It doesn't look too bad...

 

[legacyzero]

So do I have to cancel my VPN account Megasoum? or does it stop automatically? Dont wanna get billed $2 every two days LOL

 

[arts&crafts]

Any free way to unlock in canada? debating whether to spend money on a vpn to unlock. Decisions, decisions.

Hmm...that's a very good question haha. I guess I'll check the site. I think it was only a once thing (I could choose between paying and subscribing when I picked Paypal).

Edit: Yeah it really looks like it's a one time deal. Says it will expire in 2 days and I don't see any subs anywhere.

I'm in Montréal.

those deals are mostly trials so to speak, and don't renew as far as I know. No control panel/ account area ?

Yea but I was wondering if there was a Free way to unlock, but I guess I will just use the website you posted on the last page, its only 2 dollars.

UnpackinnNNNNNnnnNNNnnnGGGGgg

oh shuuut uuuuuup

goddamn i love this game.

 

[Megasoum]

Ah right. I'm sure there's ways to get it for free. Especially now that it's available in Europe (I use the BBC Player for example to watch the BBC and it would probably work too) but the website I posted just makes it a lot easier. It's worth the 2$.

 

[legacyzero]

EDIT: FUCK I get an error, says "failed to contact key server"

 

[Captain Bluey]

Probably going to cop it, but will ask the question anyway: can you use a controller to play this on the PC version?

 

[alr1ght]

This looks fantastic. Unfortunately I'll probably have to play on 360. Does the game have decent deadzones so there's no moving/aiming drift?

 

[Megasoum]

YESSSSSS IT WOOOOOORKED!!

Thanks Megasoum!

Edit: Oh just saw your edit... Hmmm... The uplay servers are probably overloaded? Have you tried with the VPN on?

 

[KyleN]

So after playing for almost 6 hours straight and not even played a single story mission, i can clearly say this is one of my favourite games ever.

And thanks for watching the stream! Many awesome things went down!

 

[Krappadizzle]

Welcome to the other side. Steam releases will never be the same.

Too true. It's a bit strange having to do a VPN unlock. It's a bit dumb, I now know the annoyances that other countries have had to deal with much longer than me.

 

[legacyzero]

Yeah, you have to stay connected to the VPN and THEN run it. SUCCESS!

Game on!

 

[tci]

Please tell me that there is a way to turn off the damn notifications in this game. So annoying. I've turned off the Uplay crap, but there doesn't seem to be any option for the game notifications.

 

[JambiBum]

Does anyone know if you can use a vpn for the ubi store?

I wanna swim with them.

[Dommel]

Awesome game, I can see myself pouring many hours into this one.

This is my issue of late. All these damn notifications are fucking annoying.

please someone figure out how to mod out this ui. I dream eagerly of the days I can tread alone through the wilds with nothing other than my map.

 

[iBuzz7S]

Probably going to cop it, but will ask the question anyway: can you use a controller to play this on the PC version?

Yes. Already confirmed in previous post somewhere in this thread.

 

[Megasoum]

The game is incredible overall but I gotta say, I LOVE the movement and animations. The way you actually feel like you have a body and not just a floating camera. The way the gun moves and raise when you get behind cover. It's amazing.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

So is there a silenced pistol in this game?

 

[Megasoum]

So is there a silenced pistol in this game?

You can buy a silencer for one of the pistol you get early on. They do shit damage tho. I suggest putting a silencer on a better gun if you want stealth.

 

[indigo-cyclops]

So is there a silenced pistol in this game?

yes you have to purchase the silencer. more weapons may unlock alongside the first 3.

 

[DTKT]

Man, the HUD looks so obnoxious. I hope some awesome PC modder is going to mod the hell out of that.

The worst thing is that the items queue up. So if I want to exit the game, each time I click Esc a new item opens and I have to close it.

Head shots?

 

[Megasoum]

Head shots?

Yeah probably. Haven't really played with the pistols. I equiped an assault riffle as soon as possible. Put a red dot and slapped a SICK camo paint on it lol.

 

[NoirVisage]

I thought the EXACT same thing >__<

Ugh yes that is so obnoxious.

 

[Ken]

I want to buy this because "Skyrim on a tropical island" sounds amazing but I think I'm bored of FPS games. How much "adventure" in this is there versus shooting stuff.

 

[legacyzero]

Ultra settings with no MSAA. Downsampling from 2048x1152

 

[Salsa]

need to step on the gas and finish Hitman

 

[Megasoum]

I gotta try Downsampling at some point.

 

[Gozer the Gozerian]

I'm glad they kept the "pulling things out of you" animations for when you are wounded.

It was funny in FC2 because they were either glitchy or randomized, I would hurt myself from falling off a cliff and respond by pulling a bullet out of my arm, lol.

 

[shinobi602]

So how's the overall performance in the 360 version guys?

 

[legacyzero]

It cleans things up nice. Makes for great shots. My PC is being an ass and doesn't want me to play at higher resolutions than that one =/

I once got hurt from being under water for too long. I spat out a tooth :lol

 

[Shaka]

So anyone else unable to finish the first mission due to Grant randomly fucking freezing. $100 for a game that wont let me past the first mission. What a joke.

 

[mujun]

Should have my copy tomorrow, woot!

 

[BoosterDuck]

5 days and 40 minutes. 5 days and 39 minutes...

 

[Definity]

Played all evening on PC (comfy couch mode) and I love it so far. Deserves the review scores for sure. I've been playing on hard difficulty for an extra challenge. Makes me think about how I approach each situation and only go guns blazing when I really need it.

I can see myself going for 100% in this one because you get rewards for just about everything you do. My only complaints would be the hud and the ui seems a bit clunky. I was a bit worried going in since I hated far cry 2 but there is no comparison at ALL.

Ok...back to the island.

 

[ElyrionX]

What are the differences between Normal and Hard mode? Can you switch between them mid-game?

 

[Tears For Fears]

I like how the PS3 version runs at mid twenties fps.

Same here. I looked at a walkthrough to check my progress. I should have it wrapped up before the weekend is out.

I'm on the fence about which platform to go with. The PC version doesn't seem optimized. My 7970m is good. But people with desktop 670's are barley getting 60fps. The PS3 looks good from the streams I've viewed. It may be the no hassle way to go.

 

[JustProgress]

You downsampling in game? If so, how? Or you just taking pix at a certain res then shrinking them down.

 

[Sethos]

Look at that pretty s-FUCKING MINIMAP SOD OFF!
