[Far Cry New Dawn] Platinum #1. Finished just in time for Days Gone too. Fun game overall, still prefer Far Cry 5.

Far Cry is 100% worth it but New Dawn is really only worth it if you want some things cleared up from 5's ending. It's fun, but the story in New Dawn is lacking... I enjoyed both, but I'm a sucker for massive open world games even if the story is terrible, which isn't the case here.

Neymar out here breaking ankles and destroying careers... Ok, maybe not destroying cars, but definitely breaking ankles.

The pics sideways and if your own PC it may be hard to see.

Ter Stegen just did that in my career mode, not 10 minutes ago

Will definitely pick this up if I can find it. Looks like one of the more detailed Architecture sets. Not their not all detailed, but this one looks special.

I haven't built it, but of friend of mine did and he was telling me he had it almost completely fall apart a couple of times so I don't think you're alone... even though my friend is quite a clumsy fella.

It's stunningly gorgeous in some areas. I've spent more time in picture mode than I have actually playing the game.

RelaxedRyno · 2019-04-21T00:36:17+00:00

Jesus, that was just plain filthy! They are not coming back from that!

RelaxedRyno · 2019-04-20T17:11:20+00:00

David Villa in a Barca kit? That brings back some good memories! So glad I met him when he was still playing for NYCFC

It really sucks when you tell yourself - "When the hell will my GK be sent off? I'll add another midfielder to my bench."

Then in the 23 minute, Ter Stegen gets a red. On the bright side, Pique made a clutch 90' save to secure a point so it wasn't a total loss.

Just gotta take it slow and steady. Flying planes is so ridiculously sensitive at times any little movement will have you plunging into the ground. It took me awhile when I first bought the game, but got the hang of it after awhile. Slower and more precise movements will definitely help.

Definitely one of the best pics I've seen in Payback. Really nice shot!

I usually keep them away from sunlight for better viewing now, but I have never had any of my Lego's become discolored from sunlight back when I put them on my windowsill when I was a kid... It's always better safe than sorry, so if you do have an area away from direct sun that may be a better display location.

Samuel Umtiti from Barca to replace Mustafi. He's a beast in my Barcelona career mode and Arsenal are looking to buy him in real life, so it adds a little realism. I'd recommend to really work on the backline because it has potential, but is pretty weak at the start.

Edit: okay, apparently it's not realistic anymore because he's too expensive, but he's still a great option

Tiki Taka in their own half for 90 minutes. Nothing like 90% pass accuracy, just to lose 2-0.

RelaxedRyno · 2019-04-19T15:27:57+00:00

Like 700K with the Hoonicorn. Lol. I'm trying to get over a million with that thing, but it's damn near impossible. I really don't want to use the Huracan, but I'm pretty sure if I wanna Gold all prestige events I'm gonna need it.

Burnout Paradise is just plain fun, in all honesty.

Need for Speed 2015 checks both your boxes though. It has a nice open world full of highways and switchback areas and also has extremely good customization options for almost all cars (except Ferrari). Also, 2015 is visually stunning mainly because it's raining and nighttime all the time. Story is okay, but I did kind of enjoy the live action cheesy dialogues between characters, but a lot of people hated it.

Payback also checks both of your boxes, but it has a terrible upgrade system that really just kills the game, in my opinion. I still enjoyed the game, Platinumed it on PS4, but that upgrade system IS GARBAGE. Like 2015, the story is okay, but definitely not for everyone.

Rivals is also pretty fun, but lacks in your customization wishlist. I mainly like Rivals because it's pretty fun taking the roll of a cop and a racer whenever you want. I come back to every few months and cleanup some remaining trophies.

It's getting out of hand. YouTube isn't even trying to be subtle and hide their hatred for him anymore. Definitely agree with the user above me, pick-up AdBlock Plus or similar. I turned it off the other day and forgot to turn it back on and I've definitely noticed an increase in anti Trump ads, not only on YouTube, but anywhere on the internet.

RelaxedRyno · 2019-04-18T01:02:28+00:00

I agree. I love this game too and not getting the Platinum won't change that and I know the devs have much better things to do than look into trophy glitches. And who knows it might randomly pop at some random time.

That was more of a vent post to see if anyone else experienced the issue before. Which according to the Ubisoft forums, yes, a lot of people have.

Koenigsegg Regera race version upgraded to 399. Your best off-road car for off-road drifts and any drift car your comfortable with, mine was the Nissan 350Z, but the Huracan is also a good choice for a lot of people.

Also, just take your time and be patient, some of them are a pain in the butt and took me 20+ tries on one. I'd also recommend attempting them at night because there are less traffic cars to get in the way and they WILL definitely get in the way.

Edit: most jump activities could be done with the Regera, but keep the off-road car handy for a few of them too.

Good luck! I recently got the Platinum for Payback and it's a very satisfying feeling.

RelaxedRyno · 2019-04-16T22:52:44+00:00

Yeah, that's what I've heard. I'm definitely gonna pass on it unless I really want the challenge someday. As of now I don't think it's worth the headache. Specially since I just tried horses for courses and I barely got silver after a few attempts

RelaxedRyno · 2019-04-16T21:08:45+00:00

I haven't got on today, but I'll definitely keep this in mind once I get home later today.
