I guess he means game because I don't think that price has been revealed. :p

Well I don't know why any one would call it cheap. It looked real nice to me. Yes that villain character was not that good and heck he looked like a gay or girl to me even his voice don't have that villain punch but gameplay and graphics look good to me.

*facepalm*
He meant the game was cheap. nothing about the price. lol.

I wont say its cheap, but ubisoft hasnt even got a trailer and directly jumped into the gameplay videos. :|
Some people might not like it, probably coz of all that gaga over BF3 and MW3(burp)..but it actually looks interesting.

Farcry 1 was epic in becoz it was made by crytek not ubisoft .. plus it that mind blowing AI and graphics back then.and was rate no1 everyone in FPS .. Far cry 2 which was a epic epic fail all due to its repetive nature and had stupid AI and useless roaming world... .i really dont think till will stand any chance aganist other FPS title like BF3 or COD MW3....

Who the hell says that Far Cry 2 was epic fail dude. That was a good success IMO. Most gamers loved that game. Yes that was not as successful as Far Cry but hey that happens to many series look at Crysis 2 for god sake. What do you think Crysis 2 was a epic successor of Crysis 1 or warhead???? Far Cry 2 was never a fail it was a very good game with some glitches which sometimes irritated gamers.

so you want to say, Ubisoft games = FLOP? you judge games looking at who is the damn developer?

Far cry 2 which was a epic epic fail all due to its repetive nature and had stupid AI and useless roaming world... .i really dont think till will stand any chance aganist other FPS title like BF3 or COD MW3....

repetitive nature = yes. it is an open world game & with the constant African patrols it feels a bit repetitive. but then there is the free bus service.

Stupid AI? where? i found the AI to be really good even at medium difficulty. yes sometimes they fail to spot you even if you are standing infront of them. but like Crysis they try to flank you & ambush you.

BF3 = multiplayer mainly.
MW3 = linear. short. most probably no side missions.

can't compare FarCry2 with these games.

What do you think Crysis 2 was a epic successor of Crysis 1 or warhead????

was going to tell exactly that.

My only complaint with the game was the re-spawning of scouts at checkpoints. Which really gets in one's way. Except that, I loved the game.
gameranand
Jun 12, 2011 at 11:11 AM
Well my complain was buddy...He came in my fireline and got a shot and then what the hell he started shooting me..Had to reload the recent saves. Yes spawning of scouts was irritating sometimes. Many times I used to kill all of them and then go to some place and when I return through same path all were there. I thought africans are pretty fast. :)) :)) :))

Dont take me wrong guys ..i m only saying for me farcry 2 was not a good gaming experience and no ubisoft games r not all flop nor i judge game by developer .i only judge them by there gameplay and replayability.no matter who make them.They r good at AC series and other tactical shooter like Ghost recon not at FPS game IMO.Crytek only make FPS game so they r good at it.

Jun 12, 2011 at 12:59 PM
^^ No offence but If the game was not a good experience for you then you can't just say that game is epic epic fail now can you??? Many good games are not good experience for me but I don't just say that they are fail yes I criticize them but not like this. I found Crysis 2 AI dumb compared to Crysis and I posted a hel about it in respective thread but I never said that game is bad or fail. It was a success its just that it wasn't good enough for me thats it.

:punch: its not a epic fail.....otherwise FarCry 3 wont be an open world sand boxie it will like FarCry 1....
ya some glitches r there in FarCry 2 but whats the big deal..every game has that....
thumb rule: there r developers so there r Bugs....

so you want to say, Ubisoft games = FLOP? you judge games looking at who is the damn developer?

Of course crysis 2 can be said as succesor(not epic!) to Crysis1/warhead...the story and gameplay is more immersive than ever!:)

what r u tryin to say.????

They are godfather of crysis and crytek.(dev of bemoth cryengine 3 ..king of all game engines.)
Just because the final title in series failed to entertain a bunch of people doesnt mean they are nuts or anythin..ok!:muttering:

so you want to say, Ubisoft games = FLOP? you judge games looking at who is the damn developer?

Developer do matters.!! my friend.
After all it is they who make it all happen.Remember!Its a different thing Although.

But deciding a game's worth by its devs' name is mindless.For sure.Period.

Alright, sorry. I take that back :p I do appreciate them for their engine.

But the game,I payed thousand bucks for that pos god dammit! and very disappointed. The bugs in the single player still have not been fixed, and the online portion(which is by far, a cheapest call of duty rip off I had seen) is filled with hackers. :evil:

Yes they did but too late. Whats the use of that when I have already completed the game. Crysis 2 wasn't a goddamn RPG.

Ontopic.

2.Hype and Fan Following
3.High Budet
4.Large Devlopment Team and Dev Cycles.

High-quality games with big budget.

I like greenish environment very much. When Crysis series moved to cities I was really pissed od. Far cry 2 wasn't in green environment either, it was kinda brownish. Now the series is going back to its winning environment but the problem is that Crysis/warhead have set very high milestone for Far cry 3. I just hope that this game atleast reach that milestone if not break it.

Screenshot seems to have received some artificial VFX treatment unlike in-game footage.Anyways Game should be awesome..Far Cry 2 Was Big but tiresome to explore with highly repetitive moves and environments.
The fourth screen from top is good enough to Challenge the likes of Crysis and BF3..Anvil Engine Has been redesigned specially for Far Cry 3 ,Rainbow Six and AC3.

Mar 31, 2012 at 1:56 PM
Its basically rating of games based on certain criteria like budget and commercial success.\

AAA Games generally have these characteristics:
- High-quality
- Broad market
- High sales
- Large teams
- Big budget
- Polished audio-visual direction
- Perfect technical and artistic execution
- Playable & fully enjoyable within the first five minutes of play
- Exhaustively tested
- Bug free
- Great usability
- Continous, balanced entertainment from beginning to end
- Great graphical user interface
- First place in the markets, and great marketing
- Hype
gameranand
Mar 31, 2012 at 7:16 PM
It mostly is hype of the game. Whether its balanced or not, full of entertainment or not doesn't matter until release.

Sujeet #68

FarCry 3 Delayed till Dec 2012

As you've probably seen by now, Far Cry 3 has been delayed. The new release dates are:

Europe - November 29th
North America - December 4th

Why the delay?

We’re taking a little more time to create the best possible gameplay experience. Far Cry 3 is a huge offering and we want every element of this insane, action-packed adventure to be of the highest possible quality for the players.

Remember: A rushed game is forever bad.

Thanks you for your patience and understanding,

Announcement: Revised Release Dates - Nov. 29th in EU, Dec. 4 in NA | Forums

^^ Examples ??

The definition varies from individual to individual. This is just my point of view:

AAA Game: Targets large audience and mostly aimed at generating profit. E.G. MW series, FarCry series, Battlefield Series.

AA Games: Focus mainly on gameplay and immersion smaller budget smaller dev team like XBLA games and ios games.

A game: Casual games usually made by single individual or a very small group. e.g. Miniclip flash games,Yetisports etc

loved the gameplay video. Since the first FarCry , the concept of exploring and using our own tactics to take out enemies is very cool , unlike most FPS games u dont go on a killing spree , need to think before you act .
Waiting to get my hands on the 3rd version.

come on man.
the disease creates more a realistic gameplay, even if its a pain in the a$$.
other than that.
but i always loved to explore such vast expanses. fc2 was great, same fun for fallout 3.
hopefully it wont be big and complicated as skyrim, but skyrim still rules.

Ubisoft are doing what Crytek should've done with C3. I just loved FC2, the open-ness, wild fire, the graphics but hated the frequent spawn of enemies. The gunplay was great.

They said FC3 is GOTY material from the previews, the lush environment, so killer moves like using a knife to kill two people, all that sounds great.

But still, I miss Nanosuit. Crytek should've done this with Nanosuit and added aliens instead of humans.

BTW, will defo preorder this game.

PC Gamer gives it a 89/100. Review remains very positive, looks like finally we have gotten the Far Cry game we always want.

*www.pcgamer.com/review/far-cry-3-review/

The original Far Cry’s developers Crytek used to describe that game’s philosophy as ‘veni, vidi, vici’: you show up, you scout out the situation, and you decide how to conquer it. Ubisoft kept the Far Cry name, and Crytek tried to stay true to its spirit in the Crysis games. But only Far Cry 3 really feels focused on doing that concept justice. You’ve got a huge island to explore, ridiculously effective tools for scouting every hostile situation, and so many clever intersecting systems to inspire creative ways to conquer them. It’s a better stealth game than Far Cry 1, set in an open world that feels richer than Far Cry 2’s. That’s an amazing thing to play.

Far Cry 3 PC Is Like Open World Uncharted In 1080P And High Resolution Textures

That's a satisfying comment and i believe this guy because i've played uncharted 1 & 2.

Far Cry 3 seems one of the strongest title for pc gamers this year boasting some breathtaking visuals. Might pip crysis 3 in terms of overall visual appeal.

Don't think so, FC3 looks great but better than crysis 3? NO WAY!! Even Crysis 1 had better water tessellation then FC3.
Try comparing the latest two PC videos of FC3 and C3, C3 easily looks better ;)

Nov 23, 2012 at 4:22 PM
^^ I don't think those gameplay videos belong to pc. And about the water, i find far cry 3's implementation to be better. Crysis 2 had the most usage of tessellation in a game yet and to the point being overdone. But this water looks more natural.

Still lets keep the verdict until the game releases.

Gameranand would be the perfect guy to give comments about visual feel considering his soon to be ready behemoth of a rig. :razz:

You seriously wouldn't want FC3 as your multiplayer option, coz its nothing original. Better get some other game, black ops 2 may be?(not that BO2 is original either, but you enjoyed the SP, so why not give the mp a try.)

How many hours do you think FC3 will give

25 hours.

As for the water, I was referring to Crysis 1, the dx10 tessellation effects were much better than the one in FC3. And it doesn't look natural to me, more like rushed to get the job done :|

Crysis 3 will surely be a looker, no doubt about that. Its mainly because this time, cryengine 3 will be extremely polished.
But farcry 3 is a surprise entrant amongst the heavyweights.

Comparison with uncharted sets new bar in terms of visual fidelity and i guess a brilliant gameplay package would make it even sweeter for consideration.
Besides, the open world environment will bring back veteran original crysis players as this gives a similar feel. The draw distance seems suberb as per gameplay videos.

Far Cry 3 has also bow and its also a one shot kill. Infact its actually needed in this game more than C3 but they never advertised, they never forced it on the players. Thats what I like, Freedom to choose what I want to do in the game. Some reviews could be fake or something but not each and every review and it clearly shows that Far Cry 3 would be one hell of a game for sure. :)

Farcry - forest, crysis - forest, crysis warhead - forest again. From the developer's perspective, it makes sense to jump into a different setting. They partly failed yeah, but at least they tried rather than being cowards and staying with what they are good at.

About the appeasing the console owners, it was kind of disappointing for the PC owners, but what else would you expect from a PC exclusive developer who makes AAA FPS games? they're not Blizzard to make a game and sell 6 million copies in a matter of weeks(FYI, Crysis sold about 3 million in its entire lifetime), Crytek is an independent developer and has to do something to survive in such a competitive industry. As if the Crysis piracy debacle wasn't a blow enough to crytek.

Its just one single game that went into a different path anyway, Crysis 3 seems bring back the combination of C1 and 2. And then they have Ryse, which has gone multiplatform-next gen and homefront 2, as a fan I'm totally happy with what they're doing ;)

Good analysis. What you said, indeed makes sense. The main objective for going multiplatform was to generate revenue.
To stay and survive as a pc only developer is very very difficult with exceptions like blizzard ( you rightly pointed this out).

DAMN! BEST START EVER! This defines bang starts. Awesome game! This can shyt on Crysis 2 any day at any time. One of the best graphics I've ever seen, if not THE best. Runs super smooth.... DX11, all high, HD5850, 1440x900, 30fps. Yes. 30 frames and it's locked. Constant 30. My beloved HD5850's doing it's work awesomely. After the letdown of ACIII, this brings back love for my card. Insane game, really. You instantly get connected with the player as he talks. He talks like a normal guy stuck in an island with freaks, normal in the sense, out of his f***in' mind! Fear, anxiety and the voice actor brings it up good. Can't believe how this game has evolved from FC2. It was all dusty, but this.... this is insanely awesome! Graphics, the best these two years. That's it, I'm stuck to my chair till my exams. Some screens.

Just started playing FC3 and I must say I am impressed, the developers have removed a lot of pesky things from FC2 such as traveling and check posts.. Love the graphics, really lush environs. The new crafting system adds another layer of richness to the game. Working smoothly at DX11 with the patches applied..

BTW... I like being Rambo in FC3 (*wink wink)

Well, started playing Yesterday...and I am totally into Single Player...Good gfx + Good gameplay + good story+good Ending= Good enough for me.

Graphics is really awesome even sometimes I thing those YouTube gameplay trailer did not do justice...Giving no Lag in my system.
Those who are expecting reality in gfx section, it is NOT offering you that, kinda like a well detailed animation movie...

Gameplay is huge...Lot of area to cover ,it got Gliders, zip lining and blah blah. Crafting medicine and Leather Pouch by collecting herbs and Hunting animals(Yuck) is kinda inspired from other obvious RPGs.

Dunno why I feel like they made an effort to make First Person Movement seem like very realistic...Camera Angle, Walking varies on Different kind of Plains.

Let us know.

Played for an hour - starts with crazy Vaas :) Nice graphics and sound effects with all jungle sounds and bees buzzing (irritating but so natural). Played on Ultra settings - turned down Shadows to High. I'm getting 25-30 FPS. Don't want to lower the resolution - will try to lower some other setting for higher FPS.

The gunplay's solid. Feels heavy and responsive. There's TON of things to do. Lovin' it. And oh, frames are now 35-50. Turned vsync off. No tearing though.

Please let me know the settings that you are using. I tried lowering the resolution but the game crashed. It starts in windowed mode and then I have to change it to fullscreen.

Mouse movements are restricted in menu screens - cannot access half the screen to the right and below - so no access to buttons there, instead use "tab" key. Is the entire screen accessible to you? Had similar issue with BF3 but changes to compatibility settings and game patches resolved the issue then.

Do let me know the drivers that you are using. Did you use AMD overdrive? I tried but did not get any increase in FPS - GPU was over 95% busy and temp around 72-75 degrees - its strictly stuck below 30 (as if locked).

Dec 4, 2012 at 11:24 PM
Managed to get FPS up to 40. PostFX and Shadow turned to Medium. HDAO, MSAA-2, Vsync-off, GPU buffered frame-2. Full HD - everything else turned to MAX. It still looks amazing.

Turning down PostFX instantly gave me 10 FPS bump - will turn it off completely as I dont see much difference in quality. Here is an article about it.

Guide How To Disable Depth Of Field. | Forums

But haven't figured out how to access full menu screen - just can't move mouse to right-half and bottom-half of the screen. Anybody???

This depth of field trick didn't affect my FPS. I'm using HD7950 on i5-3570K with 16GB of 1600MHz RAM. I'm getting constant frame rates of around 60 when settings are ultra high with MSAA off. "GPU buffered frame" also doesn't seem to have any effect.
My frame rate drops to 20 when I enable MSAA. Downloading latest beta drivers from AMD now... will post if it improves the performance with MSAA on.

The field of view (also field of vision, abbreviated FOV) is the extent of the observable world that is seen at any given moment.

Its customizable the last time i checked (in skyrim).

hi all,you are enjoying FC3 but I'm confused between ac3 & fc3,which one to buy.My hands are itching to play both of these.
A noob question does ac3 and fc3 require internet connection all the time you play ,as I don't have high speed broadband where I live have to relay on 20kbps mobile connection. When I bought Mafia 2 last time it was a disaster could start the game as it started updating every time I start the game,so had to relay on a street version.

Health bar decreases and finishes by just two or three hits by a damn Peacock? Jeez! Why does it look to me a poor copy of Assassins Creed?

Agreed, but more often than not some developers go too nuts and the enemies behave kind of funny rather than being intimidating. But i agree with you it all depends on how you present them. If you present them in a believable environment with a believable story then alien creatures can be alot of fun. I guess it's just about personal taste.

@gameranand completely agree with you there. For example in Skyrim I enjoyed killing undeads, dragon priests and draugrs much more than I enjoyed killing humans.

6/10 and it makes the worst? :confused: Definitely you won't be playing this game for story, but the exploration and various activities to be performed together with the gameplay more than make up for it. And talking about story, there's rarely any good stories in FPS games these days.

It should run fine at high settings on 1680 resolution. 6850 is marginally better (2-3fps imo) than my GTX460. And I am running it at these settings. However the games sometimes lags in cutscenes ( when we are in Citra's temple) . Hence I can tell you that.

6/10 and it makes the worst? :confused: Definitely you won't be playing this game for story, but the exploration and various activities to be performed together with the gameplay more than make up for it. And talking about story, there's rarely any good stories in FPS games these days.

Cod series and the original crysis are exceptions as far as story is concerned. Crysis 1 had a very strong plot for an fps imo and so is the modern warfare trilogy.

Done. Fantabulous game! My rating:
Graphics and Textures: 8/10
Gameplay: 7/10
Story: 3/10 (meaningless, childish nonsense)

So, 6/10 overall.

Conclusion: Just checked my played list for last 5-6 years, and haven't found a worst one than this. Still I am gonna finish it on the alternative method.

this review gave me cancer!

Crysis 1 had a very strong plot for an fps imo and so is the modern warfare trilogy.

Good presentation doesn't always mean good story. If its really that way, transformers movies have the best stories ever!
Crysis1 and MW series were good at that, will give them a 9/10 on that front, but story wise? they're average at best.

I don't expect anyone to agree. I don't read reviews, so I don't expect others to read mine. I just shared what I thought, and that matters to me.
What can I do if I can't take unrealistic stuffs in a so called realistic game? I hate the story of Crysis too, but the graphics, and gameplay makes it up. I never touched any fantasy, horror or psycho genre game, never will, but there I know which games belong to which genre so I could skip or play it, but this one? Well, it is a hotch-potch.
Whatever, I shouldn't have played this, wasted each and every seconds.

Well I don't like too much realism in game. In real life you get killed by one shot, now imagine if thats the case in game, would you really enjoy the game at all ?? In real life your after a bullet your health does not regenerate but it degrades, imagine that you got a bullet in your leg and then you are searching for a place for bandage and rest, rather than going to fight, no fun right. :)

Kinda getting bored of guys in suits sitting behind desks with their master plans of evil and chaos,nuclear war and all that. Thats what makes the character of vaas a refreshing change for me. Judging by the trailers and gameplay vids and reviews,he just seems to be one of those "I'll blow up this island because I can" kind of guys :p

Actors do that a lot of times, Christian Bale in Batman Begins for example, the suit was so uncomfortable and gave him such a head ache that he used all that rage in his performance which kinda like defined Batman in the movie :D

Here's the article on Vaas

Vaas was heavily inspired by a hard and emotional period I was going through in my life. I was coming out of a relationship and was feeling very broken and confused. So I guess in a way, I didn’t go to Vaas, Vaas was in me at the time and Ubisoft gave me the green light to let him out. It was nice to be given such freedom.

Like I said, I had fallen in love for the first time. I was also heartbroken for the first time…or maybe the second time. In real life no one ever expresses himself with such violence, or so crudely – and if you tried, they would lock your ass up before you could even utter “insanity.” The great thing about this part is that it lets me express all of what I was going through, and everyone forgave me after each take. So it’s not so much that I took him home, but that I was anxious to shoot so I could get him out.

Didint check the FPS actually. But since it lagged on my GTX460 at 1080p, I changed to 1680 @High.(except Post FX set to low :-( ) . I like to play at high settings on 1680 rather than low or medium settings at 1080p .

@cyborg47 yes I know about the batman costume. He couldn't turn his head in that one and it gave him headaches and all. I saw the making of and all the interviews on youtube :D
A lot of actors do that actually. Need to get the feel for the character to realistically potray the character.Its not easy.

And talking about bale, that guy just seems to torture his body :p gains weight for one movie, loses all weight for the next,then gets all the weight back for the next movie. Unbelievable dedication to his job. I was surprised by his physical transformation in The Machinist and even in The Fighter. Amazing guy.

@ithehappy That is a hallucinogen induced trip man. -_- And that was a known feature to be included in the game from way before it even released. And its good that they incorporated that in a game. Interesting area to explore rather than the beaten path of the same thing again and again. But then again, I respect your personal preferences. You have every right not to like it. I just needed to know what you were talking about by fantasy in the game.

Btw, I really hope you don't find drug/hallucinogen induced trips rubbish in movies atleast. Because you'll miss out on enjoying a lot of great movies if you do. Enter the void,requiem for a dream,trainspotting and fear and loathing in las vegas just to name a few.

I liked a comment you made some pages back,on how gaming reality is different from "real" reality though. That is so true. Spec ops is one game which made me get this better that anything :p
A line from the game was "Konrad:- The truth is that you’re here because you wanted to pretend to be something you’re not: A hero." I suggest you play that game if you haven't yet.

@zangetsu Oh that :D Yeah sorry about that :p Kinda hard to talk about a game without drawing references to other games. Sorry :p


On FC3, still can't start playing this -_- Waiting for when my exam ends on 14th. Will start after that. |m|
An issue I had with far cry 2 was that it got a little boring for me after a certain part. Hope this game is not like that.

Hey guys! I am not getting desired Frames Per Second on this game on my HD 7850. I checked everywhere and many people seems to get 40 fps avg on Ultra at 1080p (aa off) . So, the first time I played it I think I got around 40-45 fps on the settings mentioned, I didnt checked it though. Then today, I upgraded my driver to 12.11 beta 8 with Far cry 3 application profile . Every other game was almost performing same but Far Cry's FPS dipped I got avg 20 fps (6 min 31 max). So, I reverted back to 12.10 uninstalled the profile . Still I was getting around 20 fps .So, I ran driver sweeper and uninstalled driver again. I installed 12.4 and 12.11 beta again but the fps still is 20. Anyone please help me.

EDIT:OK wait, I just checked and It is with every game Crysis 2 is now averaging 18 fps earlier it was 38.BF3 averaging 30 earlier it was 42-44.

Can we just agree that we have different tastes and depending on that we may like or dislike certain games/things? From a discussion point of view, it's better to have couple of guys with a different viewpoint rather than everyone chanting "this game is awesome" blabbering. From what I got, ithehappy has no problem with graphics and gameplay, but rather with the story and the fantasy/hallucination sequences which is OK IMO. Story wise this game offers little, characters are mostly hollow. I really didn't feel the connection with the characters (playing character and NPC both) unlike games like Fear and even the original Crysis. From what I have got, if you approach this game as an action-adventure/exploration kinda game rather than a hardcore fps, you will probably enjoy this game more. But then, the Far Cry name is a big deterrent.

We can always agree to disagree and move on. :)

I tried this yesterday, FPS jumped from 40 to 47-48 - loved the scenery but fps would sometimes suddenly drop from 47 to 30 - it was not smooth at all. Turning it to low gives me smoother experience between 35-40 fps.

Not a joy to play on the x360 controller :p Switched back to keyboard+mouse |m|

Getting 28-32 fps with medium settings,HDAO and 4x anti aliasing @1080p on Ati catalyst drivers 12.6. FPS jumps to 40-48 at some places.

On High, I get 24-26.
very high = 18-24 fps.
Ultra = 18-20 fps :p

Will try out the depth of field disabling trick now and see if performances improves.

Disabled DOF:- Didn't get too much of a boost :\ about 2-3 fps. Disabled MSAA to see and things don't look too sharp and jagged. Getting 45-50 fps now.

Update:- AA off,DOF- disabled. Turned everything to max settings under custom except PostFxQuality-(disabled). Getting a comfortable 40-56 fps :O Drops to 32-35 at times.

^^ Which driver version are you using? I'm getting merely 30FPS with 2xmsaa that too with some stuttering with my config at ultra high. At what setting are you running the game? high? or with directx 9 ?

Here are my settings and fps i get -

I am using 12.6 drivers :p Way old.

And yes my custom settings are exactly the same as yours. Post fx shows "low" but I have disabled it in the gamerprofile.ini file.
And MSAA is 2x only. And I'm using dx11 as well.

Will post the screens a little later. Currently in the middle of assassins creed 3 mission. Will post far cry 3 screenshots soon.

And 30fps? :O Really? Dude you are using an hd7950!! Is it a constant 30 fps or sometimes it srops to 30 fps?

I'm getting 35-38 (varies with the location) and sometimes dipping to 28.
mandarpalshikar
Dec 15, 2012 at 1:45 PM
it drops to 30 fps sometimes (quiet frequently though) and reaches max 38

AMD need to work on their drivers quickly. Same problem is with Hitman Absolution. When MSAA is turned to even 2x fps drops to unplayable levels. Though, visually I did not find any difference between playing with MSAA on anf Off.

*i47.tinypic.com/sgir0m.jpg

*i47.tinypic.com/1129zdx.jpg <= This is how the game looks in these settings. 35-38 fps again. Ocassional dips to 29-32 fps(frequently). But most of the time it is 35-38.


Those are my settings. The only change is that I have set gpu max buffer frames to "1". Will check what happens if I increase it.



Update:- set it to 5. Framerate took a hit of 2-4 fps,so changed it back to one.
mandarpalshikar
Dec 15, 2012 at 3:14 PM
max buffer frames setting doesn't make any difference on my config... may be its related to VRAM... since 7950 has got 3Gb of it, no effect.

I just tried that PostFX thing... it also is not having any effect on frame rates. Be it "false", low or high.

I'm facing a strange issue. I've unlocked around 25-26 skills but in-game these are not getting activated. The skills points were available initially but skills remained locked until I reached a certain point in story mode.

Now the skills have been unlocked but in-game I do not get prompts to use them. e.g. death from above never appears - I thought I was not doing it right but then other skills are also not working. Reloading while sprinting is not working and neither is throw knife takedown. Even my health has just 2 bars - with new skills they should have gone up. I've put up the question to technical support. Anybody else facing similar issue?

One more thing I wanted to know - what is that green bar outside the health bars?

I've played the game over 20 hours now but the game time is still showing 14 hours.

Skill points will be accumulated but skills would unlock after you reach certain point in the story. Around 20 or so skills are unlocked once you meet up with Citra the first time. My skills got unlocked but I cannot use them in game - even arm tattoo is very small - it should have grown with new skills getting unlocked.

To be honest, I don't see a need to show off some tribal woman's boobs or having the protagonist hold them during the sex scene. It just seems like they're trying to impress the despo male audiences :| Maturity is fine in games, Max Payne 1 and 2 had it a long time ago, it was perfect for the kind of games they were, but I kinda feel like all this nudity, boobies, sex and etc are unnecessary for a game like FC3.

PS - All that judging from a few snippets I'd seen on youtube, haven't played the game yet, so I could be wrong about the necessity of adult content in FC3 ;)

No I am not talking to put them in game but if you are doing it then do it properly. For example if you are doing a sex scene in a game then the doers must be naked because you don't do sex while having your clothes on. Similarly when you are dealing with some rat ass *******s then you don't say hello sir. You talk like they talk, specially when game wants the gamer to think that they are one but don't do it properly. See what I like most in Witcher games is overall maturity they have put up in the game, I am not talking about the sex scene but if you hear the dialogues then you'll see that it have high mature content with slang and dirty talk like a monster slayer should do because he is no royalty you see. I don't want sex scenes in games but if you giving it a mature rating then the game should be mature overall and not just by blood and gore but by language, way of representation and all. I hope you are getting my point.

I am not saying that force some scene in games to make it or look like mature but if the story demands it then don't hide from it and properly provide that kind of stuff.
I haven't played this game either so won't say whether it was necessary or not but if it is then its OK and if its forced upon gamers then its a real bad thing.

@Reaper_vivek How can you not notice the difference after turning MSAA off? the grass and everything around has sharp jagged edges. Even 2x msaa makes things much smoother to look at.
No, apparently postFX uses some sort of aa technique, I am using Ultra postFX and no aa and I don't see a single jagged edge, @ 1680x1050.

After 8 hrs I can safely say, this is GOTY 2012, FC3 rocks, this feels like Fallout 3 combined with AC3 having graphics like Crysis. :D A true sandbox game after Crysis set in tropical island.

One thing that does bother me is how overpowered I had become, with a silenced M16 rifle, Shotgun, Crossbow for stealth and silenced sniper I can pretty much wipe the floor with all enemies(except leopards, I hate leopards)
Reaper_vivek
Dec 22, 2012 at 1:03 AM
I hate leopards too, and this game is amazing indeed.
MSAA does nothing, postFX has all the anti-aliasing features, as well as draw decals. so it's very taxing on the GPU. and I personally feel no difference, the main thing is I should get 60fps. and I am getting that, somewhat :p
J
Jripper #432
Dec 22, 2012 at 1:28 AM
Ah well thats whats doing the trick for you guys then. I have postfx disabled to get decent framerates and turning msaa off as well makes the vegetation unbearable to look at. jagged edges everywhere.
So turned msaa to 2x and playing. postfx is still off though.
vamsi_krishna
Dec 22, 2012 at 8:27 AM
AFAIK, PostFX deals with Bloom/HDR, Motion blur and Some kind of AA. Possibly FXAA.
tkin
tkin #434
Dec 22, 2012 at 1:34 PM
PostFX uses FXAA at High and Ultra, which pretty much rules out any need for MSAA, the kickback is the massive FPS drop, upto 30% in some areas when its set to ultra, but I like eye candy, so it stays on, and in my game even the leaves have aa, so no jaggies for me, FXAA does blur a little bit but it goes well with the setting of FC3, you won't notice the blurring unless you have your nose up against the monitor and zooming in, the motion blur hides the FXAA blurring.

Coming to gameplay, how the hell am I supposed to hunt predators using crossbow, this is nuts, so far killed the golden tiger(died 4 times, mostly due to the other tiger), black panther(died three times by the panther, sniped the other leopard from ledge, got lucky when it got stuck in some trees) and now it wants me to kill leopards(Yes, plural) using crossbow, Fk this $hit, I ain't going there until I get full 6 health bars :evil:

PS: The new skills I unlocked are amazing, first chained 3 takedowns, ended with grenade takedown on last guy, took out 2 more with knife takedown :D

Where's the fun in that, this is just like Assassins Creed 2+, sneak to a post, get a good vantage point, mark all targets, take out the alarms first, either manually, or by shooting both of them, change location, take out the snipers, then kill the rest, take out the heavys using Molotov(until you unlock the heavy takedown), also free caged animals if there are any(use the pandemonium to blow the alarm).

No fun in playing with trainers. No need for strategy if you use trainers :p Might as well march up to every enemy and tiger and stab them to death. You're not gonna die anyway xD
Or just use infinite RPGs, boomkawpakawblasttoinfinity.

No. It doesn't have any benchmarking tools.

Thanks.

Where's the fun in that, this is just like Assassins Creed 2+, sneak to a post, get a good vantage point, mark all targets, take out the alarms first, either manually, or by shooting both of them, change location, take out the snipers, then kill the rest, take out the heavys using Molotov(until you unlock the heavy takedown), also free caged animals if there are any(use the pandemonium to blow the alarm).

I'll keep these in mind once I start playing this game.

Any ideas on how to complete that ridiculously difficult chopper level? I am at a point where I cannot complete side missions either so kinda stuck here :(
The one after killing hoyt where Jason has to rescue Riley manning a chopper turret and the privateers rain an Armageddon of RPGs?? I used the enhanced perception but even that does not help. The goons are on the ground and out of line of sight so not even able to point the turret at them.

Lovely game BTW! I thought that climbing towers would get mundane over time but they become increasingly difficult to climb and the end result is exhilarating :D Also it simultaneously rewards exploration and also punishes in case you try to become too adventurous( nasty experiences with crocs ;) ) The only thing missing is the quick save feature which should have been present given the difficulty bar set by the game.

For all who are speculating about a person's demise, read:

Vaas won't come back, next you have Hoyt, Vaas's boss and also the end game boss, with trained mercs who are even more deadly, total gameplay is 25hrs for me at medium difficulty, everything complete, Vaas dies between 15-20hrs I think, second part is shorter.

Yeah, all side missions, relics, recipes, signature weapons, radio towers, weapons unlocked, inventory upgrades etc. Just take a look at handbook, everything must be completed in order to get 100%.

Cannot save during missions, press escape and check the menu, if it says Abort/Restart mission in the menu then you are in a mission and cannot save. Only autosave works during missions.

Okay the game is proving awesome so far.Played it head on for 7-8 hours for 2 days.
Just have a minor problem:-
with the 2nd vision jason gets after drinking the stuff citra gives him. How on earth does he see a vision about the guy in white? You can only hallucinate about things that you are familiar with or things about which you have formed a wild idea in your head. You cannot have a precise hallucination about someone that you need to see in order to move ahead,specially when you have not even heard or seen him.

My thoughts:-
That being said,the game is so much fun. And the gameplay is very smooth as well. Major props to the amount of detail in the game and implementing it in the gameplay. The sheer number of ways to approach a situation is overwhelming. And I am doing the main missions and the side quests simultaneously and my character has almost turned into a mini beast.
LMG+Sniper(Silencd)+Assault rifle(silenced)+Shotgun/flamethrower means I am pretty much equipped to handle anything. Hell even hunting bears and tigers are easy now. Just use that LMG and everyone is dead. :p however I am more of a stealth guy, so I mainly use my sniper rifle and assault rifle for human enemies and the LMG for heavy enemies and tough wild animals(tigers,bears etc).

One thing I really enjoyed is the fact how the main character changes.
At first,he kills and is hysteric that he killed someone. He is afraid of all the chaos around him. Later in the game, he burns crop fields,takes out entire waves of enemies with a flamethrower and is exhilarated. "woohoo this is so awesome!" ,"Those b@st***s never knew what hit them!". This kind of character development in a game. Kudos to that. Its really enjoyable.

I don't know how far I am from the end. I just received the compass and going to talk to buck for the 3rd time.
Story of the game is nothing special. Typical lore related with islands+pirates,kidnapping and friends thrown in. The game is what it said it would be. Fun.

Finished the main story, and did most things there is to on the first island.
It's a nice game, except for some parts I din't like
1) What's with this vision of the future part, I hated it. Didn't make any sense, instead it would have been better if some NPC tells Jason about Hoyt and Willis

2) Making the island inaccessible just because the game wants us to do it in a "cool" style put me off, I wanted to liberate more outposts prior to getting on with Hoyt's part of the story. We could have still helped willis get on the plane.

3) After we save our friends and betray citra, it didn't make sense that the rebels will still help me, I understand that their cause was bigger than their leader, but still

4) The boss fights(read 1v1 knife with Vaas and Hoyt) was ok, but the sad part was after we kill Hoyt how does everyone in the room dies? they had assault rifles and what not, did Jason get into schizophrenia and killed them all at once(weird) or did they just committed suicide because their boss died.

5) The side quests don't have the same kind of pull that the main quest has, I don't feel the urge to play the game after finishing off the main quest

6) Finally, the AI disappointed. I didn't die once in my entire playthrough except for when a tiger pounced on me. I was playing on Warrior difficulty

But the gameplay, hunting, and story made the game exciting.

People who are using Crossfire, here is the trick to fix Micro Shuttering. I have already tested it.

Download RadeonPro preview version. Here is the link: *www.radeonpro.info/en-US/Downloads/Preview.aspx

Now Create a Profile by selecting the EXE file of Far Cry 3, the normal one or the DX11 one, whichever you're using.
Now go to the Tweak tab, select Vsync Control as always on, Select the Triple Buffering Check-box and set the Refresh Rate as per your Monitor's refresh rate.
Check the Check-Box for Dynamic Frame Rate Control and provide a value as per your cards' strength. In my case it is around 55.
Now under the Crossfire Tweak Section, Select the Bioshock Profile for the Force CrossfireX profile dropdownlist.

Alternatively, if you don't want to use RadeonPro, you can just Turn on V-Sync and select the Bioshock Profile from the catalyst Control panel and create a Profile for Far Cry 3.


Will post the performance enhancement tricks without losing Visual quality once I'm finished with my testings.

These special items are used to craft the ultimate kits, like maximum ammo kit, or max arrow quiver, only weapon holding kit does not require any special stuff. To unlock these kits you must craft the previous ones, like craft all 3 ammo kits, 4th one aka the maximum one is unlocked.

Ok, kits like ammo, arrow quiver etc does not require any recipes, all you need are the skins, now check all the kits to see which animals you need, kill them and craft your loot, then when you get all three for each category the 4th, i.e the ultimate kit is unlocked to be crafted by using special(legendary) animal skins, like man eater shark, black panther etc, when you have those skins you can craft those max kits, and as long as you do not craft the ultimate kits those special skins will remain in your inventory.

Legendary animals can only be found in path of the hunter quests and must be killed with arrows.

PS: If you posses the necessary skins, just double click the item to be crafted, recipes are required only for syringes and special arrows, not for kits.

Ok, kits like ammo, arrow quiver etc does not require any recipes, all you need are the skins, now check all the kits to see which animals you need, kill them and craft your loot, then when you get all three for each category the 4th, i.e the ultimate kit is unlocked to be crafted by using special(legendary) animal skins, like man eater shark, black panther etc, when you have those skins you can craft those max kits, and as long as you do not craft the ultimate kits those special skins will remain in your inventory.

Legendary animals can only be found in path of the hunter quests and must be killed with arrows.

PS: If you posses the necessary skins, just double click the item to be crafted, recipes are required only for syringes and special arrows, not for kits.

I'm actually impressed with Ubi. It's like all the radio towers are unique (except the jumping). The way to the up is all different from my experience of activating most of the radio towers. Good job Ubi.

And I finished the game. Awesome ending. Left-click proved worthy of Jason.

Absolutely love how every tower is different, just like each outpost has a unique attitude...

The game started off pretty rough on me as I had very limited ammo (its a pain to upgrade them) and a single holster. But as it progressed, I am finding it encouraging as I am now able to clear the outposts and unlock it.

Bow and Arrow looks to be impossible to pull off from a distance with a sharp aim

Learn to calculate drop, use the meter.

Bow and arrows are useless..
On the contrary most useful in game, pick up arrows after killing enemies, also one shot silent kill, most useful when attacking outposts stealthily, I managed to clear entire outposts with nothing but arrows, no alarms, also explosive arrows are like mini RPGs with near zero reload time. Most versatile weapon in game when you learn to use it, also has good range, just learn to calculate and predict drop.

I am getting 35 fps average on everything at highest settings even the AA. Also fixed the micro stuttering with some minor tweaks. Damn so many animals to kill even the water is not safe. I got in a river for safety and there was a goddamn crocodile waiting for me, kinda difficult game on highest difficulty, nothing is really safe in the game, had to use syringes to heal.

your game version ? and how long did you play the game ? Autosave and chechkpoint save are not same in this game - when you see a dual pistol icon on the upper right side of the screen you will knpow that the game has been properly saved. Another easy way is to buy/sell something or fix some radio towers.

when yestreday I attacked a camp a chopper came and made the task very hard .. get rid of that using LMG and a RPG anyway.

Agreed, Yes i DID need money too, because i could not wait to have weapons for free by fixing radio towers, i just bought some of them right away, I remember after the visit to Citra I went to free an outpost where i immediately felt the necessity of a better sniper rifle than what i had then, also money is very well needed while buying attachments to guns as guns become advanced and prove useful in stringent situations. such as Long barrels, suppressers while stealthy, or extended clip, reflex and red-dot while mid-range combat etc. I felt the relics a bit uselss except they are sometimes a challenge to find, and provide nothing much which conributes greatly to char development.

Guys how to find the relics in the game. I mean they show up in map when I go near them but when I go to the relic place then there is nothing there at all. I mean just plants and all. Also there are some loots which I can't get even when I am standing right on the spot where there is container, same is happening with relics also.

Actually I thought that I'll just kill the tiger is cage but if got free after shooting. :cry:


The best and effective way of dealing with Tigers, and black panthers specially (they are more vicious and often deadlier than normal sumatran tiger, not talking about Golden Ones, they are killing machines!), is to quickly track them with the DSLR and track them from distance. Snipers are good to kill them from distance but when they have marked you, you have to do only one thing and that is "run like hell!"

...but there is a catch here, I have seen tigers often chasing me upto a region which is basically an area around the apparent source point of the tiger spawned or first seen in the map. Upto this point if u stop and its behind you, it will definitely wound or kill you, outside this area if u manage to rush out, the beast will start to behave indifferently or start to walk off to the inner region (hunt-zone). If u still get near it again, it will trigger the chase again, so fundamentally you have a short/long (depends upon your locus of movement around the latest origin point of the tiger) window of time where you can make good use of this behaviour of the beast and kill it with whichever weapon you are carrying, spraying with SMG/LMG/Assault or best ( i prefer the most) the magnum hand gun ( had a one shot kill in path of the hunter ..very powerful ).


I personally found this point and now its much easier to get rid of them, after getting killed too many times while using bow and arrow and trying to kill it thinking i was rambo !...but then...:D

but in sudden and close encounter with tigers such as just outta cage in a red camp it very much depends on the reaction of yours, i used syringes quickly , both medi-pack ones and the one which repels beasts, and then ran into water ( and got eaten by shark LOL in two seconds after that :D the tiger trolled me...) or ran into roads ( a good place to trigger the above hunt-zone strategy i apply now ). although latest tiger troll was there was TWO OF THEM in a camp and had me for dinner:blackeye:

i found the bow and arrow pretty useless. i'd rather use a silenced sniper/assault rifle and pick off the reds with head shots. the camera is pretty badass.

for killing tigers/leopards etc i tag them with the camera and then weaken them with the sniper [from a distance] and then use an animal repellant syringe and go in all rambo style with a shotgun. incase the sneaky leopards creep up on me, i put them down with an LMG. they are pretty weak and go down with a few shots.

i was taking down this red camp. i sneaked in near the walls and hid in the bush. as i was getting ready to takedown a charger, a tiger showed up and killed him. i quickly used a animal repellant syringe and sat in the bush for the tiger to do its work, when one of the reds threw a molotov on the grass at the tiger, a distance from the bush i was in. the tiger leapt and fled.. but the fire spread in the undergrowth and the bush [and myself] were on fire in no time. i leapt out only to be shot down by the reds. :pullhair:

even the buffalos and the bear go down with a max of 2 shotgun pellets in the face from close range. use the animal repellant. its indisposable in these situations.

How do I kill the shark, I mean they bit me but I am unable to harm them at all.

you can kill a shark the way anirban suggested, its the most sane way of doing so, but again as he said the shark will sink to the bottom and you need to have "swim faster" and "hold breath longer in water" skills to skin them in one go. In my case there is a camp i conqured which is just at the sea-shore with lots of shark around, if i go into the water slow from the beach, there are points of submerged land where you can stand for some time. When the shark was around, i accidentally had switched to RPG and fired a big shot to the nearest piece of submerged land to the shark and the explosion killed it and also took my health bar from 4 to grey ( just about to die ). a way Not recommended for anyone except Serious Sam.

yep that knife game is really a good source of money farming. but i prefer the duck shooting with sniper somewhere on the beaches..

Agreed on duck shooting, its a good one for farming and honing one's sniping skills, also reminds of the 90's Video Game which had a Dog who used to pick the dead ducks and show'em to me with a big smile :D ..i wish i had one in Far Cry 3

2. Black Ops 2 2nd Mission where Mason uses the wing suit and lands in heavy rain.
3. Far Cry3 any archipelagic view at daytime with sea point
4. Any other game which proved to be spectacular in terms of in-game photography

1. BattleField3 Any Mission where the occlusions are making it a picture perfect frame, also if possible some light effects from a fringe and dust floating in the air with particle reflections ( too much to ask i know :D)
2. Black Ops 2 2nd Mission where Mason uses the wing suit and lands in heavy rain.
3. Far Cry3 any archipelagic view at daytime with sea point
4. Any other game which proved to be spectacular in terms of in-game photography


However, i better not make the thread off track, returning to Far Cry3, anyone please suggest tactical points against heavy gunners, i have not met them that much, but last few encounters including one in a trial was not very hope-inspiring :|

Sure No problem. :)

@gameranand: i see you are using CF.. have you had any issues of microstuttering??

Agreed on duck shooting, its a good one for farming and honing one's sniping skills, also reminds of the 90's Video Game which had a Dog who used to pick the dead ducks and show'em to me with a big smile :D ..i wish i had one in Far Cry 3

And the dog used to laugh sarcastically when u miss a shot :p

i played that on my cousin's TV console.. dunno know the name of the console. used to run games from a cassette.

I am facing a lot of crashes now with Patch 1.04. I guess I should revert back to older patches and see the results. Cilus also said that he was facing crashes and now me. Looks like game has some problems with Crossfire setups.
Sure No problem. :)

Alright if people having crossfire setups gets too many crashes then here is what you should do. Some tips from Cilus and some from me.
1. In CCC Go to 3d Application settings, scroll down to last and for "AMD Crossfire Mode for 3D Application" select "Use AMD per-defined profile"
2. Get Radeon Pro and make a new profile there for Far Cry 3
3. From Tweaks tab Select Vsync control "Always on".
4. Check Tripple Buffering and write your monitor refresh rate in Display refresh rate
5. Check Dynamic framerate control and put the value as per your card. Mostly set it to around 50 and it should do fine.

I hope this helps.

It works on patch 1.04. have to see the stability for long sessions. Will confirm and report back. :)

Anirban...below is the setting which i am using through "Video" and "Video Quality" menu in-game for DX11

Res : 1366*768
Vsync : Off
MSAA : 8
AO : SSAO
View Distance : Full

Terrain, Vegetation, Texture, Water, Environment all at : High
Post Fx : Low
Shaodows : Low

its on DELL XPS 15 and its giving me 32-35 FPS at night/day time.

Question is , will the above mod will just turn off MSAA to 0 because that can be done in-game too and when also it comes up with too much jagged edges on objects, also Shadows="high" can result into a bit FPS loss, so will the above mod just overrides in-game settings or its a way to gain additional FPS apart from the same?

^^i will have to test that.. but i prefer shadow - Medium. low is a bit LOW in my taste. :p

a nice mod. gonna test it and provide feedback..

Hey guys, here is a new and extremely in-depth Realism Mod. It strictly affects weapon behaviour; if you want things like changes to weapon cost, map/hud etc.. you'll have to compile it with other mods manually.

*www.mediafire.com/?i9chkmbze20vyqm

This mod includes Leechmonger's Attachment mod (modified slightly) and Khenaz' Better Sights mod.

Brief changes:
All guns have more realistic performance in the game.
-Damage is based on actual weapon terminal ballistics tests
-Sway in sights and aiming are factors of the weapon's weight
-Recoil is a factor related to actual weapon recoil, incorporating bullet weight, powder, velocity, and weight of weapon
-Accuracy is based on actual Minute of Arc extreme spreads for the most realism
-Reload time is 25% slower on Assault Rifles, LMG's, and SMG's
-All weapons have realistic magazine capacities, including with Extended Magazines
-All weapons have vastly more maximum range
-Weapons have proper rates of fire (most especially that PKM.)
-Weapons have a new attachment setup that is a modified version of Leechmonger's attachments mod

Enjoy!

1) I guess none of the gamers (except the one who is in hurry to complete the game) would have missed the pill. Its just a memory sequence.

2) Poker rules and card details are clearly mentioned in the help tab when u sit for a poker game in Farcry 3. Try understanding the card values and priority combinations.

so for heavy gunners, head shot with sniper if dey r far in outpost, RPG if they were in a room or something, if not RPG, then headshot with LMG until they die, and do have the beatdown skill, which let you takedown heavies with a knife if undetected, grenade was nvr able to wade dem off prprly 4 me.. :p
they nvr posed me the problem, only fire heavies were some problem, which i solved by taking fireproof injection b4 encountering dem.. :p

If I get the 4th weapon slot ( still did not able to get enough items to craft it ) I will either opt for a sig 1911 or sig Bull.

@ rakesh_ic - I did found the alternate path but there was a heavy always getting alerted whenever I go through there slowly - tried using rocks and diversion here and there but that did not work either - so at last stopped throwing rocks, just quickly pass through that area using covers only. Hint : you have to be very quick and use cver properly.

BTW, here's a funny part ;-)

after passing through that area you have to get on a ship but you can go to that ship without even going through that heavily guarded area but the game won't show you the ladder so that you can climb on that ship and continue the mission in such a easy way

Did both of the above

Test Name :I deeply thought about every possible scenario to own a heavily guraded Outpost.
Ingredients : watched Rambo 3 and Expendibles..again
Description : Shot animal cages to distract gurads.
Sneked off the alarm, planted C4
Kniefed off a assaulter guarding a car with gun-mounted
Blasted off the C4 once the gunners were back
Ripped the rest to tiny lilttle pieces of meat with the mounted gun

Result : outpost freed
Conclustion : Enjoyed the Game :D

the devs have made some flaws IMO....

1. being realistic open world, one expects to move about in the environment as in real world. the movement should have been better. Jason should be able to climb slopes till around 50degrees. its just too frustrating after a certain time, to go around a lot of distance for traversing a simple rockface. :pullhair:

2. Jason loses a complete health bar and some more when he falls from a height of around 2-3meters. this is completely absurd, because the main story line has places where Jason has to jump down from a height more than 2meters, and has cost me 2-3 health syringes. :x

3. Legs. a realistic open world FPS game and no legs. visible legs would have been so much better. feels like COD. :\

4. no guns in water?? what happens to the guns and grenades and molotovs that Jason lugs around all the time? atleast a handgun wold have been so much better.

5. realistic ballastics [sans Sniper Elite V2] would have been AWESOME.

the devs should have seen these issues. seriously..

btw, did i tell you that AMR is BADASS?? :sniper:

Alright let me answer these in my own way.

1. Yes I agree to that but I have done trekking and 50 degrees on a sloppy mountain is unrealistic. I am not saying that they shouldn't have done that but I am just telling you the truth.

2. Well I won't complain about that because you get to heal even without syringes and when upgraded then 3 bars at a time. Do we really have to complain about this, I mean I can complete whole game without ever need to do a syringe, I mean it seriously.

3. No it wouldn't have been, its a typical FPS not Mirror's Edge.

4. I just wish that there would have been a way to kill a shark, I won't say that I want a gun in water.

5. I think that blast are pretty good, I agree not that good but hey, its one hell of a game, there are always some flaws left.

1. me gone Trekking too. you can go for 50degree rockfaces for a couple of meters. gather momentum and clamber up. i have said rockfaces, which are not cliff sides ;)

2. i dont get you?? explain this point?

3. Crysis? and i forget the names of few other notable FPS with vissible legs.

4. Kay.. not a gun, but atleast melee..

5. Ballistics. Not blasts. Ballistics as in bullet drop/drift from long range sniper shots. the AMR has everything to make it badass, but it makes things easy. i am using modified ballistics mod for better/realistic[NO bullet drop/drift :( ] weapon handling... maybe this point is overkill/un-necessary, but the above..

Completed the game and family and friends are most important to me ... if you get what I meant ;-)

Al-right, reached upto the 2 endings part and boy, did I like Citra even for a bit even when she was making out with Jason ... ? naah, not a bit because she did "it" to him after she has dozed him and tried to use Jason for her own reason and superstitious ideas even after when she has got the hold of the whole island and what kind of lady can kidnap her loved one's family members and for such mean purpose ? anyway, enough talk about her.

and i did not like the - "pucker that *******" line -- what type of gay word is this ?God !, what game devs are thinking these days, are they even sane enough ?

Apart from those I did like the game very much .. so far the best FC3 game I've ever played after FC1 and the story, gameplay, optimization all are perfect IMO - this game is getting a straight 9/10 from me ;-)

Try out putting some points on healing in the skills tab. u will know what he is talking about.

if u closely observe, Jason shows his "legs" (that u are keen on) while jumping over a table, ledge etc.. check that yourself..

Agreed with Anirban on that "i cant see my legs" but I am least bothered about that, but when its called unrealistic in a game, I might just want to excercise a thought of making a game so "REALISTIC" for the sake of it that "Jason" dies after consuming the First bullet that hits him and its game-over and that doesnt please me at all.

Speaking of realism, anyone has encountered the "indestructible" lady at the beach-house? She gives some quest as an NPC to keep a drunkard out of a grave and when its completed, she becomes a just another villager in that place. Now, i shot one full round of LMG on her head and ear, hit her with sniper from Point Blank Range,emptied magazines of SMG and assaults on her, used napalm grenade, planted C4 right beneath her feet and fired a RPG at her hut..all to blast and burn and devastate the whole goddamn place to smithereens and all that she'd do is the get a lil frightened and lower down asking for mercy from me. BUT SHE DID NOT DIE!! :pullhair::hissyfit::punch::banghead:

Jason has serious apathy to cliffs and rock faces as anirban said, i just found him very reluctant to climb in some edges, am not denying that, i could not climb those anyway, but when he decends down a stiff slop his health bar depeltes like he has been hit with bazooka ! even when i did it with Jason's butt closely in touch with ground and made it like slide, and how high it was ? say some 6-8 feet, no Hero suffers injury like he does. Also it outweighs the damage taken from LMG's from heavy's in combat!! in terms of amount of health bar depletion :O

I concur on this, if the approach "Game" was all that representational in realism in its pragmatic ways, it would really not have offered enjoyment. Even i ridicule myself to have "save and reload" options in my real life, mostly in office :D enough said.

You know we kind of want a Semi real game. Nothing in game is real but its the job of developers that gamers should think that its as near real life as possible. Be it sound, recoil and all. Now the case in hand far Cry 3 has weird health drops. I mean you loose 1 bar for a bullet and you loose 2 bars when you jump from 2-3 meters which is unrealistic in proportion. So you see, its not about making the game real, its about mixing realism and fantasy in right proportion. I hope you got my point. :)

I understand what you are talking about and i also understand the game is not about jumping from the hill tops or even gliding on the surfaces..
so yeah, if u cant take a vehicle everywhere, make sure you traverse the right path rather than making a mistake of gliding on the surface every time --- Thats what i learnt by playing FC3 though :)

I dint think there is much to read into or break the headupon in this game. It was an entertainer like watching any humorous movie to me.. so yeah i enjoyed the short story.

how do you get that suit??

lol its not magical.. seen a flying squirrel?? its like that, with extendable fins.

you will unlock it when you reach Hoyt's island.

just unlocked some signature weapon which looks like a badass shotgun. My wallet doesnt allow me to carry that amount o' money which buys it, guess i have to reinstate my hunting skills and bad mood to take out some extremely lame looking still vicious "BIRDS" called cassowary and what not!!! Seriously, people with animal rights are goona shoot us for making wallets out of weird animals! :-0

Well, my weapon set was:
1. Silenced signature submachinegun, The Shredder, for quick and dirty close quarter takedowns, only used against human enemies. Had an insanely high rate of fire and huge ammo clip to take out anything.
2. Signature M133 shotgun aka The Bull, used for any and every animal that try to take me by surprise, specially useful for tigers/leopard and bears, also buffaloes.
3. Recurve bow fitted with targeting site, useful for taking down humans and herbivores without making noise or wasting ammo, also explosive bow makes quick work of vehicles(sort of like a mini rpg with near zero reload time and about 10 shots can be carried).
4. The M700 at first followed by Z93(both snipers), both fitted with silencers and long range scopes to take down any human and non human enemies without making a noise, allows me to take out an entire base without triggering an alarm and remain undetected, the M700 did fine till armored enemies came and then I switched to the Z93 to take them out as well.

Apart from that, 4 units of medical syringes(and about 20 green leaves to make more), and one each of other syringes(like hunters instinct) etc always accompanied me, to tackle all situations.

The AMR is an useless weapon, it has no silencer, one shot and the enemies will flood you, and far cry's enemy tactics make it impossible to shoot moving targets as they tend to dodge, if enemies rush you that AMR is good as dead in water. I tried and learned the hard way when I was instantly surrounded by a dozen enemies, had to spam medicine to get out alive.

true. but AMR is basically a hit n run weapon.
but for far off distances, the game mechanics does not trigger enemy searches. so you can hit them and not have any enemy searching for you.

No updates were released that fixes this, there is a config hack:
Go here: C:\Users\Username\Documents\MOHW\settings
Find this "GstAudio.AudioQuality ", set it to 4 and save.

If you have original game there will be another folder like MOH zero day patch or something, do this there as well, and try.

Also when game freezes, alt tab multiple times. Though the config hack fixed it for me.

We can carry only one weapon? And ammo carrying capacity increases by making bags etc?

you can carry 4 weapons max but for that you need to "craft" a larger weapons holster.. Go to "crafting" and then weapons holster and get the requirement for the larger holster..

How do I unlock specials?
I have only 4 specials now in which 1 of them is repair kit :/

Relics and side missions opens the specials..

There is only one place in the game where this can be done, I forgot the mission details, but I had to go and invade a large camp and then kill a captain and get a key or map I think, then proceed towards a cave, the only details I remember is that overlooking the camp from the side of my attack was two raise sniper nests, on both sides of the road(one on each side), take the guys out below the sniper nests,, now at the bottom of the stairs of the left sniper camp was a snake, worked wonders, now go down to the lower valley from left side, another snake in a room, lure enemy using rocks in that hut.

i never encountered more than one croc at a time... that would be more logical.. crocs stay in packs.

and that luring to snakes using stone throwing is a cool technique, the best use of stones :) i used it only twice in the whole game due to snakes being so rare..

first time I came across a snake in FC3 I jumped on my chair :p, also the first time I took a swim to encounter a crock :lol:

yet to encounter crocs but got bitten by jelly fish. and i tried the snake bite at the same place as tkin said. there are 2 snakes: 1 near the sniper/overlooker's post and second one in the camp (or maybe it was the same snake).

Sitting in my office .. I just realized that the captured animals can be freed and used to take down some of the enemies :facepalm:

that will break stealth even with silenced weapons and if you try melee you will be the first one to become fresh meat.

i simply hate any medicine drop with quads. have to try the quest half a dozen times before i can complete it.

I don't do it usually, but a lot of games will show you game time when you click a save game. I checked it once after finishing F3 and FNV, just to make sure if I was sane.

I try to avoid killing tigers and animals untill its upon Jason's neck and trying to express love with its tooth and claw....I kill civilains more, they farm weed, kill each other, trust an outsider to play around in their island and solve their personal problems...moreover join forces to fight for something they dont deserve with some people they dont like, against someone they dont understand. Above all, they are more in numbers than tigers....

By the way, in Hoyt's island was this the place where Jason has to sneak past half a zilla-population of soldiers who pretended to be "blind school toppers"?...people were inidicating it was somewhat difficult? Nevermind, passed it at one go, and those bat-heads acted like they left their eyes at home and joined work...seriously? thought FC3 AI, at least would prove challenging in stealth/detection. pfft...

A 2013 game doesn't have to have an stealth Title on its back just for the sake of it, to justify lame AI in that part of the game. AI in FC3...It happened to be pretty well desgined in the rest of it. Anyway i was referring its lack because many have faced difficulties clearing that level, may be they have played in hard/hardest difficulty.

Yup they might have played it higher difficulties.

Having said that the generic behavior offered by AI in that part is actually pale compared to AI pattern at other parts, be it stealth or anything...is not consistent. We have seen other consistency issues also in FC3...games today have stealth part, for basic need of it situationally and naturally, ridiculing its implementation is no grave thing...and also it doesnt matter if its worth it or not, we are putting time in it anyway as we discus it, play it and beat it.

BTW.. the sound implementation is not that good in this game. cannot choose 7.1/hidef in audio settings, still I can get 7.1 virtual using Xonar panel, but difficult to locate animals based on sound.. still those animal hisses and barks scare the sh!t out of me :p ..

if you pickup medic packs or craft medical syringes then those will be applied first, if you don't have stock of those syringes then Jason ties in the bandage and fixing dislocated fingers etc :p

just for reference for new players.

I had a funny incident when liberating a outpost, most of them were drunk chargers, I distracted them by throwing a stone, then I proceeded to deactivate a alarm, but one guy saw me and they started charging towards me, I ran behind a shack and flanked them, I saw everyone were at the same position crouded, using a SMG I just open fire, one of the molotov cocktail exploded and those guys died instantly :lol: .. it was quite funny to see that.

Even i feel out of breath out of the game when i do that. Other sharks around see that too, and they dont act very friendly while swimming up.

animals in these game are purposefully made violent, no bear attacks a "cool dude" just by seeing him as if he ate its pie. They always are shy and avoid human contact.

Tigers! especially are so rarely visible to human, because by nature they are not man eaters except very few, they always keep away, and jason broody dint actually cancelled their pension benefit...so tigers..why so serious in FC3? I found some of em even started running at me from distance from where i actually cant see it!

I guess not, some skills are bound to be unlocked after completing a certain amount of main story. Never tried otherwise though, i kept both run in parellel...region wise, but i believe i completed enough side missions on each session to unlock every skill if that was the case but some skills still remained locked.

The same pirate mark i got once in my radar but when i reached that place driving, i found none! except two local ladies sitting on their knees on sand facing each other..heads down...and between them a tombstone was there!!! I believed those two killed that poor b****d meantine and buried him fresh! :muttering:, i felt that it was cold blooded murder, two ladies looked one wife and daughter...so it was conspiracy...:chinscratch:it also seemed they were fake mourning, so i planted a C4 right between them...and blew them sky high to pieces. that poor pirate is now RIP:pray:

you gain 1 skill point for certain amount of XP (4000 XP IIRC) , this can be gained by doing side missions alone, but for some weapon unlocks and crafting items you need to play the main story also.

I read that one can replay/reset the outposts at different difficulties, but couldn't find the option to do so. I think I can another run on the game and play it properly.

Game ending query, only people who have finished the main story have a look at the spoiler.
what did you chose during the ending ?

2. Join Citra

both have different out come. I chose friends, if I had chosen to join Cirta, I would have slit the throat of Liza and then had "coitus" with cirta and then she would have killed my character saying their baby will be the new warrior.

The tiger, just before charging you will get ready and will be stationary for a sec, charge at him instead, close gap and unload the shotgun on its face, easy kill.

And pay attention to your surroundings, leopards are stealthy, tigers are not, they are either chasing buffaloes or screaming like crazy.

Hunting Tip:

keep 3 sets of Hunter instinct and Animal Repellent before going for hunting.

when in the hunting area, use hunter instinct syringe to locate the animals.
when you want to hunt the animal, use the Animal repellent, this way the animals wont attack you , but it will still be near you to engage.

you cannot use both syringe at the same time, so take turn in first location and then killing.

Well, i have not uninstalled farcry3, but from previous experience , if you do not agree on the option "You want your save games removed too" while uninstalling...the saved games will be kept safely in your documents/my games folder...and if you reinstall it, your checkpoints will remain intact. I have done it in numerous games...i hope FC3 will have this option too.

As far as I've read, that path for save games is for pirated copies. No legal installation would have that folder.

I guess, for me, the path is D:\Program Files\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames\xxxxxxxxxxx\46\

I've more than 42 save files in that path but game will have only 3 slots - not sure which files are taking those slots.

Also I've had the issue of in-game save screen not showing correct description. Save system is broken so I let the game do auto save by going to a safe house and operating the gun cabinet. Hope I don't ever have to backup-restore save files.

enable Show Hidden folders..

yup. there is only a single relic in the cave. actually some of the relics and chest are placed so close together that you'll only notice the loot (diamond mark) and not the relics. and at least 5+ relics are placed on some isolated islands so zoom on all these islands.

I can't really stand for what she asked Jason to do at-last but good thing is the game offered us to make a fair choice and if one is not so horny can make the right decision. And seriously making out with some one after dozing him off .. that's plain mean. She must have done it with plenty of others as well to level up them into a true Warrior and one should be careful before lusting on her ;-)

talking about Citra - well, she deserves a plain kick on the arse for her maniac and superstitious behaviors. I can't really stand for what she asked Jason to do at-last but good thing is the game offered us to make a fair choice and if one is not so horny can make the right decision. And seriously making out with some one after dozing him off .. that's plain mean. She must have done it with plenty of others as well to level up them into a true Warrior and one should be careful before lusting on her ;-)

hell yeah.. citra is one twisted b**ch. she's making out with all the gamers :D :p

I have liberated Maximum outposts in stealth...:mrgreen:

Rating: Graphics 10/10

Story: 7/10
Game play 10/10


The Game Starts with Jason Brody...who is hell scared initially (the opening scene with Vaas & when Jason Escapes the mountain of Travels bags reminds me of Horror Movie Texas Chainsaw/Hills have eyes).
Every bit is entertaining...hunting,killing,stealth etc.Cut-scenes,Character Detailing :)

Ok...let me tell u all that I was wrong about in-game timer which is there actually under handbook..statistics button.
I have spent 36:14:22 in it thats 30+ hrs :-D
also in handbook I saw Moray Eel,Perch,Lizard (I dnt knw when I killed 2) & Crow (Hope u guys got them coz I've not except Lizard)

I liked Vaas pirates & their hilarious dialogues..."OMG..Tiger","Get a Job..x2 shut up b!tcH I m the Man Here...",
"It burns like a mother when I piss..shud've used a rubber..."
the pirates have a loud speaker in their vocal chords..coz u can hear them shouting from other side of the Mountain... :lol:

initially they were shouting Jason Brody..later in the game they started calling "snow white" :-o

Also the Dance Moves in the club is nice

overall an excellent game any FPS lover dnt want to miss & a must play :wink:

got both the Endings...by using the save file backup ;)

Q: did any of u continued from where it ends?coz I think there are some new side-missions also?not sure

Exactly..FC2 had some of the wild animals which can be killed but not skinning & handbook info about them....
I miss the terrain effects of FC2..of all the animals I was scared of sudden Croc Attacks,Shark attacks are also freaky

Magnum..is a revolver I guess..I unlocked it already

i read somewhere that you can kill monkey from outside the amanaki town but once you go outside, the monkeys simply vanish. tried multiple times but can't see any monkeys.

one thing more i seriously missed is the Gunslinger Takedown. Tried this a few times but just failed to perform. and also the chained takedown which i used only once in the whole game in the trial of rakyaat where you have to use melee.

yes...monkeys are not visible from outside of amanaki town & AFAIK there is no other place (except the one I told) u will kill a monkey.

Gunslinger Takedown...pardon me but is it the one in which we can kill multiple enemies using the pistol of one enemy..this looks cool in tutorial view but even I haven't got the chance to use it...
I used the other knife takedown all the time & chained takedown by killing 4 enemies (W,A,S,D)

while liberating outpost...sniper killing & changing positions rapidly is what I enjoyed most

Damn you guys are killing this game like I did with DAO and ME series. :D:D

when outpost has dogs and my stock of animal repellant syringe is empty, it becomes a really tough task.
but when the freed rabid dogs start chasing you instead (happened with me 2-3 occasion), it becomes a nightmare.

does the death from below skills require a ledge or climbable surface? in the whole game only a single privateer was taken down this way when i was in a river. the takedown button almost never appears.

When freeing caged animals, my silenced sniper seems to alert the outpost sentries right away. As if there was no silencer. :(
Bow works better.

Outpost dogs are super alert/sensitive.

In the presence of a large number of sentries, I throw stones to draw one sentry away from the rest, and phuttt, snipe them from a high spot far away. Repeat for all others:D
If only a few guys are there, its mostly stealth (more fun and time taking) similar to hitman/splinter cell. :D

If you let his friends go now, that'll be the end of it. He will not look for you, He will not pursue you. But if you don't, he will look for you, he will find you, and he will kill you.

As compared to sentries, dogs have a larger area of detection. Use stones ( one farther than the previous ) to lure them away while not disturbing the sentries. Kill them.
For each sentry or dog, use different directions for throwing the stones. Corpses also alert them.

PS: I prefer the 1500xp, or else I try again.

no need to hide bodies. alarms are activated only if you shoot a pirate and someone else saw him getting shot. this is the reason i hate dogs as there are like 4-6 dogs and shooting one dog means rest of the pack charges at you or someone saw you doing the crime. if the guards get alerted i either run to the nearest alarm and deactivate it or blow up the alarm towards which the guard was running. once done, it is wild shooting + grenade cooking all the way.

Just avoid seen by thugs and turn off the alarms to avoid any sort of backup.
Then carefully pick one guy at a time who is isolated with melee (sneak KO )

Finally finished the game i confess i am not an fps fan but man this game was fun to play...sadly didnt get any signature weapon though i was only interested in the shredder never got to 10 memory cards, kept doing outposts and radio towers in between story missions and before i knew it i got to the end. Anyway for all the noobs....
1. Molotov arrows are the best way to takeout heavy's though takedowns are also great but they work only upclose, even the z93 takes 2 shots i guess which you wont get very early in the game.
2. Mines and remote controlled bombs are fun and again good against heavy's so.... use them
3. Max out your pouches you will need them.

But i do have one very big complaint with the game...those god damn reptiles....snakes, crocs, komodo dragons really dint like that part of that game those things scared me more than any horror game ever could
Also i think more could have been done with the stealth mechanics in the game and they should also have varied the environments, everywhere you look its green grass and some trees
I am not saying its a bad game the above are just some things that could have made the game better

Well actually those reptiles and animals added more fun to game as they can make and break the game for you on multiple occasions.

i Understand what you are saying .... I am fine wih most of the animals in the game i have no problem with being killed by or using to kill with bears, leopards, tigers, buffalos etc i agree completely that it made the game fun and unpredictable. But i just cant tolerate those reptiles its only the reptiles that i had a problem with, this was made even more worse by the fact that they attacked you at random and out of nowhere and they are also very hard to detect.

Real knee or in Game ?? :D:D

Started playing this awesome game yesterday with my new PC

graphics are great! the level of details with the interactions with objects is also great.
i didnt know much about the series for the first camp capture i went in a Rambo style, failed twice and third time managed to take it down in the same way.
i'll start it from beginning and play in stealthy mode.

escaping was little scary with all that darkness and music.
nice game.

This is a brilliant game, enjoyed it thoroughly. The key to capturing outposts is disabling the alarms, once you have done that, you should be safe, but yes doing it undetected does give you a sense of satisfaction. Do capture as many outposts as possible, will help you level up and travel.

Beware of dogs. melee as much as possible. learn the patrol routes and then ambush from bushes. will help later take down heavy units.

optional: try to collect all the relics. won't be easy but gives out excellent rewards.

after like 8-10 retries, finally completed the burn the drug fields mission..
its nearly impossible to do it fully stealth :(

the trick i did was alert the guards and run to the little mountain besides the first 2 fields. the guards don't come there. I just killed one by one. there were like more than 20 guards.. o_o

Hah. Even I completed that today. Went all guns blazing in though. Was a lot of fun. I had the RPG rocket launcher and just went berserk. Can't believe I almost missed out on this game. The komodo dragons annoy me though. A lot.

there are some awesome mods. makes the game even better and makes it replay value very very high..

I have this all attachments mod which allows ALL weapons to have sight attachments,extended mags and suppressors , for example below shows the Optical Sight Attachment on Both AK-47 and the PKM. I also have the Swartz mod which brings in a lot of juice into the game, i will soon apply it, but too lazy to merge these two.

OK here are the things I did with Radeon Pro. try them and they might help

1. In Tweaks -> Vsync Always ON
2. Tripple Buffering Enabled
3. Set the Monitor Refresh rate.
4. Enable Dynamic Framerate Control
5. The Value should be 1 less than the Monitor Refresh Rate
6. Force Anti Aliasing Profile to Bioshock

In Visual Tab enabling Enhanced Application Control for AA might help, however it did more harm to me. :p
Also Bioshock Profile for AA is optional and should be fiddled around with, for me it worked but some others it didn't so do as you like.

^^Experienced the same, in a 15-20 min game-play across heavy firefights .... i checked GPU-Z very closely, found some green bars in
Perfcap reason, revealed as Pwr, at those points my GPU was under-clocking from standard boosted 849.2 to 836.1 and hence the stuttering, it got less frequent when i turned the HDAO to HBAO and set the GPU buffered frame to not more than 1...


BUT

it was still there (AA was 8X still), I finished the game and sent the laptop yesterday to store, its now identified as a GLOBAL Clevo BIOS issue, now they are discussing it in the QC section, and i'm getting pissed right here. Not sure if something similar is your scenario or not :( god forbid nothing is there as such.

It doesn't happen with other games, AC3/4, Tomb Raider, DMC.

Also tested with msi kombustor stress test, ran fine and Tomb Raider at times consumed over 2GB vRAM, so guess VRAM is fine.

Did your problem happen in other games?

PS: when playing fc3 the gpu clocks never go down.

Well if you Google then you'll easily find that FC3 had many issues in performance in early days, some of them got rectified and many didn't. CF support is one of them. I have optimized many games but this one took a lot of effort from me.
Also be sure that you are using HDAO in SSAO settings as HDAO works better for AMD cards.

dunno if it helps you or not, i played it with my setup in the signature, and it ran just fine, with >40FPS at all times. ran on high graphics setting.

Well I am talking about Ultra settings with 100% AA and everything. At that settings this game gives problems. :)

then its something else, i guess my problem is related to a stock bios for which the GPU is hitting power wall, i read it up, its all over there in notebookreview.

i played everything on ultra, it ran perfectly fine except the powercap issue, and thats because how clevo designed it with the vBIOS, it will be addressed, but its also evident that in ultra the game does behave different with every dial you move up.

Is is just me or this game is actually very easy. Its not that I am not enjoying the game or there are no heart pumping actions but still, I feel like invincible in the game. Only thing that sometimes give challenge are Tigers or Leopards if I don't see them coming. :p

BTW in one camp, the camp was well protected and there was a cage with a tiger, so I didn't do anything rather than waiting on hill and enjoying the show. A leopard came out of nowhere and attacked the camp and somehow the tiger also got free and started attacking. Well there were around 8-10 pirates in that camp so basically those predators killed everyone and got killed with just one enemy remaining. I took a sniper shot and voila, camp liberated. :D

In another incident, I was going to a camp for liberation and hadn't saved the game for some time now, I mean I had acquired some Shark Skins, Bear Skins, Deer skin, 2 relic and game wasn't saved and then a tiger came out of nowhere to attack me. I was like please don't kill me, please don't kill me. He attacked and I started mashing Spacebar and then thankfully I was carrying Shotgun so no need to change and then BAM BAM and tiger dead. The first thing I did was Skin that sucker and then save the game. :p

Guys, I have played both FarCry 3 and Blood Dragon now, completed both.

I saw a strange thing in Far Cry 3. I'm on a Core i5 midrange laptop with 1 GB AMD graphics. So, its obvious the settings were lowest to get good fps/ playability. But, no matter what Video settings I chose, some shadows were following Jason all the time... It was like the cloud's shadow but it kept following. Many other funny things were happening in the graphics.

Can anyone explain what exactly happened?

And Blood Dragon was a funny game. :D

That dude killed everyone and walked away from the camp, I was worried if the camp will be liberated or not because I shot just 2 bullet to free the tiger and thats it, camp liberated with Stealth and 1500 XP. I was like WTF, I felt that I should go and thank the tiger but then I'll have to kill him so I just let him go. :D

If you take my advice then complete the missions till you get to second island and then go hunting. Because then all the skills are unlocked, you can get any weapon you want, can do anything. You know more freedom. But before that do all the crafting of bags and all so that once you start liberating camps you get Animal Hunter quests for Rare animals and complete those crafting to full. :)

Reached the 2nd Island. Also got most of the signature weapons. Just one remaining, the signature assault rifle is pure awesome. :)

now things will get little tricky. if i remember correctly, the privatees doesn't hold any wild animals so good luck with stealth. and to make things worse, there are a number of camps alongside main road with constant patrols (both car as well as boat). use mines to blow them without blowing your cover.

if you shoot/hurt any of them by exploding fuel drums or shooting at their jeep, the whole gang turns against you. specially when liberating enemy camp, if stray fire usually lands on some drums which kill one. you got a serious problem.

This reminds me of the FC2 in which every dick and harry shoot you for no real reason as you are a neutral member there supporting no faction. Worst part, even if you clear a checkpost, you just leave the map and come back to find them all respawned and ready to pawn u again. May be they have a reason to shoot at any moving objects.

Well FC3 is much better in this regard. Rakyats don't shoot you until you shoot them, also they help you in multiple occasions but I'll just neglect that. Also camps once liberated not only are liberated after but also serves as your fast travel location unlike FC2.

AFAIK all relics are shown and i collected all while free roaming. look for islands where there is always a relic or two. only almost inaccessible relic is on a cliff near a village (Gaztown). after dying a few dozen times and throwing all sort of crazy ideas finally got it ;)

Yews I got them. They were too near the towers so were kind of invisible on the map. And about the Gaztown Relic, yes I also dies many times just to get that damn relic, had to deploy wingsuit and then parachute in very quick succession and timing to reach there.

BTW completed the game at 100%, choose the good ending to save my friends.
I just wasn't able to kill Liza at all, she was too cute for me. BTW saw the bad ending on youtube and thanked myself for my decision.

Any way to play the "Kick the Hornet's Nest" mission again? Got any save-games ? And will they work since mine are always synced with the cloud.
Just want to replay it just to listen to that awesome song while burning the fields.:mrgreen:

I already have the mp3, its mostly on repeat on my phone.
Plus i don't have a flamethrower lying around, and their ain't any marijuana fields in my area to burn :lol:

I did find some save-games on some forums, but the comments aren't convincing enough that they will work. Want to replay it without loosing my current progress.

You can take backup of your savefiles. Download those save from internet and replay that mission.After that restore your own saves.

Guys, I was playing Far Cry 3 Co-op mode some minutes ago, and just completed the Co-op game....

This game was killer!!! Suddenly, in the middle of the game, my ammo started behaving strange... I had sniper rifle first, then PKM.... It showed first 270 bullets, then on reloading, started increasing.... To 570... to 840.... then to 1103 something....

One more thing: Reloading was no more necessary as the magazine filled by itself beyond a point... I took a screenshot of it. Yes, it was unlimited ammo, without reloading.
Man, it was raining bullets!!

By the end level, one more guy got this unlimited, and he took launcher... and it was raining rockets! The end level fat guy stood no chance in front of this...

The level was redemption.

View attachment 14465

I scored 236 kills, the other launcher guy got 412 kills. And yes, before anyone asks me, its the latest version 1.05 and High Tides DLC is installed.
So, what actually happened? Is it a known bug?

And I hope Ubisoft won't ban my ID, because I didn't do anything, it was a bug.

Hey buddy, I have sent you and Manidhillon a friend request on Ubisoft... Kindly accept it.
I too love playing multiplayer, specially co op...

Recently, I am not able to join public lobby, somehow only private works for me, I guess... And whenever you plan to have a co op session, do pm me a day or so before...

Yes I accepted your request buddy, right now UBI is down otherwise would've played a match with you.
And dude we play everyday, so there is no point in sending you a PM. Add me and [MENTION=73844]gameranand[/MENTION] on steam and please buy a mic if you don't have one.

^ Lol, my comment. "3G disconnect ho gaya tha..." :D There's one company we can't have any reliance on, it is reliance. :)

The 3G disconnected automatically, and then later on I rejoined your game... It was a fun game though.


I also want a wired broadband, to protect me from unreliable 3G's and unnecessary radiations of any kind, but the only one available in my city (in my information) is BSNL. And I'm not sure what service the government owned corporation provides, when they already claim low speeds like 512 kbps, or 1 mbps or so. :(

Let me hunt down a good alternative that actually performs reliably and speedily.

Like I told you before, 3G or 4G mobile connection is never good for online gaming, first there are ping issues and then there is the disconnection problem.
Get a cheap broadband plan to play games and keep ur 3G for downloads. Ask BSNL if ur area is serverd by FTTH (Fibre), if it is then go for it.
