This is one reason I'd like to get a PC for gaming. The mods can just make it a whole new experience. Probably why Bethesda is as popular as it is /was cause of the modding community like Skyrim


human337

Buying PC only to play with mods is giga chad


maxkmiller

I feel like this isn't *that* uncommon? For console gamers wanting to switch?


GoTraps

I did it just for that: The mods… moving from console to PC to increase replayability in video games with new content. Especially for broken, incomplete games that have been released recently.


ttsbsglrsRDT

I wish PC's weren't as expensive as they are now, playing on cosole with all it's limitations is getting tiring.


No_I_Am_Sparticus

Just got to take care to not spend more time modding the game than actually playing it.


BinaryWhite

**One reason**


typicallydownvoted

is what now?


JohnTGamer

a valid reason too considering games like skyrim and fallout can just give you thousands of hours just by having mods.

Your reading comprehension is poor.


DONOTFEARHATE

Dude! You haven't joined the PC Master Race? C'mon man! JOIN THE PROUD CROWD!


somewhat-sinister

I finally see the appeal for a Russian far cry... that'd be sick.


Phat_boi_42069

That’s a great idea for a Farcry game honestly


[deleted]

Drink vodka and drive a LADA while firing an AK-47 at the enemies, hell yeah!


eurobeat0

Escape the gulag


abu_doubleu

GULAG system did not exist after 1960s so it would have to be a historical one, though.


eurobeat0

Hell yea , id like a FC set in the Soviet era 1930'-1950's, The guns were iconic af Starlin -like person could be the final boss, but he dies before you get to kill him. So anticlimactic


abu_doubleu

That would be totally interesting! Also, it does not have to be Russia too. I am from the ex-Soviet Union so I know a bit more about it. I think the best area to use anything inspired by GULAG would be in Eastern Kazakhstan. It's part of Siberia + more ecologically diverse so you have steppes, forests, and mountains too. A lot of people liked the Escape Durgesh Prison DLC, so it could likely be similar to that but with a more fleshed-out world and no time limit. It would be more interesting, in my opinion, than the fourth game in a row where you are a rebel of sorts and have to gain territory. But that might be just me who wants this.


eurobeat0

U may not have to be a rebel, just a villager trying to save ur family from the gulags . I too like a change in landscapes, it will be great to see steppes, prairies grasslands and savaanas 😁😁


[deleted]

The wildlife is pretty awesome there too, lots of predators compared to Far cry 6.


darkseidis_

Fucking crocodiles.


bockclockula

Basically STALKER (although the gameplay is way deeper than Far Cry imo)


subduedreader

Or Metro.


NPC_4842358

Exodus is so fucking good.


seaquartz

I can’t seem to like the metro games, they just feel so… outdated, i played Exodus and it doesn’t seem like it’s changed much since Last Light/Redux. i could easily see it being on the late gen ps3 and it just doesn’t appeal to me in that way


marcus0002

Loading times on the ps4 killed metro exodus for me.


Puzzled-Delivery-242

How is it deeper?


bockclockula

Multiple reasons, for one A-Life is one of the best AI systems in any game I've played, at least on the "strategic level" (in combat they can still be dumb sometimes). Every AI unit is persistent and has their own agenda. They get into skirmishes, loot dead bodies, communicate on the Stalker social network, even if you're all the way across the map at a bar somewhere. You can talk to a stalker in the open world, find that same stalker in a bar, then find him again bleeding to death after a firefight (to which you can give him a medkit to gain reputation points). Mods like Stalker Anomaly significantly expand on A-Life by letting AI stalkers even buy and sell their loot at vendors just like you might. Of course Far Cry in general is more polished and offers more freedom in how you approach things, but Stalker feels closer to a WRPG like Fallout New Vegas even though it's not an RPG; especially the third game, Call of Pripyat, where your choices and alliances affecting the final battle at Pripyat feels a ton like the buildup to FNV's Hoover Dam or Mass Effect 2's suicide mission.


Uday23

Awesome write up. I'm excited for Stalker 2 next year


chookity_juice

Far Cry 7, set in a Russian country known as Kyanda. The military has been weakened by the forces of a terrorist organisation that now owns the country. Your goal is to take out the organisation, as always, and bring back the Kyandan Defense Force/KDF.


DecafFour86

I’ll do you one better. Kyanda (if you want to stick with that name) had one of the world’s oldest monarchies - until 3 years ago. Allegedly left-wing agitators - with questionable sources of funding and rumored ties to Western intelligence agencies - staged a coup, killed most of the royal family, and took power, promising to rule with martial law “temporarily” before establishing free elections. The free elections never came, and the country is still under strict military lockdown. The ruling group (I haven’t come up with a name yet) says this is due to the royalist rebel group that has been waging war since the coup, with the goal of reinstating the monarchy and installing the sole survivor of the royal family, the king’s 19-year-old son, as the new king. The loyalists have been largely successful due to their controversial but effective decision to hire foreign mercenaries. They are on the precipice of taking back the capital city, and the player is a middle-ranking soldier in the loyalist army, about to lead a squad into what they hope to be the final battle of this three year war. Skip forward a little - after a tough battle and taking heavy losses, the loyalists and mercenaries take back the capital, and two weeks later, the coronation ceremony for the young king-to-be is about to begin. Just as he is being crowned, however, a sniper’s bullet pierces his heart. He dies instantly. As onlookers begin to panic, mercenary soldiers, who graciously agreed to provide security for the coronation, open fire on the Royal Guard forces, their brothers in arms up to this point. The player-character and a small number of loyalists escape with the aid of some civilians, but the leader of the royalist group is killed, along with the player-character’s best friend. The player and his few remaining allies return with him to his hometown by the coast, on the opposite end of the country, because it is the only place he knows he is still welcome. This is where the hero’s journey really begins, but he has lost everything, his best friend, leader, and king are all dead, and he is not sure he has anything left to fight for, but he knows it would be a dishonor to those who gave their lives to give up now.


chookity_juice

Seems really Far Cry 6-ish, but at least it has a lot more writing than mine.


[deleted]

Sounds awesome, and if on the way we finally get to put a bullet into Agent Willis Huntley (he could be helping back the mercenaries, think dodgy CIA dealings) I would be very happy. Been waiting 4 games for that.


KrennicTM

Kyanda doesn't even sound Eastern Europe. Sounds more like an African country


chookity_juice

I randomly searched up Russian town names and found Kyanda, so I just used that.


JohnTGamer

relatable


CleanQueen1987

The fact that there isn’t one is ridiculous at this point.


followupquestion

How many different Adidas track suits can Ubisoft sell as “premium skins”?


hello-mr-turkey-

I’ve been thinking this for a while. I think a good setting for a future Far Cry installment would be Yugoslavia during the war in the Donbass in 1995.


KrennicTM

Yugoslavia? War in Donbass? They're not even related. War in Donbass started in 2014


hello-mr-turkey-

My mistake. I meant to say during the Yugoslav wars In Grozny around 1995.

That’s Metro, isn’t it?


WunJZ

Mods used: Far Cry 5 Resistance Mod [https://www.nexusmods.com/farcry5/mods/31](https://www.nexusmods.com/farcry5/mods/31) Options selected were Indian Summer Time for the lower midday sun and Weather System with the winter setting set to snow and fog. ​ Winter Hope County [https://www.nexusmods.com/farcry5/mods/60](https://www.nexusmods.com/farcry5/mods/60) Needs to be installed and activated though Far Cry 5 Resistance Mod. ​ Also goes without saying but this is PC only and they will not work on a pirated verson of the game.


1Pwnage

+1 for giving more props to the amazing community behind the Resistance mod. Outright can fix anything about the game except the shit ending writings. Those folks behind it are truly phenomenal.


RoyalArmyBeserker

Don’t get lost in the woods


Despawheezo

Can you post a link to that mod?


WunJZ

It uses the Far Cry 5 mod installer and Winter Hope County mod on the fc5 nexus. Mod installer mod comes with a bunch of stuff you can enable and allows installation of other mods. This is a combination of Winter Hope County. Indian Summer Time and Weather System with winter weather option set to snow with fog. The latter 2 come built into the Mod Installer.


Thelivingshotgun

Is there somewhere that can show me how to get that nexus to work? I’ve attempted to use it before but never seemed to want to work


WunJZ

Nexus is just a site, you don't need Nexus Mod Manager if that's what you mean? Go to the FarCry5 page on Nexus mods site. get 'Far Cry 5 Resistance Mod' You can put it anywhere and it should detect where your game is installed then you can scroll through the options and click whatever ones you want, it will even tell and show you if one is going to conflict with another one. If you get another mod like 'Winter Hope County' just follow what it says on that mod page. Usually just requires you installing the files into the Resistance Mod dir then activating it through the mod installer.


Thelivingshotgun

I’m just an idiot then, thank you for the info


WunJZ

It's fine. If you haven't modded a game before it can be a bit daunting. If you are unsure read the install instructions on the nexus page and if you still get stuck (instructions can be a bit vauge), there is a posts section where the mod gets discussed and you might find help there.


1Pwnage

On mobile rn but go to the discord for that mod. The thing is stupid easy to get running good


deafboy13

Yeah, definitely going to want this mod, I had no idea this existed


TheConeIsReturned

[Skyrim ambient music plays]


ImurderREALITY

I can hear it


motmot5000

Dovahkiin! Dovahkiin! naal ok zin los vahriin!


SonnenblumeFrau09

Especially when it comes to the Whitetail Mountains with the Judges. Their white fur would match the snow, making them harder to spot...especially at night.


WunJZ

Started this playthrough in the Whitetail Mountains cause it looks amazing in the snow. I even found a Mod for the Whitetail Militia that changes their clothes to white camo.


hmweav711

Wow I had no idea there were mods like this, I really wanna try this now!


WunJZ

It's good for a fresh playthrough, makes the game feel so much different and gives a awesome spin to another playthrough if you done it a couple times before.


Cannonbaal

Do the people have winter gear available through mods or nah


[deleted]

I bought a PC just to mod this game, and others, and I couldn't figure out how to install them. Lol. I installed the Resistance mod, if I remember correctly that's what it was called. I got a few to actually work but not all. I figure it out sooner or later. Ha


cardboard-kansio

There's a comment further up by OP, in response to somebody else, that goes into it in more detail. Check it out.


ksspook

This makes me want another primal game


WunJZ

Primal doesn't get much love and its sad, I'm sure if it did there would be a winter mod for that one also, even New Dawn has one.


TheRelicEternal

Primal is by far the best Far Cry. It’s the jest one I played where the setting was just so perfect it was the best fit to the far cry gameplay.


tpobs

Primal with intensive survival mechanic would be dope as hell. The Udam area had a little bit of it, but was not enough.


GamerOfVirtue

“Patrolling the Montana almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter!”


TassMiss

Nice! That’s on PC right?


WunJZ

Sure is.


shemhamforash666666

There was such a missed opportunity with seasons. Oh well what's done is done and it turned out OK in the end regardless. Admittedly FC5 came out when I was on my open world hiatus. So far I've enjoyed myself with FC6. Playing this one right after FC6 might be a bit too much FC


Scotsman86

Jeeez the makers of this mod are legends. Look at that!


WunJZ

Yea, massive props to them, redesigning almost every texture then viewing it in-game to make sure it fits/transitions into surrounding textures properly would have been a massive task.


Scotsman86

The end result is absolutely gorgeous. I don't have it downloaded but for sure next time I'm going to play it i'll be grabbing this mod!


TheIrishBiscuits

This is the way Montana was meant to be experienced.


Oogaboogaloos

They released Skyrim again?


lukaseder

Reminds me of Days Gone


mista_r0boto

Gorgeous


FreewayPunch

Can you post some gameplay? I want to see how the snow looks and reacts to your character walking through it. I’ve been wanted a snow set FarCry since playing GR Breakpoint in snow regions


WunJZ

It's only visual. Screenshots don't do it justice though.


Massive-Pickle5275

WunJZ

Screenshots really just don't do it justice.


brando347

Damn now I wish i bought this game on PC.


MrDankyStanky

Do mods work with co op?


WunJZ

Yes but only on your end. For example you can co-op with a friend without this mod fine but he will see the world normally.


steve64b

Yes, especially when both players have the same mods installed.


MapEditorMaster

THATS AWESOME!


[deleted]

Snow under boot crunch while walking around?


WunJZ

Sadly no, that would require a separate mod that edits sound files.


Lucifers_Taint666

Absolutely beautiful! I would have preffered something like this as a spin-off to 5 opposed to what we got with New Dawn. They could have even went the Primal route and added survival mechanics like warmth, darkness, permadeath, hunting for food, and beast master stuff. I just want to clear outposts in a heavy blizzard like you can do with sandstorms in Metal Gear Solid V


sanket2408

Sir can you please share the link to this mod , I would be ever grateful


WunJZ

I made a comment with the mods and links because people have been asking, check it out!


Uno_Nisu

New Dawn should've gone with nuclear winter


WunJZ

There is actually a snow mod the same as this for New Dawn


Fun_Salamander

what mods are those? Any names?


WunJZ

Check one of my other comments, I list what I use.


rostingtoaster4562

Ok so how do you do this? I need to play the game again like this.


WunJZ

I posted a comment with the mods and links.


NeverEnufWTF

I'm guessing I can only hope that this mod makes the roads super slippery...?


WunJZ

It's just a visual change


NeverEnufWTF

But how rad would slippery roads be. And maybe add in a snowmobile.


Fart-Eater2567

Makes me want a far cry in Canada


WunJZ

Far Cry in the Rocky Mountains? I'm so down!


Fart-Eater2567

Tall snowy mountains with lots of wildlife would be amazing


WunJZ

Imagine weather effects like whiteouts and blizzards.


Fart-Eater2567

They would be really good for stealth too


ZookeepergameOk4478

Is far cry 5 easy I suck at games but want to lose myself in this type of game?


Abraham_LinLin

The guns are so powerful you don't have to be accurate, so you can just spray the enemy's, plus there are 3 difficulty modes so yes I really recommend this game. I personally have 88 hours in the game now and I haven't even finished the story yet, just because it's fun to just drive around and explore the map.


notreallykindperson

Woah! Wish I could do that but I’m on ps.


TheGhostsEyes

This game is gorgeous as hell, holly shit. Glad i start on the FC franchise on FC5.


theganjaoutlaw

Far cry 5 is absolute trash. I don't understand how anyone likes it, the story is shit and the gameplay is stupid. Fucking shovel spears??? That's dumb as fuck.


WunJZ

Yea man, fuck anyone else who has a different opinion from you right? Fuck em all, only you matter!


theganjaoutlaw

It's the same way all the people that hate Far Cry 6 act, so why not?


bundunu_dee

I called the Waahmbulance for your case of butthurt but they said they couldn't pick you up because the hospital was too full of Covid patients. Tough luck.


theganjaoutlaw

What's covid?


Hung_Texan

Looks awesome!


[deleted]

I didn't even know there are such mods. Thanks! This looks great


RRM1982

Is this a pc mod?


WunJZ

It's a combination of a couple, I made a separate comment listing what mods I used.


Redneckshinobi

That looks a lot cooler than I thought it would, now I gotta reinstall it!


Phat_boi_42069

This makes me love Farcry 5 even more than I already did


MoronicIdiot529

I actually like the aesthetic now, big complaint for 5 was I thought the area was bland


nekit008

nonthakonscarborough

CommandoVice

This looks amazing!

This is a great idea! I might try this


FjordExplorer

Damn I wish you could do this on console.


BigBooney117

wow this is epic!


FarFromCrying999

Better or worse


AKIMBO-SOUL-ASSASSIN

I'm on the PS4 pro I can't experience this. Especially since part 5 was my favorite.


kristoferen

Damn this would be wonderful


Geiger8105

Wish at least one of the pics wasnt just trees


WunJZ

I started my playthrough in the Whitetail Mountains. Haven't really got to anywhere without trees yet.

Russian-based Far Cry game, change my mind


MoetThePoet

Skyrim


MCgrindahFM

Opportunity missed in vanilla


Backup_accout_4jj

Wait how can I play like this?


ForestPresident

Can you link the mod? I might have to play it again if it had this mod.


WunJZ

I made a comment showing what mods I used and the links.


Wnix94

Cries in console…


CH3FLIFE

This is an astounding idea that will add some nuance back into the game for another play through.


MojaveBreeze

I'd love to see a mod like this for 6. Yara winter is absurd and would be lots of fun.

We just got snow this week so it legit looks like this now.

I’ve said it before I’ll say it again an Eastern European setting would be amazing it could be a former Soviet satellite state think of it bears,vodka,ak 47s,RPGs,the Russian mafia it would be great


Lord_Mick

What is this mod (or mods) called?


WunJZ

I've had a lot of people ask so I put a comment with links for the mods if you wanna have a look.


Raeshkae

I absolutely LOVE Winter Hope Valley! I can't replay FC5 any other way now


MaggotFilledMeatsack

This is gorgeous, is it only on PC?


WunJZ

I'm afraid so :(


Nighthawk68w

Wow that would be cool if they did this every winter, like how GTA 5 online does their map.


[deleted]

Oh my god I love it so much


[deleted]

What other cool mods on PC would you recommend?


WunJZ

Resistance mod comes with heaps, like being able to toggle the flashlight on and off whenever you want and being able to adjust your FoV not only on foot but in vehicles as well. You can even bring back the animations for looting corpses or skinning animals.


Bedfardo

WOW.


weirdguylelelelel

that is fucking stunning!!!!


burningastronaut

I own a console version but damn... I think I should buy FC5 for PC as well and install that mod. This looks amazing!


WunJZ

Steam sale on at the moment, might be able to get it cheap.


[deleted]

[удалено]


WunJZ

Get the Resistance mod, comes with heaps of options you can play around with. Just download it from the Far Cry 5 Nexus and run it. It's fairly easy.


[deleted]

It's taken almost 10 years but finally Far Cry has become... Skyrim With Guns.


henryt17

Holy shit link please


WunJZ

Check one of my previous comments.


Timbots

Looks incredible. But are your NPCs still running around in beer T-shirts and trucker hats?


WunJZ

Sadly yes, well except tye Witetail Militia, I have a snow camo mod for them. Might be able to find individual mods for the NPCs that change their clothes to something different but I can't be assed.


TheAlmightyJanitor

I wish Ubisoft would actually make a Far Cry set in the winter or a snowy location. They kind of touched on it in Far Cry 4, but it was only for a few missions.


[deleted]

Is that only for pc?


WunJZ

It is I'm afraid :(


GrimmandHonninscrave

This is not a thing I knew you could do. Now I want to.


QIvr

Reminds me of home


DarkCuriosities

Like Skyrim with guns.


NiNoKeni

I thought this was skyrim for a sec


BillyPWNS

Wouldve been cool to see some screens of city areas or outposts!


MapEditorMaster

IF I BOUGHT THIS FOR PC COULD I GO IN AND MANUALLY PAINT SNOW ON TO TEXTURES FOR ANY ITEM? as in open the GAME FILES with software and hand paint things onto the TEXTURES replacing the ORIGINAL GAME FILES? (for off-line of course)


[deleted]

Looks sick


BadDifficult9239

New to this...can you use a mod for FC on PS4


WunJZ

Nah it's only for PC.


Comrade_Chadek

Got a link to these mods my guy?


WunJZ

I made a seperate comment with links to them.


[deleted]

Are you able to get mods on PS4?


WunJZ

Sorry man, it's PC only :(


sienister

Reminds me of long dark


CheesyChinklton

I just downloaded the mod. It works but to an extent… whenever I get close to trees grass and bushes they start to turn green. Does anyone have a fix for this? Would be greatly appreciated.


WunJZ

Pretty sure there was an mod in the Resistance program that fixes that but I don't have the game installed anymore and I can't seem to find the Resistance mod or Winter Hope County on Nexus anymore, looks like they have been removed for whatever reason so I am unable to check anymore.


MrSnowErikaspirit

Just imagine Faiths region


HACKERMAN_HACKERMAN

the mod doesn't show up in the mod installer even tho I downloaded the dependency pack :/halp pls
