It's alright, they aren't real honey badgers, just sort of pictures of them.

Also, it tends to be less 'I need to kill honey badgers for my new bumbag' and more 'right, how am I going to approach this outpost... FUCK! *dakka dakka dakka* FUCK! *heal* get off me you fucking psychopathic... SHIT! *heal while running away* right you little bastard. *switches to shotgun. Boom-kachunk!* Ha! Wait...Shit! *heal* you fucking ... *Boom-kachunk! Boom-kachunk! Boom-kachunk! Boom-kachunk!* it's dead. Might as well skin it.*skins* Wait, what are all those red dots on the radar. Shit! The outpost!'

This sounds superb! Is it Far Cry 3 but more and better? Use the Share button more!

Here you go! Including Tiger vs Landmine, Outpost Frantic Bowdown, and Patrol vs Tiger (AKA "I'll Take a That Tiger Skin.")

Remember the friend I fell out with? No? Anyway... He tweeted about this game being shit because you can kill wild animals. He even used the hashtag #fuckfarcry.

Two days later he bought GTAV. The next day, he traded that in for Farcry 4.

Doesn't sound like the actions of a sane man, does it?

Stealthy outpost assault.

You can get this for £24 on PS4 and Xbox One if you are quick.

Not sure you can call it stealthy if you use C4 to blow folks up! ;)

Loving that people can just upload their vids to the forum with ease at the moment.

The Outpost Master thing which appears in this after you liberate each outpost is genius. Had so much fun trying different things. I nearly cleared one with two arrows. One to destroy the alarm and another to piss off an elephant which then laid waste to everyone except the heavy gunner chap.

Seems it's limited to two hours online play. Doesn't say how many players it supports though: http://far-cry.ubi.com/en-GB/keys-to-kyrat/index.aspx

Fyi its an imminent purchase now, so I would be up for cooooop.

Post subject:  Re: Far Cry 4

Worth noting that as far as I am aware only the host player makes progress in the game during co-op mode. The guest player doesn't play as "them", if you follow me, but only as a special character in the other world. Also, it's 2-player only (probably for game balance reasons). Two player stealth outpost takedowns would be ace though. Two player elephant riding takedowns even better.

Then there's this:

One player can grapple the bottom of a gyrocopter being driven by the other player. And then, obviously, ride into battle.

I'd be very up for trying this, although I'm likely to be busy all weekend so it'll be next week now.

Also, be aware the download is 26 GB.

Those gyrocopters, they don't fly very well. Also they behave nothing like gyrocopters, more like small helicopters, if anything. :nerd: >:( :nerd:

The top graphics quality setting is called "nVidia", though.

I got one upgrade, the red dot one.

I can shoot through leaves and everything.

Post subject:  Re: Far Cry 4

The next sight up (as you can see) has a graduated scale to allow you to estimate drop-off. I think I've pulled off kills from beyond 100 m in FC3, although that's currently unachievable for me in FC4 as I haven't unlocked the "less bow shake" upgrade.

Edit -- certainly more than 70 m; I have the cheevo for it.

I was chasing little monkey things around and blundered into a firefight that was interrupted by an annoyed rhino. And stuff caught fire. Epic.

This is a very good game, early days so far. Soaking it up rather than rushing through the story. Hope there are characters as good as Vaas was in FC3 only really dealt with the Golden Driveway since escaping from Gok Wan.
