BurritoJustice posted:Yeah, the timer seems to reset when you reload the game. They also stack when they shouldn't, so you should just go to the cantina and unlock one, fast travel away and back so it sticks, and repeat until you have all of them. Do you really get all the boosts? It seems to me that the icon in the cantina is bugged and you can "select" all the different foods but if you look inside the main UI you will only see a single meal being active no matter how many icons are selected in the cantina.

The game has an option to disable those obnoxious zone transition messages. Nice. Except that it still fades out the HUD on transitioning, it just hides the location text. loving Ubisoft.

Also, holy crap, whatever performance issues (the copy protection in) Far Cry 6 is causing here, that oil rig in the north west, everything is like 20x worse there. And I don't think the game doesn't really make proper use of RAM, anyway. Maybe this is related to random bad textures? Game's using 2.7GB of RAM right now.

I'll have to try to resist abusing the buff stacking bug since the game is easy enough as it is. I'm happy with just having the extra gadgets but it sounds like I may also have the defense buff on from earlier. Speaking of bugs, the NPC who hosts the cock fights seems to have disappeared from my game. Perhaps PETA took him out. I don't really care as I already have the trophy and probably would never have touched it again anyway.

ZombyDog posted:MG42 just doesn't feel as awesome as in previous games, but I kept mine modded for explosive rounds for dealing with choppers - that is until I learned about EMP rounds. The 1911 was my go to headpopper when I wanted to be all stealthy sneaky like. I just want all tht guns, but yea I've modded the m60 with blast rounds for choppers and planes because unless they're really close and low, the blooper and bow is hard to hit with. And oh God the location transitions are annoying as gently caress, especially when you're on the boarder of two zones and it's constantly giving you the message.

Yeah I have like, run speed, more stamina, and just some basic all around defense and I haven't felt any need to change anything in many hours of gameplay. As you say, game is easy enough as is.

i must compose posted:I bought this stupidly and am gonna start playing tomorrow. Far cry is stupid easy what can I do to make it harder? Turn off the enemy highlights? Turn off the HUD? People on reddit say things but it's Reddit so I don't know what to believe. Also is it worth listening to the radio or should I just blast my own music (take me baby by Jimi tenor) I left all highlights off, yeah. You can use weaker guns, that would be a big handicap. And I suppose you could also keep your original clothing on which brings no benefits. Don't play with any amigos. It sucks that there isn't just a hard mode because handicapping yourself mostly involves just refusing to engage with certain elements of the game. That's not optimal but it will work.

Yea, I was talking to my buddy at Ubisoft and i mentioned the complaints I've been seeing here, and he said that the spawning thing is being looked at. I literally died in a mission when one of the SpecOps Hummers spawned right on top of me. Having the rooster as an amigo is hilarious because Dani is always acting scared around it. Also I always loved how Far Cry games have never be afraid to have legit supernatual stuff going on. I found a spooky house, but no aliens yet.

Hilarious to discover that the HUD disappearing bug I've been experiencing is tied to the region announcements I had disabled. Ubisoft always do a great job with HUD customisation, but there's always these sorts of issues too. Another thing I'd like to disable is the tutorials popup, but for some reason the indicator that tells you whether the vehicle you're in has been collected is classed as a tutorial. If you turn them off, you get nothing.

It does baffle me that the zone change thing taking your hud away got to retail. How did the testers not break down some devs door over this nonsense? Who the gently caress thought it was a good idea to cover up YOUR MAP during a situation that by definition only happens when YOU'RE TRAVELING?

Does anyone else have a hyperactive right-click button whenever you're trying to set waypoints on the map? I have the click on the icons at least 3-4 times to get the waypoints to stick.

I'm getting bad stutters or fps drops when driving, especially with RTX on. Is there any fix for this? Is driving a really big thing other than getting from one place to another? I don't want RTX off, it looks good.

I'm having similar issues. I'm blaming their copy protection. Every other games works just fine, including FC5 and New Dawn. So this should just as well.

RTX shadows honestly don't look that great in this game, I'd switch those off for the baked-in lighting. Reflections can stay though.

There is next to zero difference between RTX on and off for 99% of the scenes in this game. Only rarely, when there's puddles on the ground after a rain, do the reflections get slightly better. It's a very small difference though. The shadows are the same both on and off, just ever so slightly softer with RT on, and only when it comes to sun shadows. There are parts where the shadows actually degrade in quality with RT on though. It's such a laughably bad implementation.

I wouldn't say that exactly, ray-traced reflections look quite nice on the surface of vehicles, glass, metallic objects, and mirrored surfaces, which end up comprising a lot of the game. I agree that shadows are barely noticeable and rather grainy looking though.

The ray traced shadows and reflections offer very little benefit for the performance hit and the AMD DLSS equivalent is terrible (at least on my Nvidia card at an ultrawide resolution - maybe AMD cards handle it better?). The latter makes everything noticeably fuzzy for next to no performance increase at any setting. I'd recommend switching a few of the other settings from ultra to high too, as there's not any noticeable change for stuff like terrain and you'll gain a few FPS.

This game looks like rear end on the PS5. Constant screen tearing and there's audio glitches and graphical glitches. Why has this Far Cry game not thrown hundreds of weapons at me? All these weapons are so samey and it's been a while since I've gotten a resolver weapon or a supremo that would be better than the double jump jetpack

It doesn't just throw the weapons at you, it throws them at you quickly You'll have everything you'll ever need before you leave the first mainland area. This is the worst game design i've seen in a long time, certainly the worst designed far cry game. Even worse than the respawning checkpoints of 2 and forced kidnapping of 5. They have removed any real progression from the game. I assume this was some suit telling them to make the ultimate accessible game so it can't have actual challenge or progression gating with the idea that you can have fun 'playing your way!!!!' only the environment and map design don't really let you do anything. So you just kinda collect weapons and RESOLVER equipment like pogs in the first 3 hours of the game and then never use 90% of them because why bother? Environmental interactivity has seemingly gone backwards. Fences, AA guns and some trees can be destroyed. Such a dead static world. It's weird that we got games like Mercenaries and Red faction: Guerrilla and have been going backwards ever since in terms of affecting environments. This game is distilled modern ubisoft. This game is SO. loving. BAD. Regarde Aduck fucked around with this message at 16:56 on Oct 24, 2021 |
