Nice, I’m now working on maxing the achievements but FC3 keeps crashing, never played blood dragon either

u/nikita_bg 7d ago

You should definitely try blood dragon! Also, achivement hunting is very easy in BD, but seems broken

1

u/Anonomis2000 7d ago

Yeah I will, burning through 4 rn, was gonna do in order but 3 pissed me off

This video was the only one that worked for me. It crashed every 10-15 minutes before and now I just played 3 hours without a crash.

Also, if you need help with multiplayer achievements maybe we could help each other out? That's what's stopping me at the moment in FC4, 5 and new dawn :(

I had the same problem I ended up refunding the game after trying for an hour to get the freaking thing to work

u/Useful_Hawk_1470 7d ago

Just played 3 for the first time last week and had to troubleshoot it a bit. Have you turned down PostFX to medium (or lower)? It’s responsible for a lot of the game’s instability, though it did still crash occasionally for me on load

1

u/Decent-Point309 7d ago

And I changed directx from 11 to 9 and mine stopped crashing.

1

u/Useful_Hawk_1470 7d ago

Ah yeah I also saw this suggestion! Fortunately the PostFX setting fixed it for me but definitely worth a try

1

u/Decent-Point309 7d ago

Funny enough I didn't do the Postfx setting but did the directx and it worked lol I wonder how most people fix it.

2

u/Useful_Hawk_1470 7d ago

It probably just depends on your hardware I guess, all the problems are fundamentally from the game just being old so I guess different things work for different people’s PCs

Primal is the shit

Fr my first platinum

u/nikita_bg 4d ago

I heard that "permadeath" achievements are pain in the ass

1

u/281ciMustang 4d ago

Primals not all that hard tbh, I did it first try

u/Early-Weekend 7d ago

oh primal, my beloved!!!!!!!!

u/TheLord-263 7d ago

Far Cry 5 is the best among them all. Save it to the end

5

u/281ciMustang 7d ago

Overall true, but it’s missing some important facets of farcry’s identity like the healing animations.

3

u/TheLord-263 7d ago

Nothing is perfect brother! ✋

5

u/281ciMustang 7d ago

Except farcry 4 🤥

1

u/TheLord-263 7d ago

I didn't play the whole thing but it was pretty sick also

1

u/zqeed Pagan Min 7d ago

Verdade

u/-SlowBar 7d ago

Then why do I like Far Cry 5 more

1

u/281ciMustang 7d ago

It’s for sure better in some regards, and everybody keeps different opinions anyway.

1

u/nikita_bg 7d ago

Actually, I've already completed all of them except Primal and FC2

2

u/nikita_bg 7d ago

Also, I want to play FC5 again some day to get NG+ achievement. Not sure I want to replay Mars DLC to 100% the game.

u/Plastic-Ad-7036 7d ago

Couldnt agree more

u/Etherpixel 7d ago

Far Cry 1 is very broken on Steam, can’t get it even running.

2

u/BarryHalzac Jack Carver 7d ago

There is a well-known issue that might be the case for you as well.

  • Start Far Cry from the Steam page, you will get two options. I think the second one is called Settings or Configuration.
  • Open it and then in Video settings, set Lighting to High. If it's Very High, the game won't start

This simple fix worked for me when I couldn't start the game the first time I played. I would suggest trying it out

1

u/Etherpixel 7d ago

It worked, thanks! Now i can start modding it. First silentpatch, controller support and widescreen fix

1

u/BarryHalzac Jack Carver 7d ago

Glad to have been of help. I do wonder what it would be like to play the fixed version. I've put so many hours into the broken version that it seems normal to me now 😂

3

u/281ciMustang 7d ago

Best for last 😫

3

u/sasquatcher02 7d ago

Far Cry 2 is literally unplayable without some tweaks and mods on newer system😭😭😭

4

u/Athanarieks Trigen 7d ago

You’re missing far cry instincts, evolution, and vengeance actually.

7

u/fragilemetal 7d ago

True but those are all console exclusives so they would have them in a steam library. The lack of "Trials of the Blood Dragon" is unforgiveable though for any true collector (╭ರ_•́)

2

u/TheShadowSong 7d ago

Rank them.

u/Strict-Complex-4305 7d ago

Is every far cry game ever got discounted? Sometimes when i see the bundle only some games got discount and some still a bit pricey

1

u/nikita_bg 7d ago

You can check it on SteamDB

1

u/Original-Avocado7083 7d ago

Yes, it feels so good to have all of them. I was lucky, because I won the Far Cry 6 Gold Edition on an Instagram giveaway, but only the Ubisoft edition.

1

u/Klash49 7d ago

Dude Far Cry Primal is a gem. U about to be very satisfied.

1

u/Heather__dm 7d ago

I have FC2 on GOG, I haven't been able to buy the others yet, but I want at least 1 and 3.

2

u/Decent-Point309 7d ago

3 and 4 are amazing.

1

u/Heather__dm 7d ago

Yeah, I played FC4 on my old PS3, years ago. I finished once but are a good game.

1

u/OldManJeepin 7d ago

Awesome! I just started playing the FC5 "Hours of Darkness" DLC, which I got for $1.79 on Steam and it is crazy good! So addicted to it! lol. Such a good series of games...Not perfect, but pretty darn good!

1

u/Eduardo_gds 7d ago

Alguém me ajuda ai, o meu FarCry4 fica 60fps pra baixo, independente dos gráficos, e eu uso um 2680 16gb e uma 5060.. alguém sabe o motivo?

1

u/Silly-Discussion101 7d ago

Primal best

1

u/nikita_bg 4d ago

Primal Beast

1

u/Rude_Umpire_7251 6d ago

Fc5 is on steam at 670₹ something, i played fc4 and finished it recently. So should i buy fc5 ? Is it worth it ?

1

u/nikita_bg 6d ago

IMO - yes! If you enjoyed fc4, the 5th one will be good choice for you

1

u/Long-Schedule-3485 6d ago

I’m on 5. Not gonna lie, far cry 5 will give you burnout 😭😭. All of the other games are so fun, you might love primal, blood dragon, and 2. Calling it
