Re: Far Cry 5 - 3/27/18
It was a bit of confusion on getting it open and options at first even for me. But one thing to remember is to make sure to gather your crafting materials to keep making certain items like dynamite, Proxy & Remote Explosives & Molotov Cocktails....I personally use those more than others.
Getting the Harvest Master perk is a must along with the Repair Torch which helps you break in Safes which yield a good chunk of loot along with the Silver Bars to use in store for special items.

Re: Far Cry 5 - 3/27/18
Finally finished this. Overll I think it is the second weakest for me in front of 2. By the end I just felt like I wanted to get it over as it just wasn't as fun. And the ending is very....umm different. I personally prefer the bad ending to the good one.
Overall I enjoyed it but it didn't feel as good as it could have been. I kind of hope the next one goes back to its roots with enemies that are human and unhuman.
3.5/5

So, there is no way to avoid being marked by John and captured out of nowhere, right?

Re: Far Cry 5 - 3/27/18
this game makes me yearn to play. hard during week. but, the few hours on weekends to play this and get more stuff and do more things has me so hooked and i think i only scratched surface thus far. the hardest enemy so far was a flame thrower guy...

Finally found the last bobble head. It was on the map, just off the beaten path and not near a travel point like the rest.
Went on to finish the game too. I liked that last boss battle. The ending? Wow, fucked up and ballsy. I liked it.
Now onto arcade mode and some trophy hunting.

So I got caught by John Seed, yada yada got out of there and lost my SA50 that I spent hard earned dollars for. How does that happen?

Go to a vendor and you can get it back at no cost.

Re: Far Cry 5 - 3/27/18
holy shit. having so much trouble trying to beat John's trucks in the North, East, West as a side mission. no matter what weapon i use, vehicle i have to ram, or soldiers with me, i get blasted every time. and when i fast travel to get closer, of course, they are gone. these load screens suck...

If you have trouble come back to the mission later. It's just a Side Mission not a story one.

Re: Far Cry 5 - 3/27/18
Yeah, haven’t gotten that far in story to kill John. And every time I get in a Peggie truck with rail gun attached or whatever, my roster squad, Jess and Grace won’t drive the damn truck despite being in drivers seat. Haven’t come across plane yet. Helicopter yes. But no plane as of yet. I guess I could leave it and free some more outposts or figure out some more prepper stashes. Is that all there is though? Seems repetitive. Still fun, but not a lot of variety yet. Am I wrong?

Re: Far Cry 5 - 3/27/18
That mission was a piece of cake. What I did, take a bigger vehicle and cut them off down the road they are on. Block the road with said vehicle and hop out and camp out on the side of the road. They'll slow down then take them out with some rockets.
Yes, you are wrong. The prepper stashes are just a small fraction of side missions and things to do. If that's all you are doing along with the Outposts and story missions, you are missing out on a ton of content.

Don't have rockets then skip that mission for awhile. Every outpost usually has 2-3 people offering missions after you liberate it.

Re: Far Cry 5 - 3/27/18
I don’t have rockets. The best I have is that sniper rifle. When I block them, they go the other way, but not before blasting me and crew and then load screen. I talk to all people with white I’s above them. Herded some cows, but nothing else. Everyone I talk to in liberated outposts is a prepper stash or another outpost...
If so...I didn't have Rockets at the time I did it but had one of those super built pickup trucks....and yea, I took it and parked in the middle to help block but then threw out three Proxy Explosives spacing them out about two car lengths each and threw one remote where I parked the truck. I've used those Proxy & Remote charges a lot...on roads and outpost. I save and use the rockets on those copters & planes.
Remember for the NPC's to drive or at least for me it has...you have to mark a destination on the map. Hop in the back/turret and they'll get in and drive.

Re: Far Cry 5 - 3/27/18
He's talking about the "3 caravans" mission. Three separate groups of 3 trucks each roaming around John's area.
Proxies and remote charges are awesome. I don't think I had started messing with those until after that mission, but those would have been awesome to pair with the rockets.

Skip that one for now. It's much easier with planes, helicopter, rocket launchers and mines - all of which you can get later. Just wander, esplore. Free prisoners, liberate outposts. Talk to every NPC who has an icon over their head. You'll unlock more skills and weapons and missions.
I wish you had this on a PS4. I would do co op and help you out. Maybe someone here who has this on XO can help you
