Coverage includes ps4, xbox one, pc, xbox 360, Wii, Wiiu, Switch, and digital storefronts like Steam, as well as companies like Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo

ACG got nearly double the views on IGN and quintuple the views on GameSpot within the first 2 hours...are people finally seeing the light
Good, I only watch IGN reviews just to have a laugh.
to be fair, most people probably just go to igns website for the review.
ACG speaks the truth. He never gets it wrong.
Still disappointed on them not reviewing the kingdom hearts 3.
@@Jbucher1992 Found the employee of IGN, go pedal your lies & bias reviews elsewhere.
In a world with limited antibiotics, piercings and tattoos are always a good idea.
I know right.
Piercings and tattoos have been around a lot longer than antibiotics lol
@@DMKA94 Doesn't mean they were a good idea back then either.
Raw crushed garlic is still a powerful antibiotic to this day. Alcohol or steam are still the best way to sterilize....
Haha yeah, not the best idea
Gamers: hey Ubisoft stop making assassins creed games every year.
Ubisoft: ok
*Starts making far cry games every year.
Gamers: dammit Ubisoft
Iattacku so true lol it’s sad i miss the days of far cry 1-3
Granted this is a story expansion.
Ubisoft has left the chat
Just make 1 game in 2/3 years. And make it great.
I actually enjoy that they make so much ac games
This guy actually plays and enjoys the game. Then gives a very detailed review. Perfect review
it's time for Far Cry to take a break.
Yeah, FC4 was a snore fest, FC Primal was extremely lame and I didn't even try FC5 and I'm not going to. Nothing new, same old shyte. FC2 and FC3 were the best in my opinion as FC2 was a huge improvement on FC and FC3 was a bigger improvement still. They stuck with the FC3 formula since 2012 now and it's getting boring.
Yasha I thought you were going to say it’s time to Dual lol
I would love a Far Cry: Secundar, a story during the building of pyramids, but survival type, and not COD type. However, I would welcome more a different game, like Far Cry rpg type in outer space. They could totally make it, but hard to say how successfull they would be.
It was time for Far Cry to take a break after FC 3. That was the last time the game has truly changed. From FC 1's cheesy dialogue and terrible shooting to roaming through Africa fighting against bush fires and malaria in FC 2 with its degrading weapons to the excellent FC 3 with its great villain, cool gun play, and - for the time - more or less innovative open world gameplay. The problem was when they simply repeated the FC 3 formula in FC 4...and then in FC 5...and now FC ND. But they made all those things that weren't super fun about FC 3 (the grindy aspect) even more irritating over the years. There's barely anything new here. You could recreate those games in the FC 3 engine with some modding and have a similar experience. And, well, then there was FC P...which was basically the same again, only without actually understandable voice acting and without guns. It's just like AC and any other Ubisoft game...stick to the same formula and wait till people are so fed up with your rehashed content that you basically HAVE to do something different the next time. But AC is already back on track to being the repetitive thing it was before...just now with different mechanics.
@@SkySoFew It is for us. But a yearly release means they cannot create a great game. FC3 took almost 4 years to develop
Bullet sponges shouldn't exist in a somewhat realistic shooting game. Totally kills the immersion having to put 100s of rounds in a dude head and only have taken down a quarter of his health.
Precisely why I dont like rpg leveling mechanics
Oh tf is an open world arcade shooter >somewhat realistic?
Do you mean because these are humans firing mostly modern guns?
don't you know nuclear fallout give you bullet to the face powers?
Far cry has never been realistic.. far cry 2 is the only game that has come close to that. Rest are Michael Bay fest
@@SkySoFew there is immersion and there is realism. bullet sponges break both. and yes, some people play games for realism.
You are such a genuinely honest dude. You go beyond to instill non-biased values in your content, and show us up front as such. Respect.
my thanks
AGAIN, Joseph himself didn’t nuke Hopy County. He literally foresaw the end of the world. I see very many reviewers getting that wrong, and i don’t know where they’re getting it from.
Agreed they didn't really take the time to understand the story you kept getting hints throughout the game people kept telling you ."have you ever considered that Joseph seed may be right" and it turns out in the end he was right the apocalypse was coming he didn't cause it.
That makes me wonder, who nuked the US?
@@pugpolice4323 probably North Korea
Pugpolice, good question. I assume there was a gigantic nuclear war, considering the whole world ended. But who started it is hard to say.
Pugpolice You can hear news on the radio, and based on that I'm guessing Russia.
Ubisoft games are designed to be completely unoffensive. That's why all the stories are so lame.
probably why the far cry 2 writer left them.
All games are designed to be inoffensive doofus... but hopping on a hate train sure is fun. Hell far cry 5 had more controversial subject material than just about any game in recent memory
And who do you them to offend. Hmm let me guess.
And in the process their games are an offensive to anyone with a brain and gaming as a whole.
I dunno, it is kinda worrying they seem to want to convince their audience nuclear war is no big deal.
Never Touch
3 big problems;
1. Its an apocalypse with no apocalyptic landscape.
2. Damage number Bullet sponges in FarCry?
3. Its another FarCry game which strays from FarCry 3s godly light.
But but but it's got nice pink bits!
there was nothing godly about FarCry 3
The irony is that it's a carbon copy of farcry 3 which came out a decade ago.
Far Cry 3 is not godly by any means
There was literally no driving force in the story and the two main villains were bitchy pirates
College kids sky dive into lands they shouldn’t tread and one of them just so happens to be some Rambo pumped hardass with an itch to kill?
Please
What is so good about Far Cry 3? Everyone says Vaas is the best, but you kill Vaas a little over a third of the way through the story. People don’t even remember Hoyt really. Citra is fine, but does not really show how she is a warrior, despite being leader of the Rakyat. It was a game that had you climbing radio towers, which was boring then as it was in Far Cry 4. The map was not really that great in terms of exploration, partly because it was divided through the center. It is island, with a few ruins and shack towns. The only reason Far Cry 3 gets praise is because of its story and its UI/upgrade systems.
Ubisoft sure love to milk their IPs. I'm surprised there aren't 5 new For Honors released with 3 DLCs each.
Because they dont really "milk" there IPs. They just produce content which is debately good or bad. Like the only series that could be called milked that ubisoft owns in AC[which they've completely redone] and far cry. Everything else is pretty fucking nice. If you still wanna be on the diminishing hate on ubisoft hate train then go ahead though I can't really stop you
@@foxt.5043 I really liked Child of light from them, but that's it, they've been pretty average on their releases otherwise :/
For Honor is really good tough , people just like to hate it because of its shitty launch but now the game is fantastic
@@maskedvalerian1095 I dont even know what child of light is. That must be one of there lesser known games? I kind of disagree. I liked for honor, siege, origins, oddysey, and division quite a bit. Less siege though. I haven't played far cry before it always looked kind of boring to me.
@@foxt.5043 Yep, turn based RPG, really underrated. Oddysey is decent but have to say Ubisoft is mediocrity otherwise.
Never touch for me. Thanks for the review!
Same. Exodus is coming out tomorrow for chrissake. I ain't got time for this mediocre shite.
@@Jesse__H Ikr Can't wait for exodus
I'm gonna buy it, but i respect your opinion.
Im buying it and metro exodux for xbox, far cry primal was the best then far cry 3 was 2nd best gamr in the trilogy
Ill pick it up but for a 10ner
These games are so hollow and soulless
Just feels like Far Cry is dead, Primal was the only unique one that may be the best Stone Age game ever made idk.. I really enjoyed it and as did Karak
I miss the days of FC 2
All Ubisoft games are like that now.
@@thechannelthatactuallydoes2866 primal was ass
We need to maximise market penetration and turn the players into payers. Substance and soul gets in the way of all that, friendo. Praise be to divine shareholders, may they reign eternal!
I knew the game would be reviewed as a "meh", but for some reason, I love the far cry worlds to lose myself in for a few hours.
buy far cry 3 for about a fiver then and lose yourself whilst saving 15 notes at the same time.
I don't like the whole bullet spongey "RPG" thing that Ubisoft has been doing. It's just a bullshit excuse to make their games more grindy so that they can essentially bully the player into buying microtransactions. It's a shame because I actually liked Far Cry 5 and was sort of looking forward to this.
Played a bit of farcry 5 because I heard everyone saying it was different than all the other ones. Ha what a fucking Joke go to generic base #452 kill everyone there base liberated. Rince and repeat its like I'm fucking working when I play a Ubisoft game.
Hit the nail on the head there, friend.
Hey bitch, microtransactions are optional, call of duty is the only company that bullies and forces you to buy the microtransactions, everyone else calls it optional!!!
OP is on point. Except about the FC5 thing, story was shyte imo. The only way to win? Don’t play the game.
@@SkySoFew did you not play or hear about Assassins Creed Odyssey? Or Origins? W/e the newest one is
2 game reviews in a day?? Man, you are on the roll!
His valentine's to us
Now only if he actually finished the games he reviewed
That is exactly what I said as I was getting into the car today - I was jesus man, take a rest!
These reviews have both probably been ready for a number of days and were both released after the review embargo was lifted.
Not that it isn’t an incredible effort nonetheless.
2 big games releasing same day not a challenge for him
I keep avoiding purchasing these titles because the differences are so minor and changes so incremental. Hmmm... Might just go for Rage 2 instead.
Im on the fence for new dawn, but holy shit if its new dawn or rage 2 for you, RAGE 2 ALL THE WAY NO CONTEST. You can tell itll be similar to doom, a tier above new dawn
Same
I might sound Cynical but I dont have any faith in Rage 2. If it's good it will be a surprise but I'm not holding my breath.
Metro Exodus comes out the same day as Far Cry New Dawn, the 15th, that’s tomorrow. No competition I’ll be getting Metro and it’s clearly the better post apocalyptic game. I Loved Metro 2033 and Last Light, I’m really looking forward to playing Exodus.
@@danielhoward2325 Yeah sorry bud once you've run down a linear hall and shoot at bad guys from 2004-2014 you get so fucking bored of that shit you can't play it ever again.
Mate, you're going crazy! 2 long high quality reviews in just a couple of days. Good work on both
I don't care what others say but this is my favorite Far Cry of all time, spent 68 hours on this and haven't even made progress to other areas. Just mesmerized by the graphics, setting and all sorts of things. They actually fix the problem when an outpost is cleared and there are no enemies left to deal with by incorporating some grinding elements so the world is not that barren like the previous Far Cry. Overall 9.5/10 from me
is it because you like the color pink *that* much or...?
@@xman777b No, it just feels different and i like the outpost system
I only played around 10 hours of far cry 5 before i was bored to death so i definately wont be buying this one.
agree
Cool story bro
@@stevenewsom3269 Are you upset somebody doesn't like your game?
DITTO! The FC games have become a prime example of how NOT to do Open World games.
Why does it feel like such a chore to complete Ubisoft games these days? I never felt this during AC 1-4 or FC 2-3 (only FC games I've played)
Seems like something that should have been released with the Season Pass. Then again, this is TRUE DLC, content made after the launch of the game, whereas, the Season Pass DLC was on the disk waiting behind a pay wall. Kind of funny how that works now a days huh.
Haha don't forget the Microtransactions for this DLC single player game
FC5 was the first game i ever bought a season pass for.. Dont think I'll ever do it again. If this was in it, i probably woulda been satisfied tho.
Needless to say.. I'm definitely not spending 40 more dollars for something that shoulda been included.
@@lifeimitatingdeath3608 should have been included in what you fucking moron? Do You people not realize that it cost money to make this shit like millions of dollars and you're mad because they didn't include 100 or more dollars worth of video game on a $60 disc.
@@davidmcguire6043 You find it acceptable that someone pays over 100$ for a game that is has copies about 70% of the core mechanics of a game released 8 years ago, then they release a reskin of the same map with different textures, hardly good character writing and charge 50$ for it again AND add microtransactions?
Joseph didn't nuke anything in FC5. World war broke out.
I actually got ending without the Nuke. My ending had me driving off just to have that possession song come over the radio, which, obviously, had me kill everyone in the car, I assume.
Yep, he was right all along and the koreans sent the first nuke. It's part of the story yet very few people picked up on it
Daniel DeVito Pretty sure the Nuke still happens though, you just don’t see it in that ending
Why is nobody talking about these greedy micro-transactions? They went Full EA with this game.
Hey even Battlefield 5 from EA has all maps and weapon DLC completely free Ubisoft charges for DLC season pass and puts consemtic Microtransactions for a mainly single player game.
It’s really easy to unlock the content though.
Just use a trainer and you're golden
They went full ea with AC odyssey already
Wasn't planning on buying this but top tier review as always
Not many people will buy it, guarantee.
A literal reskin of the last game which in itself was a rehash of their last 5 games. Christ
Austin J farcry 3 was amazing and felt new enough from farcry 2. Farcry 4cand 5 was a complete rehash it was retarded. Get a new engine, new animations conplwtely, a good character with dialogue, new mechanics.
These are the kind of idiots we have to put up with.
@@custardgannet4836 literally reuses fc5s map same thing they pulled with far cry primal, Ubisoft uses the taco Bell approach when it comes to their games
@@johnmarstonlives Why are you doing this sir? Why are you so mad at me?
@@custardgannet4836 because it looks like you're defending Ubisoft for releasing the same game for 10 years. It's worse than fucking call of duty was.
I love that your channel is blowing up man. If anyone deserves it it's you, you consistently have the best reviews.
My biggest frustration with the original FC5 is that the game would never leave you alone. If you're out in the wilderness in a quiet area for more than five seconds, enemies will spawn nearby (either they'll drive past, or an enemy aircraft will randomly appear overhead and will somehow manage to always see you no matter how dense the cover around you). I felt that was the weakest part of the original game. Has that been addressed/tweaked at all in New Dawn?
YES.That seems to be reduced a lot..but some lone bastard keeps stealing my vehicles!
When I go 50 metres from it, I know it's a freindly Npc most the time.
Seem to get more wild animal attacks than patrolling soldiers. In farcry 5 would get lots of attention after destroying a vehicle at an intersection and end up with 10 burnt out vehicles blocking the road in the next 10 minutes. Annoying it is. Uses all your ammo when your on your way to do something else.
They reduced this in new dawn. Allrhiugh I only played 3-4 hours so far.
So far there I seem to see soldiers roaming, before they see me (except for wild animal surprises which are sudden) less road patrols, road presence is mainly random fuel/prisoner transports.
it does happen
Was literally about to search your review of this game and here it comes thanks
Excellent review as always! An thanks for saving me some money! I won't be picking this up any time soon.
You have a wonderful way with words when it comes to describing things.
Yes ACG!!! Was hoping you’d review this game for us! Your reviews are my favorite!!
This is a FC expansion taking place in the same map. Why are there so many people who don't get that?
Not too thrilled about all the neon and pink. And lamest villains of all time.
Jon I am not sure what’s going on with is it to deal with Mad Max
Not too thrilled about playing the exact same game for 8 straight years either.
conkerlive101 I liked Far cry 5 but I think the next Far Cry game should of been four or five years in development look at Far Cry 3 for example that game took awhile to make and Vas was amazing
@@mitchell3725 you can have a great villain but if your gameplay is just as generic as always the games gonna suck. Farcry 3 was amazing because it was unique and never been done before but they haven't changed that formula once in 8 years.
Joseph isnt the villain in this one though. I hope not at least.
Thanks all
Would love it if you could come by our discord and talk to the best damned community ever. Or Just help ACG keep going!

Good review, but how people can be ok with going to generic base#452 and liberating for the rebels for 8 straight years is beyond me. I played 3 and loved it then I played farcry 4 and had to push myself to finish it because it's the EXACT SAME GAME. I've never made that mistake again, and after watching the gameplay of each following title I'm extremely glad I saved my money.
Watching some of the trailers for it too "With the new farcry there's a whole new approach to competing objectives look here as we show you how you can take over this base by going in stealthy and aslo you can go in guns blazing as well." do you think I have Alzheimer's Ubisoft? We've been doing this same shit for years.
Dude, I dont know if you read this ACG but there is a CZcamsr called SolidSpawn who is stealing your style and format and passing it off as his own. You should report him to the higher ups. Just letting you know as I like your stuff.
guess i'll wait for 10 dollar price tag.
Shouldn't be long after nobody buys this but Ubisoft couldn't pay me to play the exact same game as farcry 3 for the 5th time.
By that time it will be buried by so many better games.
After 5 I wouldn't pay 10 turds for this piece of shit.
I’m buying it for $15 on psn today.
You won't regret playing it.
Anything about co-op? Is it the same as FC5? With the limited range you can go from the other player?
Apparently I'm in the minority in this comments section at least. I thoroughly enjoyed Far Cry 5. So much so that I plat'd the PS4 version and actually just finished it on XB1 in time for this release. I'm only a few hours into this but I really like it.
I liked it quite a bit too. Same with 4 havent played primal though
@@SuperMicklovin primal sucks. It's really boring and there are too many side stories
Loved FC5, love this.
Wanna sell 5?
Why would you play the exact same game on 2 consoles?
Just signed up for your Patreon. Felt good, Thanks for the reviews and your “walk” videos
I love this channel so much.. only game review channel I watch. Thanks karak.
Ubisoft could’ve just named this “Far Cry Environmental Pack DLC” because this looks extremely recycled or reskinned lol. This shouldn’t be a standalone AAA game at all.
lol
And I'm sitting here waiting for blood dragon 2
Even blood dragon was boring as shit. The farcry gameplay loop died a decade ago.
overrated bull crap
I knew it. Reskinned garbage I’m sick of Ubisoft
It’s a completely different looking map.
Far Cry New Yawn
SHANTIN CRYP Deadass
Seeing as far cry 5 was absolutely amazing a little bit of reskinning means it's reskin awesome
Metro is a really good game however it is limited with the open world but the scenery is the best I’ve ever seen
One of the things I really liked when playing this is the Arua Borealis in the night sky. I also really liked the lowered population, it made it feel like a good number of people had died.
Ubisoft give us Assassin's Creed set in 1500-1700th century Japan already!!
Well, they said they're not releasing an assassin's creed game in 2019 so we better hope that Ghost Of Tsushima comes out this year.
Are you sure you want that setting forever destroyed for you? They already did an "okay" game with FC5... next up: shitfests. It happened before...
Linus Newman in first person
Just get Sekiro.
@@TheKueiJin Every game world they did so far was at least enjoyable, most were good. So I doubt that this would destroy the setting. It would have definitely quite a lot of potential. After all there were a lot of huge battles and the country was unified. In general quite an interesting period with lots of important political developments and also the arrival of guns.
Looks more like Paintball Simulator 2019 than a post-apocalyptic world.
lol - the map and world does remind me of a paint ball game. I don't care all that much for the map but the gameplay is really good.
I really like the style of the world
ACG Sometimes I really have zero interest in games but I watch your reviews just to hear you say things about Bison shagging rocks.
You make me smile.
Got my copy as a Christmas present so I'm looking forward to it!
Far cry 3 is the best in series
Play Far Cry 2 as well.
@@TheKueiJin i did and i like it but still FC3 is best. But sure fc2 is better than 5 and this dlc
And it was not even that good
Loved FC3 and then I kind of lost interest in the series. I played FC4 but I couldn't get into it, I skipped FC5 as it looked boring and I'm definitely skipping this pink turd.
@@ValHazzard yeah you're not missing anything just play metro
Who knew pink spray paint was so abundant in a post apocalyptic world
I just purchased the Farcry bundle off steam for $50. It came with every farcry game except 6, which I have on ps4. I've always been a fan if the series, with primal being my favorite. Nearly $250 worth of games for $50 is definitely a steal
hahaha this review is great. First ACG review I have seen and definitely only watching these from now on.
thanks tc
Now i'm curious if it has 3 shitty endings that mock you for playing violent Videogames, with the best ending being the one where you don't play the game.....
Hahahahhaha
If you think of it another way.. Ubi helping your life out by making you avoid their shittier games.
Ubisoft is so far up it’s own ass with those messages about violence, and they think they’re so clever for it. Spec Ops already did all this and in a much better way.
I've been watching the same catch grass on fire animation for 11 years and 5 games.
Where is the evolution? Should be able to burn buildings down by now.
Ah that would rock
The main reason I loved new dawn was because the fact that could recognize things from the previous game and as someone who gets attached it was very nice
Oh and thing that people usually do not get is that plants grow back actually pretty quick after nuclear explosion, also radiation is much smaller problem with bomb than some old reactor exploding.
Meh. This is a hard pass. I remember when Far Cry was actually a title you got excited about.
Yeah farcry 3 and that's it.
@Java Monsoon imagine paying 50$ for a new gun and the chance to liberate generic fort #452 for the rebels
@Java Monsoon The person is only making a point that the game is redundant and mundane - as is the series for quite awhile now.
You don't have to flex your video game resume to make a point. It makes you seem reductive and pretentious. I'm sure that the person won't be buying the game so saying "don't buy it, vote with your wallet" is unnecessary.
You've clearly played a lot of things, sure. You're also fine with repetitive titles, sure.
You could have just said, "You know what? I'm of the opposing side whom are fine with how the current Far Cry series is. I'll be sure to enjoy this."
But to be honest, kudos to you for playing a lot of different genres. Many people stick to their one of two. It's nice to see those who venture into many things.
@@tooblind1731 Your statement 100%. No one seems to be able to casually or constructively disagree anymore.
EDIT: Saying "no one" is a bit overdramatic, more like "not many".
@Java Monsoon To be honest I already knew you were going to argue against me using the word repetitve. As with any hobby or anything in general - that word can be thrown all over loosely.
My personal qualm with Far Cry or with Ubisoft in general, is that they really are pushing open world games out. That being barren open world games that barely differ from one another aside from theme.
The thing about repetition is good game play loop. I too would argue against repetition (I suppose you can somewhat consider me a hypocrite) because I love the hell out of Killing Floor 2 and the EDF series. Hundreds nearing thousands of hours in both. And once you get to that point the only difference is guns or mods.
So, essentially it comes down to what is worth it. We've been seeing this kind of Far Cry for many many years now with barely any changes. Then the first big change we see is a lite rpg touch to it.
I personally don't mind if they change it drastically. Like what happened to the Zelda series with Breath of the Wild.
I would need something bigger than just a bland story, edgy theme, and different guns/characters that essentially the same as before.
You make a point about iterations basically having quality of life changes. While I'd agree - the game series I personally play don't just have that. An example of a series of love would be the Yakuza series. There's a bunch more than fixing the jank in that.
Also I have dabbled being a trucker and spin tires so I can understand that. I would even argue those games have much more redeeming qualities than this Far Cry, ha.
Dry joke aside, I get it. There are gamers who whine too much when changes are made or when there isn't change. Those people aside - it still doesn't change the fact that Far Cry has yet to change in a meaningful way to earn its iteration.
More of the same is fine but it can't literally be more of the same, if that makes sense.
Appreciate the civil reply nonetheless.
I really like this game. They made a lot of improvement to the AI and made bases overall harder. The missions are harder for the most part too. I read this game was shorter than FC5 and maybe from a mission standpoint but you can retake bases at least 3 times. I like the scavenger aspect more as well. You have to scavenge to find items to make your explosives and med kits. You can't just buy them. Still overall I liked FC5 better with what I thought was the best maps, stories, and villians.
Really top notch reviews man!! Great job keep it up
LOL you got me with the Pug joke :D Well in sir, well in
thanks lol
Definitely choose Metro over this. Looks like Far Cry Instagram for wankers.
Didn't realise Insta was big on the post apocalypse scene
Far Cry Instagram 😂🤣 spot on !
The irony is that Metro is another hallway shooter we've all played over 20 times. How are you not bored of doing the exact same thing for over a decade?
Kevin Strom lmao fine buy new dawn instead of Exodus it’ll be your fucking loss not ours! 😭😭😭
conkerlive101 the hilarious part is that the actual components of metro vary drastically from the usual hallway shooter so you clearly have no clue what you’re talking about
Last one I played was far cry 4. Where is dying light 2 already?
Holiday season this year or early 2020.
@@eternalfps3124 hope so
Luke973T should be sometime this summer or if not fall. It’s guaranteed to be on PS4, XBox one and PC though
Dude , this is a very good review. Keep up the good work.
You're a busy open world dude, Karak! Thanks for the great reviews.
Why bullet sponges? Did anyone ask for this?
Basically after seeing the success of turning Assassins creed into an RPG it seems like they’re turning this into a full blown RPG next. Just wait till the next numbered titles, gurantee it will be like AC Origins.
So...Borderlands...
Diree yep. I just want a stealth game dude. Like the last AC I played was syndicate. I’m not into an RPG AC game. I feel like if they make another Splinter Cell they will just fuck it up making it online only or some shit. But god I miss Sam Fisher and sneaking around.
what bullet sponges mean? i don't know
PlatinumYuri its another bullshit way of gaming companys to say they can guarantee so many hours of gameplay for your money. Lazy programming!!!!
To be brutally honest im tired of the farcry sandbox its the same loop over and over do missons clear outposts same old same old with a few tweaks here and to create the illusion of something fresh and new.
That's pretty much been the standard ever since Far Cry became a free roaming game. Which is why the first one is still the better one, it had a narrative and left you in a semi open world. You can roam all you want in the level, but you have a goal at the end of it. But with these? They give you the illusion of it, and in comparison, the narrative is complete garbage.
Nothing brutal about it. Simple fact.
Thanks for the review. I love the Far Cry series but this was pretty much what I was expecting. I have to say, this was the first ever CZcams video where I've tried slowing the speed down :-o Keep up the good work.
u bet
Saw that coming from the moment i heard it announced.. Great review
As always thanks again for the reviews!
Hello, my red haired hero.
@@AwokenGenius Hello there I've been shipped wreck again and stumble upon this youtube channel
Far cry has lost something charming about it. I can't put my finger on it but something about it is missing, something that made it, better. I think they need to take a step back and look at what made older farcry games better.
Same man, I loved Far cry 3 and still liked Far cry 4 but i found FC5 incredibly boring and sold it after completing first region, it just lost some spark and was utterly boring.
They got rid of malaria. Malaria and broken weapons made the 2nd game 10/10.
The crafting for one... Why the hell did they remove that??
Face full of eyes has brilliant examinations on the far cry games, particularly far cry 2, helped me really understand, and put words to, the things I felt playing that game as a wee egg
In some ways I agree but what game franchise hasn't? Battlefield is not fun any more to me. People raved about GTA5 and RDR 2 but I thought GTA5 was linear and not fun. RDR2 was just boring to me. Both games looked great but there was no fun for me. For some reason I didn't have as much fun with FC4. FC5 & ND are lacking in originality but both are a lot of fun IMO.
Man I just love these reviews. So informative. thanks man
Thank you, great breakdown!!! Sometimes even if already purchased the game, all come and watch your videos to see if I would of agreed and wished I would of waited; yep, I agreed and wished I would of waited. (Stupid compulsive behavior!!!)
The only reason why I bought it at full price, because after playing FarCry 5 I was really interested in seeing what happened next, they did a great cliffhanger and I was a sucker; but it wasn’t a game that grabs you, a game when you are done playing you are still thinking about it, and going over strategy in your mind when you start playing again. I noticed myself at times, needing motivation to start playing but once I started it was good enough to keep me interested for a bit. More times or not I noticed myself when trying to decide what game to play, this one was never the first choice. If it wasn’t for my OCD I could stop playing and wouldn’t miss it, or when finished I probably won’t get what I like to call “Post-game Depression.”
hmm i was going to get this but it does not look like a nuke went of at all, i love far cry game's but this just seems to similar to the last one aside from the rpg elements.
Are you serious? Farcry 3 came out almost a decade ago and your just realising now that they haven't changed a damn thing in all those years.
8-10 fricken hours??? Are you kidding! That is rediculous considering the price point and dumbass microtransactions... Not to mention the amount effort and money that went into advertising this. The unchecked greed in the gaming industry nowadays is just sickening to me! Thanks for the great video bro!
I love New Dawn. With the music and sounds and colors it has a strong Far Cry 3 vibe.
Love upgrading weapons and making them stronger. Once you have the double jump, you don't want to be without it.
It pains a little playing through Hope County knowing how it used to be. Falls End is one big mechanic outpost.
6:10 that sound is the light ballast
It looks like Ubisoft swallowed a bunch of neon paint then threw it up all over Far Cry 5.
I'm sure the actual devs worked hard on this game but it doesn't feel like there's any passion...
Sun Levi worked hard? Using the same code script map... PLEASE
@@chickenlittle567 they kept some scripts etc but they modified the map and addes new stuffs
Not in a rush to play this but I do want to try it. Perhaps during the slow summer months.
You need more subs! I always wait for your reviews before buying games.
Ubisoft....don’t rush far cry, Quality > Quantity.
Fair review. I wish I would have watched this earlier than I did! My instincts told me not to get this, but out of boredom I did... Dammit! I should have listened to my instincts. This feels like a step backwards. Weapon modding is gone. They added in heavy bullet sponginess which is absurd in a "realistic" shooter. A mountain lion taking 90 rounds of 7.62mm to the chest and head? Yeah right! I also hate the home base and how square and neat it is. All the signs look like they are professionally printed, instead of hand painted. Hardly anything in the world really looks like it's post apocalyptic or hand built. They had a huge opportunity to possibly re-invent the Far Cry series, but they blew it with a stripped down cash grab. Ubi is getting as bad as EA with this.
ya in many ways it does
Wade McNeil, Guitarist from Alexisonfire, worked on FC:5 and New Dawns music. Hes done a great job.
Just discovered your channel the best reviewer yet to come
It's infuriating because we all know, given enough time and commitment, Ubisoft can make some great games; but they just seem push things out the door without so much as a forehead kiss.
I don't plan on buying lol its a cash grab
Majestic Beardsman Blood Dragon was unique and good, this is shit
@Majestic Beardsman Blood Dragon was a stand alone DLC/expansion and it was AMAZING. It's the one exception, and one worth mentioning.
As opposed to any other game put out lol
Every game is designed to be a cash grab
Spider venom 99 all games are cash grabs this one just looks bad
It's a business just like any other. Of course it's a cash grab. Nothing wrong with that.
Nope, I will look for this next year on a Thanksgiving Sale or Xmas sale on Steam to do some 15 to 20 hours of co op with a friend. However with all the amazing games released over the last 2 or 3 years I am just now catching up on I can not give this my time nor the 40$. Thank you as always ACG for your in depth reviews and your independence.
A like the little touches in your videos, like how you blurred out your objectives in the top corner to not accidentally spoil stuff for people who want to play it, little stuff like that
I played it and I say it’s a must play. Fun game overall. Really colorful atmosphere.
A must play? Not to old school fans no.
Ubisoft milking Far Cry 3 to death...
Lol wut
@@stevenewsom3269 hm?
@@stevenewsom3269 What do you not get about his comment?
You could just say Far Cry bud. They've released far cry 3 twice. Where as there has been plenty of far cry games
@@beburger2054 well far cry 1, 2 and 3 were all 3 different games
You are the deciding factor for just about every game I buy, dude. Thanks for everything
Karak tell me why you don't not have more subs... Tell me!!! Excellence as always
They're still chasing that FarCry 3 wonder. I don't think that's possible, not with the current micro-transaction happy attitude at least
Lucian Stoicescu Far cry V is better then 3 in almost every way. Nostalgia factor is why everyone loves 3.
@@123abc8027 lol seriously??? Better in gameplay but FC3 had better villains better story . And FC5 deleted many animations which is a dumbass decision. It also doesnt explain about the character of the protagonist. A fixed protagonist is better than customisable ones.
I loved far cry 5 so I like new dawn. Simple as that. It's nothing amazing but at $40 it's fun and worth it to me. It holds us over until Far Cry 6. People pay more for worse. I'm happy with it.
I can see that
Fallout. Enough said.
I really looking foward to far cry new dawn. I beat far cry 5 and when it was annouced i preorder the game looking foward to 6
People paid for anthem 😟
Same here. I loved Far Cry 5... I don't know what people are complaining about. New Dawn so far is really good, can't wait for Far Cry 6.
Well it’s beautifully aesthetically, good see not usual dull greys everywhere
Thank you for non-bias review, i really like being able to trust someone
Great review. I think I'm gonna pass on this one, or wait for a cheap key. I really loved far cry 5. I think it was fantastic and a great evolution of the ubisoft formula (which I like, if you don't then go look at another developer) I also loved the vietnam dlc, it was really great fun and has me wanting to play a full far cry game set in vietnam. Anywho, this game just doesn't look worth it, not for its smaller size and all the landscape being so colorful and healthy after all the radiation from multiple nukes falling.
Ubisoft made four good-great games in my eyes that I enjoyed: 1) Far Cry 3 2) Assassin's Creed: Odyssey 3) Assassin's Creed 2 4) Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.
Dude I have over 100 games for my ps4 and I can type in any of them with ACG and he has done a review . I can always count on him for entertainment bro.
I pretty much liked far cry from blood dragon onwards. I always waited on a sale though and looks like this’ll be no exception. Cheers for the no bull review 👍
