That is a pretty good strategy if you want nobody to know what you're up to ever.
And Vow as much as I do love bows in Skyrim and Oblivion, the way dudes crumple in this game when you hit them is way more satisfying to me than the ridiculous ragdoll skyrockets they become in Bethesda Games.

it mostly bugs me that the bow is only truly silent on headshots
I switched it out for a sniper rifle and never looked back
I assumed it would be of some benefit on hunts, like it does more damage to animals or something
nope
no reason to ever use anything besides a gun unless they're forcing you to

I found other than like, a shotgun (which has limited utility otherwise) or one of the magnums (which really aren't much better at range than the shotguns) it was much easier to put out a lot of high damage shots quickly with the bow than anything else.
Also the only reason you should ever need to use a bow is that they are letting you use a bow.

Really though to each his own and it's rad that this game accommodates so many playstyles.

in the time it takes me to fire the three or four necessary arrows to kill, say, a tiger, I can do the job with half a magazine from an MP5, reload, nail two broads, have a cigarette, make them breakfast, drive them home to their shantytown, and upload pictures from each of those events to instagram
I just liberated the last outpost I had left on the Northern Island. It was relatively flat all around so I decided I'd just bro up and go in guns-a-blazin'. Someone tripped an alarm, no biggie, right?
You'll never guess what showed up!
For serious, don't read this if you want an awesome surprise
Fucking Attack Chopper!!!
This game.

Yeah I liked the bow a lot at first kinda taking Patrick Klepek's stance on it, but it's really hard to score headshots and generally just isn't as satisfying anymore as the sniper rifle for long range stuff, and regular takedowns for short range stuff.
I'm liking the stealth stuff in this game, specifically no-detection base clears. Tons of xp and some definite satisfaction. The lack of a quick save sometimes sucks a lot when I lose 20 minutes of painstaking takedowns, but it also makes a perfect clear that much more awesome.
I keep doing side stuff and after every side mission Jason is like "I'll play ball if it gets me closer to my friends. Maybe Dennis knows more about Hoyt" and then he calls Dennis and they have a long conversation.
Every time I do a radio tower or outpost or supply drop or anything
Yeah complaining about UI stuff is nothing compared to replaying the start of a mission conversation every time you die/reload after beginning it. Forever.

Good job, game, I'll progress the story
For me, it was
(end of Buck's missions, about halfway through)
"You're not here!"
"Not this time, mate. Did you find it? The knife? The tomb?"
"Yeah, I have the knife."
"Meet me at my place!"

So does that thing turn back into a regular XBOX or is that a permanent mod
That's the future of modern warfare, I guess. Which apparently looks like it was made to bludgeon enemies to death. So, yeah, a lot like the original XBOX.
The best/worst part is the designation it was given, which is a clear example of acronym torture. It's called the personnel halting and stimulation response rifle. Or PHASR for short.

That magnum that you get from the Wal-Mart edition of this game?
I'm pretty sure it kills everything in one hit.
Because it seems like every open world game has poker and then ties an Achievement to it
This may be your worst opinion yet.
How many of the assaulter enemies have you shot with it as they're running right at them.
So good.
Also how have you never learned the rules to poker?
Aren't you like my age and a half?
I learned it from Poker Night at the Inventory.

I missed the customary poker game on my eighteenth birthday
And I don't know
I guess Skyrim has spoiled me on how cool you can feel with a bow
The sniper rifles in this are amazing though
I did manage to once get a fantastic hand and win a huge pot in a 360 arcade game.
But that was dumb luck since I didn't even know what fold meant.

I just kept hitting raise by 5 I think.

This game.
Why would this bug you? A dude is sure as heck gonna scream and alert folks if he's got an arrow in his side
Or just bitch and moan to random passers-by for years if you hit him in the knee.
Durable stuff like bears may take 3-4
Running around as I slice goats with my upgraded knife and unloading on bears has broken my fear of the jungle.
This is awesome.

I can usually get to the target unseen, but then everyone sees me after I murder him, so then I just fast travel
feels kinda cheap but I'm not messing with a heavy if I can help it
I like killing all the guy's buddies first then flanking him for the stabby-stab.

That's disappointing. There are lasers that make people blind but don't burn them though?
That would probably be silent, and/or a war crime of some sort.

no see what you want to do, is you take out all of his friends and then walk up and shank him once and run
he'll freak the hell out, shooting randomly, huckin' grenades, then you sneak up on him and stab him

literally a federal offense to point a laser pointer at a plane

Yeah, and checking it out, "dazzler" lasers are not uncommon and are used by lots of countries, but are a war crime if used to permanently blind.
