Flashing corpses. Seriously, who was the genius who thought that it would be a good idea for dead bad guys to start flashing yellow in the midst of their death animations? Or at all? It looks ******ed. I could -almost- forgive all of the other immersion-killing elements if it wasn't for this. I find myself looking elsewhere on the screen when I kill an enemy just so that it doesn't piss me off.
Oh and flashing plants? Despite the fact that there is a massive red leaf on my minimap and an enormous, obvious red plant in front of me in a clearing, someone thought that players might need a little more help to find plants for crafting. As if we wouldn't make some effort to find them if we were absolutely desperate to craft syringes. The minimap isn't too bad but I'd still really like to be rid of it.
I can't wait for the patch that gives me the option of removing these things because otherwise I think that this game is great!
I haven't played a great deal so far, I have uncovered three areas (taken 3 towers) so I am not that far into the game. Everything looks incredible I must say. The dev team have really gone to town on making a great living dynamic world with stunning scenery. The game plays very well, I have all settings maxed (ultra) on my PC and getting around 40fps steadily which is playable. This is running on a i7 2700k with a GTX480 graphics card. One thing I have been made aware of which I didn't notice at first was the shadowy glow effect of the npc's in the game. This is a Physx property I believe that can be removed by editing the SSAO setting in the GamerProfile File in the Far Cry 3 folder in My Documents. However, this removes some of the effects from the game and it just doesn't look as good. Maybe this is something that can be addressed in a future update. The NPC's just don't look right and you can see it even more when it becomes night, it's just weird. Another thing that gets really annoying is when you tab out of game on the PC and you are running in Fullscreen mode, when you maximize the game it turns into Windowed mode all by itself! So then I have to go back into the settings and change it back to Fullscreen. There are always various reasons why I need to just tab out and do something else for a minute while I am in game and this just gets annoying. Another little thing would be that you cannot set a keybind to open your inventory or bag. Instead you are consigned to the very tedious approach of pressing escape and then clicking the option from the menu. It just wastes time. The same goes for the skills page etc. All it needs is an option in the keybind menu to be able to add a button to bring these up. Can't think of anything else that's really outstanding at the moment although I did see some allie NPC's in the game trying run each other over with a Jeep! It looked like this guy was trying out some Carmageddon style on his own men! It looked like a bug anyway. That is all!
Your ideas are really good!Originally Posted by cuzImKNOWLEDGE Go to original post
FarCry3 SP is an awesome game... very fun and looks amazing.
The problem is that there are WAY TOO MANY immersion-killing features in the game as mentioned in this thread. Flashing plants, flashing dead bodies, stupid pop-up boxes that can never be turned off, etc. I want to turn all that stuff off INDEPENDENTLY.
U-play is downloading data very slowly today, it takes forever for the game to switch from playing the game to the main menu- waiting for updated data which seems like it's on dial-up but I have a 30mbps connection. It hasn't done this before.
OOPS- this was meant for PC version..

My feedback is the games epic ... One thing that ticks me off though is you can't drag bodies that are lying on the ground. It would be really useful if this would be added.
This game is epic.... but dont settle!! PUSH IT BOYS!!
and hell ya erdox2000 draging bodies that are already dead on the ground is most important!!
how bout random off duty rebels chilling drinking/smoking at these random shacks that are everywhere.....
not always, not every one... but sometimes , randomly
did i say zipline arrow.... aka make your own zipline.... 1 time use
how about an arrow on a rope... so i can shoot people in the head and then drag the bodies away... LOL
weapons should be on the d pad and the stupid syringes should be on the hold LB ... its too hard to change weapons while running in chaos...
snorkel kit for the jeep
and please can i have button layout customizability!!
all i want is to switch the functions of B and click RS !! PLEASE

handgliders ability to go up
handgliders on a truck
2 and 4 person oper world multiplay co op
shoot one handed guns while driving
switch to passenger and shoot any gun
homie taxi service, you run in from of them, they stop , you get in, the map comes up,
you click here, they drive there... you shoot from passenger
If any game devs are reading this and want me to say everything i love, just let me know....
The single player is an Awesome game so far, but I find the Map Editor feels like its more a Multiplayer editor than a Single player editor.
Single player Map Editor:
1. How do we play our single player maps when we are done making the map?
2. How do we put our player in a certain spot?
3. Doesn't seem like theres any way of shareing our singplayer maps
4. Where is the camera? sure theres a camera, but no way to use the camera.
5. The weather doesn't work right, because when you have it rain theres only one little area it rains at.
I basically feel like the Map Editor was way more focused on the Multiplayer than was the Single Player.
make a lobby system, so i can invite my friends to my lobby so we can join a multiplayer match together.....
when i scare some wild animals it should alert soliders if they can here it...
if i take down a soldier and drag him into the water, i want a shark to eat him....
and it to spread blood everywhere
if i take down soldiers on a dock from in the water i want the bodies to at least maybe fall in the water...
instead of just crumpling...
really i would just like to move any body, any time...
i would like the blues not to react so harshly if one accidently gets shot.... you have to kill 2 blues before they stat to kill you..
you had better be able to make co op missions " " in the map editor to play with your friends... i didnt look yet, but people are complaining...
make a place to share maps, multiplayer and co op based..
could we get hardcore modes in multiplayer, no hud, no kill cam .........
did i say online open world co op multiplayer, whatever..
i want to hunt, play poker, do trials, outposts, drive by people with my friends!
ai should not be able to see bodies in the water so easily...
or bodies in shadowy places, or bodies in bushes...
could i cut up the bodies and put them in garbage bags by the road and have the ai not know they are bodies..
and some garbage collection so the bags dont stack up.. lol
it would be cool if when you killed someone the body didnt go away until the night..
when the animals eat them..
are you for scuba? harpoon.. i saw someone said this.. awesome... underwater flare...
gas can... oil can ... lflare gun/lighter = fire on land or fire on water..
or light a fire trail to a building or ammo pile from a safe distance...
make fire arrows better..
more more more
ps im an only child
your multiplayer is GARBAGE......!!! why would you even try to compete in this sector.........
you should have killed multiplayer and made 4 player co op open world......
EPIC FAIL
i wont get over it... should be cut up. put in a bag, out on the curb, early in the morning
... if you hold the rock button, you should clap or whistle or something......
