Just cause 3

Still downloading here, although six hours looks a lot better than the original 24 hours when I started, but that was almost a day ago :o

Woops, forgot to hit the last page again to reply..

Off to explore the Volcano, although I did attempt it last night staying up till 4AM was not good.. Shall try again although it's going to take a long time even by speed boat.

I watched Jim Sterling's quick play of this on YouTube last night and he suggested that there aren't actually that many story missions - then you just go round blowing stuff up. Over and over.

Blowing stuff up sounds like fun... but might grow repetitive.
 
TotalBiscuit's WTF Is... suggested that the vast majority of the game (90% in his estimation) is just roaming around the island blowing up 'chaos objects' and liberating towns/cities/bases, and that you have no choice but to do that as the story missions are gated behind doing so. Apparently it gets pretty repetitive. The side missions also look pretty dull, unless you like driving things through giant rings, but you have to do those too as upgrades are gated behind them.

Really it seems to mainly be a massive sandbox where you can blow things up to your heart's content, without much beyond that. I guess that's fine, given the low price (picked it up for just over £16 personally). Performance on a GTX 780 seems reasonable, but v-sync is a no-go since it has no triple buffering, so crashes down to 30fps when the framerate drops. Forcing it via the control panel seems to have no effect.
 
The driving physics are dodgy, trying to do races with a car that can't handle for toffee could prove to be a controller breaker!
 
I like this and it's replacing Elite while AMD get their fingers out and fix the drivers. I must have been one of the first to play it as I was getting records all over the place last night.
 
Just had a go, should be studying while the kids are at school. opps

I went to the power station and started to blow things up.. Used the zip line on the center building and some how got stuck inside. With no way out. lol

That's EXACTLY where I got stuck. I stopped playing but when I load back in I hope I'm not stuck inside again. :(
 
I don't understand how Nvidia (when working together to implement Gameworks and slaps their name on the box) allows developers to come out without proper SLI support.

I mean it looks even worst when they advertise their own features in those games...

SLi profile in latest drivers!

The latest driver forces single gpu usage only via the control panel. Bloody annoying.

Looks nowhere near as nice as GTA 5 anyway, cars and planes handle like crap after coming from GTA 5.

Glad I only paid £18, Just Cause 2 was better than this :(
