You're parachuting over the island of Panau, as you've done countless times before. This time, however, you're not alone: the sky is full of chutes. Planes streak by, wildly firing at each other, while a crowd of people with grappling hooks all try to hijack the same helicopter. On the ground, two dozen limousines careen past in the midst of a race around an airport. The Just Cause 2 Multiplayer Mod doesn't boast a server of 24 or 36 players, but hundreds, potentially thousands, all in the same game at once. Panau, already a ridiculous place, just got truly nuts.
In the Just Cause 2 Multiplayer Mod , there are no NPCs on Panau. No enemy soldiers, no AI citizens. There are just other players, and the first time I joined the server, there were over 1,200 of them. On the same server. On the same map. At the same time. Naturally, it's utter chaos, and far more chaos than even Panau is used to. Planes and choppers fill the skies and cars, trucks, motorcycles, and tanks fill the streets. Respawning takes place in the air, so players are constantly parachuting in, guns are always firing, and the sound of explosions in the distance is nearly constant. Plus, everyone has a grappling hook.
Can you grapple onto a moving vehicle and hijack it? Yep, just like in single-player. However, since the driver is another player, they can do the same thing right back, leading to some comical business as you and the driver and possibly several other players desperately try to commandeer -- and re-commandeer -- the same vehicle over and over again. Speaking of vehicles, if driving around at top speed isn't fast enough for you, holding shift will give you a boost -- such a boost your land-based vehicle may eventually launch itself into the air and fly across the map.
Besides committing acts of random violence on strangers, is there anything else to do? Sure! Press T to open the typing tool, then type '/race'. This will add you to the racing queue, and when it's full, you'll be automatically transported to the starting line of the next available race. With over a thousand players bouncing around the server, it takes just a few moments to gather enough players, and the race, when it begins, is almost always stocked with dozens of people.
Sometimes it'll be a 30 person motorcycle race where the first gate is at the top of a nearly sheer cliff. Another race is on a tiny figure-eight course on solid ice, meaning tons of skidding and crashing and head-on collisions where the track crosses itself. There's even a skydiving race, from the Mile High Club to the ground.
Not able to pin to taskbar windows 10. Winning races, killing other players, and sometimes even dying will result in you earning a little money to spend with the mods' Buy Menu (used by pressing B). There you can purchase vehicles -- planes, choppers, boats, or land vehicles -- which will immediately appear with you inside them. You can use the same store to buy weapons and gear, and your money will carry over between gaming sessions.
I don't know how often this will happen in the future, but while I was on the server, Woet (one of the JC2MP developers) made himself the subject of a massive manhunt. “I'm in the snowy mountains,' he announced. 'First one to kill me gets 1,000,000.' Tracking down a single player in the massive world of Just Cause 2 seems like an enjoyable, possibly epic quest, but in truth, with nearly 1,300 players, many of them in jets, all of them money-hungry, it took only a minute or so for Woet to be killed. A bounty system would be a great regular feature, though, drawing players in from all corners of the massive map one a singular mission to hunt down a lone players.
While you tend to spawn in the vicinity of other players, you can occasionally find yourself stranded far from anyone else with no transpiration and no money to buy a new ride. Luckily, you can teleport to a busy spot by typing '/tp airport' (or the name of whichever spot you'd like to visit.)
During my time on the server, the fewest amount of players I saw was around 500, and the highest was about 1,400. And while there can be a bit of lag from time to time, for those kinds of numbers it's actually been a pretty smooth experience. One thing I could do without is the global chat: it's spammy, full of horrible people saying terrible things, and with hundreds of people all using it at once, the text scrolls by too fast to be useful anyway.
Installation : The mod is scheduled to officially launch on Monday, December 16th. It's on Steam , so you can install and launch it like you would any other Steam game.
Just Cause 2 Multiplayer Mod

Overall the Just Cause 2 Multiplayer Mod is a top quality mod and is very much worth your attention. If you don't own Just Cause 2, I would argue buying it solely for this mod is worth it. There is nothing quite like it

I think all people who played Just Cause 2 had fantasies of a multiplayer mode being made. The idea of surfing planes into the ocean with a friend was just an awesome thing to imagine. So everyone was delighted and surprised when it actually happened. All my fantasies of having extreme bus races with another person were realised, and more.

The game play is practically identical to the original game, with all the parachuting, grappling and car surfing all working in the exact same way. As I said before the biggest difference is really just the fact that you get to play with other people. The shenanigans you can get up to in the Just Cause 2 Multiplayer mod are beyond anything I personally have seen in a multiplayer game. The custom commands implemented by each individual server are one of the biggest gameplay differences and also half the fun of the mod. For example the command ‘boost’, which adds upwards of 300kmph worth of forward momentum in all sea and land vehicles, causing them to gain so much speed they start flying. Me and my friends have had endless fun ‘flying’ boats across the map and attempting to land them in the ocean unscathed.
The game is also very organic. By that I mean that new ideas for custom game modes, cool stunts and things to do in general spring up by themselves, the game doesn’t have to give you ideas. Being in the massive sandbox world with guns and vehicles at your disposal is easily enough to keep you entertained for ages. The servers are going to keep getting more and more interesting as new ideas are implemented onto each server. The gameplay is just as fun as the normal game with the added bonus of playing with others and added commands. The only thing I would like added is maybe the ability to play some of the story missions with friends, however this is up to the individual servers. Overall the Just Cause 2 Multiplayer Mod is really fun and enjoyable.
The graphics are very beautiful and run really well for mow much the game needs to render at any one time. It’s truly a sight to behold as you fly over the green forests in a bus watching the world rush by. The game does begin to chug a little more than just the original game due to the additional players. It’s one thing for the game to drop some frames when just one player is surfing a jumbo jet into the ocean, but when 15 other players are doing the same thing, you can expect some performance issues. In the way of music there is nothing really to talk about at all. To be honest it’s a bit unfair to judge a mod on not having top notch music, or any music at all.
The beauty of this mod in my opinion, is how every time you play it’s a different experience. You can be having a chaotic gun fight at the airport one game, and a demolition derby the next. This mod truly has an incredible lifespan and will keep you entertained for hours. I highly recommend getting playing this mod with some friends as well, it make the various mischief you can get up to a lot more fun.
Overall the Just Cause 2 Multiplayer Mod is a top quality mod and is very much worth your attention. If you don’t own Just Cause 2, I would argue buying it solely for this mod is worth it. There is nothing quite like it. The organic gameplay, incredibly fun game mechanics and a thriving community make this one of the best mods around.
The Just Cause 2 Multiplayer Mod is available on Steam through purchasing Just Cause 2.
The Just Cause 2 Multiplayer mod we’ve previously covered has recently managed to amass 1300 simultaneous players.
The mod is a beta at the moment, albeit a very popular beta with 10,000 forum users currently registered.
If we were to take an educated guess as to why the mod’s been so popular then we’d probably hazard that it’s due to the absolute madness players would expect (and are indeed experiencing) playing the already over-the-top game in multiplayer. The size of Just Cause 2’s map (huge) lends itself well to becoming massively multiplayer and its range of vehicles helps provide some rather manic entertainment.
The Just Cause 2 multiplayer beta only opens up from time to time, so keep an eye on the official site and Twitter feed if you’re dead set on getting a chance to have a go.
