dwarf Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 That's one of the coolest things ever. I don't even give a shit about Lost, but the designers are pretty awesome for coming up with the idea.
martinist Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 This arrived yesterday, just been spending most of my time exploring and taking down military bases. ammo is pretty scarce imo, especially if you're using your guns to blow stuff up
Domstercool Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 People not sure about this game really should go check it out. It really tries to say it is a game and not something else, games are about fun and this is at the top of the fun scale, you can do sooooo much stuff and in turn you just sit in your chair chuckling to yourself wondering when was the last time you had this much fun.
Dyson Posted April 3, 2010 Posted April 3, 2010 Absolutely loved the demo and can't wait for this to come through the post. Bought it off ebay for £28.
tapedeck Posted April 6, 2010 Posted April 6, 2010 Bought it. Love it. Will never cover a ton of it...
Dyson Posted April 7, 2010 Posted April 7, 2010 Yup, it came today and I spent about 6 hours straight on it. Awesome game
tapedeck Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 Can't believe more of you don't have this. Granted, it has come at a weird time, but it's a breath of fresh air. Sure, the sandbox design is totally mind-blowing at times (the sheer scale is insane) but the fundamental tools at your disposal make for an adrenaline fuelled experience. You can spend literally hours in just a tiny area of the map working through a ton of content before going off to a whole other area and being surprised all over again - ala GTA: San Andreas. The snowy mountain ruins reminded me of Uncharted 2's latter stages whereas running/driving through the cities felt like GTA. There's then the tropical islands which are brilliantly detailed. I've just been playing it and taking over an oil rig in the middle of a vast lake. As if to prove the scope of the game I was airlifted to the local airport, sky dived out onto the airport roof (take that GTA IV) and stole a jet before plummeting it into the oil rig to destroy it ...all as I was chased by helicopters and as I dived out into the ocean everything exploded in a huge ball of fire! God this game is awesome. Pick it up when you find the time or cash.
Dyson Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 I've run out of thanks for today but I'm with you 100% - this game is awesome.
Rummy Posted June 19, 2010 Posted June 19, 2010 Well, I bought this a few weeks ago for £25 from Asda, having downloaded the demo and managed to keep playing it over and over for about 3 hours with Marcamillian. I came here expecting a bit more of a thread for the game though! I don't know how/why not, but for some reason I'm really struggling to get bored with this game. There's something deliciously satisfying about its ridiculous epic/manliness, and crazy shit just keeps happening. I'm fairly convinced now they've put in a mechanic to make SURE cars blow up after you jump out of them, when they wouldn't if you were in them. Got over 20 hours racked up, and still going. One thing I can say for it, it's definitely a game you can show your friends, and they'll probably love it Anybody on here 100%'d it?
Dyson Posted June 19, 2010 Posted June 19, 2010 I don't think anyone has 100%d it due to how much stuff there is. It's crazy. I love it - get all the DLC for it for major fun. It's worth the entry fee.
Rummy Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 What they offering in the DLC? Also, I've been wondering for a while, but when you blow up pipelines/kill generals/destroy statues/propaganda trailers, and it says stuff like morale or influence being lowered, does that actually even do anything? Other than adding to completion tings?
Dyson Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 Not sure to be honest, I don't think that does anything. There are 4 pieces of DLC - First is a free ice cream truck with a snow plow on the front. God knows why but it's good fun. And free! Second up is a monster truck for 80 points. Has a MG and Grenade Launcher attached to the top of it. Good fun The two best bits are the 160 point DLC's though: One of them is a pack which includes my favourite addition, parachute thrusters. Basically you hold RB whilst parachuting and two jet thrusters propel you forward. It also includes a jet fighter with 4 miniguns and double rockets, and finally a multilock missile launcher. The second pack adds the most fun weapon in an Air Propulsion Gun, which is basically like having an ubercharged leafblower as a weapon. So much fun. It also includes a cluster bomb launcher and a shotgun rocket launcher
Rummy Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 Ok, I won't deny that does sound pretty awesome. I might contemplate purchasing them when I get paid...
tapedeck Posted June 23, 2010 Posted June 23, 2010 DLC stuff sounds awesome. I love this game. It never ceases to amaze me how much fun you can have. Its like one huge playground where you can be as mischievous as you like. Definitely an underrated gem.
Dyson Posted June 23, 2010 Posted June 23, 2010 Apparantly they've added a new free piece of DLC called the Tuk Tuk Boom, and just from the name I already know I'll love it as the Tuk Tuk's make me laugh enough as it is in JC2
RedShell Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 Daaaaaaamn! Excuse me while I pick my jaw up from the floor. :awesome: And try to get my PC sorted out so I can play this.

Helmsly Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 I lvoe that this is being released through steam now. I Shall try and play this tonight.
Cookyman Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 (edited) Wow that was absolutely incredible - I loved the game engine on JC2. Mmmmm 48 player races? yes please! How you gonna top that Rockstar? Edited December 16, 2013 by Cookyman
bob Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 Tried it just now, but even with all the settings turned down i was averaging 7fps.... I cry!
gaggle64 Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 Steam are giving the PC version cheap so I'm just6 going to check how that runs on my laptop that before diving in.
Rummy Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Wish I had a decent enough graphics card to run this bastard. Tempted to still pick it up(£2 til the 19th!) for the vague future possibility I get something that can run it.
bob Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Yeah i'm going to buy a new laptop next year, so I hope people are still playing this a few months down the line.
