Farcry 2

I got to the next map.

Thanks everyone who made me excited about this game again. The difficulty has stepped up a bit so everything feels much more rewarding.

Also, whoever said the dart gun was awesome was right. Is there an ammo upgrade for it though?

The dart gun works so well as it is the only truly "silent" weapon. Having great fun with it. I've been sneaking about a lot. The knife also seems to be one of the most effective weapons.

Oh, also, Hang-glider? How far are you meant to be able to get with it? I tend to be shot out the sky quite quickly! Any tips?

I enoyed it but got frustrated by the sentry posts being repopulated after being cleared.

MattK, I agree, it can be a pain. I stopped clearing them after a while as...well... it doesn't make much difference!

You can usually blast through them quick enough, or sneak around.

What do you have to do to take them over anyway? It seems some just need the guards clearing and others seem to stay the same despite clearing the guards. Ideas? Do you have to tag all the health boxes or something? It feels like it sometimes.... but I am not sure?

Its most annoying when you spend several minutes clearing them and then drive past 30 seconds later and they are fully populated again.
Once scouted they should stay empty.

Far Cry 3 is coming by the way.

Not sure about the voice-over though!

Been racking up all the weapon missions on the second map as they appeal to my simple "blow thing up" taste.

Also, if you can time the grenade right you can have a truck explode and go right over your head.

Which is pretty cool.

I think the voice-over was just a guy at E3.
