Hey Idaho, I just realized that Russel Wilson is the last rookie QB standing in the playoffs!

Really? Maybe you're playing on a lot harder mode than I am. I'm playing on Normal probably. Definitely shouldnt take a few hours. Have you unlocked the recipe for endorphin boost? That doubles your normal 4 bar health to an 8 bar. Also take one of them Fireproof syringes as well.

I'll be joining this club house as soon as I can afford to get this game... I thought I was going to be able to afford it after the first of the year, but I've had a flat tire on my truck(I let my sister borrow my truck and she bent one of my front rims...), and my wife has had a flat tire on her new van... Our front loading washing machine drain pump went out last week as well... great start to 2013.. Well that's my definition of Insanity.. lol Hopefully my luck will start turning around, and I'll be able to afford this game.

Finished and picked the more "light side" ending, if you would, to save spoilers. I really wish this game had a few small things.

1. The main character not such a little whiny, weak, wussy.
2. An option to quick-loot instead of having to go through the loot animation EVERY time.
3. Little bit simpler crafting/inventory system.
4. Other small things such as... When you pick up a weapon for a hunting quest, complete the hunting quest, it should auto re-equip your old weapon. You shouldn't have to QTravel back, go into the clunky weapons menu and re-equip it into it's old slot.
5. Ability to adjust the minimap position. It sticks out way too far from the bottom and left side of my screen. It could be a lot closer and more out of the way.
6. Option to turn off the loud unnecessary sounds every time you open the map or the menu...

Other than crap like that, this game is pretty awesome. I'm not as hooked as I was at the beginning, but the last time I enjoyed a game like this was Skyrim, which I fell out of love with way too fast. Didn't even finish!

This game is definitely my GoTY though!

There has been a texture mod released for Far Cry 3.

http://forums.ubi.com/showthread.php...re-Pack-Forums

I have noticed after playing this game a lot there are a lot of mesh problems and UV errors with stretched textures.

Yeah I have too. Have you modded yet and if so how does it look? Starting Deepthroat tonight. Where are you at level wise Phenom ?
Crafted up a few things and sitting pretty good for this level now.

Screenies!

I used the "printscreen" default on my keyboard and for some reason the screen shots come out darker and are not as good as in-game . Still a beautiful work of colors, FC3 is packed full of vivid eye-candy graphics.



Bow is perfect for taking out pirates in stealth



Sunset



moonlight



Fire good!



Here is funny glitch I discovered when adding a red-dot attachment to the revolver



How many Relics do you have?




spoiler alert!

Now I don't know if any of you guys have come across this yet, but how perfect is this for an outpost take over? (with the use of a silienced sniper rifle)

Far Cry 2 is a good game and it has it's flaws, but if you fast travel using the bus stops you won't notice the respawning enemies as much. If you decide to play it, don't forget to get the realistic mod.

I'll have to check out that mod. Sounds like it may help with the funky POS guns ?
The Single Player was good. The Multiplayer was garbage though. FC3 has a far better
multiplayer. I seen Orgin has Crysis 2 for $5 now. I may end up getting it even though
I have said I wouldn't.

Thread creator should change the thread name/clubhouse name to "Far Cry 3 - Enemies of whatever club"

I am playing this game but not reading any documentation or the "diary" part of the game, and have no fucking idea who VAAS is!!!!! (Semijoking, I suppose it is the bad guy in the game... LOL)

Just wanted to make sure people are keeping spoiler alerts on the DL. I still haven't beaten the game so if you do have a spoiler that you must go out public about it, please use a Show Spoiler thingy

I'll give you some advise, make sure to use your skill points
and not save them up like me and get in a pickle
Did you play Crysis 2 Phenom ? Seems like a pretty good
game especially for $5. You still hitting BF3 regularly ?
