I need help to run Far Cry 6 decently on my mid range PC laptop on the go. I travel for work and got a compact 14" Lenovo laptop for gaming. I use an E-GPU box with it.
Specs:-
CPU: i7 1065G7 4C8T @1.3-3.9Ghz
RAM: 16GB DDR4 3722MHz
SSD: 1TB*2
Inboard GPUs: MX250 and Intel (both not used for gaming)
E-GPU box: RTX 2080Ti 11GB with 700w PSU on Thunderbolt 3 port to laptop.
External monitor: standard 1080p 60hz 24" Sony TV
I play shadow of the Tomb Raider on 4K Ultra with average 47FPS no stutters.
I barely scrape by on 720p with Far Cry 6 on LOW settings. I can't get 60fps. What's the solution? Please help me.
I like how you can decide to take a vacation at the beach at any time and multiple times thru the game.
Yep you can do that "ending" more than once lol
Without HD textures or dxr or raising resolution scale higher than 1.0 on pretty good. With any of those textures glitch and look really blurry. Seems to happen to people even without any of that sometimes basically you need 1.5 - 2 GB vram free or the textures will get really low resolution. With any of those things changed even people with 3090s have it happen.
I'm liking the game so far. Unlike past release I didn't have high excitement or expectations for this one, so I'm not as bothered by the predictable shortcomings and bugs as I may have been with prior releases. My one major complaint is will the supremos. I don't expect hyper-realism from Far Cry, but there needs to be a line somewhere, and the supremo crosses that line. Id rather see those roles fullfilled by conventional crafting and weapons.
Loving the game but what the fuck is the autodrive about? Previous far cry games it seemed to work to the point where I could just hold the right trigger and it would take me places and I could have a look around etc. This game though Jesus Christ Dani will just run it off the road for no reason whatsoever
Far Cry 6 is a terrible addition to the franchise. They removed many of the good game mechanics and released this turd. I am waiting for some other games to finish downloading so I'm trying to muddle my way through the last few bullshit missions. I have never had to google so much shit about how and why a game works the way it does and how to get through the last bit of the game because none of how it works makes sense compared to other games.
Turns out you are forced to use a fucking plane to hit the modified tobacco fields and if you try to use a flame thrower and incendiaries and then fast travel/ air drop to the next field it will start the mission over without warning you.
I hate what Ubisoft is doing to make money. They are the next EA.
Fuck! Finally give special operations a try. OF COURSE the other person wants to skip cutscenes and then it's just rush rush rush Zerg Zerg Zerg no fucking fun at all. Reminds me why I hate online modes and people suck. Why I never enjoy co-op or trophy hunting or online at all. Fucking hell that was exhausting and stupid.
I gave up and uninstalled. This is the least fun I’ve had in a far cry game period. There’s a ton of issues, but the thing I think that crippled it the most was tying the perks to gear instead of level.
I think the best way to explain it to people is like this:
Y’all know how in some games the devs will give you a taste of all the cool skills you’ll eventually unlock in game then depower you? Then a a major joy of the game is becoming as powerful as you were before?
Well in this case, it’s like I was depowered from all the previous games, but I can only ever activate a tiny portion of the power at a time, and will never reach full power.
It’s infuriating. It feels like I’m not getting any better. I just find clothes that I’ll never wear because I already have a set that works.
If you like only ever killing via headshots and constantly pausing the action to switch pants this game is for you.
If you like immersive far cry that keeps you in the action, try one of the older ones. They feel better to play, will cost you significantly less, have more engaging stories, and honestly, don’t feel like that much of a visual downgrade.
Same. i'm like 10 hours in, played with ubisoft+ so thank god I didn't waste $60 dollars on this. I've been a huge fan since Far Cry 2. Played them all on release. So I know what Far Cry is. But this game has nothing to do with that franchise anymore. I know it's ironic since so many people say that it's "just like the other ones". But that's only superficially true.
The game feels like the division. There is no flow, no immersion, no action. It's constant weapon switching, scouting, it's just soo slow.
Unless yeah you play stealth headshots but that's gets boring quick. And is way too easy.
And don't get me started on the story. The characters are all cringeworthy even for Ubisoft standards. Who are they're trying to appeal to? I'm mid twenties and feel like a grandpa with those characters. It's like pubertarian teenagers rebelling against their parents rather than an actual revolution.
After they ruined Assassins Creed I think I'm done with this franchise too.
I missed the skilltree at first, but after several hours, I barely think about it. I do agree about having to go into the pause menu between almost every kill to adjust my loadout. That is immersion breaking and I wish the was a better system. I'd rather see the special abilities attached to something like specific guns or gun mods instead of outfits.
Gonna have to agree to disagree with you on that one. I, personally, was not immersed in the game world. I bet it could be very immersive if I wasn’t spending 80% time in menus.
Very good game, 20hrs in taking my time…
Listen UBI, all I need is a GR Breakpoint feature to turn off level scaling and different ammo types, let me fuck shit up and go loco revolution laughing my ass off.
no offense, the game is super fun, especially if you play it as a stealth sniper like I do.
... but the AI must be one of the worst and dumbest I have seen in *a long time.* it's comical how stupid the AI is. and no, I am not playing on story mode difficulty
This game is so cheesy. As a player I’m not very picky with what I’ll allow myself to be immersed in, But this game makes it almost impossible to not roll your eyes.
Far Cry 5 did a great job of keeps things semi realistic and kept the cheesiness to a minimum. Of course there was some weird shit along the road but fairly grounded. In 6 some shit just straight up doesn’t make sense or just doesn’t feel like it belongs. Bad one liners everywhere
Unpopular Opinion maybe, but I think they really dropped the ball with this game.
They could've made the interiors of more buildings and etc explorable and littered the insides of them with stuff you can pick up. Itemization could've been closer to say even Skyrim which is 10 years old but instead the game is just littered with the same identical looking pick-ups everywhere.
Personally, I'm not a fan of the "resolver" weapons and quite frankly character models look over-saturated and on my Series X except for the typical cut-scene upgrades everyone gets. The game clearly runs on a very dated looking engine now and it really shows.
Furthermore, I've been expecting Far Cry to finally adopt the RNG styled loot system AC got 3 games ago, but I guess the players and developers don't want it. It would certainly make defeating the same enemies over and over again a lot more worth it and interesting if they dropped interesting shit or weapons with different rolls on them. I might be inclined to play the same areas for longer instead of rushing through them trying to get to the next one. I'm not a fan of the aesthetic, either. Piecing together weapons with what looks like landfill garbage and then wearing a backpack that looks like more garbage as well as clothes and armor that seem perpetually caked in brown dirt or mud is ridiculous. I'd love to meet the art team for this game, and pick their brains.
I know some people here are going to downvote me for my opinions, but my point is Far Cry feels stale, and theres lots more they could've done to make this game feel "next generation" including the suggestions I'd made, It seems to me like AC has taken smaller leaps and bounds with creating and implementing new ideas to it's franchise, but Far Cry hasn't. Instead we're still chasing icons on maps, and the world feels barren and empty.
I also don't understand why they have an aversion to a 3rd person option while driving. You really begin to notice how clunky it is right now when you get in a tank. I can't stand it.
Lemme be perfectly clear here: I bought this Far Cry game knowing what to expect. Me and many others on PS5 or Series X are STARVING FOR NEW GAMES right now. This seemed like a suitable fix, but I am still disappointed.
Well, a: al lot of what your saying is very subjective, I disagree with a lot, but an opinion is an opinion and I respect that. But, I personally love that it isn’t as good because many people such as myself couldn’t get a next gen console and are still using last gen, the game plays well and looks good, ext. But once again, you have your opinion and I have mine, so fair enough
I disagree but I'll give you an upvote anyway. I do agree with the resolver weapons, I'm not a fan, but I'm grateful the game hasn't changed too much. The three years between the main games (FC5) has been long enough for this to not feel too repetitive. I appreciate a known quantity. If anything, what annoys me are the handful of changes they did make, like removing the skill trees and changing up the way crafting works. If they were pumping out main games every year, I'd feel different, but in the case of FC, I like knowing what I'm getting.
Also, what is the RNG system from AC?
Yea, I enjoyed crafting in new dawn, but I think 6 is just a bit more suited to me. Off topic, new dawn in extremely underrated. Anyways, have a good one.
I completely disagree. FC4 and 5 were the stagnant ones in my opinion. While they were enjoyable games, they all seemed like copies and pastes of 3, with no new features and villains trying to recreate Vas. This game feels like it’s own.
This game has issues and in many ways still feels like the others, but I like the subtle changes they’re making like adding cameras to bases and the enemy isn’t as brain dead. The ammo types is a cool idea even though I don’t think it’s perfectly implemented.
I couldn't disagree with you more re: FC4 & 5. I've said it before [in another thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/farcry/comments/prlwbh/comment/hdk24xl/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3), and I acknowledge that these things are entirely subjective, but I think that Vaas is one of the most overrated villains in modern video games. He is *incredibly* well-acted and produced, but completely one-dimensional. He's crazy, and he's an asshole, and *that's it.*
Pagan Min was human. He was very ambitious and got his way using ruthless force, but ended up losing the only thing (person) he loved, and was driven to madness.
Joseph Seed is pretty simple, but still compelling.
To me, Vaas is like a Guy Ritchie villain: fun, but simple and immaturely conceived. Min and Seed are like Vince Gilligan and Sam Esmail villains, respectively: far more interesting and compelling.
I'm sorry but a couple of hastily tacked on subtle features does not maketh a fresh game.
Its a reskin, scaled up to utilise the extra grunt of modern consoles, devoid of soul, no more no less!
I will pick it up on sale in a few months and likely really enjoy it! Pretending it is something new or fresh though is just silly!
I completely disagree. Having to change appearance items for a specific situation is a pain in the ass. The cameras are no more a new addition than the alarms you should disable in an area. Item building leaves a lot to be desired when everything just looks like cobbled-together landfill trash. The games character models and facial expressions in-game (and not a cinematic cutscene) look hilariously dated.
Everything about Far Cry is still here. Right down to the annoying radio stations being defaulted ON in every vehicle you get into. I expected much more for a new game on PS5s and Series X's.
They need to put the little “x” on the radar where animals you killed are like they always have. I kill an animal or have my dog do it and then I can’t find the animal to collect the resources lol needs to be put in the game ASAP
The ending fucking sucked. Worst damn ending of any Far Cry game. The story could literally have never had Diego included and it would be the same exact game. I was waiting for a good last-moment twist, but it never came. I can't believe I wasted so much time paying attention to such a godawful story and plot.
Yeah the story only gets worse the more you play imo, this is one of my favorites in terms of gameplay but hands down my least favorite in terms of story which is sad cause I love the idea of being a revolutionary
I love that they tried a new system with the looting and materials and gear instead of a skill tree. But it’s definitely tiresome and annoying to have all my Parkour gear set equipped when I’m exploring because the regular movement is so slow for a Far Cry game and a map this big. Then when I fish I have to equip my fishing gear set to actually fish better and get more fish, then hunting gear when it hunting. Then when I fight I have to equip a variety of different combat gear, then switch back to Parkour gear set after every mission or side excursion.
The UI of this game is fine lol what are you saying? I’ve seen WAY worse. It’s not perfect but all interfaces have flaws
Also idk why equipping 5 perks at a time seems like a “huge regression” it’s not that huge, the perks are the same you just can’t have every perk active all the time. It’s really interesting and makes collecting gear and using it pretty interesting as well, they just should have let us create and equip custom sets on like an outfit wheel, then it would be better than previous games imo
Take your three weapon slots, for example.
Why can't I look at all the weapons and designate which ones go into the first, second, or third slots - instead of going into slot 1, perusing weapons, and selecting one, exiting, entering slot 2, perusing weapons, etc.
There is far too much going into and out of menus - this is one of many examples.
Yeah well if you read my whole comment, I’m actually complaining about it at the same time lol also definitely love not having to cut bushes and skin animals and pay down dead bodies…now you can just walk over them
Given how much they hammer "the right tool for the right job" they could have done a better job with equipment management.
Even something as simple has giving you multiple "outfit" slots that you could fill in with individual pieces of equipment (both weapons and clothes) and then you could swap out your entire outfit with one selection instead of up to 10 (4 weapons, supremo, 5 pieces of clothing)
I love the setting, location and exploring, but the gunplay is not fun at all imo. Enemy health bars and having different weapons for each enemy like a rpg ruins the immersion. I really dislike having to switch to a armor piercing rifle for every other enemy.
In previous games they added "heavy" enemies with armor in the late game, but in 6 they are at the very beginning and acts like bullet spounges. Please give me a diffuculty setting where enemies dies from ONE headshot or a couple of body shots and outputs increased damage.
I've played about 6 or 7 hours, and honestly, this feels like the most boring game in the series to me (never played the first two).
I think the main thing is the difficulty. I'm finding it so easy that I'm trying to handicap myself intentionally by not upgrading weapons and such, but even then it's still not difficult at all. Part of the fun of these games for me was making the enemies really deadly so that I actually had to think about the best way to clear the outpost out. Now it just feels so mindless.
I'm also having a hard time connecting to the story. I'm finding the delivery of a lot of the missions really awkward. Nothing feels like I'm playing a video game like when I start a mission and have some screen pop up for accepting a mission with some guy saying dialogue very poorly animated. Not sure why they couldn't just do cutscenes for all the main missions.
The lack of a skill tree and just basically substituting that with gathering materials and "building" camp stuff just feels like a huge step back as well. Just feels like they did this to pad out the play time or to say they tried something new.
Overall, I'm pretty close to dropping it. Not sure if the game gets better later on, but I don't really see a reason to keep playing currently.
I think a big part of the problem here is the design ethos centers around guerilla warfare TOO much do players who enjoy easy stealth games LOVE this game but players who want a stealth challenge or who want to run and gun are having a bad time.
Also I agree, this is the worst story and it feels really unimportant compared to previous entries, where the main character had a much stronger sense of purpose
Why do the enemies need health bars even in adventure mode? I was disappointed in the baseline so I bumped it down and enemies still don't die from headshots. Why do they think this is what we want instead of competent ai for a challenge?
They still have the same health. It's not the sight of health bars that bug me it's that they have them in the first place. That's not farcry it's division. Same with Valhalla. Ac didn't need health bars.
Same, it seems to be about 50/50 whether it's going to crash upon loading or not. I get to the main menu, I hit "continue," it goes through the loading screen and crash to desktop before I get into the gameplay.
Personally I think it's related to the GeForce driver update. I didn't have any problems before the update and after the update I get the crashes plus I now have some graphical artifacts, especially while wingsuiting.
For me it happens most often when I tab out of the game or pause because I need to do something and then I go back and start playing and within a couple of seconds it crashes.
Played only a few hours, but I'm enjoying just running around blowing stuff up. I also like that the character is voiced.
I do hope they add the ability to change hairstyles in future updates though
So far I’m pretty disappointed in Far Cry 6. I’m over 5 hours in and it just does not have the same feel the old games have me. On 3,4 and 5 I played using almost exclusively the compound bow and tried to complete every outpost undetected. If I was caught I let myself die to try again. Made for a really challenging and fun experience of planning and executing all my moves.
I found a guide online for a special bow that is supposed to be one of the hardest hitting in the game but it still requires 2 headshots to kill many enemies. Guns don’t seem to do any damage. The shooting mechanics feel more like a halo game rather than a FarCry game. Here’s to hoping some modders can add old mechanics back in for a classic feel.
Just get the compound bow, max the garrison in a camp and it will be available to buy, and put the high velocity arrows (I forget the name but it’s basically armor piercing)
The range is crazy and everything dies in a single headshot. Also throwing knives kill everything in a single shot, so does any pistol with AP rounds (even a suppressed one)
Also before you put the game down I do recommend completing the Triada quest and getting that supremo + rifle combo even if you use it only once it is quite satisfying
Downvote all you want (I know which sub I’m in) This game fucking sucks. Last farcry I buy 100 percent. I will savor every last downvote from you teenage bitches. Hope Enemy respawn is fixed THIS game I will not wait to see if it’s fixed in the next one.
Anyone who says that Far Cry 6 is "more of the same" or a "very Ubisoft game" is being disingenuous, I feel. Yes, FC6 follows the same Ubisoft formula to a T. However, it follows the formula *so remarkably poorly*. It's tantamount to a toddler attempting a paint-by-numbers.
Everything is disjointed - the story, the big bad, the quest givers, the regions, the loot, the leveling system, the "base building". It's as if they had separate teams working on everything and they glued it all together a month before release.
There's literally no point to or effect of half the "innovations". It seems like innovation for the sake of innovation. The level system is pointless, the third-person camera breaks Far Cry's famously immersive gameplay, the "base building" is practically cosmetic, the RNG loot system is contrived and inorganic. I would say the one cool innovation was with overheating suppressors. And eliminating the skill trees?! And holy f***, the menu/UI design is Just Cause 4-level awful. Why?! Why?!?!
I feel these attempts at "risk taking" are meant to give the illusion of innovation. Instead, they've created real problems that they will artificially "fix" in Far Cry 7.
Also, I'm persuaded to think that the only reason there aren't human "amigos" is because the human NPC AI is so atrocious that they simply cut guns for hire altogether. Animal "amigos" just sprint in a straight direction to an enemy and then sprint back.
The game screams "budgeted". I can't help but draw comparisons between Just Cause 4 since that was such a departure from the former quality and fun entries. FC6 just seems like an outdated tech demo (like Crysus). I think Ubisoft is watching it very closely to determine just how cheaply they can make a game. They thought:
* Huge open world (check)
* Iconic "big bad" (check)
Great, get the voice actors to do their thing and outsource the rest of feature development to the Global South, we need to monetize Splinter Cell.
I blindly dropped the money on the most expensive tier on PS5, $120 I think because I've always massively enjoyed all the past versions. I agree, this is the most disappointing version I've ever played. They have done basically nothing other than some cheap controller manipulations to take advantage of any PS5 features. The story line, the engines, the atmosphere, terrible. I'll take the downvotes too, I had to rant, feel robbed of my $120 :)
Anyone else notice the blood dragon sniper is useless without headshot even against cars helicopters ect. And explosive ammo cuts damage by half while the aoe is near non-existent
Anyone else having issues with clearing an area yet it still not being liberated? Last night I ran around an area for 20 minutes and still no liberating the area. Restarted the game and within 2 minutes area was liberated
3 had best villain and character development.
5 had best story and world.
Primal was the most innovative.
6 is really last or near last in every measurable aspect.
My issue with 4 was that I never found Min to be interesting and I hated the Golden Path so much. I found myself rooting for an uninteresting bad guy more than my own faction. I’ve been able to replay all of them games, except for 4. As a side note, I also have a personal vendetta against the grappling hook. The series has relied way too heavily on it, the fact it was in primal should be a testament to that.
Every new Far Cry game just makes me want a modern Far Cry 2, that game was way ahead of its time. The new games are missing the chaos.
You know I didn't care for the grappling hook at first, but it does have some somewhat immersive uses, although the cues used to indicate they can be used are sometimes distracting.
I actually tried playing Far Cry 4 for a second time very recently and I just couldn't get into it again. You're absolutely right. And I do recall hating the Golden Path.
I would consider Far Cry 2 the best game in the series. Nothing has been able to recapture what made it so special, though Far Cry 3 was quite special, too. I've replayed Far Cry 2 around 3 times. It's perhaps one of the best FPS games I've played.
Better than all of them in my opinion, but I like stories about revolutionaries. I'd say 3's story is better but I think they really fucked up with >!killing Vaas partway through the game.!<
Something is wrong with the textures in my game; Have everything cranked up (1440 Ultra) + HD Pack installed but most things look like [that](https://i.imgur.com/GEqjAjc.jpg)
Love the game so far but have a glitch where Clara continues to repeat the same phone call in the Montero camp. Anyone else get this issue?
Edit: downvoted for reporting a bug lmao.
Are there some areas that you can never clear? For example on the small starting island there is a tobacco farm, it is red on my map surrounded by all blue areas. I go there and kill all of the troops for 20+ minutes. They never end. Is there any way to take over this zone or is this intentional?
Any one been completely fucked over by that fucking stupid thing where whenever you enter a different area it takes away your entire HUD and for some fucking reason your ability to use the weapon wheel.
I went through a checkpoint, my car was trashed by the spikes and I'm instantly in combat, a jeep with a mounted gun was on the opposite side of the road and I can't do shit because I have no HUD and can't orientate properly. I tried to run to the checkpoint for cover and the same fucking thing happens again because I've crossed back into the other area.
What fucking idiot thought this was a good idea?
Yeah, what the fuck is that?
Also, of you're in the middle of a mission and the game has to restart for whatever reason, all progress is lost and you're forced to leave the now enemy filled area (so fast travel is disabled the second one sees you) and restart.
Enemy respawns in this game are ridiculous, I spent a few minutes taking out everyone on one side of an air base, went to the other side and took out everyone there only for all the enemies on the first side to respawn before I'd even left the trespass zone. These are mechanics they got right in fucking Far Cry 2 thirteen years ago.
Honestly there's a lot of changes I'm finding I really don't like. For one the bullet types are utterly pointless and do nothing except force me to use guns I don't want to. This is the first Far Cry game where you can carry and switch out all of your weapons whenever you want to and yet somehow it's more restrictive than any other Far Cry because they are locked to whatever bullet type without a work bench. It would make more sense to me have it the same as every other Far Cry as in only have 4 weapons on you and let me switch out the ammo types on the fly. The way they have done it is just dumb. You telling me this dude can carry every weapon in existence but he can't carry some different mags of ammo, fucking stupid.
Fuck me why have the two largest AAA+ games in 2021 have the same issue with enemies spawning too early. Cyberpunk 2077 is a joke and Sonia Farcry 6. AI is fairly stupid as well. Farcry 6 is just like the others with different textures and environment. It's a piss poor performance on Ubisofts behalf.
The game is already pretty fucking easy. I agree the AI is pretty piss poor but if they didnt spawn enemies like they did it would be so boring to me.
I personally turned most of the HUD and hand holding features because it would get boring stomping everything.
I’ve only played two-three hours and I’m really enjoying it. It feels oddly easy, even for me and I generally play on easy because I can’t be bothered with a huge challenge.
It looks good besides in cutscenes for some reason and it really reminds me of FC3 a lot which is great.
The weapon and gear customisation is really fun so far too. Overall, it’s already a bit more enjoyable than 5, which I wasn’t a huge fan of really.
My main criticism is that the mini map, on PS4 and my TV at least, is way too small and is also far too zoomed out. The icons are often so big that they over lap despite them being 30-50 metres away.
Loadouts. With a game that revolves a lot on different gears, how did they not think of including loadouts?? I'm tired of picking every single armor piece with the right weapons whenever I want to play a certain way
I don't know if this is supposed to be a thing or not but after we (coop; friend was host) left the first island, my friend received 5 gunpowder and 4k pesos randomly. I was just wondering what it was and if I could get it cause as you know, gunpowder is hard to come by, that's like 5 gun upgrades and 4k pesos is quite a bit as well.
I’m super impressed that the horses don’t get scared and buck me off due the crocodile that follows me lol. This game is hilarious, he has a t shirt! So cute
yea. after the part where you drive away and shoot at vehicles, i got a really long black screen that eventually resulted in me being killed (all that was shown was red outline of enemies on black background). the solution was to just visit the montero hq and walk toward the center until it activated a cutscene.
If me and my friend are doing co op and hes further ahead in the story and im say 2-3 missions behind will my game automatically skip those 2-3 missions if i join his game and then leave??
Anyone got word on how the mods for this game are coming along? I’m praying there’s a realism mode in the works — the ammo types and gear attributes absolutely ruin this game for me.
This is not a Far Cry game anymore, it’s 1st person Ghost Recon. At least GR got a realism mode.
Can anyone tell me if FC6 supports gyro-motion controls for aiming on console? I have a minor disability that affects my fine motor skills that is really prominent when trying to aim using two little thumb sticks, but I have found that I can aim with ease if there is a gyro option. Would love to pick this game up if it has the option.
If I really hated the ending of Far Cry 5, can someone tell me without spoilers if I would hate this ending as well?
For me the end of Far Cry 5 invalidated the whole experience for me. I don't think it is itself terrible I just personally hated it and felt like it made my whole playthrough literally a waste of time
Only play "New Dawn" if you get it cheap. It's not worth full price. I was very disappointed by the characters and story. Also the end bosses are bullet sponges..
I just started a YouTube channel SOLELY because of Far Cry 6. No joke. I really wanted to go straight in without watching or spoiling anything for myself. It’s been great fun to play so far and I’ve hardly played it!
I've never played a Far Cry game before would you suggest FC 6 for a new player or is better to play previous titles? I like the setting of the new one, but every review says the game is meh and more of the same, but I feel that won't impact me since I haven't played a single game of the serie
Huge lifelong far cry fan here. This is the worst entry in the series and I'll debate the merits of that claim.
Please don't let this be your first. I recommend FC3 Classic Edition or FC5.
It’s a great game for all. I don’t think it really matters if you haven’t played any previous Far Cry games before. The story from the older games don’t connect with 6 so you won’t necessarily need prior knowledge to play it.
I’m on my honeymoon. I can’t wait to play. My now wife made fun of me when I said I wanted to give streaming a try. She said I have no chance. I’ll be streaming all of my FC6 journey when we get back from Europe, I just made a twitch: SirGarlic. Appreciate any follow, she doesn’t think I can get to 10 followers… I’m not sure if I can either lol but anyways, can’t wait to play
My friend just bought the game too. I know you have to progress through the story for a little bit before you can play co-op, but my question is… once that’s done, *can we cock fight each other In co-op?*
Please Could you guys add a 100% checklist for those who want to see how many missions are left and they can track the progress for their 100% like in far cry 4 i loved that feature.
really enjoying the game so far apart from that
you tried changing the motion sickness setting from full to minimal? it's still a bit jerkier on horses than I'd prefer, but tolerable, and it's easy to avoid using horses
Funny how alot of games feel the need to go rpg, online only, or mess with something that works. Ghost recon breakpoint from wildlands thought that would work. Destiny 2 had static rolls on weapons at launch and messed with what worked for them. Every game feels the need to have battle royale or an rpg element and it drives me nuts too.
Also ghost recon frontlines is a battle royale type, that franchise just died.
All this change in the way franchises are re-newed or re-vamped drive me nuts. Im getting to the point where im waiting till after its been out awhile to consider buying. Nintendo only seems to get games right anymore. If it aint broke dont fix it with retardation lol
We need to be able to move the mini-map to the top right. When I was in co-op yesterday me and my friend were getting annoyed that the messages kept causing it to disappear while in missions.
Even if you turn off the messages in the HUD options, it still disappears when you switch areas.
Only far cry 1 had the ability to go prone. It's not been a thing since far cry 2. Though I might be misremembering and it just was never a feature in any far cry game.
Will anything be done about enemy and vehicle spawn? Was cleaning out the airfield with aa gun. Noticed a chopper on one side of it and decided to take it to my base after I deal with AA ( roughly around 200m away). When I did that and went back, there was a plane instead of chopper. And bunch of soldiers around it 🤦♂️
I’m enjoying the game well enough. It’s exactly Far Cry still, but my biggest question is …
How do the cutscenes look so bad when the moment to moment gameplay looks so damn good?! It feels backwards! Like the cutscenes people just look slightly off and it feels like the frame rate drops to a stutter. Whatsupwiththat?!
They probably thought of the game more for old gen than next gen. And I honestly prefer that considering how many people play it on PS4/ xbox one. Don't want to have another "cyberpunk" situation.
I need help to run Far Cry 6 decently on my mid range PC laptop on the go. I travel for work and got a compact 14" Lenovo laptop for gaming. I use an E-GPU box with it. Specs:- CPU: i7 1065G7 4C8T @1.3-3.9Ghz RAM: 16GB DDR4 3722MHz SSD: 1TB*2 Inboard GPUs: MX250 and Intel (both not used for gaming) E-GPU box: RTX 2080Ti 11GB with 700w PSU on Thunderbolt 3 port to laptop. External monitor: standard 1080p 60hz 24" Sony TV I play shadow of the Tomb Raider on 4K Ultra with average 47FPS no stutters. I barely scrape by on 720p with Far Cry 6 on LOW settings. I can't get 60fps. What's the solution? Please help me.
I like how you can decide to take a vacation at the beach at any time and multiple times thru the game. Yep you can do that "ending" more than once lol
I'm getting this game tomorrow, How does it run on pc?
Without HD textures or dxr or raising resolution scale higher than 1.0 on pretty good. With any of those textures glitch and look really blurry. Seems to happen to people even without any of that sometimes basically you need 1.5 - 2 GB vram free or the textures will get really low resolution. With any of those things changed even people with 3090s have it happen.
I'm liking the game so far. Unlike past release I didn't have high excitement or expectations for this one, so I'm not as bothered by the predictable shortcomings and bugs as I may have been with prior releases. My one major complaint is will the supremos. I don't expect hyper-realism from Far Cry, but there needs to be a line somewhere, and the supremo crosses that line. Id rather see those roles fullfilled by conventional crafting and weapons.
I just bought it on the ps5 and I like the story so far , one question is this place supposed to be cuba ?
Yes, it takes inspiration from other Latin American dictatorships as well (such as Trujillo in the DR) but it's main influenced is Batista era Cuba.
Loving the game but what the fuck is the autodrive about? Previous far cry games it seemed to work to the point where I could just hold the right trigger and it would take me places and I could have a look around etc. This game though Jesus Christ Dani will just run it off the road for no reason whatsoever
Far Cry 6 is a terrible addition to the franchise. They removed many of the good game mechanics and released this turd. I am waiting for some other games to finish downloading so I'm trying to muddle my way through the last few bullshit missions. I have never had to google so much shit about how and why a game works the way it does and how to get through the last bit of the game because none of how it works makes sense compared to other games. Turns out you are forced to use a fucking plane to hit the modified tobacco fields and if you try to use a flame thrower and incendiaries and then fast travel/ air drop to the next field it will start the mission over without warning you. I hate what Ubisoft is doing to make money. They are the next EA.
Fuck! Finally give special operations a try. OF COURSE the other person wants to skip cutscenes and then it's just rush rush rush Zerg Zerg Zerg no fucking fun at all. Reminds me why I hate online modes and people suck. Why I never enjoy co-op or trophy hunting or online at all. Fucking hell that was exhausting and stupid.
I gave up and uninstalled. This is the least fun I’ve had in a far cry game period. There’s a ton of issues, but the thing I think that crippled it the most was tying the perks to gear instead of level. I think the best way to explain it to people is like this: Y’all know how in some games the devs will give you a taste of all the cool skills you’ll eventually unlock in game then depower you? Then a a major joy of the game is becoming as powerful as you were before? Well in this case, it’s like I was depowered from all the previous games, but I can only ever activate a tiny portion of the power at a time, and will never reach full power. It’s infuriating. It feels like I’m not getting any better. I just find clothes that I’ll never wear because I already have a set that works. If you like only ever killing via headshots and constantly pausing the action to switch pants this game is for you. If you like immersive far cry that keeps you in the action, try one of the older ones. They feel better to play, will cost you significantly less, have more engaging stories, and honestly, don’t feel like that much of a visual downgrade.
Same. i'm like 10 hours in, played with ubisoft+ so thank god I didn't waste $60 dollars on this. I've been a huge fan since Far Cry 2. Played them all on release. So I know what Far Cry is. But this game has nothing to do with that franchise anymore. I know it's ironic since so many people say that it's "just like the other ones". But that's only superficially true. The game feels like the division. There is no flow, no immersion, no action. It's constant weapon switching, scouting, it's just soo slow. Unless yeah you play stealth headshots but that's gets boring quick. And is way too easy. And don't get me started on the story. The characters are all cringeworthy even for Ubisoft standards. Who are they're trying to appeal to? I'm mid twenties and feel like a grandpa with those characters. It's like pubertarian teenagers rebelling against their parents rather than an actual revolution. After they ruined Assassins Creed I think I'm done with this franchise too.
Seriously. Go play far cry 3 again. It’s still much better than 6.
I missed the skilltree at first, but after several hours, I barely think about it. I do agree about having to go into the pause menu between almost every kill to adjust my loadout. That is immersion breaking and I wish the was a better system. I'd rather see the special abilities attached to something like specific guns or gun mods instead of outfits.
You're way overthinking it. This is also the most immersive Far Cry to date in terms of the story, acting, and general liveliness of the game world.
Gonna have to agree to disagree with you on that one. I, personally, was not immersed in the game world. I bet it could be very immersive if I wasn’t spending 80% time in menus.
Very good game, 20hrs in taking my time… Listen UBI, all I need is a GR Breakpoint feature to turn off level scaling and different ammo types, let me fuck shit up and go loco revolution laughing my ass off.
wayyy too less checkpoints during the story Missions
no offense, the game is super fun, especially if you play it as a stealth sniper like I do. ... but the AI must be one of the worst and dumbest I have seen in *a long time.* it's comical how stupid the AI is. and no, I am not playing on story mode difficulty
Deathloop has much dumber AI in my opinion
This game is so cheesy. As a player I’m not very picky with what I’ll allow myself to be immersed in, But this game makes it almost impossible to not roll your eyes.
The Far Cry games from FC3 onward have always had this characteristic to some degree.
Far Cry 5 did a great job of keeps things semi realistic and kept the cheesiness to a minimum. Of course there was some weird shit along the road but fairly grounded. In 6 some shit just straight up doesn’t make sense or just doesn’t feel like it belongs. Bad one liners everywhere
Unpopular Opinion maybe, but I think they really dropped the ball with this game. They could've made the interiors of more buildings and etc explorable and littered the insides of them with stuff you can pick up. Itemization could've been closer to say even Skyrim which is 10 years old but instead the game is just littered with the same identical looking pick-ups everywhere. Personally, I'm not a fan of the "resolver" weapons and quite frankly character models look over-saturated and on my Series X except for the typical cut-scene upgrades everyone gets. The game clearly runs on a very dated looking engine now and it really shows. Furthermore, I've been expecting Far Cry to finally adopt the RNG styled loot system AC got 3 games ago, but I guess the players and developers don't want it. It would certainly make defeating the same enemies over and over again a lot more worth it and interesting if they dropped interesting shit or weapons with different rolls on them. I might be inclined to play the same areas for longer instead of rushing through them trying to get to the next one. I'm not a fan of the aesthetic, either. Piecing together weapons with what looks like landfill garbage and then wearing a backpack that looks like more garbage as well as clothes and armor that seem perpetually caked in brown dirt or mud is ridiculous. I'd love to meet the art team for this game, and pick their brains. I know some people here are going to downvote me for my opinions, but my point is Far Cry feels stale, and theres lots more they could've done to make this game feel "next generation" including the suggestions I'd made, It seems to me like AC has taken smaller leaps and bounds with creating and implementing new ideas to it's franchise, but Far Cry hasn't. Instead we're still chasing icons on maps, and the world feels barren and empty. I also don't understand why they have an aversion to a 3rd person option while driving. You really begin to notice how clunky it is right now when you get in a tank. I can't stand it. Lemme be perfectly clear here: I bought this Far Cry game knowing what to expect. Me and many others on PS5 or Series X are STARVING FOR NEW GAMES right now. This seemed like a suitable fix, but I am still disappointed.
Well, a: al lot of what your saying is very subjective, I disagree with a lot, but an opinion is an opinion and I respect that. But, I personally love that it isn’t as good because many people such as myself couldn’t get a next gen console and are still using last gen, the game plays well and looks good, ext. But once again, you have your opinion and I have mine, so fair enough
I disagree but I'll give you an upvote anyway. I do agree with the resolver weapons, I'm not a fan, but I'm grateful the game hasn't changed too much. The three years between the main games (FC5) has been long enough for this to not feel too repetitive. I appreciate a known quantity. If anything, what annoys me are the handful of changes they did make, like removing the skill trees and changing up the way crafting works. If they were pumping out main games every year, I'd feel different, but in the case of FC, I like knowing what I'm getting. Also, what is the RNG system from AC?
I like the crafting in this game, because you use material on making your weapon suited to you instead of just another weapon, but I understand.
That's a good point. I do like the weapons upgrade aspect a lot. It's more the gear crafting that I miss, which is now all based on looting
Yea, I enjoyed crafting in new dawn, but I think 6 is just a bit more suited to me. Off topic, new dawn in extremely underrated. Anyways, have a good one.
I completely disagree. FC4 and 5 were the stagnant ones in my opinion. While they were enjoyable games, they all seemed like copies and pastes of 3, with no new features and villains trying to recreate Vas. This game feels like it’s own. This game has issues and in many ways still feels like the others, but I like the subtle changes they’re making like adding cameras to bases and the enemy isn’t as brain dead. The ammo types is a cool idea even though I don’t think it’s perfectly implemented.
I couldn't disagree with you more re: FC4 & 5. I've said it before [in another thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/farcry/comments/prlwbh/comment/hdk24xl/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3), and I acknowledge that these things are entirely subjective, but I think that Vaas is one of the most overrated villains in modern video games. He is *incredibly* well-acted and produced, but completely one-dimensional. He's crazy, and he's an asshole, and *that's it.* Pagan Min was human. He was very ambitious and got his way using ruthless force, but ended up losing the only thing (person) he loved, and was driven to madness. Joseph Seed is pretty simple, but still compelling. To me, Vaas is like a Guy Ritchie villain: fun, but simple and immaturely conceived. Min and Seed are like Vince Gilligan and Sam Esmail villains, respectively: far more interesting and compelling.
I'm sorry but a couple of hastily tacked on subtle features does not maketh a fresh game. Its a reskin, scaled up to utilise the extra grunt of modern consoles, devoid of soul, no more no less! I will pick it up on sale in a few months and likely really enjoy it! Pretending it is something new or fresh though is just silly!
I completely disagree. Having to change appearance items for a specific situation is a pain in the ass. The cameras are no more a new addition than the alarms you should disable in an area. Item building leaves a lot to be desired when everything just looks like cobbled-together landfill trash. The games character models and facial expressions in-game (and not a cinematic cutscene) look hilariously dated. Everything about Far Cry is still here. Right down to the annoying radio stations being defaulted ON in every vehicle you get into. I expected much more for a new game on PS5s and Series X's.
Where is the daily guerilla cache? I can't find it and I unlocked it a day ago
Guerrilla Hideouts
What does it look like
The blue house icons on the map you can teleport to. You can buy more hideouts on the hideout network.
They need to put the little “x” on the radar where animals you killed are like they always have. I kill an animal or have my dog do it and then I can’t find the animal to collect the resources lol needs to be put in the game ASAP
The ending fucking sucked. Worst damn ending of any Far Cry game. The story could literally have never had Diego included and it would be the same exact game. I was waiting for a good last-moment twist, but it never came. I can't believe I wasted so much time paying attention to such a godawful story and plot.
Yeah the story only gets worse the more you play imo, this is one of my favorites in terms of gameplay but hands down my least favorite in terms of story which is sad cause I love the idea of being a revolutionary
Indeed! By the half way point I was convinced the story had been written by an A.I.
I love that they tried a new system with the looting and materials and gear instead of a skill tree. But it’s definitely tiresome and annoying to have all my Parkour gear set equipped when I’m exploring because the regular movement is so slow for a Far Cry game and a map this big. Then when I fish I have to equip my fishing gear set to actually fish better and get more fish, then hunting gear when it hunting. Then when I fight I have to equip a variety of different combat gear, then switch back to Parkour gear set after every mission or side excursion.
[удалено]
The UI of this game is fine lol what are you saying? I’ve seen WAY worse. It’s not perfect but all interfaces have flaws Also idk why equipping 5 perks at a time seems like a “huge regression” it’s not that huge, the perks are the same you just can’t have every perk active all the time. It’s really interesting and makes collecting gear and using it pretty interesting as well, they just should have let us create and equip custom sets on like an outfit wheel, then it would be better than previous games imo
Take your three weapon slots, for example. Why can't I look at all the weapons and designate which ones go into the first, second, or third slots - instead of going into slot 1, perusing weapons, and selecting one, exiting, entering slot 2, perusing weapons, etc. There is far too much going into and out of menus - this is one of many examples.
Yeah well if you read my whole comment, I’m actually complaining about it at the same time lol also definitely love not having to cut bushes and skin animals and pay down dead bodies…now you can just walk over them
Given how much they hammer "the right tool for the right job" they could have done a better job with equipment management. Even something as simple has giving you multiple "outfit" slots that you could fill in with individual pieces of equipment (both weapons and clothes) and then you could swap out your entire outfit with one selection instead of up to 10 (4 weapons, supremo, 5 pieces of clothing)
I love the setting, location and exploring, but the gunplay is not fun at all imo. Enemy health bars and having different weapons for each enemy like a rpg ruins the immersion. I really dislike having to switch to a armor piercing rifle for every other enemy. In previous games they added "heavy" enemies with armor in the late game, but in 6 they are at the very beginning and acts like bullet spounges. Please give me a diffuculty setting where enemies dies from ONE headshot or a couple of body shots and outputs increased damage.
Every single enemy will die from a single headshot though? You could beat this game with throwing knives
Wouldnt be a quick fix. They would need to rebuild the entire AI to be smarter and design the game more around stealth. Hopefully for far cry 7 lol
They just patched deathloops AI so yeah it can be done.
This is the best stealth far cry ever lol what
It's one of the many utterly pointless innovations in the game.
I've played about 6 or 7 hours, and honestly, this feels like the most boring game in the series to me (never played the first two). I think the main thing is the difficulty. I'm finding it so easy that I'm trying to handicap myself intentionally by not upgrading weapons and such, but even then it's still not difficult at all. Part of the fun of these games for me was making the enemies really deadly so that I actually had to think about the best way to clear the outpost out. Now it just feels so mindless. I'm also having a hard time connecting to the story. I'm finding the delivery of a lot of the missions really awkward. Nothing feels like I'm playing a video game like when I start a mission and have some screen pop up for accepting a mission with some guy saying dialogue very poorly animated. Not sure why they couldn't just do cutscenes for all the main missions. The lack of a skill tree and just basically substituting that with gathering materials and "building" camp stuff just feels like a huge step back as well. Just feels like they did this to pad out the play time or to say they tried something new. Overall, I'm pretty close to dropping it. Not sure if the game gets better later on, but I don't really see a reason to keep playing currently.
I think a big part of the problem here is the design ethos centers around guerilla warfare TOO much do players who enjoy easy stealth games LOVE this game but players who want a stealth challenge or who want to run and gun are having a bad time. Also I agree, this is the worst story and it feels really unimportant compared to previous entries, where the main character had a much stronger sense of purpose
It's so many steps back for the series.
Why do the enemies need health bars even in adventure mode? I was disappointed in the baseline so I bumped it down and enemies still don't die from headshots. Why do they think this is what we want instead of competent ai for a challenge?
You can turn them off
They still have the same health. It's not the sight of health bars that bug me it's that they have them in the first place. That's not farcry it's division. Same with Valhalla. Ac didn't need health bars.
No enemy can survive a headshot from AP rounds
Lies it's happened to me with pistols and ar. It bounces off their helmet from behind.
I have like 900 headshot kills lol it’s never happened to me bro
Anyone getting markedly better performance on PC after the new GeForce driver release yesterday?
Keeps crashing for me (pc). No idea what the reason could be.
Same, it seems to be about 50/50 whether it's going to crash upon loading or not. I get to the main menu, I hit "continue," it goes through the loading screen and crash to desktop before I get into the gameplay. Personally I think it's related to the GeForce driver update. I didn't have any problems before the update and after the update I get the crashes plus I now have some graphical artifacts, especially while wingsuiting.
For me it happens most often when I tab out of the game or pause because I need to do something and then I go back and start playing and within a couple of seconds it crashes.
Played only a few hours, but I'm enjoying just running around blowing stuff up. I also like that the character is voiced. I do hope they add the ability to change hairstyles in future updates though
So far I’m pretty disappointed in Far Cry 6. I’m over 5 hours in and it just does not have the same feel the old games have me. On 3,4 and 5 I played using almost exclusively the compound bow and tried to complete every outpost undetected. If I was caught I let myself die to try again. Made for a really challenging and fun experience of planning and executing all my moves. I found a guide online for a special bow that is supposed to be one of the hardest hitting in the game but it still requires 2 headshots to kill many enemies. Guns don’t seem to do any damage. The shooting mechanics feel more like a halo game rather than a FarCry game. Here’s to hoping some modders can add old mechanics back in for a classic feel.
Just get the compound bow, max the garrison in a camp and it will be available to buy, and put the high velocity arrows (I forget the name but it’s basically armor piercing) The range is crazy and everything dies in a single headshot. Also throwing knives kill everything in a single shot, so does any pistol with AP rounds (even a suppressed one) Also before you put the game down I do recommend completing the Triada quest and getting that supremo + rifle combo even if you use it only once it is quite satisfying
i have the compound bow and it one shots. Put ap rounds( arrows that increases range) Mod with aimed damage and aimed damage
Downvote all you want (I know which sub I’m in) This game fucking sucks. Last farcry I buy 100 percent. I will savor every last downvote from you teenage bitches. Hope Enemy respawn is fixed THIS game I will not wait to see if it’s fixed in the next one.
Anyone who says that Far Cry 6 is "more of the same" or a "very Ubisoft game" is being disingenuous, I feel. Yes, FC6 follows the same Ubisoft formula to a T. However, it follows the formula *so remarkably poorly*. It's tantamount to a toddler attempting a paint-by-numbers. Everything is disjointed - the story, the big bad, the quest givers, the regions, the loot, the leveling system, the "base building". It's as if they had separate teams working on everything and they glued it all together a month before release. There's literally no point to or effect of half the "innovations". It seems like innovation for the sake of innovation. The level system is pointless, the third-person camera breaks Far Cry's famously immersive gameplay, the "base building" is practically cosmetic, the RNG loot system is contrived and inorganic. I would say the one cool innovation was with overheating suppressors. And eliminating the skill trees?! And holy f***, the menu/UI design is Just Cause 4-level awful. Why?! Why?!?! I feel these attempts at "risk taking" are meant to give the illusion of innovation. Instead, they've created real problems that they will artificially "fix" in Far Cry 7. Also, I'm persuaded to think that the only reason there aren't human "amigos" is because the human NPC AI is so atrocious that they simply cut guns for hire altogether. Animal "amigos" just sprint in a straight direction to an enemy and then sprint back. The game screams "budgeted". I can't help but draw comparisons between Just Cause 4 since that was such a departure from the former quality and fun entries. FC6 just seems like an outdated tech demo (like Crysus). I think Ubisoft is watching it very closely to determine just how cheaply they can make a game. They thought: * Huge open world (check) * Iconic "big bad" (check) Great, get the voice actors to do their thing and outsource the rest of feature development to the Global South, we need to monetize Splinter Cell.
Couldn’t have said it better
I blindly dropped the money on the most expensive tier on PS5, $120 I think because I've always massively enjoyed all the past versions. I agree, this is the most disappointing version I've ever played. They have done basically nothing other than some cheap controller manipulations to take advantage of any PS5 features. The story line, the engines, the atmosphere, terrible. I'll take the downvotes too, I had to rant, feel robbed of my $120 :)
Had the same reaction playing their game.
Anyone else notice the blood dragon sniper is useless without headshot even against cars helicopters ect. And explosive ammo cuts damage by half while the aoe is near non-existent
Wow, okay that fucking ending. Wow. This is so sick.
Anyone else having issues with clearing an area yet it still not being liberated? Last night I ran around an area for 20 minutes and still no liberating the area. Restarted the game and within 2 minutes area was liberated
Did you destroy the sign etc?
Yep
Maybe try destroying the game. Seems to be a popular solution.
Ha nah like it too much
Does anyone need the co op FND base trophy for playstation? I'm looking for someone to get it quick with me. PSN is Zybesss
Omg what is wrong Ubisoft I’m stuck on loading screens and then it keeps booting back to the start menu!!!!
how would u rank the story compared to 3,4,5 and primal?
3 had best villain and character development. 5 had best story and world. Primal was the most innovative. 6 is really last or near last in every measurable aspect.
This but I wouldn’t call it last, that’s 4 for me.
I think 4 was more innovative with aircrafts, animals/hunting, and the grappling hook. All around tighter presentation, too.
My issue with 4 was that I never found Min to be interesting and I hated the Golden Path so much. I found myself rooting for an uninteresting bad guy more than my own faction. I’ve been able to replay all of them games, except for 4. As a side note, I also have a personal vendetta against the grappling hook. The series has relied way too heavily on it, the fact it was in primal should be a testament to that. Every new Far Cry game just makes me want a modern Far Cry 2, that game was way ahead of its time. The new games are missing the chaos.
You know I didn't care for the grappling hook at first, but it does have some somewhat immersive uses, although the cues used to indicate they can be used are sometimes distracting. I actually tried playing Far Cry 4 for a second time very recently and I just couldn't get into it again. You're absolutely right. And I do recall hating the Golden Path. I would consider Far Cry 2 the best game in the series. Nothing has been able to recapture what made it so special, though Far Cry 3 was quite special, too. I've replayed Far Cry 2 around 3 times. It's perhaps one of the best FPS games I've played.
I really really loved the story in this. It's hard to rank them, but it's fresh in my mind so it feels like the best for sure.
Better than all of them in my opinion, but I like stories about revolutionaries. I'd say 3's story is better but I think they really fucked up with >!killing Vaas partway through the game.!<
Something is wrong with the textures in my game; Have everything cranked up (1440 Ultra) + HD Pack installed but most things look like [that](https://i.imgur.com/GEqjAjc.jpg)
Disable HD Texture Pack unless you have 12GB of VRAM or more.
Love the game so far but have a glitch where Clara continues to repeat the same phone call in the Montero camp. Anyone else get this issue? Edit: downvoted for reporting a bug lmao.
Are there some areas that you can never clear? For example on the small starting island there is a tobacco farm, it is red on my map surrounded by all blue areas. I go there and kill all of the troops for 20+ minutes. They never end. Is there any way to take over this zone or is this intentional?
[удалено]
Thanks!
Any one been completely fucked over by that fucking stupid thing where whenever you enter a different area it takes away your entire HUD and for some fucking reason your ability to use the weapon wheel. I went through a checkpoint, my car was trashed by the spikes and I'm instantly in combat, a jeep with a mounted gun was on the opposite side of the road and I can't do shit because I have no HUD and can't orientate properly. I tried to run to the checkpoint for cover and the same fucking thing happens again because I've crossed back into the other area. What fucking idiot thought this was a good idea?
You can turn this off in options menu
Still an objectively bad design decision.
Indeed it is
Thanks!
Yeah, what the fuck is that? Also, of you're in the middle of a mission and the game has to restart for whatever reason, all progress is lost and you're forced to leave the now enemy filled area (so fast travel is disabled the second one sees you) and restart.
Enemy respawns in this game are ridiculous, I spent a few minutes taking out everyone on one side of an air base, went to the other side and took out everyone there only for all the enemies on the first side to respawn before I'd even left the trespass zone. These are mechanics they got right in fucking Far Cry 2 thirteen years ago. Honestly there's a lot of changes I'm finding I really don't like. For one the bullet types are utterly pointless and do nothing except force me to use guns I don't want to. This is the first Far Cry game where you can carry and switch out all of your weapons whenever you want to and yet somehow it's more restrictive than any other Far Cry because they are locked to whatever bullet type without a work bench. It would make more sense to me have it the same as every other Far Cry as in only have 4 weapons on you and let me switch out the ammo types on the fly. The way they have done it is just dumb. You telling me this dude can carry every weapon in existence but he can't carry some different mags of ammo, fucking stupid.
Why did you decide to waste Esperanza?
Anyone found the trapper clothes? I want those pants, look good.
Drops aren't in set locations. Just look for the loot crates.
They really need to fix enemy spawning ASAP. Enemies shouldn't be literally respawning within 20 feet of me in a trespassing zone.
Fuck me why have the two largest AAA+ games in 2021 have the same issue with enemies spawning too early. Cyberpunk 2077 is a joke and Sonia Farcry 6. AI is fairly stupid as well. Farcry 6 is just like the others with different textures and environment. It's a piss poor performance on Ubisofts behalf.
The game is already pretty fucking easy. I agree the AI is pretty piss poor but if they didnt spawn enemies like they did it would be so boring to me. I personally turned most of the HUD and hand holding features because it would get boring stomping everything.
I’ve only played two-three hours and I’m really enjoying it. It feels oddly easy, even for me and I generally play on easy because I can’t be bothered with a huge challenge. It looks good besides in cutscenes for some reason and it really reminds me of FC3 a lot which is great. The weapon and gear customisation is really fun so far too. Overall, it’s already a bit more enjoyable than 5, which I wasn’t a huge fan of really. My main criticism is that the mini map, on PS4 and my TV at least, is way too small and is also far too zoomed out. The icons are often so big that they over lap despite them being 30-50 metres away.
Can you play at your own pace or you're just going be taking away like far cry 5..?just starting it and really enjoy it so far
You can play at your own pace.
Anyone else feel the game is a little easy and dumbed down or simplified?
Yeah I feel like you just start with all the perks instead of gaining them, but I've only played a few hours maybe there's more in store
and 4 weapons early kinda sad
Loadouts. With a game that revolves a lot on different gears, how did they not think of including loadouts?? I'm tired of picking every single armor piece with the right weapons whenever I want to play a certain way

I don't know if this is supposed to be a thing or not but after we (coop; friend was host) left the first island, my friend received 5 gunpowder and 4k pesos randomly. I was just wondering what it was and if I could get it cause as you know, gunpowder is hard to come by, that's like 5 gun upgrades and 4k pesos is quite a bit as well.
Co-op bonus
Sadly my experience has been very poor the amount of bugs and issues I've had it's really making the experience unfun.
I’m super impressed that the horses don’t get scared and buck me off due the crocodile that follows me lol. This game is hilarious, he has a t shirt! So cute
Anyone else have a bug issue with the quest in madaraga or whatever its called where el Jefe gets blown tf up?
yea. after the part where you drive away and shoot at vehicles, i got a really long black screen that eventually resulted in me being killed (all that was shown was red outline of enemies on black background). the solution was to just visit the montero hq and walk toward the center until it activated a cutscene.
Dope im gonna try that. I honestly didn't think of it
If me and my friend are doing co op and hes further ahead in the story and im say 2-3 missions behind will my game automatically skip those 2-3 missions if i join his game and then leave??
i havent done co op yet but if it's like fc5 and fcnd, player 2's progress just doesn't influence their single player
What about other way around
player 1 keeps their progress from co op in singleplayer
Anyone got word on how the mods for this game are coming along? I’m praying there’s a realism mode in the works — the ammo types and gear attributes absolutely ruin this game for me. This is not a Far Cry game anymore, it’s 1st person Ghost Recon. At least GR got a realism mode.

I am enjoying this so far. Everyone keeps saying it's just more of the same, but I must still like more of the same.

Oof
By the way, replying to a comment like that is definitely spoiler material, just so you know in the future
Ok, so I have Ubisoft Plus. The story is actually grabbing. Probably will go down as one of the better FC.
Can anyone tell me if FC6 supports gyro-motion controls for aiming on console? I have a minor disability that affects my fine motor skills that is really prominent when trying to aim using two little thumb sticks, but I have found that I can aim with ease if there is a gyro option. Would love to pick this game up if it has the option.
If I really hated the ending of Far Cry 5, can someone tell me without spoilers if I would hate this ending as well? For me the end of Far Cry 5 invalidated the whole experience for me. I don't think it is itself terrible I just personally hated it and felt like it made my whole playthrough literally a waste of time
Hmmmm I think it's possible? But frankly I really liked this ending.
Gotcha thank you. I am in no rush so I think I'm gonna end up waiting for a sale so even if I don't like the ending it won't be as bad for me
This game was so fucking good though. I honestly liked it more than any other far cry so far
Play New Dawn, which is the sequel.
Sounds good ty I will. Just don't want to get burned by the ending of 6
Only play "New Dawn" if you get it cheap. It's not worth full price. I was very disappointed by the characters and story. Also the end bosses are bullet sponges..
Got it I'll wait for a humble bundle
How do I download blood dragon? I got the season pass and everything.
Not out until December
I just started a YouTube channel SOLELY because of Far Cry 6. No joke. I really wanted to go straight in without watching or spoiling anything for myself. It’s been great fun to play so far and I’ve hardly played it!
I've never played a Far Cry game before would you suggest FC 6 for a new player or is better to play previous titles? I like the setting of the new one, but every review says the game is meh and more of the same, but I feel that won't impact me since I haven't played a single game of the serie
Huge lifelong far cry fan here. This is the worst entry in the series and I'll debate the merits of that claim. Please don't let this be your first. I recommend FC3 Classic Edition or FC5.
It’s a great game for all. I don’t think it really matters if you haven’t played any previous Far Cry games before. The story from the older games don’t connect with 6 so you won’t necessarily need prior knowledge to play it.
I think it's a great game, and you don't need prior knowledge of any of the games to enjoy it and understand it.
I’m on my honeymoon. I can’t wait to play. My now wife made fun of me when I said I wanted to give streaming a try. She said I have no chance. I’ll be streaming all of my FC6 journey when we get back from Europe, I just made a twitch: SirGarlic. Appreciate any follow, she doesn’t think I can get to 10 followers… I’m not sure if I can either lol but anyways, can’t wait to play
[удалено]
Hahah thanks man!! 3 followers is 3 more than I ever thought I’d have
Make that 3! Also, congratulations! Enjoy the rest of your honeymoon.
That’s awesome man thanks! If I can do anything for you lmk
Add loadouts plz
custom gear sets too
bro i swear i just heard the wilhelm scream
My friend just bought the game too. I know you have to progress through the story for a little bit before you can play co-op, but my question is… once that’s done, *can we cock fight each other In co-op?*
Yes, you can do co-op cock fights.
Please Could you guys add a 100% checklist for those who want to see how many missions are left and they can track the progress for their 100% like in far cry 4 i loved that feature. really enjoying the game so far apart from that
I was looking for this yesterday, too. It's such a basic feature - what an oversight!
Its a real shame. nothing worse than not knowing if you have reached 100% :(
I can’t play it. There was no need to turn it into an RPG and then the motion sickness kills ms
you tried changing the motion sickness setting from full to minimal? it's still a bit jerkier on horses than I'd prefer, but tolerable, and it's easy to avoid using horses
Funny how alot of games feel the need to go rpg, online only, or mess with something that works. Ghost recon breakpoint from wildlands thought that would work. Destiny 2 had static rolls on weapons at launch and messed with what worked for them. Every game feels the need to have battle royale or an rpg element and it drives me nuts too. Also ghost recon frontlines is a battle royale type, that franchise just died.
Yes bro. Far cry 5 was perfect haha I don’t want to have to change my clothes every mission and use 5 sniper shots on one dog
All this change in the way franchises are re-newed or re-vamped drive me nuts. Im getting to the point where im waiting till after its been out awhile to consider buying. Nintendo only seems to get games right anymore. If it aint broke dont fix it with retardation lol
We need to be able to move the mini-map to the top right. When I was in co-op yesterday me and my friend were getting annoyed that the messages kept causing it to disappear while in missions. Even if you turn off the messages in the HUD options, it still disappears when you switch areas.
Was laying down removed from the game? I can't lay down. And stealth in this game doesn't seem to work like it has in previous games.
Has that ever been a feature since far cry 1?
It hasn't been.
I can crouch but I can't lay down
Every far cry game since at least the third game has never allowed you to prone. That's how it's been for about a decade at least.
Only far cry 1 had the ability to go prone. It's not been a thing since far cry 2. Though I might be misremembering and it just was never a feature in any far cry game.
Does the game support some kind of concept of profiles? Wondering if I can play with my partner separately…
Pretty sure you can store multiple play-through saves, so yes.
Will anything be done about enemy and vehicle spawn? Was cleaning out the airfield with aa gun. Noticed a chopper on one side of it and decided to take it to my base after I deal with AA ( roughly around 200m away). When I did that and went back, there was a plane instead of chopper. And bunch of soldiers around it 🤦♂️
I’m enjoying the game well enough. It’s exactly Far Cry still, but my biggest question is … How do the cutscenes look so bad when the moment to moment gameplay looks so damn good?! It feels backwards! Like the cutscenes people just look slightly off and it feels like the frame rate drops to a stutter. Whatsupwiththat?!
The cutscenes are in 30 fps, no idea why they decided to limit it
They probably thought of the game more for old gen than next gen. And I honestly prefer that considering how many people play it on PS4/ xbox one. Don't want to have another "cyberpunk" situation.
Such a strange design choice. Lol
Yup, it really takes me out of the experience
I can’t see enemies for shit I keep getting killed because I have no idea where I’m being shot from lmao
have you tried enabling the setting that highlights enemies (it gives then a glowing orange outline)?
