The XP system is definitely better in terms of flow of gameplay and challenges would be more of an incentive than a necessity. The way Far Cry Arcade functions in Far Cry 5 is dependent on leveling up, and every specified level grants you a perk point.
I like it when it was more rewarding when you gain more experience from performing takedowns than shooting everybody in the head with a sniper rifle from afar.

Huang is rather interesting person.
I think Far Cry can integrate him in one of its funny missions.
Something like - "The Rage of Juan", "Juan's revenge" or "Sell your soul (mommy) for RTX 4090!"
Some mission with famous, among gamers, person.
Without insulting or mockering.
I don't think he will be against to see himself in one of the popular game.
A popular person in a popular game!
Lisa also can be a part of the story.....

We're all part of that battle.
All gamers are somehow related to that.
Exception, may be, people who only use consoles for video-games all their life, since childhood.
But most gamers also use PC.
If they use PC...... they couldn't help but think every few years about videocard upgrading.
NVIDIA VS AMD.
Every side has its pluses and minuses.
Price, drivers, power consumption, features.....
Constant battle is going on.
Far Cry players are also involved in that stand-off.
They also face it, in one way or another.
Nvidia vs Amd, greens vs reds.
Most of Far Cry players have that Headache every few years.
Videocard and PC upgrading.
Nvidia vs Amd - is close for those who play Far Cry.
Why not to show it somehow in the game?!
May be with hints, indirectly or with trolling.
Nvidia vs Amd, Huang vs Lisa..... or just Huang in one of funny missions.

Well, I'm far from making huge requests since most of them doesn't really occur in the final game (still - I remember requesting eagles for FC4 with a video showing how they can hunt and drop their prey off cliffs - it could have already been devs plan, not my request which made it to the game, but gives me some hope)
I'd simply like cars to be able to ride faster with some ability to powerslide - this was always a letdown for me that I couldn't have too much fun driving when everything in plot is done.
I'd also love two tweaks in the editor - first, to be able to use custom models (I tried to use editor to simulate my future home and land layout to see how large it is, bacause editor was the simplest solution, but with no real success - building in the editor is a pain in the*ss compared to model it in CAD and import
Oh, a microgun (M556) would be a nice addition.
Waiting for the game...

Great subject/thread. Hope Ubisoft is taking notes.
First of all one of my older wishes for the future of FC almost comes true with this thread itself. As I wished about 2.5 years ago : I really hope the community will get bigger and more creative . I’m looking forward to read and participate in forum topics about suggestions on how to make Far Cry genre great again , when the time is right . I also hope Ubisoft is checking from time to time to what the community has to say about the future of the game and its constructive criticism. https://forums.ubisoft.com/showthrea...l-survey/page6
Second after reading almost all the posts on this particular thread I have to say I totally agree with the following suggestions of other forum members
@WildCassowary meaningful economy that makes you keep looking for cash
@Unsaneboi Some of those guns feel too New Dawnish (my notes: in the upcomming FC6 which is something that I kinda dislike too) - jets or at least more types of aircraft are a must - There should be more weapons that are rare to find and are given a sense of value
@ password1234xxx More weather effects, with influence on the worlds physics - Would be great to push the weather aspect; including some "dangerous" components like storms - Rare and beautiful weather phenomenon like rainbows or auroral lights; a bit like "easter-eggs"
@ Fallen-Champ having a weather setting where it is dynamic with the time of day changing, allow for clouds to form / storm / rain / that kind of thing, also having clouds move in real time and shadows move.
@ password1234xxx
I would give the game more options in the option menu if we talk over gameplay:
1. Jamming guns: Yes/No
2. Autolooting: Yes/No
3. Tag enemies: Yes/No
@ GameGuru2018 .I think Death must be Punishable in the game. - Enemies must suprisingly attack us!
@ Borkaman87 fix the spawning and despawning of situations, npcs, animals, vehicles etc. Enemies can appear out of thin air sometimes
@ Gr4nt8r0dy Hurk has become eye rollingly annoying no longer really funny because you can tell with every line he says they are trying to make the player laugh
@ KrayZee_ Like in Far Cry 4, allow the opposing force to attack a liberated outpost - snowboarding in cold climates with snow - Bring back Fortresses from Far Cry 4 and Primal - Bring back signature weapons from Far Cry 3 and 4. Possibly even hiding them in the open world - Bring back tiered enemies-allow players to carry multiple Machetes, Kukris, Japanese Tantos, Butterfly Knives, Dragon Blades and Shards
as for my own wish list ,for future FC games ,in general it mostly involves fixing issues I had with FC5 which was the 1st game of the series that I almost disliked and can be found in an older post of mine : https://forums.ubisoft.com/showthrea...arCry-5/page10
But to recap and update my wish list
1)Nudity . I remember discussing this again and again https://forums.ubisoft.com/showthrea...1881311-Nudity . Kinda strange that its not in more peoples wish-lists.
2) Enemies . Definitely greater variety of enemies (models/graphics) with diversity in their way of fighting (speed ,behavior,element of surprise, animations ) and guns they re using . Both human and animals. Even environmental !!! Perhaps include sub-bosses or duelists.
3)Mechanical parts (guns/planes/vehicles/boats etc) Hoping for fully customizable fighter jet plane / hellicopter/ tank in the future F.C games , fighting against different level of enemy ones ,plus A.I counter measures. As for guns ,it is what it is . I believe only if the next titles are more millitaristic/special forces type of games or more melee focused like FC Primal ,Vermitide we could see -more special weapons+ greater guns variety
4) Add base/home building . It would be cool to built your own upgade -able +defend-able base , with some NPCs and animals (ie guard dogs) of your choosing and defend it from time to time.
5) Story. I hope FC titles wont become comedies but go a more “serius” ,grim ,dark root. I also like to have an “escapist” feeling and relax while playing the game without it reminding me of politics or the current world order…
6) Notes/Lore/Easter Eggs , Collectibles.The more the better but only if the notes ,found in various locations , would lead to actual in game events or try to create some kind of lore for a greater event-mission-puzzle. Otherwise its just a waste of time reading them .
7)Music :have an off option. No need for a soundtrack when you re in nature. I much prefer the ambient nature sounds.
8) )Outfit -Outlook Customization. I dont believe it is needed in a FPS game. In fact (to connect my current thoughts with the nudity aspect) I would rather get to fully customize a second person whom I could actually see -lets say my lover/wanna be lover- that would take part in the main missions ,trying to save -assist her/him and in return get “rewarded” with lets say a cut scene or two. The level of LEGAL customization would again be endless , varying from Citra Talugmai to Vera Moray !!!! There would also be thousands of different videos, of those particular missions/cutscenes , from different youtubers providing hours uppon hours of Far Cry watchable content and of course lots of free advertisment for Ubisoft
9) Leveling Up-progression system. I believe it should not bypass the need to upgrade your gear ,collect perks , money etc. There must be certain meaningful and perhaps difficult achievements before you can level up so they don’t become easier and meaningless if you manage to upgrade through alternative easier ways .
10) Missions : Greater variety. Stealth , Co Op , Guns Blazing , land , air , sea, Survive, Defend , Escape ,Extract , Protect , Escort ,Steal , Clean Hands , Haunting rare/dangerous animals etc
11)Enemy free regions to relax , go fishing, go haunting etc

Nudity is not necessary unless it's part of an artist's vision and direction that would be an important narrative to the storyline. There's no reason to request nudity especially since there was no explicit nudity in any Far Cry game from 2004 to 2008. Far Cry 3 is the first Far Cry game to have nudity. Faith is not designed to seduce players, her role is to brainwash you into the cult. There are women in bikini and underwear in Far Cry 1 and Far Cry Instincts Evolution but it only lasted between 30 to 40 seconds in their respective cutscenes.Originally Posted by ApostolizApo Go to original post
Far Cry 5 and New Dawn are actually far more serious and grim than older Far Cry games. Only Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon is primarily focused on comedy. The silliness in Far Cry 3, Far Cry 4, Far Cry Primal, Far Cry 5 and Far Cry New Dawn are merely comic relief that are mostly seen in side missions. There's nothing comedic about Colonel Crowe, Dr. Krieger, Doyle (FC1), Semeru, Prosper Kouassi, Oliver Tambossa, Leon Gakumba, Addi Mbantuwe, The Jackal, Buck, Vaas, Hoyt, Ship Captain, Paul 'De Pleur' Harmon, Noore Najjar, Yuma Lau, Pagan Min, Amita, Sabal, Ull, Batari, John Seed, Jacob Seed, Faith Seed, Joseph Seed, Mickey, Lou and Ethan Seed. I only listed them just to emphasize my point.
Character customization is introduced in Far Cry 5 and New Dawn because of two things:
1. Co-op
2. Multiplayer
If you play Far Cry Arcade, everyone will be playing as their own customized Deputy. Far Cry 6 will also allow you to choose gender and customize your outfit, so that means multiplayer is coming back.

Well I m not saying that theres need for all the above to be in the game , I m just saying they are on my wishlist.
I believe FC 5 was the less serius of any FC game (only played FC3-not Blodd Dragon- and the later) full of uneseccery, even intrusive, lines-jokes or even side-misiions (having to collect bull testicles!!!! com on...) . I even found silly most of the acting i.e Greg Bryk trying to be Matthew McConaughey in True Detective!!!!!
Never played multiplayer in FC and rarely used the Arcade mode so i believe you're definetly right that character customization is needed for those scenarios.

Well... hello. Against the the main story, that comedy sum of Testy Festy and the other crazy side quests ammounts to quite a small portion. The main plot is True Detective times five afterall. However, main story would likely withstand comedy reliefs better with a more credible story ending. A story that flexibly accounts for how you reach the story sections would make the overall experience feel far more personal- thus more immersion and room for comedy relief. If the main experience isn't compelling enough, even the briefest sillyness can be annoying. FC5 balanced it well overall- though the sudden herding of all your friends from all the corners of the COMPLETELY retaken county
