Far Cry 5 - Ubisoft Connect EUROPE Digital Key
Far Cry 5 for PC is a crazy fun action-adventure first person shooter in which
you must be on your guard against weird and wacky opponents. Animals and enemies
will try and take you out, while other animals and strangers might randomly take
out those enemies for you. As the name implies, everything is a far cry from
reality!
ABOUT THE GAME
You take on the part of a rookie sheriff’s deputy, going along with your
colleagues to effect an arrest. Your mission is to arrest a cult leader named
Joseph Seed who has a nasty habit of kidnapping people to force them to join his
doomsday cult.
The planned arrest, a joint mission between the Sheriff and his men and the US
Marshals goes awry and Joseph Seed and his cult scatter into the bush, swearing
hideous punishment on those who have interfered with them. A helicopter crash
kills off some of your colleagues, leaving you to track the cultists and Seed
down.
The attempted arrest leads Seed to begin his end game, he and his followers
believing that end times are upon the world. They are prepared to kill everyone
in the county in order to ‘save’ their souls for eternity: it is your mission to
track them down to minimise the death toll.
It is an open world format, meaning that you can freely explore wherever you
want to wander, collecting items that might be useful to you along the way –
these can include big ticket things like planes and helicopters, as well as
food, weapons and survival packs.
NEW DETAILS
This incarnation of the game offers a much wider range of melee weapons than
before, allowing players to find their perfect weapon and hone their skills with
it, before unleashing it on the enemy.
The physics engines have been dramatically improved. For example, bullets fired
over long distances now drop with every hundred metres or so, as is true in real
life. Therefore, long shots need to be pitched upwards slightly, in order to
counteract this authentic feature.
WAYS TO PLAY
Solo
Play alone, wandering far and wide in the world, and watching all the excitement
as it goes on around you and sometimes starring you! You can explore the map, go
on a blood thirsty killing spree or simply find a quiet place by the river to
fish.
Do be aware though, that given the nature of the game, even a quiet moment
fishing can turn into a blood bath with no warning!
With a Friend
Meet up with a buddy who is also online and team up to explore together,
covering each other from enemy fire, and working together to bring down big game
and large groups of cultists.
With a Virtual Companion
There are nine AI companions to choose from: namely, a bear, a mountain lion, a
dog, and various people. The people are very talkative, while the bear is great
for taking out enemies, and dog can scent cultists and other animals long before
you are aware, they are there.
You can also take along a ‘gun for hire’ or a specialist, such as a sniper for
sneaky stealth attacks on distant outposts, to add to your firepower.
ENDGAME
Unlike most games, there are three endings to play out
Deputy Says No
If the deputy declines to press on with arresting Joseph Seed, Seed forgives him
while taking the deputy’s companions into the cult, often under the influence of
Bliss, a hallucinogenic drug that ensures a certain amount of compliance. It is
widely used by the cultists to kidnap people.
Deputy Arrests Seed
If the deputy goes ahead with the arrest, all hell breaks loose – the vehicle
carrying the arrested Seed in it crashes, killing almost everyone.
The Deputy loses consciousness, only regaining it once Seed has carried him to a
cabin, handcuffing him securely. Seed declares that the deputy is his family
now, as the cult is destroyed.
Secret Ending
Obscurely, this ending occurs near the beginning of the game, should the Deputy
decline to arrest Joseph Seed in the first instance, then the cataclysmic events
that play out in the normal storyboard simply do not happen.
