Far Cry 4

Yuma is dead, all but two of the outposts are liberated, and Longinus has left me.

I'll miss him a lot actually. Maybe it's just because I really enjoyed and overanalyzed Far Cry 2 but he really pulled on my heartstrings.

I think the chick outside Shanath knows why I frequent it, lol. She's called me on it a few times. Finally hit rank 10, though.

Just one-shot a heavy through a wall with the 50 caliber sniper rifle you get at the end of the Longinus quest line. So satisfying.

Finished the game. Somewhat disappointed by the lack of payoff for the various decisions you make. I ended up shooting Ming dead in the end, which results in nothing being resolved it seems. I went back and started a new game to see the secret ending. I have to admit I didn’t see that coming. Lakshmana being a person and not a place hadn’t occurred to me. Does that mean that if you accept Min’s offer to sit down and eat at the end of the game after you’ve stormed his castle, you get an ending similar to the secret ending?

If you accept his offer, he reveals that he'd intended to give you Kyrat the whole time and then takes you out back to the shrine with Lakshmana's ashes. Then he leaves in a helicopter while shouting about how what comes next is up to.

Not gonna lie, it's not really anymore climactic than the other endings.

Ah I see, thanks for the info. Regardless of the ending, still a fun game.

I far prefer the let Pagan Min bugger off in his little helicopter ending to the main two that you are supposed to choose between. I just wish there was a way to tell the Kyrati Royal Army that I am their boss now and that they should stop shooting at me and I will help skull hump the Golden Path with them. No one kills my sister and gets away with it, goddammit!

Man...that would be freakin' awesome.

After one of the Hunt Survival missions. "All this leopard print and blood. It looks like someone massacred New Jersey." ROFL

Finally got around to beating this game.

I killed Amita and let Pagan escape. I'm still desperately wishing for there to have been an option where you team up with Pagan and kill Sabal. Or to properly take the country for yourself.

You can shoot both just whoever you don't kill initially doesn't seem to matter other then that they are dead.

Just booted this up again after a two-month or so gap in play, after sitting through what was an interminably long update cycle for it, and I had to stop after about five minutes of play.

The game looks absolutely shit now, runs like a dog with two legs, and was nowhere near as good as what I had before either on this graphics card which is a Radeon HD 6970 or on my Radeon HD 6870 which I previously used.

I couldn't believe it.

Odd. I have it on console so thankfully I don't have that issue.

Anyone heard anything on the Yeti bit of DLC?

The Valley of the Yetis dlc? I think that one is already out. Ooops. No it's not. According to the season pass page, which is frankly broken on the Opera browser or I would link it, it's "coming soon".

Just wanna check something: Does the "Kill Yuma" mission fake a system crash? Screen goes black, you think the PS 4 has crashed?

Think so, though I'm not sure. It's been a while.

On a less directly related to the game note, the Canadian Red Cross is doing an appeal for the Nepal earthquake relief effort, and the game's developers are matching donations up until 100000 dollars. Just in case you may be interested, here's the details:

I wish it was possible to reach the mountains in normal gameplay, not just in specific missions.

So after sinking the last two days (and unlocking all the bell towers and all the outposts) into this game I discover that the vehicle take down skill is bugged and cannot be unlocked. The one that is apparently required for a later mission. The one that is blocking off the chain takedown skill that actually want. Fucking game.

The nets been no help either so I'm wondering if there is a mod or trainer out there that unlocks all the skills or something similar?

No idea. It works for me on the PS 4.

Man, that U-play rewards pistol is amaaazing. It's as powerful as some of the SM Gs in the game, and uses the much cheaper, much more plentiful pistol ammo. Not to mention, it's silencer is nearly perfect. It basically lets me get away with carrying three highly specialized but not very useful outside of stealth weapons I couldn't otherwise.

I have my burst pistol, my mini-nade launcher, my bow, and my sniper. I feel like a god.

I love the bow but I can't wait for the crossbow. Explosive and fire arrows be damned.

autocross never did it for me. Way too often I'd peg someone, only to have it fail to kill them and they'd turn around and spot me instantly. Silenced Sniper, bow, and that's all the stealth I need.
