I might be wrong but I've heard it looks much sharper on PC than console.

Looks much, much better than on any console.

I didn't realise this happened on purpose, I just thought I had been shot down or somethin when I flew there haha. Couldn't work out why almost nothing was on the island either!

Good game though, spent so much time just causing chaos and hooking people to cars/helicopters etc

that island is also a part of a quest that involves the reason behind planes crashing

OH SNAP. I did the mission on that island but never explored it. I might have to go do that now seeing as a few weeks ago I got hooked on Lost and watched seasons 1-5 back to back heh.

Although, my save is currently stuck in a mission I cannot for the life of me do

Yes a great game indeed, granted some of the action isn't so hot but there is so much to see and do and the fun factor is off the scale.
Looks great even with a lot of settings disabled so those with lesser comps can join in the fun.

A pleasant surprise, especially with the original Just Cause being a heap of dung.

IMO - The first one was much of the same without the fancy visuals.

Gameplay wise, just as crazy.

Game is awesome!

The takeovers do get annoying...can never find everything to get 100%

However everything else makes up for it. Pulling over a statue on my Scooter was fun.

Having fun on the demo, considering buying.

Was just wondering if theres any tips for flying planes with mouse + keyboard, seems a little awkward? Maybe I just need more practice.

It doesn't feel bad to my taste, its twitchier than using a pad but thats because there are no increments on a keyboard, just straight up, down, left, right.

Daaaveee · 2 Apr 2010 at 11:46

Alright I'll just have to practice I guess

Also getting mouse lag, will have to try changing mouse acceleration as I believe that can cause it.

the 360 pad works really well with this game xx

Where is the cheapest place to get this.

grudas · 2 Apr 2010 at 13:28

the monster truck is awesome! :O lol you can basically drive in to the water and just "flow" trough the small parts of it (like under the bridges)

Gimpymoo · 2 Apr 2010 at 14:10

The rest of us will have to buy the Monster Truck as DLC at some point I believe.

The Hovercraft is pretty impressive though.

Seem to get FPS drop off when driving at high speed - never noticed it before. Rest of the time the game sticks to 60fps, kind of annoying. Took over one of the airports (with the fighters jets that come out) - but now they have stopped

i found a racing track

, on the left side of the map where the airport is, if you look just above it you an lsland the track is there.

Hi-res map

Played a demo of this, and...I'm not too fond of it, i mean, i like the graphics and i like the general idea of the game, it just reminds me of GTA too much, and if i want to play a GTA type game, i'd rather play GTA.

Is it just me or is there nothing marked on that map?

On a similar note I found a load of ramps which look like an off road track here:

It's like GTA in my opinion.
