🛈 Announcement
Greetings! Far Cry forums are now archived and accessible in read-only mode, please go to the new platform to discuss the game.

    Please allow private lobbies to be made public after a 1v1 starts.

    People could easily: Join a small group or 1v1; start the game....then allow it to fill with random players queuing for public lobby.

    As it currently stands on PC; if there aren't exactly 6 players queuing at the same time, the match will NEVER start.

    So either allow us to start a match with 2 players, in public.
    Or allow private matches to be MADE public (should the matchmaker DECIDE)

    Because it appears during the day, and sometimes during the evening...This game is dead.

    I know other people are playing, but the remaining 2-3 (Up to 6) never get their lobby...instead have to wait for people to quit.

    Since it is P2P; why can't you make public matches just start with 2 or 4 players?

    Seems like a simple 1 character change in terms of code work.

    Here is what we are up against:

    Was really hope for this in FC5. Or announcement during E3 in this direction.

    Would also help the player count in Arcade on PC, cause people are leaving.
    Mostly because TDM all the time becomes boring after while ...

    So Ubi, give us some objective gamemodes (CTF of Domination modes) to freshen up the PvP !!!

    This is even more important than lobby system at this moment ...

    +1 for more game modes

    I've been hoping at least Domination would be added. It would be perfectly fine if it would be just three objectives with a flare marker on the ground.

    Thank you very much for a great list of fixes and additions, especially the terrain related glitches and the lighting budget error! I hate to have to nag about this, but can we please get some selection tool updates next time around? Particularly a way to group/ungroup objects, and a fix for the Move Mode switching to Follow Terrain, which causes headaches trying to duplicate things like custom made props that need to maintain alignment (walls, floors and dummy doors made of Generic Objects for example)

    What's this about? You're saying that even with Follow Terrain turned OFF in the Editor Settings, the copied objects still follow/snap to the terrain?

    I have had this happen constantly since the last update. Sometimes when you select an object to duplicate it, it will jump to Follow terrain, which shifts the object you're duplicating. It both wrecks the placement of the original object and, if you're trying to precisely move the duplicated object, pulls it out of line, which against the point to begin with.

    You'd have to go back to the origins to find what you're looking for.

    Because the swimming issue is a bug, while the camera snapping to pivot is how it was designed, I'm guessing.

    The feature is working, but it probably doesn't do what you expect. When you paint the terrain (with either texture or adding vegetation) and you have that setting to Off, the camera will remain still even if you paint outside of the screen.

    Maybe the servers are not fully functioning right now, but I went to play arcade solo, new maps showed up right away.. which is good... but when I pressed filter it gave me the red horn error every time. So I can not load any maps in any category... anyone else having this problem??

    the information on the camera auto scroll option says "when enabled the camera will make sure the cursor allways stays within your viewing area when an operation occurs! It doesnt say only textures or terain editing, that means it should apply to any operation, so it must be a bug or the information on the tool is incorrect and needs correcting and a new option to disable the camera fom snapping to pivot object point needs to be added.
