My experience with Farcry 4 have been positive, only let down by its similarity to Farcry 3 and indeed other Ubisoft open world games in general. If you've played any you'll know the score, climb towers to open the map, collectibles dotted all over the place etc.

The Graphics in the game are very good, not the best ever but visually some of the landscapes are stunning. Plus you can really push your graphics features (if you have Nvidia cards) to include soft shadows, TXAA and simulated animal fur to really add some polish to the game.

Gameplay is what we have come to expect from FPS games in recent years. It is almost identical to Farcry 3 in this respect (which is no bad thing) and the cover mechanic that I thought was great from FC3 returns for FC4. Furthermore, the ability to shoot from vehicles is a well implemented addition as it was previously lacking. Overall it is mechanically very solid and entertaining shooter, the weapons are satisfying and Kyrat is a wonderful open playground to explore.

The atmosphere and story are reasonable, the atmosphere as I previously noted is aided greatly by the visuals, but the actual plot is similar to FC3, a rebellion against an authoritarian regime. The protagonist is a little bland, and his back story leads to a ludo-narrative discourse, how can some average person attempting to return his mothers ashes to her homeland be a freedom fighter/ pilot / hunter / archer and mountaineer? This disconnect is not rare in games today, but I personally always find it jarring in terms of story.

Overall its a very polished, if not similar open world FPS. Usually this similarity to other games would lower my score, but the addition of co-op has pulled it firmly into the 80 out of 100 category.

The joy and satisfaction in playing Arma 3 stems from its difficulty and complexity. It is a military simulation engineered to make you think, to plan your movements and to play the game with tactics that are seemingly inspired by 'real life' armed forces. You can step into the shoes of almost any battlefield role: soldier / sniper/ engineer / medic/ pilot / logistics / drivers/ gunners / commanders / scuba diver, all using a plethora of vehicles. This leads to a, well documented, steep learning curve. However, with the 'bootcamp' and 'showcase' game modes, which explain the many features of the simulation, you can be sure to have a good understanding of the base game mechanics in a few hours.

Following these first few hours, the real nuances begin to show. The depth and detail of the simulation demands mastery to perform well, especially in a multi-player situation where the real meat of the experience is. The practice that leads to this mastery is an often frustrating but incredibly rewarding experience. I would describe myself as an amateur after approximately 150 hours played, but I've learned enough to land a troop transport helicopter in the heat of battle, delivering 10 team mates to an objective and score points for the team. The feeling is incredible, but try the same thing too many times and other players get wise to your movements, you must adapt to survive.

Furthermore, the community of Arma 3 is amazing, it has a vibrant mod scene, often the community improves the game as much as the frequent and impressive developer updates do.

Graphically, considering the scale of the game it is impressive, with a full suite of Nvidia options such as physX and HBAO. The immersion is further improved by the quality of picture in picture, fully rendered vehicle interiors, all of which (assuming you have powerful hardware) make for a very highly detailed world.

Gameplay it is equally impressive, but I must admit it lacks a certain slick feeling you find in other less ambitious fps games, with occasional bugs. However, it is never distracting or game breaking and can be excused given the sheer scope of the game, after all how many games have at least 15 stance variations, allowing posture variations while standing, crouched and prone?

I can wholeheartedly recommend this game if you are interested in military FPS and simulation games, as it is one of the finest examples of the combination of those two genres.
