Downloaded FarCry, whenever I try and play it uplay opens and nothing, it doesn't even appear in my games :/
Not even appearing in my games list :/

Are you trying to open the Far Cry exe? ...if not, try that.

Yea tried that mate, they e-mailed me with the CD key and the game isn't in my list of games, tried all the exes and nothing :/

It's funny what a high powered SMG, shallow water and a swimming speed upgrade can do for a phobia of Sharks.

Got 6 skins so far. :cool:

Whilst I really want to love this game, there are a lot of little niggles which are stopping me atm. the restrictiveness of the missions is pretty poor.

I'm finding the constant quests, objectives, skills, character bio etc pop ups annoying. The crafting is confusing too. Is there no objective marker? As I have to find some Dr and I have no idea where I'm supposed to go.

Keeps crashing for me after a few hours. Hasn't really been an issue until just now where it's lost an absolute ton of progress. Really annoying to have to re-do so much (4+ hours) and there's no guarantee it wont just happen again..

Hi all,
Looking to buy this myself but where's the best/cheapest place to get it via digital download?
thanks

I had a few crashes last night, haven't had one since going to offline mods in uplay.

i find the whole "mission" thing restrictive, i would much prefer to collect multiple quests then go and do tham as i see fit, dont like having to do one at a time and stay within the mission area. Also not a fan of the menu system and save set up.

Other than that its a great game, maybe mods could fix these niggles? Hope so!

I find it much more fun to play the bait myself and when the shark starts to chew on me I would just quickly complete the quicktime event and stab the thing to death..

If I could banish just one thing from gaming, it would be QTE's that you can't fail :mad:

Is this a Russian only copy though?
And anyone used these before?

cHk4 · 30 Nov 2012 at 18:54

Really annoying, I want to play the bloody game.

I don't have these issues.. I feel when I do bump into a patrol it feels somewhat natural. Also taking over outpost limits the patrols in the area by a big factor

Might be realistic and natural but so far I am finding it annoying to the point that I don't drive anywhere at all or go anywhere near the main roads, not that it bothers me too much as I love hunting the wildlife in the jungle areas with my bow and arrows!

Why can you not say something without being criticised for moaning on forums?

It is the internet!

You post any criticism at all, even if it is in a constructive form, guaranteed you will be told to stop crying/moaning/whining by some members/fanboys.

If you think it is bad in here, don't dare post anything negative about BF 3/DICE/EA in the BF 3 thread

This game is so beautiful on a mix of medium/high and a few things on low, the sun sets and sun rises looks great.

So anyone have any idea? I got e-mailed the key from uplay, nothing is in my games list for farcry, there is nowhere to redeem the key... What do?
