I will be getting this for sure, looks like great fun, though will get a key from a CJS or similar.

Only thing that bugs me is the Co-op, 2 player only and the second player doesn't unlock the progression..I'd love to play with 2 or 3 friends through the whole thing. Tried Wildlands but the lag was just buggy and awful.

Really? I'm obviously not disbelieving you in the slightest mate, I had a lot of playtime in wildlands, even with mates in canada, all around europe and I can't recall once instance of lag - could it be a port issue? I had so much fun in that game - certainly don't give up on it!

Yeah the 2 player co-op is a bit limiting/will wait and see what/if any progression is saved, but it isn't a deal breaker, as long as it has multiple profiles so I can play with a few diff mates.

Maybe they patched it, but on release my friends and I would lag around each other, it was most annoying to try and play LAN.

Yeah, and I notice it still has all the onscreen markers crap telling you where to go and what to do. Guess it's a fact of life that AAA games these days are aimed squarely at the dumbest members of society who need their hands held and everything done for them.

Oh no! This is a deal-breaker for me. If there is not at least an option to turn off the dumbed-down HUD, then I cannot buy this game.

How hard is it to put a setting in the options to turn off the immersion-killing eyesores? Why make a beautiful gameworld and then ruin it with bright red cartoon figures all over the screen because one of your playtesters was a moron? Why treat all of your customers like children? It’s 2018, there MUST be an option to turn off the kiddy console onscreen monstrosities? No excuse for a game with this sort of budget.

You could turn them off in the last few fc games so would assume the same is still possible. Probably worth not getting worked up about it unless they confirm you cant.

Im 50/50 on this could be fun but not convinced.

It's rather annoying isn't it, like the new Deus Ex games lighting everything up for you.

Just turn it off though, there's nearly always the option to.

3rd was very similar to 4 so if you didn't like that you wouldn't like 4 to be honest. 4 is the better game though

The story, location and baddie from 3 were much better than 4 but the gun play, gameplay and graphics much better on 4.

Both were enjoyable but very very repetetive which is very much an Ubisoft thing of creating huge detailed worlds with absolutely nothing to do in them.

Farcry, Assassin's Creed, Watchdogs, The Division and Wildlands are all exactly the same in that respect, I hope FC5 is different but I dont hold out hope.
 
I am currently playing FC4 for the first time (nearing the end) and have had a blast so far - I enjoy playing it more than FC3 which I found boring for some reason. The gunplay in 4 is much better, as is the gameplay imo. Really hoping 5 does away with the 'trippy' gameplay elements though!

I'm on the fence about getting the latest installment, given that my PC's specs (i7@5ghz, 16gb, R9 290) probably won't allow for very high settings but I having the 20% discount code helps on the standard version.

Yeah I really enjoyed FC 4 , FC 3 not so much.
