Now, I have had some very fleeting experience with map-making tools in the past, which gives me a slight leg up in terms of working out which button spawns characters and which spawns furniture.Įven so, tooltips pretty much tell you what does what, and then it's a matter of selecting the object or entity you want from a list down the right-hand side.ĭuplication - in order to, say, add 20 cougars or two rows of conjoined windmills to your map - is straight-up copy'n'paste controls, so creating something at least functional is remarkably rapid. More importantly, I feel as though I could go on to create something far more deft and coherent, such was the rapidity with which I picked up the editor's controls.
I am nonetheless somewhat proud of having painlessly created something that a) works b) has a specific solution despite being a mismatch of disparate aesthetic styles and which is centered around the extremely My First Map concept of a small arena with a very large amount of angry animals/mythical monsters. (To play it yourself, visit that link, sign in with your Uplay details if asked, click 'add to favourites' and then boot up Far Cry 5, choose Arcade Mode from the main menu then select 'My Favourites' it should be there). Its ranks are swelling fast, and clearly much of it at this very early stage is absolute drek, but a user voting system means at least some of the better maps are floating to the top.Ĭlearly, this will not be the case for my inaugral map, ' a tunnel made of windmills with 20 cougars and two yetis'. It was remarkably easy to create - you should give it a go yourself (you don't have to include quite so many cougars, though).Īrcade Mode is the umbrella term given to a fairly accessible map editor and a menu in the main game from which you can call up and play on the spot anything made by anyone else, including your own creations. It even has a puzzle, of sorts, involving a rocket launcher and a very high ladder.
It took me about an hour, it stars 20 cougars, two enormous yetis, half a dozen windmills and a tasteful pink pillow. I made my first Far Cry 5 map in the game's Arcade Mode this morning, in collaboration with my 4-year-old daughter.
