    The waiting is the hardest part FC6

    I'm a PC gamer.. mostly combat flight sims and Racing sims.
    BUT of all the "shooter" type games I only play "offline" and only like Far Cry's and second to that Wolfenstein's, then Crysis.. I have tried the demo's of others and they have never drawn me in.. especially those with too much RPG crap going on.. and if bad graphics I leave immediately..

    I've been a Fan of and Playing Far Cry's since FC1

    It was nice having the DLC's for 5 as they gave new gameplay and more fc...

    New Dawn was a Very good stand alone half price almost add-on finish to the FC5 story...

    Yes 5 and ND had some changes that REALLY sucked.. BUT.... not going into that, not what this tread is about..

    The long wait between 4 and 5 for development was tough ... ( I ignored Primal it was no where near a FC game)

    Then finally we got 5 and for the "most part" I think it was the best so far, then a little while the add-ons.. then in a year FC ND

    I got spoiled.. getting so much Far Cry in relatively so little time between the releases...

    Now I sit bored after more play-throughs than I care to admit on all of them knowing we "Might" get lucky and get the next one within 3 years..

    I really wish they could release some smaller incremental DLC in the interim just to make the wait not as bad LOL

    replaying all the games 1~ND,, or resetting out posts.. or redoing the excursions depending on 5 or ND does not give me what I crave along with the action....
    a new interesting story to follow and find the outcome of.

    We get Breakpoint in October, so that's going to help.

    In the meantime you could always try Wildlands. It's no FC5, but it's decent enough to kill a few months until Breakpoint is released.

    If you like playing Far Cry 5's DLCs, then I'm sure you will like the Arcade. People are making single player and multiplayer maps everyday, and there's a lot of quality content from the community. If you played Far Cry Instincts on the original Xbox, all of the user made maps, even abysmal creations, always made the game fresh and new. There's an entire community dedicated to the map editor. Since you mentioned you play offline, both Far Cry 4 and 5 have user made single player maps. If you avoid the mediocre creations, I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Ever since the Dead Living Zombies DLC came out, there are a lot zombie maps. Zombie maps whether you're fighting angels from story mode or actual zombies from the DLC.

    I just looked up Breakpoint .. and as i thought it's an Online game.. I play offline for many reasons.. mainly I like to just follow a story, and not have to put up with some of the idiots online. tried Wildlands demo.. to me the GFX sucked and the game play lame too much RPG.. but thats just MOHO ..

    There is a new Wolfinstein coming out soon.. but its kind of like what New Dawn was for FC5 a smaller second part to the story of New Colossus and has new characters.. his kids.. not him.... and though wolfs are fun they are by noo means an open world Far Cry..
    A new Crysis would be kind of nice but they are Sci-Fi.. not my fav.... I wish there would be "something" First person, open world with as good of GFX as FC, the same type guns ect.. and good or decent story and game play.and no overly RPG stuff more than FC 4 or 5 had.. I also have COD WW2.. it was ok for one playthrough. ... an open world version of a new Half Life would not be bad I have all of the previous ones of them too..

    As for console you mention as i said I play high end gaming PC's... I have to for the actual simulator combat flight and racing games I play the most.. and those I do or will play online every now and then...
    And yes I have also played a lot of the maps in arcade... they can be fun.. but again not actually a new story per-se ... I know it is not possible to put out a good new title real fast.. just was mentioning that it does suck waiting.. LOL

    I know you mentioned PC. I'm just saying if you did. I have PC myself and I often use steam and battle.net
