I loved the first Far Cry must have finished it about 10 times easily. Played a few hours of Far Cry 2 but didnt gel with it or ended up getting distracted with other games. Currently downloading Far Cry 3 which i havent touched but apparently its the best one going by what ive heard other posters have said about it. If i end up loving the game and finishing is Far Cry 4 and Primal worth getting when they are on sale or should i just jump to this one?

Whats Far Cry 3 like to run on a 6700K 16gb ram and 1080 card at 3440x1440 res?

Should work pretty well. I average around 85 - 90 FPS when running a single 1080Ti @ 2101 MHz at 3440 x 1440 with everything maxed. I suspect a 1080 should have no real issue maintaining a smooth 60 fps, with possibly a few tweaks if needed.

I'm running it on a 6 core Xeon [email protected], 16Gb RAM and an Nvidia GTX760 at 1920 x 1080 and its actually running pretty damn peachy. :cool:

Guys, can you not go fully prone in this? I can only see a 'C' for crouch in the settings but no way to actually lie right down?

Digital X · 31 Mar 2018 at 20:13

Nope, no prone. Standing and Crouch.

These results are at High at 1080p http://gamegpu.com/action-/-fps-/-tps/far-cry-5-test-gpu-cpu

The1nonly1 · 31 Mar 2018 at 21:20

Thanks. Medium should be good then for 60 fps

Medium? I get 50 - 70 FPS on maximum settings with my spec, you should do much better.

Right, just met Boomer at the Pumpkin farm. What's the crack with him then? I can't work out how to order him to do stuff, or does that not happen? I don't think he can ride in vehicles either, is that right?

Kainz · 31 Mar 2018 at 21:57

Starting to think something is up with my R9 290 giving me 30-40fps @ 1080p on High settings going by the pc combinations and fps reports here.

He spots enemies and other things around you, he does attack when in a fight and I think he loots bodies to. I don't give him orders just let him do his thing.

Edit No he doesn't ride in vehicles but is one fast dog lol

Open up Uplay, top right. Very nice Ubisoft, very nice. Did worry me for a sec!

Disappointed that only one persons game progresses in coop. Wanted to play the entire thing through from start to finish with a mate. Kind of pointless if they get nothing from it, they’ll have to replay stuff solo..

That’s a bit ****

Yeah. Borderlands 2 had this perfected how many years ago? It's 2018 ffs and I can't even be bothered with coop because of that.

No doubt laziness from developers as per.

Look down your sights at something, aim at something and tap G and Boomer will go attack that target or move to that spot and stand guard, hold G to make him follow again.
