This is why I game on a console. It's always something and I don't have time for it.TheBez said:
I'm hoping somebody can help me.
I've tried to play the game again, but every time the beginning intro finishes and it's about to load the game, it just hard-locks my PC with a black loading screen, and there's no option but to reboot? Is there any way to fix this? Everything I've found so far refers to Nvidia problems from months ago.

Nah, I wasn't trying to be like that. I wouldn't mind playing on a PC, but there's always something going wrong. I just like the worry free consoles. I'll get into PC gaming someday though.cabot said:

My super long distance grapple and first person view mods make the game double fun! And it runs perfectly @1920x1200 w 2xAA on my Athlon X2 @2.6GHz and 8800GTX from 2007. Just like every other game.

I hated this game at first, the first two missions are probably the worst opening to a game in recent memory, they don't even give any hints of what is possible in the game (vehicles in particular).
I'm playing through this game for the second time now, this time through OnLive. My God...I hate the city areas in this game. I'm stuck at 97% in one of them, and I've been gliding around for hours in search of what I expect to be a gas station that has yet to be destroyed. If there's a Just Cause 3, then I pray that it doesn't contain areas like this.
Salaadin said:
I remember that happening the first time that I played. I'm in the Residential District right now, where I'm pretty sure that each item *is* worth less than 1%. That's why I'm pretty sure that I'm missing a gas station, because there's no way that I'm missing this many individual items.
EDIT: D'oh. I missed one of the outlying areas with a statue, two drops and a propaganda trailer.

How far is that one into the game? I finally picked it up used (near impossible to find) and am gung-ho'ing it right now. Last year I spent about 30 hours on the demo (kept glitching out of the time limit), and am in heaven.
I'll try the Oil Rig on my 60GB PS3 and see if it freezes here too.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS !!!!
I can't make new threads. Can someone please post this for me.
Just Cause 3 in development - report
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-10-26-just-cause-3-in-development-report
Work on a third installment in Avalanche Studios' Just Cause series is underway, with the finished game due out some time next year, so says Xbox World magazine sources. As reported by CVG, a note in the UK publication's news section reads: "Our spies say devs Avalanche are hard at work as we speak, and that it's set for release next year."
Publisher Sega has so far declined to comment but, if true, a sequel wouldn't come as much of a surprise.
Earlier this year, series creator Christofer Sundberg told Eurogamer that the developer was working on two "huge" titles for release in 2013.
"I can't see that Avalanche wouldn't want to continue on the Just Cause series," added senior producer Andreas Thorsén said. "We love that franchise."
The last entry in the open world action series arrived on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2010, winning an 8/10 from Eurogamer. Check out our Just Cause 2 review for details.
Since then the Swedish developer has released excellent downloadable twin stick shooter Renegade Ops and opened a New York office to work on an unannounced next-gen project.

So, after searching forever to find a used copy I got one a couple months ago. Now @ 70 hrs @ 56% complete. In Merc mode now, just need to finish those damn villages and a couple of Faction missions, and 3 more trophies before Platinum.
Anyone plat it for the PS3?
(Oh, further to my previous post -- no Oil Rigs froze for me...)

I hope Just Cause 3 allows for at least a 3-point grapple. More would be even better. (Like the Bolo mod for the PC apparently...)

This trainer should help, I don't know what mods to use. There probably are some on the site the trainer is on.

Just a heads up 2.49 today at Amazon and can be activated on Steam.
Awesome game, beautiful graphics, high reply value. Don't waste any more time.

LOVE THIS GAME.
I just started playing it again. I'm 68% through, just going from settlement to settlement completing them. I'm on 360 and I think the graphics are gorgeous, can't imagine what it must look like on PC.

BRIDGE OF DEATH. So hard. Impossible even. Ugh. Flying planes through tight spaces is where this game is just bollocks, frankly.

I did this recently too. Added like another 12 hours or so of play time. It gets really addicting to clear all the settlements. I really like getting the airports discovered so that I can grab a good plane from any region on the map.

Has it been patched so that these commandline options don't work anymore (Steam launch options) ?

n = number (integer)Same here, I picked it up again last week after almost two years and I am now at 68% in Mercenary. It actually looks like I'm going to hit 75%, and the game's still as fun as ever (especially traversal, gunplay not so much). I'm going for a mix of faction items, killing colonels, challenges and completing locations. It's a slow crawl, but I go and shoot up an oil rig when I'm feeling antsy! I'm not sure I'll go for the hardcore playthrough straight away, though...

Goddamn. This game. THIS FUCKING GAME. Nearly 80 hours in and it's STILL blowing my mind.
So I was working on clearing a settlement. However, things went bad and I found myself in a tight spot. Low health, enemies swarming me, you know, the usual. I happened to notice one of those race challenge icons not too far from where I was. I thought I remembered that starting a race challenge cleared your heat. I started the challenge, and quickly found out that I was mistaken. But I figured, what the hell, why not? So, long story short, I did the entire challenge with a heat level. First car got blown up, so I hopped on a military motorcycle and continued on. Well, I wrecked that one not far from the finish (barely survived the explosion, too), so I hopped in a civilian truck to finish up the challenge. However, by this point I was surrounded by enemies firing away at me. I just barely made it to the finish, and my truck was on fire.
That's right, I drove a flaming truck through the finish line.
Holy fucking shit.
I wish I'd had the foresight to start recording when I started the challenge. But I didn't, so the last 30 seconds will have to do:

EDIT: Just hit 75%, finally!

Hah, awesome. Reminds me of some of my crazier moments in GTA: San Andreas. Reminds me of the last tanker truck mission, which involves driving across the entire map in a fragile, easily-disconnected tanker truck with a 4-star wanted level all the way.

does anyone know if you can take a 360 save and use it on PC like you can with skyrim saves?
thinking of picking this up on my PC and messing with some mods, but i'm not real keen on the idea of losing all my progress from my 360 save.
