Mercenaries 2: World in Flames

@ above posters pic, wonder why ** ground is blured as mine is much more detailed tho does blur off at a distance. I will get a pic to compare.

Edit update:



Got the game.

The textures are ok but it needs antriscopic filtering on but u cant force it on. :(
AA needs to be fixed its awful with no aa even at 1600x1200.
Need fix for 1280x1024 for my 19" crt tho i guess i could use size options on my crt so doesn't look stretched.
I cant have a steady hand when zooming in with the girl and firing zoomed shots at ppl at the start WTF is up with that its supose to be more accurate not less.
Bad guys at start died with 1 or 2 shots. :(
I found that the shader files are messed up there using low and wont work with full.
Explosions are nice. :)
Waters detailed but not that nice looking to me.
Slow fps given the games quality on my system.

Hope a patch does fix this stuff.

BUG FIXES:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• When the user sets the shader level to low in the options menu, the user can set the shaders back to high
again.
• The user can now cancel a contract by using a controller.
• The user can set the volume levels to high and low using the mouse properly now.
• When the user fails to find another player using "Custom Match" the menu options function normally.
• Joystick sensitivity now operates as designed.
• Adjusting the view distance from the main menu functions properly now.
• The user can no longer create accounts using "spaces" in their names, thus allowing them to search online for
names properly.
• Paper animations have been removed from the game.
• All common 16:9 and 4:3 resolutions are now available.
• ****NOTE: DVI Cable connections will only return a limited number of resolutions****
• Default brightness now works when selecting the "Default" setting.

lol i was like that with the first tank bit!...then decided to play it with a my 360 pad and then it showed you what to press :p
 
WTF! :mad:, what wrong with this game, its driving me insane,
i have been trying to do this mission all day, were u put listening mic or something and u ment hijack this red armor truck,
these icon appears i dont know what to press, i have tried every key, im going crazy. anyone know what key i ment to be using.

Got a picture of the icon?

Most of the key presses required are Reload, Jump and whatever F does (can't remember)

This is the only game that ever made me mad, i just got rid of it, i felt like smashing my keyboard.

I know on one of the Jet mini-missions, where you have to use the laser target for dropping bombs to get 100 points my keyboard hit the ground several times! I mean it's supposed to be laser guided, so why the hell does it not land anywhere near the target I assigned?!?

Got it in the end, but still bugs me.
