I highly recommend picking this one up. Even the MP is suppose to be good in this one. Besides it a great RPG'ish-like game (you level up and gain new abilities) and it's quite a sandbox. Comes out today!

I went back and started playing FC3 to gear up for this game. I forgot how annoying Jason was in FC3.

I'm really feeling this game so far. I would highly recommend picking it for newcomers to the series if you have a PS4 since this is one the best games on the market.

"Far Cry 4 Players Accidentally Reveal They Pirated the Game
Field-of-view omission affects torrented copy of Ubisoft's latest FPS.

by Rob Crossley on November 19, 2014

A group of Far Cry 4 owners have inadvertently revealed they have pirated the game by discussing one of its glitches online.

Ubisoft has found a way to ensure that certain Far Cry 4 torrents contain an error which remove's the game's field-of-view controls. Without those controls, which are available on legitimately purchased versions, the picture can become blurred and distorted.

Now, after numerous players have publicised their grievances with this bug, a developer at Ubisoft has revealed the true reason for the problem.

Alex Hutchinson, a creative director at Ubisoft Montreal, wrote on Twitter: "PC players! If you're online complaining about the lack of FOV control ... You pirated the game."

The Far Cry 4 trick is the latest in a series of pranks that developers play on those who try to illicitly download their games.

In September, Electronic Arts spliced a bug into pirate copies of The Sims 4 where the image becomes increasingly pixellated.

Other developers have demonstrated more pleasure from dishing pirates their comeuppance. In 2010, a pirated copy of Serious Sam 3 added an invincible, giant scorpion mutant that hounded the player for the remainder of the game."

I liked the one they did in C&C Generals. In skirmish missions all of your units/structures would explode 5-10 minutes after starting.

But seriously: they had time to ADD a piracy prevention "bug," but released the game with nearly unplayable mouse acceleration issues. For that I say they deserve to have their stuff pirated.

The complaint that has me holding off is that I hear many people are having to uninstall/unplug USB devices to get the game to work. I'm seeing that on the official forums but I guess this could be another bug they introduced in the pirate version.

^ That's actually just a bug, not intentional. The game crashes out if you have a "Game Controller" connected.

I'm glad to see they didn't carry the tripping over an anthill makes you lose half your health feature over from FC3.

Of course that was replaced by:

This game reinforced my opinion that I can basically only play GTA and MGS 'franchise' games at this point.

I have not finished it yet. It ran dry for me since there is pretty much nothing to do in it's beautiful big world. I'm sure I'll pick it up and finish it so I can sell it to Amazon.
