Theoretically, this is absolutely possible. If you slap some remote C4 charges on the back of a truck, you've got a mobile explosive. If you then drive that truck at full speed off a cliff that is directly above an enemy base, you've got an airstrike. If you've got a parachute or some squirrelly sort of suit, you've got an escape method. You're big red button can do the rest. It would be super sweet to flip the switch while falling through the air, but we're pretty sure the car will explode on impact regardless. This would be an absolutely brilliant way to take out a passing convoy--even to just park a car on a cliffside, kick it off and light it up ten feet above the ground, showering them with car parts and fire, before raining lead upon them all in equal measure. A bit redundant perhaps, but we'd like to think we're being "thorough."
5. Trip Out In Shangri-La
How else will we unwind from a day of elephant rampages and excessive car stunts? Okay, perhaps 'unwind' is the wrong word. Shangri-La is just as likely to catch you off guard visually as it is physically. Look forward to some magical views, and also a host of mythical tribesman meaning to mess you up. These segments are all about acting out the fiction of Kyrat's most legendary warrior, giving us an element of fantasy we don't usually see in modern shooters. Shangri La will only be a part of your Far Cry 4 experience if you go looking for it. It's a good thing that the ancient warrior we'll be playing as has a pet White Tiger who eats evil for breakfast.
4. Climb The Tallest Mountain Possible
After battling ancient evil as a famous Kyrat native, we'll probably feel like writing a legend of our own. Given the opportunity, reaching the highest point of elevation on a map is something we do in every game. There's something about looking down on vast game world that is at once surreal and totally freeing. We don't need the trophy or achievement. This is a personal test of virtual endurance and literal patience. Heck--it'll be easy if we know we've got a nest of no-good, mountainside squatters waiting for us at the top. No better way to break in the holiday spirit than to...
Real Science Magazine called James' addiction to video games "sexually attractive." He also worked really hard and got really lucky in college and earned some awards for acting, improv and stand-up, but nobody cares about that out here in LA. So... He's starting over fresh, performing when He can. His profile picture features James as Serbian, vampire comic Dorde Mehailo with His anonymous Brother and Uncle at the Nerdmelt Showroom in West Hollywood. In James' spare time, he engages in acting, writing, athletics, hydration, hours of great pondering and generally wishing you'd like him.
