    More garbage from UBisoft. I bought the deluxe edition for the dlc. (on Ubisoft connect) But the dlc does not show on map. Support is useless as always, followed their instructions but still does not work. Ubisoft Won't provide fix or refund. Will not ever buy Ubisoft games again.

    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

    Disappointing. The pros:
    Great story telling, solid driving and moving mechanics, the tattoo system is fun.
    The cons: where to start? The game is way too easy, the enemy spo

    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.

    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.

    I like this game more than others. I guess that's because it's the first Far Cry I played. Sit back on your broken finger such painful fantasies were very interesting.

    Um bom jogo, curto porem com bastante exploração no meio, trilha sonora ótima em momentos específicos e a gameplay é bem divertida. A história é interessante porem sinto que faltou mais tempo pra desenvolver os personagens (exceto o próprio Jason).

    7/10 - Bom

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

    Unplayable on modern systems.
    Ryzen 7, RTX 3060 = 45 FPS?
    I'm running Windows 11 with two screens (game running at 1440p monitor with the ultra preset)

    Also the game crashes every 5-10 minutes. Ubisoft please fix. I've heard it's a good game so it would be a shame to lose this game.

    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.

    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

    I played the game and finished it. The game is good, but I encountered technical errors in the game.
    Errors :
    -First of all, it is necessary to collect animal skins for development, but it feels as if the animals are teleporting in the places shown on the map. I realized much later on the first island that it was easy to find in side quests. - I said side quest, but side quests also    I played the game and finished it. The game is good, but I encountered technical errors in the game.
    Errors :
    -First of all, it is necessary to collect animal skins for development, but it feels as if the animals are teleporting in the places shown on the map. I realized much later on the first island that it was easy to find in side quests.
    -
    I said side quest, but side quests also have technical difficulties, for example, in an animal hunting mission on the top of the mountain, I found one of the escaped animals holding on to the rock facing down. It wasn't very pleasant.
    - On the second island, there was a problem in animations when trying to overlay the character's trapezoidal grip in one of the tower opening parts.
    When I tried to jump in, the character jumped over it instead of getting into the handle and threw himself down many times.
    Cons:
    -The upgrades are okay, except for weapon upgrades.
    -
    The weapon improvements part are as follows: While the attachment to the weapon is very limited, when too many add-ons were installed in the weapon specially provided by the game, I inevitably had a feeling of bitterness.
    -Boss fights weren't much fun for me.
    -The bad guys gave me the image of an ordinary crazy character.
    -
    The change of our much-mentioned main character, Jason, did not pass me by. For example, when collecting animal skins, it always felt as if he was disgusted doing it.
    -
    Even if I put a silencer on the gun, it felt like the AI ​​always knew I was there but pretended not to see it, and since there were armored men who didn't handle bullets, stealth didn't seem like an effective method to me.
    Pluses :
    The feeling of hitting does.
    It is very comfortable to drive.
    It's fun to burn enemies.
    Weapons are fun to use.
    Visual quality is good.

    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]
