I was just watching the trailer again on the ubi.com site, and I noticed ALOT of cutscenes were cut from the game, most of which looked incredibly cool. Anyone have an idea as to why so much didn't make it into the final version? For those curious, the trailer is located here: ftp://ftp.ubisoft.com/games/farcry/media/Official_FC_Trailer.wmv

like many movies, the storyline was developed over time or they realised that those scenes were not nessessary.

Far Cry had a storyline? Curse you blinking eyelids, foiled me again.

I'm pretty sure it had something to do with a Haiwaiian shirt smuggling ring.

I thought it involved a Survivor episode gone awry in which the contestants killed earch other with automatic weapons.

I could be wrong. I've never touched the game.

All I remember of Far Cry's story:

"Islands. Stuff. Stuff. Stuff. Stuff. BOOM! Stuff. Mutants. Ugh. Ugh. More Mutants. UGH. I HATE MUTANTS. Stuff. Ugh. Stuff. Annoyance. BOOM!!!"

I'll admit to Reactor CTF, Duel Abyss, Duel Turbulent, Duel Dustball, and even the CCCP, but not Sky High! (my first, be kind!) Ok so maybe I will.

You forgot the ****ty ending.

I'm sorry, I enjoyed it's storyline.

I made a thread, that turned into the debate, so I made a second thread, that turned into a debate, then I made a third thread, that caught on fire, burned down, got flamed, crapped on, bashed, then turned into a debate...but the fourth one, the fourth one stayed on topic!

It gives me a good enough reason to be shooting all this stuff up... so it's fine with me.

I bet you think that's funny, don't you.

I hated the opening cutscene, it made no sense at all. The intro in the trailer was way better.

Blown away by the force of the word, woken up by the sound of the siren. It's genocide.

Whatever the ending was, it has to have been better than Medal of Honor: Allied Assault's ending. That was pathetic.

Hopefully it was better than Return to Castle Wolfenstein's ending.
