Game looks like it could be quite fun so im considering it but i found i can get it on either the 360 or pc for close to the same price, whats best as this is a third person shooter and looks made for console?

Also just wondering why if it was released not long ago there are DLC already when it could have been in the game? though it seems for once it's at a reasonable price, still being out so soon seems a bit questionable tbh.

Xbox pad on the pc, definitely the best bet.

Day One dlc isn't a new thing, and not particular to this game. They gave a free dlc, then another two later on. the monster truck is the best 75p you will ever spend, like honest and stuff.

My xbox pad is wireless :/ But then, i hate having to aim with my thumbs!

Finally getting used to controlling it with mouse and keyboard, but i still wish i could use mouse buttons 4+5 :mad:

Impressive engine, very smooth and fast even at high settings.
Pity about the poor control settings though

You can use the wireless pad on a PC with an adapter I think. I find the aiming is very good on the xbox pad actually, I'm not usually that good with them but this seems pretty decent!

I got a wireless adapter dirt cheap from Gamestation, it was under a fiver, I think. So it would be an idea to check the local places.

anyone tried the "traffic" Plane mod ?

all civicilian traffic becomes planes (of all types)

totally pointless but so much fun (and carnage !)

Little tip if you bought the DLC and find it annoying that you have to buy the parachute thrusters every time you load a game:

Only problem is that it gets rid of the overheat bar, but that didn't bother me though

Has anyone done the 'Destroy the Oil Rig' mission?

I've gone round and round the thing looking for stuff to destroy but can only find 72% worth :confused:

Got all the tanks on the bottom and took out the crane and a generator, is there a bug on it or something?

Also, my mate says that on the Xbox version the radar tells you where things u need to destroy are, is that not the case for the pc version?

Have you destroyed the rigging part itself yet?

You also have to collect any armour, money etc to get 100%.

The crane on the top has multiple bits to destroy but if you knock it off the rig without first destroying the extra oil tanks etc on it it sinks beneath the sea. Try diving down round about the rig and see if you can see them on the sea bed.

Narj · 10 May 2010 at 11:18

Actually I'd like a mod that highlights where the bits are you need to destroy - it's frustrating wasting ages on 99% in a settlement, then you finally manage to find a box tucked away in a tiny alcove... :mad:

Oh bugger, ive just seen a video of it. There's a container right at the top of the tower :eek:

How annoying, thank you, i'll give it another go tonight

This is a great strategy, and will help no end. Search around on foot, then float around on the parachute, getting increasingly more angry. Get a helicopter gunship, unleash hell on the location, then a nearby village. Run around on foot again, go in the cream puff and exit the game. Start it up 20 minutes later, find it right away.

sWiZzLe · 10 May 2010 at 18:17

Only 2 of the places ive been to i have been able to get 100%

The rest i just give up on, it's not worth the boredom or running round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round the entire location multiple times :rolleyes:
