quality of life improvement.. Thumbs up

MadMax2600d ago

Definately the best far cry to date, period! Been playing since yesterday and am blown away at how good it is. The disc install though I believe said 60gb on the back of the box. The dog Boomer in it is really bad ass! The mission where you rescue him was very cool, you end up feeling really bad for the little guy. He becomes a very loyal companion to you after that, and I'm keeping him by my side! Pretty funny. Great job Ubisoft, I really did not like the look of this game at first, but ended up being one of my top favorite games this gen!

Xenophon_York2600d ago

Bold statement for one day of play, but I am glad it's that convincing.

How's the graphics compare to something like Battlefield 1 or Destiny 2?

MadMax2600d ago

Yea it definately is. I put around 7 hrs into it already and have access to most of the map and habe jammed thru quite a few main and aide missions, very fun game so far. Seems to just keep getting more and more interesting. Very impressed. I've played both those games and it looks just as good if not better than the pair. It has some great lighting and textures. Draw distance seems very good and nice colors. It's a beautiful looking world. I caught myself quite a few times just gazing out and looking around at all the scenery. It is supposedly based in Montana, which is full of some nice scenery. They have captured it nicely. Lots of wildlife, and the thing that put it over the top for me was the existence of the rare wolverine they put in this game. I don't think there's ever been a game with that particular animal in it. Skunks and bald eagles also in it. Good assortment of fish as well for when you go fishing in the game. I am playing on a ps4 pro with a Samsung ks8000 4k tv. Looks beautiful.

@MadMax

Thanks for the thorough recap. Draw distance is one of my main complaints with some games—especially driving games.

Fishing, ay? What about blackjack or poker?

Nice setup. I'll be playing on a Pro as well—for the television I'm on an LG OLED C7 55". Just coming off of a couple months playing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, so my 'palate' is somewhat spoiled.

Tankbusta402600d ago

As a gamer for about 30 years now I am always jealous when I read about other gamers getting games early because it's NEVER happened to me!!! Enjoy the game friend, I can't wait for Tuesday

MadMax2600d ago

I'm lucky enough to live by a private game shop out here in SoCal that releases all the games pretty early. If you are out here also, send me a pm and I will be happy to give you the name. Also a gamer myself of 30 plus years. Thx and i hope you enjoy the game yourself.

Stay-Toasty2600d ago

Right?!?! Me tooo. I think i got Horizon Zero Dawn like 3 hours early from the midnight release cause the store had to close for some reason lol. But i want something atleast a few days early. Thatd be awesome.

Tankbusta402600d ago

@Stay-Toasty

I know, I buy a lot of my games off of Amazon and almost every release you hear of someone getting the game delivered early...but its never happened to this guy!

Stay-Toasty2600d ago

I loved 3 and 4 but got a bit of FC fatigue. I know its very much the same but do you think FC5 will be different enough for me to have a good time with it?

Played and enjoyed Far Cry, Far Cry 3 and 4 campaigns .

-Foxtrot417d ago

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor417d 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.

Profchaos417d 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

Demetrius417d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger88417d ago (Edited 417d 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.

Far Cry 5 Has Surpassed 30 Million Players Worldwide

The 2018 first-person shooter has reached this milestone exactly 5 years after its initial release.

Profchaos767d ago

When you're free on every single service it's eventually going to happen.

Profchaos767d ago

Part of PS plus at the moment

ChasterMies767d ago

Far Cry 5 is “free” if you pay for PS+ Extra.

gangsta_red767d ago

Going to have to try and get back into Far Cry. The formula for Far Cry may be fun, but it gets repetitive very fast.

Demetrius767d ago

Been playing this series since far cry 3 I love the adventuring vibe this series gives off even far cry primal is so good, but experiencing far cry 5 in 60 fps crisp graphics on ps5 for the first time is dope it adds life to it, I wana give far cry 6 a second chance couldn’t get into it at first I wonder if it’s worth it

Far Cry 5 in native 60 FPS - available for PS5 & Xbox Series consoles now

Far Cry 5 Official Twitter: "You've been waiting long enough… Welcome to Hope County! Experience Far Cry 5 in native 60 FPS - available for PS5 & Xbox Series consoles … NOW! Far Cry 5 will also have a FREE WEEKEND from March 23-27 on all consoles & PC. Enjoy!"

banger88781d ago

Damn. I replayed it recently on SX with fps boost, and to achieve that they had to downgrade the resolution. Game played great but looked like ass. Wish I had've waited.

blackblades781d ago (Edited 781d ago )

So you saying fps boost lowers the resolution to achieve 60fps? Cause that culteastwitch was praising in a fanboy cok suking way.

Darkwatchman781d ago

It depends on the game. Some keep Xbox One X resolution. Others drop to base Xbox One resolution and settings.

Knushwood Butt781d ago

Nice
Waiting to play this on Extra but have had too much else to play.
So is this a native PS5 version or does the PS4 version run at 60fps on PS5?

Jin_Sakai781d ago

As expected, Far Cry 5 will now run at 60 frames-per-second on PS5,

“as part of a patch that optimises the PS4 game on Sony's new-gen console.”

Knushwood Butt781d ago

Downloading now. I might do a bit of pancake gaming this weekend.

Eidolon780d ago

Not native PS5. But still looked pretty good on PS4 Pro, and at a solid 60fps, definitely a good experience. Sadly games can't break out of PS4 Pro resolutions, for some reason.

LucasRuinedChildhood780d ago

PS4 games can run 2-2.5 times better on PS5. They're basically just changing the framerate cap to take advantage of that. They could actually change the resolution but it might affect the framerate - it's not a native PS5 game so it can't properly take advantage of the hardware. 1620p isn't bad, tbh.

Eidolon780d ago

Was really hoping to read that New Dawn would be upgraded as well. :( Already beat Far Cry 5 + and only like 1 hr into New Dawn.

KeeseToast780d ago (Edited 780d ago )

Pretty nice 👍
Now we’ll only need fps boost for:
Arkham Knight
Bloodborne
The Last Guardian
Assassin‘s Creed Unity
Shadow of the Colossus
Gravity Rush 2

Did I forget something?

Welshy780d ago

The worst part about AC Unity is that it *does* run natively at 60fps, but only when running the 1.0 version from the disc. If you allow the game to update, future patches applied a 30fps cap for some reason.

I don't see any reason it would be difficult to just lift the cap that they added.

CML2780d ago

Shadow of the Colossus already runs at 60fps.
Its possible to play The Last Guardian at 60fps with an unpatched disc version too.

Stanjara780d ago

So why not unlock framerate cap on the latest version? Can't be that hard.

CML2780d ago

Probably because the studio doesnt exist anymore. 🥲

LucasRuinedChildhood780d ago (Edited 780d ago )

Absolutely. RDR2 still sells very well so the lack of a next gen version after GTA5 next gen is really annoying.
