So how is the map? Is it just a Far Cry Island with futuristic lights, or buildings/structers are in there?

You can't save while on a mission (It has some check point system there I believe but I don't remember.) and in Far Cry 3 you were always reverted back to the nearest safe outpost when you loaded the save, but yeah pressing F9 or saving from the main menu can be done from anywhere otherwise. Smile

Yay! Just like the main game, this one has such random performance. Yesterday it ran absolutely fine. Today, on the same settings (they're quite high to be honest, which is why I was so surprised yesterday about the performance) it runs like complete shit. Changing from DX11 to DX9 also does nothing apparently, unlike in the main game.

Try running it as an administrator maybe? Maybe some problem with the crack? From what I understand there's also one from 3DM, so trying that might help. It might be the same as the P2P one though. Other than that, I've got no idea. No problems here though.

Yes, I'm sure the game was not going to be patched 1-day, or better yet, improved when there's still a hole fucking MONTH till release.

Seriously, I'm all for hating Ubisoft, but that's like slamming Eidos Montreal for DXHR leak and the game's performance (which was sketchy then).

A release day patch (Or a patch close after release.) seems highly likely and driver updates to account for the new exe name is also likely for those whom aren't using custom utilities to bind the existing Far Cry 3 profile to this game. Smile
(I don't really know how it works technically but the main advantage is normally SLI or Crossfire improvements but it can also fix compatibility issues or improve general performance by a bit, some special cases such as fixing massive performance hits when enabling MSAA and such can also happen.)

Just saying... given their recent track record for performance with recent releases. Not trying to bash here. Holding out to try this one till it's released. Besides isn't it the same engine as Far Cry 3 basically?

Not sure if that is your problem, but FC3 would turn on/off V-sync. for me randomly between maps, and in my case changing the performance drastically. The in game setting didn't matter.

Well, I finished it, 100% in around 8-9 hours I think:

 Spoiler:
 


This was absolutely brilliant, one of the coolest games I've played in years. And I do see it as a complete game, not an expansion. Everything in it is extremely cheesy, but in the 80s-90s kind of way. As a game it's more like Serious Sam and Duke Nukem to be honest. It's really fast with crazier combat than it usually is in today's shooters. If you think Saints Row 3 was over the top, wait until you finish this! It's not perfect, but it does what it wants to do pretty well. It would have been cool if they went full classic shooter on it.

The good things that stood out were the main missions (especially the last 2!), the soundtrack and to some extent the graphics. I also really loved how they handled the weapons and their upgrades (mostly), with fewer weapons, but more unique.

The bad things that stood out in my case was the hand-holding in the beginning (but since it's just there, it's not such a big problem), the weird difference of performance between sessions and last but not least, the difficulty of the game. Now, the only thing that they should have done in this game's case to fix that, was increase the number of enemies... increase it A LOT! Go full Serious Sam with it, maybe with more gore too!

I love this game, I really do. What makes it so amazing is also that it came out of nowhere I guess. I hope they make more stuff like this.

Oh, I didn't realize that. I don't know about that 1 weapon though. I didn't find nor did the game give me any other weapons. The rocket launcher is the only one I can think of, but I have no idea how you get it if that's the one. I know a few enemies use them, but that's it. And you can't take their weapons since they sort of explode after they die.

Edit: No idea about that crack. I don't know what crack I have since it was included into the release I downloaded, but I didn't have any problems whatsoever.

Far.Cry.3-Blood.Dragon-SC

I believe that stands for SKIDROW CRACK. I think it's a bundled release from that website that people keep believing is SKIDROW's actual website. Laughing
