I thought the Noore stuff could have probably been handled better. Since the first time you encounter her she reveals that she's doing everything under duress she never really gets built up as a villain to you.

Zwabu posted:How the hell do you do the first mission from Amita where they Zerg rush you with a billion Hunters, Jesus Christ. I think part of the problem is I had the wrong equipment loadout instead of having all heavy machine guns and rocket launchers etc. but still. I don't know what the optimal mine configuration is since they seem to come from pretty much everywhere.

I feel like I might be the only person who had no trouble with that mission. I just took it slow and paid attention and managed to kill most of the hunters from stealth. I only hosed up a little during the first section and got spotted but the three hunters remaining choose awful hiding spots and got shot in the face. I stealthed the second section almost entirely, with the only remaining enemies, a pair of normal soldiers, spotting me at the very end. Just go slow and pay attention I guess, most of the hunters are walking through brush, but it isn't that hard to see them if they aren't actively hunting you, especially in the second section. Edit: Granted I read about the mission here before I ever did it which gave me plenty of warning about what type of enemies I was going to be facing and was far more cautious than usual.

I was getting hit with arrows and couldn't figure out what was hitting me, took cover caught sight of one then got dropped by one that flanked me. Second time through I hit the two deeper investigation points then camped a bit and let them sneak into range. Dropped them all, ran bank to the water and get the other investigation item. The ran to the next bit and clearly it pretty fast by keeping in the house and killing them as they ran in with the riotgun.

I got really lucky during that mission i think. I hardly got damaged, and only one rebel died. To my friendly fire.  I guess its because the hunters tended to come right infront of the stationary MG wich one of the rebels used to great effect.

coyo7e posted:There are no rebels when you do the mission for Amita. You're talking about Sabal's version iirc. I played Amiya's mission, but is it just me or did the fact you had to choose to save them or get intel from them not make sense at all? Wouldn't it have been easy to get intel from them when they were alive? I haven't played Sabal's version so correct me if I'm mistaken.

One has intel and is already dead, one is alive but about to be attacked. Sabal wants you to go to the camp that's alive. After the attack has been beaten off you go to the other camp, but the intel's already destroyed. Amita wants you to recover the intel from the dead camp. After that you go to the other camp, but they're already dead.

Without spoiling anything, does the Mask collection lead to anything? Those notes near the masks are pretty creepy. Edit: I just realized I explore %50 of the map and collected everything in the South and south-west and I have not yet done a single story mission.

On that note, the first Noore mission where you bust up De Pleur's creepy human trafficking sex dungeon and kidnap him- I've encountered anything in a game where I was thinking, "oh PLEASE let me be the one to put a bullet in this person."

I never really got the hate for Jason Brody, but the limited amount of an "own" voice make Ajay tie with JC2's Rico for favorite FPS protagonist. Screw narrative coherence or elaborate background stories, his quips usually are just things the player might think which makes him relatable.

Whichever dev decided to make deploy wingsuit the same button as sprint needs to be sacked. I don't know how many times I'm sprinting and try to jump a gap then the suit deploys and slams me headfirst into the ground.

I too, tried to chop Paul into kibble with my kukri before carrying him off. That said, you can totally kill him yourself later. He's in Banashur, near the ATVs, in a cage with his phone's ringtone for his daughter, sounding off over and over. Floppychop posted:Whichever dev decided to make deploy wingsuit the same button as sprint needs to be sacked.  Your complaint is nearly as valid as me bitching about the melee button getting me killed in CoD when I freak out and mash the right thumbstick while trying to aim and spray-and-pray when someone surprises the poo poo out of me.. Take a breath. Calm down. You'll play better.

coyo7e posted:Why are you trying to sprint in midair? I'm not panicking or not being calm. Just from other games I play I have a habit of holding down the sprint button. I also have the tendency to sprint even if it's only a short distance, like in bell towers and around buildings.

I don't even think it's an issue with the same button being used for sprint as well as the wingsuit. It's the game getting confused sometimes about your height, and then popping the wingsuit at the weirdest times. I've had the game think it was wingsuit time when I went over a one foot drop on the terraced farms levels, and then nosediving me into the ground losing a bunch of health.

coyo7e posted:Why are you trying to sprint in midair? You sprint so you can jump further, you hold sprint instinctively since most games work that way instead of press sprint. This leads to jumps where your wingsuit deploys, you slam your head against the mountain and die, and then you have to climb back up to that summit again.

So I took a risk and took down Pagan's fortress with Pagan still alive. Here's hoping I didn't do something unintended that'll lock my game later. Also, I'm four masks from having them all, and it does look like it triggers a mission when you find the last one.

coyo7e posted:I've been playing current and next gen games for like at least a decade, would you care to share some examples of games where the sprint button needs to be held down constantly to keep sprinting? Assassin's Creed, Dark Souls, Lords of the Fallen, Skyrim, Payday 2, I think Battlefield 4 unless you double-tap forward, and I do it out of habit in poo poo like Call of Duty Advanced Warfare because never not baseball slide and I find it easier to roll from shift to ctrl and do that move than to let off, just off the top of my head.

Do you lose karma if you blow off defending your outpost? Or just pass up an opportunity to gain it? What about with other karma events like hostage rescues or saving villagers from dingoes or whatever?
