I found Far Cry 2 extremly boring you are always boxed in between two mountains, or in the desert. And when you looked at one desert you looked at them all. Missions are placed just to push more time out of the game. Being at furthest opposite side from you, so you have to drive and then take the bus and it still takes like 15min to get there and then you spend same amount of time going back for new missions. All enemy's have thermal sensors and optic vision after they spotted you they will shoot you no matter where you hide. Respawning camps were a terrible idea. The cars are painfully slow.
And the game just feels extremly slow, dull and closed environment compared to speed and action of Crysis, Crysis Warhead for instance.
I was playing FARCRY 2 over the weekend and my conclusion is simple: THIS GAME IS RETARDED, gameplay is RETARDED, using weapon is RETARDED, enemys are anoying. Game has so many bug and gliches that at some times I felt like playing beta version or something. I've killed one guy with the pistol (it took whole clip to take him down) and body was magicaly levitating 5ft above the surface of the road. Other time after finishing some mission given at cell tower, all objects, droped weapons, pices of wood and metal even bodies were rolling due north (wtf??). Enemys are standing in the air.
There is no war in that game just everyone want to kill YOU.
You have one RETARD buddy which can help you when you get killed and the he needs your help like 20 times.
Traveling around take so much time (80h of gameplay - 72h traveling 4h loading and 4h actual gameplay).
And those respawing guard posts (like in very old video games were mobs respawn when you left the map and enter it again)
Side missions for arms dealer always happen on the corners so you will have close from the bus (wtf??)
Lack of balance in weapons. Shooting model reminds me the one from Time Shift. One shot enemy is leaning back, second shot enemy is geting cripeled/falls on the ground, third and fourth he dies (exeption with sniper rifle and head shots)
And the biggest dissapointment is multiplayer. Very small maps. No co-op. Imbalance of weapons escalates even more. Obviusly no headshots take into the accound for some guns. (shot one guy in head with two bursts 2-shot and 3-shot and he was still alive, the other one was shot by me with SVD in chest 5 times and survived).
Except of a very good graphics there is noting that will convice me to buy that game, thanks GOD I've rented it.
