Just Cause 2 has had its fair share of titillating promotional materials over the past few months, but the latest piece of marketing for the game -- an interactive trailer -- really goes for broke. It's basically showing off the various options you have when faced with a tricky hostage scenario. Hijack a fighter jet? Storm the area in a Humvee? Ride your parachute in, sneaky-creepy style? All are possible in the trailer, which we've posted after the jump.
However, the trailer's not nearly as sandbox-esque as we expect the game to be. What if, instead of infiltrating the enemy base, we just tethered two fighter jets together using our grappling hook, and then flew around clotheslining unlucky sentries? Yeah, that's a pretty specifically-tailored plan of action, but we're pretty sure that's all we're going to do once we get our hands on the game. Eidos, we expect a revised version of the trailer on our desks by tomorrow morning.
This wouldn't be hard for YouTube to do because they've already done it. If you click on any of the related videos at the very end after this one finishes, it loads up and plays in the same window.
the choices don't feel very meaningful. If the chase sequence is activated no matter which way you approach the level, then who cares what you chose to do? Unless there are rewards for approaching a mission a certain way (like stat boosts or weapon unlocks for doing a mission stealth or not) then there isn't a meaningful choice
just look at infamious for an example of meaningless choices. Good game, fun too, but good vs evil was just there for to make you play it twice :/
if u choose the parachute the second time, what I found interesting was that the "agency" actively sent a copter to rescue you.. I dunno though if it is automatic or something you trigger but that's a very cool feature in a sandbox game when you think about it..
