    So, Far Cry definitely has a formula, but it's that formula that makes it great! This game is tons of fun. The people that keep talking about how it's Far Cry 3 or Far Cry 4 with a new skin aren't really saying anything bad about the game in my opinion. I don't believe it deserves a perfect 10, but some of these ratings are low simply due to personal preference.

The point of the matter is... if you don't like Far Cry games, then don't play Far Cry games. Play something else. Don't play a Far Cry game and expect something completely different. Anyway, it's a great game, and if you've never played a Far Cry game before, then you are in for a great surprise. It is extremely fun to play. Is this The Witcher 3 or Mass Effect 2? No. Is it a great Far Cry game? Yes!… Expand

    Other than that FarCry 5 is an absolute blast to play. The shooting mechanics have been changed massively compared to the previous games. Weapon ballistics make the game much more realistic and the gunplay way more satisfying. This in combination with the improved hunting mechanics alone allowed me to enjoy hours of roaming in the gorgeous setting of Hope County, Montana without following the main quest.

    There is a lot of stuff to do in the campaign and in my opinion the story and side missions are quite varied and fun. I really enjoy the new exploration focus and the removal of the minimap.

    Visually this must be one of the best looking games that I've played lately.    … Expand

    Are you looking to test AI? Perhaps quantify an NPC's reasoning skills? Well you should probably look somewhere else. Even with that said, the game doesn't deserve a knock because there are some very serviceable AI that will KILL you dead!

Even with that said, the game doesn't deserve a knock because there are some very serviceable AI that will KILL you dead!

    The story is deeper than the harshest critics are allowing. It is well thought out and may seem shallow if you are hell bent on picking it apart....but remember we are here for escapism not a literature study. Its fun, cohesive and climatic in the scope of this game.

    Gameplay is superb. Like in most Ubi games, it has all what you'd expect and its executed flawlessly thus far. It runs very well and havn't experienced any optimization problems. I am on a GTX 1070 and I'm 60fps+ on ultra.

    15 hours in, the game is still a riot of a good time. If you are familiar with the FC series, this setting is as wonderful, open and teaming with wildlife. I like it more than the acclaimed Far Cry 3 tropical setting. While its not as big, in my opinion its much richer. With the countless trails, lakes, rivers, mountains, forests, vistas farms and cabins. It has it all.

    I can honestly say that this purchase has been worth it so far as I have not even tried the Arcade Mode in which players create maps and objectives for pvp. While that area deserves its own review, don't convolute the two.

    Far Cry 5 is worth a buy in my opinion.    … Expand

    Buying Far Cry, you always know what you get - a quality shooter in a beautiful open world with a simple storyline and a colorful villain.

The games of the series have not changed much since the time of Far Cry 2, but they are selling perfectly. Players are happy with everything - in the general mass only a few with each new part are indignant that one Far Cry from the other is supposedly not distinguish. Games are really similar, it's logical, the series has its own niche, even its genre, in which there is no competition today. Therefore, I will not again raspinatsya on this topic, and I will not reduce the Far Cry 5 assessment for the fact that it is similar to Far Cry 4. I'd rather focus on what is good and new in the game. This time we go to Hope County, Montana - the northern state on the border with Canada. A picturesque peaceful place with clear lakes, dazzlingly beautiful mountains and forests. Here there are plenty of wild places where time flows slowly, and people live a simple village life. But, of course, with the typical American features: checkered sleeveless jackets, crumpled baseball caps, shotguns in pickup trucks and oversized patriotism in the heads.

    Visual coloring Far Cry 5 works on the top ten. The nature of virtual Montana hits the heart - this is one of the most beautiful games this year, and in our time it's hard to surprise the picture. It is pointless to describe this. Mountain rivers, wheat fields and impenetrable coniferous forests are perfectly combined with well-maintained farms, pastures and tiny towns, creating an incredibly cozy, warm atmosphere. Even despite the GTA-chaos.

    And it's not so much in technology, as in the scrupulous manual work of the authors of the game - for all these years Ubisoft still got a hand and learned how to make worthy, sticky open worlds. The finest elaboration here in everything - from natural species, to interiors and the installation of street lamps. Far Cry 5 is very nice to watch. Always. It's nice to listen to it, because the game performed perfectly on three sides: an excellent sound design, an excellent original soundtrack from Dan Romer and a crazy selection of licensed tracks - the best punk playlist in games since the times, probably FlatOut 2.

Also these little events are a decent thing to do when you have a slow day and decide to do them to get any cosmetic or different weapon skins.I do Like it how the devs are bringing back Far Cry 3 in the season pass. However you could access FC3 at May 29th 2018 and DLCs April 2018. The upcoming DLCs seems to be interesting twists in the American setting, my most favorite is the Vietnam DLC and the Mars one.

    CUTSCENES
    Ubisoft still doesn't understand that cutscenes are meant to give information to players. 90% of this game's cutscenes have no content, as in nothing useful is said. The characters in them simple spout the same few lines over and over with different words. This is probably meant to "build characters", but having them doing the same thing over and over, spouting nonsense, isn't what I call a good use of my time. Usually I watch all the cutscenes in a game (on the off chance there is usable information there), but in this game I just had to start bypassing them. Cutscenes in Far Cry 5 are completely useless.

    MAGIC BULLETS
    I vehemently hate the person(s) who designed the marked or hunted "missions". They are the antithesis of open world and they don't even make sense in the context of the game. You are doing something (as in you have something you want to do), but then people just come up to you with magic bullets and capture you. No chance of getting away from that. In the context of the game, that would be the end of the game. Personally, I've killed thousands of those cultists. So, if they would capture me, they wouldn't let me live.    … Expand

    I love Far Cry series (esp. FC 3 and 4), and I waited for this game 3 years. But most of the time played in FC5 I thought only of why it's so boring. In third path of the game the plot becomes more interesting, and the end just blew my mind with question "is that allowed?". It was really impressive and funny simultaneously.
    FC5 plot is very relevant today, and for this I rate the game in 8 points

The setting is finally set in an American state with everything that screams "AMERICA!". From big guns to big trucks and tractors. Finally a game in redneck country... but with a cult! The gameplay is about the same from Far Cry 4 if you played that one then don't expect too much difference in style. You could argue it is a copy and paste but every game tries to hold some signature style to feel like their own game. Honestly it does feel and play like a Far Cry and there are some differences. Especially knocking cultists with shovels. That's a keeper. The AI from what you may heard is pretty bad. There isn't really any skill but it makes sense as they are just psychotic rednecks running around with guns and trucks with guns and planes with guns. You get it. It is a militia I wouldn't expect skill except from sharpshooters or hunters. It only gets hard as they call more from their psychotic wolf pack and bring in more gun blazing cultists. Now the scenery is where it strikes gold for me. It is just wonderful to look at. Sometimes I just sit back and enjoy a cold one looking at the beautiful landscape the developers created for us as the cultists drive mad on the roads running over anything that crosses them, but I choose to see the beauty in this world. I mean once you explore it you will think "have you seen anything so full of splendor?" I haven't. Not in any Far Cry before. This game without a doubt has the best scenery this year and that is where it ends unfortunately in terms of winning any awards. The story is somewhat stale as you kill your way to finding the father instead of your son who turns out to be waaaay older than you and runs a company of robots. Anyways, I do like the way that you feel trapped and stranded, like most Far Cry games. The villian or (villians should I say) are a "family" and you follow it like a family tree; which is like a nice feel except I've seen it before in another Ubi game...Anywho the Father (Joseph Seed) is very interesting but nothing as insane like Vaas in the 3rd game. I wonder if he knows the definition of insanity... but the ending is where it is very controversial besides the whole cult thing. It is an ending you may not like and it isn't very rewarding. However when I went through it there were two endings (plus a secret one I wish I took) and I of course picked the bad ending cause who the hell picks the good? I just freaking killed half the cult like a purple god with a gold freaking gauntlet! Nothing is going to be good! Anyways it gets pretty weird pretty quick, and of course nonsensical, or at least thats how I took it when I played through it. Now I'm not going to spoil what it is because I want anybody who is reading this that hasn't played it play it because despite the similar Far Cry 4 gameplay feel, it is still a good game. What I am going to say is that the endings will result in frustration and I think it is somewhat satisfying. It leaves you wanting more and leaving with the question "What the F**k just happened?" It may not be the ending people always get in a Far Cry game but I think that is the point. It is refreshing as you leave with frustration but also being mind blown. Going in with expectations with somewhat of a reward of killing someone, oops spoilers, is what will bring you down. But there is plenty of other games with this reward so I am one of the few, maybe only, that is happy it didn't end the way we all expect in a Far Cry game and that was the point. A twist ending in a small little county in a valley full of freaking land and little civilization. Everything executed well for me except the hunting. The last thing I'll say is the hunting is very disappointing as it has changed from the previous games which is very frustrating. And a frustration that is not to be accepted with. (SPOILER) the hunting in this game shows no cutting animation like 3 or 4 or Primal. After killing the animal you wasted so much time chasing for and pressing the loot button, it leaves you with a already gutted animal. Shame. In a world full of wildlife and a setting where hunting should be priority number 1 it is very disappointing. The hunting should've been either the same or better than whatever lazy sh*t they did cause this beautiful landscape is the perfect place for hunting as the environment is very embracing of having the feel of being in the wild, more so than any other Far Cry. But oh well, maybe next time. The whole hunting aspect is the most stale part in a game where it would make sense to be the necessity of surviving and not just for money to buy stupid skins and silly redneck clothes to impress your fellow rednecks and partner. Anyways I give it a 8/10 because it still satisfies in terms of straight out action like any other Far Cry.… Expand

    Best game in this genre for 2018 so far. Superb game play, no bad bugs and tons of things to do. Bonus for all the good player made maps in Arcade Mode.

    Cons: cut scenes can sometimes be excruciatingly long and not skipable. Especially those including the Seeds :) Also, the step up from Far Cry 4 is really not that big. So you gotta like the genre a lot.

    It's exactly what you would expect from a far cry game counting the last two titles. If that's what you want, this will probably hit the mark. The story is fine, and the side missions are a chore but thats more the streamlining of Ubisoft games. DLC is fine-ish.

    Ok, let's start with the fact that this game is a "break-through" in Far Cry series, that's why the first emotions from this game are great.
    Graphics: 8/10, better than in FC4 but still not all 10
    Plot: 7/10, A family of antagonists is smth new, that's why the plot is kind of interesting, except for the prehistory to the story Characters: 8/10, Awful AI, but the antagonists are alive,    Ok, let's start with the fact that this game is a "break-through" in Far Cry series, that's why the first emotions from this game are great.

    Characters: 8/10, Awful AI, but the antagonists are alive, not talking dummies, but characters with feeling ,etc. I don't like that the main character is speechless, they could add some comments. From the protagonists I liked only the pastor, I felt him during the game.
    Open world: 8/10. Not as great as in GTA, no random events, but still great land shafts, lots of raiders and animals and it's fun to kill them cause it has its sense.
    Effects: 10/10, every time the sun stroke into the player's eyes I felt it, when the character was in gas I felt it, when smb jumped in water I felt it, no comments.

Gameplay is still fun , a fine story witch is kinda ruined with a silent protagonist but that didn't bother me much. Another problem is the dumb AI, in most cases when you are driving the AI will just stay in the middle of the road when you get closer and then you accidently kill them, both Allys and Enemys do that.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Tengo que reconocer, que mi puntuación "sobrevalora este juego",a cualquier otro le hubiera dado menos nota...pero este Far Cry 5 tuvo "algo" que no tienen otros, me cautivó su atmósfera y su ambientación. Quería jugar más, quería escuchar su música country, quería seguir conociendo cada esquina del condado de Hope y quería seguir conociendo a todos esos NPS's tan carismáticos.
    Si a esto le sumamos su gran historia, personajes y su (tremendo) final queda una obra redonda.
    Pero como ya he suguerido...no lo es, y tiene fallos casi imperdonables.
    Especialmente dos:
    - El guion de las principales, no me puedo creer la cantidad de veces que te "secuestran" para lavarte el cerebro y forzarte a huir...¿De verdad no hay más escusas narrativas para interactuar con los villanos?
    - La experiencia jugable se va al traste en determinados "Bosses"...el duelo con Faith me parece de lo peor visto en un juego (Dispárame durante 10 minutos)

    Como he comentado, este juego lo recordaré siempre por su ambientación, aún llevo su BSO en el mp3...y SI! tiene mil fallos, pero no puedo no recomendarlo a los amantes de los FPS con exploración y mundo abierto.    … Expand

Отобрать у персонажа голос, это надо кем быть. Им было так сложно сделать 2 голоса? Я просто не понимаю... Конечно еще порадовала традицая Far Cry-я, секретная концовка я имею в виду.

    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.

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. 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 %    … Expand

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.

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.

    Awesome country and graphics, average story. But shooting is awesome its just 11/10 and gameplay too, its so fun play this game you have helicopters, planes so many guns, cars, everything. If you are funboy of far cry like me and dont care about story this is game for you because everything is perfect only story is average mostly bad

    It was my first Far Cry, so I was new to the series, but I like the idea of the cult so I bought it. The gameplay is enjoyable and fun, the scenario was stunning, the story great but not what I expected. Maybe if it wasn't so, I mean, explosive and more focusing on character aspect maybe I could enjoy even more. By the way I like it, 8/10.

    That was one of the best games i played and if anyone liked the previous games i really recommend it to him. Its a definition of a good sandbox game.The story is just crazy and sometimes silly but when you play it you start realising that this is how it should be, that it was supposed to be silly and crazy . I recommend giving it a try. So don't listen to all this haters and jump intoThat was one of the best games i played and if anyone liked the previous games i really recommend it to him.

    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. Far Cry 5 may not have the best story or ending ever but it is one of the best experiences I've had with games for a long time,… Expand

    This is by far my favorite far cry game. it's open-world story-heavy without getting in the way of what you want to do. And it's multiplayer. Its Soundtrack, both musical and orchestral is just phenomenal and perfectly sets the mood and tone for the game. I love the atmosphere of the game I love the story and everything about it. there's nothing bad I have to say about this game besidesThis is by far my favorite far cry game. it's open-world story-heavy without getting in the way of what you want to do.

    Personally i didn't enjoy it. It is a good game but i think it's the worst so far from Far cry series. Looking forward to FC6 though.

    It isn't a bad game. Mechanics and gameplay is fun. Scenerio missions are good but some of the side missions we do to unlock them are boring. Scenerio concept is good but not well processed. Characters aren't good or bad.

    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.

    me gusta mucho la tematica del juego, aunque el final(los dos) es decepcionante

    The graphics, music and gameplay are incredible! I haven't played this game in months, and I'm still listening to the OST. There's a lot of content in this game, justifying the price tag. Overall, it's a great game that I highly recommend.

    Gra bardzo nudna i powtarzająca się, nie potrafiłem kompletnie wciągnąć się w fabułę, przeciwnicy rodzą się na polu bitwy.

    Jedyne plusy dla tej gry to dobra grafika i dobry tryb co-op

    Far Cry 5 is a nice and funny FPS that you’ll enjoy most in co-op. The well-proven concept would deserve a rejuvenation and adding a story that is adequate to the rest of the game. [Issue#285]

    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!
