Sorry for resurrecting an old thread, but I?m half way thru the game. Does anyone know that when you drive jeep can you do third person perspective or not (on 360 btw). I mean it?s really awkward, not the mention that 95% of your time goes into driving to and from the mission.

No third-person in the game at all. It's all first-person.

I beat the game a month or so ago. I have to say, the ending's such as letdown it's not even funny. I've seen reviews praise the game for its story and I just have to scratch my head... what story?! The game has great interaction and some good environments, but the story is almost non-existent.

I really hated this game. I played it on a console so maybe that was it? But I really hated the whole concept of it. I hated the "open world-ness". I hated the diamond hunting. I hated the fact that it took 10 minutes to go from place to place. I hated the malaria sub-plot. I hated the dull characters. And most, I hated the AI. How do people start shooting at me if I'm 2 houses away?

Ok maybe im dumb, but i dont get it, i cant even pass the second mission, i die before i reach the point, i die of malaria, and when im about to take pills the can is empty, where i get pills or what should i do?

Perhaps you should visit a priest before you die. [/hint]

got the game a few days ago and I'm definitely enjoying the singleplayer, though getting from mission to mission can get annoying, you basically have to take out the same outposts over and over again. it's great how you can choose your own tactics and all, the AI is pretty good.

hated this game. i can't be tactical. they marketed this game as if I could choose to play it with an element of stealth. but the AI could see through walls.

diamond hunting is boring.

it takes 20 mins to get from place to place while guys are trying to kill me for not specific reason at the same time.

no thanks.

    • The site is pretty sparse on features / tech specs. Can I plug it into a PC/hone/Switch via USB-C and use it as an external display? If so, what's the virtual resolution of the screen, the refresh rate, PPI of the image etc? Is the text crisp enough to use for coding at say 12pt? Is it good enough for playing dark games, like say Path of Exile 2? How about fast games like car racing games? Just how do they expect anyone to order this thing without giving out all this info?
    • I call complete bs on this - no way your average joe / jane is using AI.
