- Have You Played the Just Cause 2 multiplayer mod? - 17 May 2019
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. When Graham asked if you’d played Just Cause 2 , he (correctly) spent most of his time praising the extent of its wanton destruction. Then he claimed that the multiplayer mod “lets you wreak the same havoc and much more in huge multiplayer servers.” I don’t think he realises how right he was. (more…)

- Just Cause 2's air propulsion gun - 24 February 2016
WHY I LOVE In Why I Love , PC Gamer writers pick an aspect of PC gaming that they love and write about why it's brilliant. Today, Phil's blown away by JC2's best weapon. I was disappointed with Just Cause 3 for many of the same reasons that Andy outlined our 67% review . It s an incredibly repetitive, grindy experience that turns chaotic action into a chore. Overthrowing evil dictators should only feel like a job if it s your actual job. But worse than the failings of JC3 s progression systems is how unimaginative its tools are. There are a few exceptions. There s the wingsuit, which is brilliant. There are the tethers, which are ridiculous. There s the opportunity to upgrade your infinite C4 into a rocket-powered physics toy, which is an idea of unparalleled genius. Elsewhere, though, it s all pretty standard. In the context of an absurd action sandbox, the game s many assault rifles f…
- Just Cause 3 Multiplayer Mod In The Works - 4 January 2016
When I received definitive confirmation that Just Cause 3 wouldn’t have any multiplayer support out of the box, I felt like I’d been punched in the gut. If memory serves, I was talking to one of the game’s producers at the time so it’s entirely possible that I left the room wincing, with a wounded expression on my face. Later in the day, when I’d recovered, Avalanche told me that their dedication to modding support would allow for all manner of enjoyable shenanigans and, sure enough, the team behind the Just Cause 2 multiplayer mod have released the first footage of Just Cause 3 Multiplayer . Delicious. …

- Have You Played Just Cause 2? - 27 November 2015
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game recommendations. One a day, every day of the year, perhaps for all time. Just Cause 2 doesn’t have a great mission in its entire running length, although it has some pretty OK ones. What it does have is a beautiful, diverse open world in which to wreak havoc of the most over the top kind, with land, sea and air vehicles, a re-usable parachute and a grappling hook. …
- Just Cause 2 multiplayer mod gets achievements, lets you make NPCs - 10 November 2015
Remember that Just Cause 2 multiplayer mod? You know, the one we made our Mod of the Week back in September 2013 ? Do you go on to remember that it received a beta update recently that added Steam achievements, and assorted other stuff? My, you have a fantastic memory. Er...remember when I lent you twenty quid? Thanks muchly. I have some fuel for future memories in the form of hot news—hot news that the aforementioned update releases tomorrow for everybody. Hooray! From tomorrow, that brill multiplayer mod will come with Steam achievements, plus a few extra, equally exciting features. Feature The First: you'll be able to make your own NPCs, and not by shoving two NPCs together until a baby appears. (You can just drop them into the world.) You can also display giant text in the game world, Splinter Cell Blacklist-style. I can imagine people having a lot of fun with that one. More d…
- Just Cause 2 Multiplayer Mod Introduces AI Scripting - 13 September 2015
Happy nearly-birthday to the Just Cause 2 multiplayer mod , which came out just about two years ago and has graduated into its old age with a nip and tuck in the form of quite a hefty update which you can check out here . The update, which ticks over into 0.2 , is in public beta at the moment and adds a whole lot of bug fixes and features. But more on that after the jump. …
- Just Cause 2 Multiplayer update adds Steam achievements - 8 September 2015
The Just Cause 2 Multiplayer Mod, which came out nearly two years ago , is getting a big update . The changelog is long, but the most significant additions are Steam achievements, scripting for NPCs, and an overhaul of the main menu. On the achievements side, you've got examples like "Careful Down There", which you get for standing on top of a flying plane for one minute, or "Taxi Service" for... driving people around in a taxi. Example scripts include Wingsuit, Companions, and a minigame called 'Drift!' If you want to try out the public beta of update 0.2, you can opt in via the Betas tab in JC2: Multiplayer's Steam properties menu.

- Just Cause: Grand Theft Auto V Grappling Hook Mod - 26 May 2015
As cool ways to get around go, grappling hooks are up there with skateboards and motorbikes. Unlike boards and bikes, however, the super-rad accidents grappling hooks cause won’t have you lose significant patches of your skin. Not your own, anyway. You can now grapple around San Andreas to your hearts’ content in Just Cause 2 style, swinging to buildings and tying vehicles together, thanks to a mod for Grand Theft Auto V . …
- So Let s Take Our Mind Off Things With Just Cause 3 - 13 February 2015
It’s… a funny old day. Big stuff, big response, not entirely sure how to feel about it all, no clue what happens next. Personally, I’m going to try and take my mind off it. This first glimpse at the don’t worry about a thing mayhem of Just Cause 3 is probably an OK way to do that, for a few seconds at least. …
- Why I Love: the grappling hook - 10 December 2014
Why I Love In Why I Love , PC Gamer writers pick an aspect of PC gaming that they love and write about why it's brilliant. Today, we get into the swing, as Phil explains his love of grappling hooks. If you go back through the Why I Love articles I've written to date— stealth on ships , TF2's Scout or playing Chinese-style opera in Audiosurf—all have, to a greater or lesser extent, been about systems or experiences that change how you traverse through a level. The Scout can double-jump. Ship-based stealth levels are tighter and more claustrophobic than their inevitable "big warehouse" counterpart. Monkey Bee has one of the most distinct middle-sections I've yet to see emerge from Audiosurf's level generator. A satisfying traversal system isn't the only thing I look for in a game, but it is one of a few broad areas that define my taste. If I can move around a game in interesti…
- Just Cause 3 s Probably-Not-Maybe Multiplayer - 18 November 2014
Will Just Cause 3 have multiplayer? Just Cause 2 ‘s wonky-but-ace Multiplayer Mod showed that – surprise surprise – running and driving and flying and grappling-hooking and exploding all around an open world with your chums can be pretty fun. An actual, proper, made-with-access-to-the-source-code multiplayer mode could be something special. But Just Cause 3 won’t have one, Avalanche Studios have said. Probably. At this point of the game’s marketing campaign, it’s hard to tell how much of this is a firm declaration, how much is uncertainty, and how much is The Official Marketing Line. Don’t get your hopes up, in short. But maybe don’t be surprised. Oh, I don’t know! …

- Introducing JetGetters, A Fusion Of Just Cause 2 And BF3 - 14 March 2014
“We are about to reveal a new game!” No Time To Explain dev/burgeoning indie publisher Alex Nichiporchik told me over Skype. Almost reflexively, I braced myself for an excited slurry spew about some crazy new platformer or a zany comedy adventure or an emotional tale that would rock me to my very core. “It’s basically a fusion of Just Cause 2 and Battlefield 3 ,” he proceeded to tell me. “…Oh,” I replied, briefly mistaking a flock of birds fluttering by outside for a car tethered to a plane with a wildman surfing atop it, as I often do. “Go on.” And so he did. Go below to find out about JetGetters ‘ plane-jacking antics, its accompanying Kickstarter (because of course), how TinyBuild hopes to make dogfights more interesting, shifting levels, purposefully limited player counts, and why TinyBuild’s not on board with f…
- The beautiful madness of Just Cause 2: Multiplayer Mod’s construction sandbox - 7 March 2014
At first glance, Freeroam Construction Sandbox seems like any other Just Cause 2: Multiplayer server. Its small series of events fail to impose any meaningful structure, its airport is filled with a constant stream of exploding planes, and its chat is openly and bewilderingly hostile. It's all a ruse. Beneath the surface of the server, a surreal other world exists. Here, all-powerful god-players have shaped the land, utilising limited abilities and low attention spans to conjure a bizarre series of crude settlements and half-finished projects. It's JC2:MP's own private Twilight Zone. If you explore this shadow Panau, you'll see physics-defying structures, complicated aerial transit networks, and boats placed where no boat should ever be. Here's my guide to some of the weirdest landmarks and strangest sights of the FCS server's build world. Airport I start my journey in the island's main…
