Just for kicks, I captured the map with two of the faction areas shown (Reapers and Ular Boys).  It is best when going directly to the gallery image to view it full size.  Now imagine over 300 named areas, civilian and military spread all over the map that you have the pleasure of clearing out.  The only place without marked settlement of any kind is in the northwest corner - that large island is the Japanese island which is infested with WWII guys that think the war is still on.

I too am looking forward to finally playing the game, and of course I'll post away once I started to play.

I've spent a lot of time, meanwhile, watching different people play through JC2 so this is the first time I know quite a bit of a game without actually having played it. The 100-year-old Japanese soldiers on that island are connected to a faction mission.

Yes, that particular faction mission is lots of fun, and the truck cargo delivery to the beach has been my all time favorite mission - I believe I mentioned it in another thread.  In fact, this is the mission toat tipped the scales for me and made JC2 my favorite game.

All I could think was "whoa, that big tower sure is big!" (as in very tall) :)

Yes, those towers are high enough to give you vertigo!  Also, you get to run between towers on the hige pipes or cables that connect them.

That island is cool.  I can't recall if I posted this link but here is a quick vid of part of that faction mission.  I needed to get from one tower to the next.  My actual target was the smaller tower but knowing I'd eventually need to get to the big one last and not knowing if it'd be timed or not I decided to do some house cleaning first to make my way back up there a bit easier.  This is me jumping from the tallest tower to a smaller one.

oh YEAH!  :) And that was just a small bit, 200 odd meters, I'd like to know how far it is down to the ground. Faceplant, anyone?  :)

Good one, space!  :-X

You do manage to capture good moments  :)

A bit late... but terrific screenpics back there, PZ :-X

And another cool vid from space, nice one mate :-X

PZ

Thanks fragger!  :)

Here are a couple that I took last night - a modded triggered charge (C-4).

The blast is so big, it knocked me down while I was standing on a tall building

lol, waaaay over the top to use in general game play.  However, due to the way mods are installed (simply put them into the "dropzone" folder, it is easy to install/uninstall them.  They don't change the game in any way (unless you're doing new textures)

Art Blade

that is very very cool, sounds like they really encourage modding!

Great looking expolsions in this game :-X :-X

JRD

Yeap... the explosions seems very nice indeed... I like the fire coming out from the black smoke!

Yes, very nice effects - slowly rolling smoke and flame.

A few snapshots:

The draw distance on those last two pics are really great...  8)

Thanks, JRD - I'm using a rather large wide screen monitor and use FRAPS to do the screen captures.  Then using irfanview, it is an easy crop to the point of interest, which makes it much larger in the field of view.  The added benefit is that it is a smaller file size - quicker to upload when on a slow Internet connection  ;)

Thanks, Art - that's part of the fun of playing on the PC - take a snapshot then alt-tab out to the desktop to post it, then return to Panau for more carnage.  ;)

fragger

Some more great pics, nice ones, PZ :-X

The last one looks like the pilot is about to get sucked into that engine!

PZ

lol, you're right!  Thanks for the comment fragger; the govmen make a funny scream that fades into the distance when they fall from height.  ;D

Dang, I wish this game was first person, I don't suppose there's a mod for that?

You and me both!  There is a mod for first person driving, but not fighting.  I'm becoming accustomed to it though, because I received a taste of 3rd person in FO3 and most recently AC2 and Uncharted2.
