- Far Cry 3 ; 4 ; 5 ; 6- Everything about our all favourite villains and heroes, Have a question about FarCry related stuff or about me? My askbox is always open -
Well, I'm gradually fighting the artblock. It's difficult. I don't always have the strength to draw, and I don't want to finish everything I draw. But then the feeling of unfairness in terms of the amount of content woke up in me again.
frankensteined together some far cry concept art to make some pinterest-esque phone wallpaper outta them to trick my brain that im experiencing the games again. feel free to join me far cry fans.
I went through the Far Cry 3 oasisstrings file, which contains all the subtitles (among other in-game text), in search of unreleased lines of dialog from the main story.
I looked at what was available in the sound files, organized all of them in separate folders, checked several gameplay videos to refresh my memory on which lines were in the game, and ended up with a list of all the dialog that, for whatever reason, didn’t make it to the final version of Far Cry 3.
In this series of posts, I’m sharing all the unreleased content I found (minus a few duplicates), even when it wasn’t very interesting, so we have a comprehensive list of the lines that were cut in each story mission.
On a side note, the oasisstrings file never says which character is speaking, so every time you see names, it’s either because the corresponding audio files were available and I know who the speaker is, or because the context made it easy to guess their identity.
Part 1: Make a Break for It
The game opens with a video of Jason and his friends having fun on vacation, but it seems this scene was originally longer. A few of the lines below are still in the game, others were cut but are still available as audio files (and can be listened to here), and the rest is completely gone.
Here’s the dialog from the long version of the “parachute” sequence from the opening cutscene:
You can also find an early version of this cinematic (without most of the dialog) here.
After the scene with Vaas and Grant getting himself and Jason out of the cage, the two brothers try to snealiky escape the camp. There could have been more dialog between them:
Wait wait.
Slow down.
Jason, we need to get past this guy. Toss a rock over there.
These guys need to go down. I'll take one, you take the other. Follow my lead.
Shh, they're sleeping inside.
Fuck.
Wait here. We need that map.
Come on, J. Pick them up.
Through here, it's all clear.
Oh god.
We're gonna get out of here, okay.
J. Check that door out over there. I'll get this one.
Lunatic.
Got it. [Psst] Over here.
C'mon.
Yeah? [As in, it had to be done]
Shh. Keep low.
Oh shit! Shit! Left, left, Left! C'mon!
Come on, come on, come on, come on!
Climb down after.
Quick, Jason. Hand me the map.
Yeah, yeah. I'm okay.
This is insane.
Shut up! Shhh!
Oh my...
What are you doing? What are you doing? I'm coming, I'm coming.
Oh God. Oh God.
Okay, okay. I'm coming. Shh!
Oh shit! Grant!
You're such a badass, dude.
Okay.
Yeah, okay.
Oh fuck, stop it.
Oh shit!
What the fuck? Stop it, shh!
When they think they’re finally safe, Grant gets shot. There used to be a short exchange between Jason (whose line can be found here) and Vaas immediately after the gunshot:
Vaas: Oh God.[Laugh] This is so dramatic.
Jason: You killed my brother, you fuck!
Vaas: You killed my brother you motherfucker [Laugh]. Vaas is so mean, huh? Really. No no, Vaas is a meanie hoo hoo.
By the way, one of Vaas’ lines (“I'm gonna give you 30 seconds and if this jungle doesn't eat you up alive, I will.[whistle] Go, go”) always gets cut in the game, but you can listen to the full version here.
Finally, Jason runs away through the forest with Vaas’ pirates after him. There originally was going to be more dialog during this sequence too, mostly from Jason, it seems:
Fuck!
Fuck!
No, no, no! No, no!
Stay away from me.
What's that?
Stay back!
Grant. I'm sorry.
Gotta keep moving.
He went through that cave!
You're dead!
No...no...
Oh God.
Come on. Come on.
I gotta get to the other side. Fast.
Shit!
He falls into the river, and the adventure truly begins.
