I hope they add some kind of virus in multiplayer too so you can have someone with the powers as in Farcry:Instincts and you have to hunt him down while he needs to escape or kill the hunting party.

This is an interesting tack taken, considering that the developers previously ruled out putting predators in the game for interesting reasons:

http://www.computerandvideo...

"The reason we decided to stay away from predators was because our animal AI is a subset of our human AI.... the problem was, if we wanted to put predators into that ecosystem we would have to balance it to make sure the lions didn't eat all the gazelles and then all starve to death."

That would make for an interesting game... if you played it long enough, then all that would be left is a bunch of big annoying cats roaming around. Hmmm.
I do hope they add it though, Id rather be on the run from some angry lions than those facepalm-inducing monkey mutants from the first.

Thats a good thing. Its Africa and we wont have the angry wild animals? Give us some lions and tigers, some elephants that are peaceful until provoked. We have guns, not like they will a big challenge.

Would be awesome, then maybe you could use it as a tactical thing, like hiding meat in a enemey camp and watchin the lions dig in at night, DO IT!.
