The former two are treated as the fifth and sixth weapon slots, while the latter three are thrown with a hotkey with a key to switch between them. Ajay can also carry supplies of mines, C4 packs, hand grenades, throwing knives and molotovs. Using a sufficiently large weapon on a sufficiently small animal will simply obliterate it and leave nothing at all.Īs before, ammunition is determined by weapon subtypes, not by what the weapon would actually fire, so the 5.56mm assault rifles share ammunition with the 7.62x39mm AK-103 and 7.62x51mm Galil ACE and SOCOM 16. Hunting is made more complex in 4 due to a system by which pelts can become damaged the bows, crossbow and knife will result in two pelts from one animal and a Karma bonus, while using too heavy a weapon will result in a damaged pelt with decreased value which cannot be used for crafting. Other sidearms can be equipped in the main weapon slots if this is done, the player will be able to select between these weapons while in a vehicle. This is because of the new ability to fire weapons while in vehicles, which can only be done with sidearms.
Unlike Far Cry 3 and similarly to Far Cry 2, one of these must be from the sidearm class the other three, however, can be any weapons the player chooses. In this way he can ultimately equip up to four weapons at once. By default the player character, Ajay Ghale, has one weapon slot further slots, along with additional carrying capacity for ammunition, are gained by hunting local animals and using their skins to make bandoliers, pouches and belts in the game's Crafting menu. Note: spoilers and hazardous levels of the phrase "as before" are present in some descriptions.įar Cry 4 builds on the system used in Far Cry 3, retaining similar RPG elements such as crafting and experience. The following weapons appear in the video game Far Cry 4: Since this game takes place in the Stone Age, it does not feature firearms. Finding his country under the heel of a flamboyant despot named Pagan Min, he quickly falls in with the Golden Path resistance movement, with the ultimate goal of overthrowing Min's tyrannical regime.Ī season pass is available for DLC: only the second, "The Hurk Deluxe Pack," includes any new weapons, making the three pre-order bonus guns available at stores for free.Īs with Far Cry 3 and Blood Dragon, a stand-alone game using the same engine was announced for 2016, called Far Cry Primal (sometimes Far Cry 4: Primal). The player takes on the role of Ajay Ghale, an ethnic Kyrati raised in the United States who returns to his homeland to fulfil his mother's last wish to have her ashes scattered at an obscure temple deep in the mountains. The plot of the game includes threads which show that at least the three main previous Far Cry games took place in the same world, though it does not really follow on from them, instead taking place in a fictional nation similar to Nepal, Kyrat, located in the depths of the Himalayas.
It features many of the same mechanics and weapons as its predecessor, with engine enhancements designed to take advantage of the power of next-gen consoles.
Far Cry 4 is the sequel to Far Cry 3, developed by Ubisoft and released on the PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One and PC in November of 2014.
