Really disappointed that I waited until it came out to finally cave and buy the damn thing, because the music really has blown me away far more than I expected. I didn't know it would be so John Carpenter-y. Why did no one tell me it would be John Carpenter-y?!
Oh ye gods, the dialogue at the end of the "Punch It" mission - absolutely hilarious. I love Grey Delisle so much. She's one of my favorite voice actresses.
this save system is wonky as fuck. i'm pretty sure i just lost like 30 minutes of game time here... i think its something to do with this uplay cloud sync bullshit. why cant they just use steamworks? fucking weird system.
also just killed my first blood dragon through sweet, tears and grenades. and then another one of those fuckers turns up, shooting lazers and killing me outright.

Man, I may not be able to hardly touch this game right now, but I spend practically half the time with a stupid grin plastered to my face, and the other half busting out laughing over a wide variety of fuck-awesome things. Even the load-screen hints are awesome.
"Sniper rifles... close-range weapons for when you accidentally select the wrong gun."
It's like this game was built directly out of pieces of my brain.
Laser rounds on the fazertron make all the difference in the world.
Finished up all the garrisons, hostage and hunter missions. Gonna round up the rest of the tvs, tapes and notes. Then I guess i can start the campaign missions. :P
Everyone has a price. Throw enough gold around and someone will risk disintegration.
Where does one find dogs and snakes? Those are the last two animals I need to kill. I got excited because I thought I killd a neon snake in the ocean, but apparently it was a neon barracuda...
Also, a little advice for anyone just starting out, or having trouble with the weak ass weapons. The absolute first thing you should do is kill the 6 or 9 animals needed for laser rounds on the fazertron. This way you have a versitile leathal weapon. It especially makes the hostage missions much easier. I mean, Shotgun/Sniper Rifle combo works, but there's no in between. Laser round Fazertron gives you that mid-range option.

snakes spawn randomly in the wilderness as youre walking around, and were a total pain in the ass for me to find personally. theres no way to find them aside from luck basically. dogs are in the campaign missions, you cant miss them.
I keep finding those fucking snakes
They all ended up in my game, damn it.
Also, DON'T HOLD OFF PLAYING THE SECOND PLOT MISSION (The one in the DAM), which is the first mission after the intro. It gives you the cyberdogs to kill, and a very special weapon,
I cannot throw the shuriken. I cannot figure out how.
If there's another guy close enough, a "RT" symbol will appear over his head while you'r doing a takedown.
I felt particularly badass last night during a Hostage rescue. It was the one where the hostage was inside the temple ruin. A heavy, and two regular mooks out front, three inside with him. Tossed my D20 to distract a mook and the heavy, rush in and takedown the guy in the doorway. On my way to the hostage, I placed a couple mines in the hallway in case things went sour. Did a chain take down on two of the guys, but missed the shuriken prompt. Had to blow the other guy away with my shotgun. Of course, Mook 1 and his Heavy pal were on the way in, and *BOOM!...BOOM!*, explosive kill x2. Oh yes.
Also, I think it's hilariously awesome that a long range explosive sniper shot is still considered a "stealth kill"

If a head explodes with an explosive sniper shot in the middle of the forest, does it make a sound?
edit: therefore stealth kill?

Taking fall damage out was such a good idea. Even if the fall damage from Far Cry 3 hadn't been insanely high for stupidly short drops, being to just say "fuck it" to heights of all types and try to land on baddies is so much more fun than having to worry about pathetic meat damage.
Also, killing fleeing animals with exploding sniper rounds is way more fun than it should be. Accuracy? Is that near the Mediterranean Sea?
Accura-sea. IT'S A JOKE.

At first I was like "How am I suppose to kill a Blood Dragon? They have so much health."
"I was hoping there'd be some hot island women here. . . You know, with the tribal tattoos, and maybe a 'white savior' complex!"
I love the writing in this game. Especially the FC3 reference in the shotgun's description. You don't need to be a douchey twentysomething trying to save his groady friends to use a shotgun!

I need to thank whoever mentioned that the jump in this game is high enough that you can get the death from above take down like every time. My go to strategy for liberating outposts now is to lower the shield and then jump on everybody during the chaos. I am having so much fun with this.

Snakes are the worst.
PS: That line is perfect for this game.

You need to refill your Kobayashi Cyborg Lubricant.

i wish this game was so much longer. 6h45min and just got 100%. cant complain because it was a totally awesome 7 hours, but I JUST WANT MORE.

The first thing I did was sit at the menu screen for like 5 minutes just listening to the intro with the dumbest grin on my face.
Im doing my part.

Hahaha, yes!
In the main game I always felt that stealth was the way to go so I never used the louder guns much. I feel its kind of better balanced here.

Then I remembered I have a minigun.

felt such a badass not even my boss could get me to do anything, despite being given 36 hours to crack the case.
