    The enemy AI in this game is pretty realistic It's like they have realistic human sixth sense You kill somebody with a suppressed sniper and they figure out you're out there somewhere they will shout "Sniper" and then they will hide in cover for a certain amount of time then coming out to search

    When you're in a firefight they get even more realistic when you get behind cover they won't notice and lose track of where you're at so you could just come up behind them and take'em down also every enemy in the area does not know where you're exact location is they're going to where the sound of the gunshots are.

    If you throw a rock too many times, the enemies would notice where it's being thrown from.

    The enemy AI in this game sets up so many different ways you can kill them.    … Expand

    Best game of the series. With its story and gameplay, it had a special place when it was released. But I can't say the same for the games that came after the third game. Sequels did nothing but copy and paste the third game and could not carry the series beyond 2012.

    Incorrect definition of insanity/10. For real though, there's a reason this game's formula has been copied by Ubisoft ever since. This was probably before the one Ubisoft higher up got all rapey and still kept his job to boot.

    esse é o ápice da franquia, a história tem uma narrativa e desenvolvimento excelente, o mapa é incrível e a frente do seu tempo, é um jogo vivo com variedade de coisas para se fazer, com certeza é um dos meus jogos favoritos

    Отличная игра, достойная первой части серии. Детализированная и приятная графика, качественный звук и эффекты, прогрессивная для своего времени физика стрельбы, взрывов и других механик. Игра оставила положительные эмоции. Правда к геймплею есть вопросы, так как он немного однообразен и надоедает кататься по большой карте, зачищая её.Отличная игра, достойная первой части серии.

    Far Cry 3's lush, open world, crafting system, and compelling story make it one of the most memorable FPS experiences in recent memory.

    A great game, quite an interesting plot with interesting characters. Based on that time and the present, this is a good project. Of course, there are a small number of visual but not critical bugs.

    Far cry 2 is better in it's own way, but this is definitely the best game as a whole.

    O jogo é realmente muito bem feito, e o primeiro contato que tive com a franquia, é uma pena que muitos personagens ao longo de um enredo promissor não tenham sido bem aproveitados e aprofundados adequadamente, é um grande jogo com suas falhas, mas ainda sim um jogo que recomendaria facilmente.

    Very nice graphics at that time. The trailer was impressive. Finally, I didn't finish that game fully (only about 60%)

    O jogo é ótimo, uma experiência que me agradou muito na época em que tive a oportunidade de finalizar, o melhor da saga sem sombra de dúvidas, apesar de ter envelhecido mal em questão gráfica, um remaster de qualidade seria bom, já que a versão "classic edition" não agradou muito boa parte dos jogadores. Nota: o melhor vilão dos games está nesse jogo

    Amazing characters, awesome to play again and again, a LOT of things to do on the open world, great enemies and guns, great difficulty, i just really missed achievements on PC. since i got all of them on the xbox. Best game of the franchise by far. The best open world FPS i can remember.

    Not perfect, but one of the best games ever made. Gameplay and story work together in an unmatched way, even if the story and pacing isn´t flawless. No wonder so many games are copying this, and not being as great as FC3. It´s great, but impossible to replicate.

    my favorite far cry game to date. Its just something about this vibe at the island. Story was great and Vaas was even better. One of my favorite villains of all time. Sidequests are interesting and just overall gameplay is good for its time. Kinda reminds me a little bit of LOST

    Definitivamente melhor jogo da franquia, roda em computadores mais fracos, bem otimizado, gráficos lindos mesmo no low, jogabilidade e mecânicas ótimas, mapa gigante, diversas variedades de missões e ótima história.
    Provavelmente um dos melhores jogos que eu já joguei.

    Far Cry 3 is a classic shooter at its core, but there are various RPG mechanics, skills and upgrades under the hood. It’s a fabulous playing ground and one can but marvel at the wondrous ways the various elements interact with each other. [January 2013]

    Tighter and more accessible than Far Cry 2, the third outing is a master class in open world shooting. [Feb 2013, p.59]
