Far Cry 2 is region free - you can play it on a PAL comsole.

There are many theories about getting banned and only one is 100% true: never try to play online a pre-released game. Only play it after official street date.

After reading all the AI comments on this thread, this game sounds incomplete.

Ah thank you very much mate!

How did you know about far cry 2 being region free?

The nfo says ntsc?

Is it possible to play a pal game on a ntsc console or visa versa?

Got a question :
 Spoiler:
 

BTW, road blocks are pretty annoying since soldiers keep respawning each time you pass through one...

On another hand, I had experience some random-generated events (as I told before). Am I the only one experiencing those??? Confused
 Spoiler:
 
I thought that was pretty cool Smile .

The game is region-free, PERIOD! I'm in Europe with a PAL console and I'm having a blast about it! Very Happy
NTSC/PAL is a total different shit.
RF = you can play it on your X360 wherever the fuck you live in the whole galaxy!

Its not that bad but when you kill the enemy's at an outpost and accept a mission the same enemy's are back at the outpost that is kinda annoying and not realistic. But its a nice game, i am still playing it to give a good opinion on it.

The missions on the towers are secondary missions?

If they are, where do I start the main mission?

My friend said something about needing a new firmware version or you'd get banned. he said it was something weird about the way the disc is spinning in the drive or some shit. He didn't know exactly what it was about himself, he had just read about needing 1.4 firmware or some shit (I have no clue, just what he had read). Is this true, or is the copy of far cry 2 thats out fine and safe to play on any firmware?

Bottom line is nobody knows exactly what it is that triggers the ban. i used fw1.2 for over a year online and was never banned, but others with same did, even people who NEVER played online got banned!! Confused

I've got a plan for the up and coming update though:

no1: i'm staying offline now until after the update, and see what happens to others
no2: i'm going to delete my gamertag losing alll my data
no3: format hard drive and clear the cache
no4: make sure i don't play any more early release games again

even after all that, they will probably still ban my arse Laughing

Ditto for me. I am not banned BUT. . . I have NEVER played an online game. All I do is download market stuff. Also, I have never had a burned DVD in my drive when I have logged onto live. The only time I ever even plug my ethernet cable into the machine is when I plan on buying something off the market place.
Dunno if any of that has made a difference. All I know is I am still not banned. Seems to me, they would be better off just blocking online play once your banned but allow you to purchase market place stuff. At least, that's how I would do it.
Hello Mr. Pirate. You can no longer play online. . . but if you wish to throw more money at us. . . so be it.
I guess they hope people will just buy a new console. I won't fall into that category unless mine breaks.

You can switch out drives now in the new consoles by extracting a key from your new drive, putting in your old drive, and injecting the new drive key into the replacement drive.
At least that's my understanding. In short, yes they can be modded.

From what Ive read the process requires special hardware, and can be kind of a bitch
