listening to it now, just went past that point :D

[llx Todd xll]

That is a large number

[MonkeyBanana]

But I'll be getting every one of them!

[Blitzsniiper]

My God! This really is a massive game!

[Rico Rodriguez (Cudel)]

omg AWESOME but what are theese items ? i dont get it ??? are they like the packages from GTASA or the Pigons from GTAIV or else ?

[MonkeyBanana]

Yes they are collectables and maybe gun upgrades or something

[jonny-boy1995]

the collectibles are crates that contain black market items it tells you in one of the videos ill see if i can find the one:)

[mycoldman]

Armor parts, vehicle parts, cash... to name but a few.

There's a lot out there to find - and the best part is all of them are usable to upgrade and increase your awesome on the island.

i love to upgrade my awsome ;) my awesome is awesome

[gamer1093]

niiice :p Will there be a guide for finding all the parts in the guide book?:confused:

[hotduk]

I'm sure they'll be in the guide. But I'm just going to stick to the blinking icon to tell me when I'm close. I like to hunt for these things.

[Maverick265]

But I'll be getting every one of them!

How long do you think that is going to take you? You may never find out...What would happen if there was one you couldn't find?

Ah.. Interesting. *evil wizard grin* :D

Could you delve deeper into this though, mycoldman..?

Like.. what do you do with these vehicle parts.. do you have to go somewhere special in the game world in order to put them on your vehicles? are each part specific to one type of vehicle? :thumb:

[gamer1093]

true thats fun, but... you might not find very good hidden special parts if dont use a guide:rolleyes:

[Enkeixpress]

Okay mycoldman.. I'll take it that you are not at liberty to discuss those features with us, lol :D

[chip5541]

yes but will there be 3000 trophies? :nut:

[Blitzsniiper]

Question. If you get a collectable for a vehicle or weapon, will it stay on it forever, even if you get a new one air dropped in from the black market?

[Enkeixpress]

.. Gotta' admit.. Just thinking about the upgrades in general makes my heart race like craZy!! :)

.. Like, what if we're able to upgrade the engine & weapons guidance systems on one of our planes.. & we'd go & test 'em out in the field or sea.. The thought of it just amazes me.. :D

Ahh this game is flipping INSANE!! :nut: :nut: :nut: I already Love it! :D

What would happen if there was one you couldn't find?

Even though it would still take long to find, luckily the flashing indicator will help a lot ;)

Question. If you get a collectable for a vehicle or weapon, will it stay on it forever, even if you get a new one air dropped in from the black market?

Yes the Black Market Weapons once upgraded will always stay upgraded, regardless how many you order :)

[Blitzsniiper]

Yes the Black Market Weapons once upgraded will always stay upgraded, regardless how many you order :)

OMG YES!!! WOOOHOOO!!!! Upgraded forever .... :flowers: This game is insane!!! I'm even more excited now!!!!!!!!

[Enkeixpress]

Yes the Black Market Weapons once upgraded will always stay upgraded, regardless how many you order :)

Soo.. You are not able to remove the upgrades? Hmm, Well that disappoints me.. I was hoping to be able to test out each vehicle with & without their upgrades just to see what improves.. and the differences between 'em..

But ah, It'll have to do, I can still do what I wanted though haha!.. I'll just to test stuff before I make the upgrades.. that's all. :):thumb:

[NEREVAR117]

Oh wow, there are upgrades in the game?!?! Wicked! Upgrades add so much replayability.

Eidos, great job. :D

[HHDnBKing!]

Soo.. You are not able to remove the upgrades?

Wow wow wow, I never said that because that part I do not know, I was just answering the fact that the Black Market Weapons will always stay upgraded once upgraded, I'm not sure whether or not you can remove upgrades.

there the shiny box at the very beginning and at either 2:20 or 2:40 justbefore he jumps off the platform thing

[-->Powersystem<--]

3000 parts =awesome =long time to play

[JustCause.i.can]

Mycoldman is back wooo and on my thread ahahaha

[Liberaliter]

I can't wait to find it all :D I hope JC2 has more interesting things to find/do then JC1.

[natsamson]

The 3000 pieces is as some people have said, Upgrade Parts as shown in Video and like JC1 were you find parts and collect them, but on this game, you exchange them for Weapon Upgrades. Now I still dont know what they mean by weapon upgrades on the black market, is it scopes, new weapons of course, but are there scopes n stuff.

[R Belloq]

I'm scared... this hype is surprisingly similar to the hype Mercenaries 2 experienced when it was revealed that upgrade boxes were spread around the island... However it ended up that you had to reach benchmark amounts to unlock new vehicles, as apposed to actually upgrading pre-existing vehicles...

I hope this turns out to be better...

[wargamer1579]

that is cool i hope you can ride cars into the sea and still drive! that would be a water car!!

The best thing is, they do really exist this is no photoshop!!

[R Belloq]

so now that we've had the demo... what is to be said about the upgrades...?

[hank447]

there are upgrades in the demo that you can buy when you order something from the black market...

[romcombo]

awesome

[ManScuz]

This game is going to be epic! I keep playing the demo on both the PS3 and my PC and I just get more amazed every game!

The amount of detail in this game is mind blowing.

[R Belloq]

what i meant was... the way it is organized just seems like boosts in speed and power and such, not like putting a machine gun on the hood of a car...
