Far Cry 5 Looped the Same Day Repeatedly

A presentation for this year's Siggraph convention revealed that Far Cry 5 would loop the same in-game day repeatedly because Ubisoft had lighting issues with the game's Sun & Moon.

It's Groundhog Day, Far Cry-style.

Howardr0072078d ago

Seemed they had an issue with weather too.. can't knock them too much though. Far cry 5 was an immense game and experience. Although it was very similar to previous ..it felt fresh and new .
A little atmospheric weather next time maybe Ubisoft ?

ShadowWolf7122078d ago

Seemed to have an issue with wrapping up the story too. :P

Kyizen2077d ago

I hope RDR2 has atmospheric weather the storms in RDR1 were amazing so I hope that detail is upped in RDR2

AAWELLS092077d ago

I'd count on that actually. RDR2 is going to blow people away. Rockstar Games always outshines previous entries.

chris2352077d ago (Edited 2077d ago )

don‘t know about that. but it will most likely have loot boxes and micro transactions. and online modes *g*
rockstar is dead. they are only interested in moneymaking online modes anymore. yikes.

RosweeSon2078d ago

Bit like how they loop most of their series good games but man they love a yearly churn new area new number on the end New enemy same game

Kabaneri2078d ago

The lack of snow and rain was disappointing but the game was atmospheric nonetheless.

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

-Foxtrot61d ago

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor61d 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.

Profchaos61d 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

Demetrius61d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger8861d ago (Edited 61d 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.

Profchaos412d ago

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

Profchaos412d ago

Part of PS plus at the moment

ChasterMies411d ago

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

gangsta_red411d 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.

Demetrius411d 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!"

banger88425d 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.

blackblades425d ago (Edited 425d ago )

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

Darkwatchman425d ago

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

Knushwood Butt425d 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_Sakai425d 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 Butt425d ago

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

Eidolon425d 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.

LucasRuinedChildhood424d 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.

Eidolon425d 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.

KeeseToast425d ago (Edited 425d 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?

Welshy425d 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.

CML2425d ago

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

Stanjara425d ago

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

CML2424d ago

Probably because the studio doesnt exist anymore. 🥲

LucasRuinedChildhood424d ago (Edited 424d ago )

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