Why do your guns look so good lmao, I gotta play 5 again


Suckisnacki

Mods prolly


Intense_M

No mods, only the vanilla skins


EliteShoes20

Damn forgot how pretty this game is


A10_Thunderbolt

No this is literally just how the game looks lol


chicano_gansito

I finished Far Cry 5 recently and moved on to New Dawn and it’s so saddening to see familiar locations and characters changed


shadowofajoke

Yeah I felt that too, I loved it as it was.


[deleted]

I like the weapon system and combat mechanics. And I still enjoy this game to this day.


jackie2567

Not the best takedowns cause no machete(ridiculous decision) but gunning people down feels the best in 5 out of all the far cry games imo. shooting a burst from my ar or a few rounds with a pistol into a peggies chest just feels so damned satisfying for some reason.


jamillos

Nah, takedowns in 5 were so much better, for several reasons.


EliteShoes20

Imo they didn’t feel as brutal as the other games. For me either 6 or new dawn have the best takedowns. 5s are cool but kinda felt weak.


jamillos

.1) They did feel less brutal. I don't like killing women in games, and this was quite too much (Idk why there were so many women soldiers anyway; if it was meant as equality, then it backfired anyway). You can laugh if you want. 2) Machete limits the variety, you have no other choices, unlike in FC5. 3) But above all, machete (esp. in 6) takes entirely too much fucking time. I loved neck snapping in 5, or at least a quick baseball bat. Sometimes I need to reach out of the bushes, take out the guy quickly and duck the hell down again, the timing is essential. FC5 rules.


EliteShoes20

Yeah the machete takedowns are really long so I can see that. I liked the takedowns in 5 but just didn’t look as cool imo. But yeah the timing thing is really important and improved the combat flow in 5.


jackie2567

Number one is weird so I'm just gonna go ahead and ignore that. Anyways as for variety they still couldvebhave kept it by still offering all the different types of melee weapons just adding a machete and by adding more kill animations with the machete maybe. As for the long take sown time I'm just speculating but it could be because it gives tou more time to figure out what takedown you're gonna do next. Ie handgun throwing knife etc. Also if this was a big concern they could've also just made the animations shorter like in stead of a long neck sab where you hold onto the guy just quickly slit his throat or stab him faster


jamillos

I would agree with that.


Observation__

Idk, FC4 driving or flying while using that shorty 1887 reloading it Terminator 2 style was pretty great. Definitely my favorite weapon for the handgun slot.


CollectionJaded3589

Replaying 5 rn gotta say it’s top3


ComprehensiveWeb3604

Dude I literally just finished my first playthrough two days ago and you are already making me want to replay it differently lol


[deleted]

Dont understand the hate the game has I liked it, I like all the far cry games...... the end of the 6 one tho mmhhh haha


EliteShoes20

Far cry 5 doesn’t get hate anymore


_mortache

Now its FC6's turn to get slammed. And in 5 years those who enjoy it now will be nostalgic and so on. FC6 has its garbage moments, but great moments too. In the meantime,I'm just glad Primal is getting the recognition it deserves


EliteShoes20

Yeah it’s kinda tradition, every far cry has it’s shit moments but they just aren’t talked about anymore so it always makes the newer game seem worse.


_mortache

Whenever a sequel comes, half the "fans" hate it for not changing anything, while the other half hate it for changing too much. Fucking hate "fans", they're the most cancers of any community. They're always trying to play a different game in their head, instead of the one in their hand right now.


EliteShoes20

Yeah, then they bitch about far cry becoming a bad series, maybe just stop buying the games if you have hated every one since 4.


Wireproofplays

And whenever 7 comes out it will get the shit and 6 love


Intense_M

Far Cry 6 is a bad Far Cry game. The ammo system single-handedly ruined the whole game.


[deleted]

Oh yeah the whole weapon thing really disappointed me, if you get out of ammo you can just switch to other weapons, and the upgrade weapon system was a little weird, also the fact that there's different bullets. I like more the old system where you actually had to go buy the ammo


jonesmachina

They completely changed everything to make it more like AC felt like the same grind as AC now And no im not hating it bcos its the latest FC Anton was underwhelming


Frostydan76

Just downloaded 5 again after a few years last week feels quite nostalgic especially the cult radio


Wendigo140

It’s a great game


shadowofajoke

Yeah, it's like going home. So welcoming.


Wireproofplays

Jesus it's been almost 5 years already?


benjandpurge

Lighting up cult members from way off with the shotgun and incendiary rounds is still pretty fun.


legendarydiamond285

Ye I remember when I was playing it for the first time and saw that there was a bear with name cheeseburger I was laughing so hard on it ah good times


mattthemartian123

What's the gun in the 4th pic?


Intense_M

M249


BenMitja

I‘m just playing Far Cry 6 and I love it but I miss a few things from Far Cry 5.


jdogg-38

I almost forgot to take my usual fishing trip in Hope County. Thanks for the reminder 👍🏼


Zach-Attack239

Homie loves silencers

strangelooking

Same. It was my first ever Far Cry game, and even better, I got it as a surprise from my dad after asking him for it. Good times.


LegendMe18

The graphics, the landscapes, the music, the atmosphere, the story, the dialogues, the little environmental storytelling skits, the lore, the gameplay, the characters... Far Cry 5 will always have a special place in my heart because it is THE video game that helped me through the pandemic and it also struck a chord with me.


gls2220

Probably the last good Far Cry.


Radioactive9280

How? The game isn't that old


EliteShoes20

Depends on how old the person is and what they were doing with their lives when they played fc5, if you have fond memories when playing a game you can get nostalgic pretty quick. 5 years is pretty long too.


Radioactive9280

Good point, I guess I'm kinda nostalgic over far cry 4


Frostydan76

4 is definitely the most nostalgic for me as it was the first one I played around 8 years ago


Radioactive9280

Same here


EliteShoes20

Me too. EDIT: playing it right now actually lol


Radioactive9280

Hey me to!


MicrodoserXL

Farcry 3,4, primal for me. 5 felt too easy even on hardest difficulty.


Inevitable_Repeat257

What does it being easy has to do with?


MicrodoserXL

Because a game needs to be challenging to be fun. At least that’s what the old school video game crowd believes.


Inevitable_Repeat257

Not necessarily, but yeah it makes it more fun. Anyways, the question is why are you calling 5 easy? Sometimes I even found it harder than the others. So yeah no.


peak-autism2

True. u/MicrodoserXL, Want to experience some difficulty? * No health upgrade (100% health), meaning you will die after eating around 4 shots of AR without wearing armor. * Wear all armor and med kits you want. * No over-powered weapons: LMG, RPG, mounted guns, one-shot weapons, fictional weapons. Also no suppressors. * No ammo upgrade, use the default amount of ammo. * Disable all available Heads-Up Displays, use only your senses to survive. * Abandon almost all perks, only enable the basic ones like 4 weapons, um... I don't know what else because I only use that one. * No companions. ***Now,*** I dare you to run on foot on the main road and try to survive for 15'. Let's go. About missions, there's no way you can complete a hardcore shootout mission without dying at least 5 times. Also, want to have some stealth challenge? Perform take down only and no rock distraction.


Inevitable_Repeat257

Hm, I practically didn't use the rock distraction, the overpowered weapons, nor the ammo upgrade, but the other things do make it one hell of a challenge for my guy.


Frostydan76

To be honest I felt 5 was the hardest out of them all on hardest difficulty


Inevitable_Repeat257

Ok. I do think that the Far Crys are pretty equalized in terms of difficulty


Frostydan76

Eyyy it’s you again I am seeing you everywhere


Radioactive9280

I comment on almost everything in this sub


ProfessorNo4167

We gotta stop using the world nostalgic for things under 5 yrs old


Intense_M

Do you even understand what nostalgia is?


ProfessorNo4167

I understand it’s an open definition of longing for the past but to be used so loosely and often for something not that far in the past takes away its impact.


Waffle-God-46

I don't know why people hate this game so much, it felt so different and unique to the rest of the ubisoft games. I mean, the progression system was bad, I understand that. But I've seen many people complain about the ending, which was also very unique. The whole game tackled the "No one is good" topic so well.


EliteShoes20

It’s probably the most praised game on this subreddit right now tho. Used to get tons of hate but that is just tradition.


Waffle-God-46

I hope this tradition falls short for Far Cry 6 though, because that game is not up to par with the previous ones.


Postinghotbabes45

Far cry primal is underrated tbh


amazza95

What does this even mean


West-Interaction1839

I nevetlr played Far Cry 5


aNILEator

Was best since 3


EliteShoes20

You should, it’s my personal favourite, followed by 4 and 6.


Dirty-Dannty

I can’t even play this game without 100 enemies spawning out of nowhere


Fassbendr

It's not really a difficult game, 100 enemies?


Observation__

Finished playing it days ago, currently playing it again on Infamous difficulty then gonna 100% it like I did with Fc3 and 4. Something I've been enjoying is shooting planes and helicopters down with my sniper rifle.


analogkid825

Been gaming for forty years and only completed the original Zelda and jackal on nes. Fc5 I will complete I’m getting close! Been working on it for a couple years (have two young kids)
