I have real trouble grabbing the soldiers in Crysis with a 360 pad. I can be right next to them, but the HUD never displays "grab enemy" except for about 1 soldier in 10.

I can get right up next to them and jab the X button all I like, and nothing happens except I get shot and killed :p

Seemed to be much easier using KB+mouse.
 
I don't think it's the fact that you're on a pad, I think it's just really bad at registering it or you have to be almost exactly center on. I have trouble grabbing enemies too with a mouse/kb and often end up running around them twice before it registers/icon appears.


(why are you playing crysis with a pad though!)
 
Yeh it's hard to grab them regardless of controls.
FYI I completed both games on the 360 pad - don't normally do it on pc but I found it much easier then kb for the talents etc...of course shooting was rubbish but I got by. :)

Just take your time, use cloak and walk slowly as the faster you move the more it drains. Recharge by crouching and hiding putting in armour mode then continue. Always climb up towers etc and pick people off from them when in camps

It's just annoying me atm that the only viable way of killing on Delta is to abuse the hell out of cloak.

Ie de-cloak head-shot re-cloak, ad-infinitum.

I have tried all the way through the game to get into open firefights, throw barrels, etc, but it's just impossible when it only takes a single burst of Korean gunfire to kill you.

But that's the trouble. With cloak (abuse) game is too easy, without cloak (abuse) game is too hard :/

Getting in a vehicle is a death-sentence too... which means all I can do is run around cloaked. Gets boring.
