![]() ![]() ![]() The M60 is also perfect against vehicles and aircraft which are a nuisance when the regional Resistance Level is low and enemies tend to spawn more quickly. The reload speed is poor but given the large magazine size, controlled short bursts will see you through groups of 5 or 6 enemies at a time. Which weapons are best Since you've only got one weapon choice per class at this stage of the game, the best primary weapons are: M60 - Machine Gun Pure Rambo style, the M60 can wipe out groups of enemies and help you liberate those early Outposts with ease. For some reason as well, the game designers decided that machine guns won't slow you down too much either. Armed with a bucket load of ammo, they can mash up enemies in a split second and any machine gun can also take down those annoying enemy planes and helicopters with ease. They have always been great in the series and in FC5 they're still excellent. Overall, the most effective class is the machine gun (if you don't mind sacrificing stealth). Enemies will often attempt to rush and flank you, especially when your health is low. ![]() Sniper rifles provide an excellent opportunity to take out enemies before they have chance to reach you, whilst a shotgun provides a high powered attack at close quarters. The reason behind the choice of shotgun, sniper and machine gun, is simply catering to the AI of Far Cry games. Pistols are high accuracy but low damage weapons and SMG's have limited range and are outclassed by shotguns for their one shot reliability. The flamethrower is also fun at first but soon becomes a chore once you realize it's limited use and the dangers of burning things too close to you. Why the dislike for the bow and flamethrower? Although the bow is fast and easy to resupply, there are notable downsides in it's limited ammo and poor accuracy at distance. Whilst melee attacks with shovels provide the most laughs, bows, pistols, flamethrowers and SMG's can be ignored for the most part. Which weapon class is best In my opinion, the shotgun, sniper and machine gun class are the best in Far Cry 5. For a free LMG see further down the guide. Over time you'll discover sharpshooters and heavily armed enemies that carry a sniper or shotgun that you can loot for free. Remember, although you can buy weapons from the shop for a fee, always try and loot enemies for a better weapon. You'll have access to a single weapon of each type: shotgun, rifle, sniper etc. ![]() Instead, I'm focusing this guide on the first 5 or 6 hours of the game, where only the first level of weapons are unlocked in the shop. By that time, you'll have recruited several Specialists (Companions) and will barely remember the tough opening few hours. Whilst these weapons look lovely, you won't see them for many many hours. You may have already seen other guides on the best weapons in Far Cry 5, but in my experience these tend to focus on mid to late weapons such as the SPAS-12 or AK-M, which are locked behind high levels of Resistance Points. The guide is primarily designed for beginner players who are just starting out and those who may not have played a Far Cry game before. In this guide I'm highlighting the best starting weapons with a great tip for acquiring a really powerful weapon early. Far Cry 5 has a taxing opening few hours where you'll be short of money, weapon choice and with a whole shrouded world in front of you. ![]()
