    Great Far cry romp that is in my opinion better than Far cry 5.
    Graphic are brilliant, game play is brilliant, story is a little meh, but who plays it for the story.
    Great fun and worth the money.
    Most that vote it down is because it's colourful or don't own the game and just wan to hate. The colours in the game really work to add atmosphere.

    Очень сильно удивился, сюжет крайне сильно затянул. Деление оружия на уровни поначалу показалось бредом, но потом сильно втянуло. В общем игра на удивление хороша.

    Хмм мою оценку с отзывом удалили интересненько.))))

    Игрушка хорошая, если вам понравилась 5 часть, то и эта тоже понравится. Школьникам с юношеским максимализмом она не понравится, так что не стоит вам тратить время и маминых денег на игру.    Хмм мою оценку с отзывом удалили интересненько.))))

    Even adventuring around the world has enough to entice you to stay in Hope County, as well as liberating Outposts over and over again with progressive levels of difficulty, as you progress in the story the enemy behavior changes too. Fighting and problem solving simultaneously is new to the series which makes for great game play. I own every game in this series and was thinking I'll take a pass on New Dawn sure glad I didn't because it's turning out to be well worth my time and money.

    For thoughts of us who are well versed in the series and who has just played Far Cry 5 knowing that games ending gives us more details on characters we've already met which makes New Dawn even more enjoyable to play. I feel this is a must have for anyone who loves this series as I do plus lots of content to be had 12-15 hours or more..    … Expand

    Some fools decided to drop the rating of the game without playing. Ok, well done.

    But what can I say, I played all FCs and its spin-offs.

    The game is not letting me go and I have alreday played for 20 hours in 3 days.

    Nice and various weapons, strong mobs, new game mechanics, a good plot, excellent graphics.

    Cons, this game could be done even better! By adding some more bosses, develop the theme of mutant animals, add weapon effects like in Bordelrands.

    In fact, an excellent and high-quality experiment with the series, my advise for you is to ignore those bad fake reviews and try the game for yourself.

    RUS

    Кто-то тупо решил обвалить рейтинг игре не поиграв. Ок, молодцы.

    Но вот что скажу, играл во все части, прошел все части FC и спин-оффы.

    Игра нереально затянула и наиграл 20 часов за 3 дня.

    Охренительное и разнообразное оружие, сильные мобы, новые механики игры, неплохой сюжет, отличная графика.

    Минусы, эту игру можно было сделать еще круче! Добавить больше боссов, развить тему мутантов зверей дальше, добавить оружие по типу bordelrands.

    По факту отличный и качественный эксперимент с серией, советую не вестить на высеры и попробовать игру самому.    … Expand

    As a player who haven't played Far Cry 5 I loved it. Other people say that the game is bad just because its similar to FC5.? But if you did not play Far Cry 5 BUY NEW DAWN!!!

    Сколько незаслуженного хейта в сторону этой игры , для многих Far cry вообще "умер" после 3 части . Игра тянет на твёрдую 7 из 10 , но поскольку слишком много недалёких , то приходиться ставить 10 из 10 , дабы исправить положение

    If you enjoyed Far Cry 5, you will most likely enjoy this too. It nicely rounds off the story from Far Cry 5. The new levels system for enemies is perhaps a little odd and takes some getting used to,

    I bought this game only because I wanted to know what happened to Seed and the deputy. The game was extremely fun, I loved the new game elements, the expeditions, and the level grinding too.
    The only problem with this game is that it's too short, the main story can be completed in about 10 hours.

    very very good mechanics, fast gameplay

    i finished this game twice

    the world and its secrets were really impressive it was so nice to find their notes in different parts of the map and remember from far cry 5.

    the story sucks, I write by keeping it apart :)

    Für mich ein vollwertiges Far Cry!

    Ich habe Far Cry 5 schon in den Himmel gelobt und findealles in New Dawn nochmal etwas besser gemacht. Medi-Kits und Würfgeschosse einfach im Waffenrad beim Laufen herstellen, man hat gefühlt unendlich Materialien, ein sehr gutes Waffenstufen-System, ausballancierter Schwierigkeitsgrad, sehr gut mit den Außenposten umgesetzt und die Expeditonen sind    Für mich ein vollwertiges Far Cry!

    Ich habe Far Cry 5 schon in den Himmel gelobt und findealles in New Dawn nochmal etwas besser gemacht. Medi-Kits und Würfgeschosse einfach im Waffenrad beim Laufen herstellen, man hat gefühlt unendlich Materialien, ein sehr gutes Waffenstufen-System, ausballancierter Schwierigkeitsgrad, sehr gut mit den Außenposten umgesetzt und die Expeditonen sind ebenfalls eine Klasse Idee gewesen, da kommt man nochmal an Orte die man über die normale Open World nicht erreichen kann.

    Man kann auch wieder entscheiden wie man spielt, ich mag Stealth eigentlich überhaupt nicht aber in Far Cry habe ich da immer mal wieder tatsächlich Bock drauf. Das Menü wurde nochmal verbessert, man levelt die Basis, man levelt seine Begleiter hoch, nach 15 und 40 Abschüssen, ok sie leveln sich selber hoch aber man sollte sie am Anfang erstmal alle bis sie 15 Kills haben mitnehmen, weil es ja auch schwieriger wird und das erste Upgrade denen schon sehr hilft bzw sie gut stärkt. Die Skillpunkte sind überhaupt nicht knapp, es gibt 10 X 3 für die Schatzsuchen wie man sie auch den Prepper Verstecken von Far Cry 5 kennt und genügend durch Herausforderungen, man muss sie sich gar nicht durchlesen, macht man fast alles automatisch, a und zu ggf. mal die Waffenklasse wechseln, das reicht, ansonsten gibt's auch noch durch Expeditionsabschlüsse Skillpunkte, die sind nach Stufe 3 unendlich wiederholbar und machen echt Spaß.

    Ich weiß nicht was viele an der Story auszusetzen haben, das Spiel ist zwar etwas kürzer, wenn man alle Expeditionen und Außenposten auf allen Stufen macht, wobei die zwei Aktivitäten jetzt immer sehr schnell vorrüber sind, kommt man auf eine Spielzeit von 20 - 25 Stunden. Die Story ist GUT, die Zwillinge sind richtige Bada**e und haben eine gute Vertonung, ich empfehle auf jeden Fall vor diesem Spiel Far Cry 5 zu spielen, ich habe mich immer sehr gefreut, wenn ich etwas wiedererkannt habe und es ist sehr spannend wie sich die Charaktere verändert haben, ein super Spiel! Ich habe nichts zu bemägeln, das einzige was man machen könnte, wäre den Speicherpunkt nach Abschluss der Story nach dem Kampf der Zwillinge zu setzen, damit man die Chance hat jede Entscheidung einmal auszuwählen. Aber ansonsten 10/10.    … Expand

    After Far Cry 5 I didn't have much hope for New Dawn, not sure what everyones problems is I have ultra setting @ 107fps average. Story is interesting and overall feels a lot more like Far Cry again. Visuals and graphics are magical and the game play is extremely fun. Everyone **** like this we will end up with another FC5 please stop

    But please Ubisoft, remove this RPG-like gameplay, removing HP bars, numbers when shotting people, hard to kill enemies and no saw launchers on next games, please.    … Expand

    This is my 3rd Far Cry experience and so I'm quite satisfied with it. The game is cheaper than it's other parts since it's a spin-off and not a Far Cry 6 game.
    However, the gameplay, graphics, and plot were so great! It was simply awesome and interesting + saddening to see Hope County after the Nuclear end of the world.

    The people that voted for this game with negative scores are players that haven't even played the game for over half an hour it feels like.

    The game was good and I had a blast. I played it in normal difficulty and have to admit that even that felt like easy difficulty for me after reaching a certain part in the game. I might switch it up to the hardcore difficulty.

    There's not a lot of game time in this spin-off, seeing as there are only 22 Story missions and only 8 side missions. But the new systems they implemented on outposts and enemies are quite cool and I've already grown fond of them hoping they make a return in the next installment.
    The game was so much fun that I played it 3 days in a row without touching my other games AT ALL.

    There are microtransactions in the game, but they are quite useless since you can grind everything AND it doesn't even take that long. ''Prestige'' is the status for some weapons and vehicles which makes them buyable with the new currency, but they are completely buyable with in-game resources and thus grinding.

    The weapons were creative and they had a fun descriptions of them. I loved the neon color scheme the game had (Rage 2 and Fallout 76 also have a neon color focus, but those games are well known to have sucked)

    Buy it and support Ubisoft since they made a fun experience once again and a lovely destroyed Hope County map for us to explore yet again!    … Expand

    I treated this game as an expansion for Far cry 5 with a twist (and bought it priced as such). That is exactly what i got and more. Personally I thought it was a massive improvement over FC5, if only there was more of it.

    I can't get about what bad optimizaion people are talking. The game handles constant 60 fps+ on 4k@ultra settings using RTX2080 without single stutter/lag. In same time oldie GTX970 handles 45+fps on 1080p@ultra
    Metro Exodus and AC:Odyssey have a lot worse optimization.
    The game is fun. I played all Far Cry games, and it feels good. Just forget that you played FC5:)

    Open world in New Dawn exists for one single purpose: to let player engage next group of enemies on his own terms. Hopefully, in next game Ubisoft will finally get rid of RPG elements (mainly, bizarre multi-tiered guns) and go back to the formula of first Far Cry. [Issue#236, p.54]

    Only full-time members of Joseph Seed's cult hooked on bliss will enjoy playing Far Cry: New Dawn from start to finish. The others will eventually get tired of psychedelic palette and recycled content.

    Far Cry New Dawn is a ridiculously well-polished and fun to play action game (AI issues aside), with an enjoyable if largely mundane story and villains. It's so hard to negatively criticise too much. It would be unfair to judge this individual game against the wider approach of Ubisoft that some could argue needs to evolve more going into the future. The freedom that this sandbox gives to just shoot things and have fun is clear to see, and on PC the world looks incredible, filled with vivid colours, rich explosions, lush grassland and shimmering blue rivers. The real question following this conclusion to the Hope County arc and all its DLC is where Ubisoft will go next with this franchise. Ultimately it is impossible to separate New Dawn from feeling like an expensive DLC for its predecessor.
