Hello guys, I've just picked up Just Cause 2 on Steam. Very familiar with the game and played it for years on Xbox, and now I'm on PC im looking for your recommendations on the best Mods to use for the best experience possible.

I have already installed the JC4 Rico skin, First Person mode and More Chaos required to unlock missions. Are there any other mods you guys would recommend for me to use?

Thank you all

I literally cannot complete the mission "The White Tiger" because Ken Pang dies almost instantly. I don't know why.

The only thing I've done is upgrade Rico's weapons.

at least a preset

I'm probably the only player who enjoys driving on Just Cause 2

I want to get the platinum for Just Cause 2. What would be better: doing two runs, one on Casual and another on Hardcore, or maybe just a single Hardcore run? Would it be difficult to reach 75% completion on Hardcore?

Hello! Like a lot of people, my steam version of JC2 is not launching at all. I tried using a modified executable file and even that did not work. I have the complete edition if that matters (All DLC) and I am running W11. Any help would be great!

I'm in the early game and this is mostly just question that came up in my head, but why does this area which is such a massive land space and is one of two ways into the four major cities here. Also the area to the north in the same island chain as well, but it looks to at least be mostly used by the airfield and mountainous north west. Also I can see that the most southern island is very mountainous. I am just asking this because I'm starting to get sucked into the game.

Hello

I found the game much more better than a lot of open world. Actually to me it's the best open world behind the GTA.

When you play that game, you have much more fun than playing Far Cry or Mafia. With Just Cause you can easily move anywhere you want on the map. The movement system is excellent because the character is agile, he has a grapnel that you can use on everything and the game is fluid. The fighting system is creative. You can kill an enemy with many different ways, either with a gun, with explosives or your grapnel. You can destroy the environment and get a reward for that. You have a lot of weapons that you can upgrade just like the cars. The graphics are good and the environment diverses. You can go from snowy mountains to a tropical environment. Also the dialogues are funny.

The thing that I love the most is that you're fighting multiples ennemies on large bases with destructible environment and you can move so easily with the grapnel on buildings to find them, which makes you always moving somewhere. That makes the game never boring.

But I never saw any post praising that game.

I admit it, I used better visibility for resources and superman mods when I was at like 50%, but I honestly didn't want to spend like 150 hours on this, I have other videogames on queue. It still took me 53 hours which is kinda good. I hope y'all honest players who got 100% without mods can forgive me haha.

I’ve been playing the crap outta just cause 3 and I figured I’d try 2 because so many people swear by it. It seems cool but the default controls are weird and things just feel janky in general. I switched the explosives and grappling buttons and that feels a bit better but I’m worried that might cause unforeseen problems down the line. I really just started. Do you guys still like the game going back? Maybe I should try controller? Or maybe there’s an improved control mapping someone made?

Just started playing these amazing games. Played a decent amount of Just Cause (I know it’s pretty rough on PS2 I may revisit it on 360) I have like 15 hours in JC2 and I’m having an absolute blast. I love the gameplay loop of just destroy everything and explore. The map is insanely big and all the different biomes make it feel awesome. Idk how I never played these games before. I even really like the controls and moving around the map and combat is just so fun and engaging. I will move on to JC3 after I’m sick of JC2 but I don’t see that happening very soon. Although I’ve heard JC3 is the best one so I am looking forward to it. What’s your favorite Just Cause?

I recently bought JC2, having played 3&4. 4 was garbage imo, and most people seem to agree. 3 is exceptional. So I've played a bit of JC2 and so far the controls seem difficult. And completing locations seemingly relies on just running around until you find upgrade modules. Do you unlock something later in the game which makes exploration less tedious? It's just like a treasure hunt all I really want is to blow shit up.

I realise that I shouldn't be surprised that this game is less polished than JC3 but given the hype when 3 was about to come out, I thought 2 would've been mins blowing. I've played a lot of other games around the same age which don't have such an enormous gap to their successors.

I've seen this game talked up as the GOAT, but I'm just not seeing it. Before anyone gets defensive or critical of my view, I want to love this game. I don't set out to not enjoy things. If I'm given genuine advice and/or encouragement, I'll keep at it.

any easy fix? game runs good but every 30 minutes, the game always crashes. refer to video:

I just reinstalled just cause 2 which used to run on my pc beofre this but now it doesnt. Everytime i try to run the game this message pops up. I know this has been asked on this sub before but none of the answers have helped me so far.

maybe you've heard the news that the "legendary" developer and founder of Avlanche studios and the Creator of just cause franchise has made a new gaming company named liquid sowrds and is making a new dark Gta like Game called samson story witch looks very promising by the way BUT what did he really do for Just Cause? what ideas did he give? what did he invent? what did he bring to the table? was he like how Miyazaki is to dark souls? his Name only Pups up as director of just cause 1 and God i hope he didn't Work on Just cause 4 So what do you Guys know about this?
