Far Cry 4 due this November

Utterly bored of FC4 now. Its the same old mission types over and over. I reckon I'm about halfway through the storyline and I can't be bothered playing any further. I'll keep it installed for a bit in case I fancy revisiting it but I can't see it.
 
not really liking the purchase of this so far

its 99% far cry 3 with 1% new stuff - it can be fun but its nothing new

just so bored of ubisoft this last year, AC:U, watchdogs and this are all so similar now, climb tower, a open chest, collect "text only" junk and sell it - repeat until bored
 
I think the problem is they give them selves a tight schedule to get games out the door. Every year a new Far Cry a new AC etc... corners need to be cut to get it done.

Prefer the way Rockstar and CD Projekt are building their games. It's ready when it's ready.

Although I am finding Far Cry 4 fun.
 
The Kyrat Fashion week missions. I've done 4 of them, but I cant for the life of me see any more missions on the map. :confused:
Have you discovered all the outposts? And conquered them all? I think all the Fashion week missions are found here so you have to have discovered and conquered all the outposts before you can find all the Fashion week missions.

Equivalent thing for me is the Mohan Ghale journals. I've found all but one and there's no hint on the map as to the final one's location and I've bought all the maps. :p

It's not possible to get the final journal until you've completed the storyline, however it should appear on your map prior to then, you just can't get to it.

I'm pretty sure I know where it is but it is not on my map.

Edit: Found it. It was quite a way off the map. ;)

The gameworld is really lovely in Far Cry 4, I have a load of excellent screenshots for my wallpaper. Gameplay was pretty good too when they were not wrenching control away from you for awkward animations etc.

The eagle attacks were a bit mental though, why on earth have eagles suddenly become the most vicious attackers of humans? When did that start? Leopards and bears attacking I can understand but eagles? It was like Alfred Hitchcock's the Birds. Bizarre.
 
Seems like it's a patch for the map editor.

Far Cry 4 - PC Patch 1.8.0 Changelog:

Co-Op Map Editor FAQ's
All maps will be playable in co-op and in single player mode.
Map creators will be able to place two spawn points: The first one will spawn Player One, while the second one will spawn Player Two.

In the Quick Play menu you can quickplay top rated maps, random maps, and host a co-op game.

I am really enjoying playing this game. I love the gameplay, the graphics are pretty good for what it is. I do agree on the eagle comments, they do bug me and should only attack when you do something that could spook them out. They always seem to come when you're trying to be quiet and end up leaving you no choice but to blow them with a shotgun and tell everyone you are there!
 
If someone could confirm if the stuttering problems are fixed with the latest patch I'd really appreciate it and then I'll pick this up finally


there lies the problem, it runs without stuttering for some people including me, I can run it on Ultra & get around 80 -100 FPS since I upgraded my rig to:- Intel 4690 @ 3.50GHz, Asus Maximus VII Ranger, MSI Gamer GTX980 16Gb Kingston 2133MHz, very old Samsung hardrive, Win 7 64 Ultimate

Even people with the same systems can have totally different problems so it may be driver related, I was challenged on Ubisoft forums as a liar when I said it runs for me without stuttering :rolleyes: simply because several of them had more or less the same system as me.
Some people keep getting crashes or severe graphic anomalies & I & quite a lot of others don't have that problem either so what is the answer? It can't all be the game engines fault can it.
Without a shadow of doubt many problems are caused by not selecting to play offline which I have done right from the start so I get no corrupted saves thanks to Uplay cloud.
