Outposts were fun the beginning when you had limited weapons and needed to sneak for most of your kills. Eventually you just get a silenced sniper and the special sniper and shoot from far away. If they don't physically see you they won't call for help.

Farcry 3 was GOTY material to me, and it is certainly one of my favourite games of last gen.

Having said that, I agree with what you said. When you captured radio towers, it made it too easy, with the unlocking of weapons and it also made money [completely] useless.

I actually made it through my first run using only stealth for the outposts (which made it more thrilling!). Had to use the special guns on the hunting bounties though, lol.

Beat the game twice and every time i tried sniping, even with the silence rifle and from like a mile away, they would always psychically know exactly where i was and come running. They wouldn't call for reinforcements until they actually saw me but as soon as one of them dropped dead from the sniper shot, all the others would start running directly towards me.

My problem w/ Far Cry 3, and maybe it was just me at the time, was the repetition. Free this tower and this outpost, then this area, a little story, rinse and repeat. Infamous Second Son suffered from that too.

I love that next gen looks great but I want variety and more believable situations, not repetition.

I played it my way and did towers and so forth when I wanted to, so I didn't get that repetitive feeling.

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor36d ago

Yeah, 4 was good, was hard choosing which Golden Dawn member to side with, when they were both pieces of sh!t.
I've beaten all the main entries except 2 and 6, ended up uninstalling 6 to download something else instead.

Profchaos36d ago

I'd love a far cry pack with the original PC game (not the half assed port on ps360) instincts, predator even a port of far cry 2 to modern consoles back when these games had their own identity and weren't far cry 3 cut and pastel

Demetrius36d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger8836d ago (Edited 36d ago )

Same here, I don't know why these games get so much hate. I've thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them, with only a couple of exceptions. I wish they'd hurry up and announce Far Cry 7. The only thing I'm concerned about is the rumoured time limit.

I would put 5 above 6 but agree with the other ratings. Though 6 has more refined gameplay compared to 5 it's lack of a compelling story really does hurt it imo but if you are a gameplay fiend and don't really care about story it makes sense.
