FARCRY 2 --- Officially , official of official threads! ---

Lol, despite the glowing reviews this game is getting a pounding from the hardcore PC crowd.

It just seems like such a wasted opportunity to me...why create such great tech, and tack on 1980s gameplay?

Because it's made for consoles really...
There is no way FC2 would be like this if it was a PC exclusive.
 
In case it hasn't been mentioned, anyone having problems with menu stuttering whilst attempting to play in Dx10 need to turn off any graphics tablet apps they have running. So far thats the only link thats been found to do with the problem, worked for me :D!
 
Does the swaying motion when running make anyone else feel queasy? im really finding it difficult to play it affects me that much... At first i thought i was being daft, so i loaded up crysis, and i was fine... back into Farcry 2, and im feel queasy again :(

Don't Run !, Stand and Fight ...You big woosh :D

Some people have all sorts of issues with games and motion, it's more common than we think just google !
 
the voice acting is nuts, they just ramble from sentence to sentence like theyre trying to fit paragraphs of words into 10 seconds or so.

Godownthehilltotheshedandfindabombtoblowupthepipeline.whileyourtherefindajeepandbringitbackhere.

This really jumped out at me as well. It's as if the developers told all of their voice actors to speak their lines as fast as they could possibly manage while remaining comprehensible.

At first I figured they must think all gamers have really short attention spans so they need to get the dialogue out of the way as quickly as they can, but if that's their belief then you would've thought they'd address the ten-minute car journey that prefaces every mission first before resorting to making all the NPCs talk like they just did a line of speed.
 
mine just arrived.

help me decide ...

sell it unopened or

install it , play it, probably agree with eveveryone and then sell it ?
 
Among a million other things this game seriously needs an anti-brown patch. Everything looks so brown and dull. They really got overly keen on the post processing brown-ness.

Sell it, then be naughty and download it! It's just about worth having for free. I wouldnt pay more than £5 for it.
 
Anyone know how to get the numpad enter key working as crouch? I have an A4Tech keyboard with the number pad on the left and use the number pad for movement with my left hand, with left CTRL as jump for my thumb, but the little pinky needs the Enter key for crouch. When I press it in the game key's settings page, nothing happens. Could I set it manually in a config file?
