Offical Far Cry 3 Thread

I played the co-op over the weekend and it was pretty fun. It's a linear campaign such as the one in L4D, but not bad at all. It's also pretty long. We spent about 2 hours playing it yesterday and only finished 2 of the 6 chapters.
 
I'm leaving the co-op until after I've finished the SP. I'm having way too much fun with the game atm, nothing else interests me. :)
 
So I assume you've done the Path of the Hunter quest then? Is it part of the main story or a side-quest? I want to do it so I can fully upgrade the rest of my gear.

The Path of the hunter are just challenges.To get the rare pelts you need to liberate an outpost and then look for a 'rare'(it's marked in red) animal hunting poster.
 
Ah, that would explain it then. I've only liberated 4 outposts so far, as I prefer to have enemies in the areas I pass through.

I also just upped my difficulty to hard and it's a lot better now. Normal was becoming a bit of a cakewalk.
 
Fire is dangerous but so epic. Some oke was I think throwing a Molotov cocktail at me and I shot it purely by chance and he burst into flames. He then proceeded to try and hack me to death and while I was taking care of other okes I turn around and half the out past was on fire. Was a sight.

Has anyone done the flamethrower mission :p

I am playing it on the hardest difficulty.

Dude that mission was awesome, the Skrillex song actually worked really well there. All the while he's shouting how awesome the flamethrower is. This mission cemented this game as my favourite game this year.

This one. :D

 
Yeah, fire is quite epic in this game. I was fighting a group of people on a "Wanted Dead" mission just now, and a molotov guy threw the building I was in with one. A minute later and the entire building was a death trap.
 
I want to try explosive arrows. I dig the fire arrows. But its time to become rambo :p


Thats how I feel when using the bow :p
 
If the game had a quicksave function I would play on the hardest setting, but as it stands I'd be too frustrated by the checkpoint system because you die bloody fast on the highest setting.
 
You can crank it up any time you want though,warrior difficulty is like normal difficulty in other games.

Will check it out tonight.

Thing is keep you're distance when you can. I am running with sniper rifle and a silenced smg and I think I have died maybe 3 times thanx to a one horned buffalo and a leopard. Its an awesome game though.
 
I run with the Bow, MP5 (Extended Mag + RDS), LMG (RDS) and silenced siper rifle. I prefer to take over camps with the "Undetected" rating since this nets you 3x the XP.

Problem is the story missions are often linear so combat inevitably breaks out and this is when you can get in trouble.

Use cover,i am barely getting shot at as it is.

Probably because i play too many online FPS games.

I do too, but when a molotov gets tossed on your cover there's little choice but to move. Now you're on fire, running to another cover spot while being nailed by gunfire. I've been in so many situations where I made it to a new cover spot with 0.1 health only just being able to recover in time.
 
I'm pretty sure you can shoot the molotov mid air,you aren't running into outposts guns blazing right?

Always kill the chargers first or hit their beer bottles to set fire to a whole outpost.

Yeah same. Sometimes its easy other times everything goes south lol. Maybe they should patch a harder setting :p

And yes you can dc. I have by mistake :p
