    Subjectively for me the third and fourth parts are in one place according to the interest, atmosphere and study of the World, but objectively I agree that the third part is the best in the series, since it's story is the strongest and interesting from all the parts. But since I liked this story too, I will give the third part a highest rating, and to this part almost highest.

    I personally like this game more than the 3 one. Maybe its story isn't as interesting as the previous entry in the series but it's still a very strong compact narrative. The gameplay on the other hand is where this game really shines from its predecessor. It takes everything from 3 and improves upon it. I also have a soft spot for anything close to the Himalayas.

Game takes place in outstanding, remarkable Kyriat. Graphics looks way better than Far Cry 3, technological develop is noticeable on every step. Also audio binding was worth admiring. Pagan Min is in no way worse than memorable Vaas from the previous game. Story is good enough, important choices meanwhile are quite simple and limited, but it does not bother. There is huge number of side activities, which are more interesting and varied than in 2012, but few of them are ridiculous. Sometimes the content is too repeteable, which artificially makes game bigger.
    Nevertheless discovering great, open world in Far Cry 4 with the improved gameplay was really fun. Excellent shooter - not everywhere you are able to shoot to a hippo, drive over one opponent and sneak to kill another one.    … Expand

    Despite the fact that Far Cry 4 is just Far Cry 3, with a new story and a new location, the atmosphere of this game is one of the most memorable of all the games I've played, making me perceive the reused elements from Far Cry 3 not necessarily as a lack of imagination, but as a preservation of quality.

    - Gameplay -
    If you loved Far Cry 3's gameplay, you can experience it all again and more in Far Cry 4. Open world, hunting, crafting, gliding, stealthing, shooting, outpost liberating, tower climbing, it's all there. Carry out a mission however you like. You want to kill them all with a rocket launcher, go ahead. Want to stealth through it with a bow and arrows, be my guest. I personally loved the hunting and crafting system in Far Cry 4. The upgrades you could get felt very useful in many stealth and combat situations. Hence, it gave me a lot of incentive to go out of my way and hunt that rare animal. It felt satisfying.

    Out of all the stealth games I've played, the Far Cry series definitely has my favourite enemy detection meter. It doesn't fill up too fast or too slow, it gives you just enough time to jump into cover if they catch a glimpse of you. This allows you to continue stealth combat, instead of being forced into an all out brawl. But at the same time, the game doesn't let you just run loose and not get detected. If you're too braise, you'll be rightfully spotted out. The system feels fair.

    You can choose from a range of vehicles just like Far Cry 3. Though not too many new ones, but you can ride an elephant and ram into people. And probably one of the most amusing things is back. Watching enemies or allies getting attacked by random animals. Eagles are my favorite.

    - Narrative -
    The story and characters has to be what brought my rating from an 7 to a 9. AJ Ghale is a protagonist you want to fight for. He's bringing his mother's ashes back to her homeland, but there's much to discover about his origins through this journey. You uncover bits and pieces of AJ's family's past, and the influence his parents had there. It's all still a big mystery, until the very end. The game has you thinking one thing, but the ending completely turns it upside down. It's also how they presented it. In an instant, WITHOUT words, all your questions are answered. I've seen my fair share of plot twists in movies and games, but this has to be one of the best. Once I opened that door, it all made sense. I literally just sat there in my chair, not moving my character, for a good 5 minutes reflecting on every major dialogue throughout the game, and how it all made sense, the moment I opened this door. It was a surreal feeling. There's also an alternate ending which allows you to complete the game in less than 15 mins. It's amusing to say the least.

    - Visual & Sound -
    Another very strong aspect about Far Cry. The visuals. The lush atmosphere. The detailed environment. Instead of tropical islands this time, you're out in the mountains and peaks. Animals and people are very interactive. Though I feel the devs reused too many of the same models for the allies and enemies, they literally all look the same. Like I swear I just killed this enemy, now he's strolling around as a civillian in a village, what?

    - Replay value -
    There are plenty of side missions, forts, and treasures to loot after your first play through, assuming you didn't get everything along the way.

    Thanks for reading.    … Expand

    One of my favorite games of all time.

    It is a fun game. The gameplay and the story are awesome. The story for me is 10/10. The main story follows Ajay Ghale, a young Kyrati-American, as he is caught in a civil war involving Kyrat's Royal Army, controlled by tyrannical king Pagan Min, and a rebel movement called the Golden Path. And there are many plot twists and different finals, but    One of my favorite games of all time.

And there are many plot twists and different finals, but I think the best part was to choose between Annita and Sabal. The final is really interesting either way and it is one of the few games I really liked the story.

    The gameplay is also incredible, the player has so many takedowns options and they all are fun and simple to execute as every game should be. It is sensational trying to invade an enemy base just to try to kill everyone with takedowns, it is the best part of the game. Also, I really love the healings animation.

    Also, I've played Far Cry 3 and I like way more the 4. I think pretty much all things were improved, even the story I think the 4 is better.    … Expand

Крафт сумок лично мне показался маленьким ибо я в первой четверти выкачивал все сумки на 3 уровень и просто бегал по аванпостам в поисках заданий “Недели моды Кирата” или как-то так.

    Pagan Min nimmt während der Story die ganze Zeit Kontakt zu einem auf und ist dabei immer sehr höflich aber natürlich gestört. In dem DLC Escape from Prison oder wie das auch immer heißt gibt er dir auch Anweisungen wie du gegen seine eigenen Leute überlebst, schon ziemlich cool. Neben den 32 Story-Missionen kann man auch 24 Außenposten einnehmen, welche einem weitere Nebenaktivitäten freischalten, das sind so Aufgaben wie Attentate, jemanden heimlich killen oder mit einer bestimmten Waffe, etwas mit einer bestimmten Waffe jagen, woraus man sich dann Stufe 4/4 von seinem Waffengurt etc. freischalten kann, Bomben entschärfen, wenn man bemerkt wird, schalten sie sie scharf und man hat nur noch 15 Sekunden pro Bombe (ist eig immer schaffbar), Propagandazentren zerstören oder Geiseln befreien, da geht es um Taktik, erstmal alle aufdecken, dann die auf erhöhten Positionen ausschalten und dann auf den Rest draufstürmen oder von hinten einen Takedown durchführen. Ich hab diese Missionen so gut wie alle mit der Predator gemacht (schallgedämpfte Sniper). Dazu gibt es auch 17 Glockentürme, die ich auf der erste Map-Hälfte alle bestiegen bin, aber ich der zweiten alle mit einem Gyrokopter abgeflogen bin und immer ganz oben geparkt habe, ja das einparken ist etwas tricky und er ist mir zum Glück erst beim 17. Glockenturm runtergefallen, weil die Rotoren diesmal nicht aufhören wollte, bis der Holzbalken endlich platz macht. Dazu noch 4 Festungen, welche geschwächt werden, wenn ihr jeweils 25% der Story abgeschlossen habt, es gibt quasi 4 hohe Tiere in diesem Spiel, welchen die Festungen gehören, die machten mir besonders viel Spaß einzunehmen.

    Es gibt auch noch bunte Buchstaben auf der Map, das orange L ist ein durchgeknallter "Priester" mir fällt das richtige Wort gerade nicht ein, aber er möchte seine Sünden wieder reinwaschen und lässt einen Blutdiamanten und Waffen sammeln, in dem man sich irgendwo reinkämpft, einen Haufen Gegner killt und sich wieder rauskämpft und dabei einen Haufen Gegner killt. Dann gibt es Yogi & Reaggie, zwei Kiffer die bei dir im Garten wohnen und dich immer mal wieder ziehn lassen, worauf du nackt und auf Drogen über die Map läufst, um diene Ausrüstung wieder zu erlangen, macht es verdammt viel Spaß. Das erste Mal, wenn man sie antrifft zählt nicht zu derer Reihe, das gehört zu Shangri La. Da gelangt man nach Shangri La und 5 Tanka Stücke zu beschaffen und kämpft gegen Dämonen, um Sangri La zu verteidigen, auch interessant aber nach dem Fluggedöns hatte ich darauf keinen Bock mehr (benutzt dafür unbedingt einen Controller! Fahren kann man auch mit Maus & Tastatur sehr gut aber mit den Controller ist auch das nochmal besser, wo wir gerade beim Controller sind, ihr braucht ihn, um mit LT ein Seil runterrutschen zu können, für die Tastatur gibt es KEINE Belegung dafür, ihr könnt nur das Seil lösen und dann seid ihr tod!) Es gibt auch noch das blaue H, das sind Hurk-Aufgaben und ist wohl DLC, kann man ganz normal wie L, Y und Shangri La während bzw. zwischen der Kampange gespielt werden, Hurk macht mit Yogi & Reaggie am meisten Spaß, der steckt immer in Schwierigkeiten und verpackt es so, als sei er erst fast in Schwierigkeiten bzw, könnte in welche hinein geraten und dann rettet ihr ihn oder er bittet euch was zu beschaffen, dann findet ihr es und ups, auf einmal sind da sehr viele Gegner, die das auch haben wollten, macht wirklich Spaß! Von diesen Charakter-Missionen gibt es übrigens immer 4, manchmal 5, wobei das erste Mal dann nur einen Kennenlernen mit ihnen ist.

    Natürlich gibt es auch wieder Sammelbares, Propagandaposter (150) die man, wenn man drankommt mit E abreißen oder wenn man nicht dran kommt mit einen Molotow abbrennen kann, Mani-Mühlen (30) die man drehen kann, dafür gibts auch Kharma, man kann da Level 8 erreichen, um eine bestimmte einzigartige Waffe zu bekommen (das sind die besten Waffen, die haben bestimmte Aufsätze wie einen Schalldämpfer etc.), Bücher (20) einsammeln oder Mörder Masken (80) einsammeln oder zerstören.

    Über das DLC Escape from Prison oder wie auch immer das heißt müssen wir nicht wirklich drüber reden, man startet auf einem Turm und hat 30 Minuten Zeit die Exfiltrationszone zu erreichen, wo man den Helikopter mit dem man dann entkommt 10 Minuten lang beschützen muss, mit Waffen, die man auf dem Weg zur Exfiltrationszone gesammelt hat, man kann diese erlangen, in dem man Außenposten einnimmt oder eine Aktivität macht, wie eine Attentats-Mission, dann wird einem auch etwas Zeit wieder gut geschrieben, man kann auch Poster von der Wand abreißen, welches einem z.b. eine Minute gibt.    … Expand

    As for the game itself: it's the same style of gameplay as Far Cry 3, only with more polished game systems and a more fully realised world... pretty much EXACTLY what I'd hoped it would be.

    Farcry 4 is sort of a pre-cursor to Farcry 5, with a better environment and to some extent , better guns – yes I really liked some of the odd guns on here. The world is bigger, actually more interesting and certainly has a lot more pick ups and collectables, which does help to branch out the actual experience -(though the collectables are worthless on their own).

The world is bigger, actually more interesting and certainly has a lot more pick ups and collectables, which does help to branch out the actual experience -(though the collectables are worthless on their own). The story does work ok, but I would say this benefits with more immersion than Farcry 5 – the game feels 'deeper'. (yes 'deeper' for a Farcry game, Ha!, I mean it :) )

    Farcry 5 is better with regard to structuring in the story and generally feeling more fluid in general and is certainly not a lesser game mind you... Oh not to mention given the Dunia engine is improved over this , which I have mentioned about at the bottom of this review... Dunia here is VERY rough around the edges.

    Stealth works and the outpost system has been improved from the previous game(you can fight larger ones called fortresses and replay them (something I resented not being able to do in Farcry 3)).

    Story wise ; the Environment of 'Kyat' is very interesting to see, both in the way the oppressive world occurs, as well as the religious bits that are added to it. I found the Oriental thing that goes with this was great. To some extent I would say some creativity has been applied here. Its a shame that the overall 'take out' is not substantial (of what the game wants to say, rather than what actually happened.). The story does however take some time to 'get' and the initial impressions are quite confounding. ( although your ' rude plus one' has just been tortured and you have just narrowly escaped having picked up guns and just started off, as you do, stealth killing and shooting people)

    It's also refreshing to see that what you would have imagined when first playing the game is dis-spelled closer to the end, In-all: most characters are perceived as quite human. And although certain characters hint at having their darker sides, it is only as you choose a faction at the end that you see their real nature.

    In saying that combat in Farcry is FARCRY. You like shooting people in the face and tracking around and not getting caught ? Farcry is for you, not to mention stealing cars and running people over and then being chased and shot at... This game can get just as chaotic as any other and its what make Farcry GREAT!

    Additionally to this, I did like hunting – it did have a certain competence and patience to it, yet was not too hard – it was rewarding and made me feel like a Bowss. Not sure about fishing though – but its good to have it there

    What's more, stealth is very solid. If you liked Creeping around and not getting caught on Dishonoured or Metal Gear, then this is the game for you! Creeping around, knife killing and take down-killing, without being noticed is very comprehensive on this game, made better by the fact that you can replay those outpost attacks (and there are larger ones called fortresses too).

    Oh did I mention the Wingsuit???!! I know they robbed it from Just cause, but man is it satisfying to just fly down to a mission or climb up a mountain and then fly all the way down to town – the wing suit is great!( if not for the bugs :P)

    The perk tree system is completely missable and the need to loot later in the game expires, this is a shame, though without both, Farcry would become much simpler – so for what they are, they help the game become better.

    Multiplayer is worth playing to explore and just play the game with freinds, but you WONT be able to play any missions at all,only the lesser 'doing quests' and exploring . All progress, like on Farcry 5 is locked to the host only, and the guest only receives the experience that they gain.

    NOTE: Yes so if you want to play Farcry with a friend, Farcry 5 is a better choice.

    The worst aspect of Farcry 4 is the engine – there is not a lot to hate about Farcry 4, - but this is the most frustrating. Here are a few examples - but take this away with you, Farcry 4 feels like its testing the 'Dunia' engine, so Farcry 5 seems to not experience the same issues, so lets just say these problems have been acknowledged, at least in the next iteration of the game.
    -Jumping often starts wing suit
    -interactions with objects often take 5 seconds to begin
    -Interactions with said objects that are close to each other get confused
    -Stealth system is petty and hive minded    … Expand

    2014 continues to be the year of terribly optimised AAA PC games, especially from Ubisoft, and sadly Far Cry 4 is no different.

    I cannot honestly fault the game itself in terms of gameplay, story arch and what it's trying to do (except to point out the valid criticism that this should be called Far Cry 3.5, as there's little to no innovation over the previous title on show here.

But that's not necessarily a bad thing, as Far Cry 3 was excellent and if ain't broke, why fix it?)

    But you can get all that good stuff in the title, but if it has severe frame rate dips no matter what you do and has a default mouse and keyboard set up that is nigh on unplayable, alongside an FOV issue that actively encourages motion sickness, then you're gimping your game right off the bat.

    I really don't know what it is about Ubisoft and releasing games for PC that appear unfinished and untested, but it appears to be a trend that needs to be stopped. Ubisoft in particular have all the skill and ingredients necessary to make flawless, blockbuster titles with the raw materials the AC and Far Cry (and to a lesser extent, the potential in Watch_Dogs) franchises have, but they're shooting themselves in the foot time and time again.

    But enough of the negative, as they are technical faults that should have an easy fix - this is a very enjoyable title that is worth your money and time, which is more than can be said for Unity. If you have a back catalogue of games to play through, you can probably wait till this goes on sale as it's not a "must play immediately" kind of game in terms of multiplayer etc. but definitely add it to your FPS/Action purchase list.    … Expand

    Co-op is less fun than expected. You aren't allowed to take on Campaign missions with a friend, which is a bit of a disappointment. The co-op mode is very limited. To few side quests and outputs.

    Overall, i'd rate this game 8-8.5. Story is a bit meh, but the side activities, open world and the game mechanics make up for it. It's just plain fun to play.

    yes, everything is EXACTLY THE SAME, apart from the graphics (which they really amped up this time around).

    you might stop reading here...

    ~

    do not misunderstand me, I find FC4 to be a truely well made game.
    it is fun to play, the story is superbly written and the characters, especially antagonist "King Min", are very well developed characters you will love to hate... though, I have to say that "Min" is no "Vas".
    I am not too far into the main-story, so I can only suspect that the main quest will turn out to be nice this time around again - BUT, make no mistake, FC4 has literally NO INNOVATION, NOT THE LEAST BIT OF "NEW", NO NEW MECHANICS OR WAYS OF PLAYING YOUR GAME...

    FC4 IS JUST "MORE OF THE SAME" - or as vendors in Thailand used to announce their cheap counterfeit things: "same same ... (but different)!" - I will gladly admit that I kinda MISS something, a tiny little bit of "new", something fresh and innovative.
    instead, Ubisoft wanted to play it absolutely safe -. and they could, for FC3 is an almost perfect open-world FPS.

    the whole concept did NOT have to be completely re-invented (as IS the case with the "Assassin's Creed" series), however, I am sure that most gamers (like myself) would have appreciated "something" fresh... not talking about some game-changing mechanics, but anything that we hadn't seen in FC before.

    but, we've basically got this "Far Cry 3" CLONE ... which isn't exactly a bad thing.

    FC3 I have rated 10/10
    FC4 I rate 8/10 - because it could have been "more" and Ubisoft simply didn't have the "cojones" to change the tiniest bit...

    from a technical viewpoint I have to remark, even with older GPU like mine (Radeon 5870) you can get this game to run with STABLE 30 FPS!
    (what I want to tell you is, the game runs on older hardware - IF you know how to "tweak" your settings - though, it absolutely should be enjoyed on a nicer graphics-card than my old piece) ;)
    but, given that the only "innovation" or even difference in FC4 is the extremely nice graphics, you most definitely should play this game on a good GPU, to at least enjoy the only thing "new" and "better" compared to FC3.

    comming to think of it... Ubisoft seems to HATE any "changes" to their franchises!
    that is the simple reason for why "Assassin's Creed Unity" is the "Same **** Different Game" crap it had been from the beginning.
    (oh how I wish for the consumers to "vote with their wallets" and finally stopping to buy the BORING BULL**** this AC franchise had become!)    … Expand

    However the game is maybe a little too much like Far Cry 3. Mechanics, exploration and especially the feeling has not changed much. The snowy tibet landscape feels a lot more crowded than i d like it to. I was expecting ... well, an environment that is admittedly not so suited for a game ... that is vast areas of not much more than landscape with sparse hotspots. Instead the whole world feels not much different from the Island of Far Cry 3 in terms of infrastructure.
    The AI has not made great leaps forward - and while the enemies are not too shabby once alarmed, they seem to value their life a lot less than they should - resulting in the typical getting-mowed-down-by-i-am-not-a-soldier-protagonist ... in the hundreds.

    Vehicles offer a nice change of pace but the program is not really optimized for them - or so it feels.

    Now - what about the main aspect of the game... is it fun and does the fun last?

    Yes - it is fun. The compromise of gradually unlocking the world, story and sidemissions will keep a player playing and offers a lot of well spent fun time.
    Like Far Cry 3 however - the action becomes easier and easier especially when the player keeps doing every little sidemission prior to advancing to storymissions.

    The UI is well done, the graphics are better than Far Cry 3, which still holds up well today in terms of looks. I should express my ... surprise about the optimization. It runs very well on even mid range computers - that is.. if you can get it running in the first place.

    loading times are rather long but excusable for such a world

    If there had not been a Far Cry 3 ... this game would totally justify a 10/10 rating in my opinion...

    Lets be honest though... since it copies most of Far Cry 3... improves it significantly but still copies most of it... it is an 8/10 for me. A great game - a better protagonist, an antagonist that is not as memorable as the one from Far Cry 3 (but i can live with that trade)

    What is left once the campaign is done....

    not much that other games cannot do much much better - and the open world does not invite much for keeping playing. It does however invite for another playthrough after some time.    … Expand

    The latest patch has more or less completely fixed the mouse acceleration. It has also completely resolved the stuttering when moving around the world for me. Both of these issues had resulted in huge forum threads of complaints (50+ pages) on the Ubisoft forums. Now, nearly a month later, the game is in a MUCH better state than it was on release.

    Since they've addressed those primary issues, I highly recommend this game if you enjoyed FC3. On an i7 4770k and GTX 970, the game is running at constant 70+ FPS on Ultra preset at 1080p with zero stuttering.

    Original post:
    I thought it deserves mentioning that the mouse input in this game is absolutely horrible.

    Both Far Cry 3 / 4 have a "mouse acceleration" setting in the options menu, so you'd think the developers knew what they were doing when it comes to translating mouse input into camera movement. After all, that's the most basic interface of an FPS game. Unfortunately, that isn't the case. The mouse behavior is wildly inconsistent, there is both positive and negative acceleration as well as mouse smoothing. It feels like they took analog stick implementation and tied it to the mouse.

    I move my mouse quickly, my character does a 360 degree turn. I move the mouse slowly across the same distance, my character turns 90 degrees. Aiming precisely is very frustrating. Playing the game with a controller is probably more ideal at this point. The fact that none of the QA testers noticed this indicates they tested the game with a controller and never used the mouse. That said, a lot of people are complaining about it, maybe it will be fixed in a patch. And yes, this may seem picky, but proper mouse control in a 2014 FPS game is expected.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I already wrote a review and that was after a few hours. A few ACTS (as there are Acts in the game, like some sort of play, which is a bit odd but nvm) in, and I'm slightly more reserved about what I think about FC4.
    What I liked to begin with was the music, the general theme of the game and the aesthetics were no surprise coming from Ubisoft, seeing as they've had experience in producing trees and mountainous terrain elsewhere before (gee, wonder how!). It's a very pleasant looking game, but after a few hours, the mountainous terrain becomes boring, if not tedious - because in FC3, all a lot of people found themselves doing was trying to get up hills they couldn't because their wasn't enough grass apparently, and Ubisoft, in their infinite wisdom, instead of fixing it, and giving the main character the equipment with which to properly climb mountains and seriously steep terrain, decided to chuck in the lesser-spotted anchor points for grappling hooks, and the rest is an abundance of terrain that no man, beast or vehicle can pass, except for a buzzer, which will - PROBABLY - go over it. Probably, because the buzzer, though it's a refreshing addition to the list of oft used vehicles that had already appeared before, has one godawful flaw - and that is a very low height ceiling. You can only go so high before it starts with the alarm and the slight spiralling out of control - and that's a little bit annoying, because it kinda takes the joy out of the wingsuit - jump out of the buzzer, hit the shift key, and off you go on a batmanesque trip over the hills and valleys, but not the mountains, you'll just get splatted.
    Then there's another problem with the game, and that is in the second act, you have to escape a labour camp/prison. You're unarmed, and until you can get a knife, you can't do ANYTHING to stop being shot at should you get spotted. There's none of this "let's give them some buttons to mash" mini-games about it, you just get shot to **** and that's it, you're done. That to me was a big let down, because surely you should at the very least be able to punch a chap when he's pointing something shooty at you. But no. You'll just end up dead.
    The game is good, to all intents and purposes it's pretty neat, but after a few hours it becomes tiresome and cliched, because it's been done already - FC3 was it, and you'd think they'd have added some pretty important features to the player's abilities in game, like being able to climb hilly terrain sans grappling hook anchor points - at least give us some climbing gear that lets us NOT use anchor points if we don't want to.
    Generally it's okay. If you absolutely love the FC franchise, there's no doubt in my mind you will probably love this game too - but even as a fan of the FC franchise (I have it all now) number 4 is good, but it feels like they've missed bits they really shouldn't have done. It's not an incomplete game in that respect, but it could well have been better. So it's gone from 10 to 8.    … Expand

The story is passenger stuff, while not to involving it brings you for a ride. It has interesting moments but nothing that will leave you on the edge of your seat.

    No FC has always been about the beautiful locations, and the set of the Himalaya mountain range will leave you suitably impressed. Graphics are good with a great compromise between optimisation and quality which leaves AC:Unity in shame.

    While the gameplay is very much similar to all the previous in the series there is nothing much that I can say is wrong with FC4. Perhaps missions are a little bit repetitive towards the end, but still so much to do, and fun to have.
    If there is one criticism to be had ... are the endings, again in typical Far Cry fashion the Ubisoft always messes up the ending. While you can appreciate the Secret fourth Ending (Which I highly suggest after completing the game) the 3 proper endings leave a lot of questions unanswered, and worst of all just leave everything hanging. This something Ubisoft has never gotten right on any of the FC series, but I have to say overall it's the better, tighter story, and some points of interests ... Ubisoft you're getting better.

    There may be only one criticism... but there is one issue. Hunting animals, honestly I don't know how I should feel about this as part of the game requires you to hunt animals for their fur. Which is interesting from a moral perspective, on the one hand it's just a game, on the other I am still hunting the rare Asian Rhino just so I can have a bigger wallet. Honestly I don't mind having a cheap plastic one. The game its self tries to tone the issue down with hints that the in game animal populations are plentiful, as Kryat is over populated for the specific reason so hunters can pay for the privilege. "Not Endangered, just hunted for sport and their skin" So Ubisoft and Ubisoft Lawyers says that's ok. But honesty there is little part of me saying it's a little wrong for FC to keep doing this.

    Vehicle and weapons are good fun and there is a decent variety though you quickly find your favourites and stick with them. Vehicles are all right but feels like someone has sanded the tread off all the tires. The Buzzer is fantastic, a small helicopter, though it's annoy it has a ceiling height. Money can be earned too easily and you often end up purchasing all the weapons you'll every need from the outset. Outposts, Bell towers, and Fortresses are on the too ease side and still fun to play. NPCs have no concept of self-preservation as you pick off all his buddies as he stands around waiting for your line your sights up on his head.

    A few bugs and issues, but no game stopping problems. A lot of WTF moments, my favourite was when an eagle swooped down and took a goat into the air. "A momma's got to feed her babies...!"

    You are wise to lay off while the game is at full price. This is because it isn’t much different than FC3. There are a few new additions to gameplay and enemy types, but most of it is just the same thing in a different skin. Instead of radio towers, there are bell towers. You still have to hunt animals in order to craft holsters, ammo packs, wallet, etc. You still gather various plants to craft syringes. The mood of the game is still some struggling native freedom fighter “tribe” or “group” against a corrupt drug trafficking tyrant and his mercenary cronies. Outposts are still plentiful and the mechanics with that is largely the same (liberate outpost, disable alarms, try not to be detected, etc.). Wildlife is extremely plentiful to a fault in my opinion. It seems like I can’t breathe without being attacked by a honey badger, pack of wild dogs, a pissed off rhino, or my absolute ultimate enemy the eagle. It sucks to be scoping out an outpost trying to be stealthy, then a tiger or pack of Tibetan wolves just comes up behind you. It seems to never fail. It’s irritating. I have been killed by animals just as often, if not more often, than human enemies. That is what I consider to be “bad”, but more in the sense of “been there, done that”.
    Now for the good parts of the game:
    Graphics are as stellar as ever. Story seems to be slightly rehashed from FC3, but I’ll forgive it due to a broad range of side missions and activities. You can change the direction of the campaign by choosing between the two protagonist leaders Amita and Sabal, both of which have different objectives in spite of being on the same side. I am planning on switching off between them every other mission to keep things interesting. You can learn a skill in order to ride elephants (something I recommend doing early on). It’s like riding a living, breathing tank with tusks. You can ram enemy vehicles, fortifications, and even have the elephant grab a guy with its trunk and smash him into the ground. You have the ability to climb cliffs at grappling points. This makes getting around a little easier. Hang gliders are plentiful, as well as having zip lines and a wing suit. Some cool new weapons were introduced, such as the harpoon gun and auto crossbow. You can also get meat from animals and use it as bait (considered a throwable item like grenades). This attracts nearby predators to cause mayhem among enemies. Sometimes this backfires if an enemy Hunter type is around, because they are able to charm predators into attacking you instead. The main character isn’t a **** at the beginning like Jason Brody was (he’s kind of neutral and calm). This might be a con to you if you like some realism in your character personalities, but he does mention serving in the army, so that might be why he doesn’t act like a ****.
    TL;DR – This game is an improvement upon its predecessor, but only marginally so. The new environment of Kyrat in FC4 is just as vast and fun to explore as Rook Island in FC3, but it seems like the devs for the game just added a few new trinkets to the gameplay, changed the characters, tweaked the story a bit, and then transplanted the game mechanics of FC3 into the Himalayan Mountains. Get the game, but don’t pay $60 for it. I think $40 might be a fair price.    … Expand

Installed from disks, game was patched upon connecting to U-Play.

    I started with Very High settings and my first session with the game was 8 hours. I put in another 6-7 hours into it before writing this review. I did not experience any problems but did notice the stuttering after increasing FOV and as the I explored more areas of the map. I dialed the graphics down to High and reduce the FOV one tick from max and that helped. I did not play FC3 so my score is not at all based on its predecessor.

    Likes:
    + A shooter that's set in a large, open-world with plenty of weapons, missions, and enemies. My take on the story is it's like a Hollywood action movie. It's good enough to drive your character's actions and motivations.
    + Variety of travel options. Run, climb/rappel. Drive, swim, boat, fly, jump, zip lines, elephants. Getting around is fairly easy.
    + I though the gun play and moving around was fine using the Xbox controller. Duh, it is a console port.
    + Missions in the open world are where this game really shines.
    + Crafting, skills, and progression mechanics are easy to understand for a Farcry noob like me.
    + Nice visuals.
    + I love the settings. I've trekked in the Everest and Anapurna regions of Nepal and Kyrat is modeled after the Everest Region. Ha ha maybe a modder can turn this into a Nepal trekking simulator.

    Dislikes:
    - The save/check point system. I'm spoiled by save system of open-world Bethesda Softworks' games like Skyrim and Fallout, so this check point business can get repetitive on some mission. For an open-world game, it's not really always 'open'. What's with this you cannot leave mission area messages? I'm trying to flank the bad guys!
    - The inability to fast forward through cut scenes will make me think twice about replaying this. I hope someday a modder can fix this.
    - Driving is a bit wonky with the Xbox controller but I'm getting better at it with each session. However, if I come across the copter while driving I will always switch to it. Unfortunately, that's not an option on some driving mission. That should say something about the driving control.
    - Some of the side missions take you out of the open-world and can feel rather restrictive and repetitive if you keep failing it like me!
    - Occasional stuttering on fairly high-end gaming rig. I would like to be able to run it on Very High setting. It looked a lot better.

    I was reluctant at first about getting this game especially after reading various comments/reviews about U-play, Ubisoft's PC ports history, mouse/KB control issues, comparison to FC3, etc. I have nothing to report on that front: my game was patched on first launch, u-play always worked, I used a Xbox controller, not a single crash, and my gaming rig handled it just fine on High. That's the problem with games on PC: your mileage may vary.

    For those of you complaining about the lack of FOV slider,the patch added the FOV slider.    … Expand

    Two weak areas in the game are game play and balance.
    Game play is extremely fun at first, but over time it becomes more like quest to finish then addictive play. Even though new tasks or characters are introduced frequently, the essence of the missions remains the same, which makes it dull. I would say I would not consider replaying this game after done the first time.

I would say I would not consider replaying this game after done the first time.

    In terms of balance, this is where I think most the weakness in game play originates from. I played on hardest setting. AI is actually descent, and tends to perform well in most scenarios. They tend to be very aggressive and offensive, and will also independently use heavy weapons and equipment if available in the area. The problem is player’s fire power and its availability. In the beginning, the game seems to be very challenging, but after player acquires heavy rifles, no scenarios or opponents offer any challenge. This essentially turns the game into running and gunning; where most fun is obtained in the ways one perform the “gunning” part.

    Graphics sounds and animations are probably the strongest areas in the game.
    Graphics is realistic looking. Most all objects are HD textures, which only few areas looking more like console quality textures. Overall graphics is decently optimized, and allow even the lower generation of HW to run it with what I would describe as very good visual quality with acceptable FPS. Latest VGA Hw can also do some latest graphical settings such as fur, tessellation, etc.. Animations in play and in the movies are very rich and expressive, which add to the overall immersion. Sounds are very high quality, with nearly all actions having some kind of unique sounds. Overall, the game is graphically very impressive.
    Other consideration: I have not played FC3, but based on the experience with FC4, I would probably wait until I have nothing better to do before trying it.    … Expand

    Far Cry 4 is reminiscent of Far Cry 3 but in all ways nostalgic. It plays through easily and never left me bored and always wanting more.
    There were some optimization issues at first but after a few updates, the game runs like a champ.
    The desire to play through a second time is difficult to find however, it doesn't really have lasting appeal in my opinion.

The controls were fluid and I never once felt like I died from bad control. What I don't like is the healing system. Having to hit ctrl to heal was monotonous. If I didn't have a healing syringe i was stuck waiting behind a wall waiting for the slow healing animation to finish. After running out and killing a few enemy I was stuck behind a wall again healing. Driving cars around Kyrat is fun and its fun to listen to the radio and hear what they say. The stealth parts were the worst as you had to very slowly crouch evrywhere and stop for a minute to wait for a guy to turn around and kill him. It slows the game down so much that it makes me not want to play. On the otherhand, parts where you and the golden path charge bases is always fun and gets your adrenaline going. Pagen Min is a great antagonist as he's fun to watch/listen to when he's there, I wish he talked more in the story than he did. Amita and Sabal are forgettable characters and I personally didn't like either of them. There are many missions that are available like yogi and Reggie were you get high and run for a few minutes then it's done or Hurk where you have to collect these monkey statues (my favorite) and Willis which is are the worst missions. The most dislikable character and some of the hardest and unfair missions in the game. The Golden path missions are very fun and had the most action. Whether your in Kyrat, Shangri La, or the Himalayas it looks amazing!!! The ending was a little disappointing but the atmosphere of the game was great. The crafting system worked well, even though I didn't use it much it was very useful when I did. The different skills you can learn add to the experience (The extra Health bar is the best in my opinion). Overall Far Cry 4 is a great experience, is it the best game of 2014? No, but it is a great game to the Far Cry franchise and made me want a Far Cry 5. Anyone can have fun with this game as there is something for everyone. Far Cry 4 receives a 8.2/10.… Expand

    I'm not sure why everyone is bashing this game. The game is a decent improvement from its predecessor, and the ability to fly and turn on autopilot for vehicles is a total time-saver. The Shangri-La missions were very unique and a nice breath of fresh air from most open world games.

The Shangri-La missions were very unique and a nice breath of fresh air from most open world games.

    People are saying that this game's a carbon copy of its predecessor, but what did they expect? Obviously the game isn't going to differ by much. It's really difficult to improve a game that's already really well done. There are some elements of Far Cry 4 that were balanced better than its predecessor and feel less gimmicky.

    The graphics are just amazing, and the optimization is significantly better than FC3 and Blood Dragon. I did experience some technical issues with the game, though. I noticed that if I alt-tabbed for too long and then returned back, the mouse would lock up unless I restarted the game. For those who multitask like me, this can be troublesome to deal with.

    Also, when I tried to play the game with a controller, all of the key mappings were wrong and there was no way to fix it. It seems to be a known issue. That isn't a big deal if you use the mouse and keyboard, but for those who game with a controller, it will be frustrating.

    Another thing I'll add is that the story was really random and uncanny. In FC3 and BD, you're given a great introduction to a character and a conflict that you really harmonize with. In FC4, you don't really care about the character or what he does. You just go through a bunch of strange missions that don't make any sense.

    The gameplay was improved enough to balance out the overall weak story and help it get a score of 8, but that's about it. It's more like a 7.5, since there are things to like about the game, and also things that aren't as likable. Overall though, I'm content with Far Cry 4, and I enjoyed the Shangri-La missions.

    THE SYRINGE MISSION DLC
    This DLC gives you a taste of the Himalayas map before you actually to those missions. It wasn't particularly long, but it was an interesting little adventure. I wouldn't front the cost of the Season Pass just for it, though. Score: 6/10

    THE BLOOD RUBY DLC
    This DLC mission was very similar to The Syringe Mission, but just in a different context. It wasn't particularly long, and it felt a little too straightforward. Score: 6/10

    HURK'S REDEMPTION DLC
    A set of three missions. The first one was easy, short, and not at all memorable. The second one was funny since you could ride an elephant, but that's pretty much it. The third mission was boring and a bit glitchy. Overall, I just didn't like the character Hurk. It was pretty mindnumbing to watch his cutscenes. Score: 5/10

    THE YAK FARM DLC
    In this DLC, the final fight was challenging, and wasn't a cakewalk like the rest of the game. Although the overall mission was short and simple, it was better than the other DLC missions. Score: 7/10

    VALLEY OF THE YETIS DLC
    This DLC was really enjoyable to play. It wasn't some cheap single mission thing like the previous ones; it was a full-fledged extra map with its own set of missions. The balancing leaves some room to be desired (the Yetis being too strong and the weapons being super weak), but overall the DLC was fun and challenging to play. Score: 8/10    … Expand

    Far cry 4 is is a great follow up to the much lavished far cry 3 improving on alot of things but not really doing anything differently, but i think if you make lots of little improvements to games over sequels it will still make good games . the pokemon franchise has been doing this for years and has worked for that series. but dose it work for far cry ?

    Story: far cry 4 follows the story of Ajay Galle a what seems to be an american college student whos mom passed away and is trying to spread his mothers ashes where she grew up. only to find out where she grew up is under the tyranical rule of pagen min an ex triad revolutionary who took over the country of kyrat and turned it into his personal play thing. but has a surprising amount of loyalty from his subjects, now i have to give special mention to troy baker as he seen what Micheal mando did and then put his own spin on things and that created pagen min. Ajay is then thrust into a war between pagen and the golden path who he finds out his biological father started and has to chose between sabal ( a religious fanatic who wants to marry off little girls and just the worst of the relgious traditions) or Amita ( who wants to turn the whole country into a heroin farm ) so nither choices are good but i still went with Amita the first time cause at least she has some smarts but sabal cares more about his people and this dynamic will lead to a clash down the road where one will end up in hiding or dead but its up to you WHO. the story telling on display here is far more refinded than far cry 3 , the duality is still there withj the tiger and the elephant skill trees , and the choosing of amita and sabal is essentially choosing between your mother and your father as well as makeing pagen min some one who actually came between your parents uhm marriage ? i dont think its explicit said ajays parents are were married but lets assume, pagen was in love with your mom and so for the most of the game he wants you on his side and trys to change your mind ( poorly but he trys)
    Story:8.5/10

    World building: Agent willis huntly , is al i have to say for world building , hes been in every game main game since 3 and his satirical patriotism is always a treat. but besides him there isnt much that connects the games this may keep the franchise from getting stale and its ability to reinvent it self but fallout dose that any ways and look how incredible that games lore is. i know the world building is not the point of this game but i think it could have done a little better. other than that its just pagen doing bad things and the golden path doing good things, so its serviceable.
    World building: 6/10

    Graphics: there is not a single far cry game with bad graphics, far cry 4 has alot of graphical improvements over 3 , clearer picture , shadows and lighting are excellent and the textures and models are crisp, ajay actually has cloths and you can see the cloths and isnt just running around in atee shiort and shorts carrying 4 full sized guns ( although hes still carrying and impractical amount of equipment) , cars look better inside heaving a lot of detail and there is more variety of them. this game looks great and is definitly an improvement on 3.
    Graphics : 9.5/10

    Game play: far cry 4 is formulaic , its a little to much like 3 Witch in the long run im ok with because it game them time to focus more on other avenues like story graphics , locations and sound design. BUT far cry 4 i like to think of the csi new york to far cry 3's csi miami. both good shows and entertaining but different enough . there is more side missions though so they didnt forget to add extra stuff, but the missions arnt what make far cry memorable, every incarnation of far cry the most important thing to it is the guns , how they jerk when you shoot , how your charcter reloads m the models them selves , well far cry 4 takes all the guns from 3 and adds another 20 on top of that and its addicting to try every one and its this simple fact that makes the game feel like dlc rather than a sequel , along with the missions being basically the same. but this game still makes you feel like an action movie hero with a large sandbox and thats all i want out of far cry games , if they continue to do this i will always buy the next far cry game.
    Gameplay: 8.5/10

    Sound design: the most improved part of this game , and it probably went completely unnoticed for most people, the guns still have the same punchy ness BUT the explosions sound incredible , voice acting was elevated haveing alot more stand out performances and more memorable characters . the music was made in a style that fit the games setting as well similar to 3 but done better.
    Sound design: 8/10

    8.5+6+9.5+8.5+8= 40.5
    40.5/5= 8.1/10

    far cry 4 is not a much better game than 3 BUT still adds enough that it is even if its slightly. its easy to see why people think this should have been dlc but its just a slightly improved game.    … Expand

    Kyrat is such a fun place to explore! Kyrat is based on Nepal and brings it's own culture, religion, mountains and landscapes.

    It doesn't just sound good paper, it actually works extremely well in the game.
    You get to experience it yourself through all the side content this game has to bring (which is enormous).

    you can find and destroy masks of a demon carved by cultists, "Mani Wheels" to spin, Propaganda posters to take down, and all of this side content really makes Kyrat feel alive with it's own special culture and traditions. And combine that with the beautiful graphics, the great atmosphere and fitting (if forgettable) music, all of that together makes Kyrat one of the best settings i ever got to experience in a video game.

    The gameplay is good for the most part, it easily could have been better in my opinion, and this brings me to the only reason this game in not a 10/10.

    This game is a technical mess. It has a decent amount of bugs. Rhinos can literally hit you again right after they make you fall on your ass (which was DEFINITELY not supposed to happen, trust me. It's not a feature, it's a bug), when you hide an enemy's corpse in a corner it is almost guranteed to get stuck in a wall and hover like he got nailed to the wall with a hammer, and some side missions were annoyed with the fact that they only got to be completed once, so they demanded the player to complete them again.

    If there weren't so many frustrating bugs and this game wasn't a mess, i would have given it a 10/10 without a doubt, but unfortunately that's not the case here.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. while it does nothing different or better than it's predecessor, the setting and antagonist makes it far more enjoyable (for me) then far cry 3.
    Pagan Min is perhaps the series best villain to date. he's charismatic, a bit unhinged but also conflicted.
    he loved your(ajay's) mother, hated your father and so it leaves him with mixed feelings about you. over the course of the story you learn the truth about the events that lead up to far cry 4's time period. you also discover that your father was as much of a villian as pagan is.
    So, here's the deal; your father knew that pagan had the hots for his wife(your mom) and so he sends her to seduce him. too bad for your father they had a child together, a girl, your half sister. in a rage your father kills the girl and your mother kills him and takes you and flees to america before the resistance kill you both for the loss of their leader. the loss of his daughter kind pushes pagan over the edge.

    over the course of the game it becomes clear that pagan doesn't want you dead, and depending on certain choices you make, you'll find this out for sure. for a far cry game, there's a surprising amount of nuance to the story. it's definitely worth a buy if you liked far cry 3, but felt voss was a bit one noted.    … Expand

    This barely adds anything since FC3 but the graphics upgrade is noticeable and is HUUUGGGEEE. The story disappointed me, as you are basically a puppet working for rebels to free their state. There isnt much content in its story as well because there are only like 32 missions and most of them are boring and short. But still i am giving it 8/10. The reasons are:

    Far Cry 4 - продолжение одного из главных хитов 2012 года. В третьей части нам предоставили отработанную механику, открытый мир и разнообразные активности. Одной из важнейших составляющих Far Cry 3 являлся сюжет. Давайте узнаем, смогли ли Ubisoft повторить успех своего главного хита?

    Завязка сюжета по своей структуре аналогична третьей и последующим частям серии. Главный герой Аджай Гейл попадает на вражескую территорию, наполненную не только блокпостами и деревеньками, а ещё и опасным животным миром и различными биомами. В течение игры протагонисту предстоит узнать историю, связанную с ним кровными узами, а также выбрать судьбу родной страны - Кирата.

    Но не всё так просто в сюжете. Некая изюминка и недоговорённость сохранились. И в конце концов вы задумаетесь, кто ваш друг, а кто враг. Это достигается тем, что характеры персонажей, в том числе и харизматичного главного злодея Пейгана Мина, не лежат на ладони, а требуют глубокого анализа.

    Игровой процесс же не изменился с предыдущей части, но оброс массой и некоторыми нововведениями. К примеру, на горы и уступы теперь можно подниматься при помощи крюка-кошки. Арсенал вооружения стал намного богаче и интереснее.

    Открытый мир изменился. Стало больше вершин и непроходимых мест. Благо для такого рода препятствий разработчики припасли вертолёт. Побочные задания стали интереснее. Теперь за некоторыми стоят новые персонажи, сами цели изменились. Каскадёрские гонки, битвы на арене, ловля экзотических животных - всё это ждёт вас в Кирате.

    Сюжетная кампания также хороша. Есть разнообразные миссии, можно делать выборы на чью сторону встать, что в итоге приведёт к изменению некоторых целей. Дополнение "Побег из Дургеша" позволяет вам проверить навыки боя, а в "Долине Йети" выживут лишь самые отмороженные.

    После прохождения основной кампании, как было сказано выше, можно прибегнуть к официальным DLC. Кроме этого, доступны сетевые режимы и пользовательские карты, на которых можно провести много часов интересного геймплея.

    Четвёртая часть серии "Far Cry" не смогла стать такой же шедевральной, как третья, в основном из-за более приземлённого сюжета, которому не хватает глубины и загадочности. В остальном же это отличный боевик, который закономерно развил механики, заложенные в Far Cry 3.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Far Cry 4'ü oynarken gerçekten de keyif aldım. Far Cry 4, Far Cry 3'e çok benzese de bir önceki oyunda iyi yapılan şeyleri daha da geliştirmiş ve önceki oyundaki bazı eksiklikleri gidermiş. Oyunun hikayesini anlatmaya başlayayım. Oyunda Ajay Ghale isimli karakteri kontrol ediyoruz. Ajay, annesinin son dileğini gerçekleştirmek için Himalayalar'daki "Kyrat" isimli yere gider ve "Lakshmana" isimli yeri bulmaya çalışır. Kyrat'a giriş yapacağı sırada Kyrat kralı Pagan Min'in adamları tarafından Ajay'in bulunduğu minibüs durdurulur ve ufak bir çatışma çıkar. Daha sonra Pagan Min bölgeye gelir ve adamlarına "size otobüsü durdurun dedim, ateş edin demedim" diyerek kendi adamlarından birini öldürür. Ardından Ajay ve yanındaki kişiyi alan Pagan Min onları kendi sarayına götürür. Pagan, Ajay'in yanındaki kişiyi sorgu için aşağı götürür ve Ajay'e burada beklemesini söyler. İlginç olan şu ki oyuncu eğer Pagan'ın söylediğini yapıp burada beklerse bir süre sonra Pagan geri döner, Ajay'i alıp annesinin son dileğini Ajay ile birlikte yerine getirir ve oyun biter. Yani evet, oyun başlangıçtan itibaren hiçbir şey yapmadan yalnızca bekleyerek bitirilebiliyor. Eğer oyuncu beklemeyip kaçarsa oyun başlıyor. Sabal adındaki "Altın Yol" liderlerinden biri gelip Ajay'i alıyor ve ona babası Mohan'ı tanığını söylüyor. Pagan'ın adamlarına izlerini kaybettirdikten sonra Sabal, Ajay'i Altın Yol'un destekçilerinin olduğu bir yere götürüyor. Ajay burada Amita ve Bhadra ile tanışıyor. Amita da Sabal gibi Altın Yol'un liderlerinden biri. Sabal gelenekçi ve eski geleneklere sadık kalınmasını isteyen bir liderken Amita da onun tam tersi eski geleneklerden kurtulmak isteyen ve yenilik yanlısı bir lider. Bhadra da ailesi öldürüldükten sonra Altın Yola katılmış bir çocuk ve Altın Yol'un destekçileri onun "Tarun Matara" isimli bir tanrının reenkarnasyonu olduğuna inanıyor. Ajay, Altın Yol'a büyük katkılar sağladıktan sonra Altın Yol içerisinde yükselir ve Altın Yol liderliği için Sabal ve Amita'dan birini seçer, kimin seçileceğine oyuncu karar verir. Aralarından biri seçildikten sonra hikaye ilerleyince seçilen kişi, Ajay'den diğerini öldürmesini ister. Oyuncu isterse diğerini öldürebilir isterse de bağışlayabilir. Daha sonra Pagan'ın komutanı olan Yuma ortaya çıkar ve Ajay'e annesinin Pagan'ı baştan çıkarttığını (Pagan ile Ajay'in annesi daha önce sevgililerdi) anlatır. Bir süre geçtikten ve Ajay ile Altın Yol güçlendikten sonra Ajay, Yuma'yı öldürür ve Pagan'ı da öldürmek için onun sarayına gider. Pagan'ın adamlarını öldürdükten sonra Ajay içeri girer. Pagan tıpkı oyunun ilk başında olduğu gibi bir sofra hazırlamıştır. Pagan, Ajay'e en başta kaçmak yerine bekleseydi bunların yaşanmamış olacağını söyler ve ardından Ajay'e isterse kendisini burada vurabileceğini, isterse de birlikte yemek yedikten sonra annesinin son dileğini yerine getirebileceklerini söyler. Oyuncu Pagan'ı vurmayı seçerse Pagan ölür ve her şey biter, Ajay de Lakshmana'yı bulamadığı için annesinin son dileğini yerine getiremez. Oyuncu uzlaşmayı seçerse yemekten sonra Pagan onu Lakshmana'ya götürür ve Ajay, annesinin son dileğini yerine getirir. Ardından Pagan Min krallığı Ajay'e devrederek helikopter ile gider. Oyunun hikayesi bu şekildeydi, hikaye çok derin ve detaylı değil ve senaryo konusunda birçok eksiklik mevcut. Hikaye sunumunda ise biraz gelişme var, ara sahneler önceki oyundan daha iyi, bu da sunumu güçlendirmiş. Ayrıca hikayedeki bilinmezlik de hoşuma gitti, oyunun sonuna geldiğimizde bunca zaman iyi tarafta mıydık yoksa değil miydik diye sorguluyoruz. Hikaye kısmındaki bir diğer eleştirim ise aynı önceki oyunda bulunan Vaas gibi bu oyunda da Pagan'ın yeteri kadar işlenmemiş olması, Pagan oyunda yalnızca 20 dakika civarı görünüyor. Oynanış olarak oyun Far Cry 3'e çok benziyor ve yapılan geliştirmelerle oynanış daha keyifli hale gelmiş. Vuruş hissi olarak oyun yine fena değil, silah türleri ve silah özelleştirmeleri de oldukça çeşitli ve iyi, hissiyat olarak da silahların farklılıkları hissedilebiliyor. Yetenek ağacı büyük oranda önceki oyunundaki ile aynı olsa da yeni yetenekler eklenmiş ve çeşitlilik sağlanmış. Yeni birkaç araç (helikopter ve hava yastıklı tekne gibi) oyuna eklenmiş. Ancak yapay zeka maalesef hiç iyi değil. Görev çeşitliliği konusunda bu oyunu bir öncekine göre daha çeşitli bulsam da yine görevler birbirini çok tekrar ediyor. Grafiksel olarak yedinci jenerasyondan sekizinci jenerasyon konsollara geçilmesinin etkisi ile büyük gelişmeler var, performans konusunda da oyunu serinin önceki oyununa göre daha stabil buldum. Far Cry 4, Far Cry 3 formülünü başarılı bir şekilde devam ettiren ve onu geliştirmeyi başarmış bir oyun.… Expand

    The political context and all the correlation with the Nepalese history makes Kyrat overcome the country created in Far Cry 3, but Far Cry 4 does not carry the same weight in its history and seems to have taken the unreal concept that "the good villains are the ones who make Far Cry". It's not just the good villains, but the good protagonists, and Ajay don't have all the potential to this.

    Too many goodies throw into 1, like half of Tomb Raider included. it's getting as good as Battlrfield 2 and Crysis, getting to the age of MS Office's massive functional flexibilities. But holding Q + left SHIFT and moving the mouse cursor to craft some syringe is nasty, as there is not cancel key included (such as keyboard key SPACEBAR) to cancel any selected grid in the circular HUD.Too many goodies throw into 1, like half of Tomb Raider included. it's getting as good as Battlrfield 2 and Crysis, getting to the age of MS Office's massive functional flexibilities.

Rather confusing to master at first.

    (auto drive on main road) Guided and auto pilot route for your vehicles?! It can be turned on or off, but in the end it went buggy and went ON no matter what.

    Having 2 different kind of predators chase you and try to kill you is stupid, it's a tiger and a wild boar both at the same time coming onto you, then in less than few second you got attacked by a snake (after you killed the tiger and wild boar). So let's say the eagle, hawks, vultures and wild dogs are trained by some hunters to attack you, just can't see why so many chain reacted wild creatures attacking you while bomb exploding and gunfires are all around.

    They've make it so much bigger than Far Cry 3, like a fun park, but all you need is a machinegun and sticky grenades to take over all the outposts (no need to hire those Indians assist team either. See?! I never use any of them that I can't remember what the proper name is), the hardest difficulty is not hard enough. You don't want to talk about realism in PC gaming (to any of them), it just a fun park, action, action and more actions. Game of chess is a game of chess, games are mere modern day chess games. Only fools want to talk about realism in games.

    From time to time those Indian assist team pulls up in their jeep, they start shooting into the sky at those eagles or hawks, driving them mad so they has the excuse to swoosh down to attack you.

    I give it a score of 7 because it has "dimension" games that you get to leave for gun battles in another zone. This is Tomb Raider, GTA, Call of Duty throw into 1, and may be there is much more to it?    … Expand

    Far Cry 4 takes the best bits of Far Cry 3, puts a new spin on them and drops its troubling racial politics and constrained mission design. The story and characters a bit more lightweight, but the core remains the same. Overall, this is a leaner, meaner Ubi-style open world experience and the best iteration on the franchise.

    With Far Cry 4 you get what you loved in Far Cry 3 - improved and with some innovations. Playability is great, but it will force you to think of the state of the game industry and everlasting urge of producers to cannibalize their own titles. [Issue#248]
