@carlos707: On the masks: if you're near one, a blue shaded area pops up on your mini-map, and some really creepy jungly music plays when you are close to the mask within the blue shaded zone. And you can buy maps of their locations from any vendor in the "maps" section of the store. With all the rupees this game throws at you, may as well use them.
@justkamtoo: I caved and grabbed the season pass today (MSFT gave me $32 in rebates from all the games I've purchased this month...ouch). I've now spent about 15-20 hours in Kyrat and already know I want to spend lots more...especially if there are going to be yetis.
This game is incredible. First, it's gorgeous. Second, there are so many options! Here's a bunch of enemies - you figure out how to kill them. Sneak around and take them out one by one? Sure! Have a tiger or leopard do the dirty work for you while you watch from the corner? Can do! Ride in on an elephant, guns blazing? Why not?
Some other first thoughts:
-the gyrocopter is amazing...as are the other methods of getting around Kyrat.
-did I mention it's gorgeous? Stunningly so...
-Honey badgers are almost as terrifying as tigers and both pale in comparison to rhinos.
-Snakes and eagles...if one isn't biting me from below, the other is dive-bombing me from above.
Who else has spent some time in Kyrat? Thoughts? Impressions?
So....what does everyone think so far? In my 4 matches this morning, we hunters have only succeeded in killing the monster once (and it was clear he was afk, he didn't move from the start). It's pretty, if nothing else. Other people's thoughts?
