Here you’ll find information on the differences between previous Far Cry games and Far Cry 5.

The video above highlights a few of the more notable changes to the series’ formula. Below you’ll find more details on these as well as more subtle updates.

No More Towers

The most notable update to Far Cry 5 is the absence of the radio towers that became a series staple after Far Cry 3.

Now, instead of climbing a tower and adding all of the “to-do” items on your map, you gain information on nearby activities or items by interacting with the world around you. This can be anything from the simple act of looking at a deer crossing sign to make a new hunting spot, to liberating a van full of prisoners who warn you about a heavily-guarded outpost just up the road.

Aircraft

While you won’t find any F-15s or Harriers in Hope County, there addition of planes and helicopters adds a considerable amount of variety to your travel options and combat strategies.

Fast Travel Points

In previous Far Cry adventures, to unlock a Fast Travel point, you were required to liberate an outpost or fortress before it could be used.

While the outposts around Hope County do have their own fast-travel points, you’re no longer limited to fast travel just between liberated outposts. As you drive, boat and fly around the map, you’ll notice blue location markers reveal themselves as you pass by - these may also be used as fast travel points, making getting around much more convenient.

Vehicular Fast Travel

Similarly, you’re now able to fast travel while in a vehicle, and if that vehicle is a land vehicle (car, truck, or ATV), you’ll usually spawn with it at your new location.

It seems not to always work when going to locations without a nearby road, but it’s still a helpful feature.

Guns For Hire Skills

The marketing for Far Cry 5 leaned heavily on the Specialist guns for higher (Boomer, Nick Rye, Cheeseburger, etc), but the normal hired guns have also received a major update.

No longer are your guns for higher just a random group of rebels in a jeep - the citizens of Hope County all have their own skills and specialties, like sniping or melee combat. You can tell what type of soldier a new recruit is thanks to the icon that appears to their name when you speak with them, as well as on the Roster screen.

Specialists

That said, the Specialists are incredibly useful in combat as well - though some moreso than others depending on the situation.

Cheeseburger and Boomer, for example, might make an awesomely deadly duo when invading an outpost, but they don’t fare too well against armored vehicles or attack aircraft.

Hurk, on the there hand, is an expert (to use the term loosely) when it comes to dealing with enemy vehicles, and Nick Rye is great at keeping enemy hunters off your tail.

No More Special Takedowns

Don’t worry- the chain, sidearm and distance takedowns are still very much alive in Far Cry 5, but mercifully absent is the need to unlock the ability to perform takedowns from above and below, or against certain types of enemies.

No Crafting Upgrades

Crafting still exists in Far Cry 5, but its importance to your progression in the game is much reduced. Instead of having to collect 4 rabbit skins and some fish bones to make a bigger ammo bag, you simply purchase the relevant perk (I.e. close combat mastery, which lets you carry more handgun ammo and melee weapons) with he perk points you’ve acquired.

Instead, you now craft homeopathic medicine, explosives, and other thrown weapons with materials you loot from around the world.
