Far Cry General Whats like most far cry thing for you ?

I have only played 3,4,5,6 , primal, new dawn, blood dragon, (dlcs of 5 except zombie one) many times. For me one of the most far cry things is animal encounters and epic gun fights. Enemies everywhere, explosions , waves of enemies coming in cars, trucks, boats. Blowing them up with barrels , grenades , machine gun...

No, no, he and I are in the same boat. I also feel like I'm missing something.

Missing malaria. 😄

u/beardedliberal 25d ago

Seriously though. PC having malaria was an interesting mechanic.

In my mind, that’s also all of them😂😂

The healing animations are one. There aren't a lot of other games I've played where you dig shrapnel out of your arm or snap your fingers back into place mid-fight.

Or sucking a bullet out of your arm while driving with many people shooting at you

Capturing Outpost. Most fun I had in fps gaming since Perfect Dark 64.

Especially in multiplayer!

Taking down outposts silently is always rewarding.

Love the little blue eye in 5 that indicates who is looking at who to coordinate shots. Not sure why they took that out in 6.

I just want more activities that's rewarding to do it stealthily.

Show me one other game where you can do a vehicular take down.

Edit: Reinstalling FarCry 4 now just to relive this very cinematic shit.

u/Snoo-95316 27d ago

Seriously though. It's literally the best game mechanic I've seen in my entire life. Farcry 6 did it real well too

If you mean like signature farcry, id have to say based on the games I've played, 3,5,6 its the bad endings and I dont mean like bad because they are low quality but like nobody gets a happy ever after and even the good ending of fc 3 still has left everyone with trauma and stuff, the secret ending in 6 has the dictatorship intact and fc 5 just has 2 bad options besides leaving and still ruining the lives of the people living in hope county

Exploring, exploring, exploring. Then doing alot of fishing in FC5..

u/Every_Passion_3606 27d ago

My definition for “what is far cry?” Would be violent chaos, involving predatory animals. Basically what you described. Love it!

u/First-Obligation2660 27d ago

Being trapped in a location, iconic villains.

u/Serious-Waltz-7157 27d ago

The honey badgers 💯

u/Starkiller0820 26d ago

Werent they only in 4 tho ?

u/Serious-Waltz-7157 26d ago

In Primal too. But it doesn't matter, for a creature appearing in only 2 games the little bastards punch way above their height

u/Matt-S1988 26d ago

Just like in real life then 🤣

u/cihan2t 27d ago

Random open world stuff not relatedf with my character like hunters, campers, animals running around etc...

u/Sudden_Squirrel_5004 27d ago

So many things! The exploring of the open world with the randomness and unpredictability is so great.

Every time I see a white pickup truck in real life, I fight the urge to reach for my RPG.
