    Will they bring back animations?

    In FC5 they really dumbed down everything you do, there use to be an animation for almost all your actions. Will they bring that back, also see they brought back knife kills, but the big question is will they bring back vehicle takedowns and melee drag?

    I was glad to see knife takedowns again, but am not holding my breath on vehicle, grenade or drag takedowns being brought back let alone any actual new takedown types... Would love if they did any of those things though!

    I'd just like to see more healing animations brought back. FC5 was definitely a step-down from 4 in that respect.

    Oh... I liked the animations of FC5 and I was not aware that FC4 had even better ones or more of them. I only played FC5.
    But yeah, if FC4 had even better ones or more of them ... I just claim liking them, even without knowing them

    If they decide to bring back healing animations....it should be "leveling". When we are walking through the intense fighting scene, in the games, what is important for us for not to die? Time, speed of our actions, every second is important. Bullets don't wait. One,two, three......pouring like rain. The faster you heal yourself the more chances you have to survive. And so with every action and movement. Speed of healing should be upgradable. From slow to fast. In the beginning we are unexperienced, awkward in this new world. Weapons' loading, running, healing.... are slow. But step by step we get used to this world - our experience grows. We are more sophisticated. We are faster. Is it realistic? Yes. The more we do something the more effectively we do it. The less energy we waste to achive the result, the faster we are. So if you are lazy to upgrade healing - heal yourself "half an hour"! I don't think you will like it during intense shooting. Agility always matter.

    As am I, I just hope there are multiple knives to choose from as well, since we had a multitude of melee weapons, I'd like to see a similar variety for our knives.

    I seriously miss the old animations from the previous Far cry’s. I love the new brutal knife takedowns, and I’d love it even more to see new takedowns and old takedowns that they took out from previous games.

    The more new animations they have and the fewer they re-use from previous iterations the better imo. I think that if the protagonist is someone new, they shouldn't re-use any animations as 2 different people would perform even the same actions slightly differently. I want to see new reload animations, new takedown animations, new everything. I was really annoyed that FC4 recycled so many animations, so I just want more new ones, as many as possible.

    I think given the new setting of FCND, vehicle takedowns are sort of essential. C’mon Mad Max style post apocalyptic wasteland? Ubisoft could take advantage of this or really miss the point of these FC spin offs like they have been. As for melee drag, I’m not too sure why they took that out in the first place. I agree it should be reintegrated into the FC games.
