Other changes include the introduction of the ‘chaos’ system, which quantifies the destruction you unleash upon the property of the fictional east Asian island of Panau and its dictatorial regime. Accumulate enough chaos and you unlock new weapons and vehicles for purchase on the game’s black market, new side missions, and further developments along the game’s main storyline. It should be an effective way of making sure the ad-hoc carnage at which the game excels genuinely contributes to your overall progress, but it’s let down by the fact that the bars representing the chaos you’ve caused fail to move along at any meaningful rate. There’s something disappointing about finding your spontaneous and thoroughly destructive assault on a military complex has had little to no effect on the infrastructure of Panau, and there are times when trying to unlock the next storyline mission can feel more like grinding for experience points in an MMORPG than racing to the next chapter of a breathless action thriller. Eventually you’ll realise the only meaningful way to progress in the game is to take part in one of the many side missions offered by the various criminal factions based on the island.
