But obviously,if you dumbnuts stay on one spot for 5 minutes, shooting with a unsilenced rifle at them .... but of course AI has to cheat to know where you are ... how else could he possible know ...


Indeed, even when using silenced sniper rifle from fuck far they will find You eventualy, You need to constantly change position. I'm using silenced makarov/IED's, cheapest sniper rifle and m249 incase they flank me and I wouldn't notice.

Playing on infamous is awesum, one of the games that are a must for a big challenge.

I don't know why some people think the AI is smart, they are idiots... I mean they drive around in a jeeps and if they see you or you shoot at them they just suddenly turn towards you and drive as fast as they can right at out and either ram your jeep -the gunner shoots and the driver jumps out. if your on foot they either run you over or stop right next to you doing the exact same thing.
they do the same thing every time, what they do is lame and there is nothing new, its the same thing over and over again. I never see them use cover, or do anything besides move towards me shooting, sometimes they might get on the machine gun but thats it.

I'm enjoying the game for the most part because of the graphics and it is kinda fun but it seems the devs spent their time developing a game engine rather than the game itself. the engine is wonderful, the graphics are great and runs very stable however the game is lacking depth and is very repetitive, I'm only 25% done so far so I dont know if it changes to a new area or whatever but I'll eventually finish it.

it seems this is another one of those "it could be so much more" type games. disappointing Sad

Are you serious? This is like the one bad thing about this game, draw distance is only 5m ahead. After that it's just bland. (Rolling Eyes Yes, I have set to the highest settings.)

to solve the view 5m ahead input this commands into the console, one at a time:

gfx_lodscale 0.75
gfx_SunShadowRange0 10
gfx_SunShadowRange1 30
gfx_SunShadowRange2 140

Or, if u want ur gfx card to kneel, put this one:

gfx_lodscale 0

I don't know if its already mentioned here, but there is a way to fix the "stuttering" mouse.

Open the "Gamerprofile.XML" in "My Documents" (with notepad) and search for the line "Smoothness". Standard its set to 1, change it to 0, save and gone is the stuttering.

(Note: There are also these lines: "UseMouseSmooth" (which is the same as in the game options menu) and "SmoothnessIronsight"". You can leave those alone, the "Smoothness" line alone should fix the problem.)


EDIT:

The line "GameProfile Sensitivity" controls the mouse speed. The highest you can go ingame is 1.5, but you can change it to a higher number in the file. Mine is set to 2.5.

Well, theoretically the gun could explode in your hands, if the bullet didn't leave the gun but stayed inside and exploded by air compression.

When you feel the mouse movement is jagging in-game as-well as in the main menu then my sugesstion fixes that.

But try it, if it doesn't work just replace the back-up file (which you should always make before changing any files).

And how is that a bad thing? What do You do when you see a foot soldier while You are in car without possibility to fire from it, You run him over. And the driver-gunner thingy is great aswel, this way they are maximizing damage output on You.

They use cover all the time, and there is nothing stupid about them going after You if you are popping 'em with sniper rifle.

Which sniper rifle is better? The Dragunow or that mechanical crap You get later on?(Dragunov is 10 while latter is 20 diamonds).

Sooooo yea, whenever i try to start the game, the Far Cry 2 splash screen pops up for like a second then disappears. Then after that nothing happens, the game doesn't start or anything the splash screen just disappears.. wtf?

EDIT:
FIXED.. by deleting a file called nucleus.dll in the system32 folder.

Probably the more expensive the better the weapon. At least thats would be logical since there is zero other information about the weapons.

Can't say I've had this happen. I remember reading that when they entered a car someone's map key (default 5) would change to E instead.

Perhaps you could use E or maybe even 5 to escape the evil machine guns clutches. It's probably a case of the buttons being mapped differently for different situations and them not changing properly through key settings. Just try a load of other keys that do things in game.

Yeah that's probably just the way the game is designed though. With all games like these that have tall grass and lots of trees, it's difficult to see enemies when you're on the same level or lower. Try to always start your assault from higher up, that way you remove the disadvantage or your entire vision being filled with grass.

thanks for the help

I disagree on the AI. While there is lots of random driving around encounters - Thats not really an AI issue. I find the AI to be as smart as it could be for this type of game on hard mode. When fighting in the jungle it's pretty tough as they will run around flanking you - and the dense foilage gives them cover. Many times i've been in a battle only to have a crazy motherfucker jump out from behind me and blast me with a shotgun.
