    Tried it, played it enough considering I didn't have much to spend time on at that time. But let's not open a new thread about it... o_O

    I wouldnt say horrible, that word i'd save for something like The WarZ or whatever it was called.

    FarCry 3 however was imo, a very bland and empty 'check list' kind of a thing.

    • Ingredients hunting, in an fps - really. That and (not even the elder scrolls pulled this crap) making a wallet for f/s, if such thing is incorporated into a game, then you know the devs had absolutely nothing of any real interest to offer vs any other fps game.
    • Cave diving and getting nothing but a couple of coins and junk. 'Oh sorry, you need some hind to make a slightly larger wallet!'.
    • Stupid AI, some of the worst this gen.
    • GFx were meh, should called it 'Far Cartoony'.
    • Empty world.
    • Hud, couldn't careless as mods fixed this along with a patch.
    • Guns felt non existent, no real feedback.

    I agree. Far Cry 2 had far better AI although "casual" players would complain they were just cheaty/cheap. When in reality, you just can't sit on a hill sniping and never be found just because you have a silencer.

    I just wish Far Cry 2 didn't have the respawning checkpoints as it made the game feel far too long. Besides that it was a much better game than 3, although I still had good fun with it. Mostly because of all the cool tricks you can do with the relevant unlocks in the skill tree.

    To be far, if you haven't played it yet, then you probably shouldnt of have entered a thread of who's title makes it obvious that its about the game and its high and low points, especially this long after a games release.

    But, i do agree that spoilers should be a requirement when talking about the death of key characters and other story plots of the game.

    I never finished it.
    I just honestly hated it when objects glowed, in any game. It messes up the immersion.

    I got it free when I bought my kids and wifes amd 6800k, I hate to say it but the game IS TERRIBLE! Nothing special about it at all, at least not for me lol. Id pay maybe $5 bucks for it if I didnt already own it~Splinter cell Blacklist-Now thats a game!!!

    ^ I concur :p
    On a serious note, i actually enjoyed FC3 a lot, it was a great experience overall. I liked FC2 as-well.

    You can tweak a dll file to stop that. Seems a shame to miss out such a huge game, just by not tweaking it to how you want.

    throwing yourself off cliffs on the second island was excellent, that island was made for it.
    using the wingsuit of course.

    actually I like them, combat ones are very varied, like kicking folks off ledges and all the different moves and the exploration climbing jumping etc. was better than tomb raider and very fluid.

    Liked all the fc3 games and completed all of them, not many games can hold my interest until the end. Even top rated titles i get bored of, guess i been playing videos games for too long.

    Just get a mod to change it... in fact I recommend several mods to improve the game UI and make it do a little less hand holding. :)
