it’s wildly amusing go anywhere do
anything sequel by Swedish developer
Avalanche Studios and I das Interactive
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be taking a look at the 7 things you
should know about Just Cause 2 number
one the plot the game once again centers
on the exploits of CIA black ops agent
Rico Rodriguez this time Rico is off to
find his friend and mentor who has gone
rogue and in the process take down a
ruthless dictator who controls the
island of Pinal with an iron fist
number 2 the setting unlike the previous
title you will no longer be visiting a
real-world locale instead we’ll explore
the large fictional island of the now
located somewhere between southeastern
Asia and Australia despite this the game
does take it’s visual cues from the
likes of New Zealand and Hawaii number 3
gameplay like before you will be given a
vast sandbox environment to play it as
such you will be free to roam and tackle
the game’s storyline whenever it suits
you
resulting in a 30 to 40 hour GTA style
romp self-amusement and destruction
however to progress through the story
you will need to either destroy or
liberate designated targets to earn the
points and funds necessary to progress
to the next mission and purchase
upgrades number 4 the enemy
unlike the previous entry enemies will
now use the environment to their
advantage
so while enemies used to be dim-witted
the improved AI enemies take cover adapt
to moving objects and feature an
adaptive difficult in mechanic’s as a
result enemies will learn and get
smarter as you advance through the game
number five special tools
Just Cause 2 separates itself from the
competition through its new focus on
special tools which give your character
superhero-like abilities these include
the dual grappling hook and reloadable
stunt parachute like Spider Man the dual
grappling hook gives Rico the ability to
tether objects together or grapple
between surfaces increasingly there are
no limitations to what can be tethered
and you can use the tool to subdue
enemies in any way imaginable likewise
the stunt parachute can be used as much
as you like
when leaping from high objects merging
the two special tools will allow you to
perform a slingshot maneuver in which
you can scale portions of the map number
6 weapons
players will have access to an array of
new and exciting weapons
these include laser-guided rocket
launcher a one-handed grenade launcher
remote-detonated c4 and detachable
mounted mini guns number 7 the vehicles
a much greater amount of attention that
has been given to your method of
transportation as a result vehicles are
much more distinguishable in terms of
handling and you must take the terrain
into consideration as now off-road
situations call for a vehicle that’s up
to the challenge
vehicles can still be commandeered or
ordered via helicopter from your arms
supplier Plus and a first for the
franchise they will be subject to a
real-time deform system as bumps and
crashes will cause your ride to crush
and break apart no game provides as much
of a riot and delicious
destructor time than Just Cause two as a
result it has already been hailed as the
best and most zany sandbox are available
this generation
