Far Cry Instincts Evolution news

By Ellie Gibson Published 7 March, 2006

Details of the multiplayer modes.

With just a few weeks to go until Xbox title Far Cry Instincts Evolution hits the shops, more details of the game's multiplayer modes have been revealed.

There are five in total - first up is Chaos, which tasks you with killing a specific number of opponents. The first player to reach the target wins the match. Team Chaos works in the same way, but up to four teams can battle it out.

Then there's Steal the Sample, where you have to steal said sample from the enemy camp and return it to your own base to win a point. If you find yourself in a sticky situation while you're carrying the sample, you can toss it to a team-mate so they can make a run for it.

Predator sees you and your team attempting to reach a transmitter which sets off a sonic alarm. When the alarm goes off, the predator dies - but you'll have to travel through their territory to reach the transmitter.

And finally, Seek and Secure mode tasks you with locating the active station and holding it for your team. You have to keep the station secure until the time runs out.

So there you have it - oh, except there's a map editor, too. Far Cry Instincts Evolution is out on March 31st.

    I hope the game is much better this time. While FCI started off well, it all too soon descended into a plain old run-and-gun turkey shoot. Backed up with one of the worst stories I've seen in a long time and some cronically under-developed characters.

    Might rent it, but I'm not holding my breath TBH.

    Chaos = Deathmatch
    Team Chaos = Team Deathmatch
    Steal the Sample = Capture the Flag
    Seek and Secure = King of the Hill

    BORING.

    Predator sounds fun though.

    So, like the original Farc Cry Instincts, isn't it?

    Single player game was ok-ish, the multiplayer game was better. The thing that made it stand out is the map editor. The best editor on consoles by far and a reason to still play self-made maps in multiplayer.

    These are exactly the same as Far Cry Instincts aren't they?

    The predator thing is a good laugh, the rest of them are fairly boring. The map editor is cool but since most of the people playing want you to experience their masterpiece (turd of a map) you spend half of your time downloading shitty maps and slowly filling up your harddrive with cack.

    It is all a bit of a mess. There is FC Instincts Evolution and FC Instincts Predator - which one is coming on what platform? Also, are they really Crytek's work or just licensed from Crytek?

  • lemonfist #6 6 years ago

    Talha, Evolution is for Xbox, while Predator is for Xbox 360 and includes the original Far Cry Instincs and Evolution.

    And I think they're made by Ubisoft, not Crytek.

    @lemonfist : Thanks for clearing that up. I gather that Ubi have the Far Cry name while everything else (inclusing the engine) is with Crytek who in turn are under the wings of EA - that is why they are working on a new game and not Far Cry 2 for PC.

    With GRAW, PGR3 and now this, the case of X360 gets stronger by the day.
