PZ, in FC4 you don't have buddies.

Oh yes, I know, but that i why it is on a wishlist -  wish it could be a buddy much like the dog in Fallout  :-()

[Art Blade]

you'd have to throw in a few boars for him to catch and take away for dinner. :-()

[fragger]

PZ knows all about boars ;) >:D

including how to pilot them  :-D

LOL, Art, I've seen eagles carrying things off but could never get close enough to get a good pic or video. Nice catch.

And here's a few I took, mostly the details type:

If I read this correctly, it's saying that reading the warning may limit legal options, so it should be ignored? lol

hmmmm.... it seems when I upload images it reduces them for some reason? Here's a cropped version so you can read it easier.

Our old friend, the conflict diamond, makes an appearance, and mentions Bowa-Seko

And the map found on various tables and such, gives a nice overview of the world.

thanks, D_B :-D

And yes, uploaded pictures get a little scrambled server-sided.

Nice catch on the Bowa-Seko description, I only noticed conflict diamonds and sold them without ever reading the description. :)

The warning sign, LOL  :-X

PZ knows all about boars ;) >:D

:-X

Maybe I'd need to throw a boat to get them to cooperate  ????

Great finds, D_B - I recall you also did a details topic in the FC2 boards  :-X  +1 for helping me remember the old days

[Art Blade]

 :)

[fragger]

Nice details, D_B :-X

For once in a FC game, a map found somewhere in the landscape actually matches the game map! About time they got that right :-()

[Art Blade]

 :-D

I don't know what this bizarre-looking thing is supposed to be. Maybe it's a representation of शासक Elvishiva.

Stupid place for me to leave my gyro - every time I tried to get back into it, I fell down one of the holes.

[smg id=7672 align=center width=600]

Avalanche!!!

Nice pics fragger.  :)

Are avalanches a useful game mechanic (in the right conditions) like fire has been in the other FC games or are they only triggered on special occasions with the intent of killing off your character?

[PZ]

Nice pics, fragger!

That old prune looks somewhat familiar 

[Art Blade]

mandru, it's scripted.

PZ, you're starting to worry me.  :-D

[PZ]

 >:D 

[Binnatics]

Indeed, I'm afraid you go nuts on this prune 'n raisin thing

[PZ]

 

[fragger]

lol Binn

Are avalanches a useful game mechanic (in the right conditions) like fire has been in the other FC games or are they only triggered on special occasions with the intent of killing off your character?

I wish they could be triggered, but no. There's only the single scripted one, which takes place during the introductory part of the game.

Pushing the boundaries #2:

Once again I had a go at seeing how close to the edge of the map I could get in a gyro. I actually thought I was in with a chance here:

[smg id=7677 align=center width=600]

Until I landed, got out and tried to walk up there. This is very close to the place where Longinus sends you on the mission into the Himalayas, so I'm assuming that the path you can just make out halfway up the mountain on the right is the one the Sherpa takes you up - even though you don't see that happen. There is a small structure up there which led me to think that maybe I could walk up there, but as you can see I got the "Out of bounds" warning when I tried.

[PZ]

Nice w@&k, fragger - the experimenting potential seems quite good.  Can't wait for serious modding

[Dweller_Benthos]

Found out where the trader Sherpa camps out:

[fragger]

I don't suppose you could pinch the gear out of his pack?

[nexor]

Nope, once his vulture bait he's like any other dead person
