I'm taking it slow; each time I load a game, I try a different mod. I've mostly been checking out the skins; love using the Alexander Mirikov one, which is an actual skin from the game. There's only a few of the custom skin jobs that are any good; Deadpool comes to mind. I'll be trying Chuck Norris and The Punisher next. It's awesome how most of these skins seem to fit in perfectly with the type of game Just Cause 2 has turned out to be. Rambo, Duke Nukem, Batman, James Bond, Solid Snake. None of them really feel out of place on Panau. Wait...never mind the guns, but Batman with a rocket launcher? Thumbs up.
I haven't seen the multiple tether mod, is it on the Just Cause Mods site? I've tried the More Resistant Grappling mod, but it doesn't seem to make much difference. The mods that clearly disclose their 'cheat status', I'll only try out once I'm much futher in the game, but before I JC2 overdose. Hopefully I'll only reach that point once Just Cause 3 is released. Apparently Avalanche is working on another (undisclosed) AAA title for next-gen gaming hardware, expected 2014.
I'm also using No Camera Auto Centering (sorely needed), No Cutscene Blackmarket (I've had my fill of Sheldon, thank you very much), Realistic Looking Bullets (which I promptly uninstalled - WHO'S SHOOTING AT ME!? CAN'T SEE THEM DAMN REALISTIC BULLETS!) and the Nude Patch (anticlimactic).
Can't get the All JC2 DLC pack to work though. Any ideas?
