Which one? Haha there's at least a couple..
I like it for both, co-op is more fun I think, but I also have fun taking out bases solo with the AI and collecting little things between sessions.
am doing it solo and i am loving it...so much fun.

When I play solo, I seem to enjoy sticking to missions and plowing through that content. When I play with buddies, it's just all out mayhem wherever we end up going. Both of these are incredibly fun but in different ways.
The AI of your teammates during solo can be hit or miss but I'll say this, I've died way more than them and they always come to my rescue. If they'd just see it upon themselves to engage more on their own, I'd have no complaints.

Something about the feedback loop of exploring and finding weapons is incredibly satisfying.

Yeah there is an option to 'Edit Appearance' but I don't remember off hand where it appears. I think it might be in the lobby screen. If playing on PC, click 'l' and look at the lower left of the screen. Or it might be in the load out screen.

It is in lower left on load-out screen. Think it might be 'g' from that screen, or just click on the icon.

I think when you go to Loadout.

I still haven't got over how massive each section of Santa Blanca is in itself. IT's HUUUUGGGEEEE. I've taken down I want to say 7 cartel sub bosses. And I'm just loving the ever living fuck out of this game despite the similar mission structure. There is something so satisfying about sniping a dude from miles away.
Just go to the skill or loadout screen and press triangle. You can change hair, tattoos, face paint. And you can have up to 6 clothing loadouts (special outfits). I have a ninja, a wookie, a demolition man, and a macho man.

Has anyone created a network for PS4 players?

I've got a 6x scope on my sniper. I want better, but I can pull off 400M shots really easily. At least when they are standing still.
I haven't tried anything more than a 400M shot though. I'm curious how much that epic sniper perk helps.
Can't imagine it really matters. In any case they despawn or exit your view distance somewhere between 700 and 800. Highest for me is 600 something so far.

The new Nvidia drivers made a massive difference. Last night the game was completely unplayable due to stuttering and awful fps. Then the complete opposite today.
Yep. Press Y or the keyboard/PS4 equivalent.

A blast playing online with Belker and his friend.. Extreme difficulty and a UNIDAD base proved too much.. Advanced difficulty is much more my speed!
Man co-op is so good in this game. It's literally like co-op Mercenaries.. Which was my favorite game of that generation. Love it.

Man, that mission where you rob the bank in El Pupo's territory is a blast. Working your way in, taking out the Radar Jammer, then slowly disabling the alarms, placing a C4 on the generator to explode right before you enter the vault... this game's storyline is eh, but the stories you can make yourself with friends is unparalleled. Really enjoying this game.

I did some testing solo and I was able to get a max of 600M on xbox one. One more meter back and my target would disappear from view. Does anyone know how much further back can you go on PC?
The 700-800m mark is from PC. Not sure what the exact is, it's something past 750 or around that.

"THIS IS OPERATION KINGSLAYER, LISTEN UP...."
Argh, Ubi... don't blast me with an intro movie that can only be skipped by pressing ESC for three freaking seconds every time I start the game.

Just played five hours straight with my bros. Haven't done that in a long time. Really fun game.

I know the writing gets a lot of crap but that's mostly because of the dialogue - the backstory is actually way more interesting than I thought it would be.
Really enjoy delving into the narco-economy with all its quirks, like the way religion, social media and culture are perverted by the cartel. If you accept the heightened reality of the game, the world building is nicely done.

Still I would appreciate a voice pack that lets the operators talk like professionals instead of bloodthirsty teenagers.

Narcocorrido, wow

Yes, I had a great time last night. On that assault, I'm unsure about whether to go for extreme or advanced difficulty. I think I like the some of the tension that extreme seems to add, but it does slow the game down a lot and doesn't necessarily play well with the mechanics.
I've got the footage of us finding the Lilliputians on the street - and how one escaped a mortar strike that came out of nowhere and was not part of a Skyrim-style test to see what happened to NPCs. I can post it if consensus is the swearing and situation is OK for the forum.
Apologies to CrudeDiatribe from WildlandsGAF - I only saw you on as I was going to bed. If you see me in a party, do hop in. If we can't play we can at least say hello.
I believe Ubisoft said in a conference or something a few months ago that they're moving away from traditional stories in their games, and looking for for those emergent "player experience" stories.
This game seems to be a fairly good example of that.
Much fun to be had going out doing your own things at your own phase while also having hilarious glitches and desync causing player avatars to spas out 😂
Fuck Unidad so much tho, patrols with laser eyes and they never stop coming either 😡
There's nothing better than going full stealth and a chopper see you from 3 KM far from you, I wish I could sync shot the pilot of the choppers.

I don't think i would change the difficulty. The pace and fluctuating success of the co op so far is just right. Two zones done, hours and hours of fun and exploring.

Just an incredible amount of beautiful scenery in this game. Everywhere you go there's a pocket of the map that looks like a postcard. The scale of mountains and high altitude bases is impressive.
I ended renaming a bunch of video files, now the game starts faster than it can connects to Ubi servers.
Just use the comm rose and tell your A.I. to open fire. Boom chopper, down.

I would have- but I was five-more-minutesing it after I left a party chat with friends past my own needed bedtime. Oops.

Depends on your style...
I am able to play stealth better as solo and am quite enjoying it.
As a coop it seems more relaxed and guns blazing (at least with my friends)
But both are really enjoyable.
I've got about 10 hours in solo only. There's something about this game... it ticks a lot of boxes for me. Massive gorgeous world that rewards exploration, pretty damn good tactics- every base/settlement/etc needs different approaches and can be completed in many different ways.
It also isn't purely a stealth game or a full on assault game. You need to do both depending on the circumstances of the mission (either through choice or having your cover blown). This allows you to explore the entire breadth of the games' systems.
It has pulled me entirely away from Nier, Horizon and BOTW which I was absolutely loving as well.

Man, this is just silly. I wish they'd release a patch or something fixing glaring issues like that. It's really eclipsing this amazing coop game.
Find intel on your map (exclamation point in a white circle) to mark the location of new weapons. They appear as blue icons on the map. It's also how you locate weapon accessories, skill points and medals.
