    I understand, at least for me it would serve as an incentive to play MP. Because w/ no achievements and none of my friends playing MP there's no reason for me to play.

      So why do something you don't want to do? I understand its for the achievements/trophies. But wouldn't it be easier to not have them or have them separately?

        Really liking MP isn't enough incentive to play?

        This is the one reason I dislike the invention of trophies/achievements. For some people enjoyment isn't enough anymore, they need to get a "reward" for playing now.

        Not bashing ya JBH, I fall into the same trap sometimes. I've got a buddy that just recently started playing FC3 and asked if I wanted to Co-op with him. I've got the platinum already but hell ya I'm gonna play because it's fun. Now if only the mics would work better....

          Yeah that is the bad part about the whole trophy thing. But I fall under the same umbrella. The minute the platinum pops, this game will be shelved.

            I enjoyed my time spent playing, simply I would invest more time if there were MP achievements.

            Well.....every game I own I enjoy...playing them sometimes then depends on which game I still need to unlock achievements for. Achievemwnts enhance the experience IMO, and give me something I can be proud of lol.

                Finally got to Citra... is it weird for me to wonder what she might be like in the sack? lol

                Spent over an hour playing poker last night, it was so much fun, got the achievement too!

                  I think it'd be weird NOT to wonder what Citra would be like in the sack. If it doesn't cross your mind, you may need to check your man card. It might be expired.

                    what are some fun ways to liberate the bases? i've done a little over half of them and i'm getting pretty bored of sniping from afar or just going balls to the wall, guns a blazing. i've done a couple just sneaking around, throwing rocks and taking people down but i don't have the patience for that.

                      I'm thinking about setting traps with mines and C4. Or maybe just set it on fire with a flame thrower. But I agree, it gets boring after a while.

                      Also, I should have done all the South Island outposts before I finished the game. Grrrrr. It's actually pretty difficult now

                        ???

                        I never got bored with outposts.

                        --If you want a challenge, knife everyone with takedowns without being detected, using rocks to lure them or distract them so you can isolate guards.

                        --Try some flaming or explosive arrows.

                        --Free the caged animals in some camps by shooting at the cage, then watch the fun. Especially if you set explosives. Or, use the distraction of the animal to storm the base and take out the dudes.

                        --Load up a vehicle with C4 away from the camp, drive it in, jump out while it's rolling and KABOOM.

                        There's LOTS of ways to have fun with outposts

                            Is anyone else having problems connecting to multiplayer ? I get to the loading screen for the match, but it just stays there

                              Especially like the C4 in the car/rolling bomb idea, I just picked up the flamethrower though and am about to start charging through outposts w/ that weapon and unlock the achievement as well.

                                Another fun thing is to hit and run to alert the guards to you, run for the tall grass, they follow and you can have a Goon-B-Que with the flamethrower.
