With gripping, Hollywood Reif staged history of the long-awaited shooter that throws us directly into the action begins.
Initially equipped with little money and only a pistol we start from a small enclave of freeing our friends from the clutches of pirates. And if we're at it to put us with the pirates, we can also equal, free as a supposedly "chosen one", back into the sea to hunt around the island from the reign of terror Vaas'.
But what we do and how we do it, is us freely. I have only captured a radio tower, with the aid of the "fog of war" that is, the card is uncovered. Reminds me a little of Assasins Creed, the conquest of the bell towers.
Next, I should conquer an outpost, armed with only a pistol and two hand grenades, a suicide mission.
In the beginning has designed to be difficult to be out finded how the game "ticking" and the control that I find it very successful works. Once you are somewhat familiar with the latter, the fighting goes easy on the hand and feels really good!
With only one weapon did not get far, so it was to kill at the time a few critters to get a better gun belt. Here actually come to some extent on RPG elements. I love it anyway insanely fun to lie down with a recurve bow in wait and recreate deer. However, there are ungemütlichere contemporaries like dragons or leopard that can ever arise from a nothing and even kill.
Anyway you need for any further enhancement of equipment, whether ammunition bag, medication bag, larger purse or even a larger prey animal leather backpack of Krokos, bear, bull sharks, dogs, ...
The arsenal is extensive, from handguns on the famous Kalashnikov to the flame and grenade launcher is actually everything is what can beat the pirate hunter's heart beat faster. Each weapon can be modified with silencers plus, lenses, extra magazines and a different (non-functioning) paint there also.
Nothing in the world is nothing, so not even the Boomstick. Money is scarce at first, often want to buy ammunition and stands with empty pockets in the shop. Then there heist to go on the prowl, treasure looting, mini games played (knife throwing, poker, auto racing, ...), commit contract killings of pirates and collect relics are gravel and XP.
Skillen we can offer our good Jason namely even, at first he can shoot and perform knife attacks, at some point also carry 2 opponents from above with a simple keystroke per knife to the afterlife or hide corpses, or continue in the air when the snipers longer.
So we transform from an initial ordinary holidaymakers to an instinctive killing machine that mows down every pirate without compromise.
What I really like is the kind of warfare that is (usually) completely up to us.
Here's an example: As a guerrilla warrior I peer out the outpost with my camera and select the opponents. These are then displayed along with line of sight on my minimap. The others just do not fit in, so the first one is struck silent by Arch. The second sleeping thanks to direct knife-in-neck attack from the sea now in the fish, the last three men be clean shot from the hill by Sniper, without even one comes close to the alarm button.
The Rambo style: C4 stick to the Jeep, take a seat, racing full tilt towards Camp, jump out shortly before and carry the whole camp by remote release and thanks to 2-3 around standing fuel drums into the afterlife. The remainder is mowed with a LPG which summoned the alarm cause is racing in a jeep going, thanks mortars into flames.
For me this is one of the many advantages of the game, I can play it the way I want it! Whether I follow the main story or the (huge!) Islands first out alone, is left to me. The whole setting is very consistent, you are caught up at it, as you just stares off into the sunset, so beautiful is the!
The day-night cycle is very well implemented and also generally the graphics can be seen. Of course, not comparable with the PC version of Ultra (Incredible panoramic view, light is refracted in the leaves, much better Anisotropic filtering, etc etc ...). But honestly, we are talking about the graphics to a nearly six-year-old bracket and in this context, I am thrilled. What tickles out of this game console is on my Full-HD television a splendor! An example Uncharted 3 yet it does not come close, with Uncharted is also console exclusive.
The story captivates, I felt so far arrived at the half (15 hr. Time) but I have very often made side orders dipped for relics in the sea and improve my equipment.
For multiplayer I can not say anything until now, neither the co-op, but is being updated)
Conclusion:
Far Cry 3 is not a purebred 08/15 shooter, but has a bit of everything. Climbs, RPG elements (including money-Farming), action adventure, racing game .... The best it can be probably. designate more than open-world shooter where every corner can lurk deadly pirates and other dangers of the jungle.
The only (slightly) negative so far, is the somewhat lax difficulty. Hardcore gamers should choose the same here the most severe category, because the normal level is loose doable for casual without too often to bite the dust. Also, I'm curious to see how the long-term motivation is make with me. Thanks multiplayer and co-op the title will hopefully not quite as fast disappearing shelf to play through. He deserves it! In addition, one probably comes as something else, á la DLC from the PSN Store.
Exciting Story, with a crazy villain (voiced by Simon Hunter awesome) and a dreamlike setting make the holiday in hell (almost) perfect!
