The new part of the Far Cry series continues the ideas of its predecessors, but this time the project has got a lot of small changes. If you have already passed Far Cry 5 a long time ago or are not familiar with the series, then the passage may cause specific difficulties in the first couple.
We decided to highlight some essential tips to make the passage more comfortable and help you get the most out of Far Cry 6.
Don’t save resources
Let’s start with a simple tip to help most Far Cry 6 players finally enjoy the gameplay. There are a lot of different resources that are needed to modify weapons. So, it would help if you did not get hung up on collecting all the rubbish you need for crafting.
If at first, it seems to you that there are catastrophically few resources and you don’t understand what to do to finally open the very sight or a new type of cartridge for your assault rifle, then in just a couple of hours, the situation will change. You need to go through a few story quests, but it’s better to get out of the first island and set off to free Yara to forget about the lack of resources finally.
In the future, there will be so many of them that you can easily improve all the guns in your arsenal and even start building new buildings at the rebel base. Resources will be lying around literally everywhere: from the same shelters of the freedom fighters of Yara to outposts, of which there are dozens on the map. Forget about saving, play and enjoy the process – resources will appear!
Stop playing treasure hunter.
Far Cry 6 is no longer possible to pick up weapons from dead opponents, so to upgrade your arsenal, you will either have to buy them in stores or look for chests. Many players immediately give up on quests and turn into treasure hunters upon learning of this. It is better not to do this because you will start wasting time and stop enjoying the gameplay.
The fact is that not all chests contain weapons or equipment. Accordingly, you can spend a couple of hours searching for that very “treasure” and find that there are resources in 3-4 chests in a row. As a result, you have deprived yourself of fun and have not moved a single step on the main plot.
And the chests here are located in a variety of places and, as a rule, you need to understand how to get to each of them to open it. In general, do not engage in thoughtless treasure hunting; open those chests that will come across during the task. This way, you will find good weapons and armor in any case, but the game will not turn into a routine.
You can go to the red zone!
Periodically, as you progress through the campaign, you will encounter such a situation that the level of opponents in certain zones becomes higher than yours. In this case, the location is marked in red, but this is not a reason to stop completing tasks and go to capture outposts to level up.
The fact is that in Far Cry 6Enemies are pretty weak. Despite their rating, you can easily kill them with headshots. In fact, apart from increased health, opponents from the red zone are no different from those in the gray. And you can learn how to put headshots in just a couple of hours skillfully. When one of the zones on the map turns red, you will learn how to shoot at the heads. So do not be afraid of this “terrifying” designation of the area; feel free to take tasks in the red zones and go through them.
Don’t focus on Supremo backpacks.
The Supremo backpacks are a new weapon in the game that is best used to attack multiple enemies or vehicles. However, apart from this useful feature, they do not stand out in anything else, and personally, I recommend not to make a special bet on this element of your arsenal.
At first, the Supremo backpack will generally seem useless because it does too little damage. When the enemies begin to weaken along the way, then with one volley from your satchel, it will be possible, for example, to shoot down enemy helicopters, but this is where the useful functions of this weapon end. The same tanks cannot be destroyed with their help. In any case, you will have to carry a rocket launcher with you.
You just have to run around with a rocket launcher.
I believe that in Far Cry 6, everyone should carry a rocket launcher as a secondary weapon and not a sniper rifle or a useless flamethrower. You will have to fight with “bare hands” with military equipment all the time. Moreover, helicopters and tanks will most often interfere with the release of Yara. As you understand, both of these vehicles cannot be destroyed with a machine gun, pistol, or rifle.
Fortunately, in Far Cry 6, you have a bottomless arsenal, so there was a place for a rocket launcher in the pockets of the protagonist. Always put it in the third slot, and then you will not have any problems with military equipment. It is most effective to use such weapons against tanks, which, in my opinion, are the most difficult enemy in the game.
No more sound!
After clearing 2-3 outposts, you will most likely notice that as soon as you start shooting, help will arrive at the enemies in a couple of minutes. If you don’t understand what’s going on, I’ll explain. At each point, which belongs to the soldiers of El Presidente, there is an alarm with a control panel. The enemies in the game are so insecure that if you kill one, one of the soldiers will run like a scalded man to call for help, even if, at the moment, there are 10 of them against one.
To get rid of the help and not waste time destroying several waves of enemies at once, I recommend immediately understanding where the alarm is located. Unfortunately, it is not marked on the map, so you will have to look for towers with horns to which special shields with a switch are connected. So, instead of turning off the alarm, which takes a lot of time, shoot at the shield. One bullet and the alarm won’t bother you anymore.
Armor-piercing rounds are the best in the game.
Far Cry 6 offers many options for weapon modifications, which can make it better in one way or another. At the same time, if we choose the type of cartridges, we need to take armor-piercing ones and forget about all the others. The thing is, they don’t make any sense. Even if you thought that, logically, poison bullets and napalm should be the most effective, in reality they are of no use, and they do much less damage than regular ammo.
As for the armor-piercing ones, with their help you will begin to inflict colossal damage to enemies and mow them right and left with almost no pauses. In addition, in the later stages of the game, enemies begin to pull on all the armor that is only available on Yar. You can continue to kill them with such bullets, forgetting that El Presidente’s associates put on heavy armor.
Don’t waste time improving your car.
In the game, you have your car, which can be improved and fitted with various decorative elements. This is a rather exciting mechanic that everyone will obviously like at first, but gradually you will begin to understand that there is no point in playing Xzibit too much and pumping the car.
Whichever turret you put in or whichever front bumper you choose won’t solve anything in a fight. The fact is that your car begins to fall apart literally from a couple of bursts from a machine gun, and if a tank hits it once, then you will instantly go to the next world. So please stop turning the car into a murder weapon; use it as a regular vehicle; that’s the only thing it’s good at.
Adios Amigos
The token with animal helpers, here called Amigos, looks interesting, but it has no advantages. The fact is that four-legged fighters are useless on the battlefield and, at the same time, constantly attract the attention of soldiers before they need to. For example, it is difficult to complete at least one stealth mission with Amigos because when he approaches the first enemy, he comes across, he will attack him. As a result, shooting will begin, someone will call for help, and your “secret” sweep will go down the drain for Amigos.
Summoning animals are solely for the sake of someone running with you. In combat, they are useless and perform worse than any weapon in your arsenal. So forget that there are Amigos and don’t waste time resurrecting them. As soon as you raise this stupid partner on his paws, he will die again after a couple of minutes because the Amigos also have obvious health problems. Accordingly, in the vastness of the Yara, one has only to rely on oneself and one’s trunks.
Well, Coop-Land, of course, recommends playing exclusively in co-op because running alone is boring. Here you can easily find your partner!
If you follow all these tips from the beginning of the passage, you will reach the very end without any problems and free Yara from the terrible dictator.
