Far Cry 4 pay for multiplayer?

Tie Lightning

So with the anticipated release of Far Cry 4 coming up, Ubisoft has slowly been releasing more and more about the game to the public. 

 

In the most recent update they outlined features that will be added to the game via season pass, one of the features being competitive multiplayer. The PvP game mode will be teams fighting for capture points throughout the Far Cry landscape.

 

But what is strange is that Ubisoft will only allow for competitive multiplayer if you purchase the season pass. While the standard game does have single player and co-op, the choice to leave competitive multiplayer out of the $60 version seems like a new idea that Ubisoft is employing in order to increase the amount of money that they are making on each game.

 

This will be very interesting to see in the future if game developers release their game with a $60 price tag, but then unlock features like multiplayer with a season pass in order to cover more of their costs.

So.... Ubisoft is worse than EA now?

 

Edit: I wonder if it means "pvp mp mode" as in, a game mode, or the whole PVP system...

I wouldn't even consider far cry series even worth buying for the multiplayer... but ubisoft needs to stop messing with the titles I want.

Far Cry multiplayer is worthless anyway. Who gives a crap if they charge more for it, because nobody will even bother buying it.

Still, I doubt it's true, but it's further evidence of being douches if true.

Anticipated release?

 

I doubt anyone is anticipating this game!

I want it still, despite everyone complaining about it. It will a new game with better graphics and a slightly different setting with a slightly different storyline, same old Ubisoft but still enjoyable non the less. But not a $70 so steam sale.

I hope there won't be any story DLCs.

 

And i hope it will not just be FC3 2.0 because from what it looks like, it is. I'll get it for the christmas holidays when it has dropped a bit in price. :D

who cares...

All the assets are more or less ripped straight from Far Cry 3, as far as I've seen. The weapon sounds, models and textures, foliage, animations and more.

Rant:

Why do Ubisoft feel like trying to make every game they make GOTY? Because they always have fucked up in one way or another. For example, uPlay... Just uPlay in general. And with all these fuck ups they still get accolades galore and their games are masturbated upon by the press.

If uPlay don't want this game pirated to unholy fucking Hell then they can start rectifying things such as their tendency to DLC rape and when that's done, they can get rid of uPlay.

And I enjoyed far cry 3. Yea sure its like COD same stuff over and over but sometimes its the little things that they add that make a huge a difference.

no, that is how to have your multiplayer dead in a matter of weeks.
If i have to pay to unlock a feature chances are i am not going to pay for it.
And even if i did pay for it, the amount of people who actually do is low, and i would never find a match.


This is just one MORE reason i have sworn to pirate every single ubisoft game that comes out until they get their shit together.

So disapointed. I really hope this isn't the case. I guess Ubisoft is really going by that Joe Dirt quote "Life's a garden, dig it."

Oh come on. Now they're just trolling.

I thought that was my own comment for a second! Lol

 

On topic:

Tbh. I don't really blame Ubisoft...

Today "all" of us are just a bunch of greedy gamers who want more and more without thinking about what it takes to deliver a game that can do that.

What Ubisoft is simply doing, is taking advantage of the market as it currently is - and will keep doing that, until consumers stop buying.

Like Linus says. It will go away, if you just stop paying.

 

Everyone have a cool signature. I don't, so I thought I would write something.

- Cool right?

I actually like this solution as long as it means more development time and polish for the single player. If I were to buy it, it would be for the sp anyway
