Modders ‘BigTinz’, ‘Boggalog’, ‘FoxAhead’ and ‘Scubrah’ have released a must-have mod for Far Cry 2. Far Cry 2 Realism+ Redux is a crossover of the Realism+ and Redux mods, packing some of the best features of both to provide a fresh and exciting gameplay experience.
Far Cry 2 Realism+ Redux boosts the game’s saturation to bring out some lively color. On top of that, the game’s overall graphics are pushed as far as the engine will allow, with improved draw distance, LOD values and shadows. Furthermore, the project comes with new textures (both AI-enhanced and new/custom ones).
Far Cry 2: Realism+Redux also brings major gameplay improvements. For instance, enemies will now respawn in outposts once half an hour has passed (and not immediately). Moreover, the mod gives an overall boost to player and enemy damage, which immediately makes combat deadlier and more impactful. As such, enemies now feel less bullet-spongy.
You can download the mod from here.
Have fun!

impressive does it also increase car driving speed?
No, that would shorten the playtime of the game. Remember at the time gamers were complaining because AAA games were too short for the money. Instead of adding more good content Developers used tactics like this and also added boring uninteresting levels and content.
Yes!
real far cry 2 is crysis
Kinda, but then the game was a very different thing anyway
That’s true. FC2 is great, though.
Not looking bad considering its age. But I wish outposts didn’t respawn at all, it would be more realistic. Far Cry 3 did it best. Sometimes, the outposts you controlled were attacked, which was pretty cool, but the bad guys didn’t magically respawn.
Also, for those who wanted it, I think there was an option to reset outposts.
The respawning outposts was the biggest complaint that I have seen on this game. Ubisoft did it intentionally to make the game take longer. It was done in a response to so many gamers that were complaining about AAA games being too short for the money. Instead of adding content Ubisoft went the route of dragging the content out.
All fixed now!
So the outposts stays destroyed forever? That means most of the game will just be you driving around, forever alone.
No. They’re on a timer.
So how much time for the outpost respawn in this mod?
Try FC2 with this mod, it really fixes things. Best possible FC2 experience.
Is this a joke. The video looks like someone smeared vaseline over the screen and recorded it in 360p.
Click the gear and change it to 1080p60
It’s funny how today, DX10 is like 50% faster than DX9 on DXNAVI enabled AMD GPUs. Definetly less CPU bound.
Just FYI, do NOT play FC2 in DX10 mode. It has some weird bugs, and DX9 is the way to go.
Untrue. I’ve played FC2 back in the day and played through quite a chunk relatively recently also. DX10 is perfectly fine. Game just acts up a bit at high refresh rates.
Separate issue. Yes, you need to limit frame rate, but DX10 also has issues, especially with the phone system in the game.
Is it because of hardware incompatibility?
wasnt this the game BLM was against ? For shooting Africans and such ?
What’s funny is that the enemies are mostly international mercs with various ethnicities to avoid that sh*t precisely, and still they b*tch.
I think FC2 deserves criticism because they added too much White people in a African setting, because they where afraid of PC or whatever the reason was.
I think it deserves criticism because it’s an unfinished mess with half it’s mechanics half baked.
Not unfinished at all. It’s a trailblazing game.
…the entire point is that this “civil war” is being fought by foreign mercs.
I think you just missed the point.
I don’t get it, even the black people shooting at you are foreign mercs?
No. This game predates the BLM movement by a decade.
Too many yt people in FC2.
I think RE5 got more controversy at the time.
Thanks for the shout out! We’re really proud of this mod, and I think it’s by far the best way to play FC2.
Is the shadows supposed to look this way? I played this game years ago and the shadows where more crisp i guess, not sure crisp is the right word to express.
Fixed. Coming soon in an update.
Nice.
Great mod! Replaying through FC2 with it now.
Thanks!
