Evolution [edit]

Ubisoft Montreal served as the game's atomic number 82 developer and was responsible for creating the game'south single-player. It was a global product that involved multiple Ubisoft studios: Massive Entertainment created the game'south multiplayer portion, Ubisoft Shanghai designed the missions and crafted the AI of wildlife, Ubisoft Bucharest provided quality assurance, Ubisoft Reflections assisted Montreal on the pattern of vehicles, and Cherry Storm Entertainment was responsible for making the PC version and the game'south user interface. W Studio created early on concept fine art for the game.^[31] The game's pre-production started in 2008,^[32] and more than ninety people worked on the game.^[33] Far Cry 3 was initially planned to form a single cohesive narrative with the previous installments of the series, though this was abandoned when the game'south development was partially restarted in 2010 due to the departure of several creative staff including the original creative director and narrative director.^{[32] [34]} On November six, 2012, Ubisoft confirmed that the game had been released to manufacturing.^[35] Far Cry 3 is the offset game in the series to use the Dunia 2 game engine, a heavily modified and upgraded version of the Dunia engine used in Far Cry ii. The Dunia 2 engine was made to amend the performance of Dunia-based games on consoles and to add more circuitous rendering features such as global illumination.^{[36] [37]}

Gameplay design [edit]

The squad avoided creating distinct levels. Every bit opposed to traditional game pattern – in which designers advisedly calculated where and how to place environmental objects on a grid – the team instead experimented with dynamic cover design and utilized an algorithm provided by the Dunia Engine to quickly procedural generate the layout of a big surface area. The team would then manually adjust the placement of unlike objects and test the output. By avoiding repeating patterns, this enabled the world to be unpredictable and realistic, and allowed dynamic wildlife and enemy encounters to remain fresh even when players explore the same area again. Spaces are created to exist logical and grounded. For case, some enemy outposts are sites of industries, crucial for the pirates to operate at Rook Islands. The squad wanted players to believe that the spaces they explore "[exist] for a reason" within the game – not merely for gameplay purposes – and these efforts at creating a civilization helped increase the game globe'south brownie.^[32] When creating the globe'south infinite, the game was inspired by The Elder Scrolls series and Red Dead Redemption in how these serial advantage players with progression. However, the team wished to avoid repetitiveness in gameplay, and created over 250 dissimilar hostile encounters and a system that remembers each encounter and only recycle information technology after extended play.^[38] The team believed that this helped raise the diversity of the experience.^[39]

The team evaluated the gameplay elements from Far Weep 2 and determined which gameplay elements they should include or improve. Weapon degradation and malaria infection were removed as the team thought that information technology fabricated the game less fun. According to producer Dan Hay, Far Cry two 's globe was barren and lacked reactions to players' deportment. Therefore, the team decided to make the world more lively with the goal of creating "an actual civilization" for players to run across.^[32] In Far Cry iii, players' actions touch on the game's earth, with Vaas'southward influence gradually reducing after Jason liberates a hostile camp.^[twoscore] The world of Rook Islands was designed to be filled with opportunities and activities for players, enticing them into exploring so that they would non experience bored while traveling inside the game'southward world. The team introduced side quests which permit players to learn more about the history and inhabitants of the islands. The globe was designed to be empowering, and so that players were free to do what they wanted in the world without existence hurried into completing the principal quests.^[41] The team also attempted to increase the accessibility of travel past improving the game's driving mechanics and introducing fast travel points.^[42] Within each mission, players can freely choose their playstyle, whether they choose to eliminate enemies using stealth or firepower, Hay assertive that the game respects players' choices. He as well believed the team had crafted a meaningful open world,^[32] and Rook Isle was considered to be the "second almost important character". According to Jamie Keen, the game's lead designer, the world was both "alluring and repulsive" and players will "feel seduced by the place and all the people in it". Inspirations were taken from media including Apocalypse Now and Lost.^[44] The team decided to return to an island setting, similar the start Far Weep, as a narrative decision made during the game's early evolution. The squad believed that the setting mashed well with the story they wanted to create, enabled them to create a world filled with variety, and helped inspire a sense of isolation and discovery.^[45]

Story [edit]

Level designer Mark Thompson stated that in a Far Cry game, morality was not absolute and that at that place was always "a moral gray infinite". The squad intentionally avoided introducing a morality system which would guess players' actions. Gray morality is seen every bit Jason murdered the pirates in order to rescue his friends and survive on the hostile island.^[46] The team took inspiration from Apocalypse At present, The Deer Hunter, and Deliverance when they were writing the story.^[47] They understood the game as a beginning-person shooter, which involves killing many non-playable characters to succeed, and the squad wanted a story that embraced the concept of shooting to prevent narrative dissonance that might hinder the story and the overall experience.^[48] As Jason kills more people, he becomes increasingly tolerant toward violence. Hay stated that players will slowly see the transformation in Jason, every bit he strays further from who he was at the beginning of the game, and begins to parallel his pirate counterparts.^[47] Jason's hallucination sequences were meant to reverberate his destabilizing psyche. Thompson described them every bit "introspective sequences" in which Jason'due south conscience questions the players' actions. When he was writing these sequences, Jeffrey Yohalem was inspired by the dreamlike levels from Prince of Persia.^[49] Jason's friends view him differently and he will begin experiencing post-traumatic stress disorder. Despite his explanatory closing narrative, the game left room for estimation.^[46] Ultimately, Hay stated that the story was about the cost of becoming a hero, and how heavy the toll tin be in 1's journey.^[50]

Yohalem designed a story that examines the minds of players. The game was described as being "self-aware", reacting to players' style of play. Yohalem, in particular, wished to contrast the difference between players and the playable grapheme, in which players have fun playing the game, while Jason is forced on a terrible journey killing people. Being able to freely explore the game world and bask the activities information technology can offering, while ignoring the urgency to salve Jason's friends, was meant to reverberate players' inner mindset. Co-ordinate to Yohalem, the game tin reveal a player'south personal perspective,^[32] and asks whether players are willing to "kill these characters in the game in order to end your amusement".^[51] This creates a sense of discomfort to players. Yohalem, when creating the story and the earth, was inspired by Pulp Fiction, A History of Violence, Requiem For a Dream and Exit Through The Gift Store. As opposed to Far Cry 2 's oppressive world, the game was inspired by Alice in the Wonderland; Yohalem stated that the game asked why players would willingly trap themselves in a beautifully-crafted but virtual world instead of spending time with existent people.^[52] The story was widely criticized for racism and colonialism, though Yohalem dedicated information technology by calling the game "the opposite of Avatar" as the local indigenous people did not demand Jason'due south assistance and he was beingness manipulated into doing what the people wanted.^[51] He insisted that players need to approach the game like a riddle so as to understand the subtext and clues that the game offers.^[53]

Initially, the game's primary villain was named Bull, a bald and muscular man who looked similar to "a 300-pound, six-foot-tall bullmastiff dog". The graphic symbol was redesigned afterward Michael Mando auditioned for the role, every bit his physicality was very dissimilar from what the developers had planned. Bull's physical fierceness transformed into the villain's emotive and volatile personality. A second iteration of the grapheme was named Pyro and featured a heavily mutilated body, though such features were later removed as Mando's portrayal of Vaas enabled his personality to be expressed through subtle mannerisms. The squad envisioned him to exist a mannerly but menacing villain.^[54] Hay compared Vaas to Darth Vader, in which his presence is ofttimes short and brief, yet when he appears, he catches attention and galvanizes players' memories.^[55] Hay described Vaas as a character that was "very much in your face", which helped cemented Jason's early on status as a "victim".^[56] Yohalem added that Vaas'southward death at the game's midpoint was inspired by the novel To the Lighthouse, in which the protagonist died midway through the story and the rest of the plot explores her absence.^[32] To create nuanced characters, the team utilized move capture so that actors could convey more-complicated emotions on-screen.^[57] Enemies are controlled by AI which was designed to be believable, such equally when untrained enemies would brand mistakes during combat.^[58] Elias Toufexis initially was chosen to voice Jason Brody, though he was replaced past Gianpaolo Venuta two years later.^[59]

Multiplayer [edit]

Massive Amusement handled the game's multiplayer development. According to David Polfeldt, the managing managing director of Massive, the team was involved at the early on stage of development and the opportunity helped diversify their portfolio, equally the team had but had experience working on real-time strategy games like World in Conflict.^[33] Magnus Jensen, the multiplayer portion's creative director, stated that the multiplayer carries the theme of insanity from the unmarried-player. To accomplish this, the competitive multiplayer allows players to use supernatural elements to combat enemies, while the cooperative multiplayer features characters that are "equally unhinged equally any of the characters" in the unmarried-player manner.^[60] The multiplayer was also said to include elements normally plant in independent games and social games.^[61]

Legacy [edit]

The game's success helped elevate the franchise'due south status, which is at present viewed as a blockbuster series with a strong identity.^[117] Dom Peppiatt from GamesRadar wrote that Far Cry 3 and its expansion Blood Dragon helped cement Ubisoft'southward domination in the open-earth showtime-person shooter genres and its position every bit both a developer and publisher.^[118] Many features from Far Cry three, such as the presence of towers and wildlife hunting, were later used in other Ubisoft non-Far Cry games.^[119]

Ubisoft initially planned to make a direct-narrative sequel to Far Cry 3, which involved the return of Jason every bit the game's protagonist and other supporting characters and the resurrection of Vaas. The plan was rapidly abandoned.^[120] A sequel, Far Cry 4, set in the Himalayas region, was released on November xviii, 2014, for Windows, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox I. It features a new cast of characters and a new map.^[121]
