I don't think JC2 is a bad game, I just think it's way out of Rockstars/GTA's league.


Exactly. Very Happy


Yep, that's why there's GTA and there's GTA-Style game...

Greatness isn't made everyday. and GTA IV is greatness.


Don't make me think of Red Dead Redemption! That's still so far off Sad

agree... while the landscape is breathtaking, the car handeling fucking sucks. Its also a little buggy at times. But except that I pretty much love it.
Dual hook is pretty neat, but guess it gets old pretty quick.

Anyway, done all the 49 faction missions and im just doing races and collecting stuff. Got 2 more agency missions, dunno exactly when im gonna do them.

What can you do with the dual hook?

I have not been using it... should I have been?

lol, use your imagination man Smile
You can for example hook objects/vehicles to planes or helicopter and then drop them Wink
You do it in a mission, but wont spoil anything if you haven't done it Wink Or as it explains in the beginning, you can kill two enemies in a combo with it Wink

The best use for dual hook is when you're on a roof of a car driven by an NPC and being chased by enemies. Instead of shooting tires or soldiers just dual hook the car to the ground and watch it fly into the air.

BUT this stupid game has only 1 (one) such mission! Of course you can jump on the roof of the car you're driving and attempt the same thing but you will definitely end up in a ditch or going off a cliff because your car will be uncontrolled.

IMO the best trick with dual hook is attaching a neutral citizen (harder to do with an enemy) to an UPRIGHT gas tank (the long ones that fly around when shot). Then shoot the gas tank once and watch the poor bastard rocket into the sky Smile

You know whats kinda funny?
Seems like even the devs themselves understand the cars handle like shit; you have an insane amount of time to finish the races Surprised
Have around 1m-30sec left on most races. But well, you need that time if the car goes sideways, and there is of course no proper way to stabilize the car after a proper contra

I gotta agree. Many little things like that which make me feel like the game was rushed so it could be released in time for this years financials.... anyone else agree?

It could have been TRUELY AMAZING with a bit more effort...

Lol I knew it would be there when I was playing that Lost mission Smile

Btw, that brings up another issue with the game - why couldn't the devs add more nods to other games, movies and series? No one would sue them for putting up a stone foot on the island or adding a meth-cooking trailer somewhere in the desert. Right now it looks like a game written by techie guys, ex-programmers turned producers and project managers.

Not sure, but there are maybe 49 faction missions and 9 stronghold takeovers. You can complete them all after finishing the 7 story missions. Smile

depends on how many you do before you do the main missions. If you do enough chaos they are available way before the last agency missions. There are 49 faction missions in total.

Upgrade the small heli (forgot his name) from black market to level 6 and always use him for the air challenges. Easy control + it's really fast. Very Happy
