sports_esports Gameplay & Mechanics
Companions/Followers
  • Rebel Fighters (Army of Liberation): As Rico liberates settlements and military bases, AI-controlled rebel fighters will spawn and engage Di Ravello's forces. They act independently but contribute to the chaotic battles and can provide covering fire or draw enemy attention. Rico can sometimes find rebel squads to assist in specific encounters, but he cannot directly command them.
    Human (AI-Controlled Rebels)
  • Mission-Specific Allies (Mario, Dimah, Sheldon, Annika): Key story characters like Mario Frigo, Dimah al-Masri, Tom Sheldon, and Annika Svensson (in DLC) will accompany or assist Rico during specific story missions or provide objectives and intel. They are not persistent controllable companions but play roles in dedicated mission sequences.
    Human (Key NPCs)
  • Rebel Drop Pilots (Implied): Though not visible companions in the traditional sense, pilots from the rebellion deliver requested vehicles, weapons, and gear to Rico's location via Rebel Drops (supply drops). Their efficiency and the range of available items can be improved by collecting Vintage Parts.
    Human (AI-Controlled Rebels)
  • Squad Mates: As an MMO, the game is built around cooperative play. Players can form squads to tackle narrative missions, explore the open world, and participate in large-scale raids together.
    Human (Player)

  • Daredevil Jumps: Specific ramps or locations designed for performing vehicle jumps. Completing all 30 Daredevil Jumps is required for an achievement/trophy.
  • Vintage Parts: Collectible parts for various weapons and vehicles, found by searching specific locations marked on the map (often after liberating areas or finding intel). Collecting all parts for an item unlocks it for Rebel Drops. There are 79 unique items to collect parts for (weapons, land vehicles, sea vehicles, air vehicles).
  • Rebel Shrines (Virgin Mary Shrines): Small shrines dedicated to the Virgin Mary, scattered across Medici. Lighting all 49 shrines is part of a side activity and unlocks an achievement/trophy.
  • Tomb Raider Relics (Easter Egg - from 'Lost Explorer' mission): Specific relics found during 'The Lost Explorer' side mission series, referencing the Tomb Raider franchise.
  • Hidden Lore: Found through exploration in the ruins of Seoul. These items piece together the story of the apocalyptic 'Event' and the various factions.

  • Gear Mods (Defensive): While not visible armor, certain Gear Mods can enhance Rico's resilience, such as those that increase his resistance to damage or improve health regeneration, effectively acting as an armor system.
  • Bavarium Wingsuit (Sky Fortress DLC): The Bavarium Wingsuit itself offers no direct damage resistance but provides enhanced mobility and offensive capabilities which contribute to survivability by allowing Rico to evade attacks and quickly dispatch enemies. It's more of an offensive/traversal tool.
  • Mech Armor (Mech Land Assault DLC): When piloting Mechs in the 'Mech Land Assault' DLC, the Mech itself provides significant protection and firepower. The Mech acts as Rico's temporary armor and weapon platform.
  • Customizable Armor Sets: Players can find, craft, and upgrade a variety of armor sets. Customization includes color palettes, insignias, and cybernetic augmentations. Gear provides both cosmetic and gameplay-affecting stat bonuses.
Outfits/Customization
  • Rico's Default Outfit: Rico's iconic attire, typically a leather jacket, jeans, and boots. The base game does not feature extensive customization options for this outfit itself, beyond it getting progressively more worn as he takes damage (cosmetic effect).
  • DLC & Special Edition Skins (Wingsuit & Parachute): Various DLC packs (e.g., 'Kousavá KēRaras • Stealth Wingsuit & Parachute Skin') and special editions (like the Day One Edition's Weaponized Vehicle Pack which might include themed skins) provided cosmetic skins for Rico's wingsuit and parachute, allowing for visual personalization of these traversal tools.
  • Bavarium Wingsuit (Sky Fortress DLC): A unique, jet-powered and weaponized wingsuit acquired in the 'Sky Fortress' DLC. It has a distinct appearance and functionality, effectively acting as a new 'outfit' for aerial traversal and combat.

info_outline Other Game Notes
  • Official PC system requirements for 'Just Cause 3' (released in 2015). An SSD is recommended for better loading times. These requirements reflect hardware from that era and are modest by today's standards.
  • Laptop Performance Note: Just Cause 3, with its large open world and emphasis on physics-based destruction, can still be somewhat demanding, especially during intense chaotic sequences. For a good laptop experience, a gaming laptop with a dedicated GPU from its release era or newer is recommended. Laptop GPUs and CPUs perform differently than desktop equivalents. **Performance can vary based on the specific laptop model's TGP, cooling, and overall system configuration.**
  • Laptop Consideration: G P U T G P Impact: While less of a factor than with modern high-wattage GPUs, ensuring the laptop GPU receives adequate power for its class is still important.
  • Laptop Consideration: Advanced Cooling Thermals: Good cooling helps maintain consistent performance, especially in a game known for numerous explosions and physics calculations that can tax the system.
  • Laptop Consideration: C P U Performance Sustain: A capable mobile CPU is needed to handle the open-world streaming and physics calculations without significant bottlenecks.
  • Laptop Consideration: R A M Configuration Speed: 8GB in dual-channel is recommended. While the game might run on 6GB, 8GB provides a much smoother experience.
  • Laptop Consideration: Display Panel G P U Pairing: Most laptops aiming for these specs will target 1080p. The GPU should be sufficient for this resolution at desired settings.
  • Laptop Consideration: Driver Updates O S Optimization: Using reasonably up-to-date GPU drivers and a well-maintained OS is beneficial for stability.
  • Optimization Detail: A P I Choice: The game primarily uses DirectX 11.
  • Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact: Resolution, Texture Quality, Shadow Quality, LOD Detail, Water Quality, Anti-Aliasing, and Effects Quality (especially particles and explosions) significantly impact performance.
  • Game Name: Just Cause 3
  • SPECULATIVE PC SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS. As official specs were not provided, these are hypothetical projections for a next-generation MMO built on Unreal Engine 5.
  • Laptop Performance Note: A title like this would demand a high-performance gaming laptop for the best experience. Actual performance would vary significantly based on the final game's optimization and the laptop's specific hardware configuration.
  • Laptop Consideration: G P U T G P: Maximum TGP for the laptop's GPU would be essential to handle advanced features like real-time ray tracing and the massive scale of MMO raids.
  • Laptop Consideration: Cooling Thermals: The game's visually rich world and high entity count will require a laptop with a cutting-edge cooling solution to prevent thermal throttling.
  • Laptop Consideration: C P U Power Limits: A powerful multi-core mobile CPU will be critical for handling the large number of players, AI enemies, physics, and ensuring a smooth experience in large-scale battles.
  • Laptop Consideration: M U X Switch Optimus: A MUX switch or NVIDIA Advanced Optimus would be a critical feature for reducing latency and ensuring the best possible performance in a tactical shooter.
  • Game Name: Cinder City
build Optimization Details
  • A P I Choice: The game primarily uses DirectX 11.
  • Key Settings Impact: Resolution, Texture Quality, Shadow Quality, LOD Detail, Water Quality, Anti-Aliasing, and Effects Quality (especially particles and explosions) significantly impact performance.

laptop Laptop Considerations
  • G P U T G P Impact: While less of a factor than with modern high-wattage GPUs, ensuring the laptop GPU receives adequate power for its class is still important.
  • Advanced Cooling Thermals: Good cooling helps maintain consistent performance, especially in a game known for numerous explosions and physics calculations that can tax the system.
  • C P U Performance Sustain: A capable mobile CPU is needed to handle the open-world streaming and physics calculations without significant bottlenecks.
  • R A M Configuration Speed: 8GB in dual-channel is recommended. While the game might run on 6GB, 8GB provides a much smoother experience.
  • Display Panel G P U Pairing: Most laptops aiming for these specs will target 1080p. The GPU should be sufficient for this resolution at desired settings.
  • Driver Updates O S Optimization: Using reasonably up-to-date GPU drivers and a well-maintained OS is beneficial for stability.
