You can't say you dislike Far Cry 3 but like Gayrim lol.

Yeah, Skyrim as a game is more enjoyable for me, FarGay 3 is boring for me. I'm not into most of these modern FPS tbh.

YEAH who was it who QQ'd like all other did lol. Same with Black Ops 2. You can't judge a book by its cover  :P
Didn't I just write that I was wrong? What do you want?! :(

I still think that everything after MW1 was repetitive bullcrap... and yes, except for BLOP2 I actually played them at least half the campaign.

I played this at my friend's place, and got to the Flamethrower part.. and played a bit more.

It's quite obvious which subculture/age group is the target audience of this game..

The music, the drugs..  :lol:

I feel old.

Playing it with bow only like a badass. Seriously, though, this game is too fucking easy. I haven't even bothered to unlock anything but the bow related stuff, jungle run and some takedown shit and I play it without medicine cause I can't be arsed and still I am not having a hard time on the hardest difficulty. Yet I like playing it, pretty well made.

Those camps with a HMG with 360 turn radius are just silly. Sneak to the gun, hold LMB, do a 360 and the camp is cleared.

You get extra points/xp for being "invisble" though...

Oh, god, i haven't played FC3 yet, but if that is true...

Seriously, fuck that, it is what made DE: HR crap: Make it possible to complete stuff in various ways, then pigeonhole the player into doing the dull (and easy) "stealth" approach by means of XP/points bonuses (that are so huge, that you really need to play the game that way, if you want to unlock skills and shit)... :mad:

One should combine stealth with hit and run tactics.

Why? It's more fun&effective that way, I managed to lure a lot of guards away, knifed two, then started trolling the rest and they moved to one spot, and I ended their lifes with a single grenade. We are talking about.. 6 guards here.

No reason to be 100% stealthy, you can't pull that off anyway, you have to pull the trigger sometimes even if you don't want to, or else you die.

This game seemed to be very easy though, compare this "hard" mode with Far Cry 1's hardest mode.. that one gives me nightmares still.

Actually, full stealth is the more difficult approach so getting a bonus for it is just fine.

What would do I do with more upgrades if the game isn't already that hard?

This is like playing Splinter Cell, Metro2033, or Hitman, and then getting pissed when you are supposed to be sneaky. Not every game that has guns is call of duty. In this game you are some young douche from california who probably pissed and shat himself at least twice in the opening sequence of the game, or the events leading up to it. You are not supposed to be someone who knocks people out with the weight of their ballsack and deflects bullets with proper use of their chest hair. Not until later at least.

Also, play on hard mode for once. Bullets hurt.

Splinter Cell and Hitman ARE meant for stealth, metro is a lot easier if you use stealth.

Totally different games.

Far Cry should be free on choice however you prefer unlike splinter cell and hitman. (Well in hitman you have choice too.)

Thing is it doesn't matter. As number 1. You got to do more singleplayer missions to unlock newer talents.

And number 2. Gaining new skill points to spend at is easy.

Way to miss the point by a kilometer.

Call of Duty is a mindless shooter on rails, completely unrelated.

These sort of games are supposed to let you play them however you want (or see fit). If you are "supposed" to play sneaky, then make it so by use of making it either super difficult to play it any other way or by means of objectives. Not by means of discriminatory XP/point rewards. Giving twice as much XP or whatever for a stealth kill is outright retarded.
See: Deus Ex, the original vs Deus Ex: HR.

Anyway, i was just commenting on the principle, since i haven't yet played FC3 (as i said already).
