this game does have its good points ie graphics and the GPS map (very nice!)
but when a game forces you to drive 10-20 mins, going past endlessly respawning checkpoints at every mission.... it's really detracting to the experience.
I understand the whole immersiveness and realism thing they're trying to put in, but looking at the way they were executed, it's no different than having to have to pee and eat in-game.
also did i mention how death-loving your companions are?
this game disappoints.... i played and loved fc1. but this one, tak boleh lah. i got mine as part of my graphics card bundle.... so i dont feel so much "pain" as those who paid 100+ for the game. but still kinda waste.

QUOTE(gyver @ Dec 16 2008, 11:08 AM) Is it really repetitive you guys. Do you all feel Fallout 3 also repetitive? For me Fallout 3 is not repetitive. I really like the graphics, and I love FPS in modern day scenario. I prefer to buy this over GTA 4 for my January budget. Scratching head already...  I cannot decide. FC2 is but FO3 is not  avoid gta 4 unless you can accept very low graphics while it is still buggy like crap  QUOTE(FarCry3r @ Dec 18 2008, 01:43 AM) Not all people got dizziness playing such game, but I'm certainly not one of them... same here This post has been edited by skylinegtr34rule4life: Dec 29 2008, 02:43 PM

LOL...The yellow thing is just an indicator...Yes it is the target of the mortar...So you have a couple of second to move from that area.

Getting Started

Depends on the difficulty you're playing on, take out mortars first/enemies nearby then focus on boats while often running back to get some aid.

use the mounted grenade launcher and spam it. 1 hit from mortar normally cant kill u in normal difficulty Once you get hit then hide and fix urself up and then go out blast them again

BTW I went to Cathay Cineleisure IT shop (can't remember which one) and I saw a shop selling FC2 at RM49.99 and wondered is this correct price or not since TSB selling at RM179 still. I was in a hurry so didn't have time to ask the sales person. I will be going back there this weekend to check it out. If bogus one then I'll just head to SS2 TSB afterwards.
