About This Game

Far Cry 3 is an open world first-person shooter set on an island unlike any other. A place where heavily armed warlords traffic in slaves. Where outsiders are hunted for ransom. And as you embark on a desperate quest to rescue your friends, you realize that the only way to escape this darkness… is to embrace it

Key Features:

AN OPEN WORLD FIRST-PERSON SHOOTER

Create your own FPS adventure. Customize your weapons, your skills and your approach to each mission, whether you favor intense run-and-gun action, stealthy close-up takedowns or long-range sniping.

AN ISLAND OF DANGER AND DISCOVERY

Explore a diverse island playground, from mountain ranges and swampy grasslands to white sandy beaches. Discover relics, hunt exotic animals, play mini-games and travel quickly by land, sea or air. Fight your way through the island’s towns, temples, river ports and more!

UNCOVER A MEMORABLE STORY AND AN INSANE CAST OF CHARACTERS

Encounter an engaging and disturbed cast of characters as you take a gritty journey to the dark side of humanity, written by a Writers Guild Award winner.

PLAY WITH FRIENDS IN A FULL CO-OP CAMPAIGN

A DIFFERENT BREED OF MULTIPLAYER

This game may be outdated to some, but it still has amazing elements, such as an open world enviroment and real life hunting enviroments. You really have to take in the enviroment and game to appreciate it. Far Cry 3 is extremely gorgeous for it's time. Real life elements makes the game 10x times better. My rating of it, is a 75/100. I loved Far Cry 3.

I remember playing this on Xbox 360 (didn't have a computer) a few weeks after it first came out, and oh my... I have never enjoyed a single-player game that much before. Far Cry 3 has everything. I honestly can't point out something I don't like, it's just amazing. You can do so much cool stuff. One of my favorite things to do in the game is taking over those pirate camps, and I love how it's so many of them. I highly recommend this game.

Maybe it's a bit too similar to Assassin's Creed for the mechanics, but it's still a gorgeous and super-fun adventure!

Pros: I was interested in the story as the first part of the plot revealed itself. I wanted to take on the villains as the game wanted me to.

Cons: Uplay and Steam can't figure out who is running the program when I first install it, requiring Uplay to be closed and reopened in order to run. Annoyed that the borderless window mode cannot be minimized, which resulted in a pain point as I configured my gamepad. Not enough checkpoints in the tutorial; Mess up a less and go back 2 or 3 lessons. Game crashes at maybe the halfway mark of the tutorial and I have to therefore start the entire tutorial mission over again; That is, the checkpoints don't even save so continuing... Isn't.

Bottom Line: Too many pain points too early on making for a poor first impression. Maybe you'll have better luck than me? Who knows. I don't recommend you put money down to find out. Avoid.

Great game, but allies are a bit ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, They all look alike with really stupid and repetive voices. I love killing enemies in garrisons. really fun mission's. Buy it. Uplay isint that bad. Just have decent hardware on your pc.
Im using a i7 6700k processor with a geforce gtx 960 and i get about 40 fps to 30 fps. Buy it
