Everything about this game goes hard

This is it. Runs smooth as butter on oil based computers.

Can't perform change certain keybinds, even if they alreay have several actions binded to them.
Can't change the god awful mouse controlled crane/boom arms to anything else like numpads.

- cant run this on a 4090 | r9
- graphically looks like a game from 10 years ago
- missing content that Cities 1 excelled on
- the devs trying to get away with calling this game a true next gen game needs a full medical checkup
- i will still play this game, but i wont enjoy it

when the

im biased

My feelings are a bit mixed. One part of me loves Just Cause and the havoc within it, and one part is telling me it's not as good as it should be.

Now alot of the gameplay is repetitive, but atleast it's repetitive in an open way because of the free choice of approach. I don't find the story as catchy as other games around, but I really never were a groundbreaking fan of JC2 story either. (And they do feel a bit like; Shoot that, Blow that, Escort this, Find that >Repeat>)

On my part, there is nothing noticeably bad about the performance as it run buttersmooth at 60-80fps at ultra. But the quality on the other hand is a bit disappointing as the system req. are sky-high and the graphics and feel of it is more of a common kind.

Quick summary:
+ Explosions
+ Sandbox
+ Enjoyable destructions
+ Massive open-world
+ Great freedom of approach

- Repetitive objectives/missons
- Horrible camera controls (sometimes)
- Bad AA
- No multi-GPU support

Runs great with no problems at my part.
SSD, win 8, 16GB, i7 4770k @4.2ghz, GTX 970 G1 Gaming 3.5gb (Disabled SLI)

Lots of bugs, not very optimised, hard to craft, easy to die.
Expect to be stuck with a headache.

Great game on both singleplayer and co-op.
Enjoyable for most people amused by zombie slaughter and time wasting.

No crashes so far, fps from 40-60 on my GTX 770 all though it never goes below 30.
A few bugs here and there, but nothing too serious.

Where to start?

The game is running smoothly, but the amount of bugs is too damn high.
Thought you could go in a door without going back out to go back in again? Think again.
Thought you could take a shortcut? Think again.
It may have lots of places to go, but it has no freedom to let you choose the path to the destination.

Its a really bad port, got slow control reaction and ain't got in-game configuration for ♥♥♥♥.
Also, the fact that u attack, climb, jump, talk, interact, open doors and pick up stuff with the same key is just such a horrible idea it hurts.

Just in the beginning, I saw flying water in the camps.
When i was supposed to "dodge" a dragons attack, all i had to do was run straight.
In the prison, this guy can't beat for ♥♥♥♥, his fists got a 90% miss chance.
Stealth? What a joke.

People recommending this for skyrim players, stop. pls
