*** It would also depend if they have a satellite radio subscription. In the US, SiriusXM, the major satellite radio company, is a subscription service. It's reasonable to assume such a thing would be the same in the FC universe as well.
** Receiving signals and transmitting them are two different things. I used to live in an area where the only route into town was down the side of a mountain into a valley. My SiriusXM and AM/FM radio worked fine, but I could forget about making any phone calls.

* Okay so there's load of crazy contrivances around what bliss can do, allies being idiots and missing obvious clues that the heralds are infiltrating them with brainwashed agents (See: Faith and how complacent the sheriff is about the marshall wandering free with a weapon, and this complaint about Jacob's ManchurianAgent shenanigans with the player character) and such, but Jacob's brainwashing you to kill Eli really rubs rubs me the wrong way. Firstly, a point is made that the Whitetails are taking efforts to prevent Jacob knowing where the wolf's hatden is. Makes sense and okay, that's the least contrived bit, he either tracked someone there (he does big up his guys being super trackers, even if that's an InformedAttribute outside of the capture parties), or someone cracked. But beyond that, his conditioning of the deputy relies on him knowing both the internal layout of the bunker and where the soldiers and Eli himself will always happen to be within it, which are much harder to explain! It can't be the deputy showed him during one of the brainwashing sessions, because if you'd been playing out the conditioning drill for real in the actual bunker the fact that you were being conditioned would be even more blatant than it already was...

[[folder: Terror Attacks? Really?]]
* If these radio broadcasts are true- and that’s already a big stretch- then apparently what causes humanity to destroy itself boils down to terror attacks. How? How do terror attacks cause all this? The highest confirmed casualty of these reports- if we don’t count that one about the South American virus outbreak- is 19. Meanwhile, blowing up Moscow causes causalities in the millions. And don’t say the terrorists had a nuke- terrorists don’t know how to make nukes and there would be a higher response if any of them got one. How in God's name do minor, inconsequential terror attacks cause humanity to devolve into a state where nuking each other is the best option?

The appearance of a director working on "Blood Dragon 3" seems to imply that ''Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon'' was an in-universe movie and presumably a fictional story even within the ''Far Cry'' world. So how was Takkar able to find a Blood Dragon skeleton and eggs during the ''stone age'' in VideoGame/FarCryPrimal?
