Smile Loads of chaos and money on Hardcore

Hi all,

I'm sure we've all seen the JC2 screenshots and Youtube vids of people mastering the game with 100%, loads of money and chaos, etc. Does anyone know whether that's actually possible (seeing as the game has been out, what, less than a month)

I'm playing on casual and I've got around 10% done and 100k chaos and money.

So am I just really bad, or are they just really dedicated? (or are they using modded and hacked game saves, AR, cheats...?)

JJ

Well, I am playing on casual too and have about 250K of both so it could be possible that they are just playing alot. I have only had this game for about 5 days(rental).

I've completed just about everything and have 98.62% completion, and right now, I'm sitting on just over 9 million dollars. The secret to getting large amounts of money is to complete everything while keeping spending on the black market to a minimum.

I was actually surprised at how easily I beat the story mode on hardcore. The dodge maneuver does wonders on hardcore. I finished it in under 6 hours.

I tried that and it works, but I like to do alot of weapons testing and that gets expensive. It would be nice if the agency recieved more funds (cheat codes) so Rico could draw from a larger expense account (Unlimited ammo from the U.S. aka Uncle Square Enix)

Casual is more fun for me because I can enjoy the game, rather than play incredibly great or something.

Yeah, I know what you mean EISock
And does anyone know if dodge will help on levels other than Hardcore? I have a good feeling about this, since BreatheCody says it does wonders on Hardcore.

I love hardcore but respect the casual players, to each our own.

One good thing to remember is have a few locations your familiar with like some weapon crate locations and most definitely a C-4 spawn location. And use extraction to those locations to resupply ,this will save you lots of cash in the long run.

Use these areas often you'll find that you really only need the blackmarket to quick travel and upgrade your stuff.

There's weapon crates for all weapons (except for the DLC weapons) which is a major bummer.

So far I've not spent 1 single Panau dollar on the BM , I was gonna try for a 100% completion without spending a dime on the BM , but my quest will die after the 29th I don't think I'll be able to resist not ordering the parachute thrusters.


My major problem or maybe its not a problem is I get distracted at the air port for 3 hours tethering planes in all kinds of ways, it's easy to get lost in the game and not do anything to wards your %% percentage.

I tried to parachute completely across the map (VERY HARD) and play frogger by jumping from car to car , try to do it with at least a 100 car minimum.

There's so many mini games you can come up with in this game it's what I love about it.
