The High Tides DLC came out today (at least on PC, don't know about the consoles, but I assume there as well, unless it came out weeks ago there lol) which adds two new CO-OP missions and 4 new CO-OP only (at least that's what the Steam page says) skins.

I have tried to finish this game but I was continually getting lock ups after failing a mission. Had to quit the game using the task manager and when restarting the game it was a lottery as to the location the game would load to.

Had to disable SLI just to get the game to play without crashing. Just became too frustrating for me.

Like Colin said, I did get to the stage in the helicopter but was shot out of the air by rocket launchers that I couldn't even see.

I'm sad I beat the game a while ago. I loved it. But now that there is no "story" to really explore, I have lost interest in the game.

This. I want to know if more story-based / "new island" type DLC will be released before I trade it in, been hanging onto it with hopes for a while.

Far Cry 3 adding optional outpost respawns, Master difficulty

"The definition of insanity," Ubisoft made a point of having Far Cry 3 antagonist Vaas declare in trailers, "is doing the exact same ****ing thing over and over again, expecting sh-t to change." If you like to get a little crazy, though, Ubi is working on an option to reset all outposts, letting you retake them and retake them to your heart's content. A new, harder 'Master' difficulty level is coming too, along with new multiplayer and map-making features.

Ubisoft detailed a variety of new features in a forum post, not offering any specific time or even timeline, but saying they'll come in "upcoming patches."

If you want to reset outposts, Far Cry 3 will have a simple option in the Gameplay menu to make it so. They'll be refilled with enemies, and you'll need to retake them to get any incomplete side-missions and quests back. You can shake up your approach, try new things, but ultimately you'll still be conquering outposts and Vaas will be proven right, right? Right. Right on.

As for Master difficulty, Ubi offers no specific details, but says, "Seasoned veterans will find themselves challenged by more aggressive wildlife, tougher pirates, and more deadly privateers."

It's also working on a map testing system, improved custom map feedback options, ways to find all maps from a particular author, disabling the idle kick time on custom maps, and more.

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
    • To be clear I'm anti trump, the bigger point is why review this game at all?
    • Trillion dollar Microsoft has to reduce spending by hurting more people. Good job Microsoft. Good Job Asha.
