So... I've been using the rock lately. You know, that one you're always throwing to distract people. Has anyone else noticed you can use it more than once on the same guy? He just keeps getting super annoyed saying things like "Who keeps doing that?!" You can lure him basically anywhere. edit: vv I have no idea!

I really appreciate that all of the radio towers are different. It seems like something Ubisoft of old would have just made super repetitive but each one is its own unique little climbing puzzle. I also appreciate how ballsy they were with the drug references in this game. There's no sugarcoating or making up fake drug names or anything like that, it's all "here are some hosed up people on some hosed up poo poo and oh yeah here's who's supplying them with date rape drugs."

Just had some buddies show up on a Kill Target mission, allowing me to sprint towards the encampment at full speed, leap over a railing like an olympic hurdler and drive my machete into the target's belly while everyone was distracted firing at the friendly technical. poo poo was delightful.

The amount of fun I'm having setting large predators on pirates can't be healthy. Also it's nice seeing the shotguns being useful again: in FC2 they were useless, but in this game they pack a punch and have decent range.

Adraeus, I said that very specific, small part was inexcusably badly designed, I don't think you read what you think, man.Speedball posted:This game might be one huge reference to The Beach then, I guess... Yeah, totally, at least it's a very clear homage in some spots. The problem is I don't know where this all kind of going; I've got no real wether they're entirely earnesy with this whole thing, or if the awful writing so far is part of the joke. I want to see where it goes, but I don't have high hopes at this point. Shirkelton fucked around with this message at 23:54 on Nov 29, 2012 |

Wow, according to that video, tigers actually attack goats the way cats should in real life--by going for the neck. It wasn't just a generic "swipe at it with my paws" animation. I love it.

Apparently that VPN only works three times per day, per person. :/ I've unlocked the game, entered my key, and even ran it, but now I can't get back in. Steam is just saying pre-load, blah blah. Any thoughts?

Run the game from the shortcut. quote:"E:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Far Cry 3\bin\farcry3.exe" -uplay_steam_mode -language=English -steam_mode Use the path to the executable on your system.

Disconnect from the VPN and go online with Steam. Find the game in your Library and select "CD Key" from the right-aligned Links menu.

I was just trying to take an outpost by stealth (which usually means setting everything on fire but that still counts as stealth if they don't see you!) and while trying to flank some guards I was set upon by a pack of about eight cassowaries who then proceeded to kick me to death.

I got my life saved by a Komodo dragon early in the game when I was out of ammo and health, hiding behind a slim tree agains the last attacker and my animal friend snuck up behind him and crushed that bitch. drat nature, you scary.

I'm having an issue with scopes. Anything that magnifies has no crosshair like the description says it should, like on sniper rifles or the marksman sight for the bow. Red dots and reflex sights work fine. Anyone else have this?

Anyone know where the island region is supposed to be? The other guys on your side keep saying Kia ora, which I learned from visiting New Zealand is Maori for "hi", which makes me want to say that it has to be somewhere around NZ, but has anyone seen anything more concrete?

nexus6 posted:Didn't see an answer in the OP, is this game as annoying as Far Cry 2? Far Cry 2 had a lot of promise but I stopped playing it altogther because Except for repetitive missions, yes. Weapons can't be broken, stealth is super easy, your allies don't try to kill you and once you clear an outpost that whole area becomes pirate-free.

There's Dingos and Cassowaries so it seems vaguely New Guinean, but I doubt it matches up 100% with any one area.

I love how the guns feel in this game. They really pack a punch and they are really accurate. Also I managed to get killed by a Bison earlier. I was shooting at pirates and a Bison charged at me from behind and crushed me on a tree .

The 1911 feels really great, I'm just dissapointed it can't field a supressor in singleplayer for no real reason. It has one in multiplayer, and I suspect one of th signature weapons is equipped with one, but those seem to have all manner of sights and goofy poo poo slapped onto them.

Hey Golden Tiger: gently caress you and everything that looks like you. I had to kill three normal tigers, at night, during a loving thunderstorm, before I finally found the right one. Tigers are loving scary. Also changing the key you have to smash for the QTE to survive the tiger attack is loving stupid.

I was surprised by that too. But hey, I have a silenced MP 5 and a silenced sniper now. Also gently caress sneaking, guns blazing or bust!

Good weapon audio is one of the most important things in an FPS for me (that's why I love everything made by DICE), and Ubisoft Montreal nailed it. When I pulled the trigger on the 1911 I thought "Yup, this game gets it". Also, I just spent 2-3 hours playing coop. It's great, I can't wait to play with some friends, cause pubbies are terrible. edit: Can anyone explain "Decoding" to me?
