Okay I am a fan of Far Cry 2. I played through and got everything in the game. Then I moved onto Multiplayer and it was this amazing thing where you could host matches on custom player made maps, you could spawn in vehicles and make racing maps. It was overall a very fun time. Then I hear Far Cry 3 is begin released and in the map editor there are vehicles, AI's, and placeable weapons. I immediately pre-ordered the game with excitement and couldn't believe they had animals in the game. So I opened my game played through the single-player and then decided I'd move onto Assassins Creed. I played through that and finally felt I would play Far Cry 3's Multiplayer. I was so excited I waited so long so maps would actually be made and so more of my friends had the game.
So I load up Multiplayer and go and join my first game. I really enjoyed it it was amazing I loved the leveling and progression system and then I said wait a minute....... I tried downloading a map and playing it. I went into private match and I noticed everything was gone! In shock I thought maybe I am missing something. Nope. There was no way for me to host a match publicly on downloaded maps. I then noticed there was no way of loading up the map I downloaded. So I went back to the Map Editor Archive and had to find the map again and I noticed that the only way for me to play it was in private match by loading it up by searching in the archive. I could download maps but couldn't play them. I thought wow maybe I am missing something again.... nope. Okay I thought to myself.
So I then decided hey well maybe I'll make a map then show my friends. So I started making a map added in some test objects etc.... and I noticed I couldn't have vehicles, AI's, or pre-placed weapons! Ummm why would I have these available if I can't place them. Instantly, something died inside of me because there would be no more race maps, I couldn't play fighting tigers or lions, and I can't set up my own placed weapons like Halo. I noticed some other things too... Texture limits, a limit of like 20 lights, terribly designed water layering system, lack of placeable occlusion blocks... etc...
I am just wondering who at Ubisoft or whoever designed this Multiplayer/Map Editor had the idea that it would improve the game to not allow players to be creative. Maybe I wanted to make my own single-player type campaign? No no no that would be cool why would you want that? I am just so shocked anyone could be so delusional and not see what the community wants. It is very simple to see unless you are blind deaf and stupid. Honestly, update this game! Fix the Multiplayer, fix the search system, fix the map editor, remove the limits ALL limits- It is not you to decide whether or not I can or cannot have more textures lights etc... it is the map designers decision whether or not they want there map to lag or crash that is the whole part of the design and testing process. If I add too many lights and it mlags then clearly I need to redesign not limit myself. If I want to make a map with tigers everywhere and have a huge mess of a map then let me have fun.
Seriously if anyone actually takes the time to read this thing at least comment below and make a voice. We as the community should have a voice we paid for the game so we all should equally voice our opinion because without us there would be no game! So please update the game and fix ALL the issues seriously. Other than that I have no complaints... Thanks!
