Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

I'm getting steady 70 fps with my stock 3570k and gtx 670, with the same settings as DCully.
However, I do notice weird shadows flickering in the water (when I look at it from a distance) when I move. Other than that it's perfect.
Great game. Only beef I have is that I find it a bit easy, even on hard difficulty.
The only real challenge is when I'm up against a tiger and I unload an mp5 clip into its head and it doesn't die
AI seems retarded as well. If you have a bit of patience they pretty much just come at you 1 by 1.0 -

Looting a body is the only thing I don't like from this game.
Too many times their guns are beside them and you end up going in a loop of throwing weapons repeatedly while you try to be pixel-perfect to check their corpses.
Anyways, the flamethrower is great. I carry it around only to scare animals away from me. A quick burst and you'll have the tigers and komodo dragons running away in fear
It's also bloody satisfying shooting the molotov in an enemy's hand and watching it engulf him as he runs around in circles screaming!
I've pumped in a good amount of time since it's release and I'm not even halfway through this game, I especially haven't gotten bored of it yet.0 -

Nah it's those story driven events. Without spoiling theres a jeep that needs push starting. Took me 20 minutes to get that one.
You can fast travel away from the area if you're being mauled
And the save points are screwed so if you don't manage to "mash space" you get to watch the same 3 minute cinematic over and over and over agin until you want to scream.0 -

I have to kill a black panther with a bow and arrow, I get three shots and the bollox still gets me every time. I even have the bow upgrades and hunting stims active. Any of you guys face it yet?
Edit: I may have to ring in sick tomorrow/today i only realised im in work at 9, I thought it was about 2:30 at the latest. Cant get a better review for a game than that
Also just found an abstergo file :O0 -

I think i played the best level ever last night, Kicking the Hornets Nest. I think it's Story Mission 13. I will spoiler it:First off, getting to the Weed farm and starting to burn with the flamethrower, and he says "Holy fook, this is brilliant" or something like it, and a fantastically fitting song playing in the background.This level is just fantastic. Everything went so well together! And i don't even like Skrillex!
Going to have to see what other games i've played this year, and yet to get Dishonored, but i think this is definitely GOTY. Ubi have made themselves another cash cow!0 -

Lucky you! I finished it last night. Now what will I do
Sidequests ? do it again on higher difficulty ? don't just sit for 50 hours straight playing it for the sake of completing it as soon as possible ?
Myself and probably half the people on the thread fall into the category of players that, as soon as the "introduction" shackles are taken off, just run in a random direction doing sidequests and not touching the main story for the first 20 hours or so.
Same with Fallout / Skyrim or any open world game.0 -

Im in the same category but could not stop playing it! Finished all of the side quests and unlocked all of the signature weapons by collecting enough collectables.
I cleared all of the camps and radio towers before touching most of the story.
I can give ye the HumbleBundle if you're on PC and don't already have it (Darksiders / Company of Heroes / Red Faction /Metro2033)
Else I suggest get a new game or a new hobby 0 -

I grabbed the bundle almost instantly :P Thanks though!
I am just in that funk when you finish a really good game and nothing else you play will live up to it for awhile. Twill fade just like it did with borderlands 2 and other before it!0 -

I think there is a bug where it shows up as running in dx11 even if you run the farcry3.exe and not the farcry3_d3d11.exe
You need to run farcry3_d3d11 to be sure you are running dx11
I just tested there with a gtx 570 60 fps running farcry3.exe
20 fps running farcry3_d3d11.exe :eek:
Dcully are you running farcry3_d3d11.exe?
My dx11 screenshots.

When your only gripe is it takes too long to loot or can be finicky to get the prompt.
Thats it....nothing else about this game bothers me. Crackin game sorty blah blah, its the outposts that have me hooked.
Finally a game that lets me be the god damn predator (may have made some click click click noises out loud whilst playing
)
Altho a bit of an LOL moment i videod last night, planned my assault. Queitly take out the lad with the armour sign (hmm thats new, what does that mean?) then move onto the 2 lightning lads with the double knife take down. Then finish off the 2 on the far side with the assault rifle. In and out 2 minutes tops, no alarm triggered.
Crept behind the lad with the armour sign......hmmm no takedown option....he turned around....fcuk..it all went to **** right there
Carefully planned quiet assault turned into a bloody fiery assault in which many pirates died and the entire outpost was burnt to the ground.
I learned heavy lads need heavy takedown or rocket launcher to the face.0 -

I dont think theres an option outside of that shop to equip guns, if there is im a spa
yeah i had a look there but there are no attachments available.
I may have to do some of the missions first as I have done only 10 -
