Kinda suprised no one posted about this.(searched)

For me It looks like a combination of BF3(graphics) & COD(pretty much the rest), what do you guys think?

Hmm. It... it reminds me of... something, but I can't quite place it.

It's as if I've seen this many times before, but not in this exact form.

Strange, very strange.

Looks very, very CODish. Now, I like playing me some COD, but seriously, shooters need to do something more than simply ape COD if they want to stand out.

Also, just my personal opinion, but the HUD looks horribly cluttered up. I like games which keep onscreen info to a minimum, or at least to a reasonable level. The screen in FC3 just looks horribly busy and distracting. Strange, considering the lengths they went to in FC2 to try and make the integration of HUD elements and gameplay more natural.
This is a pre-alpha, although I doubt they will completely overhaul the HUD but they will probably make some changes.

This looks alot like a fun holiday with guns. There seems to be not much new, except the nice setting and the tourist outfits. I`m more interested in the sp but a good mp is always a bonus.

Looks very shiny and fun, but so did Far Cry 2 and I hated the way the multiplayer felt, I disliked how it felt in the singleplayer but I still managed to get somewhere before giving up on that.

In a nutshell, multiplayer in any Far Cry is a far second for me.

Looks like battlefield gun play in uncharted maps with Cod mechanics and killzone 3 melee kills.

Call me jaded, but I'm just getting so tired of CoD ripoffs that it's hard to give a new game that comes out a fair trial...

Note that when I say CoD, I mean 'Modern military-style first person shooter'.

Ehhh, I guess I'll check out the reviews when it comes out but from what I see in this video it's just another of those games.

The animations at the end look like a cool idea. A way to get back at the spawn camping top player from the other team or to free the honest playing skilled leader of the opposing.

Are you fuckin' kidding me? That's FR3 multiplayer? It looks exactly like CoD! Except it will be better because it will have a map editor. I would have expected Ubisoft of all people to make something more original after AC multiplayer.

But the shooting in FC 2 was pretty bad, I don't see the problem with ripping off something good in terms of mechanics.
Also It's like 4 months till the game ships the HUD should be cleaned up.

Why is multiplayer still something people need to cover!?

It's going to be the same as pretty much every other multilayer component out there. Even all the things they claim to be innovations have been ripped straight from other titles. Multiplayer is just a way of padding out the games life without employing writers to make the singplayer longer. (Because we all know, FPS's stories are hilariously bad)

"Quick, let's try to capture some of the Call of Duty Market!".

Anyone remember Farcry?

You know, the original Far Cry? The game this series is based off.

Could we go back to that? Please?

Shooting in FC2 was awesome. The problem were awkward hitboxes.

I honestly dont mind about this, FC2 multiplayer sucked overall, it was very slow and sluggish. And the problem that I have with the more recent CODs (didnt even bought MW3) is that there is always so much shit going on at the same time that nullifies any kind of strategy and it becomes closer to Unreal then anything else.

COD 4 had it right, 3 kill streaks and only one could be active at the same time of another one, while only one of them was more of a weapon then an assistance. It was also a lot more easy to understand that something was coming and that the players should take cover. Since MW2 if you happen to be somewhere open and an enemy decides to launch a predator you are fucked.

Well, that sucks. Far Cry 2 had an amazingly fun multiplayer (at least when playing with friends in LAN) thanks to some unique characteristics, it would've been nice to see a more polished version of that.

Aside from the end of the video with the executing of the enemy team's top player (that's kinda cool), it looks like Ubi took elements from BF and COD, taped them together, and made it look uninteresting. There's just nothing there that looks appealing or more fun than BF or COD. Sure, it's pre-alpha, and things may get changed somewhat between now and release, but there doesn't seem to be enough to make it stand out from the rest.
