I really like the way the upgradation system is integrated with the gameplay.
You really need to upgrade to progress properly.

This is where a game like AC3 failed miserably since the upgrades and side missions had no real incentive.
And you could complete the whole game without any real need to upgrade anything.

And the best part as usual is the handling of the guns.
After a long time a shooter with a good campaign that can differentiate itself from other generic ones.

Also here the hunting and crafting is not something you do for leisure fun, it's actually required to survive.
 
The second part of island is where the game shines the enemies are tough compared to other island and unless you are upgrading your skills its difficult to survive there

Amen to that! Reached that part yesterday and a whole new bunch of equipment got unlocked in the inventory with some kick ass assault rifles and SMGs! :ohyeah:

Even the privateers in this part is a notch harder than the crappy pirates and will chase Brody over farther distances on foot or vehicle. Unfortunately, I don't have much cash left to buy sufficient upgrades. Just some 2000 USD and a decent assault rifle plus a couple of upgrades would set me back by at least 2.5k!

I was sprinting my way through the forest and a couple of leopards chased me and almost killed me! I had an LMG and used it to my advantage before it ran out of ammo.

kestrel5915: Done! Check and send it over. :P

Accepted :) ...
Money doesnt seem to a big problem for me. My wallet is only 2k right now. So its mostly full. I am using the silenced version of the 3rd assault rifle along with a scope, silenced pistol, sniper and a bow.
Love the bow, esp how u can get back the ammo from the killed animals and enemies :). Most of the low level enemies are one shot kills :). Hope i can finish most of the game this week. Might have to travel from next week
 
Money ain't no problem in this game. I had to upgrade my wallet thrice before meeting Chitra. Plus I've spare skill points because the game doesn't unlock all the upgrades brfore finishing missions. :D
 
Just finished the SP campaign. It was ****ing awesome.
It's definitely the best game I have played this year.
 
Till now I was just sneaking my way through until I got a taste of the fire.

Cleared out a post using flamethrower and molotovs and it was frigging awesome playing and watching everything burn.

Exploded a barrel with a flame arrow and two turret jeeps were gone as well.
 
Guys while you are at it, don't forget - you can still shoot those weapon crates like in Far Cry 2! It goes all boom boom killing anyone in the vicinity and setting the nearby foliage on fire! :P

And yeah, it's pretty cool the way Jason heals him when he's driving a vehicle - he takes the bullet off the arm with his mouth and spits it out! Pretty cool stuff I say.

Yeah, the first time it happened I was like :1ign22:
 
Yeah likewise, still getting corrupted textures now and then and game crashes to desktop. But much more stable than before.

Man, this game is good!

So far I've been snake bitten, Leopard pawed and Komodo Dragoned in 100 minutes.
 
Done and dusted! :D

Chose to rescue my friends and leave the god damn island for good! But I think Jason could retain the tatoos! :D
 
The game is damn addictive after so many years i am playing a game which really keeps you glued to your seat.But really ubisoft crapped this too with a poor port.But the game looks beautiful.:yes:

The game works twice as well with a game pad on a PC. Just makes so much more sense. Really enjoying. Well done Ubisoft.
