Although Far Cry 4 is a very graphically intense game with lush green environments it’s hard not to notice that the game uses similar assets, fire effects, water simulation and physics from Far Cry 3. However lowering the anti-aliasing to SMAA gave us an almost constant 60 frames per second. Our second test was done on an GTX 680 and Intel I7 4930K and surprisingly we were still not able to achieve 60 frames per second with every setting cranked up to its maximum. This resulted into several stuttering issues. Scaling down the anti-aliasing to SMAA and shadow quality, gave us a much more consistent performance with around 40-50 frames per second. We saw dips to as as low as 25 and as high as 70.

We were able to push for a 1080p resolution with all settings cranked to high but the frame rate was variable. Unlike Ubisoft’s other AAA game this year, the performance of Far Cry 4 on AMD cards is some sort of a mix bag. As usual the first test was ran on R9 290 and AMD FX-8350 8-Core 4.0 Ghz with 16GB of memory.

The above PS4 screenshots clearly shows that Tesselation is absent in the console versions.įor this purpose we tested the game across two different configurations of PC version of Far Cry 4. But the question is does it scale well on both AMD and Nvidia configurations? In Far Cry 4, Ubisoft have provided tons of parameters which includes Post FX, Shadow Quality, Water, Terrain and Ambient Occlusion.

2012’s Far Cry 3 scaled extremely well across a multitude of different configurations and was essentially free from any performance issues. But does Far Cry 4 suffers from the same faith as Assassin’s Creed Unity? As usual we will begin this analysis with the PC version.
Ubisoft Montreal have always been at the forefront of pushing games technologies to its absolute limit and at times they have been pretty lackluster regarding optimization in some of their games. AAA publishers like Electronic Arts and Ubisoft are still persisting with cross generation games development and although the people who make games have to face challenges by the hour, there is no doubt they have been able to increase their knowledge further in pushing decade old hardware to their absolute limits and at the same time optimizing features for current generation.įar Cry 4 is one such example. Unlike the last few generations of consoles, some game developers are not building games for one specific console. This is an interesting time to be a game developer.
