No joke I think that a vietnam far cry would be loving amazing.

Red Dawn done Far Cry style could be pretty fun. Wolverines! :takes a huge hit of turbo nega-weed and power slams a Russian halftrack: E: still have memory leak issues. Sigh. Guess I'll give my equipment a good once over, but my other games run fine.

Just finished it and watched the other endings on youtube. Not amazing, but good, I think. I really liked the alternate one.

What does weakening the fortresses actually do?

People went in the fortresses through the doors? I thought everyone just snuck over the top as soon as it was possible to physically reach them. Edit: Noore's fortress is hilariously easy and there's no excuse for not conquering it the first time you're there.

I managed to get in basically by mistake and then proceeded to stealth it with no problem through some backdoor in the mountains or whatever. Hadn't done poo poo, I assumed the game wouldn't let me take over a fortress without weakening it first. Welp.

I don't totally get the fortresses. They're not the base of operations for any of the commanders, since those are the prison camp, arena, giant mountain prison, and Min's palace. You never see them there. There's no story missions involving them. I don't get it.

They're weekend retreats. Sometimes you just want to kick back, relax and take in the sights of your heavily fortified death compound.

I like how even though Ajay is a guy who has a history of violent crime and is an unstoppable killing machine, he sounds like a guy who works in tech support and drives a Mazda3.

I like getting the 'choppers to come in while I'm on the roof, so I can set fire to them and everyone inside falls out.

Did anyone else have audio troubles with the Thick Skin, the elephant hunt in the Pagan fortress? It's bugging out and I don't get to hear Chiffon's soothing, encouraging voice. How can I kill an elephant if I can't hear him tell me to be fierce?! ![]() Edit: Actually it's exactly like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcqXzs5md60 No speech heard ![]() Morter fucked around with this message at 18:19 on Jan 3, 2015 |

I like how Ajay sounds loving annoyed sometimes with the side missions. I was asked to defuse a bomb and Ajay definitely got all mad about it lol

The Honey Badgers are surprisingly dangerous, not Tiger or Rhino dangerous, but I'd say that individually they're worse than any of the canines. I think it's the fact they're pretty small makes them hard to hit if they're after you, especially with the bow. On the subject of hunting, where do the Yaks actually appear, I've got the map marker for them near the bridge to the north iirc, but I've only ever seen the one the Sherpa that takes you on Hurk's or Longinus' missions. Also, where do Honey Badgers reliably appear? Also any tips for Amita's version of the De Pleur mission.

Also, one of the fashion week hunting missions really goes out of it's way to say "Look at the honeybadger, it's so deadly, we are a hilarious game. Now laugh!"

So who is the dick that set up the glider in the starting town that clips the tree and instantly kills you as soon as you take off?

Yeah that glider setup was really inexcusable. Far cry 3 had a similar infamous glider, I thought 'surely they will playtest the game this time.' Still don't have a solution for the FOV glitch, even after spending an hour looking. As everyone has noticed, the fov frequently breaks and the slider won't fix it. This is what I hate about games that don't allow modding or cheating - 80% of the time I'd just edit some files or add a console command to fix it but I can't in FC4. Searching is harder because of the stupid 'FOV slider gone? You pirated the game' pollution. As best I can tell nobody online or in this thread has found a permanent solution. For now it seems the best (still bad) is to just quit to the main menu, but this blows if you're in a long mission. edit: changing the resolution and aspect ratio doesn't fix it either.

Note: Does not work on the Tiger, and possibly the Leopards, as they can jump and climb relatively high ledges.

The easiest way I could take out the Sky Tiger was to repeatedly climb and drop off a ledge in his room.

Not to sperg out and go all SJW on this, but I seriously loving hated this mission because elephants are rad in this game and in real life, so I felt a little lovely about "honoring Thick Skin" by burning him alive with a flamethrower.

Elephants do indeed own and I loved seeing an elephant frolicking in a lake near one of the outposts. I always go out of my way to avoid harming them. I don't even particularly like riding them as they get shot at and that's no way to treat my elephant buddies ![]()

Virtually every other animal in the place is permanently locked in an eternal struggle to kill Ajay. It's kill or be killed. Elephants are pretty chill, though, I have no beef with them.

The text for the mission stated that Thick Skin had a disease that had driven it insane and would eventually kill it. I really liked Chiffon as a character. Stay fierce Ajay.
