So, there's an incomplete edition?

JAM_brz4029d ago

Yes, when the game was released... it's always like that with Ubisoft and Capcom.

Yi-Long4029d ago

Games are rarely released as 'complete' these days, which is why I and many others have stopped buying them day 1 and for full price, and instead waiting for releases like this.

Been looking forward to playing Far Cry 4. Really loved FC3. Now that they're releasing a Complete Edition, I'll wait for it to hit the <30€ price, and I'll pick it up.

I don't buy 'incomplete' games. I won't support DLC-milking. Vote with your wallet.

Randostar4029d ago

@Yi-Long. Voting would indicate that there is a chance for things to go back the other way, which they never will.

T9004029d ago

Good i still havent purchased Farcry 4. Ill be buying the complete edition on a Steam or Greenmangaming discount lol.

Exactly what these publishers deserve.

KTF264029d ago

Not only ubisoft and capcom
Batman Arkham Asylum GOTY edition
Batman Arkham City GOTY edition
Batman Arkham origins Complete edition
Shadow of Mordor
Tomb Raider GOTY edition for PC, PS3, XB360
The Last of US GOTY edition
Red Dead Redemption GOTY edition
Dishonored GOTY edition

GOTY edition and Complete edition are the same thing The Game + Full DLC pack

@Yi-Long
I think FC4 is complete game without the DLCs
I didn't play any of its DLCs but from what I saw on the Internet it looks like the DLCs are the worst part of the game

"Far Cry 4 Complete Edition announced"

-Of course, but its not just them, its almost the whole industry including Microsoft and Sony doing the same thing= DLC.

It's pretty stupid to buy DLC or season passes for games.
I never bought DLC in the past, probably never will in the future.

Developers intentionally take out chunks of the game, and sell it for extra €€€. Shame on them...

LamerTamer4028d ago (Edited 4028d ago )

Yeah, they are called first releases.

When you buy a new game on day one it isn't finished/complete which is why you need to instantly run to the internet to download the 3 gig "day one patch". Any game with a "day one patch" was not released complete as for the patch to be ready day one they had to start working on it and test/debug the patch even before the game went gold. Then there are the "season passes" which have content not finished in time ripped from the main broken game they rushed out sooner than they should have.

I see DriveClub as one of these. The game was garbage on day one and didn't even have the weather effects. They have been finishing it for months. It isn't bad now but even if you bought the disc it is basically a digital download game. Same for AC Unity among others.

magiciandude4028d ago (Edited 4028d ago )

Games rarely ever release complete nowadays. Nothing new to see here folks. Come back in 5-10 years when you see episodic games released at 60 a piece and each lasting 90 minutes tops...

Getting games on launch this gen is becoming pointless. Complete editions now are getting released less than a year after the original ones.

Yi-Long4029d ago

If they wait too long with releasing a complete edition, nobody cares any more. And if they make you wait 2 years for a 'GOTY' edition, or a 'Complete' edition, then those people are clearly patient enough to also wait 3-4 months longer in order to get that GOTY/Complete edition half price somewhere.

Now, if Ubisoft had just said: Here's Far Cry 4, and all DLC that comes afterwards, will be made available free, then I would have bought it day 1 for full price, and they would have made 60€ from me.

Or, to hit a middle-ground, they could come up with a new strategy for DLC, as in it's 'premium' content when it first comes out, so those who are really eager to play it will pay for the DLC, but as a rule, after 6 months, the DLC will become free for everyone who owns/buys the game. That way, you could still get day 1 sales from gamers like me, cause I know in the end I'll still have a complete game for 50-60 euro, cause I'll wait for the DLC to become free.... while they can still make money from temporary 'premium' DLC, from those gamers who don't have a problem with aying for DLC and want it when it comes out.

Sashamaz4029d ago (Edited 4029d ago )

I like to think of it as buying a new car, you don't get all the extra/best features for free, you have to pay for them. I find it odd that gamers think they deserve DLC for free as it they are entitled to it. What you get when a game is released is what they decided to sell to you, it's their business and it's their way.

I know I'll get hate for this and I'm sorry to say, but I think most gamers are just delusional.

Minute Man 7214026d ago

Gaming will die when that happens.

VsAssassin4029d ago

So what the gamers played last year was incomplete? I would use "Remaster" instead.

Adexus4029d ago

They aren't remastering anything though, simply bundling in DLC that they released.

Majin-vegeta4029d ago

Does this come with all the DLC??If so I may bite.Man it pays off waiting.

Yi-Long4029d ago

That was also the case last-gen. Fallout 3 GOTY I picked up for 12 euro, Forza 3 Ultimate Edition for 8 euro, Assassin's Creed 2 GOTY for 11-12 euro, etc etc etc.

Be a little bit patient, and in most cases you can reap the benefits later.

samchez774028d ago

But that's so, sooooo hard!

badz1494028d ago

not if you have a huge backlog of games. thank you PS+

*cries in the corner in shame of my backlogs

samchez774026d ago

*goes mad with frustration at too many games, not enough time*

I'm only at 37% completion on GTA V PC, but now new Wolfenstein stand alone DLC is out and Witcher 3 in a few weeks!!!!!

RAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHH *rage face*

late but still a good move, oobi

InUrFoxHole380d ago

Seriously, it's great to see devs add things to older games.

OhReginald380d ago

Sony....you're really letting ubisoft out of all all companies to out class you??? Give us the bloondborne 60 fps patch....ffs

dantesparda380d ago

I second this (Bloodborne 60fps) plus damn, Ubisoft, you're doing great but now the last thing I want youi to do is mae Far Cry Primal 60fps and AC Unity

Profchaos380d ago

Everytime someone asks for a bloodborne patch it gets delayed 1 day.

ETA next century

I_am_Batman379d ago

They know it's gonna cost them sales of the inevitable Remake that'll probably come around the PS6 launch.

raWfodog380d ago

Good news for when, or If, I ever play it. It’s waaay down on my backlog list lol.

P_Bomb380d ago

I like these 60fps patches. Hoping they’ll do Ghost Recon Wildlands someday.

Yi-Long380d ago

Kudos to Ubisoft for once again going back to older titles and then offering a nice upgrade for free. I know the company gets a lot of criticism, in quite a few cases understandable and justified, but in this area of contintued post-launch support for their SP games, they deserve some credit.

Ubisoft Removes Nudity in Silent Far Cry 4 Update (New Info: Changes Reverted)

Update: Ubisoft has acknowledged that the Japanese version of the game, which includes regional censorship, was mistakenly released globally. The company says it has reverted these changes in the game's worldwide branch.

Ubisoft has quietly removed nudity from Far Cry 4 in a recent update, sparking speculation about Tencent’s growing influence on the publisher.

You can murder, mame, and viciously attack people, but anything that deals with showing a body in a natural state whether for titillation or narrative, is some truly terrible thing. We are so weird with our puritan thought process. Feed our bloodlust and fuel our enjoyment for entertainment of simulating acts of harm and murder, but god forbid you see digitized TnA. It will never make sense to me.

Rebel_Scum404d ago

tbh even if they did remove it, it doesnt matter. I dont even remember when there was nudity in the game. If it was there it was so inconsequential.

B5R404d ago

Agreed. It absolutely makes no sense

Also, even though Ubisoft reverted the changes that removed nudity, there's the bigger issue of developers being able to make large changes to the game you paid for whenever they want.

Kassanova07404d ago (Edited 404d ago )

Stellar Blade comes to mind. This is why buying physical is the way to go.

Played and enjoyed Far Cry, Far Cry 3 and 4 campaigns .

-Foxtrot791d ago

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor791d ago

Yeah, 4 was good, was hard choosing which Golden Dawn member to side with, when they were both pieces of sh!t.
I've beaten all the main entries except 2 and 6, ended up uninstalling 6 to download something else instead.

Profchaos791d ago

I'd love a far cry pack with the original PC game (not the half assed port on ps360) instincts, predator even a port of far cry 2 to modern consoles back when these games had their own identity and weren't far cry 3 cut and pastel

Demetrius791d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger88791d ago (Edited 791d ago )

Same here, I don't know why these games get so much hate. I've thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them, with only a couple of exceptions. I wish they'd hurry up and announce Far Cry 7. The only thing I'm concerned about is the rumoured time limit.
