Duck'n'cover!

That's all the game had to offer... Got boring extremely fast.
What I hated the most, was that when loading a saved game, the guy mysteriously lost all the weaponry. Only shotgun with few bullets, no grenades, nothing...

Dude, no joke. What seriously numbnut motherfucking dumbshit designer came up with this shit???

I restarted a level where you're seriously outnumbered and outgunned, and they're launching RPGs at you that you can't avoid...and all I'm left with is a POS shotgun with 8 rounds, which is useless anyway since all the enemies in this level are totally out of range without sneaking up closer and getting your ass blown off by RPGs...and no grenades?? It's as if the stupid game wants you to finish it at one sitting, forget about quitting and restarting the level...there doesn't seem to be any way to backtrack and reload the levels until you've beaten the game at least once (which unlocks all the levels). I've never seen anything quite this retarded in any games I've played until now.

I'd like to kick the teeth out of the keyboard pounding dumbfuck idiot responsible for allowing this major flaw in the game. And of course, there aren't any cheats for this POS either to get through the level in question.

No wonder I don't buy games anymore.

Yep, that's a really stupid thing for a dev to do. I don't understand what they tought to them selfs.I guess you'll have to play a whole chapter before quiting.That way all your weapon will remain at the start.

Well the pisser here is that I'm on the final level, and can't complete the game. Maybe I suck, but trying to take on all those dudes with a measly shotgun with 8 rounds and 4 flash grenades is no picnic. The guys in the tower keep hammering me with RPGs, even when I'm hiding behind a box. Pretty stupid, I got through the whole game only to get stuck on the very last level because of a really dumb design flaw.

Mmm, I've got an idea and maybe it would work.
If you quit a game to main menu, you will have an option Select Mission.Try selecting your mission, and only maybe you'll get the original weapon arsenal.

Thanks for the suggestion, but that doesn't work.

For one thing, the only missions you can select if you haven't finished the game already are the previous completed missions, not the current unfinished mission. I guess it's better than nothing though, as long as you don't quit the game before you've reached the point where you left off.

It's amazing how devs can ruin a game with stupid little flaws like this.

I've been to the forums, and it seems we are blaming the devs for nothing.
The bug with all weapons going away, is a crack bug not a game bug.

I came to this conclusion last night, that it's a bug of some sort. I started the level I had been stuck on, and lo and behold I had an additional weapon that wasn't available before. I noticed this in another level, where at one point only the default weapon and ammo amount was available, then started the same level again and the weapons came back.

I still fault the devs though for the crappy savegame system. Another complaint I have is the ridiculous number of start-up screens you have to watch (5 of them), and there doesn't seem to be a way to bypass them, that I'm aware of anyway.
