    Straight up amazing the story kept me entertained the whole time, its a great game if your interested in first person shooters oh and the graphics are stunning just beautiful not to mention the map editor adds a few more days of fun so I suggest you go and get yourself a copy if you don't already have one

What that means is that is a first person shooter with loads of sidequests, big open world, stealth, random events, hunting, crafting, outpost capturing, and the all pervasive tower climbs to unlock the map.

    Pros:
    -Combination of stealth and action is well done and largely up to the player.
    -Capturing outposts, though repetitive, remains fun. Scouting the enemy, planning your attack, disabling their phones so they can't call for reinforcements, and then deciding to silently kill everybody or just go ham is still as fun as it ever was.
    -The overarching story is decent and Pagan Min, the main villain, is likable. He and the radio dj are responsible for the only good dialogue in the game.

    Cons:
    -Friggin wild dogs and wolves. I can't tell you how many times I've been scouting a group of enemies only for some wild dogs to start attacking me leaving me little choice but to shoot them thereby alerting the enemy of my position and ruining all my work. ALSO EAGLES! The amount of times you are attacked by wild animals in this game is the most annoying part of the game. You can throw bait at them but this doesn't work as well as you want to especially if you are scouting an enemy and have to remain in the area.
    -Random events are so numerous that they cease to add that spark of life and spontaneity to the world and just become a nuisance.
    -The motivations of your character and the characters around you are, at times, non existent. Why do I keep going back to people who constantly drug me and leave me in dangerous situations? Why am I fighting this civil war? Why do the main characters in this fictional indian country have no accent while everybody else does? Along with a whole bunch of other minor parts where the question why comes up again.

    Conclusion: Fun game with many annoyances. None of which are game breaking but they are there. It's a great sandbox world chock-full of stuff to do but so many minor things hold it back from being on the level of red dead or a GTA game.    … Expand

While it lasted it was entertaining but the developers could learn something from The Witcher 3. What I loved about the missions in that game are that just when you thought "ah I know what this is all about" it sent you off in a completely different and unexpected direction. Having said that, it's clear that a lot of thought and effort had been put in - it was just all so run of the mill.… Expand

    Fairly similar to Far Cry 3 to be honest, but with better graphics. Both great games so that's no insult.
    I did find the Antagonist in this one was inferior to the one on Far Cry 3, just didn't seem to have much of a presence at all.
    All in all a fun game, especially when you use the bow for most of the game.... every kill is satisfying

    Far Cry 4 is a great game as it truly is pure fun. Where Far Cry 4 fails is where 3 succeeded: in its surprise. While 3's level of quality came out of nowhere, 4 just feels more of the same. That is not to say it is bad, in fact it is probably a better game than 3 as it creates a bigger, more interesting and beautiful world.

    The beauty of the world is extraordinary and more than ever    Far Cry 4 is a great game as it truly is pure fun. Where Far Cry 4 fails is where 3 succeeded: in its surprise.

That is not to say it is bad, in fact it is probably a better game than 3 as it creates a bigger, more interesting and beautiful world.

    The beauty of the world is extraordinary and more than ever the world feels alive with pop up Karma events and the sheer volume of animals roaming the land. The draw distance and processing power of the PS4 really make a big difference and the mountains in this game look outstanding. Key to this world is traversal and the game nails this. From buzzer helicopters to wingsuits and simply grappling up mountains, travelling across the map is an enjoyable experience and often a thrilling way to take in the scenery. The auto drive system introduced into the vehicles is a stroke of simple genius. Fast travel is also there when needing to get across the map quickly.

    The characters of Far Cry 4 are very hit and miss. The playable character is very forgettable and perhaps would have been better silent or radical different. Your allies within the Golden Path are very run of the mill characters. The show is stolen by the wonderful work of Troy Baker as Pagan Min, one of the most memorable villains in recent video game history. Far Cry 4 faced the almost impossible job of living up to the iconic Vaas of Far Cry 3 and some how they did it. The only downside of Pagan Min is that he could have been utilised more.

    The story is interesting but not extraordinary, it fails to reach the heights of the world and the villain but does have its moments. Where it success most is in its meaningful decisions which can shape the story and the future of Kyrat. I found myself agonising ver decisions and regretting choices which is a great sign that the choices are implemented effectively.

    The game is filled with additional activities. The variety of side quests are great and often challenging and interesting, especially the Kyrat Fashion Week activities and the racing challenges. some activities get a bit repetitive however such as the hostage scenarios. Perhaps less would have been more in ths=is case and with some other areas such as towers. Its not a Ubisoft game seemingly unless you have to climb a tower to unlock the map and 17 towers is simply too many as after 5 its just not that interesting. Furtherore the amount of drug infused 'trippy' missions ruined the effect, they were impressive stylistically through sound and vision but that effect wore off after a few times. Moreover the Shangri-La activities seemed to fill the same goal of these missions of changing up the style and gameplay. By having these activities too there was simply an over saturation of visions and trips.

    On a performance level the game is pretty faultless. the only annoyance was se failed respawns and often respawnng far away from where the death took part back to the last camp. This is a great and extremely fun game that just didn't really surprise or raise the bar enough from the previous entry.    … Expand

    The game starts off with the same cutscene that we saw in the reveal trailer. Here, i could tell that the graphics weren't exactly going to be this game's strong point. You could easily tell this was cross-gen. So the actual game starts, and it feels just like a far cry game. The way you can see the character's feet on the pedals as they drive, the way you can turn your head around to look behind you while driving. It just feels so immersive.

    The story is not too complicated. Something about a civil war between the dictator Pagan Min (voiced by troy Baker!) and the people of Kyrat. You play as Ajay Ghale who is the new martyr for the people, or something like that. The missions offer a nice variety, and are enough to keep you sticking around if you don't care for the story. My favorites include the arena mission, and some of the missions up in the Himalayas. There is a huge variety of guns to choose from, in which i enjoy a good, silenced, long range sniper rifle.

    Outside the story is is a whole lot to do. Maybe a little too much. I enjoy taking out the enemy outposts. (Once again, long range, silenced sniper rifle.) There are also hunting challenges, crafting challenges, convoys, drug trips, arena survival games, and a whole lot more. After he story i only had about 19 percent of the game done, including a few side things.

    A gripe of mine with the game is the characters. None of them are really interesting, including Ajay. Also, a good majority are really badly acted. Troy Baker is excellent as Min though. Oh, and concerning Pagan Min, he's not Vaas. I could really tell that they were trying to make a villain better and scarier, but in the end turned out like a copy. He was still entertaining though, although has a thin presence throughout the story.

    The AI is fantastic and more realistic. As random animals will chase each other or opposing sides will actually fight each other, this is even in outside the campaign. Even when you throw a rock multiple times to lure your enemy it won't go to that particular place but search the area. There is a range of dialogue of the enemies.

    Just like its predecessor, Far cry 4 offers a stunning environment and innovative villain but does absolutely nothing with them due to a sub par story.
    Far cry 4 cant seem to decide weather it was to be taken seriously, as shown in its pretty serious main quest. Or if it wants to be goofy, which is shown in its side missions having you kill endangered animals just to make a coat.

    This time around they do try and give the main NPC more personality, but the actual main character is never fully fleshed out, which left me confused and I stopped caring about the overall goal pretty early on.

    Far cry 4 seemed to lack a lot of Far cry 3s charm and survival aspect. Hunting animals and picking flowers for boosts seemed more of a chore and something which just got in the way.

    Far cry 4 is an entertaining game, with scatters of greatness along the way. On PS4 the game looks absolutely gorgeous, with incredible draw distance and overall steady frame rate.

However, NPC's and side characters at times are hilariously bad and cringe worthy. The game also suffers from some repetition in its locations and objectives, however playing a variety of different objectives and missions within a session can be a thrilling ride. Exploring Kyrat is great, but isn't done as well as Fallout or Elder scrolls games. Lacking in character and diversity. Make no mistake Far Cry 4 is a great game, with great FPS mechanics and variety of things to do. Unfortunately it falls somewhat short of being special and memorable.… Expand

    Far 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.

    Let me start off by saying that I was a big fan of the first Far Cry game. Far Cry 2 was fun amidst it's pacing problems. Far Cry 3's setting and gameplay didn't entertain me, so I never continued playing that game. As for Far Cry 4 (the little footage online I had seen), I never wanted to buy it until the Yeti's DLC intrigued me. You jump right into the action in this game.

As for Far Cry 4 (the little footage online I had seen), I never wanted to buy it until the Yeti's DLC intrigued me. You jump right into the action in this game.

    Far Cry 4's gameplay is fun and even though you do some of the same things again, it never feels repetitive and boring. I love the fictional land with breathtaking views. The quests are diverse, but the real fun begins when you start doing the main missions associated with the story. The characters are great and memorable throughout. I love the villain in this game. The opening of the game made me laugh and pumped me up for what was to come. There's not very many games that do that right. I was ready to learn more of what the land of Kyrat had to offer.

    Explosions are exhilarating and there are a plethora of weapons to choose from and unlock. The hunting is great as well. I've never been a big fan of stealth, but in this game it does require you to be stealthy at some points in the game. It doesn't take away from the overall experience and I'll condone it for now. I have never gotten a 100 percent in a game before, but this game makes me want to continue playing.

    PROS:

    - Huge and beautiful vast world to explore (The first use of my PS4's snap a pic feature) So pretty.
    - Gyrocopters and many other exciting ways to traverse the landscape.
    - The Villain is fascinating. Memorable characters
    - Fun weapons and gameplay
    - Story is intriguing
    - The Shangri-La and the Yogi and Reggie missions are great additions. They provide a change of pace and scenery.

    CONS:

    - Needs more variety in quests.
    - There's no use for the sleep feature. I haven't used it once.
    - Audio logs would have been a better and memorable use for the countless notes you come across.
    - Driving is awkward since you use the same stick for forward and reverse.
    - Would love to have different structuring in the radio towers. They all look and feel the same.    … Expand

The gameplay is very fun and gets even more fun once the player gets the wing suit which allows the player to traverse and travel the world really fast. Stealth is a very big part of this game and taking over outposts feels more awarding when stealth is used instead of gun blazing. There are also lots of vehicles to drive and as well as a day and night cycle. Hunting is also very useful in this game because you can skin the animals and use there skin to craft things like bigger wallets and gun holders. You can alsp harvest plants and use them to make syringes to heal you or let you see through tress and bushes to make hunting easier. When the player does not feel like doing the story missions, they can do side quests like murdring targets or hunting rare animals. If the player has to get to an objective but does not feel like going around the mountain, they can use the grappling hook to climb it.
    Multiplayer is also very fun and competitive. Players will have to be smart and choose what vehicles to drive or whether or not to ride an elephant to help their team. My favorite feature is the map editor which allows the player to create their own map with their own objective and upload them so other players can try them. I love to look up the highest rated map and play them. I never get bored playing other player's map.
    In conclusion , Far cry 4 is a must have for shooter fans who also like open world games but are tired of GTA V. The Map Editor and Multiplayer is like the icing on the cake for this game because the single player was more than enough for me. Buy Far Cry 4!    … Expand

    But overall FAR CRY 4 is still a great game( i have played much ,much worse!!!) has great feeling weapons,awesome graphics,excellent audio(gun sounds/feel is real good and explosions are great,etc) so i gave it a 8 and just hope that FAR CRY 5 does what it really needs to be a perfect FAR CRY game.

    My best advice is for everyone reading this to not take my word for it or anyone elses that reviews a game o but just try it yourself or do what i do and watch some high def gameplay on YT.

    Although it sticks too closely to the Far Cry 3 Formula, Far Cry 4 is a welcoming entry to the Franchise and whats missing in story it makes up for in the open world gameplay which is more breathtaking and even more fun and varied than 3 (riding Elephants is a lot more fun than you'd think) , the story and lack of originality hold it back from being great game or even as great as Far Cry 3.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Far Cry 4 is a good game, but not really any different to FC3. As has been said before it's more like FC3.5. The graphics are the same, gameplay the same, which is not a bad thing, but there is nothing really new in this to report. They have tweaked a few things like the watch towers so they are not a pain the butt, but apart from that, it's nothing exciting.
    But TBH, the worst thing I found out about this game is the story. They have obviously put a lot of effort into the story, but no matter what paths you choose to follow, you feel like a jerk. Whether it be follow the religious nutter or the drug dealer, when you choose which mission to do, both make you feel like, Actually no, I don't want any. Small hint, look for the third alternative ending, as the main 2 suck.
    The multiplayer suffers from the same problems as a lot of games that have fan built maps. It's inundated with children building stupid maps where you get infinite ammo, invulnerability and then have a mission to kill 50 blokes who are stuck in a room. 1 rocket launcher and it's done. why?? It's not fun or challenging. and this was one of the highest rated user maps!! Needs some kind of quality control. Even the official Multiplayer maps have serious problems like huge maps but only 10 players, one side who are invisible with explosive arrows. Just sit and wait for someone to turn up, pop up, shoot, dead...que a half mile run back into the action as they spawn you so far away from the main areas you spend most of the time just running. Not exactly exciting play.

Мне до выхода данной игры нравилась более всего 3 часть. Единственный недостаток которой я видел лишь в битве с боссами в галлюцинационном мире. Это раздражало немного. В данной - четвёртой части, это отчасти тоже сохранилось. Но благо лишь в одном моменте принудительно. Остальные же путешествия в мир галлюцинаций осуществляются по желанию игрока.

    Теперь ближе к делу. Карта стала больше. И заняться на ней больше чем стало - это разнообразные события (кармы), миссии компании, дополнительные миссии.
    Как всегда, экстравагантный главный злодей. Правда один он такой здесь. Остальные так себе. Но зато его с лихвой хватает.
    В целом, геймплей не изменился. Добавились некоторые нововведения. Кое-что упростили. Что только пошло на пользу. Ведь теперь не приходиться тратить доп.время или выделенную ячейку оружия на что-то стороннее.

    Сюжет как и в 3 части хороший. Но на мой взгляд, все-таки слабее. Введение моральных выборов ему добавило остроты. Игра стала интереснее в каком-то плане. Но вот мотивация ГГ не раскрыта так ярко, как в 3 части. Я бы даже сказал, она вообще не совсем понятна.
    Это то обстоятельство, которое сделало сюжет в данной части слабее третьей. В 3 части герой сначала спасал своих друзей, свою любимую. А потом, проникся чувствами и к предводительнице повстанцев. И здесь были понятны его мотивы. В четвёртой части этого нет. Ведь, по сути, по сюжету главный герой не борется за идею, он не одержим ей. Он приехал для другого. Он не проникся идеей сопротивления. Он даже толком и не понял, что происходит, пытался разобраться. Поэтому, с одной стороны сюжет стал интереснее из-за введения моральных выборов, из-за борьбы, из-за интриг, которые разворачиваются. А с другой, главный герой как бы стоит отдельно от этого. И не понятно что его мотивирует. Отсюда, не понятно его такое ярое стремление помогать именно повстанцам.
    В 3 части личные мотивы ГГ способствовали его вхождению и принятию стороны повстанцев. Они помогали ему, он им. А здесь не совсем понятно, почему он выбрал сторону именно повстанцев. Пейган Мин не показался таким отвратительным. И мне лично он импонировал больше в некоторых моментах, чем предводители повстанцев. Да и оказать помощь в исполнении миссии главного героя он также мог.
    В итоге, Аджай легко мог стать на сторону Пейгана. И на мой взгляд, необходимо было добавить именно данный выбор в начале игры.
    Введение романтической линии, могло бы разрешить проблему мотивации главного героя.

Но не сложилось.

    Звуковое сопровождение в данной части мне понравилось больше. Оно более в тему, что ли, к определённому моменту. Игра стала более эмоционально насыщенной, включая и вследствие этого.

    Подводим итог. Геймплей, музыка на высоте. Они заслуживают 10 баллов. А вот сюжет, пусть и с моральными выборами стал, но подкачал. Отдельно за сюжет поставил только 7. И именно за моральные выборы. Не будь их, оценка была бы не выше 5.

    I can't believe this got first person shooter of the year, must've been a crap year for games. The game play is very repetitive and average, the graphics are good but I prefered the atmosphere of Far Cry's 1 & 3 tropical islands. The multiplayer is good but a limited number of players.

The story was alright nothing award winning but that was not expected, a nice touch was the ability to make certain decisions in the campaign which was pretty cool, the online portion of the game can be fun at times but nothing that'll keep people up all night playing it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 2014 was an off year for gaming. Many high profile new IPs didn't live up to the hype with Watch Dogs and Titanfall disappointing with their lack of great innovation. Destiny fell short for many people as it wasn't the persistent, world building MMO imagined. Many games were dead on arrival due to their broken online components, as was the case with Driveclub and (for some people) Assassin's Creed: Unity. It's been hard to find a game of the year, with no true standout efforts like Grand Theft Auto V or The Last of Us. But Far Cry 4 is the one game of 2014 that has really stood out to me. The story is gripping, the gameplay almost perfect and the world massive and highly lifelike. It feels like a proper next gen effort and has somehow trumped the heights of the truly amazing third game.

    Far Cry has recently become famous for its twisted villains. Vaas was highly memorable and while the second foe of Far Cry 3 wasn't quite as captivating, Hoyt was still a nasty bad guy. This time we get Pagan Min- an extremely charismatic and actually kind of likeable antagonist. He was more interesting than Vaas for me and when you first meet him, he takes a selfie with your character after killing one of his guards viciously with a knife. The opening section is well designed and really sets up how truly crazy this guy can be, but he isn't insane like Vaas and is a generally better character, mostly due to the performance of Troy Baker. While Min vanishes for the few starting hours after his introduction (keeping in contact through radio), when he does show up again he hasn't lost any of his entertaining persona.

    The story is actually a little simple and removes the whole "White Savior" metaphor of FC3. You play as Ajay Ghale- a Kyrati man who returns to his fictional home country to spread the ashes of his recently deceased mother. He grew up in America, but he is still in touch with his religion and his interactions with the inhabitants of Kyrat feel realistic. After escaping Min, he meets two rebel leaders- Sabal and Amita. They have warring ideals and your path through the narrative depends on who you side with during various missions. They are always bickering and I almost wanted to jump ship and side with Pagan, but I understand that this is supposed to happen and the varying missions and different endings add a lot of replay value to the whole experience. I wish there was a New Game Plus option (or even just a New Game option that doesn't remove your old progress), but I felt like I received one of the best endings. It's a much stronger narrative than that of the previous game and this is not only due to the more intriguing characters and themes, but also due to the better mission design. I blew down a tower, used my wingsuit to fly through the Himalayas and jumped from a four wheeler to a plane in the 25 hour run time.

    While the story is great, everyone knows that you play Far Cry for the open ended exploration and the giant, beautiful worlds. Kyrat isn't much larger than the Rook Islands, but it is more detailed and the high mountains, red toned landscapes and areas of snow add a lot of variety and there are hundreds of locations that can be discovered, each holding new secrets and hidden treasures. Of course, the place is dotted with distractions, ranging from hunting and assassination side quests, to propaganda destruction missions and supply runs. The cool radio towers from FC3 also return and they're even more puzzling this time around. The outposts are still the best part of the game though and silently infiltrating a base and killing everyone without raising an alarm is tense and enjoyable for many reasons. New fortresses are also included and they're about four times the size of an easy post and are guarded by traps and snipers. There are four in total and the strategy required to bring them down is cool. If you don't want to progress through the campaign for the best odds, best pick a friend in co-op. This new feature only extends to the side activities and open world distractions, but it feels like a perfect fit for the game and can craft even more memorable moments. Best keep that Share button at the ready!

    Gameplay wise it is pretty similar to Far Cry 3 and the only real new features are a grappling hook, shooting while driving and new types of takedowns. You get the wingsuit almost at the start now as well and new driving controls take a while to get used to, but make moving combat smoother. Shooting is still the best in the business, with every gun feeling great and the levelling, crafting and money systems return but are now much easier to navigate. Grappling makes climbing mountains easier, but you can't use it everywhere. Still it looks very cool!

    Far Cry 4 also includes a big map editor, a competitive horde like arena mode and PVP that casts players across two different sides. All of this is welcome and doesn't feel crammed in, but the massive singleplayer is where it's all at. GOTY'14!    … Expand

    On the other hand, while I enjoyed FC3, and currently going through FC4 and I'm about half done, I'm already getting bored from the repetitious missions. So I'm about to mow across the game if I can, because tower liberating and animal skinning and base raiding can get tedious after the 100th time. 7 is a good score.
    But If Farcry5 is another graphics update, I won't be buying it. Good thing I bought this on a discount, because, personally I think, this game is worth no more than 30 dollars.    … Expand

    Same exact game as Far Cry 3. They just reskined the environments, animals, and all the characters. The plot of the story is uninspired and the two golden path leaders are some of the most annoying characters I've seen in a long time. The main antagonist is a phenomenal character and is one of the reasons the story is not a complete disaster.

    The side quests are generic and boring. The side missions or whatever you want to call them are boring besides the special hunting missions. Capturing radio towers and outposts is exactly the same as it was in Far Cry 3. They have added fortresses which are just giant outposts (nothing new). The arena is interesting for about 5 rounds until you realize there is no reason to continue playing it (unless you want to set high scores). My favorite thing about the game was the Shangri La missions which were a real surprise (won't spoil anything here).

    I enjoyed exploring the environments and looking for collectibles with the helicopter. I feel like the animal encounters were a little ridiculous at times. For example, on multiple occasions I have been attacked by an eagle while trying to stealthy take a outpost causing the enemy to spot me as I tried to fight off the little bastard. The random events are a nice feature but once you hit the highest karma level there is no point to doing them. I feel like the weapons are the same exact weapons as Far Cry 3.

    So in general this game is more of the same as Far Cry 3. However, I don't think the story is even close to the quality of 3 and there is little innovation in this sequel. They played it safe which is not necessarily a bad thing but I had hard time enjoying this game because I felt like I was playing a worse version of Far Cry 3 all over again.    … Expand

    Felt 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.

Hard to recommend to anyone looking for a deeper experience than the last game. 7/10

Still, the game holds up well, but sometimes it feels like there is too much to do in the massive country of Kyrat. The country itself feels alive, animals everywhere, people driving by, different towns, but some parts of the map get dull because most of the world looks the same. But the game is gorgeous.

    Essentially 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...

    Fantastic! I love riding an elephant into battle, holding my recurve bow with an explosive arrow ready to go, or throwing knives to chuck. If this had just a bit more depth to give some emotional tie to the character whose eyes you are looking out of, I'd score it 10, but it really is still a joy to play.

    The game is gorgeous, but just like the animals in this game, its just a lot of beautiful fluff covering a lot of the same garbage. The terrain is even more frustrating to explore with the huge rock faces making a 200ft distance closer to 1km to reach on the windy roads. The auto drive system (designed to drive for you so you can shoot) is about on par to the GTA 4 taxi driver (hope youThe game is gorgeous, but just like the animals in this game, its just a lot of beautiful fluff covering a lot of the same garbage.

The auto drive system (designed to drive for you so you can shoot) is about on par to the GTA 4 taxi driver (hope you like crashing into trees while shooting behind you). The actual content, characters, missions, and general feel of the game is carbon copied from Far Cry 3, and is just re-textured. I feel like I was ripped off, I think this killed the franchise for me. Oh by the way, if you liked those irritating tigers and leopards that would jump you without warning and kill you instantly? Well just wait, because the eagles with add a whole new level to cheap instant deaths.… Expand

    The same game as part 3. That's not a bad thing but it's also not a good thing. I say wait till the game of the year edition comes out to buy or go buy 3 and save some money.

    I put hours into this game and I could say I was pleased and I was ashamed. Really with a name and legacy of FAR CRY you THINK they will put some new stuff into it. NOPE, all you get is little here and there changes. But its not a bad game. The ps4 lived up to it's name by its beautiful graphics. I love the far cry franchise and I hope they stick around. But if they don't put effort intoI put hours into this game and I could say I was pleased and I was ashamed. Really with a name and legacy of FAR CRY you THINK they will put some new stuff into it.

    It is hard for me to understand the love for this game. I bought it, and went home excited. Upon starting the game, I felt as if I was playing Fc3 Dlc. This was a huge waste of money for me. I did not want to keep playing the same game
    However, I have to give it a decent score, just because it is not terrible. It is just basically a port

    A wonderful game, free to move anywhere, details above average, the feeling of freedom and at the same time of duress, under the hegemony of Pagan Min.
    A lot of things to do, beautiful landscapes, vehicles very well made, and guidance system greatly improved.
    Storyline, much better than that of the previous chapter. Hunting, liberation outposts, races and all the secondary objectives    A wonderful game, free to move anywhere, details above average, the feeling of freedom and at the same time of duress, under the hegemony of Pagan Min.

    Storyline, much better than that of the previous chapter.
    Hunting, liberation outposts, races and all the secondary objectives great fun and provide a very high total hours.
    Multiplayer very well done, but the most fascinating thing, for me, is the SHANG-RI-LA.
    Even if they had used that setting for the whole game, no one would have turned their noses. Beautiful.
    recommend this gioco..lo love and I loved it from the start.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I LOVED FAR CRY 3 AND GOT ADDICTED TO IT IT WAS SO FUN AND I PLAYES FOR HOURS PER DAY THAT I CANT COUNT . THE LAGS LISTED BELOW IS MY PERSONAL OPENION ON FC4 .

    FC4 ==> SORRY UBISOFT I DIDNT LIKE IT :(

    . IN FC3 I WAS ADDICTED TO IT THAT I PLAYED THE GAME FOR ALMOST 7 TIMES IN A ROW .

    1- STORY : IN FC3 IT WAS A NICE STORY THAT I COULD UNDERSTAND AND FOLLOW LIKE A MOVIE BUT IN FC4 THERE ARE ALOT OF BRANCHES IN THE STORY THAT I WONT UNDERSTAND OR EVEN PAY ATTENTION TO .

    2-ENEMIES : IN FC3 I WAS ENJOYING THE LANGUAGE , ACCENT , WORDS OF THE ENEMIES AND I WAS SO HAPPY WITH THE REACTIONS OF THEM WHILE MOVING .. IN FC4 YOU GET DETECTED EASILY EVEN IF YOU WERE HIDING ALSO ENEMIES ALWAYS MOVE TOWARDS YOU EVEN IF YOU WERENT DETECTED SO IT WAS ANNOYING AND I DIDNT ENJOY IT AT ALL .

    3-WORLD : IN FC3 WHILE RUNING ON FOOT YOU CAN SEE WIDE ANGLE THAN IN FC4 . ALSO WHEN AN ENEMY APPROACHES YOU FROM A DISTANCE YOU CAN SEE THEM POPPING INFRONT OF YOU AND START MOVING TOWARDS YOU . AND ACTUALLY YOU CAN HEAR THE SOUND OF THE CAR STARTING FROM FIRST GEAR ..

    4-AIMING& SHOOTING : SHOOTING NEXT TO A TREE OR A ROCK IS SOO FRUSTRATING ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU AIM REALLY NEAR THE TREE YOU HIT THE TREE INSTEAD :(

    5- SPLIT SCREEN NOT AVAILABLE ... IM GOING TO DIE !!!!!!!

    6-THE RADIO MAN IS BOOOOORING .. I MEAN .. WHO LISTENS TO THIS GUY ANYWAY ??

    7-CONTROLLING THE CAR IN CONSOLES IS SOOOO DIFICULT .

    8-THE ONLY THING THAT KEEPS ME PLAYING THE GAME IS THAT YOU CAN USE A BOW >>> BOW IS A GOOD IDEA OR ILL BE BACK PLAYING FC3

    HOPE TO SEE IMPROVEMENTS ON FC5 .. ALL THE BEST    … Expand
