IF by co-op you mean other players, no you don't need to play online at all to complete the game.

In the game itself there are bot companions that can be useful. I used them mainly to level them up. Not sure you need to use them to complete the game though.

Yea, I do that in the Assassin Creed games too. Release the animals from a distance (with a bow if I have one) then watch the carnage.

I add a Ryzen 9 5900x to my mini-ITX build and then proceed to play a bunch of different retro games. Lulz

BTW, @soundman98 you can play FC5 for free on Epic Games 8/5/21 - 8/9/21 if you want to try it.

EDIT: Looks like you can also play it through Steam.

just got it, now just need to wait for it to finish downloading. it was on super-sale on steam, which is about the only time i get games anyways. $20 for the 'deluxe edition' is a plenty fair price for a little cheap entertainment.

as long as there's not some required co-op missions that i need to organize with people in real life, i can figure it out.

A new gpu is no longer a priority for me; other things have taken fiscal priority. Having said that I'm very impressed at how my 1080Ti is performing after all this time.

Yea, same here, I rarely buy a game at release price, particularly since I have a backlog on Steam, Epic and GOG anyway.

If you are into cheap games, I bought a good portion of my recent game purchased through Humble Bundle when they run their charity bundles. It's hit or miss but worth checking out on occasion. You can get some older AAA games pretty cheap though, and gives you a chance to try some new genres without spending serious money. Since it links through Steam its not a separate platform.

Try having nowinstock.net window open to listen when that card becomes in stock. There are a few GPUs in stock at Best Buy but they are way overpriced.

lol.

i don't run a headset, so no mic.

i used to do lan parties with a few guys from school. sorta tapered off after everyone moved away. tried to do the remote lan party thing, but none of us are very good at keying up the mic, and the zombies always won faster.

i tend to play farcry with silencers, and go all-or-nothing for the undetected bonus. if i slip and get detected, i let them kill me so i can restart. might not be the most fun to play with a martyr!

All my weapons have silencers. I clear up most strongholds without ever being noticed. You get more cash bonus if you’re undetected and no alarms ever go off.

So you know, I'm doing my occasional GPU search and come across Best Buy. To my surprise they have a few GPUs in stock. But there's a catch, for example; their PNY 1660 Super, which is the GPU that I currently own, is listed for a whopping $540. I got this GPU 5 months ago when the GPU shortage was even worse, for $300. Am I going crazy here or is Best Buy now charging scalper prices for their GPUs? a 6700XT by Gigabyte is listed at $940. Another one at $800. What is going on?
