Good man!
The game looks such good fun.
When I get the game I'll try and catapult an NPC high in the air, hook shot & wing suit myself after him and tether him to a passing aircraft.
Then I'll blow the aircraft up!

Ah, someone that hates OPTIONAL coop.
Not everyone enjoys playing such a big sandbox game alone nowadays.
Coop would do wonders to this IMO. With Coop i would buy it day one.
Shitting. Yes. Thanks for this.
If this is still cheap by payday, the day before official release, I am in.
It has a lot of underground areas, too, apparently, so the surface-size may be misleading.
I've got a vibe they might DLC it in.
Co-op is just too in-demand for this series.

I definitely would like to see online coop patched in later.

Is that from a PS4 stream? (the GIF)
Yes, it is quick and dirty. It looks and runs much better.

Like most games, I imagine it will be hard to know that tiull it is in the wild and examined by more thorough GAFers or outlets.
You may wanna consider that pre-order.

It is indeed beautiful. Flying in the wingsuit over the ocean with all of that amazing ambient music is going to be such a joy. I have seen enough to know that this will likely stand with The Witcher 3 as my GOTY. For it's own reasons not including the story, of course. Just in terms of the world and pure fun. The game looks astounding.

Yes, you could also turn all the HUD off or leave the reticle on only or all the HUD. No mini map option though.
The game deserves the hype. I believe it is going to be even better than I already thought it would be.

Also, there isn't any day 1 updates as of right now so maybe there will be and that could iron out the issues whatever console may have. The graphics are alright but they are certainly not the selling point of this game, it kind of looks rough in spots but it's a very colorful, vivid looking game which is perfect because that's how JC always was.
As of right now, it's a solid 30FPS on Xbox One unless there is a massive explosion involving physics stuff. I did a few short vids in the previous page, shame I don't have a capture device but I worked with what I had haha.

Same here, I put countless hours in JC2 on PS3 and then rebought it on PC later when I had a new rig. I plan to do the same here, play tons on PS4 and then rebuy it later when I get a new PC.

MP in Just Cause has to be the MP mod from JC2. The one where you can completely break the game.
The guys that made that mod were already brought in around E3-time in Avalanche to look at the tech and the new game, in case they were interested in remaking that mod. Unfortunately, that is not a mode they can implement officially into the game (as it is busted and broken beyond anything else). And I don't think people want a basic MP mode like every other game out there (breaking the game was most of the fun in JC2's).
If those guys are interested in remaking the mod (which they probably are, since they already visited Avalanche), then MP will come after release.
I think that the game looks absolutely gorgeous even from all of the compressed footage I have been watching. I am not sweating some softer textures and such due to the size and beauty on the whole. I'm good.

Having played the PS4 version, I don't like when the frame rate dips, and it happens a lot when there are big explosions. On the other hand, there is no day 1 patch yet so it is entirely possible that they optimized it in the day 1 patch. The frame rate dips don't impact the experience but they sure are noticeable.
I also noticed that the frame rate dipped when we destroyed a big bridge, which looks like procedural destruction. There is also object based motion blur in the game which can be clearly seen when driving around in vehicles.
The game looks fantastic, however PS4 version suffers with shimmering and jaggies.

There's a day one patch on... day one.
IDK about the first question but we have definitely already seen animals
There is a video with a deer getting tethered and another with a cow with rocket C4 on it.
Totally missed this post. Thanks! Game looks good on XB1. Can't wait to pick it up.

Thanks for the reply, have pre-ordered on Xbox One, loved how they were implemented in Watchdogs, so it is the deciding factor for me.

Even if the MP mod does come, it wouldn't be coming to consoles. It was incredibly broken on PC, but a shit ton of fun. It was like giving a 1000 people god powers and saying, GO! It was a lot of fun, but pretty broken all around. The airport was just tiny toons adventures levels of wackiness.
Yeah, even from his phone footage I can tell that the game looks and runs great. The fire and smoke looks especially brilliant.

Man im hoping they will already sell the game on Friday (germany) like fallout 4.
Back in the days I traveled to a friend just because the jc2 demo came out and I didn't had a Internet connection at that time. I brought my Xbox over so I could load the demo on it.
Played it 24/7.
I also liked the first one for what it was.

Avalanche just uploaded the first hour themselves. Dat intro music.

They were not unfair. It was repetitive and tedious. Everything you did was slow. You couldn't just do something. You had to hold the button. For everything.
You couldn't just capture the balloon things. you had to slowly fill them up, slowly ascend, slowly descend.
You couldn't even jump from mission to mission to see the story because the game forced you to do silly sidestuff.
And then you had to drive around in your piece of junk car that broke down every few seconds.
I just gave up after 10 hours. I mean that's still a long time. But in these hours I was mostly just trying to find the fun in the game.
At least in Asscreed Arkham Mordor Light you are able to climb stuff which is exciting. Also the combat in these games is more fun.
Just Cause 3 let's you do whatever you want and gives you many, many tools to do whatever you want.
That already guarantees that it will get better scores than Mad max.
The only thing i really liked from Mad Max was the engine. Rock Solid 60fps in every situation

I'm doing the excited dance over here. It looks a lot like the pee pee dance, but there's GOTF involved.
LOL, yep. While thankfully not taking itself seriously at all, the story does seem like it is also going to be a lot more enjoyable. It is an obvious improvement right off the bat.

yeah...I watched about half of the video and really liked what I saw
lot of funny lines there (like the news announcer..."I'm, apparently, the new voice of the General's News Network...")
Oh really? Since when? Where did you get that info? I cannot phantom a game that wants me to explore everything on my own looks at skyrim,fallout 3/4 oh wait there are a bunch of them exploring on your own and do what the hell you want. Avalanche always invested in great big singleplayer sandbox see mad max,see just cause 1 and 2. You need to get that temper a bit down buddy because it is like everything you want others don't want.
I don't mind coop but for this game it is never needed.
I hope to see BOLOOO SANTOSI make an appearance.
