Far Cry 2 Map Editor Run Through
Far Cry 2 Editor is quite possibly the easiest map editor available right now, but it is also the most limited. Once you get used to this editor’s limitations and boundaries, however, you’ll be sure to...

Is this the full game download??
Since when Ubisoft makes games for free ???!!!!
and yes it's free... in Torrents
Underrated game but not what you would call a Far Cry game, due to not having mutants kinda puzzled by that gaping plot hole.
I really have to concur on the modding subject. I would've loved to have a mod put in a hunger/thirst/sleep system to force me into survival mode. I love such realism mods, because they are completely optional instead of forced on.
are there even planes you can ''take'' that you should fly!!? not on the airports...
Rumor has it Jack Carver has lots of similarities with The Jackal.
The only problem with Far Cry 2 is it's name - people expect(ed) it to be a sequel to Far Cry 1. It isn't. Not by a long shot. I don't even know why Ubisoft bought the IP, they could have made the exact same game with a different title, and then everyone would have been happy. Far Cry fans would have gotten a sequel from Crytek, and Far Cry 2 would have had a different name while still being the awesome game that it is. I, myself, hope Far Cry 3 is more similar the FC2 than FC1.
I wouldn't say the only problem was the name. I thought it was a great game with possibly the best gun play of any game ever but always having to fight people on the way to every mission and enemies respawning at outposts was annoying a better fast travel option would have helped.
I do like the idea that Crytek would have made Far Cry 2 and Ubisoft would have called this Zebra Hunter or something. I also agree that Far Cry 3 should be like Far Cry 2 which I think it most certainly will be I just hope Ubisoft doesn't put any DRM on it...except Valve's.
Also that made me thnk of something does Desura have DRM like Steam? It doesn't seem to but maybe I'm wrong.
