ok so i kinda wanna torrent this to play some dumb shooter action and was wondering if there are any mods out that remove all of the UI crap or the stuff like how you see outlines of NPCs thru walls

alternatively is there any other RECENT single-player shooter worth playing/
Gonna have to wait on the torrent there then mi amigo since this is using the newest Denuvo. I'm gonna give it less than a month. Thankfully you can toggle off a large amount of the trash casualisation features or just not use them. On recent shooters I think the newest Womb Raider might be worth trying out. Note that I haven't played it but I did play the last one. If you are a monkey nostalgiafag retard willing to pay for rereleased chinese Unity clones of Heretic/Hexen, Quake and Duke Nuke 3D then Amid Evil, Dusk and Ion Maiden exist. I wouldn't suggest buying them at all because all that will do is keep feeding the machine of constant shit retrofag garbage but I don't care since I already did my part in that. Just Cause 3 had an abysmal release but it's only 12 euros at the moment and might be fun enough. Again I haven't played it since I avoided it due to shit performance but it's similarly just insane chaos like Just Cause 2.

edit
Very glad that the famous cuckold and bestest goyim of 3D Realms D_X already pressed the retarded button on my wrongthink opinions. Please eat shit and die.

wow, looks like it's the easiest, most popamoliest one yet. That guy liberated numerous outposts with only a wooden paddle without even trying, and without the NPC partner doing a damn thing.

Might give it a try in five years time. I refuse to support microtransaction-ridden popamole.

You don't appreciate its approach to stealth and AI?

Are you talking about (based on that video) the blind as fuck AI and the fact he got an undetected bonus even though he just ran in and threw a paddle at a couple of people? Based on that, no I do not appreciate.

It is like a remake of Thief. I bet that looking glass would have made this game if they had the technology back then.

The guy says the whole thing is too implausible because the national guard would have steamrolled the state in 24 hours. Yet, in 2016 we had this happen: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupation_of_the_Malheur_National_Wildlife_Refuge

Says the removal of "crafting" is a travesty. I always thought crafting is a meaningless grind and an excuse that the player is flooded with crazy aggressive animals.

Cant really say i find any of his reviews appealing. He plays that "straight talk" tune way too obvious and most of his points are highly opinianonated. He is not even trying to sound objective (isnt a negative thing in itself its just not my cup of tea).

Also he likes Far Cry 3 which was the worst Far Cry simply because of the bratboy protagonist. The only guy i wanted to crucify alive was myself in that game as i was appearantly playing the most retarded dipshit that has ever landed on that island.

I spent no more than 5-10 hours with a pirated Far Cry 3. I was expecting an improved Far Cry 2, so it felt even worse for me.

BTW, from Wikipedia:

Ammon's father, Cliven D. Bundy, had previously organized and led a somewhat similar incident roughly two years earlier in March 2014. Both Bundys are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and believed that their armed opposition to the federal government was ordained for them via divine messages ordering them to do so.

What are the SJW cucks whining about again, the cues FC5 takes are pretty obvious.

For those of you who aren't Americans, the rural folk represented in this game (from what I've seen in the videos) are... peculiar. They're absolutely nothing like what you'd actually expect from private militia, hillbillies, rednecks, Bible-thumpers, or pretty much anyone who actually exists.

It's all very odd, cult or no cult, as though a team of space aliens reconstructed what they thought 21st-century Montanans might be like.

Do you mean this in the sense of "my culture is being misrepresented"? :D

BTW, I read some of Erik Kain's commentary on the game before it was released. He is from Montana and at the time was very excited about the game being set there.

Not really. The entire rest of the world already has an extremely skewed notion of what the US is actually like as it is.

I'm just letting it be known that the game is profoundly inauthentic.

Well Ubishit is French company,doubt that any of the devs have seen a redneck outside of a liberal journo article and followed up wikipedia check.

Even a person like me can see the misrepresentation here,there are no fucking whales driving electrical wheelchairs. I was expecting to see something like this:

Still i kind of get it,they did chose to go for one of the slimmest state in US,it had only 25% fat people a few years back.

Please, you're welcome to explain how the game's story is totally unlike the Malheur siege blown out of proportion for dramatic effect.

As a born-and-bred Montanan, I find the portrayal of Montana beautifully ludicrous. I certainly don't remember quite so many Southern accents up there in the Northwestern mountains and prairies---Montana accents can range from pretty standard West Coast American to something a bit more Midwestern/Great Lakes-ish, but I suppose there's some hillbilly in there, too---and the state is overall much less racially diverse than Far Cry 5, though it has many more Native Americans than are represented in the game.

That's something that really drove me up the wall too. Montana is among the whitest states in America IIRC, so it's pretty ridiculous to make half the NPCs black or even worse, hispanic.

I mean Ubisoft had no problem in modifying images of Ancient Greek art to be inclusive to women, so what do you expect?

Oh, hey, it's Mack, the guy who screeched about how OP light mechs are in MWO.

Losing crafting in an FPS is not a loss, it's a gain. Putting robust crafting mechanics into a game practically demands that said game be some flavor of RPG anyway.
