nemesis_hub posted:I haven’t played *any* of the Far Cry games, and the summer Steam sale seems like a good opportunity. Which games in the series are essential for a newcomer? 4 is The Best. Primal is an interesting twist on the formula. 3 is the one that started the new-style and is solid but slightly dated. 5 is technically competent but beginning to feel stale.

So it looks like a standard serving of Ubisoft Game, with ults and 15% more microtransactions?

As far as I'm concerned a 1-month subscription is the sale. I'm very unlikely to play it for more than a month.

I ruthlessly disable every depth-of-field motion-blur chromatic-aberration film-grain vignetting option I can lay my hands on, and it really pisses me off when it won't let me. My eyes are poo poo enough already in real life, why should I want to add all the flaws of a lensed camera on top?

OK this intro really isn't making sense. They're conscripting workers... except even when people co-operate they just shoot them anyway? What is this supposed to accomplish?

DogsInSpace! posted:I’m a complete dumbass and just now figured out how throwing weapons work tied to the backpack. I though the LB and RB was the only way to use it. I am slow sometimes and should stop smoking weed. I’ll look for that backpack. I’m getting more into this but this newbie island is loooooong. Wish I could just not wear a helmet but the game probably knows I need to irl and is trying to help. There is a 'hide helmet' option. Is it worth fitting out a LMG with blast rounds for antivehicle/antiaircraft duty, or should I give it AP rounds like everything else?

You need some way of taking care of helicopters. That could be a machinegun. The crossbow is effective, but you can't recover the harpoons meaning it has limited ammo. Note that buying a Supremo backpack will also unlock a unique grenade type. Molotov for the rocket backpack, EMP for the emp backpack, etc.

Once you get your first Industrial Circuits bows are just obsolete. Anything they can do, a battle rifle can do better.

What ammo do people favour for shotguns? The "shotgun shells" one that appears to be slugs apparently reduces damage by a ton? Should I install Buckshot, and how does that differ from the basic ammo?

Ranks add new stuff to shops, not sure if they do anything else. Remember that mods are shared within a category. If you've built a rifle silencer then you can put it on as many rifles as you like, but will need a seperate shotgun silencer.

When Dani says you can't shoot this alarm what they mean is that you need to use armor-piercing bullets.

You get people out of a tank by emping it then climbing on top and hitting 'hijack'.

Given that these are WW2 tanks you should be able to disable them with a well-placed molotov, but that does not appear to be implemented.

The cantina lets you trade meat for buffs. The tunnel network gives you a bunch of fast-travel points. Side benefit is getting all the security systems on military bases marked for you. The garrison and barracks are shops. Side benefits are that the garrison means random blues in the region will be better armed, barracks gives a bonus to your bandidos operations.

Annoyingly short range though. On the plus side you can often reuse the chopper.

Play posted:Sometimes that does the job, but it often ends up getting hot eventually and then I often bring out my favorite weapon: the resolver hand shotgun with shield. I think it's called El Muro maybe. That thing owns because enemies literally cannot hurt you if you are facing them aimed. Do you favour shot or slugs?

Use a bow or machete to get undamaged meat. Or build and upgrade the hunting camp to get 2 undamaged meat per kill regardless of what weapon you used.

Pelts do not exist. Some types of meat and fish can be cooked for a buff lasting 1-6 hours depending on cantina level. Only one buff can be active at a time.

Captain Duvel posted:You have to jump on top of it and gives you the option, R3. Very short window imo and most the time it doesn't seem to pop up for me You have to be looking directly at the drivers hatch. There are two options. One hijacks the tank, one blows it up.

You should have a mission to go talk to each of the groups. Finishing the first mission in each chain unlocks that camp.
