The buckodile scared the hell out of me, but it does teach you how best to take care of crocs: jump on their head. Is there any use for the albino crocodile's skin or is that just for sale? I didn't even think to look at it since I'd already maxed everything out, but you never know.

For some reason google doesn't feel like letting me search this thread today. Anyways, sorry if this has been definitively answered but I'm having huge trouble with the save system. Basically, Anytime I leave the game alt-tabbed longer than 10 minutes, it crashes. Upon starting it again, all my savedgames are gone. Worse, the saved games are still there: In C:\ProgramData\Orbit\46 and C:\Users\All Users\Orbit\46 But they are no longer recognized by the game, for some reason. At first I assumed the game was just being dumb and deleting the saves when it crashed (stupid, but at least easily fixable by simply moving them elsewhere) but this current problem is truly unmanageable. Is there any way I can fix this?

I know it's a weird thing to think about, but when you start the game and hit "continue", the screenshot there that I guess corresponds to the chapter of the story you are on often has a character that hasn't been introduced in the game yet.

Cardboard Box posted:Not drastically, but it's a lot less tedious to play. It makes malaria a much less frequent problem, weapons last longer, enemies are less bullet spongy, the chance that enemies at checkpoints will attack you is cut in half, amongst other alterations. If you didn't enjoy Far Cry 2 at all, you still won't with that mod. The fundamental flaws are still there. My solution to Far cry 2 - Permanent God Mode. Then the hardest difficulty, just as an additional 'gently caress you' to the game. On top of that, When buses weren't enough I used the 'playback' exploit to run the game at 3X or 4X speed - for some reason, recording playback in FC2 increased the gamespeed insanely, maybe because I have a fast CPU or something... Very convenient for making cars and boats not be rear end-slow. Favorite highway were the railroads, because they were straight the whole time. drat those jungle roads require fast reaction times when you are playing the game at 4X speed...

In fact, I STILL love that Michael Mando looks just like Vaas even without the getup. I don't know why I find it so funny but if he wanted to he could literally become the character and go nuts and hire some pirates to gently caress up islands with him by just being him.

Is there something special about some places on the map that draws pirates like a magnet? I'm trying to hunt tapirs in an area just south of the village, which is supposedly clear of pirate influence, and yet pirates won't stop showing up, they are just POURING in from both directions of the road. I've never done this much continuous combat in this game yet, even in the reddest areas of the map. What's going on? edit: even going back there like half an hour later after doing other things, it's still that way. Are there secret pirate rendezvous points that aren't on the map or anything?

I'd happily remove object blinking if there weren't so few drops in the world., specifically ammo drops. It sucks that I have to rely on the market for bullets, considering there's so many armed people around, friend and foe alike. That's actually one thing I missed about FC2 (I hate being the "past game was better, because..." guy) was that you had a small suite of resources waiting at you at each house you had. Not saying that every fast travel point should have a crate of free ammo, but at least a clip's worth resting on a table would be a nice touch on your way out. Makes you feel like you earned your next few kills. Edit: vvv I can easily see where the game got less immersive, because a lot of people had grievances with the fact that it was "too hard": Everything trying to kill you, a poor fast travel system, etc etc. Now for the sake of accessibility, you can fast travel all the time and can wipe the islands of everything except wild life. But now everyone's using everything in their power and calling the game too easy ("Why can I use my ultra powered sniper rifle from out of everyone's detection range and still get an undetected bonus?! Why don't they know where I'm throwing rocks from?!   >")Personally, removing most of the HUD and having enemies drop a few more bullets/shells would be perfect immersion for me. There is literally nothing I would love more than to run around the beautiful world and mow down goons with the excellent gunplay. But even when I try, the game stops me hardcore. Everyone has ARs: no one uses a pistol and only hand-placed snipers have SMGs. There's the occasional charger with 3 spare shells, even though just about everyone has a shotgun shell bandolier... I want to live and survive off the dropped guns and rounds of my enemies, but Ubi made that pretty much unfeasible. Shame. Oh well. Shooting dudes doesn't get old

Morter posted:That's actually one thing I missed about FC2 (I hate being the "past game was better, because..." guy) Don't feel bad, because there were some things that Far Cry 2 did better. It was much more immersive, the survival element was a lot stronger, the health system was better. I think Far Cry 3 is an overall better and much more enjoyable game, but a lot of the stuff omitted from Far Cry 2 is definitely curious.

Argh, my stupid game is broken: After days of screwing around on the island, I start moving through some of the story: I get to "saving oliver" and the stupid thing won't trigger. I don't get the count-down timer or even have a dot on the map to go to. I watched a walk-through of part of it so I know you need to get to a vantage point a snipe, but nothing starts the sequence Has anyone else had this problem? Should I have not cleared out the closest camp? All my Rakyet bros are cruising around the mission area now.

This tapir problem is really bothering me. There's only one tapir area in all the places I have radio towers up for (which is odd since they are not endangered, meanwhile there are like six places each I can go to kill tigers or cassowaries or komodo dragons), and like I said before, it's swarming with an endless stream of murderous pirates all the time for no reason I can understand. I'm stuck with only a ten arrow capacity and the bow is all I want to use.
