Where are the weapons?

[JackieTheDemon]

So I'm like 75% of the way through the game, and nothing new has been added to the store as far as weapons go.

The lack of weapons is extremely underwhelming for a game like Farcry. I feel like there was a much larger selection in both 3 and 4! What's the point of the AR tab when you put 2 lever-action and semi-auto rifles in there? Those should be classified as snipers! I also feel it's lazy to extend the barrel of the standard AR and call it a "sniper". (not to mention every AI in the game carry the same weapon.)

Also, no point in locking weapons behind progression when you can buy a skinned version of it right away. Once you aquire an M60, SA-50, and an RPG (which can be done in the first hour of playing.) there's nothing left that's worth unlocking.

You could have had 3 times the selection, isn't this game in America?

Yeah I was quite disappointed in the weapon selection as well.

Im happy with it. Seeing how we can equip like 4 and i usually stealth these games as much as possible so i mostly stick to snipers and knives. Unless i have to use something louder..... Throws grenade at silo

They may release some weapons in the future as DLC, yay. Although I do hope that are free DLC's, I doubt it will happen.

20 rounds from my M60 can destroy a silo, and it's suppressed.

You could carry 4 weapons in 3 and 4 as well, except you had about 50 weapons to chose from.

They seem to have trimmed down the Weapons available to avoid Choice Bloat.
A little too much IMO, but then again how many do you really need? You can only carry 4 + Melee and Throwables

I just love having a variety to choose from, and there's really no excuse for this. There's no unlockable weapons from special objectives either, like 4 had.

You're in the backwoods of Montana...

You're lucky there aren't just shotguns.

But, beyond that... how many weapons can you carry? 4? And you're complaining about having 40 weapons to choose from?

How many do you really USE anyway? 2? 3 sometimes?

There's not even 40 weapons to chose from lol, there's like 20 in this game.

I would use them all just like I did in FarCry 4, that's why I loved that game, more unlockable weapons for me to play around with and enjoy.

[Pyro Penguin]

They could give me 200 guns to choose from and I'd still always use the bow

[Mr Fraggle (UK)]

I find the guns very underpowered, why does the flamethrower guy need so many bullets and what about the guy that has what looks like a butchers apron, I might as well throw stones at them. A head shot should be an instant kill for christ sake as most are not wear helmets.

Oh, I'm sorry.

You use 20 weapons? You must be some kind of mutant with all those arms and weight carrying capacity.

Yeah, that is the biggest gripe I have. Even a .50 cal sniper rifle needs 10 headshots before they go down :/

It takes one .50 cal sniper headshot to take down anything on normal... You must be on hard or something.

Yes,I'm on hard but I'm specifically refering to the "boss" enemies like the flamethrower and heavy cultist guys with helmets, not the regular henchmen.

Dude you're misunderstanding literally every statement people are making. I didn't say I USE 20 GUNS AT ONCE, I said there are only 20 to chose from, and half of them aren't interesting enough to be worth using.
