Just Cause 2

[hoodyallen]

To put it simply.

This game is going to be sick. The demo was crazy.

The closer this game gets the more excited I am. Earlier this year I couldn't give two shits. After playing the demo I'm stoked. It also helps that I'm a sucker for sandbox games.

I've played the demo so many times. Now I just steal the military helicopter and cause havoc every time.

Where is that? The only chopper I found was at a settlement at the top of the hill near where you first start the demo. It doesn't have any weapons.

The amazing thing is that I still haven't even grasped the idea of latching two things together with the grappling hook. Once I figure that out I can't imagine how immensely fun the game will be. Attaching an enemy to an exploding barrel or moving vehicle would probably never get old.

as much as i hatred the first game, this one is pretty fun. seems much more polished then 1. The map looks huge, but i hope it isnt like Far Cry 2 where it all looked the same.

my problem at this point is i cant figure out what i am supposed to be doing other than causing chaos

That's seriously the main point. You are trying to basically overthrow the government by fucking everything up in your path. It's genius.

I have a feeling this game might be a sleeper hit, this years Red Faction.

i love the grappling hook. Makes me feel like i am batman

I have the demo dl'd on both systems...guess I will try it today (before Selection show starts). Not sure if I will buy it day one, but from the sounds of it...I will pick this one up in the future; never bought the first one.

the demo (and from what i read, the game itself) is nothing more then blowing stuff up. I mean its fun, but its just roaming around shooting badguys and blowing stuff up. the demo gets repetitive.

i found that assault copter. Its in the upper left area of the map in a military base. i get in it with no problem but i get blown to shit before it gets 20 feet in the air

No chance. There will be all sorts of story missions and side missions. Hell, I know of one mission where you have to take out some radar tower by parachuting onto it from a jacked plane, planting C4 while battling dudes and then sky dive off of it while it blows up behind you while plummeting to the ground.

Right near your starting base theres a place called "military base". On the helicopter pad is a helicopter with a gun and missiles. I just started really using the grappling hook too, grappling them to explosives is amazing. One thing I'm disappointed with is that you can't fly up into the hair if you grapple yourself to one of those cannisters that rockets into the sky. You can hold on to it while it takes off but you don't go flying with it.

Really? Because I was listening to the most recent Joystiq podcast and they were talking about being able to do just that.

I tried it like 10 times. I shot the canister, grappled onto it, and then when it flew upwards my Grapple just extended and extended until it snapped back to me. I even tried jumping as it took off.

I still haven't been able to use a canister like this.

I need to get this demo after seeing how much a lot of you guys enjoy it.

After watching the video I was able to do it pretty easily. Shoot the canister, wait a few seconds then shoot your grapple into the top of the canister.
