Ubisoft FarCry 5 'are you ready' thread just shown up....

So wonder when they will show there villian, trying too hard to recreate that Vaas from 3.

I hope this takes a different direction, don't want towers or outposts etc

Just watched the teaser. Anyone notice whats happening in the bell tower on the church? If not watch it again closely and see how the bell is being rung. LOL.

I might be alone on this one but I think they've drifted into some rather ridiculous territories with this plot-wise. The above art looks almost like a parody.

Urgh no thanks then.

Will probably be just as **** as FC 4 for the characters.

Roll on RDR 2 sometime in 2019/2020 for pc....

Dirk Diggler · 24 May 2017 at 18:21

Looks fine to me, a wee change from villains in red.

Mate, grab that PS4 already, I know you were planning to because we've talked about it once

You're missing out on many fine games that aren't broken on release and I'm sure you wouldn't fancy waiting for RDR2 till devil knows when

Nexus18 · 24 May 2017 at 18:51

Hopefully it will play very different to FC 3/4 but I won't be holding my breath.... I expect it will be the exact same premise as FC 4 i.e. modern weapons, liberating the same radio towers and camps across the map from some whacky villain like the one in FC 4, same upgrades/system for your gear/weapons and a wild beast by your side.

I was planning to until I played on a friends PS 4 pro a few weeks ago but I just can't deal with 30 fps, it is "smoother" than PC @ 30 fps but the motion clarity of 30 fps is too off putting for me

That and I would seriously miss 21.9 for gaming especially since a lot of games now have really cramped FOV.

Reminds me a bit of the film Red State.

It looks like the setting from Die Trying (Lee Child - Jack Reacher novel). That had a similar premise to how this was set up with a cult in Montana

It's different and a unique premise, games wise, so they have my interest. I just hope the gameplay differs from taking over camps and climbing towers.

Not likely, that is what FC is as a series.

kration · 25 May 2017 at 14:34

Well, looks OK to me. I've got all of the Far Cry series and enjoyed all of them to varying degrees. This is really the only game series I look out for...

heartburnron · 25 May 2017 at 16:57

I quite like climbing the towers

Yes, and I like fighting for the camps too!

It's like some people want to see the signature aspects of the game removed. Might as well give him superpowers and a cape and call it Batman.

Looking forward to this, I really dislike Ubi and a lot of their games and practices, but Far Cry (aside from the cash-in spinoffs) has been very enjoyable. Best story in 3, best mechanics in 4.

Lots of fun.

Raumarik · 25 May 2017 at 20:09

I like it when it's £10. Will wait on this one dropping too along with the patches to fix gameplay..

TonyTurbo78 · 25 May 2017 at 20:30

Fc2 and fc3 the best of the bunch for me. If it wasn't for bugs and respawning checkpoints fc2 would easily be the standout version for me, loved that setting.

I agree. FC2 gets panned, but I really enjoyed the game more than the later versions. The original FC is still my favourite though - simply because of the awe the original graphics and open world inspired - mutants or not...
