    Guns for Hire?

    Are Guns for Hire making a return in FAR CRY 6?



    Or is it just the Sausage dog and the Croc?

    I hope they do make a return. I enjoyed the mechanic, the AI was a bit dumb but…

    I’d also love to see other Fangs for hire, I’d like to see the proper Dog return…..

    They are not.

    Ubi appears to have determined that people went out with animals more than the people in FC5.

    And from my perspective, they were right.

    Watch Dogs Legion taught us that generic people are not as interesting as designed people.
    And FC5 taught us that designed people are not as interesting as designed animals.

    So we get animals.

    Maybe Far Cry 7 it will change again.

    I liked recruiting random people in Legion. It felt like my own team and there was a degree of satisfaction with that.

    With the design characters it just feels like the game is choosing these characters for you you don’t have any part in it.

    I just think they need to tweak that system to have more interesting and broader characters available in the general populace

    That’s rubbish about no more guns for hire.

    There’s zero squad based shooters out there these days (I really miss them!), and in a small way guns for hire scratched that itch. I appreciated the tactical opportunities they added.
