If you were clamoringfor a less intrusive HUD forFar Cry 3, you may have it: if you’re a PC owner that is. Just download the latest patch, go to the options menu, and look for the new HUD toggle options under “Gameplay.”

Currently there’s no word on a timetable for the console version of the game, but I can’t imagine too much of a holdup. Considering that this same 1.04 update fixes a number of glitches as well, Ubisoft would probably want this out sooner than later.
