Far Cry 6

I've enjoyed FC3,4 and 5 but don't think I'll be pre-ordering this, think I'll wait for the reviews to come out and see what's out around the same time.

Silly question, do we think AMD will still honour the free game? I think when I purchased my Cpu this game was listed as free but then it was delayed.

Why wouldn't they? As long as you've claimed you code it is on your AMD account to be used when released.

Thanks yeah. I was just being silly and worrying this morning. (Not that you should ever worry about a game lol). Logged into AMD Rewards and checked and it says this. Phew.

Congratulations on reserving Far Cry® 6 (Standard PC Edition)! We will update your account and notify you as soon as the content key is available.

Your key will be assigned as soon as it is available.
Release Date: TBD

They should have emailed you a code after you had received the AMD product. With that if you haven't already claimed through the AMD site then I believe you are too late too claim for it.

you could message CS. Although they will likely just apologise I have previous had issue where they sent me a game code from another promotion as apology.

There was some leaks early this morning but Ubisoft claimed them and they got taken down. Going by notes we have:

Health bars (on enemies) not sure about the player.
A destiny style hub and quest system.
1st and 3rd person gameplay.
Supressors can overheat.
Gun customisation.
3rd person is forced in camps.

While I wanted them to take it in a different direction after all too similar sequels, it sounds like another Division game to me.

TheRadBrad has gameplay up today

I had a very brief look - I thought it looked like Far Cry 5 DLC!

Hopefully plays more like FC4. Hated 5.

Tombstone · 31 Aug 2021 at 18:59

Dont think I would buy this then again I guess I will get it anyway as part of my Uplay+ sub, so dont need to buy it anyway

Josh · 31 Aug 2021 at 19:04

It looks awful, like Just Cause Cry 6.

varkanoid · 31 Aug 2021 at 19:10

I hope its more 4 than 5 but I doubt it.

My AMD Rewards has now saying its released 2021-10-07 - it was Feb 2022 at one point.

Grumps82 · 31 Aug 2021 at 19:22

God it looks terrible.

Digital X · 31 Aug 2021 at 20:24

I dunno what to make of this, visually it looks great. I swear they kept the same sprinting and climbing animations from Far Cry 3/4 though.

On the other hand the gunplay just looks bleh...

TonyTurbo78 · 31 Aug 2021 at 23:37

It looks absolutely pony, but why am I surprised, its Far Cry and Ubisoft.

Spleen Sauce · 1 Sep 2021 at 09:49

I'll play it as a mindless co-op shooter, same as the last one.

VincentHanna · 1 Sep 2021 at 09:59

I'll certainly play it - Because it came free with my AMD 5900x
