Crappy Jack posted:Yeah, and from what I've seen they all seem to share the same model, so if there are any outfits that have you not wearing a baseball cap and coat of whatever color, we haven't seen them yet. That's upsetting. It seemed like hiding your identity was a gameplay mechanic, so I assumed that switching your style up might help.

If you want all the actually good parts of FC3 without the pretentious schizophrenic tripe that is the story of Jason Brodude: White Messiah of The Noble Savages, just spend an evening playing through Blood Dragon. Unless you have a low tolerance for heavily contrasted neon lighting and kinda niche referential humour, in which case don't play either game because some decent open-world fuckery just ain't worth it. Also kind of a bummer that Aiden will probably wear the same outfit through the whole game. Can only imagine how horrid the stench must be coming out of that goony-rear end trenchcoat after a while.

The basic idea behind it doesn't change, he's always wearing a hip-length jacket and a cap, but different outfits have different colors and textures. I was wearing one for a while that was khakis and a parka, for example. Disclaimer: I'm working on the official strategy guide, so that's how I know.

He uses the pockets on the jacket a lot, both to carry stuff like his phone and baton and just as part of his usual animations.

I'd say it's partially that and partially because they wanted his character design to remain consistent. I mock the trenchcoat, but I see what they're going for with it, the whole theme of the game is pretty blatantly going for a modern cyberpunk vibe, so it fits well enough. Also coat physics are neat. I do agree that the hat should be removable, though. Moartoast fucked around with this message at 20:48 on Apr 14, 2014 |

I'm kind of hoping the permanent Hat is to hide a Bald Spot and he's just really self conscious about it.

Anything you can tell us gameplay or storywise we don't already know that doesn't violate the NDA you're undoubtedly under? And do you get to jack around with multi or are you stuck single player because that's primarily what your guide is going to cover or whatever?

I played FC3 to the end. You don't play FC3 for the loving story. You play it to drive around an island shanking idiots from the foliage and getting ambushed by tigers. Hell, collecting like 1/3 of the collectibles nets you literal invincibility and 1-hit magic mode. If you want to play a game with a good story as a bow wielding bad rear end left alone on a tropical island trying to rescue your friends, play Tomb Raider.

Tomb Raider had a better story, but I wasn't as impressed with the gameplay (though it was still drat fun - jesus were the collectibles so much more annoying in that game though).

That actually looks okay-ish in spite of the Fedora. At least it looks more interesting than the original design (which I didn't even mind in the first place.)
