    Personally, my favorite of the Far Cry franchise. I love the story here and the environment the game is set in. Although these games really feel like a copy paste job for the most part, I found myself having the most fun playing this one vs the others

    Przepiękna gra, która zmusiła mnie do zapoznania się z książką, ponieważ to, o czym opowiada ten tytuł to coś pięknego. To w jaki sposób został przedstawiony motyw kultu oraz podejścia do swojej wiary i to jak to wszystko się prezentuje na tle zalesionego stanu Ameryki. Postacie nadały niesamowitego klimatu tej odsłonie a muzyka go jeszcze bardziej dopieściły. Polecam z całego serca.Przepiękna gra, która zmusiła mnie do zapoznania się z książką, ponieważ to, o czym opowiada ten tytuł to coś pięknego.

    If you want to play something just to relax and you do not have to follow the plot, then this game surprisingly turned out to be a very pleasant entertainment.

    Spielerisch das beste Far Cry bisher!

    Es ist flüssiger denn je, das Thema ist zwar nicht meine Lieblingsstory aber auch diese wird nach der ersten Insel richtig gut. Es steht einem auch total frei wie man das Spiel spielt, es gibt keine Stealth oder All-In Vorgaben, man kann es immer machen wie man möchte und muss auch keine Angst haben, dass man deswegen keine Kapazitätserweiterungen

    Es ist flüssiger denn je, das Thema ist zwar nicht meine Lieblingsstory aber auch diese wird nach der ersten Insel richtig gut. Es steht einem auch total frei wie man das Spiel spielt, es gibt keine Stealth oder All-In Vorgaben, man kann es immer machen wie man möchte und muss auch keine Angst haben, dass man deswegen keine Kapazitätserweiterungen durch Herausforderungen verpasst, das gibt es zum Glück nicht mehr.

    Zudem freut es mich sehr, dass man nicht mehr gezwungen wird Tiere zu jagen oder zu Fischen um Waffen / Werkzeuge / Erweiterungen freizuschalten. Pflanzen sind schwerer zu entdecken, ist aber auch nicht wichtig, es gibt Säcke und Kisten in denen sie auch enthalten sind, bin eigentlich immer voll damit. Zudem kann man von jeder 15 Stück tragen, dadurch kann man sich auch alle vier Buffs immer komplett herstellen. Materialmanagement und Sammel-/Droprate zu 100% verbessert, so ist es perfekt!
    Es gibt genug Skillpunkte, die Begleiter sind cool, die Menü´s sind super, viele Fahrzeuge, ich habe nichts auszusetzen!

    Die Map ist in 5 Gebiete unterteilt, drei Große von je einem der Kindern des Vaters von denen man jeweils eine Fortschrittleiste des Gebiets volllevelt und dann irgendwann eingefangen, betäubt, etc. wird und dann erstmal in eine Story-Szene anschaut, auch mal ein neues freshes System, top ausgedacht und umgesetzt!

    Das erste Spiel in dem ich ein Neues Spiel + gemacht habe!

    Coming from a very un-bias perspective I have to say this is the second best far cry in the series next to 3. The story is so cool and brings new and funny mechanics into the game that really livens it up.

There is a lot of side quests but the main story was so interesting that I almost didn't finish any of them and I rushed through the main plot very quickly. Of course you can complete everything after the story and it is grate that nothing is holding the player to just focus on main campaign and nothing else. I wasn't bored in any minute of my playthrough there is a nice doze of humor and action. World is big very good looking and full of interesting places and locations. AI of enemies can be little bit dumb but because of that game is little easier. Moreover soundtrack is just brilliant! Every track on the radio was a blast and joy to listen. Far cry 5 is a game that you will remember and it's definitely worth your time and money. Expand

    I only played around 10h but Ubisoft really put an absurd amount of work into this. I was very pleasantly surprised. The story is intelligent and well implemented, gameplay is fun (at least when you only play every other far cry, there are similar - shocking!).

    I had a good time playing FC5. The plot (even tho predictable) was great. Some characters had quite the personality. Many things to do, didn't bored me.
    There was just a major issue : the fact that the main plot is catching up with you if you don't do the main quests, and that's pain in the A, for an open world, in my opinion. Oh and the AI or friendly AI was also kinda stupid sometimes.

    Far Cry 5 is the fifth major installment in the famous FPS series Far Cry. It was released in 2018. The game follows the well known Far Cry formula, and the gameplay is really very, very similar to its predecessor. And yet there are changes. First of all, no more exotic locations, this time we visit good ol' Montana. It is a nice change and the country looks great.

First of all, no more exotic locations, this time we visit good ol' Montana. It is a nice change and the country looks great. But most important for me was the story. I feel that it is much stronger than in the previous Far Cry games. The very beginning of the game is very atmospheric, very strong, it really sucks you in. Sadly the actual game is not so strong as far as story is concerned. I actually feel that this time the game could have been more story oriented, there was certainly a huge potential there. Also the middle part of the story is pretty predictable. But all that is luckily overshadowed by the ending. You get three endings, and none of them can really be views as a good ending, despite what you can read on the internet. Both regular endings are very strong and yet without any pathetic Hollywood happy ending. This is really great, I was honestly surprised and overjoyed. The third, secret ending is pretty obvious this time, but still cool and in the end, it might be the best one, depending on your worldview I guess. There are other positives too. The graphics looks amazing, the game font is pretty as usual, and this time the music is fantastic as well. There are some negatives, but I have to say I have generally positive view of this game, better I would say than with Far Cry 4. There are some minor annoying things, like the ever present enemy aircrafts and helicopters, which are really bothersome, or the story car chase, which is just incredibly difficult compare to the rest of the game (at least on the highest difficulty, which I had to temporarily lower for this car chase only). Your allies are mostly written to resemble perceived redneck stereotypes, it is usually not so bad, but nothing great either. There are some microtransactions and some SJW, but honestly it could have been much worse on both fronts.

    DLCs:

    Hours of Darkness - The first DLC takes you to Vietnam, and of all three DLCs this one is the most serious and straightforward one. This story takes place during one night in the Vietnam Jungle, it is pretty atmospheric, but all in all, nothing to write home about. Verdict: 63 %

    Lost On Mars - Crazy sci-fi shootout with Nick Rye and Hurk Jr. I have to say, I did not know what to expect and I was really pleasantly surprised by this one. It is pretty funny throughout and the action is quite different from the regular Far Cry experience. Best Far Cry 5 DLC for me. Verdict: 86 %

    Dead Living Zombies - Guy Marvel pitching 7 zombie movie ideas to different directors. Also pretty funny, but very short (less than 2 hours). I bet this one was made to fill all of the SJW quotas. Verdict: 68 %

    In all honesty, I believe that the story of this game touches something really big and serious. A huge problem we are dealing with on everyday basis: The Modern World. So I am not usually big on religious cults, but I would join this one in a heartbeat. Final Verdict: 82 %

But still, with each game of the sequel, Far cry games quality is increasing constantly. And i can say, Far cry 5's game elements are flawless.
    I know there is only one thing separates far cry games to each other and it is the story and atmosphere. And this game's American spirit atmosphere is really strong. But still, game's devoloped simple mechanics are quite enjoyable. They just same with the 4 other games before, but it still feels fresh and quality. I think the most important thing that makes the game enjoyable is the short playtime. Game can be finished easily under 20 hours. And it is awesome, because story is predictable and the game's mechanics are kind a linear.
    Long story short, this is an obviously good game.

    This is more or less what you expect from a modern open world game -- while most of the game is just ok, once in a while you get these moments of chaotic emergent action which you want to tell other people about.

My favorite moment was an attempt to clear a roadblock setup by cultists; while I was setting myself up to stealthily kill them one by one, a few resistance fighters showed up from nowhere and turned the whole thing into a chaotic firefight. More cultists arrived, and the fight became tense, when suddenly ***a runaway moose decided to flip a truck*** which then exploded near my enemies turning everything into a fiery nightmare. Anyway, the roadblock was gone... ok, it was replaced by a cemetery of charred vehicles which still blocked the road, but, hey, all the cultists were gone, mission accomplished! :D

    The game has tons of interesting systems: there are grappling mechanics, ziplines, cars, trucks, boats, planes, helicopters, pets... You can even go fishing, and the world is beautifully rendered with its forests, mountains, rivers and lakes. And your companions, your enemies, random passersby, animals, water, all these things interact in interesting ways. Cougars hunt for deer and are ran over by ATVs, independently from what you are doing, but you still have enough control of the action to find the whole thing pleasant.

    Well, with a few exceptions: there are a few instances where the game interrupts whatever you are doing to start a story mission even when you do not want it. These moments are very annoying (especially because the story missions which follow feel quite bland), but are very few and are not enough to turn this into a bad game.

    I also found the villains underwhelming; they have lots of lines, but they do not reveal much of their characters beyond "we are deranged cultists, each one of us defined by a single character trait which features in every single line we say". Even the main villain has long speeches that felt a bit repetitive and which weren't that interesting to me.

    Also, the game is slightly bloated with dull missions and collectibles. Well, at least you can buy maps which show the collectible's locations, and I must admit that the world is beautiful to explore... but I wish games did not have so many of these menial tasks which we players which are slightly OCD never manage to leave aside. Oh, and fishing with the mouse is way too cumbersome -- if you want to fish, use a controller (still boring, but at least doable).

    A final negative point is the fact that you MUST use Ubisoft Connect on top of Steam to run this. Isn't one piece of DRM enough?

    But, all in all, I had lots of fun with the 50hs I spent with this. Score: 84/100.

КартаДобрый день, хоть я и не фанат серии Far Cry, но эта часть серии заставила меня обратить внимание на эту франшизу. Но почему 8/10 ? Сейчас объясню : 1 Сюжет тут интересный, главный ,,злодей, а точнее злодеи,, выполнены в запоминающимся стиле, все их диалоги пропитаны частичкой чего-то непостижимого, при устранении каждого из них будет уникальная миссия, и вы ее точно не забудете. Карта состоит из нескольких регионов со своими игровыми особенностями, врагами и друзьями... 2 Но хватит о сюжете, геймплей тоже важен. И с ним проблем нет, все в рамках стандартных игр от Ubisoft, выполняем миссии, убиваем сектантов,очищаем аванпосты, ищем союзников, завершаем сюжетную арку, тюнингуем оружие и машину, и снова двигаем в следующий регион... Ну в общем вы поняли.
    3 А нам необходимо поговорить о графике. Ну что можно сказать, все великолепно смотрится , трава и деревья радуют глаз, вода прозрачная, дома и персонажи на высоте, в общем к графике нареканий нет( игра тестировалась на 2к мониторе с процессом i7 7700k с частотой 4000, видеокарта rtx 3070ti Asus rog strix, оперативка 16 Гб, настройки ультра, разрешение рендеринга 160% в 60-75 fps). 4 Игра однозначно стоит вашего внимания, только 2 проблемы: очень неинтересное начало, после вступительной миссии можно повеситься, но если разобраться и выбрать правильный путь , то игра откроется вам во всех красках. И ещё очень тупой ИИ, и сравнивая с АС Вальхалла или АС Одиссея вам будет скучно идти в бой или играть по стелсу, хотя это уже личные нарекания.

Интерфейса намного меньше(мне так больше нравится). Оптимизацию, на удивление, завезли. Открытый мир большой и интересный. Эта часть имеет совершенно полностью переработанные все аспекты. Концовка меня вообще поразила (Иосиф был прав, коллапс настал). Единственный минус, который я нашёл - то, что вырезали эффектное добивание с пронзанием врага насквозь, которое было в предыдущих частях. Офигенная игра. Expand

    Its a good RPG with a compelling story. Maybe the best Far Cry came to date.

    С технической точки игра хуже FC4, так как мир стал более декоративным, деревья даже не реагируют на взрывы и вертолёты...
    Но сюжет очень хорош, особенно после FC4, пройдя которую я было очень разочарован в сюжете.
    Финал FC5 мне очень понравился, даже ком в горле был, от нахлынувших эмоций.

And are you killing the good guys through the entire game?) based on Joseph Seed's alarmism (for what???), this is the second best FPS has ever been made (the first is Dying Light).

    The game mechanics is awesome, the map is incredible, both good and bad characters are awesome, the fighting, the movement are entirely first class (try to play Outer Worlds after this. You just can't.), whaddaya want more?

    Pros (a few of the many others): The game's story is pretty curious the graphics are beautiful, there are so many cool guns, and the biggest pro: you can pet all the dogs in the game. Cons: even tho the story is great and the graphics are beautiful, the game gets boring very quickly, the enemy's AI is more stupid than me (and I'm very stupid). Summary: The game is great but it can get boring fast.

I've played through the story of this game about 4 times, on multiple different systems, and I never get tired of playing this. It also has many side activities that keep you busy if you decided to take a break from the main story. Additionally these activities will still be available after the main story and so it gives you plenty to keep yourself occupied after then.

    The developers didn't include the in depth hunting system from the previous Far Cry games and instead changed it so that skill points give you those upgrades you would usually earn from hunting, which does make the game lack for one it's greater features.

    Overall I rate this game a 9/10 as the game has many perfect qualities but due to the watered down hunting system I cannot give it a full 10.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Far Cry 5 is that little bit of chaotic open-world escapism we all need. The story is not the most joyful in the world but the Seed family all seem to have motives and backstory that contribute to their actions and almost make the player feel a level of empathy for them, Other than Jacob of course, he's just some military fella (That's all the backstory he's given in effect). Each region poses unique mechanics and threats however Faith's region has the most diverse gameplay in my opinion. In this region we learn more about the hallucinogenic simply referred to as "Bliss" and how it is developed and the reasons it is used. Now many people do complain about the ending but I found it hard to regard in the grand scheme of things, the ending wasn't important to me as I enjoyed the game as a Co-Op experience because the main feature that made me buy this game, A full Co-Op campaign and it was ridiculously enjoyable; Liberating outposts, Engaging in dogfights, taking out enemies with shovels and hell, even the fishing was fun.

    By advancing, you get some perks that allows you to get a stronger character: faster, more spots for weapons, bigger magazine, etc. …

    Last but not least, for those who cares, the story is nice, the universe is realistic, the soundtrack (that you can hear online on places like Youtube) is pure gold, the scenery is gorgeous.

Great game and finally brings the franchise to the upper echelon of open world titles.

The game is EXTREMELY enjoyable when you have a friend to play with. Sections I'm sure as hell I'd be frustrated with end up being hilarious when there's someone there that could just revive you and negate the dumb death.

    This fresh take on the Far Cry franchise is clearly visible content-wise, but a tad more discrete on the style. If you're not bothered by the slightly repetitive formula, you'll enjoy the many strengths of this episode.

    Far Cry 5 doesn’t propel the series forward — it just refines all of its elements and relegates the infamous towers to the dustbin of history. So if you‘re allergic to open worlds from Ubisoft, don’t say I didn’t warn you. But if you’re eager to meet new wacky characters, complete dozens of missions and enjoy the sights, welcome to Hope County, sinners!
