Here’s a list of the ones I’ve managed to pull off so far: Hijack a vehicle…from another vehicle It’s also the most Point Break of the games in the series, bristling with utterly preposterous high octane thrills. But if you just want Far Cry 3‘s elaborate playscape with a better sense of activity equilibrium and all the play systems not so much further sanded as subtly sandpapery (offering gratifying pushbacks, particularly in combat scenarios), this is it. If you come to Ajay Ghale’s Himalayan romp expecting narrative profundity, or a more subversive take on the Westerner-in-exotic-climes trope, you should probably look elsewhere. Not so Far Cry 4, which shipped relatively trouble-free and flush with incremental improvements in accord with the studio’s modest prerelease claims. In hindsight, they should have pushed it off to December, or even early 2015. No wonder Ubisoft delayed the game’s release from October. Plus, it shipped with bugs, a glitchy navigation system and a tendency to stutter in game-impacting ways when fighting amongst the game’s ballyhooed masses.

Far Cry 4 throws a spanner into the narrative that Ubisoft lost its mojo this year, by which I mean the Assassin’s Creed Unity debacle, though “debacle” probably overstates the issue.Ī quick word about Unity: It’s not a bad game, it’s just not the series-upending shift we were led to expect.
