In other Far Cry 5 news, players have created classic multiplayer maps from other games in the Arcade mode, and a game-breaking bug is causing players to have to start the game over. If you missed the game’s launch trailer, you can check that out here.
I don’t know what it is, I’m just having trouble getting into farcry. Cleared one area and haven’t come back to it yet. God of War didn’t help lol
Love this game and this update is a good start to identifying and fixing glitches but it’s not the patch I was hoping for. They need to take larger steps in fixing the Resistance Points system and need to do a lot more to fix the Multiplayer and the Private lobbies.
