Correction:
-While Ubisoft Montreal helped with this - Ubisoft Toronto took the lead on this project, with assistance from Kyiv, Shanghai, Berlin, Phillippines, and Montpelie
So not just "Ubisoft Montreal" as I stated at the beginning.
Cool
Can you blame the guy it's pretty much been the same from fc 3 lol
Just played 2042 for 7.2 hours. What can I say to a game which only got 40-50 FPS 1080p medium settings on GTX 1080:(
@@ankizhou655 oh that sucks, especially for a shooter.
@@ankizhou655 was actually planning to play this on 4k but i can probably scrap that idea lol
Not even 48 hours after the game released and there’s already a comparison by Nick930 out there. Man’s dedicated.
I've been playing since last week :)
@@Nick930 you should've left him his Illusion.
@@herschelschueler Well.. maybe I've been playing since last week because I time traveled? He'll never know!
@@Nick930 For no reason at all you seem like an awsome and wholesome person
Bud, he had early access
In my opinion, the best environment was Kyrat. The Himalayan mountains with varieties of exotic wildlife was amazing
i think far cry 5 better. it has an amazing environment and u could almostt forget there's crazy cult killing everyone and giving drugs to people
Yeah, the exotic wildlife was so amazing I quit the game after 1h after being mauled to death several times in minutes 😂
@TheSandkastenverbot they should make a facry Jurassic park version.
I'm sure you'll love it 😄
@@TheSandkastenverbotthe eagles where so God damn annoying 😂
After playing Far Cry 5 I played Fat Cry 4 again because I was longing to use specific weapons again, the autocross and the Buzzsaw. While replaying it I was surprised how many villages are in the game.
Far Cry 5 has only Falls End, the trailer park and Hurk's cousin's place.
Far Cry 5 is way underrated, one of the most enjoyable and relaxing games I’ve ever played.
My best game ever
Agreed it’s my favorite Far Cry game I’ve played. I also played fc4, and Pagan is my favorite villain by far, but I still prefer fc5 for its vibes
@@kpdelaney6460 play far cry 3 is the best by far, and has the best villain Boss
@@JonyCr95 I didn't play fc3 but I have watched playthroughs of it and it does look pretty good
@@kpdelaney6460 you have to try it. The graphics and map of paradise nature is really sick . Vaas the best villain

You guys are just retro gamers.
@@skydaddy2692 really ?? lol
@@michaelmonstar4276 Huh ? ok lol
Well i still can see the difference though
@@michaelmonstar4276 Wrong.
I’m not a big fan of the leveled weapons and enemies. But as far as the bullet types, just put on the ap rounds. They work pretty good against everything.
Tho it can be annoying to have to use way too many bullets for unarmored guys. "Use the right tools for the right job" - Juan
this isnt leveled enemies like they tried in New dawn, take it like health bars from bioshock.
@@LeuLeumas the enemies just have varying levels if destructable armor like from new dawn which i liked tbh, but they still have similar health pools, just resistances to certain ammo types. "Use the right tool for the roght job" -Juan
@@spacedout4061 thats cool
@@spacedout4061 I generally carry a LMG with ap rounds. As that's more useful. And a ar/battle rifle with the soft target ammo. ASVAL mag dumping in their head works great. And then the orbiter for helis and other anti armour. And rhe full auto Golden mak for the sidearm. Which is great for drive bys.
I personally don't mind the loot system in this game. It makes going out and exploring the world worth it.
If the loot was worth it I'd agree with you, but 90% of the gear is trash you'll never use.
It's fun, makes me feel like i'm improving within the game. Felt the same way with the other games but 6 makes it feel stronger.
Exactly. My buddy and I just take a chopper and go to each drop and while I hover, he collects the drops/goodies.
No thats the missions and there isnt a loot system u buy guns or get them ad rewards
The loot system is just picking up 1 million of the same things, 3 had flavour to the loot.
The fact that they scrapped the “Guns for Hire” feature from Far Cry 6 is disgraceful. That was one of my favorite new features in Far Cry 5. It was awesome feeling like you had your own crew and made you think about what followers you wanted to keep based on your play style.
Fangs for hire stayed, which is more preferable in my opinion. guns for hire was a bit lame, but thats just me I guess
it's not disgraceful lmao
I would of never used it. I didn't even bring any of my Amigo animals with me they were just annoying and got in my way or would mess everything up when I was trying to stealth my way through an fnd base or something. I just wanna get immersed and go around on my own not have a crocodile following me
Yes!
Nah, guns for hire was just a gimmick never used it
This game is by Ubisoft Toronto. - Pretty much all other Far Cry games but the first (which was by Crytek) were by Montreal, and even Far Cry 5 was co-developed by Toronto and assisted by some other studios.
Good catch. So used to saying Ubi Montreal when it comes to Far Cry I didn't even notice. I added a pinned comment
@Rafi Dwiputra Daniswara he pinned his own….
Awesome
@@Nick930 - Hey! - I know, it's probably because it's their biggest studio who also do most of the flagship games, and Montreal indeed has done pretty much 90% of "Far Cry", so one can't be blamed for thinking it's once again by them. - It's probably because they were still on "AC: Valhalla" that it moved to Toronto this time around. (I also just noticed that "Watch_Dogs" also went from Montreal to Toronto.) - I also think it's important to make the distinction that Ubisoft consists of multiple studios, as many seem to think it's just this one entity that does everything. - And fun fact; Apparently some studios under Ubisoft even have a rivalry going on, and not a friendly one.
Yep, that probably explained why WD Legion is so lackluster.
If they were able to do this amount of detail in jungle environments. Imagine what it would like if they do a Vietnam Farcry based game or a Pacific theater one, would be pretty dope tbh.
I've been waiting for a true vietnam game for decades now. Battlefield Vietnam was the closest we've gotten. And I guess Vietcong or that Red Orchestra spin off.
Still would love a full fledged Vietnam experience.
@@Nick930 Looks like a Vietnam based game, is gonna come more likely from Battlefield Portal mode. A lot of games tried to do a Vietnam based game like Mafia 3 tried, Cod CW tried, even Far Cry 5 dlc tried. But still not a single triple A game did what you said, I've been waiting too, specially a open world game based on vietnam and the Farcry 5 dlc and Mafia 3 is the closest one we get.
@@Nick930 Rising storm 2 was an excellent Vietnam game but I suppose you mean this one by saying red orchestra spin off.
Also mafia 3 had the closest feel to Vietnam era eventhough biggest part of the game was on new orlean. But there were a few missions at Vietnam plus the music, guns and cars, even at new orlean, gave you the same feeling that you are on the Vietnam era.
there is in FC5 DLC, but i think for something new they could make a country invasion plot, but yeah they will nver make something like Vietnam/Iraq/Afganistan etc because US is should be the enemy as they invade the country, so Ubisoft scared to do that
@@Nick930 Cod Black Ops
The graphics and setting of this game is incredible. Love just exploring around and literally always lose track of my objectives.
Literally two different games in question
@@hmvaa cool, was talking about both games.
@@brandonmcgrew4367 Cool, then say that next time shitass.
Surprised you didn't touch on the changes to the photo mode, the biggest of which allowing live spectating in real time. I love setting a destination to auto drive to then opening up photo mode to be able to enjoy the scenery from above with a drone like view different filters and if done at Sun rise or sun set you can enjoy that time of day from one side of the map to the other instead of for a minute or two. Only catch is if your player takes damage the photo mode will automatically be turned off.
I always love direct comparisons from Nick. Mainly because it's interesting what improvements were made or what step backs happened be it graphics or gameplay.
Right! I hope he never stops making them. It’s such a unique way to review a game. I don’t see anyone else doing videos like Nick
Psyched.Shelby I always look up comparison videos when big games I'm interested in come out, and while there are some cool detail comparison vids, Nick is the only person I've seen who even talks, let alone goes into such depth as he does. He even does the gameplay comparisons now, while he used to only do graphical comparisons. Love this guy
@@blokin5039 bro chill 😭
Is this game worth to play, I am new to Far cry should I play or skip it
Except he always compared a polished off, updated version of the previous game to the brand new unpatched version of new games. I would prefer a comparison of far cry 5 when it first dropped to far cry 6. Of course the previous version is going to look better and smoother with all its updates and stuff.
the waves do seem to be lost but holy crap the smaller water splashes when you swim or the trail that a water vehicle leaves, that is absolutely what i've wanted for so long. fc5 already looked better than almost any other game in that regard, but the various tiny 3d-ish ripples in fc6 just look so good
I know! He brushed over it like it was nothing but I was like damn look at that water!
Unlike most games, the water ripple effect looked 3D. Whoever did the water effects for this game need a raise! And whoever did the fire effects for the flamer thrower need fired lol
Yeah AC Valhalla already had one of the best water i had seen but this looks even better. Ubisoft is honestly the gold standard of the industry for the moment when it comes to water (except for that horrible Watch Dogs Legion water), although if the gameplay demo for Horizon forbidden west was real that would be the new peak for that.
@@SuperBallani Seen Sea of Thieves, that has great water physics too.
Yeah the water effects are pretty nice. I like that they added 3D waves for larger shorelines, and it feels great when jumping in water.
So far i'm really loving this game, my main big issue being the mentionned ammo system. God standards ammos sucks, to the point it's pretty much mandatory to strap AP rounds on anything if you don't want to throw entire mags into people.
In both FC5 and 6, you can change the weapon position (offset) to centered in the gameplay options. They wanted to leave options for the player to either see more of their weapons and arms or the world.
Broooo how do you do that i couldnt find it can you help (FC6)
@@furkanbayr4176 noob
@Extremiste_ bro, wtf he's just asking a question
That's not what the offset and centered options mean. The options change where your reticle is located, no the were the weapon model is on your screen.
Been looking forward to this!
Ok
Ok
I like your videos bro
@@stunnafan8905 lmao
Yes
Far Cry 6 color palettes look brighter and cartoonish while Far Cry 5 a more toned down realistic look, both equally stunning.
That's my main issue, it's looks cartoonish in a way.
Hollywood: "That's how Latin America looks like..."
Give me one good reason how it looks cartoonish. Brighter doesnt automatically mean cartoonish. Both games look realistic with FC 6 looking even more real. Nick even mentions this in the video. What part looks cartoonish? The trees? The vegetation? The roads? The cars? The weapons? What does the word cartoonish mean in this context?
@@brucew565 dude chill hahaha, I think it's the heavy saturation that's doing it for me. Like it's stunning, but all the colours are so bright and saturated it feels unrealistic.
I like FC 5 style much more
The difference in the audio/echoes, the air in Montana is going to be quite different than the air on a tropical island, that affects the echo massively.
That's actually a very accurate thing they did there.
The best gaming related content on TH-cam! Appreciate all the hard work you put in to these videos for us!
Far Cry 6 is honestly what I wanted far cry to return to and it's a blast to play but you have to be a fool to ignore the absolute awe-inspiring ambience that was achieved with the world of Hope County coupled with its soundtrack
THANK YOU.
Finally someone else who shares my sentiments.
I actually really enjoy Hope County.
same dude
The soundtrack of 3, 4 and 5 is something else
Hope County is gorgeous
FC 5 sucks
If there’s one thing I will forever love about Ubisoft’s games, it’s that they all have amazing looking water, and Far Cry 6 has the best by far.
Their world are also amazing.
Watch dogs legion doesn't
FC 5 Water was Trash imo. And i played it all on ultra settings
fc5 had shit water, Ac odyssey had the most beautiful looking water even tho as a AC game it was doo doo. Even valhalla has dirty england water but it still looks beautiful
@@johnonks5760 Graphically water wasn't trash at all but it wasn't beautiful as 6

It’s disgusting lol
it’s horrible
I've definitely noticed improvements in the a.i when it comes to noticing bodies, making the act of hiding them actually useful for once. I also like the restrictions placed on attachments, it makes you think before you choose.
they are still braindead compared to something like MGSV...
@@LeuLeumas that's also metal gear. Built around stealth action.
Far cry is more. Chaotic action. And stealth is optional. They shoot where they last saw you to flush you out of cover. Rather than magically know where you are.
@@thecoolnerdplaysvr5674 they are brainless both in action and in stealth
They do the job fine enough, stealth would be almost impossible if everyone was big brain
Yeah right what are you playing? Worst a.I.
Love the fact they fixed some of my main Immersion issues I had with Far Cry 5 like the static foliage, boring healing system and kinda empty world(regarding things like different wildlife or towns)
With 5s stupid ass regenerating health hell ya never even had to heal yourself
still very poorly made like any indie games. Play red dead redemption 2 and u gonna experience the real wildlife.
@Turtle Club he’s right stop acting as he’s saying non sense
@Turtle Club mate you’re a tool, u know exactly what I said but people like you are just bored bye.
@Turtle Club thought we ended this 8 minutes ago TOoL
Amazing, 33 minutes of comparisons, good job for taking the time to record all the footage and edit for your entertainment
FC 5 was the best one for me. I don't know why but The world felt living and was really addictive. I've played every Far cry but there was something else with FC5. The hiking trails with People playing guitar by a camp fire and the real feeling of being outdoor. Far cry 6 is good but miss the wow feeling of the world. Also The soundtrack made FC5 better.
+
FC 5 is the best for me to. I liked the crazyness. I like it even more than 3. I started playin 6 now lets see how it goes.
@@eagleforce4116 I didn't even finish it because it's crazy repetetive and the world for me was dead. Also the story, npc and characters is boring and the same over and over. They tried to make the game woke aswell.. Some seems to like the game so hopefully you'll get a good experience
Everything about far cry 6 is wacky and arcade
I just got far cry 5 and it seems like a decent game i just dont know if i can handle the fov on console it feels so zoomed
Its been like 2 days and there’s already a comparison made between 5 and 6, never seen this guy before but *DAMN* does he work fast.
Keep it up man :)
actually only around 19 hours since release 🙃
He apparently has been playing since last week, but even so...
It's called early access my guy. Most youtubers get games way early
Wait you need gunpowder for every upgrade?
*takes handful of gunpowder*
*makes laser pointer out of it*
Takes a bucket full of gun powder
Makes FUCKING LASER CANNON from it
Wsp fellow yobo
I know I am late to the game here but my 2 cents. 1) awesome breakdown of the differences and improvements made, very detailed! 2) for any new players, do not underestimate the Bandido Operations great way to earn resources super fast early game. Did not get much coverage here but wanted to share it can be very helpful
Great! I'm playing Far Cry 6 and rhe environment is so well designed. Sometimes I just stare at the horizon. The setting also reminds the legendary Far Cry 3.
Bruh, the noise of the intro is so satisfying
I just like how he sounds like Kermit. I would love to hear him sing Rainbow Connection.
Great video, but something to note, you can actually choose a "Centered" option in FC5 settings to revert to the classic weapon location which I also prefer, besides that, I liked both games
I was going to say the same thing ...alot of people dont really look into the settings all that much lol
Was looking for this comment, I thought I hadn't just imagined that.
The lowered crosshair position drives me mad, and I hate how almost every single youtuber just leaves it on default
I actually REALLY like the weapons round options. Like. You get the option of soft and hard rounds for free on every gun so it incentivizes players to keep a lot of stuff on them. Be prepared. Its not hard
Been here since 40k subs and Nick never disappoints!
I think Far Cry 3 would also make a great comparison considering how similar the environments are and to show how far the engine has come since 2012
Because it’s on an island? Pacific islands are different from Caribbean ones lol.
@@CarvedStones still similar flora dickhead
@@spartacussmith7070 No, the landscape and climates are different. If you want to compare FC3 to a different island compare it to FC1 or Instincts since they take place in Micronesia which is pretty close to where the Rook Islands take place.
@@spartacussmith7070 Also FC3 has way more vegetation look to it since it was inspired by Vietnam lol
@@CarvedStones So, the best is to compare it with Crysis 1. =D
The fact that they didn’t bring back the arcade mode is heavily disappointing.
Probably will be added later.

The only thing I’d pick up on this video is that you can load your weapons with armour piercing rounds across the board and they’re prett effective against all enemy types.
I personally like that you have to explore and find gunpowder and can find random weapons. I think 5 had very little progression compared to the other games, this was a way to bring that back.
Let's be honest though it was both fc5 and 6 were absolutely garbage compared to fc 3 and 4. 3 was honestly the best and had much MUCH more to do than the later installments.
I gotta say dude you do the best game comparison's out there!.
I like your review, but I just don't get what's so "tedious" about FarCry 5's story progression in relation to the resistance meter. If anything, it actually fills up TOO QUICKLY. I remember getting abducted for a mission, then after I finished that particular mission, I drove towards the next side mission I want to do, killing enemies and rescuing folks along the way, thus earning resistance points. And before I even got to the destination, I got marked for abduction again. It was so stupid.
But true.. the resistance meter was a pain in the ass, either way, and should have never been put in the game.
Facts. I filled mine up too quickly as well. And I must say that I did enjoy FC5 immensely.
I think he meant the whole process of "do random side activities" and "get kidnapped constantly" was the tedious part, not that it took too long or anything.
It either took forever to fill or too quickly.
It felt unnatural as well. With random snatching and the "chosen" would only activate per region
Here when you clap someone. It makes the ENTIRE island go into a higher alert status. Not just your local area. And they're are still patrols. Which I like. 5 after you beat one the entire area was empty. No more enemies.
Here you do it there's more. They're far more aggressive.
I thought that the first time I played FC5. The difficulty setting should determine how quickly or how slowly the resistance meter fills up. On replays I purposely do not rescue townspeople in vans or other events that fill up the resistance meter just so the whole thing lasts longer.
FC5 is definitely the shortest far cry game for me due to how quick the resistance meter fills up. The main problem for this is the side activities like saving a civillian, blowing up a cult vehicle or killing a cult VIP. They all give too many points. If I can get 400 points for liberating an outpost but get 50/100 points everytime I save a civillian or kill a high value target, that starts to add up quick.
I'd also argue that the total amount of points needed to complete a region is also too low as it doesn't give you enough time to enjoy each mission (not to mention some missions can be flat out missed). I had only explorered half of jacobs and faiths region before the resistance meter was filled leaving several missions unplayed. Most players after completing a region wouldn't care to go back and do the missions they missed because there's no more feeling of progression when more can be done in another region.
That's my biggest problem with this game. Even if there's mods that alter the resistance points rewarded, a casual player wouldn't use this. This wouldn't be a huge issue if all the cult spawns didn't disappear after liberating a region
"the performance regularly fluctuates between 80 and 50 at times"
my old ass monitor: i don't have such weaknesses
True, you can't change ammo types for a weapon on the fly, but you can switch between weapons with different ammo types in the 'arsenal' menu.
I zoomed out the map and was blown away by the size. Seeing the other mass of land
Ik I am shocked
The map design is clearly copied from AC Odyssey in that regard, when you start on a little island then there is this gigantic world after lol.
Games arent like cocks ....... Bigger doesn't = better lmao ubisoft hasn't figured this out
Yes but look how empty the streets are
That means nothing to me. I don't want a big but empty map. World size doesn't make it a good map.
Always appreciate how thorough your videos are!
I wonder if FC team fixed the enemy spawns... it was trash from FC2 and was recently improved, but with the introduction of prop planes in FC5, you can see the limitation of spawns when you strafe against enemies and come back to the same spot and they respawn as if nothing happened.
You only forgot, that the main character actually talk and makes him/her more alive and connected than the mute bland character selection of FC5
Dani even sings along to the song on the radio, a little detail, but makes the character more alive as well
I personally enjoyed the silent protagonist from 5, I was able to apply myself to the character more than if my character was voiced.
@@malakanik-gw1vh I think for the conversation, it is better, when the main vilain talks to you, it feels more alive like you aren't just a camera with arms and a rifle.
Probably because they don't plan on doing a direct sequel like they did with New Dawn where they'd have to carry the character over and would never know if it was a man or woman you chose. I'm fine with this.
Bro the division 1-2 agents just stand there like no voice, no noises, just silent killing ;-;
The ammo thing sounds like a deal breaker. I hate bullet sponge enemies
The problem to me is not the bullet sponges, is the way it forces you to use this type of ammo, you are forced to use one different for each of the four slots if you want to kill everything on your way, that means you will end up empty of ammo faster on some types of ammo, I think ammo should be added as a wheel selector for every weapon, so you can change ammo when you need it, not mod the ak for armor pearcing and be stuck with that XD. It's nonsense.
Yeah that mechanic still concerns me.
Personally, just stick to armour piercing. Most enemies are armoured and enemies that aren’t can be ripped apart anyways (headshots too)
That and the leveled up enemy thing. The last game i played like that got so annoying i just stopped playing. Idk why this game even needs that
@@ninjascroll1017 its not remotely close to being as extreme as new dawn, dont worry too much
Glad they reverted back to the OG and better weapon view model....Never liked FC5's View model.
Apparently you can fix that in the settings for FC5,but the fact that that’s the default view model is just incredible…
Yes, you can just switch that in settings.
what was wrong with it, it felt unique from other fps games and actually felt realistic :(
Fc5 has the option so it’s not really a deal breaker.
@@arnavjoshi7047 for me the weird part of it in FC5 was that the crosshairs were in the lower third of the screen instead of centered. Some other games that did this were Halo 3 and Halo Reach. Recently, Deathloop had the lowered crosshairs. Most modern FPS games have centered crosshairs. I prefer centered. Lowered crosshairs make it look like you’re looking slightly up to the sky all the time.
In FC5, when you want to go down, you have to either walk down the hill or use your wingsuit. You may slide down but very slowly. In FC6, sliding down to the bottom is so fast and the newest detail I wanted.
i never comment on videos but bro i just wanna say well done on all of these comparison videos that you do, you always go into so much detail its every single one of them, even if i dotn know the game, is still so interesting
11:49 awwww so I'm guessing this means I can't stroll into a town and repeatedly down an essential npc with infinitely spawning baseball Bats and shovels

The flame thrower import six Tightens the flame The same as part five as long as you pull the trigger like you’re aiming down the scope it follows the flame so it’s not so widespread. It only fires wide if you don’t hold L trigger while you’re shooting with right trigger
Are you sure your FC5 wasn't set to aiming reticule offset? because both games have the centered/offset option with allows for a better view of your surroundings when put on offset.
it was in the settings in FC5, you could select centered or offset
@@bpm9295 it in 6 too
@@crowned2088 lol you're right, and looking back at my response I don't have a clue why I felt it necessary to post this at all. OP literally already said this exact thing.
My biggest issue with the game so far are the bullet sponges. It's not fun fumbling around your weapon wheel trying to remember which gun had the soft-target rounds or poison rounds or whatever. I've resorted to just exclusively using the DMR you get early on because you can 1 shot kill everything if it's in the head.
2 minutes into the video and it is already quite remarkable, I like what they did in 5 with how scenic it is (even in comparison to other titles in the franchise), minimising the HUD and placing the player’s POV slightly above the weapon so that as much of the actually surroundings can be seen on screen
You can switch ammo type from the weapon wheel, and there's a quick swap button. Did they fix it?
I keep forgetting how good the graphics were in fc5
They weren't good at all, maybe from a distance, but the plants and grass up close.... seriously ugly like hell.
The protagonist has a voice. That alone makes it better than FC5.
"Say what you will about Mr. California but atleast he had some personality"
I heard that the protagonist barely have an interaction with the villain.
@@johnathanpowell8834 3 with the villain to be precise. But that doesn't mean you don't see the villain... I'm not gonna spoil it. But you will see.
@@Kvs-vf9nt Oh alright, thanks for letting me know.
I subscribed after this video. I was really on the fence about this game. The things I really wanted to see in a review video were revealed. Great job 👏
There does seem to be ways to progress very well, but failing to find something useful or failing to engage in the sub-game and to recruit leaders for it - can seemingly leave a player under leveled for a long time.
There is some chest with some very nice stuff "just laying around" such as in loot chests you can just drive too in the city - and not have to fight anyone. or the top of a light house - or hidden in the special operation dinosaur park next to the pterodactyl. You can do some minor questing to get additional pets too. I think if someone really wanted to streamline their play an minimise their pain the info is out there - and heck if you are feeling nutty you can grab a tank really early on too.
I agree the supremo backpacks are a bit strange in the way they are implemented and I do personally like Far Cry 3's hunting to make extra capacity slots and the like feature more than Crafting of EVERYTHING- not that I hate crafting - i'd just likely forget to do it - like I forget to pick up herbs in the other games.
I think Far Cry 6 is the better game myself, there’s more to do and the villain is more memorable, the only thing i hate is having to constantly switch weapons and ammo for enemies, it kills the flow a bit 😊
The ammo swapping sounds super tedious…
My feet
@@wrenboy2726 it is but other than that, its far more enjoyable than For Cry 5 for me
you only really need to do it if you're playing on harder difficulties
@@xecob I switched it to Story Mode difficulty because of it
The only and big issue I have with fc6- the bullet mechanic. In FC5 you could change the ammo type on the fly, or at least in new dawn. In FC6 you must customize the gun to fire different rounds.
In the latest patch for far cry 6 you can now change the ammo type whenever you want.
Great video, lots of details I was curious about. Your efforts are appreciated.
Ty for this video.
Do u play with HD texture pack on?
And fx fidelity on ultra quality?
Having access to every weapon you have at any time in the arsenal menu is a greatly appreciated feature. Only being able to choose your loadout at stores was annoying.
Super immersive yeah.
Wait, where did he talk about this? Can you reply with a timestamp?
You can really change a weapon loadout from the menu and basically have unlimited weapon slots, instead of 4?
Sad that we can't no longer change bullet types on the fly. Was tragically important.
@@adrianratiu9375 super helpful, the game is still immersive
Surprised he didn’t have a hunting system section, definitely feels different
They got the whole level system from New Dawn that feels more like an RPG that locks areas behind levels.
If only the fire propagation effect area from 2 was reconstructed for FC6, maybe even sped up a bit as well, I can only imagine how chaotic and lethal the jungle of Yara could feel in the dead of night, pitch black, completely surrounded by mercenaries and flames racing towards you. Could also use a no minimap play through too
I like far cry 5 fov more i thought it looks much more cinematic with it, like we're not playing call of duty and i just don't like being shoved the gun details just for the sake to be seen, i really hope they give the option to change it.
gotta say farcry 5 still looks pretty amazing.
Nope
You can switch ammo types from the weapon wheel in FC6. The game even tells you this.
You can scan the cars with your phone to add them to garage as well
Fc6 releases and tadda we have a comparison video, btw are you going to compare 2042 with vanguard both have disappointed me tbh
I actually really like the camp system and their upgrades
They updated it now to where you CAN select different ammo types instantly from the weapon wheel. Fantastic change, it's so much better now.
Best review i have ever seen so far 😃, spectacular job bro.
Really loved the video.
It was absolutely spoiler free, informative and logical.
I haven't watched a single fc6 video to avoid spoilers, but when your video popped on recommended I clicked on it faster than I close p.... well you know.
JESUS CHRIST THIS GUY IS FAST

@@zakish222 I smarter guy wouldn't dare to say that
He got the game earlier
@Nick, Don't forget in the Settings comparison, 6 finally has divided Sound sliders! And the HUD toggles! :D
The thing with the ammotype switch is now fixed now you can change the ammotype in the weaponweel
Yet another game will better with a patch or two - and double so if it had mod support (this game has some issues that mods could fix - like that ammo stuff).
Wow, I'm glad I saw this video... that "specific ammo for specific targets" is a deal-breaker for me... You've saved me the frustration and $90, so thanks!
Just load armour piercing rounds in all your weapons, and you’re good to go against all enemies. I’ve never used the “soft target” rounds on anything. The poison, fire and explosive rounds come in handy, occasionally. Also, you can swap out fully modded weapons, on the go, so have one weapon set up with armour piercing and another weapon, in reserve, with whatever ammo you need… it’s like being able to change ammo, but you’re changing the whole weapon
@Sal huh..... you can change loadout any time. Just not the attachments on the weapons.
I have never had a problem. This video is really extreme. You don't need different ammo for different enemies. Play the game yourself and you'll see. Such a shame peopel let 1 video make decisions for them.
*_"that "specific ammo for specific targets" is a deal-breaker for me... You've saved me the frustration and $90, so thanks!"_*
You're and idiot, based on that comment, the ammo is no issue at all, you clearly don't know the game and make a decision based on a lack of knowledge.
I was not planning on watching this entire video. Very thoughtfully layed out and well spoken comparison!
Great video! Hey Nick930, when Horizon Forbidden West and God Of War Ragnarok come out, could you make a comparison between the previous game and the new one on PS4 or PS4 Pro? I would really like to see if there is any hardware-independent improvement.
It seems to me that FC5 looks much more real in all aspects compared to FC6, everything absolutely in FC6 looks beautiful but very cartoon, the characters, movements, pets, I don't like to be his judge, The shadows and lights in the characters and especially the realism that FC5 has is much better
Your right
Exactly, I said the same in the previous comments. Why the game developers didn't happen to know these things.
Obviously Farcry 6 need more Vram for that
Far cry 6 is wacky and goofy
you’re crazy
There's something about almost every recent Ubisoft game that make the textures look muddy, AC Valhalla suffered a lot from this, riders republic, far cry 6 etc all seem to have the same issue. It's hard to put my finger on what exactly it is but the games just don't have a clean graphical look.
Thank god the minimap is back, i hate those compasses.
Great video dude!
The biggest issue with the special ops mode, is that there is no direct exit, once you’ve completed a mission…you are either forced through a screen where you are offered Game Pass plans (no “No Thanks” option), or back into starting a new mission. The only way, I’ve found, to exit the special ops, is to start a new mission, then go to the system menu and exit the mission….really frustrating!
I'm two hours into Far Cry 6, and the deja vu is just endless. It's as if these two games were made at the same time and released 3 years apart.
Idk what ur playing. It feels more like farcry 4 than farcry 5, which is so much goodness. although I do miss guns for hire.
The game does look great overall - I wasn't expecting as much vegetation density and small detailing over Far Cry 5, so they delivered there. I can't believe they didn't add an option for chromatic aberrations though - whilst checking out the scenery I find it so distracting to see that blurry colour fringing around the edges of the screen. In general I quite like the vibrant lighting even though it's not so natural, but some of those sunrises / sunsets are a bit too excessive, as are the bloom effects that accompany them.
The good thing is you do not need to worry about everything. If you focus on just a few aspects on the combat system you likely will do just fine. Also do to the headshot mechanic the ammo is not as big of a deal. Plus just mixing in enough stealth to soften the targets is enough for most players to then finish things off guns a blazing. I have only player parts of Far Cry 2 and 3. Far Cry 4 never seemed to interest me. Far Cry 5 looked better and while I never did get around playing I have watched others play. Far Cry 6 looks WAY more my style. I personally wish there were FAR less cut scenes. Most are not needed as you are just walking in to talk to someone. I also do not like the 3rd party in the camp as I like 1st person only (single player and either RPG or maybe survival).
I think fc 5 balanced everything the best, classic.
Ubisoft games are really starting to merge together these days. Far cry, Division, Ghost Recon, even Assassins creed all feel like similar games just in slightly different formats and settings. But overall the UI, Crafting, Gear Grind, Levelling etc, just so many features between all their games feel almost identical to another one these days.
Far Cry 6 and Ghost Recon: Breakpoint, for example, can legitimately be mistaken for each other. We are seemingly edging closer and closer to the Ultimate Ubisoft Simulator.
If you keep replaying the intro it seems to have an higher pitch every time.
Also, it has a really good sound design! That’s why I was replaying it in the first place.
If u have installed all the amo types for 1 gun, u can switch through any of them just from the weapon wheel
I just think the overall premise of 5 is better. The whole
"What is the player's motivation?" is way clearer in 5 in
that all your fellow deputies and the marshall have
been kidnapped by cultists. Plus the fact that it's clear
from the opening cutscene exactly why you are in
Hope County to begin with. In 6 you have no real
personal reason to be invested, other then "Oh no he
shot up our boat and almost drowned me'. I get that
it's Dani's home country but the dynamic between her
and Anton isn't even as good as the one between
Joseph Seed and a mute protagonist.
Absolutely! 5 went against the stereotype, 6 is nothing but stereotypes.
a game with mute protagonist is a thumbs down. period

Fallout New Vegas fans would like to have a word with you
@@KingSolidTails are you sure they want to have a "WORD" with me which require SPEAKING?
@@AbdurRahim-ep5qv
Fair 'nough. They would like to have a written out conversation via text on a screen filled with charismatic sarcasm with you that'll either win you over or make you despise them even more.
