I hope they don't have the respawning roadblocks like in Far Cry 2. I really wanted to enjoy it but just couldn't because of that.

That looks awesome! This game wasn't even on my radar.

I also hope they fixed the respawning enemies at checkpoints.

Very excited about this!

Looks pretty sweet but so did Far Cry 2 and I hated that game.

Hopefully it's not another drive, drive, drive, kill the same guys you already killed 91 times, repeat... like the last one.

Those road blocks had me cursing like a sailor and in the end I gave up in frustration too! It definately ruined what could of been a game I really wanted to like.

It seems like they're trying to mimick the likes of Oblivion/Skyrim in many ways, only more modern.

I'm all for that as I really love and like Oblivion, and cannot wait for Skyrim. I'll have to keep my eyes on this one.

That looks really good. More like the original than FC2 (thank God)

I wonder when it is due out.
