Far Cry 3 Classic edition not for FC3 owners ?
So people who own FC5 will get FC3 Classic edition, which is probably a remastered version.
I think people who own FC3 deserve the classic edition too, or atleast with a big discount.

Its not a remaster. Its only a singleplayer port to current gen consoles cause they dont have far cry 3. Its not even comming out on steam

It's only going to be for PS4 and XBOX One.
It'll only has updated textures and higher resolution.
Basically a port with Ultra graphics setting the PC version have, with maybe a bit better optimization since MSAA on PC is a bit of a mess.

Ok too bad , but why is FC3 listed on the season pass on Steam? I mean if its not for PC why bother putting it there

What do you mean by too bad? Also probably they just copy pasted the description without checking

Because the current version on Steam is having trouble with Win10 owners.
If they re-release it with updated textures and higher resolutions, i suppose it will be a updated version and less people will have problems to play it.

Yeah they probably idd just copy pasted :(

nope Steam users who buy the season pass for FC 5 or the gold edition get just regular FAR CRY 3 added to their account 4 weeks before FC 3 classic ships for PS4 and X BOX ONE

FAR CRY 3 CLASSIC edition is sp only on consoles but yes the graphics will look more like the current PC version ..as the old version out on X box 360 as well as PS3 bad vid chips .. the new console have better vid chips that support DX 11

far cry 3 that PC users get is regular old FC 3 ..not rememastered in any way

this is confirmed by lookin at the UBI season pass page for FC 5

https://news.ubisoft.com/article/far-cry-5-season-pass-detailed-far-cry-3-classic-edition-included

If you prefer familiar surroundings, Far Cry 3 Classic Edition (single-player content only) is also included in the season pass, and will be available four weeks prior to it going on sale as a standalone purchase this summer on PS4 and Xbox One. Visit (or revisit) the Rook Islands and come face-to-face with Vaas, one of gaming's most notorious villains, played by Michael Mando. Don't fret, PC players, as you will also receive the full version of Far Cry 3 at a later date after the launch of Far Cry 5 if you purchase the season pass or gold edition of Far Cry 5.

no problem man ..PC gamer also had a wirte up about FC 3 classic edition a few weeks ago

you can find that here https://www.pcgamer.com/far-cry-5-season-pass-includes-zombies-mars-the-vietnam-war-and-far-cry-3/

The pass also includes a trip to a completely different game, that being Far Cry 3. PS4 and Xbox One owners will actually get the single-player only Far Cry 3 Classic Edition, but for us it's the standard edition on Steam.

Yeah, it's a really a remaster, and they never advertise it as so, it's just a release on the current gen consoles. But I do wonder, have they release any information whether it's gonna be 1080p 60fps or 4K 30fps/60fps? Far Cry 3 isn't a very demanding game, so PS4 Pro and Xbox One X should run it at 4K 60fps, right?

yep it will in Uplay just like the old game did

by the way fc 5 season pass owners do get the far cry 3 deluxe edition ..thats what it added to my uplay account today anyway ..an yep its a uplay only copy since i bought Far Cry 5 gold as a uplay only version

an yes my old steam version of FAR CRY 3 deluxe still works

so now i see 2 copies of the game in Uplay ..still my original one only in steam

when i launch it asks what to i wanna play .. choose far cry 3 if you have the game on steam already

choose far cry 3 deluxe it will not launch since i dod not install the latest free version as there is no need to as i already have FC 3 deluxe

far cry 3 classic is only for consoles and is SP only........ PC users just get FC 3 Deluxe

far cry 3 classic on the console is not a remasterd version .. it only has better vid settings for the the new consoles ..to run in DX 11 ..the old version on console looked like poop compared to the PC version after all

I am a bit confused... people who already own FC3 don't get a second copy to gift? are we being punished for actually having bought the game?
