    Rip off

    £38 for half a game, what a total RIP OFF. I used to like farcry but now its turning into a game that feels like that crappy kids game fortnight. Expeditions is like some version of capture the flag. Driving cars is crap as you cant see where you're going. Being forced to listen to the crap old music in your outposts with no way to change it. Your companions are dumb as s#!÷ and die every 5 minutes.
    I WILL NOT BE BUYING FARCRY GAMES AGAIN. I CAN SEE THEY'RE GONNA TURN INTO A FORTNIGHT TYPE OF GAME FULL OF KIDS AND PEADOS

    I was trying to kill Ethan with the standard Blunderbuss at 115 DMG with no luck and upgraded it to 156 DMG and I killed him on the first go. I play on the tough level. Somone posted somewhere that they completed the game in a day. I find that hard to believe as it took me 29hrs to kill the twins and Ethan.

    They were posted here a lot. Far Cry 5 has just been released,10-12 hours ago, and they are writing - "I've finished the game. What a lousy game!" or "Cash grabbers, this is my last Far Cry!". How is it possible to finish big, open world game, in such a short period of time!? It's impossible! It's called speedrun but not walkthrough! To taste the game fully needs many days, weeks and may be months. Running through the storyline and main missions is the last thing to do in open world game. World itself is important, its life, atmosphere, people, interaction, notes, additional information from the locals, side quests....Only having lived in this world you can make at least some judgement! But not just rushing through the main missions. It's called - game killing! Open world killing. Open World and its experience - is the basis. And for me, opinion of the game-killers can't be taken seriously. Good game is only one side of the coin, the other side - is your good and right walkthrough.

    Try explosive arrows on him. 2400 DMG per shot.

    I've not played this game and don't know anything about how the story goes or what the different mechanics are actually like, but absolutely nothing about anything I know of the game indicates that it is anything like fortnite.

    As to the original poster they are just a troll and keyboard warrior.

    It's $40 for a continuation of an excellent game, what's not to like. I just downloaded it a couple of days ago and am having a ton of fun so far. Did you even play Far Cry 5??

    I do agree that the vehicle views need to be changed, at least in 4 wheel drive ones.

    My companions fight just fine as long as I'm not directly them into a line of fire.

    I like the settlement progression system as well as the challenges which are easier to follow in the menu. All I did for 4 hours last night was mess around with the challenges in order to get skill points.

    My guess is you didn't play Far Cry 5 and you only came on here to troll, hence your first post on the forum.

    I agree. I've never understood the mentality of rushing through a campaign story like there's no tomorrow. I spent all night last night just doing challenges to get skill points. It was a ton of fun. It's the same in other games I play, Destiny, The Division, Anthem, streamers/content creators rush to get to the max level so they can do the end game stuff. I guess it makes sense for them, but damn, I can't believe its fun for them at all. OP is a troll for sure. I'm loving the story continuation so far and am about ready to meet The Father so we'll see where it goes.
