Far Cry 3 Thread

Hi guys,

Finally got round to installing (physical copy) this today and I've gone to add/activate the deluxe DLC bundle which I bought from Greenman gaming and I just want to make sure I've got it right?

The code I was sent by GMG did not want to activate on Steam or uPlay but I was able to download the bundle through Capsule (GMG's own little agent by the looks of it?) and when that finished I was able to install. I've finished installing but all I am able to play is the soundtrack or the survival guide. Has the level content been automatically added to my Far Cry 3 installation?

I just want things straight before I start playing later :D
 
Check your map you should have some missions icons that stand out from the rest, the missions are called forgotten experiments & monkey business.
 
Hi,

Just started playing this. Slightly dissapointed by the huge weapon model / viewmodel fov but I can live with that. I'm enjoying the game but I don't really like all the hand holding there is, like everything appearing on minimap, following arrows all the time, being told when enemies are watching you etc.

I've been looking and I think Ziggy's mod will be good for me. I just want to expolore the island and find loot for myself etc, not for it to pop up on my map. And do missions as and when I find them.

Just wondering as this is my first play through, will I be missing out on anything by using Ziggy's mod? As far as I can tell it doesn't take anything away from the game apart from the hand holding.

Ohh I remember that one. I didn't run around looking for them like the guy in the video. I had the same troubles as you, I can't really give many tips tbh, I tried it a few times and got it eventually. I just took some cover near the plane and took them out as they came into view.

I think I mainly used the mounted gun for this. Occasionally if they got close I used my assault rifle/sniper to headshot them.

You do have to be careful of the guys who come up behind you.

Make use of your grenades as well if you see a group.

The main issue is the heavy mobs. I disengaged for most of them and got behind them to kill them. If I remember correctly they have a weak spot on their backs.
 
I remember using mines and C4 for the heavies and to proetct the surrounding area. Fire arrows also work well for heavies as it's a 1 hit kill. I only used the mounted gun for enemies coming directly in front of it and just for the regular enemy types.
 
Can anyone tell me,I got Far Cry 3 and fancy having a dabble with the FC3 map editor/creator.

When you create maps are you able to play them online against other people?..how does it work?

Why are the graphics/shaders so terrible in this game when there is low lighting? You get green/purple hands etc, it looks awful. Just me?

No idea, but there is a setting that can be turned low/off that eliminates it, can't remember what it was though.

Thanks for replying. :)

Having searched the Ubisoft forums, it would seem that I have to enter the code for Lost Expeditions in order to get the main game. :confused:

Anyway, I've done that, and it appeared to accept my code, though no game has showed up in my library yet. I suppose it might take a while to materialize.
 
Finally got this to work with my 690!

For ages the game would stutter like mad and nothing I did would fix it :(

After upgrading my CPU and upgrading to windows 8.1 thought ild give it another try and it works :D Only played about an hour of it but finding it quite fun
 
Started playing this game a few days ago.

Great game. Really fun fluid and diverse. Game has everything. Climing, exploration, hunting, gun fights, stealth, mature story line, pretty graphics etc...
