Onoz, “deceptively shallow, and the trudgery, long drives” I second that! The game looked and played amazingly – it’s just a pitty it took an hour to get anywhere and there were about 5 missions just replayed over and over in different spots on the map. If I were part of the art / sound or game engine team I would be hella pissed off with the guys in charge of the missions and story.

Nobody I know has even finished Far Cry 2 due to becoming damn bored about half way through… I had to force myself to finish it, it was then that I realised the game had a really bad story and the game would probably have taken me about 4 hours if it wasn’t for all those looooooonnnnggggg :sleeping: :sleeping: :sleeping: trips between the mission areas and the gun shop. That malaria thing was also pretty retarded…. Heres to hoping they learn from their past mistakes and that they make the sequel a great game

Also the other characters always spoke as if they were in a rush, Long drives just killed the whole experience like everyone else said.

Mission were Repetitive: go in and kill some dudes maybe steal something then haul ass to next mission. and repeat, be beter if you could hire a full time teammate.

The game had pretty innovative aspects live fire propagation and plantation regrowth, fantastic
graphics.

The AI was smart but they just didn’t know how to use that intelligence.

thanks guys, i just started this game about 2 weeks ago and found it to be like GTA – IN THE BUSH, now you making me not wana play it anymore. But before reading this i already felt the game was being repetitive and i dont see any noticeable difference with the weapon upgrades. Ps i skip the long drives by taking a bus.
