I heard that you can finish the game in 15 minutes during the first act of the game?
Any info on that?

You playing on PS4?
I didn't receive a patch on PS4 but here is what is being fixed in an upcoming patch.
http://www.lazygamer.net/xbox-360/heres-whats-coming-in-far-cry-4s-next-big-patch/
Surprisingly PS4 is not suffering from these issues.
It's an Easter egg
Just stay in the opening room for 15 minutes and Pagan Min will take you to an end sequence and credits will roll after that.
No achievement for that ending though.
Hours just seem to disappear while playing this game.

I can't stop playing this game. It's likely my GOTY so far.
burning worked, but shooting doesn't.
he is hitting the bars of the cell door.
and does anyone know how to get to the chest in the most south building in the city of pain?

Imgur jpgs. Also, the console versions are probably using some gross post AA.

The game seems to have overblown contrast on all platforms too. It doesn't help things. I think the game looks good, though.

Not too sure why I'm not feeling this, I LOVED Far Cry 3 and this is basically the same game.

is there any reason at all to get all of the collectibles? You get the trophies by only collecting a few of each one.
Wtf. I played for about 20 minutes getting skins for a couple of crafting upgrades and then making them. I then fast traveled and suddenly my crafting upgrades were both fucking gone. Turned it off and went back to dragon age. Really frustrating because otherwise I'm enjoying the hell out of the game.

Just finished the "Blood Ruby" DLC mission. For anyone that likes to take a really stealth approach it's a good mission. It takes you into the Himalayas so the only way of healing more than the normal way is from what you bring and whatever healing kits are around (which are very few).

yeah I really liked that mission.
getting out of there felt like a james bond movie

Very true...
I screwed my escape up though by crashing so I fail at being Bond...lol

Yep. I waz confused at first too, but the game crafts them for you. You can keep gathering green plants after you've reached your syringe limit and the game will keep auto crafting syringes after you've used the ones in your inventory. This is just one example of a few of the player-friendly design decisions in this game that show some real game-design savvy. Simple but makes the game experience smoother and better.

He says he will be back in 15. It is a good test to see if the game is throwing a bullshit timer at you.

This game has got me hooked. I am not even playing the story missions. Having a blast doing side quests and just fooling around. GTA V, AC Unity and WWE are on the back burner.
That's great to hear; I thought they'd taken out the ability to craft your own health syringes from FC3. Odd that they don't tell you they now create them automatically, unless I missed it.

I am somehow almost 8 hours in and just 10 minutes ago realized I could use C4 and Mines. I had NO idea they were already unlocked. Amazing.
No bullshit whatsoever, this is easily one of my GOTY contenders, and it may very well be a runaway with no competition. It is easily the most fun I have had just fucking around in a game in a very long time.
It is very important to point out I no longer really have the luxury of fucking around in games. I just have extremely limited time to play video games so when I do play them, 95% of the time I just go full steam ahead and play the SP campaign without much deviation at all. The last game I really played in a lackadaisical manner was GTA V last year.
8 hours in and according to the game I am only at 10% completion. And I'll be damned this is the most fun I have had not doing anything at all.
My only "gripes" are:
What I really think the game does brilliantly and much, much better than most games is allows the player to figure shit out on their own without being too obtuse or cheap about it. Exploration and experimentation is encouraged in a natural way. There is so much to figure out yet it does not take a PHD to do so. That is not easy at all, and minus a few small things here and there, they really have done a great job of keeping it complex yet approachable.
Easily in my Top 3 GOTY contenders, and very well may be a very strong #1.
The best part about it all is I was second guessing my preorder all the way up to release day. I really thought I done fucked up and was deciding to support a potential dud. I was dead wrong, and that makes it that much better.

- Armor is pretty much useless, as it is so easy to lose it quickly.

These things are so awesome:
Far Cry 4 - Mortar strike

I had no idea wtf had happened when the first strike hit, hence why I stand still in bewilderment. Lol.

All you have to do for stealth on the outposts is circle around then with a bow. Stay OUTSIDE the area and remain in foliage. Mark all you can with your camera first and take out all low level ones first. If your arrow doesn't find its mark them back away until enemies return to their patterns. Just slowly take them all out one by one. Once all you have are heavies then go into post and cut alarms. Using the fire or grenade launchers well take out the heavy fast. If you have more than one them just stay outside and use bow. Land a shot them back away. Rinse and repeat. They go down after 4 or 5 arrows.
Started playing tonight, really enjoying it. Plays near exactly like Far Cry 3, but just fine tuned more, and other improvements. Which, I guess isn't bad as I loved Far Cry 3, but I feel like they could havent changed some stuff up alittle.
I've just been capturing Outpost for the last couple hours, instead of playing the campaign. Its so fun to play stealthily. Don'e all 10 so far without being detected.

They have a nack of firing 1000 rounds of ammunition into the air to celebrate their victory.
Also - eagles. Eagles everywhere.
Kind of like how we Americans clap at everything.

The DJ's comments about twerking are hilarious.
I just made it to
, and have about 7 or 8 missions left. I'm hoping to finish them by this time tomorrow.
I'm having so much fun doing all sorts of different things that the campaign is taking a while.

It's either failing to, or taking a long time to register 15 distracted enemies (with rocks). I've been doing it quite often.
True; there's not enough stuff to buy. I've bought everything I can and my wallet's always full.
