OT Anyone playing Far Cry 2

Post by Seaking »

Yep I know this is not really the place to post this but thought I would try. Is there anyone out there
playing Far Cry 2 please. I'll see if there are any answers first before I post my question.

Any help is appreciated

I'm playing it :) Not as much as I would like though, I've only done about 12% of it so far.

Ok so here's my prob, I"m in act 3 and just killed a coupla dudes as a mission, after that it tells
me to meet Rueben at the marina bar, so I get there and as you know you open the doors when the wee
hand comes up.
Just this time you can't open either door lol.....there's no-one there, I've sat there and waited for 10 mins still nothing
if either of you know of anyone else playing it that's at where I am, I would love to know what to do as I can't go any
further. One I flash it up again I can give you a more precise where I am in the game.

Thanks

Hi,

I was thinking about this game but got put off when I saw reviews about problems activating the software. Anyone get any issues regards this ?

Regards

Done it end to end on the hardest difficulty level, I found it rather disappointing. It's in no way as groundbreaking as the original Far Cry was and I'm afraid it's just average when stacked up against the likes of Crysis.

Fallout 3 on the other hand, now there is a game well worth playing and it's currently sucking all of my spare time. I'd recommend Dead Space as well. Avoid Red Alert 3, it's the final nail in the coffin of a series that hasn't been good since EA took over Westwood.

Here ends my take on Novembers games. :lol:

I got this game free with my new PC, I might give it a whirl though I doesn't appeal like COD does.
