A new free app available for iOS and Android devices lets players keep an eye on their Far Cry 3 multiplayer progress, and even customize your loadouts, among other features.

You can head here to grab the iOS version, and here for the Android version. Here all the features you will be able to access with the app:

  • Decode the encrypted data you find in game to unlock advanced weapon mods and earn bonus XP. Don't wait until you're playing the game to start decoding. Instead, decode on the go! Once you unlock a weapon mod, you can accept it, give it to one of your friends or sell it for more XP straight from your phone.
  • View and customize your loadouts so that you're ready to play once you're back in the game.
  • Keep track of your progress through the Daily and Weekly Challenges. Completing these Challenges will earn you XP.
  • Check out your personal stats and the stats of your friends, including time played, level, top weapons, awards and more.
  • Keep track of the maps you've made in the Map Editor. You can follow the current tier placements and how many people have liked or favourited your maps.

    Don't know, just looking at your stats on the console should be enough. That is, for non OCD people. But hey, that's just me.

    This app has been available for a while.... anyways, the main attraction of this game is the SP, it saddens me that they would create an app for the weakest part of the game rather than the best.

    There's no doubt that the Single Player is the best part of this game but I do wish the multiplayer community was larger. It really isn't bad, there are some gun balancing issues (ak-47, MP5, and P514 need to be nerfed a ton) but I like it for the most part which is saying a lot because I hate just about every FPS multiplayer game, just can never get into them but something about Far Cry 3's is really addictive to me. I might be in the minority but I like the multiplayer. Not as much as the single player but I do like it.

    Far cry 3's multiplayer is really disappointing. This is coming from someone who loved far cry 2's multiplayer. I cant believe they took vehicles out of multiplayer. That really restricts what people are able to do over the map editor.

    i found the multiplayer environments to be very refreshing...the bright tropical settings made it more exciting to play for me....even though im the only one who plays the multiplayer....

    I've actually been using this to tweak loadouts and decode bonuses when I get a moment. It's a pretty handy app, and I hope the trend continues for other titles.

    I honestly haven't even used my online pass for UPlay yet just because I've heard there is almost no one on the MP. I figured if it's something I won't really play anyway, why hurt the resale value?

    Interesting idea for a Far Cry 3 app. It seems a lot of games have been adding a 'statistics app' to their games. As long as it's free and works, I will definitely download it!

    I really... REALLY hope the Far Cry 3 (PC) multiplayer moves beyond feeling like an alpha at some point. So much fun when everything is working as it should - about 1 in every 8 games.

    i thought the mp for FC3 was boring and while the co-op was fun it had no replay value.
