Far Cry®

As for the single player, I only played a few levels. My friends and I really just played the game's multiplayer, and I liked it well enough. My biggest draw to Far Cry has always been the tropical island setting and its great graphics. (See below.) I know some people were complaining on here about the insane AI that can see and shoot through walls like nothing. This is actually a bug that was introduced in the final official patch (1.4). However, if you want to fix that and other bugs, to add some nice features to the game and improve the graphics even beyond the highest settings, then you simply must try the FCAM mod by Garcry. (Just do a google search for it.) It adds widescreen support, the 64-bit graphics content, and the AGM mod for improved graphics. It is a must-have for Far Cry. You won't regret it.

The first half of this game is amazing. The amount of freedom which you can pursue your goal is great. the control is tight, the guns have a nice punch to it, and challenge that encourages clever, 1-against-100 tactics. The second half is not as great, newer enemies make the game more frustrating. But overall this game comes highly recommended.

wow....2018 and i am finally playing FARCRY!!! first-off i must say cryteam did an amazing job with the visuals, i mean the game world is beautiful and you can see pretty far-off into the distance, it almost tricks me into thinking that my crappy single-core processor running @ 1.60ghz 2gbRAM and a integrated ATI 3200 video card is better than it actually is, the game looks really good and runs very smooth on my low-spec system. a very good FPS-game with lottsa action and gunplay!!! includes a level-editor so you can make your own levels. now for the bad or should i say the disapointing? this game is WAY TOO HARD on the easy difficulty setting, easy should be just-that EASY!!!! but the NPC's in this game will take you down real fast...on easy difficulty they are TOO accurate with their weapons, inflict TOO-MUCH damage and it can take a few shots to put them down, i mean COME-ON cryteam..would it have been so hard to give us a ONE-SHOT kill? here is how it should go...player sees bad-guy, player shoots bad-guy ONCE, bad-guy goes down, that's one way to handle EASY difficulty. also how-come there are no female baddies? all the enemies are guys, i like a little YIN-IN-MY-YANG in these type of games and it would have been nice to have some female enemies trying to fill me full of holes also. one more thing bothers me...no BOTS present in multiplayer, WTF??? why wouldn't they just include some? kindof standard with these types of games in this day and age but i guess cryteam didn't get the memo on that one. ok i am done complaining, bottom line is that it's a great game that shouldn't be missed if you have a low-end PC like me, and after you beat the game the included level-editor will keep you busy for a while, does anyone know any good youtube tutorial videos that will help me learn to use this thing?

I have recently finished this GOG version and its as good as I remember it being not long after release. Its not perfect but still fun. I had to change a setting in a file to get rid of a five minute not responding bug on loading screens but once done I had no problems playing the game, I found the fix on the GOG forum.

With the Far Cry franchise increasingly burdened with RPG elements and politics, it's refreshing to revisit the original game that set the standard for realistic open-world first-person shooters. Bright, colorful, and challenging to say the least. Huge selection of locations, vehicles, and weapons. Play on the easiest difficulty if necessary because, even then, it'll rough you up plenty along the way. Any graphics solution from the past 10 years will be able to play it at 1080p with high frame rates. A straight-up and challenging FPS for only $10 US. Hard to beat that.
