or configurable they'd have the perfect product that would please everybody.

Instead they make groaners on all sides of the isle - about things that can easily be made
to toggle on for casual players and off for more serious players; - Most of whom just want
missions and the freedom to play the first 10 or so in any order before progressing on to
the next 10.

- Open routes, strategies, tactics and logistics to plan is essential to have true open world
gaming; and it's the most rewarding.
