I'm fairly sure that a good percentage of people know what Far Cry is. For those who don't (and because I was going to say it anyway); Far Cry is a single-player, first-person, survival-type game. That is the campaign portion of it. In terms of multiplayer, it follows a similar format to most FPSs: CTF, Deathmatch (Slayer), Team Deathmatch (Team Slayer; I know you're not stupid I just felt the need to clarify), etc. And it also has a map-editor somewhat like Halo's "Forge." But unlike Forge, players are given the ability to not only manipulate the objects within the playable area, but to edit terrain as well and built some marvelous maps. I'm pretty sure my friends Raider and Puba can attest to that. I feel that with the newest installment of the series (Far Cry 3) coming out this September, it might be a nice idea to maybe try that out. I like Forge just as much as the next gamer, however it does have its limitations, and this could be an opportunity to expand FC's operational area a bit. I'm not saying stray away from FC's roots, just dip our toes into another pool a bit and test the waters. It would also give our Forge artists some more clay to work with. And just incase somebody reads this wrong I am not insulting the skill of our Forge department, or in any way saying that I am tired of seeing their work. I myself have been somewhat of an amateur Forger in some of my free-time, and never could I have imagined coming up with the maps produced by them.
Just an idea to consider.
