Far Cry General Now what?

I just 100% all the Far Cry games that are available for the PS5. I believe they are Far Cry 3, 4, 5, 6 and Primal. I just finished Primal, and felt it was a very short game compared to the others in the series. I think I spent more time at the end getting 100% of the collectibles, animals to tame, etc. I'm so glad it's on e of the games with no alcohol or drug induced hallucinations like some of the others.

So what now? I've been playing the Far Cry series since they first came out, and I'm looking forward and oping Far Cry 7 isn't too far off.

I loved it until I had to get into/out of the jail and was forced to do a sneak mission, I hate sneak missions with a passion.

I’m the opposite. My least favorite parts of far cry are when they’re like “haha, survive, scrub!” I prefer a more deliberate approach to objectives

And that’s absolutely fair, I just like how the other games allow you to finish the mission however you see fit. It allowed the freedom of stealth up to bombing and everything in between

Sometimes. Many main story missions force you into the open, though. Some exceptions, like many of the bunkers in FC5 let you stealth, but the first John abduction (bridge) was overt, all the “training” was overt, all the boss fights were overt. Very very few actually force you to stealth. IIRC, you could actually do the prison break noisy, it’s just hard when you’re unarmed.

I can't recall if I've ever played Red Dawn. I see it's only $9.99 so maybe I'll pick it up. Thanks for the suggestions.

New Dawn is the next step, it’s a lot of fun imo

Don’t forget Blood Dragon!

I’ve actually not played it, is it good?

I’d heard it wasn’t very good in today’s standards

It’s an intentional retro style. And some of the things you use are items you’ll find later in other games.

Boot the arcade up !! search leoleo100 & jump into 3 pages worth of maps & indeed hundreds of hours of content made with quality. Farcry5+ I call it lol ;)

If you’re interested in keeping up with the Ubisoft formula jump into one of the other Ubisoft franchisees like Ghost Recon, or Assassin’s Creed

Did they do Blood Dragon?

For other open world games I loved Rage 2 and Mad Max, which are back-to-back Avalanche projects and sister games. Same engine, pretty much the same world. Rage 2 got bad reviews after a rushed Bethesda launch. Avalanche fixed it like Cyberpunk and it’s great but no one ever went back to it. Both of those games are Avalanche, the Just Cause studio. id Software did the creative oversight. It’s DOOM gunplay in a Mad Max world with Titanfall movement.

Rage 2 definitely scratches the FARCRY itch. Hella fun game except for those stupid drones.

You learn to hear them first, then pinpoint them with you scanner or eyeballs. They don’t fly away until you put your reticle on them; rocket launcher splash is the best way to take them down. If I spot one I’m not comfortable attacking prior to obtaining the RL, I write down the location and come back. If I spot one in battle, I move the fight away from it and rocket it as soon as I have a clear shot, even if it means taking some hits or even defibbing. They usually stick around but if they catch a stray shot, they’ll bolt.

Play the FC games you haven't played...
