Nov 18, 2014Great game,after unity i thought that far cry 4 wasn't good,instead it surprised me a lot.longevity,graphics,story are excellent,the only bug is that this game is too similar to far cry 3 but for this time ok.Far cry 5 must innovate.
-
Nov 18, 2014Breathtaking. I'm usually not playing shooters, but this one is an exception. The famed Far Cry chaos and stunning landscapes are so incredibly addicting! I simply love every tiny bit of it.

Nov 19, 2014Way too much like far cry 3, really weak story. I wished they had changed up some things but they play most of it too safe. Maybe next year far cry, ubisoft has been a disappointment so far

Jan 23, 2015This game looks good, runs at only 30fps though. The guns sound amazing and the story is good. Gameplay is also good and weapons are crazy fun and realistic. This game could have been better in certain areas as its clear the developers have just upgraded this from far cry 3 rather than fully rework it.
-
Mar 6, 2015Felt really familiar, while the new setting was a nice change of pace to the more tropical settings in the past it lacked the freshness you'd expect from a sequel. It felt like more of the same but slightly improved in every aspect but the story which took the backseat this time around. Hard to recommend to anyone looking for a deeper experience than the last game. 7/10

Jan 1, 2015Far cry 4 is one of those games where you can take a rocket launcher, walk up to an elephant, and give the immediate are a new paint job. It has a sense of humor that can be appretiated by drug lords and violence enthusiasts. After the prologue, the game hits you on the bum and lets you do whatever the hell you want from then on. In short, it's a fun game.

Mar 16, 2015Far Cry 4 is tones of fun with great gameplay, beautiful scenery and a decent storyline. Playing Co-op with a friend makes it even better. A solid game that will give you hours of fun
-
Feb 15, 2015Essentially Far Cry 3.5... I liked the game, and enjoyed playing it, but typical far cry fare...
The Narrative paled in comparison to 3, which was quite compelling, the story in 4 was lacking in comparison...
Graphics were nice, gameplay worked no complaints... Huge map to run around and shoot things, a bit of a one trick pony, but thats far cry... -

Mar 2, 2015Tahle hra je skvěla na PS4 a doporuču ji a pokud ji mate s kým hrát tak ji jeste dejte bodík navíc.
plus skvěle se na to kouká
aspon 50 hodin zábavy a víc
skvěle se to hraje ve dvou
mínus když to nehrajete s kamošem tak to je trochu na nic -

May 24, 2015Side missions from outposts get repetitive, and AI is mediocre, but Far Cry 4 is a good game. Excellent combat, a nice selection of guns and memorable characters. Driving is bad, but main missions are entertaining and diverse. Shangri-la side content is excellent.
-
Jun 8, 2015Far Cry 4 doesn't fall far from Far cry 3. Not much innovation here besides the co-op system and a new setting. The graphics are very good, and the story is decent. Overall not a bad game to play if you're bored.
-
Aug 3, 2015VERY similar to 3... yet it can't quite capture the magic. It does make an excellent stride in the graphics department, yet fails to match 3's story and missions.

Oct 29, 2018Far Cry 4 is a good open world game, although its not as good as Far Cry 3. The story is average at best but the open world makes up for it. There are a lot of weapons and things to do in the world of Far Cry 4. Overall its a good game, I recommend it to people that don't really pay attention to narrative and are only interested in action.

Jul 6, 2019The atmosphere is incredible,the story is pretty good,details and graphics are awesome truly masterpiece!!
Play it when it is cold and cloudy to catch the atmosphere -

Nov 19, 2014Simply put this game is just a blast to play!! While the story and the characters aren't anything special, the real fun is found in just exploring the beautiful open world and just doing some crazy stuff that you can only do in a far cry game. This game will keep you busy for a long time and I am so glad it did not disappoint.

Jan 3, 2015Amazing game that will hook you in. Similar to Far cry 3 in a positive way. And to the people saying that they made it too similar to Far Cry 3, look how much time they had to design this! Stunning graphics and a beautiful game overall

Dec 31, 2014If you've never played a previous Far Cry game (as I haven't) then this is undoubtedly 10/10. I can't say how great the graphics are, and there is SO MUCH TO DO! Fantastic game.

Dec 23, 2014I shot an eagle with an RPG 10/10 .
-
Nov 19, 2014I was REALLY enjoying this game... Then I played co op. And now I am LOVING it! No story is necessary to find your own fun in this living / breathing world! Its incredible watching what naturally happens around the world. Cannot wait to get back into it.
-
Nov 19, 2014A great sequel to Farcry 3. Great graphics, sound and game play. Haven't had a dull moment in the ten hours plus I a have started playing. Only complaint I have with it is the driving takes a bit of time to get used to. But the autopilot makes up for it. Must own for all FPS fans.

Nov 28, 2014Far cry 4 provides fans with many bonus features, along with the essential breath taking graphics. Though the structuralist storytelling and some what repetitive narrating has become most noticeable as a continuous theme within the sequel. Do not fear, this is an excellent game that fans will LOVE. Best open world game of the year and one of the most enjoyable games of 2014. Well done Ubisoft!
-
Nov 19, 2014Definitely one of the better games of this year. Did not disappoint, stunning scenes, action packed, and fun, fun, fun. I recommend that you buy this game. I just wish that there was more emphasis on villains.
-
Nov 29, 2014Great game. If you like farcry 3 then no doubt you'll enjoy this game. The world is so huge, there is so much stuff to do, and tons of items to collect that you'll be playing this game for months to complete it. My only complaints about this game is the usual bugs and glitches, some of them can be annoying but not really game breaking.
-
Jan 8, 2015A direct upgrade from Far Cry 3, everything's better. The map is larger and there's much to do. It took me 20 hours to complete the campaign in single-player, and 65 hours to complete it. Definitely worth it.

Nov 18, 2014FC3 was awesome! FC4 is an amazing addition to the brand. More weapons, animals, crazy villain and really fun gameplay with the addition of the elephants and gyrocopter. It's a must!
-
Nov 18, 2014Yes! Ubisoft have played it safe. Yes! It's more of a re-hashed Far Cry 3, but what a ride....amazing. Ubisoft have stuck with what the fans like and expanded the Far Cry universe. More please.
-
Nov 19, 2014Big, bigger, Far Cry 4!
The map is so huge and you can find everywhere something to to. The machanics of the Game or not much different between the other Far Cry games, but the Story is amazing and to play togehter with a frriend, makes Far Cry 4 to best part of the Series.
Thanks Ubi! -
Nov 19, 2014Really fun and exciting game! Highly recommend it! Even if you have played the old ones or are a first timer, it truly is a great experience. I am writing extra characters
-
Nov 21, 2014This game is more like Far Cry 3.5 rather than Far Cry 4 but that doesn't mean it's a bad game. The game is great, I don't really have any problems with the game. I think the game is not quite as good as Far Cry 3 but it is close.
-
Nov 18, 2014I think far cry 4 is a nice looking game, it does not have such effects like crysis 3 or shadow fall, but this game has a nice story with impressive and huge map. so many opportunities. this is a typical far cry game. i think a bit that far cry 3 was a little batter than this.

Nov 18, 2014In a gaming market flooded with "definitive and remastered" editions, Far Cry 4 sticks to the formula of its predecessor but adds a whole new world to explore with new characters, wildlife and PvP modes. We could have gotten Far Cry 3 Remastered but instead we got something fresher, more crisp and an overall greater accomplishment than an up-scaled port of its predecessor. Job well done, Ubisoft.

Nov 21, 2014Plays just like far cry 3, which was what I was hoping for. Too many games try to add new features that take away from the gameplay. Ubisoft has a good thing going here. It's also great to play a game that works at launch.
-
Dec 1, 2014This is the most (pardon my langugage) un-f---ed Ubisoft shooter games. I still having alot of excitement in Far Cry. But seriously, It's still crucial, due to the American-Canadian evirovment was still used by Ubisoft. The shooting mechanic, was kicking, the graphics is beautiful, the game is fun, & I loved it!

Nov 27, 2014Farcry 4 is definitely amazing. Immense open world with endless possibilities. When you decide to begin your journey in Kyrat, be ready for dangerous adventure, which will give you a truly unforgettable experience, taking you from reality for many hours.
Buy it, Play it, Enjoy it. No options. -
Nov 18, 201410.10 uno delos mejores y pocos juegos hasta la fecha q si vale la pena gastar 60 dolares se lleva un diez bastante exelente y para ser un juego de disparos no se parece en nada a cod como los de ahora muy muy bueno 10
-
Nov 18, 2014Well, the game is about the same as Far Cry 3 with some new stuff. And that is the good thing! Far Cry 3 is about the best FPS game ever and you don't want it to end. So... Take Far Cry 4 and play on! I think the good thing here is that the game is the same, at least they did not ruin it like Elderscrolls Online (which could have been an Elderscrolls 6)
-
Nov 18, 2014Amazing Graphics, immersive world and atmosphere. Everything you could want from a sequel to Far Cry 3. This game is amazing! I would recommend this to anyone. Good value for your money.
-
Nov 19, 2014Great game! Runs like a charm on my PS4. I think people who liked FC3 will definitely like this game. This was really a surprise after AC unity. 10/10 would buy again.
-
Nov 18, 2014Far Cry 4 plays almost identically to its glorious predecessor, but the lack of change in gameplay mechanics doesn't stop it from being a great game. While the story is not so compelling, Kyrat is beautiful enough you will want to stay.
-
Nov 18, 2014

Nov 19, 2014Farcry 4 has been the most fun I have had in an open world game since Skyrim. PC is well optimized and runs great. I only wish it had a few more new tricks in its sleeve, but fun factor greater than innovation for this sequel at the very least.
