Far Cry Trivia

1. What group on the Rook islands helped Jason (the player character) against Vaas?

From Quiz "Far Cry 3" Single Player

Answer: The Rakyat

There were a few factions on the Rook islands. The Rakyat were the natives of the islands, and were being harassed by foreign forces. When Jason came to the island, they recruited him and started to take back their island. On the north islands, Vaas' pirate thugs ran the outposts. On the south island, Vaas' boss, Hoyt Volker subjugated the Rakyat with his private military company. The United States of America was barely seen on the island. They had a CIA agent who helped guide Jason's efforts against Vaas, but no strong or noticeable military presence. Most of the privateers working for Hoyt Volker were American, though.

Answer: Green

There were many different plants that Jason could collect on the islands, but they were all divided into one of five different types: green, red, amber, blue, and white. Green herbs were usually associated with healing, red with combat, amber with hunting, and blue with exploration. More complex syringes required different colours of leaves to be mixed together. White leaves were components in the most expensive and advanced syringes.

Answer: Grant, Jason's brother

Jason came to the Rook islands on a skydiving trip with his brothers, Riley and Grant, and their friends Liza, Daisy, Oliver, and Keith. At the beginning of the game, Jason and Grant were in Vaas' prison together. Grant managed to break free using his army training, and the brothers made their way through the camp. Grant taught Jason a few tricks about stealth during this tutorial. Just before they could escape, though, Vaas shot Grant in the neck. Jason tried to save his brother, but could not prevent him from bleeding out. Jason then had to flee from Vaas' guards. Jason's mission then became to save his friends and younger brother, and to make Vaas pay for killing Grant.

Answer: Four

For realism's sake, the game limits your weapons loadout to four rather than an unlimited number of guns. This limitation requires you to plan ahead. Should you keep the sniper rifle or the rocket launcher?

Answer: Activating radio towers

There were quite a few optional components in "Far Cry 3" that could be completed for better and better rewards. Activating the radio towers around the Rook islands would reveal areas of the map and would make it easier for vendors to bring wares in from outside. As a token of their appreciation, they would make new weapons available for free. Jason could purchase any weapon or just activate enough towers until the desired weapons were free. Attachments and custom paint jobs still had to be purchased separately. Activating a radio tower would also unlock a Supply Drop side quest. Gathering collectables such as relics, memory cards, and letters of the lost would unlock special weapons and new syringe recipes. Taking over enemy outposts would give Jason new fast travel locations, make the surrounding area free of enemies, and would unlock Path of the Hunter and Wanted Dead side quests. "Far Cry 3" had a full working version of Texas Hold'em Poker that Jason could play to earn more money. It even became a plot point later on.

Answer: Dr. Earnhardt's mansion

Dr. Earnhardt was an Englishman with a tragic past. He moved to the Rook islands and took up drugs as an escape. He was an excellent craftsman of narcotics and remedies, and saved Daisy after she escaped from Vaas. His mansion was high on a mountain at the north-west corner of the Rook islands. He let Jason take his friends to the cave under his mansion to keep them safe. Citra's temple was where Jason was made more familiar with the trials and rituals of the Rakyat. Amanaki Town was the town Dennis brought Jason to after Jason escaped Vaas' prison during the intro. It was the first fast travel location available to Jason.

Answer: Crafting with animal hides

At the beginning of the game, Jason was a scared tourist out of his depth. He had to become a proficient killer and learn how to survive on the Rook islands if he was going to get his friends back. To this end, Jason could take up hunting, and use animal pelts to build new slings and pockets to hold more syringes, weapons, ammunition, and ordinance. Syringes were crafted using plants. Leveling up gave Jason skill points that he could spend on new skills. There were no pack mules in "Far Cry 3".

Answer: They have a rocket launcher instead of a right arm.

The hulking "Fat Boys" have an arm that has been replaced by a rocket launcher with unlimited rounds. The smaller "monkey" mutants can leap incredible distances and the invisible mutants are not the largest types. None can run faster than Jack Carver.

Answer: Takedowns

The very first skill Jason learned was the basic takedown. If Jason could get close enough to an enemy without being detected, he could perform a takedown, where he could silently kill the enemy with his knife. As Jason gained more skill points, he could unlock more advanced takedowns, silently dispatching enemies from above and below. He could take an enemy's own knife and hurl it at another target, or pull the pin of a grenade and use his target as a stumbling time bomb.

From Quiz "Far Cry" for PC

Answer: Both

Both of these guns feature a grenade launcher in alt-fire mode. The OICW and AG36 are based on real US munitions although the OICW rounds in real life are able to burst in mid air while the game grenades explode on contact.

Answer: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

The quotes from "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" were clues to reinforce the idea that not everything on the Rook islands made sense. Very few people were completely honest with Jason, and the jungle was known to have a bizarre effect on the people who stayed there too long. The lines were also there to reinforce the idea that Jason (through whose eyes the player saw the world) might be an unreliable narrator. "Snow White" was the nickname that Vaas' pirates gave Jason.

Answer: Patrol boat and Humvee

The only two vehicles with a rocket launcher are the patrol boat and Humvee. Both of these also have a mounted machine gun. The buggy has just a machine gun and the truck, forklift, inflatable boat and glider have no weapons. One must use the alt-fire key to switch the weapon from gun to rocket launcher.

Answer: Cell phone

You pick up a cell phone with a video screen in the first level that stays with you the entire game. With it, Doyle directs you to the next objectives in each level.

From Quiz "Far Cry 3" Single Player

Answer: Knife

The Rakyat traditions focused on killing enemies with a knife. Most of Jason's takedowns used a knife to kill a target, and the Wanted Dead side quests required that a knife be used to kill the target. All the boss characters in "Far Cry 3" were killed with knives, though usually by quick time events in a cut scene rather than in the open world. The Colt 1911 pistol was the first gun Jason got in "Far Cry 3". The bow and arrow was the poster weapon of "Far Cry 3", and was excellent for stealth kills. It also had a damage bonus against animals, which made it excellent for hunting.

Answer: A red Hawaiian shirt

Jack is wearing a red Hawaiian shirt throughout the game and is sometimes referred to as "the guy in the red shirt". In the first level, Doyle tells Jack to cover his red shirt with an armored vest.
