What I want from a mad max game is no max... I wanna be one of the raider sorts rising up to the rank of immortan and building my armies to kick the poo poo out of everyone across the wasteland, I wanna be able to pick and choose parts for my war rig and send my infinity numbers of warboys to their deaths leaping onto buzzard cars and stuff.

This game is absurdly fun, I haven't enjoyed a game quite so much in a long time. I finished the main story yesterday and I've got a few wasteland missions plus territories to reduce threat in left to do now. I have a handful of screenshots I've taken so here's a few favourites, I do quite like explosions!

This. Basically I want a Citadel management system like in MGSV I assume, I haven't really played that yet. Also I've yet to see any indication you can drink your urine in-game. It was part of the promotional material and everything.

I assume the "ride off into the storm forever" thing was cut as well, seeing as you just leak health and die no matter how armored and chrome you are?

Restarting the game fixed it, which i should have tried before posting. The storm just continued to rage inside the strongholds tho by the way.

Clearing territories to 0 threat is such a loving pain in the rear end (but goddamnit I want those top-tier shredder rims)- I've got Jeet's territory to 1, with not even a sliver of yellow left. The stupid goddamn thing SHOULD be 0, but I think there's a minefield out there somewhere that I haven't found yet. Part of upgrading the stronghold's survey crew should really mark minefields down on the map, because I've cleared out every other goddamn redblip there is, and I'm not even certain that I'm missing a minefield. It's infuriating. Hell, I don't even mind doing the actual minefield clearing, I like chilling with dog. If anything, I just wish that the dog had more uses in-game. Like, in addition to minefields, the dog would find food lying around that would replace the water bottle as healthpacks. So if you want to prepare for a tough base, you'd go scavenge around with the dog a bit and find some dinky-di tins or something. Make him useful! Just have him run away/hide when combat begins, and afterwards maybe he comes and finds you with some scrap or other goodies he scavenged. More dog.

Of course, I'm fairly sure Scrotus kills it at the end, so…

I've finished the story and finally got the final V8 upgrade at 62 hours in. Many of those hours were me driving aimlessly trying to find those god drat minefields before realizing the map tells you which territory the missing ones are in. Even still, the pro's outweigh the cons for me and this really scratches an itch I didn't realize I had: brutal vehicular combat And wall kills  I doubt there will be a sequel but I hope we get some DLC.

So suddenly my map won't come up. GIS tells me that it was fixable by picking up scrap, going to a balloon, or finishing an objective, but that the latest patch broke those fixes.

After playing for a while GUI text will stop showing up (Junk counters, danger level drops, anything else that would cause text onscreen.) Sometimes a cut scene will fix it, like reflling the canteen or disarming a mine, but lately that stopped working and I have to quit out to the main menu and reload.

This game was barely working on my laptop (I think due to issues caused by the fact that it has two video cards?!? This is my first laptop ever and I had no idea that kind of craziness was even possible.) and I think I'm going to hold off patching until they work out some kinks. How many rounds of patching do modern games go through these days?

Two cards is common on newer laptops. It's a power saving feature. In the card controll panel you should be able to force the game to run on the more powerful card

How many rounds of patching do modern games go through these days? Sounds like you might have something like Nvidia's Optimus, which is supposed to be smart enough to know when to switch between the integrated graphics and the dedicated GPU. But even on my laptop it frequently wants to run a fairly intensive game with the integrated when I have a perfectly good GTX 960 to do the actual work. Like the other poster said, you have to go into your graphics control panel and find the executable for Mad Max and tell it to always run with your actual GPU. If you've run the game recently it should be pretty easy to find, since at least Nvidia's control panel will put the most recent stuff at the top of the list.

Thanks for the tips, guys, I'll see if I can figure something out. I have really limited free time right now so I decided to just stop trying to fix it and play this REALLY FUN GAME as best I could. Which usually meant restarting a few times until it finally started correctly-ish. It'd be really exciting if I can actually reliably get this game to start and run well.

For what it's worth, this game was really trouble-free from launch up until this last patch. Which is kinda unusual these days. Now we just have to wait for a patch to fix the patch.

I like this game but gently caress me i'm so sick of my ultimate car being so god damned fragile even with the highest armour upgrade. The slightest loving knock sends you flying and the convoy defenders always outmanoeuvre you with speed so it's hard to just drop back and take them out.

Well the biggest/toughest armor (and ramming grill) is really heavy, and will decrease your handling quite a bit. If you want speed and maneuverability, you'll have to sacrifice some armor. With all unlocks, I usually run with the biggest engine and the middle armor and grill (and of course the best shocks). Also make sure you either boost out of the way (or into them) or ram them when they ram you. The bigger/heavier trucks and such might knock you around a bit but the smaller ones shouldn't if you ram back. Lazlow fucked around with this message at 00:40 on Oct 4, 2015 |

It's unbelievable how badly the patch broke the game. The action randomly slows to a hard studder. stuff like flames and dust is still running at full speed, but max and the car are only running at 5-10 and cpu usage drops to about 10% the car also randomly gets "stuck" where accelerating just makes it squat instead of moving forward. turning off the roll-over thing seems to fix this, but that sucks too. i just finished a run through the story in a hair over 7 hours. that includes about an hour of wasteland stuff it forces you to do. the story is a lot more fun when max isn't an armored up badass in a tank.

I was really down on helping Gutgash, what with the talk of his crew being a mix of slavers and religious nuts, plus the whole start of Act 2 oddness, but I'm glad I did, because his t3 Stronghold is the cutest thing ever. Kids suddenly appear all over the place and chalk up every single wall in the place. Pictures of Max, pictures of the ocean, etc etc. Hilariously enough, I think the plot is also spoiled in a bunch of these chalk drawings, at least the ones with people, haha.

Having a religion based on a benevolent seafood mascot is pretty mild as far as mad max wasteland religion goes. I guess Gutgash is a good guy after all.

Just started this game. Do the garage upgrades all unlock at once after a certain story mission, or is it just piecemeal?

Are there any maps that show where to find all of the minefields, scarecrows, etc? I'm finding a ton of youtube videos for them... but I'd rather look a picture of a map and find what I need within a few seconds than have to watch a video.

Any tips on filling my fury meter in 10 seconds? Fury holds over between fights, but the Challenges for it are based on a start fight basis. So if you start a fight with just enough Fury meter that one kills pops Fury, and then start a fight with Gutshot, well, you get the Challenge. Or basically just keep loving running into fight after fight. I got it in one of the Stank Gum camps in the Chalkies, the one with the bridges? Beat up one group, Fury procced, then ran out, then ran across the bridge to the other group and beat them up with 75% Fury still in the chamber. Procced instantly, and I got the Challenge. My question is how you did the Guardian/Exile/Messenger, because those seem like the worst grinds!

Guardian and Messenger just took a lot of attempts and practice at death runs to get legendary times with each Archangel. Exile (defeat an enemy with each archangel) was easier. I just went up to the garbage dump around Gastown and thunderpooned cars. I started with The Jack and and as soon as I killed the first, went into garage, changed archangel setup, killed the next, and so on until I'd killed one car with each config.
