      @Freesmart We don't. I probably will never buy a new far cry ever again. We just want our franchise back. Instead of having this wannabe of just cause, and other games. We want it to have the old far cry identity, instead of this new one. Far cry was more then just some villian on an island somewhere. Now the only reason you know a far cry game is a far cry game is because you have the exact same stuff as previous entries. So what is the problem then? The way they bring it all together changes the game drastically. It is like they don't understand what made far cry far cry to begin with. What's worse it seems they don't care. I hope you could at least understand why we want something we love back. Especially when it can still go places. I played 5, and it isn't far cry. Why even have it. It feels like it was meant as a multi-player game to begin with, and not single player. It doesn't even do that well, and ends up being mediocre all around. Why bother making it like that? Instead they should have just made it an offshoot of the franchise, so that they could just more heavily focus on the crazy shit.

      @kvdrr 2 года назад +28

      Far Cry 2 perfectly portrayed the cynical use of ideologies for your own gain, the illusion of choice (US two-party system, one of the characters even quoted US politician directly). The only good characters are the journalist (symbol of following the truth at all costs and staying in touch with reality), the underground (humanitarianism) and Jackal who frequently quoted Friedrich Nietzsche (symbol of how moral nihilism is more intellectually honest - truthful - than ideological hypocrisy). You feel alienated throughout the whole game, and The Truth is your only friend in the end. You'd like to think that staying loyal to an ideology is a good thing, but that's a far cry from reality. You know that the writing is good when you can use the title itself when interpreting the story.

    I like the aesthetic, but I really hate how every game needs enemy healthbars and levels now. If it's not an MMORPG or MMOFPS, the game should just let you shoot guns at enemies without having to worry about HP.
    This is what made Far Cry 2 feel so gritty and heavy. Gunplay felt realistic, enemies reacted to you shooting them, bullets felt like bullets and less like polite suggestions for the enemies to lower their health a bit, enemies would drag comrades into cover if they got shot and got incapacitated.
    Idunno, it just felt a lot more real.

    One thing that stressed me out a lot with this game is the coop friendship circle of doom. Having to stay within a certain radius of each other. Its legit smaller than most of the bases, feels like you're joined at the hip. Takes away so many sandboxy options, you can't approach from different angles, cant have one person being overwatch with a sniper or providing air support with a plane. Not without being within 200 meters of each other, which feels tiny. Can't have one person go find a vehicle and the other work crowd control in bad situations, or persue an objective if the other is pinned down.
    The game just doesn't feel like its been designed very well for coop, feels more like a lazy addition they implemented at the end.

      Yeah, but that takes the fun out of it. What I love is having the option of stealth or loud and proud, in 6 it really feels like stealth is just forced, and though it's challenging, it gets long and boring. Sometimes you just wanna pop in with a helicopter and go blasting.

    I really wish they'd catch the hints and blend the elements back in that made Farcry 2 and 3 so good. FC2 was a lot more hardcore with its navigation, and vehicles were often a valuable resource in certain areas that could cause problems if you lost it- plus the exploration and open-world factor of FC2 was pretty good, they didn't hold your hand and you could progress the story at your own pace and your choices mattered somewhat- that being said, it was still flawed in some respects, but I will hold a special place for FC2. Speaking of FC3, although some might not agree, it was a lot of fun hunting particularly dangerous animals and having to get creative so you could upgrade your stuff. If they could blend some of the (well done) hardcore aspects of FC2 with some of the progression system of FC3, that'd probably make for an above-decent Farcry game.
    Regardless, it just seems like they're grasping at straws with how to spice up their game and are just throwing new stuff in without much thought to try and draw new people in. If they make an FC7, it's gonna have to be radically different in a lot of areas to hold my attention... the outposts system is so outdated and boring, it would be really cool if they would update this most of all as it's one of the more sorely boring parts of the FC series since FC3.

      The story man.

Far Cry 2 was made in times when corporate psychopaths weren't aware that their employees were trashing on them covertly via story telling. They hire dumb storywriters these days to keep people asleep, most people don't know how to interpret stories anyway.

Never expected anything more then a paint by numbers Far Cry game, which equates to good, dumb fun for me personally, but being a fan of the whole 'banana republic' setting in games like Just Cause and Tropico.adds just enough of an edge for me to keep me keen on this one.

      I agree. I never thought the far cry games were particularly ground breaking (certainly not in story, although 3 was pretty good), I’ve always enjoyed far cry games for the fun, mindless action. Yeah, it would of course be nice if they actually polished things more and made more compelling stories, but I’ve grown to look at far cry games as games about having fun with the different vehicles and guns and not so much about caring about the story.

      Everyone hates on FC2's weapon condition system, but it was pretty awesome I think. I played FC2 quite a lot, and didn't ever feel like it was a massive hindrance, instead offering up the occasional "holy crap" moment, sometimes making you improvise and trying to scramble to grab another crappy gun off the ground from someone you recently dispatched. Also really miss the healing and Buddy system, where if you went down in combat, you didn't just "die and reload", your buddy would actually show up to pull you to safety and help fight your way out. Too many whiners ruined good mechanics though.

    Far Cry doesn't seem to change, ever. Every time I play a new one I think "I might as well go back and play Far Cry 3" because the experience is still essentially the same and the plot, characters and even missions aren't enough to tide me over to play a new one. I've played every one of them since 3 but 3 is the only one I beat and now I feel like I've beat all of them.

      Dude I literally thought of this last night. The "new" games (far cry 3-6) all feel the same so the only incentive is what kind of map you want to play on. And for me far cry 3s map seems like the best one because it has the OG tropical island filled with mercenaries vibe to it like far cry 1 did.

    A story about a resistance needs to be compelling, gritty, and have to have a sense of progression that begins at ground zero.
    From what I've seen from past FryCry games I think only 3 really nails the feeling of progression.
    The only game I've seen pull off a good resistance is actually a MOD for Arma 3, Antistasi.
    I want to ambush a patrol with makeshift pipe guns to scavenge their gear. I want to organize an ambush on a encampment. I want the enemy to FIGHT BACK, the enemy should not just let you have a camp after losing one battle to you. I want to fend off attacks from my hard earned territory until my resistance advances enough to be knocking on the dictator's front door.
    But we got a hipster and watered down game more focused on.... I don't even know! Farcry seems to have lost it's identity and charm. Sure the fundamental game is good and never changes, but I'm bored. This game is boring.

    Oluso is the panther you didn't get. It's stealth companion like Boom Boom that one shot kills in stealth mode and disintigrates the body so it cannot be found. Oluso also comes with a stealth supremo, stealth gear, and a gun that shoots through walls. So yeah, that's the stealthiest set of everything you can get. Though the gun doesn't have a silencer, it's one shot kill so it's great for rushing missions.

    The premise of each Far Cry game is that you are stranded in an unfamiliar location and are forced to survive by the skin of your teeth, avoiding confrontation when possible. The closest the series got to fulfilling this vision was Far Cry 2 with the jamming weapons, malaria mechanic, and immersive in-game map. In fact, every single Far Cry game starts off in a scenario where you are stranded with no weapons. However, each game since 2 quickly goes off the rails and becomes a power fantasy. At least in Far Cry 3, the "power fantasy" aspect made some sense with the story of Jason becoming more and more of a ruthless killer as the story went on, but I think the games could be so much better if they remain tense, immersive experiences up until the ending.
    In my ideal Far Cry game, combat should be a last resort. Weapons shouldn't be so easy to come across, and ammo should be scarce. Taking damage has a chance to inflict an injury, reducing your max health until the injury is fixed (similar to Breakpoint). There should be a hunger mechanic that forces you to either hunt animals, buy in villages, or scrounge rations from enemy bases. Stealth is improved, allowing you to go prone and crawl along the ground. Suppressors function much like real world suppressors do; enemies can hear suppressed gunshots, but do not know where the shot came from unless you are close by, putting them on alert but not drawing them to your position. The only way to take down enemies silently is with a bow, or a melee weapon. There are no super-backpacks with rocket launchers.

With every new entry in any franchise, u either get a new protagonist or a new setting (sometimes not even that. For eg:- Horizon Zero Dawn). Every GTA game is just a bigger map with beautiful graphics and yet almost everyone .... to GTA 5. How was GTA V different from GTA 4. Infact with each new entry, the gameplay in rockstar games becomes more and more frustatingly linear and yet I dont see people crying about that. This is hypocrisy.

It was arguably a masterpiece when it came out in 2013 because it was one of the only open world games to offer such a fleshed out and well told story while providing the player with so many side tasks that were actually enjoyable, paired with it's excellent writing. The story, gameplay and overall design was objectively better. There was also a 5 year time gap between the 2. Far Cry however remains the same every single iteration, the graphics improve slightly, the design philosophies remain almost exactly the same year after year after year. It's oversaturated, and all that changes is the location and the gimmicky villain. The stories are always half assed, and the writing is never as fleshed out as it should be. If you've played Far Cry 3, you've played them all. The games are a lazy cash grab for a developer that has run out of ideas.
