As someone who has never played a farcry before and has no idea what the series is suppose to be... Looks stupid. How does this tie into the farcry series

Each far cry has new characters and a new setting. This is a spinoff that makes the setting 12,000 years ago.

This doesn't seem to need to carry the farcry title.

There has to be some overlapping theme to the series. Gta has new settings and characters but there's a theme. There will never (hopefully) be a Gta taking place in the stone age or distant future.

I honestly would be more inclined to purchase this game if it didn't carry the title farcry.

im hopefull about the setting. but the date is kind of surprising to me. Feb 2016? i like the idea of a spin off title, and hopefully this means the next mainline one is atleast coming out in 2017 (3 years of dev time). but something about this just seems off.... it feels like a spin off.... and not a huge AAA game.

Hence this being a spin off.

It carries the far cry title because it uses the far cry engine. Gameplay will feel almost identical to Far Cry 4.

Yeah if it wasn't for the $60 price on Amazon, I'd think it was just a smaller title.

Bet Far Cry 5 will be 2016 as well. They're probably converting it into a yearly franchise with spinoffs every other year.

i doubt Farcry 5 will release 2016. i think Ghost Recon (which seems a lot like farcry) will release next holiday.

actually, watching the making of video. i am hyped. this can be a very interesting story. and the setting is certainly unique. they are dealing with one of my biggest criticisms in Farcry 4 it seems, which is variety in the open world. this will be no horizon, but i think it can be great.

The new Ghost Recon has my attention over The Division. Sad to see so many impressions of that game being negative. It looked like it could have been the next big deal.

it was announced too soon. the downgrades killed a lot of the hype. and the way they presented the game after didnt help. it seems like a massive sucker fest. like everybody is just going to betray everybody. it also seems like a never ending cycle of hunting for loot, and nothing more.

as far as ghost recon, i am awaiting the downgrades. i also dont like the third person to first person shooting mechanic they have. those two points are getting in the way of me being excited about it.

I take it this will be the battlefield hardline of the farcry series.  

Game that probably should be 49.99 sold for 59.99. I'll probably get this on sale as I'm already buying ratchet and Clank plus uncharted 4 quarter 1.

Anyway like someone said I hope this means far cry 5 is a holiday 2017 title.  With that kind of Dev time and next gen only I'd be proper hyped after the very enjoyable far cry 4.

And yeah I'd imagine ghost recon is their holiday 2016 title with the division as their pre summer title.  Leaving their annual assassins creed and just dance that's ubi 2016!right there.  Hopefully they get that sword fighting game out next year.

I'm not down on it.  I also think it looks great

yeah i am super stoked. this isnt a mainline Farcry and we are getting one later on, with all the guns blazing and crazy and awesome shooting. this one is more about hunting and exotic animals. which is a great part of farcry.

Hunting in this will be AWESOME. because you cant just go at a mammoth with a light machine gun. its bows, arrows and spears. its going to be a lot more challenging and awesome. people can hate, but Ubisoft are really mixing it up with this.
