I've heard plenty about the multiplayer fixes but no mention of any single player fixes, theres plenty of annoying glitches in single player i thought shouldve been fixed
stuff like indestructable helicopters (ones that were destructable in the xbox 1 version)
Floating trees that looked sloppily placed on the maps
One other thing, why did they remove the burning island in the distance right after getting blown up in the first level of instincts, i remember on the xbox 1 version when you wash ashore on the second level you can see the island you were on before and its burning with a helicopter swooping around it
In the 360 version the burning island is nowhere to be seen, really killed the mood of the game for me cause i thought it looked awesome in that part on xbox 1
Framerate problems in certain areas of evolution
Bodies that fall down on a boat magically float in the air if you steal the boat from under them
I suppose with the time it took to even get a mp patch, hoping for single player fixes is a lost cause
Also is there gonna be a patch for xbox 1 evolution?
BTW i just rebought FCI:P, dont let me down with this patch ubisoft!
I suppose it was stupid of me to expect an answer from ubisoft
My biggest problem is that burning island missing from the 2nd level intro, makes no sense cause at the end of the first level you see the second level's island clearly across the water, then once you are in the second level BAM burning island nowhere to be seen...hell you can still see the chopper searching in the distance yet theres no island
One other thing, this is another problem not in the xbox 1 version, occasionally you find tree shadows that are incomplete or look like theyve had half the shadow sliced off, its looks really ridiculous and shows up far too often
But im guessing there wont be any single player fixes, it will just be considered "not that big of a deal" right?
Hmm i just ran into a new single player problem, all the single player maps are unlocked, yet it never seems to save my single player profile, when i go to resume game it tries to load the list of profiles but the list is empty
another thing, will the stupid "enemies who spawn in front of your eyes" **** be fixed?
I guess thats a no, just tested it and ZERO single player fixes, looks like this garbage is going back to gamestop tommorow, hell even the controls dont feel different

First off....Kudos to you for flying under the "multiple posts, same thread, and not using the Edit" radar. Think that's a first around here...
Second...it's unfortunate that things you were hoping got fixed weren't addressed with the patch...but not surprising as for the majority of players in this game...the MAJOR issues pertained primarily to the MP portion. Those were the issues that have been bandied about here and in other forums for over 5 months now. Those were the ones that were mentioned in emails that were sent to Ubisoft "Heads" in France, in the US and in Montreal over the last 3 months....and it seems that these were the ones fixed (and they were for the most part).
Seems as if maybe you don't have LIVE (not that there's anything wrong with that) as that (MP on LIVE) is where this game REALLY takes off with the fun and replayability of player maps ....

i do have live and have been playing far cry instincts online since xbox 1(notice my gamertag in sig), also ive mentioned the single player glitches in the feedback thread which just got washed away in a flood of multiplayer complaints
I've been a huge supporter of far cry instincts since it was announced for xbox 1 way back then...i was even in the developer chat for the first game...this one, although i cant find the transcript for it anymore
http://www.farcrygame.com/us/newspost.php?id=12152
I just think its stupid even though i reported the single player glitches in the feedback thread it fell on deaf ears.
Just because i have xbox live doesn't mean thats the only part of the game i care about, i'm the kind of guy that can replay good shooters 20 times or more
Honestly, mp gets old for me fast, usually i get really good at a game and it gets boring cause people either whine or quit and the matches always play out the same way
I just hate how they ignore the obvious faults in the single player just cause people arent vocal about it, if it was my game, it would bug me to no end that my single player masterpiece was not up to par with the original vision
Indestructable helicopters which were destroyable in the xbox version
shadows that are completely broken apart and look ridiculous
the whole first island missing in the background of the second level
These things completely ruin the single player for me even though i try to ignore them, it bothers me in the back of my mind since i know im just lying to myself, pretending this is a superior version to the xbox 1 version
The ONLY thing better in the 360 version is clarity of graphics and water, but when its full of glitches it doesnt really matter how good it looks to me, ill stick with my blurry xbox 1 version with far less glitches

I don't know why, but you are mentioning indestructable heli's, while I just shot down a few in the Single Player levels. One fearly in the beginning of the game when a heli comes over you while driving. I shot it down with the onboard gun of the car (just make sure your close enough, or you will be shooting for a long time ;-)) The other was somewhat later in the game using the gun that I like to call the 'Plop-gun'. (The assaultgun with grenade launcher). I plopped it to oblivian.
So where is the indestructable heli?

Theres the one that drops off the troops in the 3rd level in the rice paddy field where you man the morter turret, one heli there can be destroyed while the other you can only kill the gunner and afterowrds it just hovers there forever taking a million morter rounds and not blowing up, even after its run its automated script of dropping off troops
Then in the next level, when you first gain your powers, you get to the part where you ride the hovercraft to a clearing with another helicopter and morter turret and the heli there is the same deal, you can kill the gunner then it just sits there indestructable and doing nothing
Both these helis in the xbox 1 version were destructable...some may think this is a minor annoyance, but for me it kills the whole mood of the game, and the only way around it is to ignore it, which is stupid imo

things like this just blur the line between ubisoft and EA. what next? ubisoft says the two different control layouts is a "feature"? its really sad it takes pestering to get game developers to fix their games, i guess taking pride you didn't trick people into buying a slapped together pile of **** isn't enough.
