Will the cult be the real enemy; or will you find out halfway through the game they are a front for big oil/military industrial complex/Chinese big business and the heavily armored endgame units roll in?
It would be ballsy to make it a crypto Homefront sequel

Cult's there as a total distraction from an oil pipeline they want to put through some injun country.
 
So basically what I'm getting from the trailers is....

A bunch of religious cultists that bastardize the Christian religion roll into small town America interrupting the way of life of humble small town working class Americans, and a bunch of white folk with guns and a based black priest with a .44 magnum and shotgun are pissed that their way of life is being jeopardized by an outside force (Apparently the cult is from Los Angeles [Scientology, maybe? Or some kind of Scientology-esque religion?]), and decide to fight back to preserve their traditions.

I mean shit, make the cult seem Islamic and you'd basically have a Islam Invasion USA simulator. Then we'd be getting salt from the Leftist SJW cuckboi trannies.

I'm definitely going to play this game when it comes out. In February 2018... (srsly why the long wait, Ubi)

Maybe the cult is the Shemale Tranny Church led by St. Herk himself, Conald Petersen, the one and only Fedsmoker. The barren interstates of the northern midwest are his stomping grounds, after all.

I seriously hope they have a character like Fedsmoker, complete with following people around with various video cameras, audio recorders, and surveillance equipment. Hell, side missions for him could include retrieving SD cards that proves the cult's existence and crimes to the outside world. :biggrin:

Ubisoft when rushed:

There's been a slight shift in the devlopment attitudes at Ubisoft since the back end of 2015 when it finally became apparent to them the yearly release schedules (basically 18 months dev time, with alternating teams) was, while somewhat sustainable was clearly effecting their products to the point it was hurting sales and the company's reputation.

As such Ubisoft's giving their dev teams more breathing space, for now.

Either getting the full 2 years of time, or even slightly longer (There's been no new AC games since 2015 and the new one won't arrive until March 2018).

That sort of similar dev time gap gave us both Assassin's Creed II (Considered one of the best AC games and the start of the brilliant Ezio Arc) and a similar gap of four years took us from Far Cry 2, to the Vaas-madness of Far Cry 3.

Hopefully the "More Time = Good Sales" angle Ubisoft's recently adopted will hold out for a while again and we actually get good games out of them for their core IPs.
 
I should also probably point out that Ubisoft is going through this cycle of longer dev times to hopefully make a few stupid awesome games because Vivendi has been breathing down their necks for the past year and a half in an attempt to snatch the company away from the Guillemont family who founded and run most of the important strategic managerial positions.

What we're witnessing is a fight between Vivendi which founded by Napoleon III and has the largest shareholder of the Bollare family (meaning they're behind the takeover bid) versus Ubisoft and the Guillemonts.

It's an actual fucking dynastic struggle between French Aristocrat families on the stock market.

So, why the delay to 2018? To be honest, this play is fucking genius.

They plan to drop Far Cry 5 at the back end of February and then the new Assassin's Creed the month after all neatly in time to ram their stock prices way, way up for the close of the financial year.

Its both a survival strategy and a hail mary play all rolled into one. We've seen from the trailer that, actually the in-game looks relatively polished now and could have easily been kicked out the door by Q3 else Q4 of this year with a few bugs and nobody would've really cared.

They're holding off on that to shine this fucker like a diamond and then ditch it right at the time Vivendi would be casting around for more people looking to lighten their stocks around the new financial year.

They're not doing that, and the similar silence has been had over the next Assassin's Creed, indeed all we know is it's probably Eygpt, and will either be the 11th century, or we'll be Amnut or one of her colleagues.

Meaning again, shine like a diamond.

Oh, and for those of you wondering, yes, Vivendi did sue Google that's created the hideous mess of the copyright bots and all the other dodgy shit while mysteriously leaving the (French run and owned) Daily Motion alone to post copyrighted material unmolested.

Which they own.

Funny ole world, ain't it?
