Ok the things this game still has are good and bad. Good things: -Campaign allowed you to approach the goal in non linear way meaning a lot of missions could be completed in multiple ways with multiple approaches meaning you want to sneak or kill everting in site. The story is cheesy it gets you in at least and you get Jack Carver the cynic to become a hero of the hour. Mixed Some of the lvls are pretty good and some are dam crap. The graphics was once boarder pushing but it shows its age. Tough for me its ok. Bad. Some ai difficulty spikes really spike hard, also in just simple installation without mods etc the enemy seas you behind cover ei if you go around tents they shoot trough it with surgical precision. All in all I do recommend this game for me its a bit nostalgic. When this was up I was starting high school, dam I'm getting old.
Still in 2026, this game is still very enjoyable. Could not stop playing the campaign ontil finished. Be careful around difficulty. "Medium" is the way to go first time. "Challenging" you can do another time, cause that ♥♥♥♥ is hard :) 8.5/10 game, and probably 10/10 for the time it was created.
As a child, this game gave me a ton of vivid emotions, and replaying it now, I was delighted to find that it still works brilliantly. Of course, modern playthroughs no longer spark that same childhood wonder, but the project is still genuinely captivating.The developers created a brilliant illusion: the game remains a linear, corridor shooter, but thanks to the massive open locations and plenty of alternate routes, it feels like a versatile and engaging open world. The freedom of tactical choice is impressive even today. The interactive environment, basic destructibility, and the physics of the water - honest for its time only deepen the immersion. In terms of gameplay, it stays sharp thanks to a solid arsenal of diverse weapons and dynamic gunfights. The artificial intelligence deserves a special mention: for its time, the local bots are surprisingly smart - they use cover effectively, flank the player, and force you to think rather than just mindlessly shoot.The only major downside for me was the abrupt shift in atmosphere during the second half of the game. The plot twist with the appearance of mutants completely breaks the original style. A tactical stealth-action game on tropical islands suddenly turns into a corridor survival - horror, which severely hurts the pacing and overall experience.Nevertheless, this is a timeless classic. To all fans of old-school shooters - I absolutely recommend playing it!
If you wonder should you play this game or no ? Hear it from someone who played it for 20 year since childhood. I can almost tell you anything you need to hear about it First let us start with CONS. cause there are some big CONS about this game which will probably make you hate it. CONS: * Ai is broken above medium difficulty, do not even try hardest one if you don't like pain. Comparing the modern game far cry ai, these guys are sharpshooter, ever vigilant cyborgs who'll kick your ass and humble you with one tap too. * Game relies on checkpoint saving system and trust me, there AREN'T many checkpoints compared to how big some of the maps are. You'll struggle when you die and sometimes you will not be able to avoid dying, especially on hard difficulties because game wants you to memorize enemies and try again. * There are some science fiction stuff and not fully realistic. but it can be counted as pro or con depending on how you look at. * Health only regens if you find a medkit, there is no regen over time system or press to heal system like modern games. * Some weapons have low ammunition, same style with half life 1, for example you can't play sniper rifle only if you like sniper rifle, like how you do in modern far cry games. Sniper rifle is a good weapon and only to be used in some hard missions where you want to shoot enemies from far away, not as main weapon but like some skill or ulti with cooldown. * There is no ironsight system, you have to use crosshair sight for non scope weapons. * Enemies are very bullet spongey on higher levels. * Rocket launcher is a bad weapon, dealing low damage on soft targets. best to be used against choppers or vecihles. * There is a classic drive and shoot, escape from enemies mission at the episode called swamp near late game. you cannot complete it at hardest difficulty without trying 1000 times and expecting ai to make a mistake. that is why the hardest difficulty is broken and you can't finish the game. In 20 years, i only managed to do finish it 2 times on hardest difficulty because that mission is broken. * Once you start a campaign, you CAN'T change difficulty midgame, you gotta RESTART ! PROS: * Good graphics and physics compared to which year it came out. * granades can make chairs, boxes move away ! and there is some hole in ground if you use rocket launcher on soil. like in bf1, creating a small crater ! * Cliche but cool story. Story is not huge... high iq... with 132123213 plotwist. but it is decent for action based game and story reveals itself gradually and myteriously which will make you like it. * Levels are good, strange places and designs, it is not just hop on in jungle, there are so many stuff in it. * Weapons have high quality of sounds and fun to shoot, different kind of modern weapons, all based in real life. * Enemies can throw you insults which can make you arrested irl. * You can even try to play stealthy with mp5sd with silencer. but i do not recommend it, it's either too easy or too hard. * Checkpoint based save system makes you feel anxious and ever vigilant cause you do not wanna lose progress. this is good or bad, depending where you look. * There are some science fiction stuff and not fully realistic. but it can be counted as pro or con depending on how you look at. * Health only regens if you find a medkit, there is no regen over time system or press to heal system like modern games. good or bad depending on how you look at. * Jack Carver is a cool character, who doesn't give a slightest ♥♥♥♥ about anything. Some sort of rick and morty with muscles and beer. * You'll feel much more challenged since many modern games based on trying to babysit the playerbase. This game does not ! this game is trying to bully you.... PLAY IT IF you want to try some old game with some challenge and a journey to the past. if you do not like challenge but you still wanna play it for the experience and story ? then play it below medium difficulty.
