TEST – Far Cry 5: what is the DLC Lost on Mars worth?

After taking us to Vietnam in Hours of Darkness Far Cry 5 changes from planet to planet … on Mars ! Lost on Mars second extension of the game of Ubisoft leaves for the Red Planet and staged Nicholas Rye aka Nick Emeritus pilot of the base adventure in Montana, facing a threat even worse than Joseph Seed . Once again, a radical change of tone, and it's a real delirium

Lost on Mars, it's a nice DLC

Nick is teleported to Mars by Hurk or rather the head of Hurk because the latter had some minor problems in the meantime. How? Why ? Well, even the game is amusing in saying that there is not always a need for a deep scenario there is only one thing to know: a extraterrestrial race of Arachnea wants to invade the Earth, and Nick must reactivate Anna an artificial intelligence, in order to save humanity . An extremely stupid program (it is badumed) which allows above all to spend a long time in the company of Hurk whose spirit was transferred to a Robotpote your only one Companion game on Mars. Highly colorful character, Hurk remains a monument of vulgarity, stupidity, Beauferie and stupidity, giving rise to crisp dialogues .

] Side, gameplay Lost on Mars still remains a DLC of Far Cry 5 . In order to give back all its power to Anna Nick has to reactivate several bases scattered on the planet, with each time a challenge, such as defeating a Queen alien tough, hordes of ' Arachines and even robots that do not respond anymore. A clbadic exploration and a little agreed, even if the extension still dares some originality such as not having to walk on the sand at the risk of attracting creatures. For this, Nick is equipped with a combination with a backpack thruster, giving a little verticality to the gameplay (not to mention the low gravity of Mars).

Regarding weapons, it's a little less fun. On the Red Planet no ammunition to look for, the player uses futuristic weapons that shoot energy balls and which simply recharge while waiting. Already that their appearances are not crazy, they are all alike a little all, the sensations of shooting are almost non-existent and do not really give satisfaction except with the Laser Taser which literally explodes enemies. At least, the names are amusing ( Obliterateuuuur Catastrophor Tear-Nerfs etc.). Moreover, to obtain these weapons and other objects of the game (care, grenades), the player must first recover from Hémoleum on the bodies of Arachnées or in green barrels, to then make them via a 3D printer. Again, it allows to change some of the codes of the basic game, even if it is nothing exceptional.

You will understand, Lost on Mars is a DLC sympathetic with a good life (about ten hours to finish it at 100%), and which is worth the detour for the tasty dialogues between Hurk and Nick . Ubisoft wanted to bring a vertical dimension to combat and exploration, it succeeded, but we are clearly there in an extension of Far Cry 5, no doubt about it . Reserved for fans of the license who have explored Montana in all directions, but still want some.
