Good title but could be improved.
Graphics are really sharp and crisp and the way the world is rendered just so beautiful, looks so fantastic and realistic, from the water textures to the skybox it all really looks amazing.
Can really sit back and imagine you are there.
The player models and vehicles are done very well also.
Weapon models and textures are really great, nice metal and wood textures make them seem so real.
The map is massive, if you haven't played it yet I can tell you the map is bigger then you think!
Its been created really well and makes you feel like your in the jungle or the desert.
There are many trees, grasses, mountains, dunes, plants, animals, buildings, lakes, rivers, water falls and much more so it really seems they worked hard to make the world as good as they could.
I played fallout3 and cod and I saw alot of glitches, items floating, brushes flickering but with farcry 2 you really get the sense this is a polished game.
There are quite a few different weapons to buy and unlock but you will need to play the game and get quite far to get some of the more fun ones.
There is a dart rifle like maybe you would see a vet shoot a lion to sedated it and it's really deadly, I love this weapon because its really great to sniper a few guards and still be unnoticed due to the silencer.
It's a first person shooter and it dosen't disapoint when it comes to first person shooting.
The explosive weapons make for some nice chaos when they set large areas on fire.
The missions can get repetitive but thats really up to you and how you choose to attack certain locations and people.
You have the weapons so if you want to go in all guns blazing then go for it, if you wish to sit on a rock and sniper them, then thats cool also, maybe you like to play with fire!
There is a lot of driving from mission to mission, so much so that it feels like just driving to a mission seems like a mission in it's self, alot of missions :o
People complained there is too much traveling around, but personally when im traveling through this beautiful country with the sun shinning them i'm happy.
Don't walk it will take hours!
Multiplayer.
I was really surprised to see that they have done a really good job with this game when it comes to playing online, there are vote options for swapping teams, extending and not playing maps and also banning tk (team killers) this maybe normal in the pc world but on ps3 its nice to see such options.
The multiplayer maps support all weapons, you can drive around and run people over, be a sniper, assault gunner, machine gunner etc so for that I'm very happy about, seems to be something other fps mp games have failed on (cod5).
Things I think could be improved.
Damage scale, takes a lot of bullets to kill enemy and would make the game more realistic if they died from less damage.
Ai, most of the time the computers ai is good but from time to time they will be standing next to you doing nothing and a weird one I see from time to time is ai facing the oppisite direction to you but when they fire there gun its hitting you, quite weird.
The map can be confusing at times and a lot of the time dosen't zoom in enough.
Aiming seems pretty hard when your moving, seems like one tiny movement on the thumb pads and you all over the place, maybe I need to play about with options on that one.
It has a slight arcade feel to the game I would personaly like it to be more realistic in game play.
In all I think its a great game and the online mode is a lot of fun.
