Doing missions and collecting stuff is good as usual. However, there are quite a few annoyances:

    - Body armor is practically useless, gets reduced after a few hits, including animal attacks.
    - Animal attacks everywhere, can't get to a mission location without being attacked and wasting ammo and health.
    - The helicopter is great but can't remember where they are except a few places and the map only shows them if they are next to you.
    - Some towers have helicopters but they can't be fast travelled to.
    - 50% of the time, if I fast travel to an outpost and try to leave for a mission/task, the outpost gets attacked and I have to turn back to help out which wastes ammo and health.
    - High powered sniper rifles able to take down heavies come too late in the campaign, when there are less useful.
    - Performance is acceptable but hiccups due to loading happens quite a lot despite being installed on an SSD.
    - Enemies teleport sometimes, which makes picking them off from afar difficult because if the shot misses, they get alerted.
    - I don't get the weapon accuracy, especially the bow. Sometimes I need to compensate for distance and drop, other times not. Enemies tend to sway their head quite more often than in FC3.
    - Unmemorable location names; can't name any of them.
    - There are lot of collectibles and they don't show in the map if it is zoomed out to far; I wish you could jump back and forth between the locations of certain collectibles.
    - I spent the first 10 hours hunting for animals so I could get my equipment levels up. Starting out with a single weapon slot is ridiculous.

    In conclusion, its a good game but doesn't go much further than FC3; if you liked FC3, collectibles, free roaming and sandbox gameplay, you should play this game.    … Expand

    This game is so poorly optimized Ubisoft is starting to become EA now and I hate to say it but EA is the one improving now they must first check the quality of there release before releasing it Graphics and Storyline is decent but a lot of gamer are having a hard time with all the stuttering, glitches and Graphical issues.

    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. 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. 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

The most annoying part is the story, with absolutely illogical script, missions don't make any sense, and characters aren't interesting at all.

    But if you want to burn 60$ and a couple of days, you may buy it. It's not so bad game, as it can be (sic! Unity)

    Far cry 4 really is a good game but, for a few reasons, it has to be marked down.

    1: It's just Far Cry 3 in a different place. That's no bad thing as Far Cry 3 was a brilliant game but when you're being asked to shell out £40 for a "new" game, it's a little insulting to find that it's little more than a big expansion pack. 2: It has obviously been developed for consoles first.

    2: It has obviously been developed for consoles first. This means clumsy UIs and some really basic errors that shouldn't be present in a released game. See points 3 and 4.

    3: Out of the box it's unplayable due to mouse acceleration that cannot be turned off without unpacking, editing and re-packing the game files. The mouse sensitivity is also painfully low, which means that you have to have it cranked up to 100% to get close to being playable.

    4: The game runs at 60FPS for me but it doesn't feel like it. Due to a stuttering issue it feels as though it's running at 15FPS. It's painful to look at but it can be cured by buffering frames.

    5: Point 3 means that you can't play the game on multiplayer as the edited game files make the server think you're cheating.

    So, in conclusion, if you're happy to pay £40 for some DLC that either sort of works as single player only, or doesn't work at all but is single and multiplayer, then go for it. Otherwise wait until they get off their arses and patch out the problems that should have been caught in alpha testing.    … Expand

    This game is special for me and for all Indians. Playing a world class game with characters speaking Hindi(especially the abusive language used is so typical of Hindi) was truly a delightful experience.
    Apart from that the game is fun to play, visuals of Himalayas are stunning , gameplay is flawless and the story telling in shang re la part is indeed inspiring.

So at first glance this game is pretty good, however a few hours of gameplay later and you will be telepathically screaming pure, unbridled hatred at Ubisoft for releasing an unfinished game. So to summarize...

    1. Game fails to save half way through campagne (if you're lucky).
    2. The game will crash to desktop 1/5 times you play.
    3. Game will crash if you don't complete a mission "correctly".
    4. Texture popping becomes distracting.
    5. AI is very glitchy and poorly implemented.
    6. Textures can be clipped through causing you to fall under the map.
    7. Story is terrible and predictable with some recycled audio/character models from FC3.
    8. Audio often switches off randomly.
    9. Character glitches are quite common.
    10. The "open world" is covered, and I mean COVERED in invisible walls.    … Expand

    The game runs extremely smooth on my PC and I have everything on Ultra so there is no performance issues. The story line and side quests are amazing and way better than the previous Far Cry games that I have played. Every side quest in Far Cry 4 have so far been a lot of fun where you want to do side quests and you want more of them!

    There are a lot of comments where people are saying that Far Cry 4 is basically the same game as Far Cry 3 and some are calling it Far Cry 3.5. What a load of CRAP! Far Cry 4 is Far Cry 4 and is totally different than Far Cry 3. Hell the graphics engine used in Far Cry 4 is different than Far Cry 3 and you can see the difference in details if you have played both. the graphics in Far Cry 4 are simply sublime!

    A lot of new game mechanics in Far Cry 4 like the Grapling, Gyrocopter, riding elephants, using animals to help take down outposts etc.

    Far Cry 4 is by far the best game release that I have played for 2014. It is a lot of fun and I highly recommend it. Ignore the negative reviews as I doubt they really played the game.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've never played such a buggy mess before... Screen goes black when you start the game, crtl + tab twice fixes it, the same happens when you go from the options to the main menu. When I turn on Fullscreen, leave options (of course it goes black), its back to windowed mode...
    The aiming with mouse is horrible, playing wth a 360 cntroller works, but it hasn't enough buttons for all actions.
    Sometimes you take damage, when you fall down 1 Meter...

    And now to the worst...
    The game sometimes doesn't notice you progressing!
    Right at the beginning, at the first bell tower you get the grapple. I took the grapple, but the game somehow didn't notice this, the grapple was gone and i couldnt use it, because the game didn#t notice that i took it...
    OK... start again... Took the grapple again, worked, climbed up the tower and destroyed the radio thing, nothing happened, current quest is to destroy this thing... game didnt notice, that i destroyed it...
    Ok... start again... 2 times, the third time the game noticed, that i destroyed the thing!
    Good quest complete. I saved the game and closed it.
    After a few hours I started FC4 again. In game I was standing in front of the Grapple, bell tower mission still active!!! Didn't save my progress... I now have given up trying to play this buggy mess...

    And btw you are forced to download Uplay and have an account to play FC4. Steam and Uplay must be running in the background for FC4 to "work"...

    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.

    Don't understand all of the "it's like Far Cry 3" complaints. Guess what? Far Cry 3 was like Far Cry 2 and Far Cry 2 was like the original Far Cry. It's a huge, sandbox adventure series that has the same components - capturing strong points, fighting off animals, crafting and following a "be the hero" story line. If people are looking for something completely different, go play MetroDon't understand all of the "it's like Far Cry 3" complaints. Guess what?

    Only into it about 4 hours, but beautiful graphics, engaging story line, great action sequences and a HUGE world to explore. Just what the doctor ordered.

    If you're a Far Cry fan - that's FAR CRY, not anything else - that follows the Far Cry series recipe, you'll enjoy this one as much or more than the previous versions.    … 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.

    The PC version of Far Cry 4 suffers of some optimization issues, but is still the best looking and performing one.

    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]
