I like the 1911 Toaster from Farcry 5 the most personally
I like the 1911 Toaster from Farcry 5 the most personally
I own one irl, never disappoints
What is it about a 1911 you like in particular? In real life I mean. Reliability and firepower? Maybe it’s just me but they’ve just never felt as smooth as some of the more modern pistols. Including other .45 caliber pistols.
For me, it’s the fact that I grew up shooting my dad’s 1911, it’s something I’m comfortable with, and when I turned 21 20yrs ago it was the first handgun I purchased when I was legally able to. Not to mention it’s changed very little since it was introduced 113yrs ago and saw service in 2, soon to be 3, World Wars
That makes sense to me. They’re great firearms to have. They were here long before us and will be here long after.
I tend to get better shots with some other pistols but you can’t go wrong with a Kimber 1911.
You can definitely go wrong with a kimber
Same. I have a cz-75 and it's basically just a 1911 but better in every way.
Muh stoppin power!
muh two world war huuue weee
Reliability, power, form factor.
It has what is widely regarded as the best grip angle on any pistol, aims very naturally and comfortably, and has an exceptional trigger.
For a handgun that packs that big a punch it has remarkably controllable recoil (albeit due to weight), and imo has the most comfortable snap of any handgun I've ever fired (honorable mention to sig p226 as the most comfortable 9mm for me personally)
It is obscenely accurate especially the higher quality tier you go, far more accurate than any shooter will actually be.
Every machine requires maintenance and will eventually need replacement parts like springs, but when properly maintained it will run seemingly forever
.45 ACP makes a very big damn hole.
There's a plethora of reasons why this 100+yr old weapon design (with modernization) is still trucking and stacking bodies around the globe
I like the fact that it was used by the us military for 80 something years. It only got replaced for capacity as far as i know
They're made the same way they were made 113 years ago. If that doesn't speak to its reliability I don't know what does.
Maybe because it's not a modern pistol and is Infact a 100 year old design
theyre handsome guns, plus it depends on the maker for smoothness plus a 45 is never gonna feel as smooth as a 9
2nd favorite to Desert Eagle. I know I'm a tw@t, but it is a video game after all, hand cannons are just fun. 1911 is the most reasonable impact for utility though. I think the only advantage the deagle has over it is against vehicles, but if you look at it the other way, they also have the exact same ammo drops and attachments (besides iron sight which 1911 wins in), so deagle has absolutely no drawbacks either (when I agree it really should).
Doesn’t make ya a tw@t, if they suppressed the deagle like they do in COD I’d be rocking a .50 hand cannon also. Going loud just goes against my stealth/resistance gameplay
I recently finished FC6 wihile using a silenced Deagle 50% of the time. It's almost as accurate as a BMG rifle but is much better at follow up shots in case you miss the first.
C96 Mauser? I like the 9mm version because of RE4.
I like the Desert Eagles too.
Far cry 2: best we can do is star .45
The one you get for free in FC4, for linking your Ubisoft account!
That one was pretty cool. Didn't use it too much though. Felt like it was eating up all my pistol ammo when I used it
The A.J.M. 9 also looks like the barrel is sideways while sprinting, it’s kinda annoying.
Also upgrade your ammo pouch to max, you should be able to carry plenty of ammo,
if I have enough ammo to run the MG42, you should have enough for a 3-round burst pistol.
if I have enough ammo to run the MG42, you should have enough for a 3-round burst pistol.
In fairness, I think the handgun ammo cap with all upgrades is still only about 96 rounds. That's 32 bursts. The LMG cap is about 500?
It’s either 150 or 200 rounds for sure, I remember it being a good bit.
I don’t have my console with me, so I watched a video of someone using the A.J.M. 9, the ammo count was at 149.
Also the MG42 eats that 500 rounds up like it’s nothing, the only good thing is that it only takes a single round to kill something with it.
To quote Aliens, "short, controlled bursts!"
Also, it might be 96 up until you get the last ammo bag upgrade, which is in the northern part of the map. So it's still a fairly ammo-hungry gun for most of the game. Handgun ammo isn't a common pickup either, IIRC. Very few enemies have handguns so you're limited to an RNG handful of rounds when you loot corpses.
A.J.M 9 is pretty good
Favorite Sidearm is the D2
Used the D2 the other day to hunt the rare rhino and killed it in 2 shots
Well its essentially a sawn off .700 Nitro or Elephant Gun
One of the most powerful non-Military , ,Non-Explosive Weapons
Isnt it a sawn off 12 gauge?
1911 favorite pistol, thumper favorite sidearm
Thumper is fun n all but its just too risky in a drive by thumping because its a 50/50 chance of it blowing up the vehicle im in
If i need an explosive i use the better grenade launcher :The RPG or Iuse the RAT4 , or a Bow
The Luger in Far Cry 5, and generally the M9 unmodified.
For stealth, almost always a silenced M1911 with a suppressor because it's in every game
Desert Eagle.
I never like the DE in video games
but in 6 it's unironically the best sniper in the game, and still works as a decent hipfire weapon. It's not really the best sniper, but it's very very good and frees up a weapon slot just having the DE as your side
Far Cry 2 Desert Eagle
The Suppressed 1911 with the red dot in FC3.
Shadow
Yes
The .44 magnum
1911 or the 44. Magnum when it’s not bugging out
The automatic crossbow in FC4.
Any six-shooters because I’m a Western fan and revolver supremacist. They’re so badass.
Toss up between the .44 mag or the 1911
The magnum .44 Far cry 5
P226 FC6 you don't need any other gun to finish the game.
M79 is only sidearm I bother with in these games once it's available.
Its so fun to use but pretty op in far cry 4 and 2
1911 and any variants of it. Gotta make sure the enemy doesn't come back.
Hate Liches
I played the entirety of FC6 with no HUD, just with an unmodified FAL so I don’t really know tbh
I also play the games as minimal as possible, just chasing the immersion I first felt with fc2
I know right man. I’ll be honest, FarCry isn’t the thing it used to be, I’m hoping for a new franchise to come out at some point to replace it and give us what we felt with 2, because despite the criticism it really did the best out of all the FCs when it comes to immersing the player. Hopefully FC7 goes for the slightly more immersive route.
Sounds like hell lol
Nah bro it’s the only way I could have fun! I personally dislike half the things in FC6 (Supremos, weird weapons, wacky vehicles etc) playing like this feels like your actually a guerilla
Guess I'll have to try it if I ever reinstall the game
You should bro, keep unmodified, unpainted basic weapons like M1911s, no Amigos, and the only HUD things you keep are environment indicators (so you know where you’re driving to), damage indicator (your screen goes red when damaged so you know when you’re damaged as you have no health bar), and if you want keep the detection indicator
Yea, I had a difficult time getting into fc6. It just felt so unattached from reality. I know it's a game, but in this case, it just didn't do it for me. If I felt like playing a game like that I would just play just cause. Fc6 just didn't feel like a far cry, to me
Agreed, felt like a mix between a Far Cry and a Just Cause
Played all of 3 hours of FC6 and just couldn’t get into it. If I can’t get into a game within the first few hours, I usually just ditch it. I was hooked on FC3 and 4 in the first 20 mins, and IMO FC6 doesn’t live up to the standards of those 2
I agree with you and all who replied to you - my only problem was I was still under 18 when I got FC6 as a gift so I had to play it (I didn’t have the money for my own games) and this was the only way I found lol
Don't comment.
1911
the p226 in FC5, with the green paintjob and square silencer its got such a nice tactical vibe to it.
.44 for life.
1911
1911 always 1911
The "Double-0" from FC6, it has the best sights and suppressor, plus enough slots to mod it however you want. I usually run Overclocked, Move Speed, +Aimed Damage, and Reload All.
The Deagle with a 6x scope, suppressor, and power mods is great for sniping while in a vehicle (the buzzer)
*But overall favorite for the series is the sawed off double barrel (D2 and versions). You can use incendiary shells to take out signs/vehicles and even helicopters faster than most other weapons, and very very useful when driving.
.44 Magnum in FC5.
You feelin' lucky, Punk?
The Blood Dragon pistol from New Dawn
Having it able to be full auto was super cool
Fc4 mauser bc it looks cool
Underrated pick, but definitely a good one
1911 "Shadow" from FC3 (for various reasons...). Also really enjoyed the auto crossbow from FC4, if that counts
Definitely more pistol than the D2 or Thumper
AJM 9.
Heaven & Hell from farcry 6 (looks cool) or the explosive space pistol from farcry 5 (explosives are fun :D)
m79
Sawed off, specifically the one you get after killing faith.
The machete.
Desert Eagle.. Lovely punch. Lovely sound.
Favorite handgun is the cannon unique 44 magnum, was very sad it wasn’t in far cry 6
Makarov 6P9), looks so nice. (Unwieldy piece of shit in real life, my dad had one, but I like it.)
My go to stealth pistol
The M9!
The grenade launcher by far. Although I’ve been enjoying the signature sub machine pistol with the drum barrel.
The Autocrat in FC6 was my go to the whole game.
It's gotta be the Shadow (silenced signature pistol)
And the deagle
1911 always, just feels right? You know?
Good ol 1911
Desert Eagle 🦅
The revolver in 5 FUCKS. One tapping pilots from the ground never felt so good
Desert Eagle in Far Cry 6 is just amazing bro
Amazing in every game it's in
1911 in FC5. reddot and silencer make it an absolute beast
Pretty much every gun in the game is with how much you can customize them
1911 always hasa warm place in my ice cold heart.
I like the blood dragon A.J.M 9 and sin eater d2
5,7 in far cry 6
M9A1 from both MW1 games
This isn't Cod
Fuck this is the farcry sub lol
I'm partial to the P226 myself. They've been re-using the 1911 since FC2, I'm well over it.
Silent Makarov & 6P9
I really like the 1911, its just such a beautiful gun. I also really liked the the D-50 (Desert Eagle) lot of damage, but it got some kick to it 😂
AJM 9, if you give me Robocop’s gun, I’m using Robocop’s gun
sig sauer p226
Beretta in FC5. So fucking clean.
Desert Eagle baby!
1911 Mostly because of the way Longinus introduced it to me in fc4
The M14 is my go to, good rate of fire, controllable recoil, decent ammo capacity
FC5, 1911 with crimson red paint, square suppressor and a red dot always gets me excited
FC6 Luger
Probably the 1911 in 3 and 4 in 5 and 6 it's ruined by the bad sound when it sounds more powerful it feels more powerful. Other than that the ajm9 I love robocop
The 44 magnum from FC4.
My first time ever playing it, was at my friends house. My partner and I had gone to his for a catch up, and we were gonna have a lil jam and a smoke as we were in an amateur band together - him being drums, me being rhythm.
Once we were winding down he let on that he'd gotten the then fairly new xbox along with the new far cry. Upon hearing id never played any he said here get yaself a go, its an FPS and he knew I love FPS.
We spent the next 15mins him watching me literally just snap dome folks from across the map with the ironsight magnum, never known anyone be so entertained haha.
Probably either the 1911 or the M9 from 5
I love Milsurp and especially doing realistic builds. I loved beating 5 on hard with only regularly legal weapons (semi auto, no extended magazines, no supressors, and No explosives) so these 2 were my bread and butter for rapid fire engagements when I didn’t bring the MS16 or ARC-L with me. Eventually had to ban using the lever shotgun or the lever action rifle and AK. But those two pistols (extended mags allowed because they are still either legal in most states or at least stock for them) were my favorites
.44 mag from FC 5. If I had to pick just one.
FN Five-Seven from FC6
FC2 Mac-10
1911 with a cylinder suppressor and a reflex sight, my secondary in all games I can get it
Far cry 2 Suppressed Makarov
the 1911, it’s my second favorite handgun of all time and my favorite handgun in any video game
Far Cry 2 silenced makarov
Either the HS77 from 4 or the D50 from 5
The 44 hand cannon thing from far cry 5... I was pumped when I found out you could get it in 6 too
M9, P226, 1911, Deagle. The M9, it's just that I wanna larp as a US National Guardsman or an LAPD Cop (They formerly used the 92FS). The P226, possibly just a companion to the AR-C or something. The 1911, because it's a famous handgun, and the Deagle because it's a pocket .50 Caliber Hand Cannon.
shadow from fc3
That I use in every game? 1911.
Favorite individual weapon? PMM in 6. It's just so god damn satisfying to spam, and I can casually dome an enemy from a couple hundred meters with those terrible "sights" it has.
Desert eagle
.44 Magnum always my trusted in every game
Especialy in FARCRY5 with Steel & Ivory magnum
the one from fc5 with the 2 scopes
Usually the starting pistol, atleast I can remember far cry 6 and I only used the starting pistol because he/she uses it a lot in most cutscenes, so I felt to stay canon I had to keep that gun
In any game, it's always the 1911 and I don't know why. I like the skinny look and the satisfying sound. I guess I do know why.
Probably the mind blower in far cry 6 it’s just so pleasing getting headshots all the time
P226
I love me a big 44 magnum revolver. I just really like revolvers in general, I honestly wish that the top break revolver in 4 was actually good because I love top break revolvers. But I can settle with a 44 magnum lol.
M79 👹
I like how in all the cutscenes dani uses the makarov (i think) so I always made sure to have that in my inventory for continuity. I hated it
Sandman
Mine was the sandman from far cry 4 and later i used to have stinger or skirpion
The Cannon from farcry 4. Signature weapon and It 2 shot heavies
Fc3 1911 is CHUNKY
P22 in Farcry 6 44. In Farcry 5
The 1911
Lugers are fun.
The sand man far cry 4 version
Can’t remember what it’s called but it’s the prestige pistol in FC5 that you get given a few times in the zombie DLC. Looks vaguely like a 1911
Far cry 5 engraved 1911
Does the auto cross from Far Cry 4 count? If not then the shadow from far cry 3, got absolute insane stealth kills with it
The Robocop pistol
I’m a traditionalist, like in real life I prefer the 1911
