Far Cry 2 Headquarters

When a breeze picks up, you will see the trees move in the direction of the wind. If you kick up some dust, you will see the wind grab hold of it and carry it off in the appropriate direction where it will disperse accordingly. Weather changes are dynamic and the wind doesn’t always come from the same direction. This attention to detail is found in every aspect of Far Cry 2 and it contributes greatly to the believability of the world that the Ubisoft Montreal team has created for the game.

The game also puts a focus on the relationships your character develops over the course of the single-player campaign, allowing you to choose which characters you want to befriend and join on missions. Unlike other games, however, if one of your allies dies in a mission (which may or may not happen, again tying in to the realistic-simulation idea), he or she is dead, and you won't see him or her in the rest of the game.
