Far Cry is all about creating mayhem within a giant sandbox. The next evolution of that approach would be implementing destructible environments. Imagine being able to blow up an entire house and expose all the enemies within. Destroying the buildings around you would never stop being fun. How about attaching C4 to your jeep, speeding towards a building, and then jumping out at the last second? Cover could also eventually be chipped away from gunfire, causing you to constantly be on the move. Many modern shooters have destructible cover, so Far Cry would need to get with the ti Something that Far Cry 5 did bring back from Far Cry 2 was the buddy system , but in many ways it was a stripped down version of what it used to be. The buddy system in Far Cry 2 was an integral part of the gameplay, rather than just a companion who could assist in battle. Any time a pivotal story mission was about to occur, players would receive a call from their best buddy offering an alternate way to complete the mission. Then these side characters would actively take part in main story missions, helping assist the player for a more favorable outcome through specific tactical scenarios. Buddies also had permadeath, meaning if a buddy becomes gravely injured during one of these missions, they can be gone for the rest of the g Recent Far Cry games have been masterful in weaving the series' signature insanity into the narrative to make characters and the story more intimidating or exciting. But gameplay elements in recent entries have just felt like good shooters, not necessarily an insane experience. Obviously adding more "insanity" to the gameplay would need to be handled with some nuance, considering gun durability and the high enemy encounter rate in Far Cry 2 saw plenty of complaints. That said, adding elements of unpredictability that influences player vulnerability could help to mix up the gameplay and provide more of a challenge. Games like Breath of the Wild incorporated vulnerable gameplay mechanics in interesting ways, so Far Cry 6 could easily do something simi We have no idea when they will announce Far Cry 6 , but there are some things we have on our wishlist _ . _ While the _ Far Cry _ games have been received fairly positively, there are some aspects of the series that could be improved (or outright taken out). Here are ten things we hope Ubisoft inclu Since its called Far Cry , the weather should have an effect on gameplay. Think about how crazy it would be to deal with weather hazards such as rain, snow, and storms. Assuming Far Cry 6 takes place on an island, Ubisoft could introduce intense tropical storms that cause limited visibility and strong wi What's more fun than hitting the high seas? The answer to that is hitting the high seas with your friends. In Ubisoft's Skull & Bones _ , that's what players will have a chance to do, becoming pirates and coming together to band against other pirates to determine who gets to control the seas. The game will have players setting sail in a unique environment that will allow captains to use wind speed and direction as an advantage in battle. Players can also collect a variety of ships, as well as participate in Loot Hunts to gain more riches. This one should go pop over to this site well, particularly with fans of _Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag , which inspired the new tit As part of Far Cry 2 's heavy emphasis on player freedom, the game implemented a number of ways for players to tackle outposts or missions throughout the game. One of which was the 24 hour simulation of time, and the use of safe houses throughout the world. Players could utilize safe houses to rest and pass the time, as well as restock any morphine or ammo supplies. Passing time also dynamically manipulated the world in various ways, such as passing the time for a guard shift change at an outpost or waiting until nightfall to infiltrate an enemy encampment. Granted Far Cry 2 's stealth mechanics were a bit rudimentary compared to later iterations, but there was still a genuine advantage for stealth-oriented players when they rested until nightt In this case, it makes sense considering there's no The Crew or Splinter Cell title coming anytime soon from the little bits of information Ubisoft has given so far. It's definitely unfortunate for those holding out for a new Splinter Cell , one of Ubisoft's most demanded-to-return franchises, but the aforementioned lineup does sound promis Even though Ubisoft will see the release of another highly anticipated franchise this year in Assassin's Creed Valhalla , there's another series fans are still waiting on. Just like seemingly every other Ubisoft franchise currently, it seems an entry in the Far Cry series will be on the way in the near future. Major delays aside, the fever dream shooter series is purported to be one of the many confirmed titles coming in Ubisoft's upcoming fiscal y Another region that is more realistic and in high demand is Australia . There's the old adage that "everything in Australia wants to kill you," which would make a ton of sense for Far Cry 6 . Whether it's the wildlife like cassowaries, snakes, crocodiles, and sharks or the intense weather like droughts, storms, and bushfires, there's a lot that can be said about the environment of Australia playing a huge role in the g
