>my weapon continues to jam constantly
>mercs do not have gun jams even though most of them are rusty pieces of shit, have infinite ammo, and know where you are because there is no stealth in this game even though the game implies there are stealth mechanics

Farcry 3 is better.

If not for extremely repetitive missions and enemy routes. And the extremely annoying:

No

It is fun though, and I wish the series would return to this kind of grittiness

Can someone with a sub post Icy's review of this game?

I've been curious for years what makes it his GOAT.

Too many flaws to even be considered a great game. It was a cool tech demo though.

>>378026317
well it's a massively flawed FPS game so that makes them similar, I guess

Did you guys even play the NES classic, Ninja Gaiden? Were you born yet?

3 feels far more like stalker than 2, simply because of the fact that the only danger you face in 2 is from other humans. 3 has tigers and komodo dragons chasing you everywhere.

For real though, what games were better than this prior to 2007?

it's literally what made the game so tense and therefore great

It's one of the best and criminally underrated.
>>
>>378027503
>it's literally what made the game so tense
But it didn't? Once you bought a gun, you got access to its copies forever, and gunshops are everywhere. And malaria is barely even there.

It's hilarious when plebs thinks games like FC and FC2 don't have stealth just because they're used to playing the baby stealth of stuff like Thief or Splinter Cell.

We should have a thread about the actual hardest games to stealth sometime. I've forgotten so many of them.
>>
>>378027869
Stalker is one of the hardest but greatest games to stealth, for sure.
>>
>>378022169
I fucking love this game. Always find myself replaying it
>>
>>378027869
Well in FC1 stealth isn't really there for you to escape enemy contact, it's there as a tool to confuse the AI and gain the upper hand. Make a noise, retreat, flank the AI as it converges on your last "known" location.
>>
>>378022169
The absolute biggest flaw with this game is the infinitely and immediately respawning outposts, with niggers that hound you indefinitely meaning you have to stop and kill them every few hundred feet.

This is something that even mods can't fix, since when you leave the outpost area the game doesn't store any memory of it meaning it immediately resets, and modders have been unable to change this.

literally one of the best memories I've had in an fps. I swear the people who bitch about gun jamming just don't like difficulty in their games. I can kinda see the malaria shit being annoying because it's more like an annoyance that can't be easily worked out on the fly by just retreating and regrouping.

I sincerely hope it turns out to be good. I've been hoping for a game that takes advantage of a Montana setting for years now.

oh gee I guess there's no reason to hate fc2 is there chief?
>>
>>378028112
I'm saying I never experienced jamming in FC2 after like the first 30 minutes. I bought a G3, used it, would switch to a new one every time I'd be taking a new mission in a bar.

When a game uses shock controversy or politics is when you know it has nothing new to offer on the gameplay front.
See Modern Warfare 2 "No Russian" mission and the scene where the little girl blows up in Modern Warfare 3.

I can guarantee that it will reuse assets from Far Cry 3, 4, and Primal.

You can't call a game of this scale a tech demo. Tech demos are short in length and don't have any extra content.

Alright you have me convinced. I'll pick it up from the next summer sale for 2,5€ (yes it actually goes for that cheap)

I have to agree with this.Sneaking in FC2 is really challenging since you don't get a cheat vision or a map to see where enemies are and you are playing through first person.Makes sneaking that much harder and fun.
>>
It's the best Far Cry, and with a few details changed (like weapon mods and having checkpoints respawn when you rest rather than the second you turn your back on them) it would have been one of the best games ever made.
>>
>>378038680
>With few things changed, it would go from garbage to good
>>
>>378028112
okay edge lord running backwards and spamming grenades is soooooo tactical
>>
>>378039238
That arguement doesn't work if it is actually possible to change the things that make this game garbage.

That one realism mod (that also fixes things like the constantly respawning enemies) plus a graphics mod of your choice that removes the shitty brown filter the game has because of the "dude brown means realistic lmao" fad that was going on around that time and the game becomes the second closest alternative to STALKER there is.

I don't think so

>>378024218
If you did the missions helping civilians escape, you pretty much never ran out of malaria pills.

If you went to the gun dealer and paid to unlock guns, and made sure to pick up a fresh one FOR FREE in your armoury before setting out on long runs, your gun would never let you down. Unless you insisted on using brittle shit like the American AR, or that overly advanced derp-caliber sniper rifle which was just worse in every way than the Dragunov.

If you understood that "stealth" meant "use a silenced weapon, be careful not to let others see your target die", or "use the opportunity to take the first shots and kill one or two, RELOCATE before they pin you down and surround you, and then make use of the enemy's confusion to engage again from another direction", stealth style raids were never a problem.

At least talk shit about the game for its actual faults rather than "I didn't understand how to play it therefore it was bad".

>>378026845
No but i played 2 and that was enjoyable.

Any game that respawns enemies like that are just errors in code that devs are to lazy to fix. Except FC2 was just another shit FPS.
>>
Far Cry 2 is one of the best examples of "almost good."

With literally a few things changed, it could be good.
With a few bigger changes, it's GOAT tier, FPS wise.
>>
>>378036679
Yo, that is some gay ass nigga response. Sweetie? You takin' too many dicks up yo ass bitch.

People who complain about the guns jamming a lot haven't even played the game
>>
>>378028069
Far Cry 3 has the opposite problem where when you take over outposts, the world becomes emptier and emptier and boring.
I'd rather play a First Person Shooter to SHOOT things.
>>
>>378043650
I think Far Cry 3 did it well. You were almost always adventuring in hostile territory in the game, so it felt like a nice change to have some area be peaceful thanks to your efforts. Usually by the time some area was cleared of enemies, you had already explored it quite a bit.
