This game is not for people who can't play strategically or need their hand held. Simple as. I'm currently playing through this game on Infamous difficulty. It's brutally unforgiving, but that's the point. The realism and the challenge factor. One common mistake people make when playing FC2 is using the roads. Travel by boat whenever possible. The waterways are much less patrolled. This is especially true on higher difficulties. Also, the bus system can usually get you fairly close to your current objective. Going on foot is safest and will net you alot of hidden diamonds. Stealth absolutely does work in this game but it's largely based on light level, cover, and LOS. The camo suit and silent makarov are your best friends.

100%, definitely a game that tries to grind you down. I enjoyed how challenging stealth was, no radar to keep track of anyone or other UI to help us out. It made it extremely rewarding sneaking into a base undetected, very tense too

Vigilante mission: There is a hidden "FBI Cheetah" on west island. You can recognise this car by having only one side mirror, easy to find, just google it. Have that car and start Vigilante mission. From now on, you got super fast car and you can repair it whenever you want. Vigilante mission becomes ultra easy. Hope this helps.

It's not that game company don't know how to make serious games, it's just the audience for them is gone. PC players were serious gamers, the selection was limited. Everything is a multiplayer co-op battle royale because COUNTER-STRIKE took over the market. It has nothing to do with the failure of Fallout, or Metro, or FarCry, but with the rise of Overwatch and Siege and Fortnite. Once you play Spec Ops: The Line, what more do you want? Spec Ops: The Line 2? 3? 4? 5 DLC and BATTLE PASS? The multiplayer for that and Max Payne 3 was seen as such a farce. But Left 4 Dead was and IS still brining in constant players, keeps the servers open, and will sustain the companies longer than having to make the next sequel to their next game to their next paycheck. The serious games still exist, you just cannot expect every game coming out to be the next sleeper gem forever. Hades 2 is coming out for people like you, may you game forever!

I wouldn’t advise anyone to play this game. The degraded gun mechanic is a nightmare, always at the worst time. Then it’s just driving back and forth for ages around the same lookalike boring landscapes. And to add to it you have to keep curing yourself from malaria! Respawning outposts. Annoying map. The fire mechanic is cool though. This is an outrageous review. Far Cry 2 is terrible. It was rubbish then and even more shit now.

Malaria is a non issue, it just encourages you to go back and get more pills, side quests and encourages you to traverse back and forth. The instant respawn of guardposts though, that is a major issue, need to mod that out. Also the broken stealth is an issue too, even the ghilly suit doesnt help.

I didn't mention it in the review, but Far Cry 2s lukewarm reception was a big factor in the development of FC3. Ubisoft wanted to make something with a broader appeal that focussed more on fun. Makes sense, but it's sad we've ended up with the same FC game over and over since then

I remember playing Far Cry 2 on PS3, connected to a shitty tube TV that could never do it's graphics justice. A nice game, but it was a bit too much ahead of it's time. Today, people would love it's plotting pace in a world where boring, every now and then interactive "works of art" like RDR2 and TLOU are heralded as masterpieces by fart sniffers. Far Cry 2's gameplay is actually fun, (when it doesn't artificially slow you down) though.
@channel458538 күн бұрын
That's because Rdr2 and TLOU are fun, asshole. Just because you don't like them, doesn't mean you have to be a dick. But it seems like a tall order to demand of gamers, especially ones who fanboy over dated games from 2008.

It's clearly a super masterpiece, you'd be crazy not to agree. 10 out of 10 hands down. An honest review of GTA5 is 9 out of 10 for me. The story was kinda bleh, and the fact you changed characters all the time etc was just not fun. How many times have you beat 4 and how many times have you beat 5? xD
