Far Cry® 5

I didn't expect much and was positively surprised. It's fun if you don't think about it too much. But it's all ruined by stuff despawning as soon as you look away. A vehicle, an npc, a body or even an encounter... You look away and it's gone. I smashed through a roadblock with my car and when I turned back to finish the job all that was left was some debris?? No vehicle, no enemies, nothing. Very frustrating and immersion breaking

I'll start off saying that there are some major similarities to Assassin's Creed as far as gameplay is concerned. However, I will say that I've played the hell out of this game for about 3 years now; I can't help but come back to it time and time again. I've touched an Assassin's Creed game maybe once or twice in that span. You're pitted against a cult which has taken over an entire region in the USA. There is a small resistance group in the area, but they need you, The Main Character, to help them take out the cult and its seemingly infinite wealth of money, weapons, and bodies. My go-to weapon is the sniper rifle - there is nothing quite like hitting a precision headshot on a Peggie from hundreds of feet away. I also highly recommend making the Rocket Launcher your new side chick. If you blow up a silo or a helicopter or even one very unfortunate cult member, you'll feel amazing. This is an intentional aspect of the game, I'm sure, but there's way too much direct eye contact from NPCs that get right up in your grill. If that ain't your thing, be prepared for a lot of it. I will say there are a ton of characters in this game, none of whom I care about very much, save for my dog, bear, and cougar pals. Protect them at all costs. If you want a game that is an utter timesink--I've literally spent more than a work week's worth of time on this game at this point--this is your game. I highly recommend it overall.

The ending was underwhelming. A lot of the gameplay during main quests was forced and does not go with the character arc.

I love the game but can't stand the forced cinematic's every time you play. they drag on and on and even after you complete the game and start new game plus it still makes you sit through all of them again.

You will know when you have found something great a feeling comes over you and you are compelled to share it with the steam community. This game is that kind of feeling it has a lot about it that pretty much makes it the pinnacle in the open world genre, I say without hesitation buy this game. The graphics are beautiful the mechanics are too and map is just vast (a lot to explore). The feeling you get when you climb up ladders or swim in the lake is wonderful. A piece of modern art is what games in this caliber are. Sure it is a ubisoft game and comes with the launcher but that is such a small deal, in this games case I'm sure you will overlook. Oh last thing you will see some pretty weird things on your journey (the cows made me smile) when you come across a dog befriend it as it is a great friend to have.

This game definitely will stay the best in series. There are no need to activate towers like it was in FC3 and FC4. Skill tree and perks available while missing in FC6. Besides the best antagonist which has been chosen by God to save souls. Still looks great in graphics and still satisfying to ride ATV across Hope County. And Ubisoft added achievements so it worth to play it again.

No modern and effective Anti-Aliasing, only SMAA and god-awful TAA. A 60 FPS lock in any menu and a sort of an unrefined, odd gunplay that sometimes feels perfect and odd in the other. Same with weapons, difficult to explain, but very odd. As if it was made vaguely based off of photos of weapons. Not perfectly arcady in a cod style, nor realistic in any way. Otherwise it's a good game in a few ways.

[h1]A Step Up, but Not Without Flaws[/h1] Far Cry 5 is a vast improvement over its predecessors, with better gunplay and a less repetitive structure. For context into value (I would say consider only on sale) - I poured just under 40 hours into the game, and completed the full storyline, all side quests, and most of the other challenges before I got bored. That said, like the older titles in the series, it eventually started feeling repetitive. I pushed through to the end, but certainly had zero motivation to continue with New Game+. There is arcade mode, and several DLCs, which in theory could address that argument, but I was ready to move on to other titles. Some other key standout negatives: The companions were a mixed bag - while I tried all of them, many suffered from frustrating AI behavior, often being more of a hindrance than a help. On top of that, I found car driving physics to be sluggish, and the wingsuit controls were downright horrendous - frustrating to get going on some of the Clutch Nixon challenges. Despite its flaws, Far Cry 5 was still an enjoyable ride, just not one I’d go back to for a second round.

Far Cry 5's co-op mode is an absolute dogshit. I mean, when you're playing with a mate, it's only you(HOST) those achievements marked "Solo Campaign Only" on Steam. Meanwhile, your friend is left with barely scraping together a fraction of the achievements you both earn together—just about 20% + of them, all tagged as "Campaign Only." And if that wasn't enough, only the host's game progress sticks. Your friend mission progress, weapons, and upgrade skills just vanish when he's back to his game again or connect to your world. It's this FREAKY system that really ruins the co-op experience. Classic Ubisoft :)

It was okay. Runs decent on steam deck. Only flying is a bit laggy.

Far Cry 5 – это идеальный шутер для тех, кто любит исследовать, взрывать и просто весело проводить время! Определенно стоит своего внимания!

This is my second time trying Far Cry games (my first far cry game was far cry 3), quite disappointed they remove looting and skinning animation, but so far this game is really really fun I love it so much

It's an outstandingly good game until the last fifteen minutes where it becomes one of the worst.

I like it, it's chaotic and the shooting feels pretty good. You can play however you want and I love that versatility. Only downside is the gun variety being somewhat limited supposedly because you are only using American but that's debatable. Go for it is goes on sale cheap.

This is my first and most action packed game I have played. The difficulty levels feature and the overall multiplayer feature make it very awesome. Highly recommended game.

The 'Remember Me' button on Ubisoft Connect doesn't work. I have to log in every time I want to play a game. It's really annoying.

main story was good side missions repetative the environment was gorgeous and the music was hella good so i give this game 8.5/10

After playing 19 hours, i can't play it anymore. The game wont start, already tried verify or start the game from ubisoft still wont work and start with administrator. Not gonna try reinstall tho to much waste of time.

The second best Far Cry game in the franchise, in my honest opinion. The story, (For something from Ubisoft) is rather appealing, touching and genuine. You fall in sync with it after a while, and with each step you take to the endgame, the more excitement you build up. Gameplay wise, the game is still at it's core, proper Far Cry. Gunplay feels amazing, although eventually you may get tired of using the weapons, as the arsenal may seem wide, but in reality, considering just how much shooting you will do, it isn't all that sizeable. I'd call this the last, good, and last ever, proper Far Cry. Worth every single penny.

After playing the entire game I wish I had spent more time fishing. Like yeah the cult is evil and are monsters, but man the amount of fun places to fish.

This game has an explosive and sinister set up from the first scene and the story progresses well at the major points. In the mean time the gameplay is mostly linear and begins to get repetitive, however the gameplay can be somewhat broken up with fishing, hunting and stunt challenges. The villians are absolute psychopaths as is typical of the FC series and the devs have gone a great job illiciting their mental trauma through the acting and animation. The other NPCs range from basic drones to fleshed out interactive personalities with usually comical back stories. They also interact with each other using unique dialogue depending on who they're speaking with. The companion characters help to stave off the crushing isolation of solo gameplay and theyre actually very useful, each one having unique skills to compliment your preferred style. Great game, smooth satisfying gunplay, unforseen ending. Glad I bought it.

I honestly avoided this game for a long, long time. When it first came out, there was a looooot of criticism. People didn't like the setting, the silent protagonist, the MTX (which is entirely avoidable), and the chaotic nature of the game. Sure, I get it, you can't go 15 feet without running into another fight (or three all at once), but in today's climate, this is 100% worth it when it's about $5 on sale. Farcry 3 will always be my favorite due to nostalgia, but this honestly is a better game in terms of polish and content. If you want to add a game to your backlog, you can't go wrong here.

Far Cry 5 is by far and wide one of my top five favorite games. It's pretty short for this genre of game, but all the characters are really interesting and the story is compelling. While New Dawn was completely unnecessary, the DLC for 6 - Collapse - added a new layer to the story that I absolutely adored. There are many heavy themes in this game like child abuse, manipulation, drug abuse/addiction, war, and domestic abuse. Despite all of that, it's still an amazing game that I've played at LEAST 20 times

Quite a refreshing title in the series and one that I really enjoyed. A story which had foundation, an ending which you had a crucial choice to make. Joseph Seed's VA/Actor, Greg Bryk (Saw V) did an outstanding performance in playing the main antagonist, a really twisted individual that manipulated people into following his sick traditions along with his family. The gameplay was as you know it, very farcry. Beautiful graphics and a really vast open world. Only problem i had is the annoying fetch quests that came along with it but its a classic Ubisoft formula so I don't see them changing anytime soon. Overall the experience was a very good one!

graphics 10/10 sounds quality 8/10 story 9/10 free roam 10/10 vehicle creativity 7/10 enviroment 8/10 overall game 9.3/10 I will surely recommend this game to anyone looking for a best time killer game.

All in all, Far Cry 5 is a great time. Its like the wild, unpredictable cousin you got who shows up to the family BBQ, brings a tank and starts launching fireworks at the neighbors house. The story is a little heavy handed and the AI might not be winning any awards for brilliance, but its pure unadulterated fun. If your looking for a game where you can take down a cult with an assault rifle in one hand and a bear in the other, Far Cry 5 is your ticket to a wild and chaotic ride. Its a little absurd, a lot of fun and totally worth it if youre into a slightly unhinged open world experience.

Far cry 5 is such a good open world game. Walking, Running, Driving, Flying in Hope County never make me bored with the UBISLOP map objective, Peggies disturbing the peace left and right, seeing many innocent people died because refusing to follow so called "Father" is a DICK move and perfect for far cry theme. Co-op Experience in my opinion one of the best for open world game. you can beat the campaign, fishing, hunting, killing peggies, and dying together with your buddy. - THE DLC - SUCK ASS

This is one of the worst entries in the Far Cry series. I love this series, but this installment is really bad. Imagine doing the same thing for 18 hours—damn, man! And imagine the NPCs talking while the protagonist remains silent, haha. In short, I do not recommend this game. • Story: 2/10 • World design: 7/10 • Graphics: 8/10 • Songs: 4/10 • Gameplay: 8/10 (I played it on 2K Ultra settings).

The best Far Cry game ever made. Had it come out in 2019 instead of 2018 it could have won game of the year. As it stands, it is a masterpiece with one small caveat; the hair geometry and texture is subpar at best. On the other hand, the acting is phenomenal. Too bad the protagonist is so notably and inexplicably silent. Ubisoft, if you're listening, use this game as your template and add a couple of new game-play elements here and there. Don't reinvent the wheel, make any drastic changes, or deviate from what has otherwise worked. Do this kind of game more often (and consistently), and your company might not go tits up in the next year.

very cool game. however, plane controls are absolutely garbage. it auto-orients the plane so its hard to do much of anything in the air besides basic flying. I feel like both planes and cars should go faster, but that might be just me. it's a cool game and it's very pretty.

Worst part of this game? The redneck christianity music, worst kind of country music. Cant believe music like this exist und people actually listen to this crap irl. And Hurk, f*ck this dude. Stop bringing him back in every f*cking FarCry, But otherwise; pretty solid FarCry game. Not my favorite (3 is still the best), but damn close. Best FarCry story. Good/interesting chars. The map is boring tbh, no diversity. We have the 3 regions, but they all look the same. I wish Ubisoft would bring something new to the table. Outstanding new. Companions are nice to have (they had this feature already in Wildlands). Didnt care for the fishing part, did it only one time for the bear companion. But thats it, nothing really new.

I think you get kidnapped a total of 12 times. The story and writing are bad, but there are times the game suggests it isn't to be taken seriously anyway. Lots of low brow humor, then a sudden big twist ending that feels pretty heavy. It would have been a better ending, worthy of some emotional reaction, if it weren't for the amount of genital humor that preceded it. There is literally a sidequest dedicated to picking up cow testicles for a...testicle festival? I think? The gunplay feels good (not great but good). There's a moderate amount of weapons and attachments to unlock. I was fine with this. I often hate when games need to have each type of rifle or SMG. There's a couple of meme guns (shovel launcher comes to mind) but they all feel like they have their use in the game at some point or another. Supposedly this game has a secondary ammo type and I am a little embarrassed to admit that I had no idea how to switch ammo types and completely forgot about that until writing this just now. The companion AI's are awful but they can pick you up from a "downed state" if you die (otherwise just gg reload last save). When I say the AI is awful, I mean they are absolute dogsh**. They will run into fire, they will run in front of your gunfire, they will do just about anything they can to be in the absolute worst spot in most gun fights. Also, forget approaching something in stealth when they are around. You have no idea if they are going to stay hidden or run up the front steps Overall it kept my attention and I finished the main story to a game outside of Baldur's Gate 3 for the first time in years so kudos! Was worth the sale price I paid for it and would recommend it during a seasonal sale to anyone looking to blow a couple of bucks on a good time.

So much pain in the ass to even open this game, it doesn’t recognize xbox one controller and it forces you to download external launcher - “oh that’s fine, Uplay was pretty good”, yeah right it was pretty good, it’s gone now, they have “Ubisoft connect” which you cannot even reset your password with it, i waited for an email but it never came, I had to create a whole new account to even open this game. Don’t recommend, maybe this opinion will change in the future bur for now i’m just sad… Tried playing it on Lenovo Legion Go and pc

While I really Dislike the fact that there are micro transactions in a mostly single player game (Optional but still Pretty defeating to see) and that the game has some funky glitches, I am having fun though.

Below average. Recommended only for $5 or less. There are better games to play. Positives + graphics + gun sounds + you can pet a dog Negatives - repetitive - boring - no variety in enemies - cars - story (except for the ending)

Whole story of the game: You go to arrest a Silly man with a man bun and glasses. Wait whats that? his silly little cult men don't want you to take him? Well that's too bad. Oh no the cult takes him back. Oh and now his has 3 siblings just like him!? So you now you have to save America from this cult? Through the game you get harassed by these millennials trying you to get you to believe in their cult. After taking out his siblings Joseph crashes out and nukes the whole of America lmao. #AmericaRocks #JosephIsABully #GameAlmostMadeMeAmerican 10/10 Game

everything was quite cool! played around 50 hrs to do everything. in the end some tasks are a bit more boring but overall i liked this shooter!

Definitely buy it on sale, do not pay more then $5-$12 for such repetitive garbage. Gameplay is a 6.5/10, soundtracks 9.5/10, main antagonist a 9.5/10, graphics quality 7/10. It's hard for me to recommend this game, Ubisoft had a great idea when creating this in 2018 but butchered it with mediocre to bad gameplay. Many of the characters are forgettable, and there aren't many moments that would make you fall in love with the game. The soundtracks alone make the majority of the games enjoy ability And still has Denuvo on it for how old it is. And Ubisoft Launchers which adds extra overhead to peoples computers.

I bought this game for $6, and I still feel ripped off. The characters are boring and repetitive, and the missions all feel the same—talk to a forgettable NPC, bad guys show up, kill the bad guys, and yay, everyone is happy again. There’s no good reward for completing missions, making playing them feel pointless. You’d expect the combat and gunplay to be good, considering they make up the entirety of the gameplay, but its mediocre at best. Guns feel unresponsive, powerless, and random, requiring very little skill to use effectively. The number of game-breaking bugs I encountered was unacceptable. I was repeatedly soft-locked, forcing me to replay the same dull missions over and over again. It’s not just me, either—I found plenty of other players who ran into the same bugs in the same missions. while i cant say much about the story as i have not completed the game nor do i have the desire i can say the the setting and story is very uninspiring. The concept of a evil cult taking over has been done to death And to top it all off, they had the audacity to include microtransactions in a SINGLE PLAYER CAMPAIGN in addition the game typically costs $60. That’s insane. it cost as much as rdr2, play that instead.

Personally, I enjoyed the setting and game play elements more in this game than in FC3. Feels a bit more grounded in reality, too! Only annoyance is the mandatory escape missions and, still, trying to loot bodies quickly without accidentally swapping weapons...

When I first started playing I experienced motion sickness and I tried to return the game, but I had played too long already. I'm so happy that I figured out the motion sickness issue. This game is fun and somewhat challenging.

Gran juego! es algo repetitivo pero la jugabilidad es muy entretenida y tiene unos buenos graficos! la historia me gusta es algo atrapante con el tema de las religiones y me gusta

i played through the game a few years ago on xbox and really enjoyed it. i replayed it on PC but unfortunately the john seed showdown mission will not show up. ive tried everything and nothing is working. i cant complete the game and that is bullshit. this MAJOR bug should not be in this game, especially since it has been out for years. ridiculous.

It's a fun game when it works. Unfortunately the search function for the arcade is completely borked and I receive the same error code every time I try to find a map or creator. I have spent a couple days on and off trying to troubleshoot but Ubi support is nonexistent and the error fails to resolve itself. TLDR: The combat loop is fun but the game is pretty buggy for a AAA title.

Fun, took a little time to get used to after Far Cry 4 which is a more streamlined game. The ending sucks though. Edit. Don't buy it for the full price

Decent game, but not more than decent. Reminds me of JC3. I had fun, but i find the game somewhat unrealistic and at times confusing. It was difficult to immerse myself in the game. Feels like the developers didn't go all in. I'd say you don't play this game because of its story, but because of its gameplay. Would recommend if you can get it for less than €20.

The Seed's were the heroes so thank god the ending is just being bred by John for 20 years. It'd be perfect if not for the ubislop launcher messing with performance and discord.

Various skills required to master this game. I hope you can fly! At least when you crash in this game you get to walk away and start again another day. It's time to take on the cult IF you're up to it.

nice game, similar to FC Primal, just the tribes a little more evolved.

This is my first FPS game and man what a story and missions. I loved all the three boss mission except the ending or epilogue battle. Other than the final mission this game is a hell of a ride for fps game lovers.
