Welp, been troubleshooting a game security violation code 00000007 for the better part of the day, no dice. Disabled antivirus, selective startup, reinstalled on multiple drives, tried running as a different user, tried running as admin/compatibility mode, verified integrity of game cache, you name it. Reassuring that Ubisoft still has their launch day bullshit that's probably being caused by, like, an RGB keyboard.

Open task manager with ctrl+shift+esc and close weird processes like MyApp or MyColor. This is almost undoubtedly caused by RGB or mouse/keyboard software. A lot of people had the same issue with Rust until they found out it was RGB poo poo causing issues. Killing the process allowed people to finally get it working.

Yep, did that as well. I even uninstalled the extraneous stuff.

I really like this game, but there is one thing i find quite annoying: Once you started a mission there seems to be no way to fail/reset it. I made the mistake to start the bossfight in the (recommended) first region (Holland Valley). It is (mild spoiler) a dogfight with imho terrible plane controls. After trying and failing several times on easy mode (yes, i am not good at videogames) i wanted to just set it aside and do other stuff in the open world which didn't quite work out because the dramatic bossfight music kept playing and the bad guy constantly kept teasing me on my radio.

Since i see no way to have multiple save slots I was stuck there and had to start a new game and now plan to do all the open world stuff and regular story missions first and do the boss fights last. And then i noticed you can't skip the lengthy opening sequence which is not so great if you just watched it days ago.

Other than that (and some mildly annoying sound mixing issues) i love Far Cry 5.

So I already had to lower the difficulty from hard to get past the truck chase scene in the beginning. I didn't want to waste what little time I had tonight by trying it for the 6th time.

yeah what the gently caress, like its just random chance you die on hard in the chase scene in the car.

gently caress this Ill turn it back on hard after this scene, its literally RNG on hard mode.

I'm on a PS4 pro, and the audio is weirdly delayed. I'll shoot my gun and dude's down on the ground dead before the gunshot sound plays.

Ain't my TV, since it's never happened before, but it's kinda pissing me off.

Game is good, shot the pilot out of a helicopter with my pistol. Thing just took a mean spin and crashed into an inferno. The guns feel really good so far, the bow is brutal looking when it make contact. I liked the detail of the deer running for a while after I arrowed him, had to chase him down a bit till he fell over. Looks pretty good also.

I now, my copy arrived on saturday.
And I still only managed to play like 3 hours or something like that :waycool:

EDIT: by the way, is there a way to speed up the time? It's night at the moment and I'm stumbling around in the dark like an idiot. I need a phantom cigar.

It's there. Just did it. Sprint seems a little weirder in this game. It is both 'tap to toggle' and 'hold to run/release to stop', seemingly depending on how long you press the key to start it.

yeah I really like the way the sprint works. It's hard to get used to at first but it gives you way more control. Solves the 'release w and stop briefly to cancel sprint when using toggle' thing.

Anyone playing on Xbox and think the aiming feels way off, like maybe there is acceleration or something? Also the auto-aim feels like it is non-existent, had a really hard time hitting anything even in the intro sequence. Didn't have this problem with Far Cry 4.

Just cleared the first island. Game runs well, 30-40 FPS, on ultra settings on a GTX 960 and looks beautiful. The AI companions seem to hold their own in combat but I haven't seen much action yet. They seem to be able to sneak, at least from a distance. Hopefully they don't break your concealment too readily.

Early minor dialogue spoiler:
I cracked up when, while climbing the radio tower, Dutch called and said "Don't worry, I won't be having you climb towers all over the area."

This game is really fun and has a lot of fun dynamic moments. Gunplay is great, companions are a lot more fun and interesting than i thought, and there are still plenty of silly moments with regards to physics.

I'm not sure what happened but I completed a mission and suddenly auto-aim works and it's really strong. The aiming still feels "off" somehow but at least I can hit enemies now.

I like the game a lot so far! Some of the story missions are awesome set pieces. I do wish ammo was cheaper and animals weren’t such insane bullet sponges. Maybe it’s a difficulty setting thing, but they take multiple clips to kill.

As a pro video game player I beat this tutorial mission on hard (after like 5 tries lmao what a bad sequence)

E: also, picking up a weapon only keeps it unlocked if you’re at a resistance level where you could’ve purchased it. Don’t be like me and lose your 50 cal :(

It seems like you can just go back to a. Checkpoint.


Also enemy spawns are absurd. I’ll be standing somewhere and notice a cultist popped up and is about to execute someone like five feet from where I’ve been This whole time. And fighting near a road automatically turns into this insane melee slash cultist car pile up.

In the weapons wheel there is a button for Utilities. To throw melee weapons, it's like Dead Island/Dying Light: have it in hand and then press the aim button.

Took out two dudes by throwing a branch at one and smashing my bat into the other dudes face. So fun.
