Far Cry 5 has just received a graphical upgrade with a HR Texture pack
If you just fired up Far Cry 5, you will have noticed an extensive download, that's patch v1.11 and it adds access to enable a "HD Textures Pack" for the game. HD textures are always better for image quality if you have the VRAM to spare.
At this time the visual impact of Far Cry 5's new HD texture pack is not yet known. The patch also adds various Map Editor improvements and fixes, and adds new masks, weapons and vehicles. As always, Steam and UPLAY will download this new patch the next time you launch their clients, and below you can find its complete changelog.

It's stuff like this that makes me feel like I should always wait a year from initial release of the game to get the full "proper" game. I've completed it now though so this update is fairly useless to me.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the game and feel like I got my moneys worth. I just feel a little cheated by the what is pretty much the norm these days, of releasing a game and then slowly over the next 12 months, adding content and features and HR Texture packs, etc and making the game what it should've been at launch.
This is only a problem when you buy AAA titles when they're still new. This is also why I only buy such games when their official price gets permanently dropped below $60; usually by the time that happens, the devs/publisher is done working on it.

Lots of people havent played the game so this is a good thing. I for one appreciate this, it means i will have HR textures when i try the game. Long term support is nice.

Its nothing wrong with that, because i will enjoy the game more, if its polished much as possible. On top of that, all Ubisoft games now are very simmilar to each other, open world grindfest. I like them, but not for the full price, and a good game will stay good even after a year or two, so whats the rush?
