    Couldn't see a separate thread on this, feel free to merge if I'm just being a *' * and there is one.

    Anyway, really excited for this. Not out until 2017 mind but, still. Looks amazing. I just hope it doesn't let me down, been pumped for the last couple TC games and couldn't get into them. Siege being the main one.

    Hope I can get a couple mates together to play this on co-op.

    Only to saddos who really get wound up about them. The graphics will still be, at the very least, fantastic.

    It's the gameplay and story that matter the most.

    I'm not someone who looks too in depth into games so it won't bother me.

    Graphics still look shithot and it's still just under 9 months or so till the game comes out. Story sounds great too, love the open world style.

    Was thinking that myself.

    I have BF1 sitting there gathering dust but so could still get £20-25 for that. Put it towards this.

    Me and a mate got it a week ago. Haven't played it much cause we're waiting on another two of our chums to get it when they get paid.

    From what I have played, it's quite good. It's a shooter so you know what you're getting in that respect. But the map is * massive. We just got a helicopter and discovered around half of the map.

    It'll definitely be a good laugh playing it with a few people. Like a mix between GTA heists and Far Cry, as someone on here said I think.

    The 4 player co-op looks cool as *.

    We were all in HMV yesterday staring at it wondering if we should buy. Think I definitely will, after the next few weeks of Uni are done.

    The open world style combined with the fact there's so many different landscapes and mission types is interesting me. Customising your character too.

    Also, the fact that one of you can be a sniper on the hill, while one drives a truck through the centre of the compound and 2 other parachute in has me with a severe half chub.

    Yeah I'd recommend it. Certainly isn't a lack of things to do or see.

    So, bought this yesterday after handing in some of my coursework (wee reward). Played it for 6 straight hours last night with 2 of my mates and wow. It is unreal. Few things I like so far;

    1. The Map. It is * huge. I knew it was open world but there are so many different areas to explore, each with the different difficulty as well which is good, reminds me of the old Godfather games in terms of the factions etc.

    2. The movement. Feels really smooth when you are running around with your guy. I'm not used to the style of the 3rd person normally but loving it so far.

    3. Sniping. Getting a one shot kill with a bolt action sniper on this game is so, so satisfying.

    4. The variety. There seems like tonnes of * to do. To put it into perspective, we played it for 6 hours last night and only done one mission. Spent most of the time travelling around exploring the map and picking up supplies and better weapons. We haven't even scratched the surface on most of them either, never mind the side missions and full story.

    5. The bases/compounds. Much like Farcry in the respect that it is fun as * trying to take out a large compound. Example being two of my mates up on the hill with snipers telling me where guys were etc while I went in under the cover of darkness killing * while they slept.


    So far it is exactly how I imagine it would be, and I can rarely say that about games. Well worth the £22.99 after I had traded in BF1.

    Aye still enjoying it as well. Even single playing is fun, just roaming around and trying to sneak in and take out an entire compond is really fun.

    The vehcile physics are the only thing to let this game down.

    Haven't played single player yet mate but I'm gonna be using it to travel the map and find stuff when my mates aren't on.

    Saving missions etc for the coop.

    Much the same. I tend to go back and replay old missions or doing the side missions a lot. Even if I come across a new compound, I don't activate the mission.
    Single play plays the same way, 3 ai ghosts for you to tell what to do. So great fun all around.

    Aye its class.

    Not been on over the weekend due to having stuff to do but will be jumping on again towards the end of the week. Addicting as * once you are on, just bouncing from mission to mission.
