Game Engine:
Far Cry 2 will not use CryTek's CryENGINE (from the original game) or CryENGINE2 (which is used in Crysis). Instead, Ubisoft has developed a new engine called Dunia, meaning "world" or "earth" in Arabic, Greek, Persian, Hindi, Urdu, Swahili and Malay languages. The engine will take advantage of multi-core processors and support DirectX 9 as well as DirectX 10. Only 2 or 3 percent of the original CryENGINE code is being re-used, according to Michiel Verheijdt, Senior Product Manager for Ubisoft Netherlands.
Edit : That said, no wonder the Xbox 360 can handle it... nod.gif


News:
Ubisoft has unsurprisingly decided that Far Cry 2 will not be PC exclusive, but be available on PS3 and Xbox 360 as well. nod.gif

The game is being put together by its Montreal studio and will run on a fancy new engine built especially for it.

Action this time takes place in Africa, and all three versions are lurking in fiscal 2008 - any time after April this year.

We had previously expected the first-person shooter sequel in the early stretch of 2008, but apparently the success of Assassin's Creed has taken some pressure of the publisher, a little like a chubby person no longer sitting on you.

The original Far Cry was developed by Crysis mastermind Crytek, but the two companies parted ways leaving Ubisoft to acquire full rights to the series in 2006.

Yes. But a "different" version... one that will take advantage of whatever hardware power is left in the Xbox 360...

Dig it here : http://www.xboxic.com/news/2227

The big news first is the PC game Crysis is coming to the 360. However, that PC game won't be the same game as what we will see on the home console. Because Crysis will be running at DirectX10, the game would look inferior since the 360 can only do DirectX9 (as mentioned before). So, the developers are using the same universe that the PC game is set in, with some similar story elements, but the gameplay will be entirely different. The developers told the 1UP guys that they weren't even going to try and replicate Crysis. This would be because the PC version will be running so much more stuff that the 360 couldn't handle, and would be disappointing. They stated that the game needs to run deeper, with the physics and world needing to be constructed differently.

So there you go... Crysis Xbox 360 does not equal Crysis PC. It's simply a new game set in the Crysis universe. smile.gif

I think Far Cry was never exclusive for any consoles, PC, u-name-it.
The 1st Far Cry was there for the Xbox360, so i am pretty not surprise that this game will be coming to the 360 and definitely not a PC-Exclusive laugh.gif brows.gif

R U sure ? Far Cry Xbox 360's quality is nowhere close to the PC version. Far Cry 2 Xbox 360 seem to know how to push the console properly since Far Cry 1 Xbox 360 was merely "an update of the Xbox version".

Hmmm....i wonder is there any Malaysian working in this project. The engine name is actually call DUNIA and i don't think it's coincidence, like the Halo 3 acheivement "Askar".

I am looking forward to this, love the first one on pc (xbox version too). Luckily they listen to their fan and take out the monster in the game.

Far Cry 2, Alan Wake and GTA4 are the titles that will break records in 2008 on the Xbox 360...

Its coming....

OMG... watch this... looks so damn fun



Dude gets shot, and then another comes over to carry him to safety only to be shot again.

Then, plant an explosive onto a vehicle, cause some ruckus, drive away, then while being chased.... KABOOM !!
