Read Full Detailed Report - Far Cry 2

Far Cry 2 is a mission-based, open-ended FPS set in a fictional african country on the verge of civil war. The story is not even remotely connected to the original Far Cry, so this game is more like a Boiling Point fan's dream come true. Who needs Trigens when angry mercs are everywhere ?

FYI those are not actual cutscenes. You still have control of the camera.

There are a few more as well. The intro when you are falling out of bed and anytime you use a critical healing task. I was too lazy to pic them up.

==Game Information==

However the Widescreen checkbox is only available in singleplayer, and it seems the FOV hack created by Racer_S for v1.0 & 1.01 is banned by Punkbuster; so to this day, Far Cry 2 is still Vert- in multiplayer.

Do I have some weirdo version of FC2 or why am I able to have widescreen checkbox enabled on multiplayer ;)

Just checked this - The "Widescreen" checkbox is available in all Multiplayer modes (checked Player Matches (Unranked), Ranked Matches, and LAN) and works to change the FOV.

Would you mind taking some MP screenshots to show this? It could improve the grade.
