Uncovering the unreleased Far Cry 5 in-game Encyclopedia

The almost complete but unused in-game encyclopedia, reconstructed thanks to the oasisstrings file.

Please note that it’s still cut content, so some information might not be relevant anymore.

You can read the oasisstrings file here. Pictures from this encyclopedia were also extracted and posted by @xbaebsae here.

Part 2: Locations - Holland Valley

Gardenview Packing Facility

The last facility added to the Hadlers' apple empire. They shipped their apples throughout Hope County and beyond. When the cult went red state, the Hadlers stopped their legal threats and resorted to violence.

Silver Lake Trailer Park

A community of people just trying to do their best.

Gardenview Orchards

A part of Doug and Debbie Hadler’s apple empire. After their ciderworks facility, they expanded to a second, larger orchard: Gardenview Orchards. Then they opened the Gardenview Packing Facility.

Rae-Rae's Pumpkin Farm

Fiery matriarch Rae-Rae Bouthillier cares about two things: Prize-winning pumpkins and her dog Boomer.

Gardenview Ciderworks

The first major facility owned by Doug and Debbie Hadler. Ten years ago, they had a dream: an empire made of apples. They nearly achieved it too, until the cult forcibly took over everything they had worked for.

Bridge of Tears

It was called the Mišihrew Bridge when the railroad was still active. It’s now a rickety old train bridge and John Seed's ideal location to send a warning message to all sinners.

Frobisher's Cave

In 1970, a cougar, named "Frobisher" by the locals, killed the star pitcher of a rival baseball team. The Hope County Silver Foxes won that year and changed their name to the Cougars in Frobisher's honor.

Howard Cabin

Home of Niesha Howard, an extreme rock climber from Canada who moved to Montana to be a prepper.

Copperhead Rail Yard

Copperhead Rail was created in the late 1800s by Emmet Reaves. It was shut down in the early 70s and a lot got left behind. It became a place for kids to get drunk or bums to find shelter, then the cult bought it.

Lincoln Lookout Tower

It’s the last working fire tower in the county. A man who worked here promised to help the Strickland family fight off the cult if ever their farm was under attack.

Sergey’s Place

A hobo historian calls this place home. Nobody's seen him in a while though.

Boyd Residence

Will Boyd lives here, or at least he did. No one in the valley talks about him. And for good reason.

Strickland Farm

Property owned by the Strickland family of farmers. No friends to Eden’s Gate.

U.S. Auto

A scrap yard containing trashed cars, broken farm equipment, and even a few busted planes. Eden's Gate uses the garage to build and maintain their convoys.

Doverspike Compound

Les Doverspike was a militia nut and he built himself a bunker. Nobody in the prepper community liked him. Despite that, he was anti-cult and pro-Resistance.

Harris Residence

Mike and Deb Harris were preppers with a cunning plan to keep themselves fed after the end of the world.

Reservoir Construction Yard

Deep North Water wanted to build a new reservoir for the Holland Valley. The company ran out of funding and was chased away by Eden’s Gate.

Dodd’s Dumps

Colin Dodd used to run garbage disposal for the whole Holland Valley, and his business lot shows it. The cult intimidated him into leaving but has yet to sort through all he left behind.

Davenport Farm

The remains of a run-down farm. Local farmers let their cows graze here. Can't let good land go to waste.

Hilgard Electric Power Station

The Holland Valley's power supply is reliant on this transformer station which is controlled by Eden's Gate.

Golden Valley Gas

Once the kind of gas station that gave out free bubble gum to kids, Golden Valley is now a strategic point of gasoline and auto maintenance for the Project at Eden's Gate.

Green-Busch Fertilizer Co.

Facing a decline in business, the Green-Busch family said “yes” and sold the place to John Seed on the condition that locals could keep their jobs and work alongside Eden's Gate.

St. Isidore School

Once a religious boarding school, it was forced to close its doors by Eden's Gate.

Dodd Residence

Home of Colin Dodd, hoarder and DIY enthusiast. He never throws anything out. His granddaughter Nadine's been known to lurk here.

Roberts Cabin

Home of Joe Roberts, a hunter. He's gone missing. He loved hunting deer above all else.

Hope County Clinic

Dr. Kim Patterson provides medical services to Hope County's farmers and low-income residents, many of whom would never receive care in such a remote area.

Holland Valley Station

In the days that it was up and running, Copperhead Rail used to stop here. Eden’s Gate uses this station to catch people who try to escape the region.

Grain Elevator

As the farmlands started to collapse, the grain elevator was the first casualty. Too expensive to maintain.

Henbane River Rail Bridge

Copperhead Rail was created in the 1880s during a mining boom, and shut down in the early 70s after the industry collapsed.

Flatiron Stockyards

Bobby Budell established the stock yards in 1946, and has proudly provided farm and ranch auction services since. The economic and community base employed over 25 people at its height.

Fillmore Residence

Home of Doug Fillmore. Not much is known about him.

Dupree Residence

Home of Tommy Dupree, an idiot who used to work at Green-Busch Fertilizer Co. He got fired by Eden's Gate because he was as dumb as the crap he bagged.

Catamount Mines

Fall’s End owes its existence to the gold Orville Fall discovered here in 1865. The mine brought a generation of prosperity to the region until a suspicious accident entombed 100 men within it, forcing its closure in 1912.

Sunrise Farm

Sunrise Farm was going under, so owners Mike and Chandra Dunagan reluctantly sold it to Eden's Gate. Big mistake.

Deep North Irrigation Reservoir

Originally designed to irrigate farms, the reservoir became a liability when the cult began putting Bliss in the water supply. The Resistance sealed it up to buy themselves time.

Red’s Farm Supply

The Redler family has run this place for 4 generations, and earned a reputation for honest business. Wendell did his best to keep it out of cult hands.

Purpletop Telecom Tower

In the 1950s, Purpletop Telecom built this tower, blessing people with the wonders of AM radio. As time and technology marched forward, they were also given the American splendor of a local TV station.

Woodson Pig Farm

This place has been in the Woodson family since 1943. Current owners Andrew and Frances Woodson used their wealth to try to stand up to John Seed and fight him in court. They lost, and joined the Resistance.

Sawyer Residence

Don Sawyer came from out of town to join the Project at Eden's Gate. He restores canoes, but isn't very good at it. Visitors have sworn they've heard him swearing in Russian over those boats.

Hyde Barn

Kenny Hyde's a poor man in Holland Valley, but that doesn't stop him from loving deep fried balls. He's the proud keeper of Fall’s End Testy Festy decorations, stashing them at his barn until they're needed.

Kupka Ranch

Zip Kupka's the only one who really knows what's going on in the Holland Valley.

John’s Gate

A missile silo long decommissioned and abandoned. The locals used to call it "Area 68." Eden's Gate bought it in secret and turned it into a bunker that is in John Seed's safekeeping until the Collapse.

Security Gate

Formerly the entrance to the missile silo, it's now the gateway to John Seed's bunker. Everything taken in the Reaping passes through this checkpoint.

Steele Farm

The Steele family managed to get their kids out of Hope County, but stayed behind to try and defend their home from Eden's Gate.

Lamb of God Church

A Lutheran church. Its elderly priest was overshadowed by Pastor Jerome’s charismatic sermons. John once asked the priest to say “yes.” Not a chance. Then, the priest was gone. He had taken a “long vacation.”

Lamb of God Sacristy

The Project at Eden's Gate has turned the Lamb of God Church's sacristy into a holding place for everything they need to baptize people at the water's edge.

Armstrong Residence

The Project at Eden's Gate targeted the Armstrong family early, burning their home to the ground when Grace Armstrong refused to devote her sharpshooting skills to the Father's cause.

Bradbury Tractor Shed

A shed for tractors.

Hope County Jail Bus

Prisoners hijacked this bus but were run off the road. The wreck was left to rot in the woods. When Eden's Gate brought prohibition to Hope County, some enterprising moonshiners set up shop behind the cult’s back.

Parker Laboratories

Home and workshop of Dr. Laurence Parker, and the origin of many mysterious noise complaints.

Seed Ranch

The power of yes gave John Seed this dream ranch overlooking the Holland Valley. it has commanding views, a private air strip, and secluded soundproofed rooms for his most invigorating religious pursuits.

Bradbury Farm

The home of the Bradbury family, hay farmers for generations. The strange pattern of dead hay in the field does not impact the quality of the final product. That's the Bradbury guarantee.

Bradbury Hay Field

Bradbury Farm's hay is baled and stored here before being sold to clients looking to feed their livestock with quality hay.

Laurel Residence

Laurel family honey was a local market favorite until their bee colony collapsed and jeopardized the business. It also spooked the Laurels who sunk money into a bunker and became preppers overnight.

Eden’s Gate Greenhouse

Bliss plants are found throughout the Henbane River, but they're also found here. John Seed takes the flowers he receives by boat from the east and plants them in his greenhouse.

Seed Boat Launch

Once a favorite spot for summer frolickers, this boat launch is used by John Seed for receiving shipments of Bliss and other supplies from elsewhere in Hope County.

Rye & Sons Aviation

This plot of land was first settled in 1920 by Willard Rye. He started a crop dusting business. His sons inherited both and it now belongs to the current generation of Ryes: Nick & Kim.

Kellett Cattle Co.

The Kellett family supplied beef for 3 generations. These proud Republicans thought they recognized the American spirit in Eden’s Gate, but when John Seed asked them to serve the Project, they said “no.”

Fall’s End

After prospector Orville Fall struck gold, his small mining camp quickly grew. Decades later, his rival, rail baron Emmett Reaves, shot him dead in the streets, giving the town its official name.

Old Silo

Welcome to the middle of it.

Kay-Nine Kennels

The owner, Kay Wheeler, loved her dogs more than life itself. She bred and trained hunting and guard dogs. When Eden’s Gate showed up, the local demand for guard dogs tripled. John Seed noticed and took action.

Sunrise Threshing

A silo and shed complex attached to Sunrise Farm. Rumor has it that Mike Dunagan's stashed a lot of cool shit around here somewhere.

Redler Residence

Home of Wendell Redler, local businessman and Vietnam veteran.

Adams Ranch

Jules Adams lost her husband in an "accident" after saying no to John Seed. Her family's struggled to keep the cattle ranch out of cult hands ever since.

Miller Residence

Despite financial hardship, the Miller family refused the cult’s invitations, prepping for doomsday all on their own. When the reaping came, Jerry Miller was out working.

Wellington Residence

The Wellington family mine is an urban legend, supposedly stuffed with gold, explosives, or both depending who you ask. Generations of Wellingtons (possibly inbred) have tried and failed to strike it rich here.

Hi! This is your FC5 Anniversary event person. I wanted to just ask you a couple of questions for your gift! First, were Evelyn and Joey together before the events of the game? And is there anything that is crucial to know or include about Evie that’s not in her tag? Or about Evie and Joey?

Oh hello~ what a coincidence running into you here-

Asdfgh ok uh. Evelyn and Joey were dating before the events of the game. She had a massive crush on Joey back in high school when they were best friends at the age of 17, which blossomed into more after Evelyn moved out to Helena for a job as a pilot. She returned to Fall's End every now and then to visit her father, which was also kinda an excuse for her to see Joey.

They decided to try long distance but Evie does think about finding work in Hope County to be closer to Joey. So when her father dies and she's insistent on finishing what he started, she joins the Sheriff's office and moves in with Joey.

And then the main game starts (a year later)

Some notes that just randomly came to mind because i don't know what's crucial or not 😭

Evie is exactly two centimeters smaller than Joey. (She's also taller than John. It's not important, I just like bringing it up)

Joey loves stealing Evie's bomber jacket, which she got from her father who, in turn, got it from his father. Evie's grandfather happens to be one of Wendell Redler's friends- anyway Evie also has a gay flag pin on her jacket.

I have a very large part of her story, up until the end of John's region, on her bio but it's very long and idk if it'll help 😅

WELCOME TO HOPE COUNTY, MONTANA.

With the motto “Freedom, Faith and Firearms,” Hope County was a fine place to earn an honest living, find peace and solitude in the great outdoors, get away from the ever-encroaching urban sprawl, gaze up at the stars, and live free without an overbearing government or regulations. But now that the Project at Eden’s Gate cult, known as “Peggies” in these parts, has arrived, the good folks of Hope County are under attack. Backed by his siblings and an army of fanatics, the Father is quickly cultivating lost souls and preparing them for the Collapse. And leaving a lot of blood and bodies in his wake.

Richard “Dutch” Roosevelt

The voice of the Resistance, Dutch has a checkered past and crotchety demeanor, but he is a vast source of knowledge about the cult. He wants Hope County back and is here to help you use every tool at your disposal to ensure Joseph Seed gives his next sermon from the grave.

PROJECT AT EDEN’S GATE: THE BAD SEEDS

Joseph Seed: The Father

Hailing from a small town in Georgia, Joseph heard a voice telling him to “save as many as you can, whether they wish to be saved or not.” He knows the world is headed for the Collapse. He is driven only by the Voice and the knowledge that he alone is humanity’s savior.

Jacob Seed: Herald of Whitefall Mountains

A cold-blooded Gulf War vet with a penchant for animal experimentation, Jacob is tasked with building an army of followers for his brother Joseph.

John Seed: Herald of Holland Valley

Younger brother of Joseph, John runs a successful law practice and is adept at marketing, using the power of “YES” to coax the curious into the cult.

Faith Seed: Herald of Henbane River

Joseph’s voice, proselytizing his message and keeping the congregation in a state of “bliss,” Faith is responsible for converting people and keeping them sedated with a mix of spirituality, drugs and music.

THE HOLLAND RESISTANCE

Mary May Fairgrave

Born and raised here, life wasn’t always easy, but it was good. When Mary May’s parents died, the bank seized the Spread Eagle saloon, and the Project at Eden’s Gate bought it for pennies. She’s not going to let this stand.

Find her at Fall’s End.

Pastor Jerome Jeffries

Serving in the first Gulf War and witnessing combat up close, Pastor Jerome first met Joseph ten years ago, but it wasn’t long before his unorthodox worship started to worry the Pastor. Then came the lockdown.

Find him at Fall’s End.

Nick Rye

All of his life, Nick has resisted the idea of going to war, especially after John Seed’s aggressive attempts to buy Rye’s crop-dusting business. It’s time to become a true American hero (as long as his wife says it’s okay).

Find him at Rye & Sons Aviation.

THE WHITEHALL MILITIA

The leader of the Whitetail Militia, Eli struggles to keep his people alive against Jacob and his ever-growing army of converts.

Find him at Wolf’s Den.

Tammy Barnes

A tough-as-nails prepper who doesn’t suffer fools, Tammy is chief interrogator for the Whitetails and has a knack or getting answers from even the most hardened cultists.

Find her at Wolf’s Den.

Wheaty

Wheaty is the third main member of the Whitetail Militia; a young, smart war vet with a quick wit, who wants to prove his worth and take down the cult any way he can. Joining the Resistance to help cope with a buddy’s death, he becomes more devoted to the cause every day.

THE HENBANE RIVER COUGARS

Sheriff Earl Whitehorse

Earl was selected as sheriff of Hope County because he’s touch, fair, and can let the crap roll off his back when he needs to. But the work has taken a toll, leading to one divorce and a mild heart attack.

Find him at Hope County Jail.

Mayor Virgil Minkler

When Virgil heard rumors that the Project at Eden’s Gate was involved in drug running, he went blind with rage. He’s not going to sell out his people just to win back his job. He wants these degenerate Peggies out of the region.

Find him at Hope County Jail.

Tracey Lader

Far Cry 5: Hours Of Darkness Saw The Series Go Totally Rambo

Far Cry 5: Hours Of Darkness saw the franchise briefly go full Rambo. The original Far Cry was released back in 2004 and followed an ex-soldier named Jack Carver who is stranded on a lush jungle filled with mercenaries. The game's open-world allowed for flexible playstyles, and the franchise would go from strength to strength. Arguably the most popular entry is Far Cry 3, which refined what worked about previous titles while adding some great villains.

The series is also known for its solid spinoff titles, such as Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, which found players in a neon-drenched, 1980s style action movie with the main character voiced by Michael Biehn (The Terminator). Titles Far Cry Primal - which was set in 10,000 BC and thus featured no firearms - have allowed Ubisoft to be a little more creative with the franchise. Far Cry even received a poorly-reviewed movie adaptation in 2008 from director Uwe Boll that went straight to DVD.

Related: Rambo Movies, Ranked Worst To Best

Far Cry 5: Hours Of Darkness is a prequel DLC for the main game, which follows the character of Wendell Redler during his time in Vietnam. When the helicopter Redler and his squadmates are in is shot down, he has to sneak through hostile territory to reach his extraction point. This Far Cry 5 DLC was greeted with disappointment for its short length and adding little to the core gameplay mechanics, but its a solid little campaign that also allows players to live out their Rambo fantasies.

Far Cry 5: Hours Of Darkness is a campaign that rewards stealth and patience over blazing gunfire. The bow & arrow is the player's greatest weapon and sticking to the darkness is a must. While it's possible to skip most of the sidequests like rescuing prisoners and just rush to the extraction point, the entire map - including the underground tunnels - needs to be explored to get the most from it. There's also a voice heard over propaganda speakers that taunts gamers in what feels like a nod to The Warriors and adds greatly to the DLC's atmosphere.

While Far Cry 5: Hours Of Darkness is trying to evoke other classic Vietnam movies like The Deer Hunter or Apocalypse Now, it feels like an ode to Rambo: First Blood Part II more than anything. From stalking enemies through the forest with a bow & arrow, rescuing POWs or wreaking havoc with a large M-60 machine gun, Far Cry 5: Hours Of Darkness is a better adaptation of the series than 2014's famously poor Rambo: The Video Game.

“I had a good crew. We were brothers...”

For those of you who’ve beaten Far Cry 5, Joseph Seed & his Flock to return much needed peace to Hope County, this one’s for you! A short while ago the new DLC for the game entitled ‘Hours of Darkness’ became available via the Season Pass or stand-alone purchase on PSN.

The story takes place through the eyes of Hope County’s resident Vietnam veteran, Wendell Redler and sends us back in time to his experiences behind enemy lines during the war. This explosive trailer shows a glimpse of what’s to come as we tactically shoot our way through war-torn Vietnam and take down Viet-Cong. With squad mates to rescue from capture along the way, it’s up to us to get the boys home to their families and make it through to the present day.

We’re told to expect a detailed Vietnamese war-zone and to be armed with new abilities such as ‘Survival Instinct’. Of course it wouldn’t be Far Cry if it didn’t also mean some up close personal encounters with local wildlife... Just watch the trailer for more on that!

It’s also confirmed that completing ‘Hours of Darkness’ will unlock new modes, giving you reason to return to Vietnam for more “sightseeing”...

You can purchase the DLC at the following link via PSN:

https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/product/EP0001-CUSA05847_00-FC5DLCVIETNAM000

If you’re a first timer to Hope County and want to get to grips with the locals first, then you can purchase ‘Far Cry 5′ with us on PS4 & Xbox One right here at The Game Collection!

A few of Far Cry 5’s characters’ former names (according to the files)

Did you know that some characters used to have different names? Here’s what I found:

Adelaide Drubman - Penny Johnson (I’m not sure; it’s unclear)

Casey Fixman - Casey Seagal or Casey Storm

Chad Wolanski - Chad Gardetto

Faith Seed - Selena Seed

George Wilson - George Beel

Guy Marvel - Guy Martel (headcanon: it’s still his name but he thought Marvel was a cooler name for a movie director)

Hurk Drubman Senior - Wayne Senior

Joseph Seed - Daniel Seed

Merle Briggs - Merle Clinton

Wilhelmina Mable - Wilhelmina Maybelline

Tammy Barnes - Tammy Palmer (was she supposed to be Eli’s wife? Maybe!)

Tracey Lader - Traci West

Virgil Minkler - Virgil Knutsen

Wendell Redler - Wendell Darrah

Xander Flynn - Bob Johnson (again, like for Adelaide, not sure)

Also, I’ve said this before but Deputy Pratt’s first name is actually Stacy and not Staci. In the files, it’s only not spelled Stacy once, in the end credits... which is also, unfortunately, the only time players had a chance to see it written.

According to the files, Larry Parker’s first name is Laurence, the man we meet near Arcade machines is Morris Aubrey, and the fisherman is Coyote Nelson… but his description in the unreleased in-game encyclopedia also implies he died, so that might be inaccurate.

Below are the names of other Hope County residents (and where they live(d) and/or work(ed)) found in the deleted in-game encyclopedia:

Daniel Holmes — Holmes Residence

Doug and Debbie Hadler — Gardenview Orchards, Ciderworks, and Packing Facility

Rae-Rae Bouthillier — Rae-Rae's Pumpkin Farm

Niesha Howard — Howard Cabin

Emmet Reaves (in the late 1800s) — Copperhead Rail Yard & Prosperity

Will Boyd (from Far Cry: Absolution; his full name is William) — Boyd Residence

Les Doverspike — Doverspike Compound

Mike and Deb Harris — Harris Residence

Wolfgang Dodd — Dodd’s Dumps

Colin Dodd (Nadine Abercrombie’s grandfather) — Dodd Residence

Joe Roberts — Roberts Cabin

Dr. Kim Patterson — Hope County Clinic

Bobby Budell (in 1946) — Flatiron Stockyards

Doug Fillmore — Fillmore Residence

Orville Fall (found gold in 1865) — Catamount Mines

Mike and Chandra Dunagan — Sunrise Farm

The Redler family (Wendell’s) — Red’s Farm Supply

Andrew and Frances Woodson — Woodson Pig Farm

Don Sawyer — Sawyer Residence

Kay Wheeler — Kay-Nine Kennels
