Just Cause 2 V.7: The thread that will probably only be used then JC2-MP is up. - Games

[IMG]http://cdn2.netops.eidosinteractive.com/pringo3/data/assets/justcause/images/general/just_cause2.gif[/IMG] Full of insane stunts, huge explosions, and crappy voice acting, Just Cause 2 is the new open world action shooter from Edios, sequel to their well received title Just Cause. Just Cause 2 takes place on the fictional South-East Asian island of Panau. You play as special-agent-mexican-badass Rico Rodriguez as you hunt down rogue agent and former mentor Tom Sheldon. JC2, like the original JC, has an enormous island environment; over 400 square miles. However, unlike the original JC, which had a strictly tropical environment, JC2 has tropical beaches, arid deserts, and snow covered mountains covering the island of Panau. JC2 also offers much larger set pieces than the original. While JC had a few cities and towers scattered about, they were dwarfed by the vastness of the jungle environment. JC2, however, promises gigantic buildings, sprawling cities, mountain bases, and much more, all to contribute to the games emphasis on vertical gameplay. Like the original, JC2 allows almost total freedom of movement due to it's parachute, grappling hook, and stunt maneuvers (and of course, hundreds of vehicles) You can scale the tallest mountain and base jump down into the city if you feel like it. The huge game world offers plenty of opportunities to simply play around. Click any image to go to the larger version.

Here's a way to do it pretty easily. Perfect to use when pulling off cool jumps, or amazing stunts. [/B][/B][/B][B]For those who didn't know about it, it's very easy to get slow motion in JC2: 1. Download Cheat Engine: [URL]http://www.cheatengine.org/download.php[/URL] 2. Start JC2 3. Alt-tab to desktop and start Cheat Engine 4. Select Open Process (upper left icon button) 5. From the process list select the JustCause2.exe 6. Select Settings (upper right corner) 7. In the Settings screen select Hotkeys from the menu/panel on the left Now let's say that you want button V to set game to half speed and button B to set it back to normal speed. 8. Under Functions select Speedhack speed 1. Click the Hotkey field and press V. Click the speed field and enter 0,5. 9. Under Functions select Speedhack speed 2. Click the Hotkey field and press B. Click the speed field and enter 1,0. (I haven't touched the Sleeptime and I don't know what happens if you do, but I'm sure the tutorial says something about it) 10. Click OK. You are now back in the main window of Cheat Engine. 11. Select Enable Speedhack (check box on right side of main window) 12. Just leave the speed at 1,00 and click Apply. 13. Alt-tab back to JC2. You should now get half speed when you click V in the game and normal speed when you click B. Just make sure the hotkeys you use are not used in the button assignments in JC2.[/B] [B][B][B][B] [B][B][B][B][B][B][B][B][B][B][B][B] Now for the reason I made this thread: [/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][/B][IMG]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BIDm9slCEAMmWZp.jpg[/IMG] JC2-MP BETA weekend: [B]Starts 20th April at 9 AM GMT [URL="https://www.jc-mp.com/times/"]Go here to find out what time it starts in your time zone.[/URL][/B] [B]To get the client for the BETA go to[/B]:[URL]https://www.jc-mp.com/[/URL] [B]Client will be uploaded on the day of the test so get ready to download then and have fun.[/B]

Oh shit yeah, I fucking loved playing the last MP test, can't wait.

i'm debating on whether to actually play this game or just wait for the mp mod to come out.

[QUOTE=Pops;40319483]i'm debating on whether to actually play this game or just wait for the mp mod to come out.[/QUOTE] Its still fun with singleplayer. If you wait for the MP mod to be fully released, you'll be waiting a while AFAIK.

Did they announce any changes for this test?

While I do enjoy the MP tests it easily has one of the worst online communities I've ever fucking seen The amount of DM in this shit is crap too, I just want to arse about with vehicles but just get my ass exploded within minutes

Yeah, I really do hope that they either decided to turn off PvP kills except for certain 'battlegrounds' or have two servers with PvP on and off. Easily the most annoying thing from the tests was getting away from spawn because of shitlord snipers.

The MP on this is actually fun. The main airport is absolute CHAOS, planes struggling to take off, people crashing left and right. Its amazing.

When it's released you can always join a server that has PVP off, I'm sure they'll exist, right now they need everything enabled to test stuff. Anyway, the changelog has been released and: [quote]Added spawn protection (no shooting or damage within 10m of spawns)[/quote] So be happy now. For more changelog just go to their site [url]https://www.jc-mp.com/[/url]

[QUOTE=Glorbo;40330103]Why are you playing in MP then?[/QUOTE] Because its massive fun and Just Cause 2 has so many things to do with other people Except for combat.

I love just going around in JC2 just plain driving, my only problem is that there's no unbreakable motorcycle so I can cruise around and do stunts.

I haven't played JCMP in a long time, did they ever implement guns properly?

[editline]19th April 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;40333822]I haven't played JCMP in a long time, did they ever implement guns properly?[/QUOTE] Going off the last test gums worked decently, although they feel really inaccurate at time but that's probably a hit detection problem.

So are we going to have a Facepunch Island or something?

that "map of EVERYTHING" doesn't have much on it at all.

God damnit these tests are always at the most inconvenient of times The last test was RIGHT when the holidays ended and it was back to school and now this test is when I don't even have access to the computer Out of all the boring ass weekends where I had nothing to do JC MP devs out to get me

I really don't want to 100 % JC2. Every time I destroy say, one of those giant radio masts I feel a little bad because I'd have to start a new game to experience that again. Unless there is some reset button once you 100% it.

[QUOTE=Blockhead;40350515]So are we going to have a Facepunch Island or something?[/QUOTE] Hopefully so.

[t]http://i.imgur.com/zQzxINk.jpg[/t] I found a slice of pie in JC2, maybe you should add it to the op Easter eggs. The coordinates are x:24473 Y:912"

Just under an hour now, guys. Edit: They put an early link to the download on their facebook. [url]http://static.jc-mp.com/setup.exe[/url]

Twenty minutes, get hyped.

[QUOTE=Reds;40353817]Twenty minutes, get hyped.[/QUOTE] Aye. I'm hoping to not get spawn camped, once I get in.

[QUOTE=DETrooper;40353822]Aye. I'm hoping to not get spawn camped, once I get in.[/QUOTE] I expect hundreds of dicks who relentlessly chase you and refuse to let you do anything. I really hope I can find a sever close to Australia. [editline]20th April 2013[/editline] ETA: Six minutes. [editline]20th April 2013[/editline] One minute. Prepare your grappling hooks.

One minute.

This new launcher is horrible [editline]20th April 2013[/editline] oh nvm I was logged in the wrong steam account

Damn it, I was just in a race and I lost connection :suicide:

Is anyone else getting random slowdowns for what seems to be no good reason? My fps keeps dropping to about 8, even though there's no one around, and I'm standing completely still.

Last night I was pretty pissed off, Stayed up til 12 just to find out it was in another timezone. Anyways, I'll be playing as [FP] Sam Stone.

Connection goes out often for me.
