 so is this area different for anyone? I noticed the key for this door next to the FNC crate never spawned (you can just blow the door up but whatever), so I looked it up and some people are saying this is a checkpoint you can take over. It's not one, for me. Some people are saying that you can eventually get the mission to take that checkpoint if you just keep following the story, but I'm up to the Verdera Prisoner Rescue and it seems weird to me that it's taking so long since that point is right next to the base lol

Am I a weirdo for kind of missing Montana and hell even Kyrat. It’s not that the locations or ugly or anything it just feels been there done that in a weird way. I suspect that’s mostly because of jungle settings being very common in FPS and other genres vs Montana.

they kind of correct the trajectory of the throwing axe/knife a little bit. it's not like a robocop lock-on, you still have to be mostly on target, but you don't have to be nearly as accurate for kill-shots My go-to for stealth at this point is those gloves + throwing axes + the mac-11 silenced, with the silencer cooldown speed reduction and body-shot damage mods. Just sprinting around compounds at full speed mulching people lol

I've found the AS VAL is top tier for stealth, good at range, good close up, and a built in suppressor so it never overheats.

For the checkpoints you can just roll up on it, blow up the billboard and clear the soldados and it’ll flip. No need to wait for the mission to pop if you’re there and ready to rock and roll. At one point I grabbed a tank and cleared all the checkpoints on one of the major roads. It owned.

The gun play also always delivers. So far, I think FC6 is significantly better than the previous games. I’m playing on PS5, just got to the main world, and I’m free flowing from place to place in between missions and feeling pretty awesome in big gun fights. The mobility and shooting is quite good and I feel I can rush around from cover to cover, zig zag through buildings, flank, etc and really close in kill the enemies. It’s definitely a break away from the priors, where silenced bow/sniper action before going hot was pretty much mandatory to deal with the onslaught of ads. Something about the weapons being built out of literal guerrilla junk and the heavier focus on close-mid distance fighting makes this a lot more fun. this. i think the game is probably the best since 4 and probably the best one outside blood dragon. one of the things i like are how dynamic battles happen all the time in far cry games. its cool.

It looks like a checkpoint that just didn't spawn properly. I've seen videos of people picking up the key to that door, but the key didn't spawn for me. You can blow up the door to get the chest inside but I don't want to like, lock out the checkpoint or whatever in case it's not spawning because of a bug lol

As for the minimap, I think you turn it back on in the HUD settings. Oh okay, i know exactly what I'm looking for. I turned on outlines because at lowest settings I couldn't see any enemies unless they were right in front of me. I love the parachute, it makes me feel like i'm in a FPS Just Cause game. Also I fought my first armored enemy, and i just kept blasting him with the incendiary shotgun as he screamed and died. Next time don't join the fascist army. I would rather carry this than the weak rear end flamer.

Yeah I know, the problem is the checkpoint isn't spawning for me to flip.

Ranks add new stuff to shops, not sure if they do anything else. Remember that mods are shared within a category. If you've built a rifle silencer then you can put it on as many rifles as you like, but will need a seperate shotgun silencer.

I have the AK and the FAL and I had to make AP ammo for the AK. Or maybe I just thought I did. I think Rank does something like reduce or increase damage. I tried to take on the 4 rank stuff on tutorial island when i was only rank 2 and got just destroyed. But at Rank 3 i was able to do it will some difficulty, but no more one hit means death.

I toured through a Rank 8 Main Town as a Rank 3, two headshots from my starter island rifle to take people down. Took the checkpoints that lead into the city, now who's surrounded  Are non-unique weapons crate locations randomized? I've somehow managed to get every single Auto-Pistol but not single one regular one outside of the starter pistol and a revolver that I bought that's no better than the Autocrat unique I got but it has less ammo and a longer reload.

The flamethrower seemed to have two modes. If your not ads’ing it’s kind of a wide spray but very close range. If you ads it turns into a mid range fire squirter (my nickname in high school). Can I just say the haptic triggers on PS5 are incredible? I didn’t know the resistance in them could go that high. Flying a junk helicopter around or driving a crappy car is just.. it’s so legit. TLOU2 really definitively nailed the haptic effect of riding a horse and this is like 6/10 that. Kinda my only sadness is the horse riding doesn’t feel like TLOU2 riding. Seriously if any of you haven’t used haptic PS5 controllers, or played TLOU2 or my god Returnal.. you’re really missing out on prob one of the best advances in games this decade.

If you ads it turns into a mid range fire squirter (my nickname in high school). The PC version is also compatible with the PS5 controller, and it works with full adaptive trigger functionality. And it does indeed feel awesome. I still prefer playing with a keyboard and mouse, but the PS5 controller support is so good that it's making me want to switch over.

I have flipped probably a dozen or so checkpoints without needing the checkpoint on the map. Just kill the mans and the billboard. Done. I literally roll up on them from nowhere and do this. I'm trying to tell you, you don't need to have it show up on the map to do this.

Not sure why I didn't realize this but you can scan vehicles with your phone and collect them. I know they say to take them back to the vehicle pickup but you don't have to do that. Doesn't work for military vehicles of course.
