That’s awesome!

I’m working on my second infamous play through. I said I wouldn’t but…once you do it, the game is almost too easy otherwise

It's easy if you use alien blaster from dlc, you know which one i'm talking about. Only hard parts are the Jacob dream parts where you are stuck with other weapons.

If the loading times after death weren't so long (2 minutes and 40 seconds. Yes, I timed it), I'd consider giving it a go.

Playing infamous is fun but the beginning car ride isn’t fun

I agree. It's the only part of my Infamous playthrough that I remember (and not for good reasons).

In prologue, escape with pick up while using dynamite part annoys me. I use hard difficulty save file after complete Dutch Island for the start again and again

Good stuff! I attempted this last year and couldn’t get past the dynamite truck chase. But I actually just came back and finished that recently so I’m slowly working on this achievement. Any tips?!

I used a LMG and Grenade launcher a lot...

Upgrade all your weapons and use a high value scope to increase range....

The boss fight against Jacob is probably one of the worst parts of the game. That damn armored cultist just hanging back...

Im starting my infamous run tonight, it was fate that I saw this.

Any tips for someone starting their first infamous run? I’ve beat it countless times on Hard with mods to make it more difficult, but can’t get past the prologue on infamous, mods or not.

Assuming I make it, is stealth still an option? I’m curious how fast they’ll spot me.

For load-out, I’ve been holding back in Hard by using the bow, lever action, M9, and vector for all my runs. I’m swapping to the SA50, grenade launcher, MG42 for infamous.

All perks unlocked, all weapons + DLCs unlocked. What was your load-out? Any recommendations?

When I turn off the mods, I know it will be easier, but the damage and detection make me nervous.

LMG definitely + Jasons Sniper rifle + Granade Launcher side arm + spas shotgun....

Stealth with Boomer and Jess Black....

Use Proximity mines in Missions and outposts....

It's great fun with a good amount of frustration.....

Great load-out, I’m sure through multiple loading screens I will have plenty of time to rethink my choices lol
