A few scenes later, in the Fly South scenario, there was no way I could even get on the plane without Willis dying. Far too many attackers, even in GodMode. Lousy planning by the UbiSoft team. I hate using cheats but when even with the lowest player level and GodMode one cannot advance, it's time to throw in the towel. So, while Far Cry 4 sounds great, you can be sure I won't be buying it.

    Sad, but I won't waste any more money on a game I can't play.
    I agree that the "protect" parts suck.. And other bottle neck "story line" missions that force you into some situation that makes game-play very linear and sometimes frustrating until you pass that point in the game.

    I also hate "quick-time events" where you must "mash spacebar" or hit "right mouse", then "e", the "right shift" (example) within a second or so to kill an enemy. It is just stupid. This open world type game doesn't need that stuff. Still, even with all of that, this is still one of my favorite all-time games, especially when modded with Ziggy's mod.

    Ubi would be very smart to open up modding of the single player game. They would sell more copies.

    It could have been!

    First of all the obvious PC port from console is a clear lack of disregard.
    Second is the keyboard mapping really sucks as a lefty who prefers mapping the arrows and all the keys around them for game play.

    And the key mash... I have to remap to default keyboard on some missions as the game will not accept remapping on some parts of the missions.

    Reach the helicopter? No weapons and it auto resets game play to a higher level of ridiculous difficulty.
    No more ubisoft for me...to damn frustrating... games should be fun...not make you want to smash someone!
    And vASS would not last a minute in real life.

    Yo my friend, the game came out in 2012. Give them credit where its due, it was impressive both graphically and technologically for that era of gaming. Still looks great now with Reshade, makes it up to par with AAA 2016 titles if you ask me. No more ubisoft games? Who cares. We're still gunna play and buy them, because they are great 90% of the time. I've been here since Rayman on the ps1. Ubisoft are better than the rest of these company's at the moment, if u wanna throw them all in a bucket and compare.

    A question please...

    Great to hear about the success of Far Cry 3. I never did get very far into the game. I have a PC copy on DVD-ROM and I now have a lot more storage on my new laptop and no DVD drive, is there a way I can download Far Cry 3 using my existing Install Keycode?

    Thanks, Bill.

    Hey wnhac, you can try inputting that Keycode into Uplay in order to digitally activate the game. But if that doesn't work please reach out to Ubisoft Support for more specialized assistance regarding your Install Keycode.

    Future Far Cry game Idea...

    Hi there
    Let me start off by saying that I am a big fan of the Far Cry series and have played from (1-5) and have enjoyed every one. Although the mutants in the first were strange and difficult.

    However, this post isn't about that. It's more of a request/proposition.

    I would humbly like to ask if Ubisoft could re-engineer a new Far Cry, but with elements of previous games in the series, if its possible.

    A new African jungle setting, maybe the Democratic republic of Congo, with updated graphics and AI with new, more accurate wildlife behavior along with updated graphics and general interactive elements from the newer Far Cry games and weapon damage according to ammunition specifications...

    Likes and dislikes:

    FC2 ; The Africa setting was awesome with the terrorist encounters and risk of diseases and damaged weapons. The environment was brilliant.
    The downside is that the graphics and animations are a little outdated now in 2020.

    FC3 ; This game remains my favorite. A complete overhaul of weaponry, transportation and wildlife along with STUNNING graphics and lush, vibrant tropical landscape which had me running through the jungle endlessly, completely amazed by the beauty and attention to detail.

    FC4 ; The Kyrat setting was also beautiful. The Himalayas in the background with rolling hills is gorgeous, however the environment lacks color a little. The vegetation and landscape is somewhat repetitive and dull. In my opinion, which barely matters most probably, it could have looked even better with more colorful and vibrant environment and landscape.
    Another point is that almost everything, including the mad pedestrians in their vehicles on the road, want to kill you. It makes sense with the bigger predators e.g. Tigers, bears, crocodiles and maybe wolves. However, realistically the smaller predators such as the dhole, clouded leopard, bald eagle, and demon fish would generally avoid people unless provoked or wounded.
    I like how air travel and grappling to a cliffside along with the auto drive feature were added and it definitely made Far Cry life more convenient.

    FC5 ; Amazing. Got the vibrance and beautiful cinematic environment, outstanding weapon advancements such as bullet drop, diversity, customization and damage.
    The diversity of vehicles is great. Still, almost every wild animal wants you dead. Damn those turkeys...

    Anyway...
    Your games are awesome
    Thank you to everyone who helped with development. You are all amazing!
