I think I'm fed up with this already. Guess I'm not in the mood for the RPG-type elements, which when illogically implemented just turn into a major immersion-breaker. I'm not half an hour out of my pampered rich-boy lifestyle - which was set up brilliantly, fair play - and already I'm skinning animals and tanning/crafting rather tasteful bespoke leather goods, without which I couldn't possibly hold another herb or weapon. The guns do sound nice, though.

I might man up and try it tonight. I nearly woke the kids up the other night when I was looking for the old knife.Originally posted by nonny View Post

I've concluded this is execrable, for me at least. Over-fussy and implausible RPG elements shoehorned into an averages FPS in a world that is much less alive, varied and beautiful than it's cracked up be. The day-night cycle is comical - almost instantaneous (GTA3 did this more convincingly almost a thousand years ago). Shockingly designed (Rorschach cards as inspiration?!) and managed UI and menus, which are also very sluggish (PS3 at least). The amount of spam they generate turns them into the game-interface equivalent of google mail. Mostly a cluster of 'exclamation marks' directing your attention to the latest witticism.Last edited by Golgo; 16-02-2013, 12:11.Comment

Coming towards the end now and it has been a blast. It has no real depth and the story is stupid but strolling into town with a grenade launcher and a handful of Molotov Cocktails like an Angel of Death is just too much fun.Comment

I have Far Cry 1, 2 and 3 on Xbox 360 (I know FC1 isn't REALLY FC1) to catch up on. Tempted to go straight in to 3 though. Will it make the others look REALLY crappy later on though?Comment

To be honest, I think this is the first Far Cry game I have played.Comment

Picked this up on the Steam Sale for cheap. Loving it so far, I've just been cruising around hunting stuff - great fun! Trying to be stealthy on my first pirate raid - stuffed up but cleaned up with my trusty AK. Combat is pretty cool cover mechanic seems to work well. I can see me putting in some serious hours into this.
Looks super sweet on my pretty useless PC. Can't believe I've missed this first time around. Another great Ubi game.Comment

I thought this was really good, and I usually hate FPS's. Nothing more satisfying than using a sniper rifle to shoot the lock off a cage and watching the once imprisoned beast tear apart the bad dudes.
Still need someone to do the co-op missions with(PS3).Comment

Funny enough I've had the 360 version since release and only started really playing it last week
really liking it

This game had one of the most unnerving vehicle crashes I've experienced in any game. Highly unlikely that I'd tank it off a cliff on a quad bike in the middle of the night in real life, but it for a split second made me think I was falling.. Ace.
good game though.Comment

Well after 101 hours I've finished the single player campaign and reached about level 30 on the online-co-op.
Really enjoyed it, this game oozes quality. Yes I did find the
a little too much, and a lot of the side quests are very samey. But in terms of an open world sandbox, I felt it hit the nail on the head. I spent a lot of the early game gathering items, hunting, exploring and levelling up. It is always funny sitting on a hill overlooking a fort and releasing a bear or tiger in the camp and watching it tear them apart through the binoculars. I had a great moment swimming in a lake when all of a sudden I was WTF!! a FRIGGIN CROC!!! Scared the hell out of me as I didn't know they were in the game
I've really had fun on the online co-op as well. Right up my street, hilarious stereo typing but I've had some classic online moments. Will definitely try and play all the way through that campaign as well.
All in all, a very, very good game - I suppose I'm it's target market. 9/10Comment
