Far Cry Multiplayer?

Does anyone play? There doesn't seem to be that much activity. I just bought the game the other day and I am really enjoying the single player campaign and the beautiful graphics. However, the multiplayer community seems to be lacking. I haven't found any servers that are "noob friendly" and appearently my average ping of around 50 is too high for most servers. I get kicked nearly every time. Does anyone play Far Cry multiplayer or is it just no fun?

Farcry Instincts or Farcry released in 2004. Probably because everyone is playing Battlefield 2 even though almost everyone who bought has had some problems with it.

I don't play FarCry multiplayer; though I agree that the single player is awesome. I perfer to play Unreal2K4 for mulitplayer; I am actually decently good in that. Plus my pings are around 150.... going from south america to the US to play in an english server.

just took this game out again and blow off the dust. just started a dm server for it. really good graphics in this game. and a blast to play. if you want to play some dm look for my server "wolfies home". the only downside with this one theres is no auto downloading. so you have to put in the maps yourself.
what kicks ya? punkbuster?

I don't know what kicks me. On most servers, when I get in, there is a message at the bottom in red text that says "WARNING: Your average ping of __ is too high and you will be kicked within 15 seconds if it does not go down". My ping is around 50!

I'll check out your server Wolfie.

to get in servers faster so you dont have to put in your name and password all the time put this line in your target line.

"ubilogin name password" behind ...\Far Cry\Bin32\FarCry.exe"

put your name and password in the line. then when you put it in go one space and paste it in.

so it looks like this "C:\Games\Far Cry\Bin32\FarCry.exe" "ubilogin achilles fcnoob"

"(not my actual login of course ).
