Far Cry 3

[Lieutenant Dan]

OK, I know I'm late to the party on this game, but damn... I'm so glad I'm here now. This game just flat out rocks. Didn't get as far as I had planned last night, but I've got the whole weekend.

I've killed my first boars, collected some flowers, crafted my first few items, and took over my first outpost. I went to bed early this morning with this game on my mind. Now I've had a few hours sleep, and I'm ready to resume my assault on the island.

"Wolf Den this is Lone Wolf do you read?"

Say it with me now...."Just one more outpost, just one more radio tower...then I'll stop for the night."

Then three hours later...

Man, you speak the truth. So addicting. lol

Question: What are some good skills to get in the beginning?

I went for health and the take downs. The sliding (press B while sprinting) is helpful. Also the faster crouching movement speed. I also recommend the extended lungs for breathing underwater and the extended syringe times.

Re: Far Cry 3

Picked up the game today (due to the hype here on OS - and I trust in most of you..) ...

Have tomorrow off work, so I wonder how long I'll play before I put it down...I hear it's addicting...

Waiting for the patch to arrive for MLB: The Show before I start a 'chise, so this game should keep my interest until that happens. SKYRIM still has my interest so I'll be going back & forth between this and that...then, there prolly isn't a game I'll pick up until the PS4 drops.

Made it to the other island

Spoiler

Do you only have the wingsuit on for that one mission? I really enjoyed those couple of seconds.

You have it for the rest of the game. Try jumping off one the the radio towers and you can activate it, or any other high ledge. Made getting all the radio towers on that island easier.

These privateers do not **** around, but apparently they are very susceptible to bears.

Spoiler

Came upon the radio/comm base towards the middle of the map. I pull my camera and scope out the place and move up when nobody is looking. I know dogs are close by, but then when I get close I see a bear in a cage. Pop open the cage. The bear just strolls out. I guess there wasn't anybody close enough for him to sniff out so he just kinda of struts over the building. Stretches his legs. Then he manages to find the stairs. I've moved out towards the road behind the wall. Bear gets to the door. "Oh ****, its a bear!" First guy goes down. Two guys run around from the front of the building. Meanwhile I move over towards a break in the wall and take out the sniper and his buddy so the bear can go to town on the rest.

Base taken.

So, this is real?


Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon gets three retro-styled tracks on Soundcloud

Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, a retro-inspired title teased by Ubisoft on April Fools' Day, now features a three-track, '80s styled soundtrack from Melbourne electronica group Power Glove.

All three tracks can be streamed for free on SoundCloud, where you can check out the dulcet electronic tones of titles "Power Core," "Sloan's Assault" and "Warzone".

Despite the suggestion of it being merely an April Fools' joke, Far Cry: Blood Dragon was first leaked earlier in the year on a Brazilian classification board and listed for release on Windows PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Re: Far Cry 3

It's almost like they asked Volition to make a Far Cry game. Interested in seeing what it turns out to be.

Re: Far Cry 3

Far Cry® 3 Blood Dragon is THE Kick-*** Cyber Shooter taking place on a bizarre open-world island crawling with evil. Welcome to an 80’s VHS vision of the future. The year is 2007 and you are Sargent Rex Colt, a Mark IV Cyber Commando who’s fighting against a cyborg army gone rogue. Your mission: get the girl, kill the baddies, and save the world. Experience every cliché of a VHS era vision of a nuclear future, where cyborgs, blood dragons, mutants, and Michael Biehn (Terminator, Aliens, Navy Seals) collide. Playing Far Cry® 3 Blood Dragon doesn't require a copy of Far Cry® 3.

Re: Far Cry 3

So...when I'm stalking/scouting an enemy base I could expect a random Tyrannosaurus Rex attack with lasers shooting out of its eyes? I don't need FC3 and it's a standalone? I'm SOLD!
