Easy stunt points

At the entrance of Panau International Airport, get the sports car, drive it to a runway, and wait for a plane to appear. Go into stunt position, and attach the car to the plane with the grappling hook. Enter the car, and the plane will take off with the car in tow. You will accrue stunt points quickly as long as the grapple is not released.

Drive a fast car or motorcycle on a highway or long road while dodging traffic in the correct lane. Alternately, drive as fast as possible down the middle of the road.

Easy rocket launcher and ammunition

Go to X:20443, Y:31188 coordinates to find an easy place to keep respawning the rocket launcher and ammunition for it. Grab the rocket launcher in the temple. There are also five small boxes in the building to the right of the temple. Destroy all five boxes to spawn another rocket launcher. Then, use your grappling hook and parachute to go a little ways away from the area (you may have to leave the island). Go back to the area now, and the rocket launchers should have respawned. Repeat this as many times as desired.

Easy C4 and grenades

Go to X:17342, Y:4196 coordinates to find an easy place to keep respawning C4 and grenades. Grab the C4 and grenades on the lower deck by the water.

Easy landings without parachute

IGN_Strategize Tips

Weapon of Choice

There are a lot of guns to choose from in Just Cause 2. Pistols, shotguns, automatic weapons, explosives: you'll find all of these plentifully available throughout the game. That said, how many of them are actually useful is up for debate. As a rule, most of the pistols are useless unless you have no other choice. The standard 9mm that many guards carry packs little punch and the Magnum, though powerful is painfully slow. Similarly, shotguns are limited in their practicality. Even at point plank range it will often take more then one shotgun blast to kill an enemy, and your ammo is generally more limited with that class of weapons. The game's two shotguns (sawed-barrel and assault) aren't bad, but they aren't that great either.

Generally speaking, your best options are the two assault rifles and the sub machine gun. The assault rifles pack a heavy punch and are accurate at long range and close range, even while firing in bursts. The sub machine guns are devastating at close range, especially when dual-wielded. They'll eat up ammo fast, but your enemies probably won't mind you looting their corpses for ammo. The sniper rifle is also a good option, but only for long range.

You generally always want to have explosives on hand as well. Though their usefulness against enemy soldiers is limited, grenades and demolition charges are great for chewing up vehicles and structures. The rocket launcher is also good for that purpose, but unfortunately, it's actually pretty hard to use against infantry and it takes up your only two-handed weapon slot.

Appetite for Destruction

Wherever you go, whatever you do, you should constantly be keeping your eyes out for to destroy. Destructible structures aren't hard to spot. They're generally red and marked with a white star, indicating government property. That said, if you have heavy weapons guard towers are also destructible. Advancing in Just Cause 2 requires you to destroy stuff, so you should never pass up an opportunity to do so. Whether you're on a mission and happen to pass some tasty looking fuel depots, or are just cruising down the highway and happen to spot a gas station, you should never pass up a chance to blow things up.

Grappling is Your Friend

Your grappling hook is probably your best friend. You can use it for transportation, to climb and even for combat. In short, it's the swiss army knife of Just Cause 2. Point in case, find yourself in a remote region and without transport? You can use your grappling hook to slingshot into the air and glide about with your parachute. Need to scale a wall? The grappling hook can propel you over it in seconds! Out of ammo? Use your grappling hook to pull enemies from guard towers, or even just melee them to death. When all else fails you, the grappling hook is always there.
