Friendship Friday Kickoff

FRIENDSHIP FRIDAY KICKOFF

Friday September 26th

Today we are kicking off Friendship Friday. Every Friday from now until launch we will share some of the buddy dossiers with you. In Far Cry 2, a main character is not imposed on you to play throughout the game. Instead, you select your character from nine available buddies…you can choose your character based on the way he looks, how badass his background sounds, or maybe even by process of elimination you select a character you just don’t want to play alongside. This becomes important because of the characters you DON’T select, they will now be in the world (along with three female buddies) for you to encounter and have a relationship with to the level of your choosing. Don’t like the way Marty looks, and shoot him as soon as you see him? That’s your choice, but now he’s permanently gone from the world and won’t be around to save your hide. Today we are introducing two buddies that may be new to you – Quarbani Singh and Xianyong Bai. Think you’ll play as either of these guys?

I know, it's kind of gay. And not only that, but the fact that these hardcore mercenary type guys are referred to as "buddies" just make me laugh.

So wait, does that mean co-op campaign?

I doubt it, just in game AI characters.

No you don't, there's nine total to pick from, not just these two.

When he said "any of these guys" I thought he meant of all of them not just the 2.

Yeah, I understand. "either" would have been a better choice then "any".

Actually I did read it, I just misunderstood what you said. I guess you didn't read my last post.

[ACloggingtons]

Um... Do these guys really matter to any of you? I know i really only care about the map editor. I probably wont play the campaign for like a month.

[PsychoBucket]

Nope not at all.

[Defiance]

OMG the first guy was a Superintendent!
