GAME INFO:
Gameplay will revolve around the player character's manhunt through a fictional region
of Africa and will be entirely open-ended, with the player being able to ally with anyone
he/she chooses. The player's choices are completely unfettered, giving a sandbox style of
gameplay and allowing the story to progress at the speed the player chooses
Instead of using individual maps, the game will take place in a sprawling African landscape
with terrain ranging from Savannah to jungle.The gameplay area will be 50 km2 (19.5 sq miles)
Some members of the Ubisoft Montreal team spent two weeks in several locations in Africa filming and
photographing native wildlife. The team will use the animal footage and environment photos to
create an extremely realistic environment
The player's actions may also have a lasting effect on the environment: for example
one of the missions shown so far by the developers had the player sabotage a pipeline
owned by one of the factions that's pumping fresh water from a lake to a neighboring
country, exchanging it for arms and munition. After the player destroys it, part of the
surrounding area becomes flooded, including a mine where another mission may take place
Various factions and vehicles will be featured; enemies will include human mercenaries
but sci-fi creatures such as the mutants from Far Cry will not be featured. Furthermore
the player's feral abilities introduced in Far Cry Instincts and its expansions will not
be returning in Far Cry 2. A dynamic weather system has been added that has a day night
cycle and different weather conditions such as storms and strong winds. The time of day also
affects the AI by making them more alert and aggresive or more relaxed and banal. One minute
real-time is equivalent to five minutes in-game
