Simulator of getting headshotted through three layers of fog, two mountains, and a concrete wall by a mercenary who spotted you missing a pistol shot from 800 meters away. Stealth in this game is an urban legend.

This is how hard games used to be, kids :) If you think this is hard, you should try the original ARMA (operation flashpoint) game.

-The foliage in this game from 2004 looks better than modern AAA games from 2025. -The overall presentation is still beautiful -The gunplay feels very punchy and satisfying -The story is campy, but in a good way. -Truly a great diversion from modern AAA single player campaigns. There is something here that is missing from modern AAA games. *Recommended after applying "Far Cry Fix" by MJR in the Steam guides for this game. That fix helps with modern system compatibility, quick saves, as well as fixes the AI issues the current patch of the game has. It allows for actually enjoying the vanilla experience.
