Far Cry 3 Redux may be the ultimate way to experience this modern classic, all things considered. This overhaul mod revamps a variety of features and gameplay choices in the first contemporary Far Cry release, outright making it better.
It’s no secret that Far Cry 3 is a good game, but fans did have a few qualms with some of Ubisoft’s design choices. The Redux mod essentially alleviates those issues, making it a must.
Far Cry 3 Redux isn’t a total overhaul like Squad’s Space Crew, but an enhancement for the base gameplay experience already in place. To paint a solid picture of what this mod does, here’s the feature list:
- disabled auto reload
- improved weapon model FOV
- rebalanced crafting
- altered weapon range stats and ballistics
- improved and simplified compass UI
- removed intrusive World icons
- removed crouch icon
- removed object shimmer/blinking
- added more weapon attachments
- adjusted store prices
- simplified button prompts
- added camouflage outfits
- longer view distance
- more rainfall and stormy weather
- unlocked extra weapons
- supports Steam, Uplay, and retail versions
- supports DirectX9 and DirectX11
- removed blur from distant islands
- trimmed the intro sequence
According to the author of the mod, Far Cry 3 Redux focuses primarily on delivering a fun and balanced gameplay experience, streamlining unnecessary features and functions and trimming the fat where necessary.
