it's VERY hard to compliment this game without sounding pretentious, but the immersion on offer here is just unmatched... one of few open world types that doesn't devolve into pure self-indulgent power fantasy, the world is unforgiving, unpredictable and even with the best gear you're completely at the hands of your surroundings. i only wish the rest of the series was more like this

The game is good but it's almost unplayable on modern PCs. I had to install something called multifixer just to run the game and had to lock it to 60 fps so the NPCs wouldn't bounce around like they're using pogo sticks and it still crashes constantly. What's even worse is it often crashes while you're saving so the save file gets corrupted and if you only used one save slot throughout the whole game, you're doomed. I learned this the hard way and had to start all over again. I tried using the quick save feature but that seemed to crash my game even more. It may be an old game but you still gotta fix it if you're charging money for it. Especially if you're a big ass company like Ubisoft. Half-Life came out in 1998 and it still runs fine on modern hardware.

Make sure to keep trying out different guns so the missions don't get repetitive. Anything with fire makes the game super fun simply because of the fire spreading mechanic, you can literally create hell at will. Flamethrower forever.

it crashes constantly... not able to fix
game is amazing so it deserves a good review but I don't wanna have to make 100 adjustments to figure out which thing will fix the game.

Far Cry 2 is an amazing game with themes inspired from complicated works such as "Heart of Darkness", a gritty atmosphere, and challenging gameplay that makes the rest of the Far Cry series look like Childs play. But I'm leaving a negative review because this is game has game-breaking bugs in it. I lost all of my progress because I wasn't able to get anymore pills (even though the mission was still active) and I kept dying to Malaria. Even when I loaded a save point before that mission, it still wouldn't let me get the pills. Great game, horrible bugs.

I'd love to play it, but steam failed to cloud-save my 30 hour playthrough. Got a new PC, and I can't even get through the long opening sequence without crashing. It's an old game, there's going to be issues; but if you're charging money for it, it had better be at least moderately playable.
It isn't.
