Far Cry Arcade: we wanted to "give it its own identity"

GR talked to Ubisoft about the "infinite" amount of content players can create in Arcade.

infinite user generated content is as dull and boring as procedural generated content. i would not exactly shout out that my games uses such mechanics. it‘s not an advertisement but the opposite of that. but some devs don‘t seem to get that (most) users are not dumb. although i got my doubts.

TheCommentator2273d ago

Okay, we get it. You don't like user generated content. Don't call people who enjoy creating stuff dumb though. It makes you sound... dumb.

I bet the people who created games like Counter Strike and Team Fortress don't think user-generated content is dumb. I bet the people who recreate all of their favorite maps from other games don't think it's dumb either. I would even bet that the people who use the Livery editor in Forza (especially the ones who were hired by Turn 10) don't think user generated content is dumb either.

I’m making over $17k a month working part time. I kept hearing other people tell me how much money they can make online so I decided to look into it. Well, it was all true and has totally changed my life. This is where i started>>> http://www.SelfNet8.com

"...and after we launch the game there'll be more content packs as well, that we'll be putting online for everyone to download and have even greater variety from."

Awesome! The art assets from the DLC "campaigns" is all but assured. Viet Nam, Outer Space, and Zombies, oh my!!!

Played and enjoyed Far Cry, Far Cry 3 and 4 campaigns .

-Foxtrot75d ago

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor75d ago

Yeah, 4 was good, was hard choosing which Golden Dawn member to side with, when they were both pieces of sh!t.
I've beaten all the main entries except 2 and 6, ended up uninstalling 6 to download something else instead.

Profchaos75d ago

I'd love a far cry pack with the original PC game (not the half assed port on ps360) instincts, predator even a port of far cry 2 to modern consoles back when these games had their own identity and weren't far cry 3 cut and pastel

Demetrius75d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger8875d ago (Edited 75d ago )

Same here, I don't know why these games get so much hate. I've thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them, with only a couple of exceptions. I wish they'd hurry up and announce Far Cry 7. The only thing I'm concerned about is the rumoured time limit.

Far Cry 5 Has Surpassed 30 Million Players Worldwide

The 2018 first-person shooter has reached this milestone exactly 5 years after its initial release.

Profchaos426d ago

When you're free on every single service it's eventually going to happen.

Profchaos426d ago

Part of PS plus at the moment

ChasterMies425d ago

Far Cry 5 is “free” if you pay for PS+ Extra.

gangsta_red425d ago

Going to have to try and get back into Far Cry. The formula for Far Cry may be fun, but it gets repetitive very fast.

Demetrius425d ago

Been playing this series since far cry 3 I love the adventuring vibe this series gives off even far cry primal is so good, but experiencing far cry 5 in 60 fps crisp graphics on ps5 for the first time is dope it adds life to it, I wana give far cry 6 a second chance couldn’t get into it at first I wonder if it’s worth it

Far Cry 5 in native 60 FPS - available for PS5 & Xbox Series consoles now

Far Cry 5 Official Twitter: "You've been waiting long enough… Welcome to Hope County! Experience Far Cry 5 in native 60 FPS - available for PS5 & Xbox Series consoles … NOW! Far Cry 5 will also have a FREE WEEKEND from March 23-27 on all consoles & PC. Enjoy!"

banger88439d ago

Damn. I replayed it recently on SX with fps boost, and to achieve that they had to downgrade the resolution. Game played great but looked like ass. Wish I had've waited.

blackblades439d ago (Edited 439d ago )

So you saying fps boost lowers the resolution to achieve 60fps? Cause that culteastwitch was praising in a fanboy cok suking way.

Darkwatchman439d ago

It depends on the game. Some keep Xbox One X resolution. Others drop to base Xbox One resolution and settings.

Knushwood Butt439d ago

Nice
Waiting to play this on Extra but have had too much else to play.
So is this a native PS5 version or does the PS4 version run at 60fps on PS5?

Jin_Sakai439d ago

As expected, Far Cry 5 will now run at 60 frames-per-second on PS5,

“as part of a patch that optimises the PS4 game on Sony's new-gen console.”

Knushwood Butt439d ago

Downloading now. I might do a bit of pancake gaming this weekend.

Eidolon439d ago

Not native PS5. But still looked pretty good on PS4 Pro, and at a solid 60fps, definitely a good experience. Sadly games can't break out of PS4 Pro resolutions, for some reason.

LucasRuinedChildhood438d ago

PS4 games can run 2-2.5 times better on PS5. They're basically just changing the framerate cap to take advantage of that. They could actually change the resolution but it might affect the framerate - it's not a native PS5 game so it can't properly take advantage of the hardware. 1620p isn't bad, tbh.

Eidolon439d ago

Was really hoping to read that New Dawn would be upgraded as well. :( Already beat Far Cry 5 + and only like 1 hr into New Dawn.

KeeseToast439d ago (Edited 439d ago )

Pretty nice 👍
Now we’ll only need fps boost for:
Arkham Knight
Bloodborne
The Last Guardian
Assassin‘s Creed Unity
Shadow of the Colossus
Gravity Rush 2

Did I forget something?

Welshy439d ago

The worst part about AC Unity is that it *does* run natively at 60fps, but only when running the 1.0 version from the disc. If you allow the game to update, future patches applied a 30fps cap for some reason.

I don't see any reason it would be difficult to just lift the cap that they added.

CML2439d ago

Shadow of the Colossus already runs at 60fps.
Its possible to play The Last Guardian at 60fps with an unpatched disc version too.

Stanjara439d ago

So why not unlock framerate cap on the latest version? Can't be that hard.

CML2438d ago

Probably because the studio doesnt exist anymore. 🥲

LucasRuinedChildhood438d ago (Edited 438d ago )

Absolutely. RDR2 still sells very well so the lack of a next gen version after GTA5 next gen is really annoying.
