I'm a bit confused on the co-op stuff with this. From what I read, only one player will get progress in their game, although the other player's character somehow gets some progress? But maybe not mission rewards?

I'm really close to preordering, but no knife? Am I supposed to just chain carotid chokes/necksnaps? Chain-murdering patrols was one of the most fun things in FC3/4/Blood Dragon. ![]() Also, how are they gonna gently caress you over for playing in the water features? I grew up in Montana, ain't no poisonous/fanged lizards around, and the trout and such aren't gonna suddenly franzy and shred anything bigger than a bug.

I was a little worried so I checked out an outpost stealth takedown+bow video on YouTube and it looked pretty much like every other Far Cry game so I'm satisfied that I'll be getting what I expect and what has been cut isn't changing the fundamentals of the game.

As long as it still has the super cool grab + throw take down chain I'm not honestly annoyed or anything, it just seems like an odd choice to have to justify.

Clearing outposts with nothing but a bow and arrow is the only reason I play these games. There are plenty of other FPS games with a bow and arrow but for some reason none of them are as satisfying as Far Cry. Kind of fine with this game being mostly identical to the other entries as long as they get that part right, and getting rid of the tedious stuff like tower climbing is a nice bonus.

I’m the deputy using bear to maul people and dropping molotovs but avoiding knives to not be brutal as a government representative.

I'm a bit tired of the Ubi formula by this point but let's see. If it's fun to shoot crazy rednecks in the face with big guns that's pretty much good enough for me.

It really bugs me how a lot of the gun models are from 4, which were also from 3. In fact most of what Ive seen looks fairly identical to those and Id kind of had enough half way through 4. They should totally do a new Far Cry Instincts game

Xander77 posted:You get to choose your character, so I imagine the protagonist will (somehow) have even less personality than AJ. personally I find that a good thing, reminds me of FC 2 which is still in many ways my favorite even though it is jankier than the other games. to me the main appeal in these games is taking out outposts and exploring, most of the actual characters are kind of annoying (outside of Blood Dragon) and their personalities are best kept to a minimum

It was so oppressive and grim. Exploring for diamonds made purchases have some weight, too, since I couldn’t go grind cash.

Yes? I've deliberately been avoiding info about this game - do I get a dog or not? Do I get a bear?! Can I ride the bear?? CAN MY DOG RIDE THE BEAR?!?!
